8 ML He Defeats Rudolphe, With an Aver- age of Seventy-Five. vt} PREXCHMAN SCORES AN _ OPINION. Heiser Makes an Easy Victim for Sexton. ‘The twenty-second game of the billiard tournament at Cooper Institute was played yesterday afternoon, William Sexton and John Randolph Heiser being the contestants. Having won the lead Sexton selected the spot ball and made 7 in his opening essay, Heiser responded with 4, when William, with a mia- | cue, failed to count. John Randolph did not sueceod in his second trial, and his adversary compiled 18 buttons when next at the table, Heiser, foeling in good spirits, replied confidently, and before he sat down % was his contribution to his string. Another 0 for William and 2 for John’ enabled the former to begin his fifth’ inning. In much better form than he had played on Monday the balls vere gracefully moved xround the table, and then, t to the rail, the nursing process was be- They were quickly rolled down the side gun, cushion, when, coaxing them out of the corner, a trip the extent of the bottom rail was made, and so on until 113 was the marker’s call, The nest was then broken. The player added 15 more, and retired with 128 The score stood— Sexton, 153; Heiser, 28. Randolph materially the difference in his fifth’ essay, as, working with more thoroughness than ke had before displayed in public efforts, the result was a contribu- tion of 79. Sexton was thus only 48 the best of the struggle. Minor additiens carried the contest to the eleventh trial for each, when the buttons stood 217 to 130 in favor of William. } NO ENTHUSIASM. A lukewarm house up to this point looked upon the game. Devoid of especial brillianey, except in the fairly earned long run of Sexton, there was noth- ing to cause enthusiasm. When twenty innings had been played the score had the aspect of a moderate amateur competition. “It makes me sick,” said Heiser, ‘he figures were almost enough to *sveaken” a man of only moderate physique, as the record was 281 to 156 in favor of Sexton, Heiser pulled himself together in the twenty-third inning and moved 13 on the string. He did much better shortly after, and pusied boldly toward Sexton's figures witha run of 126 points. When he failed to count one of the platform spectators groaned so loud that the house was convulsed with laughter. ‘The buttons now stood Sexton Heiser 302, From tisis time on John Zandolph was “all ct sea,” while Sexton, drawing steadily away and making a series of brilliant open shots, won almost as he pleased in the thirty-ninth inning 33 points.

FOURTH ANNUAL EXHIBITION OF THE COLUM- BARIAN SOCIETY AT THE AQUARIUM, ‘ The fourth annual exhibition of the National Co- lumbarian Society was begun yesterday morning at the New York Aquarium under the most favorable auspices, and with every promise of success. For- merly exhibitions of this kind were of interest only to comparatively few people, What are terméd “fancy pigeons” were appreciated mainly by the breeder or the importer, but since the ‘Annual Show” has been in operation the general public seems to haye become awakened to the beauties of the manifold varieties exhibited. Between 1,200 and 1,500 birds have been gathered together from various parts of the country, and, although classed under the general head of pigeon, so varied are their forms, plumage and characteristics that the casual visitor would suppose that many of them belonged to dis- tinct species. : ‘They all come, however, from the “rock pigeon” of Europe, the blue rock being noted among pigeon shots for its rapidity of flight from the trap. The main points of difference in the birds are in the form and sizeof the bill, the plumage of the head, the cartilagineous eye, wings and covers of tho nostrils, the crop, the size, form, order and color of their feathers, the length and piumage of the feet, the power of flight, the bones of the head and numerous internal organs. BIRDS OF FEATHER. There are thirty-eight classes of birds arranged in cages, s0 that the visitor has not the slightest diffi- culty in noting the points of interest in each class. ‘The most numerous are the pouters and carriers, the greatest interest, from a money point of view, cen tring in the latter. The pouters, however, never fail to draw acrowd, They are larger than the ordi- nary pigeon, dignified in bearing for a time, until suddenly they become puffed up, as it were, at some fancied insult, and then they swell out to within an inch of the bursting point. The other va- ricties consist of owls, barbs, short-faced tumblers, trumpeters, fantails, turbits, swallows, jacobins, priests, magpies and nuns (the latter being placed in a row), Antwerps, bald heads, beards, runts, Berlins, starlings, spots, énells, moor caps, ices, frill backs, archangels, breasters, shew Antwerps and