Columbia College, being also professor of Germanic Language and Literature. Oneday on entering the Harvard Library at Cambridge Professor Ezra Abboft handed Boyesen the registry in which to write his name. When he read Hjalmar Hjorth Boyesen he said: “What kind of a name is that?”” When told it was Scandi- navian Professor Abbott told him that a man had just left who would like to see him; that this man was trying to trans- late some Norwegian dialect ballads. Could | Professor Boyesen read these dialects? Of | course he could. He talked themand F. | J. Child was so delighted with his assistant that he begged bim to come to Cambridge as his guest while they translated the “Lanstads’” or Norwegian ballads. This was done and in acknowledgment of the service rendered Professor Child, in order to introduce this new friend to thz literati of Cambridge, gave a dinner to his honor, to which Longellow, Henry James and Howells were all inyited. Then began one of the warmest friend- ships between Howells and Boyesen, which endured for more than twenty years and ended only with life. When Mr. Howells asked Professor Boyesen if he had ever written anything the supreme moment had come and ‘‘Gunnar” was drawn frem the depths of the trunk and committed to Mr. Howells for his criti- cism. At a dinner given by Longfellow, Boye- sen read the opening chapters of this charming story and was begged by the company to continue the reading. The story was published in the Atlantic Monthly through the influence of Mr. Howelis and by its immense popularity and success won for America a delightlul novelist and story-writer, who had until now not adopted this country as his own. Professor Boyesen returned to Germany and studied for two years in the univer- sities there to fit himself for a professor- ship in the Germanic languages and philology. While abroad at this time Boyesen visited Paris, where he met the Russian realist, Tourguenieff. For this man the American novelist formed a stroug attachment—a friendship which lasted until Tourguenieff passed away, leaving two most sincere mourners in the persons of Howells and Boyesen. When “Gunnar’’ appeared in book form it was dedicated to Tourguenieff, who had been such an inspiration to its author. In the fall of 1874 Professor Boyesen was ‘called to a chair in Cornell University. In 1878 his marriage to a Philadelphian was solemnized and the bridal tour consisted of & year’s travel in Italy. Professor Boyesen left Cornell in 1880 and went to New York to make literature his profession and de- ‘voted his whole time to belles lettres. In 1881, however, he accepted a position in Columbia College,where he became profes- sor of Germanic language and literature. Some of Boyesen’s novels are ‘‘Tales of Two Hemispheres,” which is in its fifth edtion; “A Norseman’s Pilgrimage,” ““Goethe and Shiller,”” with a commentary n_ “Faust,” ‘‘Falkenburg,” “Idylls of Norway,” of which Little Sweetbrier Rose is one of the gems, and the “Mammon of Unrighteousness,” which the author con- sidered his most finished work. Boyesen had also written some “Essays on German Literature,” and the “Golden Calf,” which is just published by Flood & Vincent. Part of this story has appeared in the Chautauguan during the past year. Three years azo this popular lecturer was at Chautangua for the first time and gave a course of six lectures on ““The Mod- ern Noyel.” Daring the current season he bas given art criticisms on ‘‘Modern German and French Painters.” These lectures were illustrated by finely selected and well-developed masterpieces of the various: artists. ‘“‘Shelley,” " ‘‘Keats’’ and “Byron” were also themes for Professor Boyesen’s lectures. > Will Appeal the Case. .DANVILLE, Ixp,, Oct. 4.—The attorneys | San Diego, San!Jose and Riverside, and she also intends to hold meetings on the train, She will be absent from the Fourteenth- street Barracks in all five weeks, returning in time for the week of special meetings, which will be held about the miadle of November, and which bring together all the officers in the Eastern regiments. It is two or three years since a meeting of this kind has been held, and inasmuch as the army has increased very materially since then it is being looked forward to by the leaders as not only a necessary gather- ing, but one of great importance. OLNEY ENTERS THE ARENA, Friends of the Secretary Push His Claims for the Presidency. Lobbylst Hanlon Says That the Diplomat Is Second to No Eastern Democrat. BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 4. —During the last few mouths the number of Eastern Presi- dential candidates has been quite ple- theric, but still another has entered the arena. Friends of Secretary Olney are vushing forward his claims to the Demo- cratic nomination, and it 1s claimed that be has already mustered considerable strength. P. J. Hanlon, the well-known ‘Washimgton lobbyist, is claimed to be the man behind the Eastern man, and when seen by THE CALL correspondent yesterday he had this to say in regard to his candi- date: “If an Eastern man is taken, Olney is second to none. He is regarded as a man of excellent ability, broad gauge and lib- eral in his views, and yet prudent and con- servative in action. In point of avail- ability he is easily first. It may be that fortune will favor him with the oppor- tunity of performing some master-stroke, as the present Monroe doctrine affair promises to be of great importance. If he comes out first in this contest it will win the applause of the whole public and cause him to be regarded with unbounded admiration. If a piece of luck