DoLlTTLEs BEAT THE PAvoNIAs

The Catholic Clubs bowling team rolled at
home last night in the first game of a series
with the team of the Holy Cross Lyceum Of
New York. Cavanagh, who had returned
yesterday from an ocean voyage, was on his
sea legs and fell far under his average. The
team did excellent work, and struck an aver
age of almost 1855. Only one dropped below
the f~orties, and he was but one pin behind.
Frank Riordan, O'Brien and Mallen made
heavy contributions, and Griffin, Owens and
Burns assisted to get the total over fifteen
hundred. Only three of the visiting
team went over the orthodox line. King
made the top score of the night and the Far
rell brothers did nobly to raise the score.
Fitzpatrick was a tri1e off for an expert.
The home team was in the van from the
start and finish, 172 pins ahead.
After the game the visiting team was en-
tertained in the gymnasium. Supper was
served, and President Fay of the organiza-
ton, who was one of the orators, declared
that they had never received such excellent
treatment from home.
Captain Moran of the home team made a
felicitous address. Mr.. Fitzpatrick delivered
a brief, but happy speech, and James Owens
sang sweetly a well chosen ballad. The score
of the game was:-

ILLINOIS DEMOCRATS.
United States Senator to BE Nomi-
mated at the State Convention.

u 4lttCu 0b0kCS
mated at the State Convention.
WASHINGTON, March 6, 1S04.-Speaking of
the conclusion reached by the Illinois Demo
Gratis to settle the question at the next State
Convention of having that body nominate a
candidate for the Senatorship, Mr.. Springer
said today:-'sThe m~illionaires will now
have no better showing than the people. Il
is a wise conclusion to reach. 1t is the fairest
and most satisfactory method of making
a nomination. 1t was done in Sena-
tor Palmer's case, and Senator
Cullen. who expects to make a fight for hia
present seat, is also favorable to the propo-
sition. The man who is nominated can go
out among the people and make his canvass
from county to county. 1t gives the people
an opportunity to become acquainted with
him-an opportunity which they do not al
ways enjoy when the nomination is made at
an executive caucus"
ssWho will be- the principal candidates be-
fore the convention2" Mr.. Springer was
asked.
General Black will be a strong candidate
and SO will Representative Hunter OF Paris.
If the State convention decides to make the
nominations, its decision will be very hope
full to Gen. Black, as the soldier element of
the State is very large, and he is very popu-
lar with the ex-soldiers."
"Shau you be a ~candidatel"
"No. All of my efforts will be directed
towards securing a reelection to the House.
That is as far as my ambition extends"

IN. when the question of dividing the clubs
into sections was discussed. The topic was

decided to leave the question to the Execu-
tive Committee, which will meet next Tues
day night at the Cricketers' Club.

D TO THE NAVY.
The Montgomery Accepted by Secre-
tary Herbert Today.

tary Herbert Today.
WASHINGTON, March 6, 1S94.-Secretary
Herbert took considerable pleasure in signing
today the papers which added to the Navy a
new ship named after the capital of his own
State. He sent a letter to the Columbian
Iron Works in Baltimore formally accepting
the Montgomery and directing the builders
to deliver her as soon as possible to the Gov
eminent at the Norfolk Navy Yard. She
should arrive there in a day or two, when
work will at once be commenced to place
her armament and stores on board, and make
her ready for active service. 1t is thought
she can be commissioned by the middle OF
April and join the North Atlantic squadron.
Commander Charles II. Davis, who escorted
the Infanta Eulalia of Spain through the
country last summer, will command the
new ship, and in all probability will be Or
dered to take her to the West Indies and the
Eastern terminus of the Nicaragua Canal as
soon as she is ready for sea.
The Montgomery is a sister ship to the
Detroit, but developed greater speed on her
trial and is ranked among the fastest vessels
in the Navy, having made over nineteen
knots. She is unarmored, coal protected
and has a defective deck. Her schooner
rig with 1000 feet of sail area, gives her adj
vantages over nearly all the new vessels.
Her cruising radius at eight knot speed i
nearly 10, 200 miles, while OF coal alone at u
14-knot gait she can cover more than 40 )
miles straight away in thirteen days. She
will carry eight 5-inch and two 6-inch rapid
fire guns, and a secondary battery of six
Founders and Gatling guns, besides having
four torpedo boats. Her keel was laid in
1890, but her completion was delayed by
failure to secure plates for her hull.

MUSTN'T MONKEY WITH HIM.

Yesterday morning John Murphy and
Hugh Hart were arraigned before Justice
o'Donnell charged with fighting on the
street and wrecking a $50 plate glass win
dow in the barber shop of sIke" Thompson,
on Montgomery street. The men were held
until they agreed to pay for the window.
Yesterday afternoon some friends of the
prisoners informed the Court that arrange
ments had been made to pay for the glass.
Justice O'Donnell accordingly released the
men for a hearing this morning. When ar
raigned before him he was surprised to learn
the window. The Court, becoming excited,
suddenly exclaimed, anybody who tries to
monkey with me don't know what they are
up against" He then fined the men $40 each.

STONED BY THREE GIRLS.
An Italian Woman Assaulted at 4
Dark Spot in HObOken.


Dark Spot I'm HobOken.
Salina Ferris, twenty-five years old, of No.
rs Washington street, Hoboken, an Italian
woman Of the rag-picker variety, was stoned
by three girls at Willow avenue and Ferry
street, Hoboken, at dusk last night as she
was on her way to the ferry. She lodged
the fussilade of stones, but in jumping to and
fro she was struck on the ankle by a big
stone that knocked her over. She was I'M
able to rise, and houted for help. l. am
bulance was summoned, and she was re-
moved to st. Mary's Hospital.
Who the girls are Salina cannot say, and
does not remember any particular features
of dress by which they may be distinguished.
She thinks they were about twenty years
old.
She had come quietly down Ferry street
from the West Shore Railroad tracks and
juft gone under the Willow avenue station
of the electric elevated road when she heard
a rock land in a gutter near her. The girls
were hiding behind the steps leading to the
platform and she could see them only lndls-
tinctly.
As She turned around another stone came
flying through the air and fully a dozen
were shot at her. When she fell to the
ground her assailants fed, and when help
arrived there was no trace of the girls. This
is an unusual happening in Hoboken, as the
fiinging of stones is mainly done by big men
and little bows.