others, ARISTOGRATIC FOREIGNERS. While the home bred birds entered for the numer- ous prizes offered by the society absorb the interest of those directly connected with breeding there aro some choice specimens of foreign birds which at- tract no little attention. There are three pairs of “Antwerp Homings,” imported by Mr. L. Waefelaer, which have a record of having flown home from dis- tances varying from three hundred to six hundred miles. A pair which had found their way from Rome to Antwerp are on their way here, but it is feared will not arrive before the exhibition closes. The Nicobar pigeon is a rarity exhibited by Mr. Charles Reiche for the first time in this country. It has plumage like a parrot, a long collar or mane, and can inake faster time, not thro' the airon its wings, but ou the ground on ite feet, than any other bird wr. BIRDS OF PASSAGE. About three o’clock yesterday afternoon, in ac- cordance With the programme laid down, a flight of carrier pigeons took place. Four boxes containing torty birds each were brought out on the sidewalk and the covers taken off simultaneously. The wind was blowing sharply trom the westward, but the birds roge as in one flock to the height of about one hundred feet and then separated us though seek- ing different directions. A considerable number kept together, however, and circled round and round, widening the circie as they reached a greater altitude. An immense crowd of people witnessed the flight from Broadway, and the birds certainly presented a beautiful sight as with their wings fi ing in the sunlight they circled higher and higher until finally they off to the westward, their destination being in New Jersey. Others of the birds have their homes in Albauy, Philadelphia, Baltimore and other cities, aif despatches will be sent to the Aquarium relative to their safe arrival. FORTUNES IN PIGEONS, Some of the birds on exhibition are worth almost fabulous sums, the prices mentioned below not being “fancy” but what have been actually retused by the owners. Mr, Andrew Scheld, of Brooklyn, shows the red pied pouter Centennial which took the first pre- mium at the Centennial Exhibition. He has re- eatedly refused $250 for his pet. Mr. P. C. Biegel Ess a dun carrier cock. When its mate was alive lie refused for the pair*$600, MrT. C. Gaddis, of Bal- timore, has the finest collection of short faced tumbicrs, several pairs being valued at $200 per pair. Mr. E. H. Moore, of Melrose, Mass., has a red barb, which cost $60 to import, and Mr. Crawford, the sec- Teiary of the society, exhibits a magnificent collection of African ow!s, valued all the way from $25 to $100 per pair, Ho refused $60 yesterday for a white Atrican owl only three months old. ‘The awards will be made this afternoon, but the ex- hibition will probably remain open till Saturday, SUSPECTED HIGHWAYMEN. FOUR MEN STOP ONE OF THE CARS OF THE FLATBUSH HORSE CAR LINE, As Robert Haywood, a conductor on the Flatbush avenue line of cars, was proceeding to the Fulton ferry with his car, a few minutes after twelve o'clock yesterday morning, it was suddenly stopped by four men, one of whonr seized the horses by their hoads and turned them aside, while the others proceeded.to the platforms. The only persons on the car beside the driver and conductor were three women and John Grady, the well known diamond broker. The latter wae engaged in conversation with the con- ductor at the time, while his black satchel, which contained a small fortune in the way of jewels, was ying beneath a seat in the car. ‘The driver aud con- ductor were greatly excited at the action of the men, and one of the women Grady was also warmed, ond made ® movement for his satchel, As he did so one of the mon exclaimed, “Hallo, Grady, is th.t you?’ and while the latter was replying thf man at the horses heads released his hold, and, with his companions, disappeared in the darkness. ‘The car then pro- ceeded toward the ferry, and when it arrive opposite the Tenth precinct station house, Mr. Grady, secom- panied by the conductor and driver, entered the sta- tion and informed Captain MeKellor of what had oveurred, Roundsman Barrow, with a section of officers, was immediately sent in search of the men, and succeeded in capturing them on the toad to Sheepshead Bay. 7 WHAT THE AccUM:D ALLTGR, ‘They made no resistance and expressed perfect will- ingness to go to the station house and explain their action, ‘There they gave their names and residences us follows:—Peter MeDermott, laborer, 186 Prospect sireet; James Kerrigan, pedler, 192 Johnson street; William Kelly, bartender, 48 Hudson avenue; Janv Fitzpatrick, bartender, 98 Hudson avenue, When questioned about the affair they stated that wt the time of its ocvurrence they were walking to Sheepshead Bay to settle a wager of $5.

