When the first signals of coming

was later called. He organized in 1854

Mrs. Mack was found to be very sick in
the tombs this afternoon and was visited
in her cell by Warden O'Shea. She told
him that she was unable to eat the prison
fare, and that if she did not get some 9TH
er food she would die of starvation. She
appeared tomb sick and the warden said
he would do what he could for her.
Mrs Mack then told him that she had
money in the care of Acting Inspector
o Brien at headquarters, which had been
taken from her when she was arrested,
and that it had not been given back to
her. She wanted it to buy food for her
self
Warden O'Shea then telegraphed to In
spector 'Brien who said that Mrs Mack
had money there but that she had given
an order for it to her lawyer, Emanuel
Friend. She bad not given any further
orders and he knew he could do nothing
with 1t until he received an order from
Lawyer Friend O'Shea said he would
communicate with Lawyer Friend and
let him know what Mrs. Mack had said as
to her condition and also if what Inspec
tor O. Brien said about the order given to

Match Won by the Phil

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 27.-The
three days cricket match, begun on
Friday morning last, between a picked
team of Philadelphia amateurs and
Capt Warmers English team ended
this afternoon in a victory for the
Philadelphians with four wickets to
spare. The score stood: English, first
inning, 63: second inning, 372. Total,
435 Philadelphia, first inning, 242; sec
ond inning, 1874, with the loss of six
wickets. Total, 1856. The Englishmen
batted in great style in their second
inning and when stumps were drawn
Saturday evening had tailed 2S5 runs
fer the loss of only four wickets. They
could not keep up this average today,
however, and their full quota of wick
cts fell with the addition of only
81 runs, bringing their total for
the inning up to 372 and their grand
total to 435. Head and LeavesongoWer

score was tied when Boston added
another to it's string. Thus far all
was well. Baltimore, it's true, had
lost the lead, but not hopelessly. Then
the visitors forged to the front with
three more tallies. This was bad in
deed, but hope still lived in Baltimore.
And so it ran until that dreadful
seventh inning. Corbett had been
crippled by hot liner early in the
play, Nops had been batted out of the
box a little later, and Hoffer had been
hit for four runs, but still the crowd
hoped on. No one looked for a deluge,
as Hoffer had apparently steadied him.
self, and no runs had been made off
him in TWO successive innings. All at
once it came. Single followed double,
double followed single, player after
player crossed the plate, until the
crowd grew dazed and wondered if it
would ever end. The official scorers
almost lost their count. Hoffer be-
came discouraged and wanted to go
off and sit down. but Capt. Robinson
kept him in the box. Finally the fusil-
lade of hits was ended, Hoffer came
down from the air, everybody took
long breath and the scorers figured out
that Boston had made nine runs, all
Of which were earned. That settled it,
and, although the Champions made a
feeble rally in their half and batted
out three runs. following it up with
two more in the eighth, their efforts
were not of more consequence than are
those of men who strive to whistle up
the wind.
During the volley of base hits in the
seventh, the crowd was a study. AS
the first two or three were made the
vast thrOng looked serious, then as
hits began to pour out like water from
a trough, a smile and then a hearty
laugh broke forth, and none could have
enjoyed the discontinue of the Cham
pions more than did their admirers in
the vast audience. Of the many
hearty and spontaneous bursts of ap-
plause, none were more ringing than
that which greeted Hamilton when,
in the fourth inning, after being
trampled upon and severely stunned
by Jennings at second, he made a
grand run for home on loves single,
collided with Baltimore's f1eshy back
stop and, falling heavily, pluckily
crawled toward the base, almost faint
ing as he touched it. Again, at the
end of the game, ten thousand people
gathered about the visitors, shook
them by the hand, shouted cheerful
pleasantries at them, told them what
good fellows and fine players they
were and finally sent them away with
such a shout of appreciation as made
a fitting climax for the greatest
base ball spectacle Baltimore has ever
seen. Attendance, 25,375. Score:

QUESTION OF AGE.
1t Is Il Mans Which Caused This
Lawsuit.

Special to the Globe.
RED WING, Mimi, Sept. Pin a
suit brought by Johanna Wiberg, the
wife of Peter Wiberg deceased, late
of Taylor's Falls, against the Mime
sofa Scandinavian Relief association,
of this city, to recover $4,000 the
amount of policy in the association
held by the deceased, is involved the
question of whether or not the mis-
statement of age in connection with
securing an insurance policy invali-
dates it. On Dec. 2S, 1882, Wiberg
made application for membership in
the association in connection with
which he stated his age to be fifty
three years, and that he was born in
June 5, 1929. The rules of the associa-
tion at that time placed the ages of
admission at not less than twenty-one
nor more than ffty-fye years. The
plaintiffs claim that he was fifty-three
years of age, the company -eavers is
false; that he was in reality fifty-eight
years of age and was born jan 7, 1926.
In the policy the plaintiff agreed that
if any fraudulent or untrue statements
had been made in connection with the
application, he would forfeit all rights
to any benefits there under. The COM
pany claim that untrue statements
were made and that the plaintiff is
not entitled to recover anything save
the sum of s372.4o, paid as assess
ments and dues under the policy.
