WORLD OF SPORT.

Year-0ld of the Year.
The United States Beat Canada
at Cricket.
Prince Hal Wins the Free-fOr-All
Pacing Glass.
Berry, the Skater, Arrives from San
Francisco = Results of the
Eastern Races.

This afternoon after the practice at
the Univers sity grounds on Jefferson
street, the team to represent Los An
geles in the match against the Charles
ton eleven on Saturday will be selected.
The young players should be given the
preference. The players OF decade ago
should not be included in the team, as
they will not be able to stand the fast
work for more than ten minutes. Young
blood is needed. 1t is to be hoped
that the strongest team will
be put forth to do battle for this city.
The Charleston has crack eleven.
Their team work is superb, while their
tactics are something different from
those in vogue on this coast. There are
many good players in Los Angeles, but
the team on Saturday will go into the
contest handicapped. Their team work
will necessarily be weak, on account of
lack of practice together. However, the
local team will make gallant struggle,
and the game will be we'll worth going
to see. The players and positions will
be published in this column before the
matCn comes OH.

Potomac is undoubtedly the best three
year-old of the year. There is no best
two-year-old thus far. 1t is matter of
opinion about at least six youngsters.
Riley is unbeatable at any distance over
mile and quarter. The improve
ment of this colt over her three year old
form is phenomenal. He is one of the
few Derby winners in recent years who
has raced on.

The United States team won
the annual international match with
Canada. This has not beer difficult
task for a number of years. The San
Francisco Examiner has the boss cricket
reporter. In speaking OF recent game
he says that it was demonstrated that
good batting team with inferior bowlers
was no match for a good batting team
with good bowlers. The logic of this
will be appreciated by any one posted
on the national game of Great Britain.

A WOMAN OF NERVE.

How Mrs. Moore Captured the Big Negro
Who Was Under Her Bed.
On Friday evening about midnight Mrs. s.
A. Moore, who lives at 1906 G street, went to
her room and was about to retire when her at
tention was attracted by heavy breathing COM
Ing from beneath her bed. She retained her
composure, and pretended to be arranging ar
ticles around the room, at the same time en-
deavoring to obtain view of the intruder.
She discovered that it was man, and with
out betraying the least concern walked out of
the room, down stairs and out on the street,
where she luckily ran across Officer Eaton and
Special Officer Griscam. She quickly in
formed them of her discovery, and they ran
into the house and caught the man as he was
trying TO get out. He was taken to the First
Precinct and there gave his name as Fred
Hall He is a large sized-colored man, and
the officers are of the opinion that he is the
one that was implicated in several attempts at
burglary in GEORGETOWN. He feigaed drunk
enness, but the attempt was very poor and
when he saw it wouldn't work, gave it up.
Yesterday Judge Miller held him in $500 for

placed the gun alongside the house and then
tried to look down the barrel, but finding 1t
impossible he placed the muZzle up against