ART STUDENTS’ LEAGUE MONTHLY EXHIBITION, ‘The Art Students’ League is progressive and wide awake in all its work, but in no part of it are these qualities more prominent than in the monthly exbi- bitions. As we have said many times before, there is always something instructive and artistically worth seeing at these displays of pictures, studies, blacks and whites, etchings and other art products, There is no repetition, Each monthly collection is totally different in character from the preceding one. ‘The exhibition last evening was viewed by a large and interested gathering, the great majority of whom could appreciate and were capable of receiving instruction from what they saw, The rooms on the floor below the life class room, where the exhibitions usually take place, were used us galleries, ‘The prin- cipal works of the collection were hung in the neatly and artistically decorated apartment which is used by the antique class, and the two adjacent rooms were filled with drawings, ‘twenty-two striking and interesting studies, by A. H. Wyant, were grouped about one of the best pic- tures he has ever painted, “Scene Near Westport Har- bor.” it is a stretch of moorland, admirable in tone, under a masterly sky, full of motion, and showing where the cumuli have broken the clear blue between and through the fleecy fragments. ‘The aparenartine is excellent and receives great yalue by the introduction of a little figure in the middle distance. Among the studies are wood interiors; yocky scenes and. bits of landscape with expressive skies, here tremulous opalescent sunsets, and there remurkable for their fine qualities of light trans- mitted through cloud masses, Near these works of Mr, Wyant were William R. O'Donovan’s bas-relicf of Mme. Blavatsky, one in bronze of Wimbridge, the artist, and his striking, incisive little bust of Winslow Homer, By these ‘was a head of Mme. Blavatsky, by Thomas Le Clear. In the same room were @ number of loans of 8, P. Avery; 4 little single figure water color by Vibert; a seriously painted and poetic head of a little girl, by Gabriel Max, superb in modelling. nad in luminous flesh tones; ‘photographs signed ‘Whistler of his ictures, “At the Piano,” “The White Girl’ and mphony in White,” which are interesting, 8 so few have secn the originals; ‘iiam M. Chase’s picture of a sad eyed girl bevry in church, noticeable for the reality of ifs pallid flesh tints, the despairing, weary look of the eyes and the rendition of tke long, thin hands; an etching of Whistler, by himself; his portrait, by Fantin, and # study of a head, by Vibert, for his picture, “The Painter's Rest,” owned by Jordan L. Mott. In the samo gallery were a few of the 163 original drawings for the illustrations in their magazines, which were loanod by Scribner & Co, The remainder were in two adjoining rooms. This collection of drawings was made up of the best of those which have appeared in this magazine, aud was exceedingly interesting. The Committee of Collection and Ar- rangement, headed by ¥. 8. Church, deserve much credit for their work. JAPANESE OUBIOS. The Obed Baxter, which arrived in this port on the 9d inst. from Japan, brought a valuable collection of Japanese articles for the cabinet of Roanoke College, Virginia, The greater part of this collection was made and. presented by Colonel and Mrs, A. C. Dunn, of Virginia, who have recently returned to this Sonne. atter a residence of ten years ing Japan. General 0, Minister of Education, on ning that Colonel Dunn was making a collection for Roanoke College begged to add the handsome gift of thirty Japanese volumes and nine boxes of minerals from the Royal Museum in remembrance of his leasant visit to the college at the commencement in 876, when he tas in this country as President of the Imperial Japanese Commission at the Centennial Ex- position, THE CRUSADES. DR. LORD ON THE ORIGIN AND EFFECT OF THE WAR WAGED BY EUROPE AGAINST ASIA IN THE MIDDLE AGES. Dr. Lord lectured on the “Crusades, or Europe against Asia,” at Chickering Hall yesterday morning. ‘The Crusades, said he, must have been the result of a widespread and extraordinary fanaticism. Popes may have fanned the Crusades, but they did not create them. Great monarchs assisted, but they were carried on by the people. At the close of the tenth century society was in a melancholy state, Feudal barons and priests shared the weaith of the nation, and squandered their sub- stance in riotous living. War, pestilence and famine raged on every hand and crime was rampant. De- spair seized upon the minds of men, and they feared that the end of the wérld was at hand. A general re- action took place from this state of affairs, and there Was a great religious awakening, so profound that we cannot account ior it by nat causes. The tavorite form of penance was by pilgrimage to sacred shrines, What place more sacred than Jerusalem! So a universal desire seized the minds of Kuropeans to visit the Old Jerusalem as a means of reaching the gutes of the New Jerusalem. When they reached Jerusalem they were fined by the Mohammedans and badly treated. They returned and told erated stories of their persecutions, Popes and bishops met and barons swore. Indignation was the universal sentiment, and there was 4 united de- sire to punish the enemies of God and rescue the Holy Sepulchre