WORLD OF SPORTS.

Pitcher Serad, lately of the defunct Torontos, and once with the Buffalo National league team, has been engaged by the Newarks.
 Before the New York Cleveland National league ball game yesterday ,the long talked of match race of 100 yards between Henry and Herman of the New Works was decided. Herman won by about six inches, in eleven seconds.
 When it is remembered that Dave Orr was laid up most of the time for a month, and the outfield and pitchers position greatly weakened, the magnificent work of Ward and his men can be ap- preciated. He has struck a champion ship gait and is pressing the leaders closely.
 The Giants are slowly mounting to the top. A successful western trip will give them good chance to win the Players league pennant.
 Connor, O'Rourke and Slattery are hitting the ball on the trade mark. Con- nor has recently been especially strong with the stick.
 Buckley proposes to challenge the winner of the Herman Henry match. Buck says that he has trained off seven pounds in ten days.

Col Donaghue's Cowardly Enemy

Some person or persons, evidently in spired by enemity, have had printed and sent to prominent people in Hartford a satirical ballad reflecting upon Colonel William Donaghue of the Hibernian Rifles. The ballad is printed on a five by ten sheet of white paper, written to the air of Come All Ye," and is dedicated to the Hibernian Rifles of Hartford, Conn. The slips were sent to every liquor dealer in the city and to all of the friends of Colonel Donaghue, and even to John D. Cunningham, editor of the Hioernian Record, who in scathing terms denounces the verses in the last issue of his paper. The circulars were mailed from New Haven on July II, and the addresses on the envelopes were evi- dently written by a woman. It is thought the author will not long remain unknown. In fact the one suspected as being the principal mover in the affair nearly convicted himself when talking about it the other day. The paper is supposed to have been written and cir culated on account of the refusal of the colonel to allow the carrying out of cer- tain ideas in regard to the recent A. O. H. banquet. It was apparently written in Hartford, though mailed from New Haven.

AFTER FIVE YEARS.

Edward K. Chase Brought Back
 to Jail From Brooklyn.
 In 1885 a man named Edward E. Chase had small jewelry shop in Plain vile. One day he took a little nine- year old girl into his shop and attempt ed to assault her. He was arrested and bound over to the June term of the SUI perior court in that year, and was tried by that court. Out of respect to the family of the girl, who did not desire her to appear in court to testify against Chase, an arrangement was made by the state attorney by which Chase agreed to plead guilty to the charge of assault and take Jail sentence. He was accordingly sentenced on June 5, 1855, to six months in jail at Hartford and to pay costs amounting to about $75. On July 10 he escaped, and no trace of him could be found, although men were sent to Poughkeepsie and Litchtield, at which places it was thought he might turn up.
 About six weeks ago Sheriff Spauld- ing obtained information that Chase was working out a sentence of one year for assault in the Kings County penitentiary at Brooklyn N. Y., and his time was to expire July IS, yesterday morning. Ac- cordingly on Monday the sheriff had requisition papers made out here, and on Tuesday last he weut to Albany and got Governor Hill to sign them. From Albany he went to New York, and on Wednesday visited the penitentiary at Brooklyn to identify his man. The Sheriff was sure that he had found him, but Chase stoutly denied his identity, and said he did not know Sheriff Spaulding and had not been in Hartford in fifteen years. To make a sure identi- ticatlon, Sheriff Spaulding tetegraphed Jailer Fenn and Assistant Jailer Whit more. They were at court yesterday morning. Chase tried to prove that he was not the man who was wanted, but was identified by Sheriff Spauldiug, Jailer Fenn, Assistant Jailer Whitmore, and Dr Wright of Plainville, who happened to be in New York, and was requested by the sheriff to be present. Chase was taken back to Hartford jail yesterday.

James J. Mccarthy Meets Waterbury
 Friends in Chicago.
OMAHA, Neb, July II. 1890.

OMAHA, Neb, July II, 1890.
 The west is certainly a great country, and Chicago great city, whose citizens take pride in having secured the worlds fair. spent two days in Chicago, view ing the sights and looking up places of celebrated Haymarket riots, is still an interesting sight but the Carlson cot tage, where Dr Cronin was supposed to have beenmurdered, is now the leading place for strangers in the city to visit. Even the white horse which took such an important part in the affair, is ex- hibited in 8 down town museum.
 During my brief stay in the city I met several Waterbury men. D. F. McGrath is keeping a saloon on West Van Buren street. I met "Old Sport" Campana down at the Dearborn station on Polk street. Sport" and his wife are living in Chicago, for as he told me, 'I don't care to go east again, there are too many people there"
 Among the Waterbury men in Chica- go is Adam c. Dodds, who left Water bury many years ago. MT Dodds is a brother of Officer Dodds. He has an ex- tendent of the home of industry on Honore street. The home is for discharged convicts and it is a great help to the convlcts who are re- leased from the state prison at Joliet. Through the kindness of Mir Dodds, l was enabled to visit this prison, which is situated about 80 miles from Chicago Among the notable convicts were Neebe, the anarchist and Coughlin, O'Sullivan and Burke, who were convicted of com plicity in the murder of Dr Cronin. They are the centre of all eyes. The officials are very particular about allow ing visitors the liberties they formerly enjoyed, ever since it was discovered that the Cronin murderers were receiv- ing food from an outside source.
 There are twenty-four railroads enter ing Chicago, and the most popular route with eastern people is by way of the Erie road. This line enjoys a large share of the New England patronage and well deserves it. The service is excel lent.
 David Lynch, who was supposed to be dead, is living somewhere in Illinois, He was in Chicago several days ago, but left again. He knows about the Water bury papers writing him up.
 Omaha is a grand city and the Bee is the leading newspaper. I leave for Lincoln to-day and expect to spend several days in Nebraska's thriving city.

THE NEW POSTAL CARDS.
They Will Be Used Only By tn
 Larger Advertisers.

AArReE AuVSEC16@HSe
 It is said that many people are won- dering what special use the new adver- tisers' postal card will be if the govern ment adopts that and orders the factory to make such a card. The present card furnishes a very convenient way for circulating notices and advertising goods. Its size is suitable to many pur- poses-in fact to almost all and it is much more handy than the new size will be. The new card is designed to fill want among advertisers-to give them a larger card upon which to bill their wares and scatter the same broad cast over the land at the same cost to an advertiser. This will prove a valuable consideration to some advertisers and will make the card popular with them. With the general public the present card will hold favor. The pearl gray card, smaller than the present card, in- tended for ladies, which the contract calls for, has not yet been made. The government has not even asked for sam- pies of board.

GRAND STREET CEMETERY.
The Hearing Continued This Alter
 noon Before Frank E. HYde.

Ine hehFinR continued rms Alter
 noon Before Frank E. Hyde
 The hearing in regard to the owner ship of the old Grand street cemetery was continued before Frank E. Hyde, committee of the superior court, in the district court room this afternoon at 2 o'clock. A map prepared by Engineer Whitl, ok was prodLc ced, showing the layout of the land. The claim of the heirs of Jesse Hopkins to ownership of plot 20a by 12t feet in dimensions, was first considered. Attorney Burpee, who represented the city, said there was no doubt but that the claim was good. The plot was pur- chased in 1901, while the town cemetery was not purchased until four years later. The only thing to be done, he said, was to appraise the land and let the heirs, ot which there are many, set tie the ownership between themselves.
 A title to the Catholic portion of the cemetery was produced and found to be perfect. The land comprises one acre on the Meadow street side. It was con veyed on May 6, 1S47, by J. F. Scovill, to William Tyler, bishop of Hartford, and his successors.
 The hearing will be continued next Friday afternoon.
