new grounds In this city,
There seems TO be some misunder
standing in reference to the Brady
Senate Club, of New Castle, sending 81
''open challenge" TO any club in thu
State. 1t appears that the challenge
was published without the authority Of
the manager Of the club. However,
since the Defiance accepted the bogus
challenge, arrangements will be made
for series of games between the two
clubs.
The Experts, of Philadelphia, recent
ly challenged the Experts Of this city,
which was to have taken place to-day,
but the former threw up the game and
the home club Is left In the lurch and
arc much put out about 1t, as they had
been put to considerable expense In
preparing for the game.
1t Is not definitely known whether
Our Boys will have a game on Friday
or not but 1t is generally supposed they
will.

AnnOHtnEaMIdOR,

Mrs. Annie Scanlan, young widow
who lives with her mother at No. 129
Summit street, Brooklyn is the victim
of arersecutiou similar to that practiCed
on the Rev.. DR.. Morgan Dix, of New
York. Some one has been ordering goods
In her name and having them sent tC
her house. On Thursday in the aggre'
gate there we're sent thirty-nine quarts
| of ice cream in small quantities from
six different dealers, fourteen tons OF
coal from eight different yards, three
kegs of beer from as many breWerieS,
forty wagon loads Of bundle wood, sew
en- insurance agents to effect an insur-
ance, an expressman with an order for
a case of clothing for the Society for the
Improvement Of the Condition Of the
Poor, and finally there was brought
from a prominent dry goods store a
twin infants outfit valued at Sf25. All
these articles were delivered at differ
ent hours, some of the cream coming as
late as II P. M. Early Friday morning
the annoyance began anew. The first
caller was the driverofacarpet-c cleaning
concern. with card directing him to
call for carpets before A. M. He was
soon followed by two others on the same
errand, and then came a miscellaneous
collection Of florists, bakers, contec-
tiOners, dry goods meu, coal carts and
more insurance brokers, Altogether
there were Brought in response to ficti-
tious orders the following goods: Thir.
teen tons of coal, forty-one quarts of
ice crea u, four baskets and two bou-
quets of flowers, seven cakes and TWEEN.
ty loaves of bread, about 800 worth of
dry goods, and five insurance brokers,
to say nothing of nine dozen bottled
lager beer from four separate dealers
On Saturday the first caller was a wet
nurse, who rang the bell at $50 in the
morning, and was succeeded in the
course of the day by about thirty others,
all in search of the same infant. There
were also three other lager beer dealers
AMI TWO soda water peddlers sent. In
the evening the expressmen began call
ing, aud did not cease until about mid
night. Altogether there must have
been about fifteen of them, three being
there at the same time. They inquired
for trunks directed to different points
varying from Babylon, L. l., to Mon
treal, Canada. On Sunday there came
twenty-one quarts Office cream and An

inquire before sending his ice box.
Since that time all has been quiet. Mrs.
Scanlan's nerves are 80 unstrung in con-
sequence of the excitement that she
will leave the city. Mrs. Seaman said
last night that the case had been placed
in the hands of detec tives, and that she
has her suspicious as to whom her per-
secutor is. If the person is arrested she
intends to press the charge in the courts

Mr.. W. FL. Vanderbilt has been in
terviewed in regard to the general bus
mess outlook of the country. he
would not say that the business of the
country is at this time In the best con.
ditiun ever experienced, nor that the
prospects are the brightest ever seen,
but he thinks the outlook for the next
eighteen months is certainly very good,
The principal evidence of this is in the
fine crops OF the West. OF course good
crops beget prosperity for all classes
when there are no drawbacks In anoth-
or direction. The labor question is not
settled, but there will be less time
wasted in strikes next year than dur
ing the present season.

The audience at the Opera House last Friday
night when Edwin Booth played "IIamlet," I"
undoubtedly noticed the pungent odor that
pervsded the house, after the great scene be-
tween Hamlet and his mother, during which
the old Chamberlain Polonius is killed. It
was peculiar yet not unpleasant, and only
those familiar with the substance producing
1t, could account for the odor. The eminont
tragedian himself and the company support
ing him, have been suffering for several days
past from colds and physical aches produced
by the changeful weather and the usual ex.
posure on the stage, and one of the company,
Mr.. d. G. Anderson, who played Polonius,
was taken violently and suddenly i'll during
the play; by directions of MIR Booth who is
always solicitous for the welfare of his people
a bottle of st. Jacobs OIL was brought from
his dressing case and the suffering actor thor
oughly rubbed with the famous German
Remedy, which soon brought relief and full
recovery. Mr.. Booth always carries this re
liable emollient with him, and the contents Of
his dressing case without 1t, would be as in
complete as the play OF Hamlet without the
ghost. Burlington (Ld) Gazette.