like this should happen the Secretary would not be the man to let it pass unrealized. He is too good a politician for that. “He stands well with his party, and his having been appointed to the highest gift in his power shows that he is well thought of by the chief executive. It is rather early to make political statements, but he will surely be in the race. “‘Among Eastern politiciahs, however, the candidacy of the Secretary is looked at rather askance, and several prominent members of the Democratic party said he would receive little or no support outside of his own few personal friends. While all recognize his ability, it i3 feit that he is not the leader in strength which is re- quired this year. President Cleveland, who is still at Gray Gables, was informed to-day of Oluey’s candidacy, but declined to discuss it. The general impression is that he will retire after the opening of the contest. e Relatives Will Rescue Him., CHICAGO, IrL.,, Oct. 4—Harry J. L. Martin, receiving teller for the Commercial National Bank of Chicago, was placed under arrest by United States Deputy Marshal Allen to-night on the charge of embezzlement of $4500. He has wealthy relatives at Douglas, Mich., who, it is said, will help him out of his ditficulty. frk oty Execution of a Wife-Poisoner. CHARLESTON, W. Va., Oct. 4—An- drew J. Scott, colored, was hanged in the jailyard here to-day for the murder of his wife by poisoning. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, ALL THE LATEST SPORTING Speculation as to Where Corbett and Fitz Will Meet. MANY TOWNS MAKE BIDS That the Fight Will Go to In- dian Territory Is Con- ‘ceded. MEXICO PUT OUT OF THE WAY. The Rallroad Companies Guarantee Ample Transportation to the Choctaw Nation. DALLAS, TEex., Oct. 4.—There is consid- erable speculation as to where the Corbett- Fitzsimmons fight will be pulled off. That it will go to the Indian Territory is gener- ally conceded, as Mexico is almost too far away, although the Florida Club isin re- ceipt of many telegrams from El Paso and Laredo urging that the fight be brought there. J.J.Taylor of El Paso is on his way and is supposed to be the bearer of a liberal proposition to Mr. Stuart. Repre- sentatives of the several lines of railroads running through the Indian Territory have been very active to-day, and all guarantee ample transportation facilities. A dozen towns in the nation are eager candidates for the prize, but it may be several days yet before the location is fixed. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Oct. 4.—Charles Campbell of this city. who holds the con- cession from the State of Tamaulipas, Mex., for the holding of prizefights and other kinds of athletic sports at Nuevo Laredo, is convinced that there will be no interference by Federal authority in that country. Governor Alejandro Prieta of the State of Tamaulipas has telegraphed President Diaz an inquiry as to whether the Federal Government would approve the concession that has been granted by the State Depart- ment. Diaz, it is understood, will not in- terfere with the decision of any Governor who will grant a concession. Mrs. Brady, wife of Manager Brady, and the gther female members of the Corbett party, with the exception of Mrs. Corbett, arrived here this morning. They will make their home at a hotel. Corbett will arrive here Sunday morning. DENISON, Tex., Oct. 4—A lobby of prominent sporting men passed through here last night to visit the ,Chickasaw and Choctaw councils to see if the Corbett- Fitzsimmons fight cannot be pulled off in the Indian Territory. ERNE WON THFE FIGHT. Skelly Knocked Completely Out in the Ninth Round. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 4.—The first of a series of subscription boxing entertain- ments was given here to-night by the newly organized new Manhattan Athletic Club to about 2000 spectators—club members and their guests. The opening bout between Mike Harris of New York and Tommy West of Boston, | after a rather one-sided exhibition, was, given to West in, the seventh round, when he knocked Harris down and out. Sam Tompkins of Astoria and Harry Fisher of New York were slated to furnish the balance of the preliminary sparring, leading up to the fight of the night—that between Frank Erne of Buffalo and Jack | Skelly of Brooklyn, but the bout was de- clared off owing to the non-appearance of Tompking on account of illness. The stars were scheduled to spar fifteen rounds for scientific points at 126 pounds. Erne assumed the aggressive at the start, and in the first and second rounds got in some pretty hot blows on Skelly’s stom- | ach, neck and ribs, with no returns. In the third Erne forced his man around the ring, hitting him in the face at will. Skelly rallied toward the end of the round, and honors were about even when the bell sounded. In the fourth and fifth rounds the Buf- falo man rushed matters right along and closed Skelly’s eye, but Jack made Erne’s nose bleed. A stiff one on the neck, how- ever, nearly did it for Jack. 8kelly came up weak for the sixth, but landed a few on Erne’s damaged nose. In the seventh Skelly was knocked down, and the eighth was the same as the seventh, Skelly going down twice. They appeared weak in the ninth, but Erne finally got in a terrific left on Skel- ly’s jaw and he went out, and Erne was awarded the fight. e YALE-CAMBRIDGE GAMES. It Will Be a Great Day for American College Men. NEW YORK, N.Y., Oct. 4.