EXCITED OYER PoLO.
A Rough Game ut the Park Rink Last
Eveniaa.


Evening".
Avast crowd assembled at the Park Rink
night to witness the game of polo between
the Jersey City and the Cosmopolitan Polo
Teams, the latter of the Cosmopolitan
Rink, New York. The game was called at
8 o'clock, and everything seemed to be
passing off smoothly although there was
an under current of roughness on the part
of the visiting team plainly descernable to
close observer of the game. There was
also an objection made by the Jersey
City boys because the CosmopoIitans
dropped one of their men in order to
secure the services of Paul Lambkins, OF
the Pavonia team The first goal was
won, after a desperate struggle of an hour,
by the Cosmopolitan team. Il was in the
effort to capture the second goal that Far
banel, of the New York team, was seen to
resort to unusually rough measures toward
his competitors. Several times he inten-
tionally and maliciously tripped or DELHI
erately threw different members of the
Jersey City team, and the moment the
other would resent the insult he would lus-
tily exclaim g foul" This worked very
well with the referee-Mr. John O. Cald-
well--for time, but finally, seeing through
his little game, the referee refused TO- pay
any attention to the young bully. The
game proceeded, and the home team won
the second and third goals respectively.
While the contest for the fourth goal was
in progress, Farbanel, who had never
ceased to work his little game,
finally went to the referee, and
told him he claimed foul, and
he (the referee) was no gentleman
if he did not recognize his claim. Cald-
well needed him not, and the enraged
young bully sat down, and after several
moments qurreling, fatty refused to play
unless a new referee was appointed. As
the referee had decided honorably, his de-
mand was not complied with, aud still re-
fusing to play, the Jersey City team was
decided the winners amid the widest
cheers of the audience At the Pavonia
Rink last night the attractions were sutfi-
GENTLY interesting to draw larger crowd
than was present, although fair-sized
audienced watched and applauded A. F.
Robertson, the bycbyclist, ContortIonist
Baird, and Ac:obatic and Musical SIX tiers
Bogart and Emo all of whom rnerited the
applause given them. The most novel
feature of the evening was Baird's racing
on the bicycle and without anything put the
other wheel and foot-rests, with his arms
spread out. Then he went around the
rink on a carriage wheel, propelling it with
his hands. H at s.s

A Threatened Suit by the Dramatics Against
the Academy of Music.

The members of the Jersey City Dra-
N atic Club are SO enraged at the contempti-
BILE manner with which they were treated
at the Academy of Music that they will
probably bring suit against the manager
to recover damages. The Dramatic Club
spent several weeks in rehearsing for the
production of &c Handy Andy" and sIend
Me Five Shillings." The Academy of Music
was sought, Manager Henderson was paid
$125 for the use of it for night, and last
Monday evening was selected as the time
for the performance. The arrangement
was that the theatre people should supply
the scene shutters, the money and ticket
takers, and as matter of course the man
agemeHt of the house was in the hands of
Harry Hyams, about whose personal un-
popularity andipeculiar methods the TAT
Tier has had occasion to talk before. For
the succeeding evening the theatre people
had made an engagement with the /" Parlor
Match Company" Monday evening came,
and the Dramatic Company put their care
fully prepared representations on the
boards. But in looking over the house
they noticed that it was slim beyond COM
parlson, and an examination of the audi
dieAce by some of the company showed
that many of the specially warm friends
of the Club were conspicuous by
their absence. The cause of this
was not understood till the missing ones
were sought. Then it was found that parties
who had applied to the window for seats
were told by the man in charge there that
there were none to be had, while man
stationed outside the box notified everyone
who came that Sc Parlor Matches" was not
on the boards that night, and solicited
ing night. The result of the contemplate
lying and dupicity was that the Dramatic
Company lost money instead of making it,
as they should have done. by the perfor-
nance and that is the reason why they
think of sueing Manager Henderson for
damages and redress. The part of the
work that was to be done by the Dramatic
Company was admirably done. The inn
presentations were excellent, but the tab
leaux were spoiled by the stupid incapacity
of the scene shifters-who SO invariably
spoiled the scenes that it seemed as though
they had been hired to spoil them. The
Company do not believe that Manager
Henderson is cognizant of these things.
No one, in their judgment, is capable of
such shabby littleness except the Hyams,
the so-called active or assistant manager,
but as Mr.. Henderson persists in allowing
him to act as his agent, they may take steps
to hold Manager Henderson responsible 1
for his conduct.

1t is suggested that Comptroller Durham
may refuse to allow the President of the
Senate to draw the additional So, 600 an
nually to which the Vice-President would
have been entitled. o siaEI er9i. D.
After Senator. Sherman had accepted, It

net in turn in cases of Vacancy The Elec-
toral Count bill, also to be re-introduced by
order of the Republican caucus, is that

gress. Its pivotal feature is q provision
that each State may, by its own tribunals,
determine all controversies with regard to
its own electoral vote. esaf

Merriam and a number of reporters The
appearance of the interior of the retort was
entirely different from that it presented
yesterday; instead Of being aglow with red
heat it was a brownish black. The incinera-
ton was perfect Ali that was left of the

interior was still hot, and when the super-
intendent and his assistants pulled the
cradle from the retort to the cafafaloue in
which a pan to receive the falling ashes
was placed, hot scales fell IN quantities to
the floor. About half the ashes. the finest.
were left on the bottom Of the retort. these
were swept out into the nan with q steel
broom. The pieces of bone which remained
intact in form crumbled to small ashes
when pressed between the fingers. Pieces
of the alum cloth and body clothing re-
manned in shape, showing the texture. but
crumbled quickly when touched. The
ashes having all been carefully gathered in
the pan, the latter was covered up and set
at one side to await the final process Of
forming to separate the foreign matter from
the ashes. After this has been done the
ashes will be placed in one Of the vasea
furnished by the Cremation Company. and
being sealed, will be sent to the relatives Of
the deceased. This, the first incarceration.
is pronounced a complete success.