from the infidels.» The first act of the bloody war opens with a meeting of 400 Higbepe and 10,000 of the laity; multitudes shouted for the deliverance of Jerusalem. Thus began the Crusades, In a war extending over centuries we do not find one central figure like Gustavus Adolphus or Oliver Cromwell. The leaders in this wer were unequal to strategy, which makes warfare a science. ‘This bousted chivalry did not produce one general equal to Saladin. ‘What were the results of the crusades on civiliza- tion? In the first place they arrested the Mohamme- dans, Nothing but this uprising could have pre- yented the encroachments of the Turks: Second, they greatly contributed to undermine and destroy feudal power. ‘Third, they gave the people freedom and independence in commercial pursuits, and, fourth, they improved the public taste and increased the knowledge of the arts and sciences. Chivalry borrowed many of its beauties from Asia. The germs of civilization were stattered by the storms of passion through Kurope. One of the truths learned was that no nation could be conquered’ that will be true to itself. Nations can defend them- selves on their own soil against overwhelming powers. It is a monstrous crime to invade other nations even in the name of truth. Evil is ever re- buked by an overruling God. It must needs be that offences come, but woe unto him through whom they come. Five millions of men perished miserably in the Crusades. Let no one justify war, said" Dr. Lord, for it is the most atrocious crime perpetrated on this earth, MISSION WORK IN ALASKA. Rev. Sheldon Jackson delivered an address on Alaska at a mecting of the Ladies’ Bourd of Missions | held yesterday afternoon in the chapel of the Uni- versity Place Presbyterian Church, the object being to promote the establishment of a Woman's Home in Fort Wrangell. After describing the goography of the country and considering its resources Mr. Jack- son spoke ae. of the great need of Christian in- fluence, particularly among the women, and urged the necessity of pushing the work already begun of establishing missions there. He had received dur- ing the day a ietter from Mrs. A. R. McFarland, who is in charge of a school established at Fort Wrangell, containing an argent appeal for help. Between $4800 and $3,500 wore necessary for the erection of a suit- able building, and $1,000 had already been subscribed, The average cost of maintaining and educati women there, he estimated, would be about $200 a year each until they would be able, by earning some- thing with the needle or at housework, to reduce the expense, if not become self-sustaining. STRIKE OF SILK WARPERS. ‘The warpers in the milk mill of Dexter, Lambert & Co., Paterson, N. J., have struck for an advance iu wages, and formed & uniou in which they have been joined by the warpers in the milis of William Strange & Co., Pelgram & Meyer and other large manufactur- ers. Less than one hundred hands are involved at present, ‘The warpers are efilled workmen, whose places cannot be supplied by new hands, After the material already prepared up to the point where the warpers deliver it to the further processes of mauu- facture shall be used up the mill of Dexter, Lambert & Co, will shut down. The silk operatives, stimu lated by what they have learned of the present nctiv- ity in the manuiacture, are restive and fil of dinsutis- faction over the wages paid. A iigeacp reporter who visited the mill of Dexter, Lambert & Go. yoxtorday was assured that the hands who have gone ont were mak- from $2 50 to $4 a day, also tit the only diffl- culty was that the same price—thirteen ceats per 100 threads—was demanded for work on the best Italian silk, which is free from dirt and “nibs,” as that paid for work on the poorest Chinese arti The price paid for work on the Italian silk is wa cents per 10), A delegation of the strikers have waited on the mill owners, but as all wre firm it is not thought that any comproiuive will be made. PALMER DECLARED INSANE: Dr. John R, Ordroneaux, Colonel John RK. Fellows and Mr, Charles T. Waite, the commissioners ap- pointed by Judge Gildersleeve to inquire into the sanity of William L. Palmer, Jr., who on December 28 last shot and killed Officer Asa I, Furniae, of tho Fourteenth previn in the Metropolitan Hotel, held another session yesterday in the District Attorney's office. All the testimony already taken was reul over by the commissioners, after whieh hey agreed ona roport finding from the wstimony, besides athorough exuinination of the prisoner, that on the day of the shooting Palmer, the aceused, was insane aud not responsible for his actions, ‘To-day the report will ‘ve presented to Judge Gildersleeve, who, in accard- ance with the statute, will commit the prisoner to vue of the state Lunatic asylums, “~ 7 ‘uneral from the residence ot his parents, INVESTMENT OF TRUST FUNDS. CURIOUS DEVELOPMENTS BROUGHT TO LIGHT ON LONG ISLAND BY AN INVESTIGATION, In Queens county the practice with the Courts for @great many years has been to place all trust funds in the hands of the County Treasurer for investment. Usually these moneys belonged to widows and minors, The Board of Supervisors appointed a spe- cial committee some time ago to investigate the condition of the fund, and the discoveries made are not at all creditable to the officials who