—The final arrangements have been made for the Yale-Cambridge athletic games on Man- hattan field to-morrow afternoon. Never before has the track been in as good condi- tion as now. It has been carefully exam- ined by experws and pronounced as nearly perfect as it can be made. The experi- ment of conducting a meeting with only nine field officials has been hailed gladly by all lovers of athletic sports. It is es- sentially an English idea, and if success- fully introduced here will probably be widely adopted. Never before in the his- tory of athletic meetings in this country has there been so large a sale of reserved seats, the sale amounting now to about 5000 tickets. All that is needed now to make the games an unprecedented success is fair weather, and there is every indication that an enormous crowd will be present. Many prominent persons will attend the games, including Mayor Strong, William Whit- ney, Chauncey Depew, Gornelius Vander- bilt, John Jacob Astor, Sir Jullan Paunce- foteand probably the Duke of Marlborough. From the social point of view, as regards spectators, the meet will eclipse anything of the kind ever seen in this country. Yale men from States as far west as the Mississippi will be there. Many Yale students will attend the game, the uni- versity faculty having granted general leaves of absence for the occasion. E—— ALL IN FINE FORM. Splendid Wheel Ruces Exzpected at the Omaha Meeting. OMAHA, Nese., Oct. 3. — Extensive preparations are being made for the Nation- al Circuit wheel races on October 11 and 12, given under theanspices of the Gany- mede Wheel Club at Union Driving Park. H. E. Grimm received a letter from F. X. Spooner of the Associated Cycling Clubs in response to the telegram sent by him a few days ago. The letter stated that the following class B riders had authorized him to enter their names in all the races: Edwara C. Bald of Buffalo and W. F. Sims of Philadelphia, of the Columbia team; J. P. Bliss of Chicago aud Tom Cooper of Detroit, of the Monarch team; Charles M. Murphy of Brooklyn, of the Humber team; C. 8. Wells ana | | of the club he will know of it, and when | of the sophomore eleven feels confident of | Word has been received from Chairman W. A. Terrell of San Francisco of the Syra- cuse team. He also hoped Cabanne, Titus, Brown and Rigby would be present, and thought they would, although they had not authorized him to enter their names, “All thoss fellows,” he said, “are in splendid condition, and will give better races than we have seen in the East for some time. Get me a rate at a good hotel for twenty persons and engage rooms for a party of fifteen. I am now working on oulter, Gardinerand Zeizler, and think they will be with you; they are wavering.” In accordance with the promise made by the racing board arrangements were at once commenced for a race meeting, which promises to be an unprecedented success. Foeaa g e WON THE PALACE STAKE. Caliph Captured a Big Purse for His Owner at Aberdeen. ABERDEEN, 8. D., Oct. 4.—Caliph, the North Dakota hound, wins the Palace stakes and Merry Maid and Minneapolis divide first and second money. Oakes and San Joaquin were third and fourth in the Aberdeen Derby. The run-offs in the Palace stake and Derby took place to-day in the country seven miles southwest of Aberdeen. In the former, Caliph, the dashing dog owned by A. P. Slocum of Oakes, won over Valkyrie and scored a kili, having everything about as he wanted it. First money, $150, therefore went to Caliph, with the second, $80, to Valkyrle, third, $40, to Pearl, and fourth,also $40, to Raven. ValkIyrie belongs to Dr. Van Hummell, Pearl is the property of Charles A. Robin- son of 8t. Louis, and Raven isan Aber- deen dog, being owned by R. H. Woods. For the Derpy, Merry Maid, owned by the Columbus coursing kennels of Huron, defeated San Joaquin, a California dog, in a long chase. The latter scored several points to start with, but lost ground as the course proceeded. Minneapolis, owned by W. P. Whiting of thecity by that name, beat Oakes, owned by W. C. Watterhouse of North Dakota. The hare was killed. First and second money in this stake was divided between Merry Maid and Minneapolis, making $100 each. Third ($40) went te Qakes, and fourth, also $40, to San Joaquin. ’hm B{Qectatorn showed some feeling because of | g th e division of first and second money, hoping to see another race, but were powerless to affect the situatien.' The work of Judge Stephenson and Slipper Angell gave general eatisfaction threugh- out. The meet was very successtul in all particulars, and is but the forerunner of many others that will be held here. The attendance to-day was close to 1000. + s e WATOHING THE PLAYERS. How New York Club Members Are to Be Kept in Condition. : NEW YORK, N.Y., Oct. 4.—President Freedman of the New Yérk Club has hit upon a plan to keep his players in good physical condition next season. He said yesterday: “I intend to engage a profes- sional trainer next season, whose sole duty will be to look aiter the condition of the players. If any of them violate the rules he says a player has got out of shape be- cause of dissipation the player will be immediately suspended without pay. The trainer will travel with the team and have absolute charge of the condition of the | men. “There will also be a manager, who will have power to govern the playing of the team according to his own ideas. There will be no more drinkinfi and carousing, for hsuch offenders will be severely dealt with.” Although no trainer has been engaged Billy Newman has been strongly recom- mended for the place. Newman {s practi- cal and knows a good deal about physical training. He recently succeeded in put- ting Corbett’s injured knee in good shape, when all other sttempts had failed.

