The Projected Street RaiIrOad.-A
False Report.

SIC HEOBeCteu -
False Report.
A report gained currency yesterday,
and was somewhat widely credited, to
the effect that the Minister of the In
terror had refused to allow the rails to
be laid for projected street railroad. In
consequence of this Col. G. w. Macfar-
lane was Intercepted by reporter from
this office, with the view of ascertaining
if there were any truth in the report
Colonel Macfarlane replied that there
was none whatever. He, however,
added that some little formality IN con-
nection with the papers had arisen,
which it was at first thought might de-
Law matters a day or two, and it was pro-
badly an erroneous understanding OF
this point which had given rise to the
report. AS matter of fact, no hitch has
occurred, and the rails are now being
taken Up to Palace Square, where the
work will commence immediately and
from whence it will proceed in both dl-
rections.
Hopes are still entertained that Fort
street will be substituted for Alakea
street as the route by which the bust
ness center will be connected with the
wharves. Such modification OF the
original plan would require an alteration
of the franchise, but would. we believe,
give general satisfaction.
As to the effect of the new line upon
the hack traffic, Mr.. Gribble was heard

College PLAYERS.

The following account of lastweek's games
at Bowdoin gives good idea of what this
years players can do The NJ. S. c. nine
stopped at Brunswick on their return from
Portland and on Friday defeated the Medical
school team by score Of % to 4, Andrews
pitching On Saturday morning at ten
o'clock the Maine State boys met the regular
Bowdoin nine and played one of the most in
tensely interesting games ever played at
Bowdoin. One Of Bowdoin's regular catch
ers was away and the other unable to catch.
Russell, 'S9 went behind the bat, and consid-
ering the fact that he has not caught for two
years, played a fine game. Andrews and
Keith were the battery for the NJ. S. C.'s for
the first four innings, in which the BowdoIns
made nine safe hits and scored seven runs.
For the next four innings the battery work
was done by Small and Rogers, and only one
safe hit was made off the champion pitcher
of the college league while no one scored for
the home team. The NJ. S. C.'s tied the runs
eighth. Russell opened the ninth for the
BOwdoins with a two bagger, but a moment
later was caught off second by Haggett, who
captured Packard's line drive TO left and
threw to Philbrook, with two men out. Lar
rabee lifted the ball to centre for two bas-
er Andrews muffed Fish's fly to right after
a hard run, and then Williamson brought
both men home and won the game by line
hit to centre. In the last half Of the ninth
Rogers made base hit and scored on errors.
Keith flied out to the right and Small made
three base hit, but was left at third In the
first inning Small hit the first ball pitched
driving 1t into the 'Pines" for home run.
For the NJ S. g., the battery work Of Small
and Rogers, the fielding Of Haggett and
Keith and SmalPs batting were special feat
ures. The batting and base running Of the
team and Cary's pitching were the strong
points of Bowdoin's work.

The sensation in France in regard to Gen.
Boulanger brings out the story of one of
Congressman John J. O'Neill's travel expe-
riences of the last summer. O'Neill, who is
a Missourian, did Paris with guide, and
during the tour, which consumed about two
days, he passed many comments upon the
rude and ignorant ways of the infant repub-
lie. The comments he gave to the guide in
the form of orations, and he managed here
and there to interlard some of the long labor
speeches of which he had already delivered
himself in the Forty-ninth Congress he
was full of the independence Of the American
Congressman abroad, and he sneered at the
toadyism which the lower classes Of the
French people seemed to exhibit toward the
upper classes. ''Here." said he, as they
drove past a shop in which loayes Of fresh
made bread shone out through the windows,
'.here is an instance. I've seen that name
painted on fully 100 shops this morning.
You people never let man grow prominent
without worshiping him, and as for that
man Boulanger, whose name is painted over
these shops, he may be a great man, but in
America we would not worship him like
god" The guide burst into roar Of
French laughter, and finally explained to
O'Neill that "bOulanger" was the French
word sfor "baker," and that the shops he
supposed to be eulogizing the French gen.
eral we're merely bake-shops for the sale OF
bread, biscuits and rolls
