fore a clothing store, his eyes rested on

Half an hour later tho gentleman who had
followed them entered Paillard's His friend
was waiting for him, in company with a
young and pretty woman, who was engaged

WELL said his friend, what
news have you brought what
did you see: Cora, here, has been quite
nervous at your long absence and made sure
you had been killed, something"
He related briefly what the reader already
knows.
"Dear me, how nice and interesting"
said the young lady; land what then:'
"Well, the priest did not take his compan-
ion to the police station instead they went
into a restaurant which happened to be
open"
Skip the bill of fare-what then"
Then they went on, and | walked near
enough to them to hear the man say that
though his laughter had gone to the bad, she
was a pretty GOO hearted sort of girl, and
that if Ee had revealed himself to her when
he saw her driving past she would certainly
have given him what money she had, but
that he did not want that kind of money,

BASEBALL.

Who's going to the game to.day-in Phila-
delphia2
The six best players of the Metropolitan
Club will be added to the six best players
on the National nino, when the latter goes
into the American Association. What's to
hinder the championship coming Co Wash
ington? Certainly not the Brooklyns.
The Nationals speak highly of the Brook
Ign players, us lot of very gentlemanly
ball-tossers.
The Brooklyns got very much ratified
Saturday when the home boys began to
slug the ball.
General McCook, Secretary OF the Senate,
divided his time Saturday afternoon be-
tween munching peanuts and applauding
the Nationals.
There seems to be diversity Of opinion
as to what the salary list of the Brooklyns
is. The Sunday Herald speaks of them as
tho $4,000 team, the Capital says tho
$4,000 nine, and the Post speaks of the
100000 team.
Everyone expressed sorrow for TED
Ryan, who was struck so terribly by foul
tip in Saturdays game. A man is foolish TO
stand up and umpire game without q
mask. An umpire stands as much danger
almost as catcher, and should carefully
protect himself
The Nationals meet the Athletics to-day
in Philadelphia. They rest tomorrow, re
turning in time to meet the champions of
the League, the Providence nine, on
Wednesday. Games with the Rhode Island
Club will also be played on Thursday aud
Friday. On Saturday thoy will daily with

Brouthers and men of his ilk, whose very
appearance disarms the most skilful

A NEW ROWING CLUB.
Probable Formation of One the Com
ing Week-Squibs of interest
on Land and Water.

Probable Formation of One the Com
ing Week-Squibs of interest
on Land and Water
1t is very probable that new amateur
athletic and rowing association will be
formed here this week. Several Of our best
known lovers of athletic sports, aud o.
pecially of rowing, have had one or two
meetings looking toward the formation Of
such an association. They have gone 80
far that an order is all ready to be given
for new boats. 1t is the desire of the or
ganization to enter scullers aud crews 10 all
of the races in this summers local rogatts,
and IL Is promised that the new orgauizt-
tion, though it will be youngest, will not
BIO the least active. A boathouse will not
be built this summer, as there is not time,
but next season will probably SEQ tho new
club installed in its own quarters. For this
eason.the club will be located at Mr.. Cum
berland's. There is plenty of room for au-
other club. IL is safe to say that there is
twice AS much interest in aquatic sports
here now as there was before the organiza-
tion of the Columbia Club. The three old
est organizations are crowded with mem-
bers, until the Columbia and Potomac clubs
arc almost unwieldy. The new club will
be run on the enterprising and aggressive
plan so successfully carrlou OUT Dy cue OO-
lumbias. 1t will be essentially rowing
club, and crews will DO entered whenever
and wherever there seems chance to win
race. Among the gentlemen who have
this project in view are many who are or
have the making of fine oarsmen, and
there is no danger that tho club will lack
material when its objects are fully known.
Barge parties will not be encouraged.
Captain Wright of the Analostaus will
be busy the coming week experimenting
the Improvements TO the boathouse.
The trimmings Of the house are to be
touched up, new baths added and other inn
provements made. The float was placed ia
position last week and all the boats over
hauled. The coming week will undoubt-
edly see the first crews of the season out
from this house.
The death of Howard NJ. johnson has
cast gloom over tho Analostan Club. He
was universal favorite, always gentle
| manly and courteous in his treatment of
| those he came in contact with. During an
acquaintance of number of years never
heard rude or pro(ane expression pass
his lips. His handsome face aud sunny lis.
position will be sadly missed at the club
| house.

In THE SOuDAN.
sickness Among the Troops.


General Wolseley has forwarded to the
War Office in London significant report
made out by the medical staff attached to
the Khartoum expedition The report
states that If the present British military
stations in the Soudan be maintained,
fully one-half of the troops will die or be
disabled by the heat before the arrival of
autumn. The whole tone of this peculiar
report, which was undoubtedly directly in
spired by General Wolseley himself, in-
dicates that, decision having been reached
to that effect, the public is being prepared
to witness an early withdrawal of the
whole British force from the Soudan to
Egypt, and complete abandonment of the
Nile Kbart0um expedition.
1t is announced that General Graham
has been ordered by the government to at
once open peace negotiations with Osman
Digna, or The sheiks between Suakim and
Berber possessing the power to control the
natives. 1t is stated that General Graham
has been instructed TO secure such terms as
will enable him to eyacuate the country at
once.

COOPER DoDGING HIS PURsUERs.
The Excitement I'm Baltimore COun-
~ Continues.

The excitement in Baltimore County
over the attempted outrage by Howard
Cooper (colored) on Miss Katie Gray near
Rockland was more intense yesterday than
ON any day since the occurrence. There
were between three aud four hundred men
hunting for Cooper yesterday. 1t was re-
ported that he was seen Saturday night a
few hundred yards from the village of
Rockland. Whether it was he or not, could
not be positively ascertained. One of the
"Vigilants' saw man whom he took to be
Cooper, and ran after him. The negro
made for the woods. Several shots were
fired at him, but he escaped The people
about Rockland think that the man seen
was Cooper, and that he is hiding la the
woods near there. The woods contain
thick underground of laurel, and they
think he is concealed there. Fifty men
with dogs were searching the vicinity yes
teTday. A spot was found ia the woods
which showed traces of some one having
slept there, and scraps of food were scat.
tered around. The supposltion is that he
spends the day in the woods, and seeks
shelter in some barn or negro hut OF night
Every quarter for miles around is beiug
closely watched at night Baltimore

SHAKSPEARE IMPROy Sd.
To bite, or not to bite, that is the question;
Whether tits nobler in the stomach to suffer
The stings and gnawings of outrageous hun.
ger,
Or to take up courage, fly to yon bald head
And. by biting, end 'em? To bite, to gnaw
No more, and by bite to say we end
The hunger and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to-such as dyspepsia-'tis
a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To bite-to gnaw-
To gnaw, perchance to be killed in the act
ay, there's the rub!
For in that bite the dreadful ends the victim
might be driven to
Must give US pause. There's the excursion
That takes the backbone out of the fun, and
makes us seasick,
For who would bear to be smashed into a
shapeless pulp,
When he, himself, might his quietus make
by jumping from the Brooklyn Bridge:
Who would an empty stomach bear,
To sweat and grunt under a dreadful appe-
tite,
But that the dread of something after the
bite,
The risk Of swift despatch to the happy hunt
ing grounds,
That undiscovered country, from whose
bourne
No traveller e'er returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly TO others that we know not of.
Thus conscience does make towards Of us
all,
And 10, in consequence of this Internal hesl-
tatiOn
Off sallies old Brown with his bald head.