FRESNO, CaL., Oct. 4.—The fourth day of the race meet proved to be the most successful one cf the meeting, both as to attendance and sport. Some lively con- tests were witnessed. The betting was heavy and the talent suffered considerably. In the 2:20 trot race Myrtle Thorn was the favorite, but McZeus, who had not been considered in the betting, won the race in straight heats. The talent saffered likewise in the five anda half furlongs run. Inkerman was favorite and Blue Bell second choice. The latter won, with Inkerman second. The day’s finishes were all close. Every race was enlivened with vigorous whip- ping on the home stretch. No fast time was made with the exception of Ottinger's pacing of & mile in 2:114.

C., Oct. 4.—Senator Blackburn of Kentucky talked freely to- day about the political situation in Ken- tucky, and the fight heis leading for free silver. He denounces the press of the State, claiming that the newspapers of the largest cities were the hirelings of the money power, and they were preventing the true situation from becoming known. ‘“Every day in Kentucky the silver sen- timent is growing larger and assuring us a great victory. There was never any doubt about my re-election. That was evident from the very first; the only doubt that existed was regarding the State ticket. If you had asked me a month ago whether Mr. Hardin would have been elected Gov- ernor of Kentucky I would have told you that I did not know, that there was grave doubt, and that 1t would be necessary to wait to see developments before that coubt could be dispelled. Now this is all differ- ent. “There is one thing you can be assured of, and that is that Secretary Carlisle will not agam go on the stump in Kentucky during the campaign.” e JAY GOULD'S ESTATE. It Has Been Appraised at Over Seventy Millions. NEW YORK, N.Y., Oct. 4.—Surrogate Fitzgerald has returned to David McClure, appraiser of the Jay Gould estate, his re- port on its value in order that the collateral inheritance tax may be levied.

Guarded During the Journey and Its Safe Return to Philadelphia Assured. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 4.— The special train bearing the old historic Liberty bell started on its journey to At- lanta at 8 o'cleck this morning over the Pennsylvania road. The train consists of a platform-car built especially to carry the bell South, four Pullman cars and a com- bination buffet-car. Quite a crowd of people gathered and gave an enthusiastic ‘“‘good-by and safe return’ to the vener- ated relic. The special car built by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company espe- cially to carry the bell to Atlanta is said to be superior to either of those usea on similar occasions. v The escort of the bell on its trip includes Mayor Charles F. Warwick, a special com- mittee and a large delegation from the City Council and numerous city officials. The bell is guarded by four of the tallest | city reserve policemen. WASHINGTON, D. C.. Oct. 4.—The old Liberty bell of 1776 arrived to-day from Philadelphia, en route to the Atlanta £x- position, and was given an enthusiastic re- ception. At 12:17 o'clock the special train bearing the bell and its guardians ran into the Pennsylvania Railroad station, and was greeted by military companies, civic patriotic organizations, representatives of the district government and the Board of Trade and a large number of citizens. The ‘Washington Light Infantry Corps and the High School Cadets, headed by the United States Marine band, had marched down Pennsylvania avenue to the railroad station shortly before the arrival of the train, and during the stay of the bell in this city acted as its gnard of honor. At the station were assembled the District Commissioners, a committee from the Board of Trade, the Sons of the Revolu- tion, the Sons of the American Revolution and a reception committee. When the train arrivea the Marine band played a patriotic air. Mayor Warwick stepped to the station platform and was greeted by President Ross of the Board of District Commissioners, who delivered an address of welcome. The Mayor responded briefly, and after the reception party had been given a chance to view the bell, the Philadelphia contingent and their hosts were driven to the rooms of the Board of Trade, where a luncheon was served.
