GLOW THE WINNER.
The Globes Challenge Tankard
Now His Property.

Now His Property.
Charley Glow is now the posseSsor of
the elegant GLOBE challenge tankard.
He last evening defeated Bingham in
the challenge series, which is the finale
TO the GLOBE amateur billiard tOurna-
ment at Foley'S, which has proven such
pronounced success the past season.
The game was hotly contested, and it
was peculiar in certain features. Both
played carefully and shrewdly, and this
contributed more than mOdicum tOthe
excitement, although both players were
scarcely up to their erstwhile execution.
Glow started of Speediest and opened
up lead, but in the fiftieth inning
things had become evened up and they
sped along for time neck and neck.
Then Glow got two or three runs and
was once more some distance in ad-
vance, only to have the gap steadily
fought down TO even terms as the 200
points were turned. For time the
hardest sort of work excited the audi
ence. The billiards came slow and
hard, but Glow made runs at snort in
tervals Of Is. IA, a., 10 and l6, and
the game was practically won,
although pluucky Bingham never gave
up, but kept at work reducing the long
lead until Glow made his last run of 9,
and the game was aWarde to him.
Dr. Lawton, the Off cial referee, but
who has been i'll, h al sufficiently recov-
cred to occupy his old station, while
Frank Thayer acted as marker.
Glow won 300 to 256, and 1t req uired
l04 innings to encompass it. This gives
an average of very small fraction
under three points, or, to be exact,
2 1896. CLOVIS high runs were 13, IA,
10, 13 If, "A, 10 and 16, and Bingham
only reached double fig ures twice, and
each time he scored IL buttons.

COOPERATION PROPOSED.
A Scheme Laid Before the Locked
Out Homesteaders.

HoMEsTEADERs, Pa, Nov. 4.-There
is considerable discussion going on here
over proposed cooperative steel plant.
K Sand, of London, England, who came
here yesterday to confer with the adj
vlsory board regarding the scheme,
stated that te had an option on a tract
of $4,000 acres of land located in Bath
ard Allegheny counties, Virginia This
tract was rich in coal and iron, and was
undeveloped. Some two years ago an
effort was made with capitalists of New
York, Philadelphia and Baltimore,
partly with English capital, to develop
the property, but, through the failure
of the Barring Bros, the scheme failed
to materialiZe.
These men are still ready to invest in
tae scheme, and lie considered it was
most favorable opportunity of employ
in5 the large force Of skilled men here
that would be hard to obtain at other
times. According to Mr.. Sands propo-
sitien, the Homestead men are to raise
S5O0,000 and the syndicate agIess to in
vest S4.000,000 in the cooperative plant
How much each share will cost and
what kind of plant will be built is to
be settled at a future conference.