made the investments. The commit- tee found pieces of property on which the money loaned exceeded by a half or @ quarter its value, The investigation was thought to be neces- sary to quiet the talk thatthe moneys of the fund were being loaned as favors to politicians, In one case, in the town of Hempstead, $2,000 had been loaned on two lots of land which at no time were worth $1,000, and cannot be sold for $500 now. In this case the treasurer, who made the loan to ayoid exposure-and a lawsuit, took an assignment of the mortgage and will bear the loss, Suits have been commenced within a few days agningt G, Edward Carll, George W. Ber, and Charles A. Roe, all of them ex-treasurers who made loans, to determine the responsibility for the loss to several persons. Where loans are beheved to ‘ave been made in good faith no suits will be com- menced, as losses were to be expected, owing to the shrinkage in real estate; but in the suits commenced the contrary is believed to’ be the case, Treas- urer Roe loaned $3,500 on the James 1, Crary estate at Whitestone, and soon after re- leased to the mortgagor a portion of the property, which was mort; sea Mr, Bergen, who suc- ceeded Mr. Roe, released to the mortgagor another art of the estate, which he immediately mortgaged Be pa00t, ca chown Grins yacords, lanwiig onty 0 small portion of the estate, and part of that worth- less meadow, to satisfy the mortgage of $3,000. It was foreclosed, and the remaining property sold for $400, not enough to pay the ex , and the whole ‘amount of the investment was lost to the trust fund, ‘The bidder now refuses to take the property because the overdue taxes are more than the amount of his bid. Mr. Bergen and Mr. Roe aro sued for the amount. The suit against ex-Treasurer Carll is in the fore, closure of the hotel property of Jacob Eivens, at Ros- lyn, There had deen loa on the property by a former treasurer $7,000, and Mr. Carll took a second mortgage for $1,000, He foreclosed the first mort- gage as treasurer, without any regard to the second mortgage, and the property was sold for $4,000, leav- ing @ deficiency, ‘luding accrued interest and ex- penses, pf $5,217 46. Out of the $4,000 paid for the property the referee Mr. Carll the amount of the second mortgage, and this suit is to compel him to pay back that sum for the benefit of the persons who owned the first Portaage. The ort of the Supervisors’ special committ will © an ugly showing. SENTENCED FOR LIFE. Isaac Perlstein, who was recently convicted of arson in the first degree, for having set fire to the tenement house No, 11 Ludlow street op the night of November 10 last, was yesterday at the bar of the Court of General Sessions on motion in arrest of ‘judgment and for a new trial. It may be remem bered that the prisoner was jointly indicted with David Freeman, Charles Bernstein and Joseph Levy* for firing the premises in question in order, as was claimed, that they might receive the insurance money, tho apartments having been hired by Levy. ‘The parties had long been suspected of incendiarism, and, on the night montioned, were closely watched, According to the prosecation Perlstein, Bernstein and Freeman were seen to leave Kast Broadway with oa basket and afterward Essex street with ademijohn. The three men then entered the apartments of Levy, who was absent at the time. In about fifteen minutes the fire broke out, and on investigation it was fowmd that clothing, thor- oughly saturated with kerosene, was scattered over the floor, while several distinct and separate fires wore discovered in different parts of the room, The trial of Perlstein lasted five days, and, although eleven of the jurors were for prompt conviction, a verdict of guilty was not rendered tor two hours. ‘Che prisoner heard the announcement with stolid indifference. During the trial, and when called to the witness stand, he pretended that he could not speuk English, but Ris actions yesterday indicated a different state of facts, as saving the arguments of his counsel he frequently suggestions and listened with great earnestness to the points raised in his favor. Assistant District Attorne; posed the motion, which the Judge § stating that he had given the matter the most careful attention. Perlstein was then asked to state whether he had anything to say why sentence should not be pinneeneed: against him, He immediately rose to is feet and said he had seen Mr. Sheldon, the Fire Marshal, talking to some of the jurors and that Mrs, Perlstein had also seen him telking with them at re- cess di the trial. Tne groundlessness of the in- sinuation being apparent no reply was vouchsafed. After addressing the prisoner on the enormity of his crime Judge Cowing said:—“he sentence of the Court is that you be confined in the State Prison for the term of your natural life at hard labor.” ‘The prisoner received his sentence unconcernedly, and having manacled, was conveyed to the Tombs. Bernstein, one of the codefendants, will be tried to-day iu the Court of Oyer and Terminer, NO QUORUM OF ALDERMEN. — The Board of Aldermen should have met yester- day.

The $2,200 salaries were cut down to $2,000, The salaries of music teachers were also red: and one of the niusic teachers was discharged, A total saving of $16,041 was effected in the salary account by the ac- tion of the Board.
