AT New Brunswick on Saturday after
noon the ST. Peters Lyceum of this city
defeated the team of the New Brunswick
Athletic Association in an exciting con-
test. The game was replete with brilliant
plays from start to finish. The st. Peters
boys found Pitcher Francis of the local
team an easy mark, securing from him
fifteen base hits. j. Harkins, who played
third base for the home team, is an old
time professional, having made a name
for himself on the Brooklyn and Balti-
more teams. JOIN Aubrey pitched a fault
less game for the st. Peters team. He
was ably supported by O'Connor, Salmon
and Cook. Moylan, Coyle and Ward were
very effective with the stick. Cox and
Francis did the best work for the home
team. Following is the score

A bath Recommended.

The following is the horror perpetrated
by a ~well-known Scottish baronet. A
German sportsman said to him the other
day: Talking about dogs with keen
scent, / have one in Germany that will
compare favorably with any you have
in England"
"vfry remarkable dog, I suppose?'
yawred the listener.
II should say SO. The day after I left
home. he broke his chain, and although
! had been away for hours, he tracked
me and found me merely by ascent.
What do you think of that?'
II think you ought to take a BATH"
replied the Caledonian, turning calmly
away.-Exchange.

It is said that a woman now living

recently lived with Heimer, is the cause
of the trouble. Heimer was held in

The vote of the proposed new Fifth

dividing the vote of the old Seventh. as
IL Is understood that the proposed divi-

vote. The new First ward would have
142 more votes than the combined
Fourth. Fifth and Seventh wards un-
der the new plan. 1t will also be- no.
ticed that last spring the vote of the
Third ward was the largest OF any
ward In the city, yet II Is proposed to
increase this vote by joining II to the

The average vote of each ward last
spring was GAL 1t will be seen that the
First ward was a little under the aver
age. but not so much under the Fourth
and Sixth wards. The Eighth ward
was also under the average. The
dominant element" however does not
propose to interfere with the Fourth,
Sixth and Eighth wards. 1t is the
First ward which concerns them. Also
the Third. The Third ward vote was
nearly 200 above the average. yet II is
proposed to combine these two wards.
The combined vote of the two wards
which the administration proposes to
merge into one was last spring nearly
100 votes more than the average vote
OF two wards. The combined ward
would be by far the largest ward in
the city and. with the increase arising
from Pete Hale's boarding house, which
brings into Butte many who formerly
lived out Of the city. would be very
nearly equal to the combined Fourth.

Safe-BlowinE Case Ready for Defens,
Testimony.

SaIe-blOw1n8 Case Ready Tor Defen1e
Testimony.
The trial of Charles Auffort and Edward
Desmond, the alleged safe blowers, was
adjourned yesterday afternoon until Mon
day morning, when the defense will call
their witnesses to the stand. In explaining
the theory of the defense to the jury yes
terday afternoon. Mr.. Lipscomb stated that
they would expect to show that Billy Will
liams was really the head of a gang Of
crooks. who made their headquarters at
Jackson City, and that Dempsey and Jack
Bolan. the pugilists were his pals. The
defense would not deny that the office of
the Washington Steamboat Company had
been robbed at the time and in the manner
described by the government, nor would
they deny that Williams was present ard
participated in the robbery. But they
would deny most emphatically that either
Auffort or Desmond participated in the
robbery Williams confessions, said Mr..
Lipscomb, were the result of an artful
dodge concocted by Williams in the quiet
ude Of the Jail to save himself from the
penitentiary. Williams statements, de-
clared Mr.. Lipscomb, were lies from begin
ming to end, and he was confident that the
jury would not convict anyone on such
testimony. Most of the testimony offered
by the government, said Mr.. Lipscomb,
was no better than Of Williams Auffort,
he said. was a native of the city, a hard
working young man, and one who had
never been convicted of crime. Desmond,

alias Brandon, the Jackson City witness,
on the stand, should she be found.
