AT the jersey CbtysHandbail Court yes
teriay there was a large gathering Of
players and others interested i'm the game.
This amateur tournament held last week
has evidently brought about a boom I'm the
sport, as the interest was greater than
even on club day. Michael Egan, the
young champion, was congratulated, and
his friends were loud in the praise of his
cleverness. He displayed his handsome
trophy time and again, and it vas very
much admired. 1t is the regular champion

packed. The young champion paired with
John Bergen against Pat Barrett and Pat

BRIDGETON, a II, 1S97.-The general
belief that State Senator Edward C.
Stokes is to be h successor of Sec
rotary of State Henry c. Kelsey is given
its .quietus by the Senator himself.
While in Bridgeton last night he said
he had received positive information
during the day that Governor Griggs
would not select him~for the honor. Who
will be appointed the Senator was not
able to say, nor was he willing to ex-
press any opinion as to whether he was
to receive any other position.
Senator Stokes has been all along
considered as the next Secretary, the
Trenton correspondents and the know
ing politicians having agreed that he
was to have this as a reward for his
faithful and yaluable services in the
campaign for Governor, for able aid in
previous battles and in the fight for
sound money last fall. Governor Griggs
is his warm personal friend, and the
new turn of affairs is somewhat puzzling.

1t was a wonderfully close contest and

Orftani Field Club rolled a high game,
but the pace was easy for the oarsmen
and they rolled out with an average of

Rarry Losf I'd Rrennan.

Saturday night at the tournament of
the Greenwood Athletic Club in Brook
lyn Park, Barry of this city and Frank
Brennan of Brooklyn fought a ten round
battle. which was of great interest to
the sports in this city. They had met
before and the result was a draw. The
fight Saturday was harder than ever and
the men did their best. Barry put up a
stiff fight and led in the work for four
rounds when his speed lessened and
Brennan became the aggressor. He fought
hard and forced the Jersey boy hard,
and had clearly the better of It in the last
hal1 of the contest. The fighting was
fast and the pace told on them. Both
rallied in the tenth round and fought I'M
til they were tired. Brennan planted a
hard right on Barry's head which stag
gered him and probably gained the YER
dict of the referee. Spike Sullivan defeat
ed Joe Hopkins in two rounds.

NEW JERSEY DIVISION GROWING
The New Year Promises to BE a
Banner One.


Tine year 1897 promises to be the banner
year of the New Jersey Division of the
League, of American Wheelmen, as the
source from which it draws is member
ship has been largely increased by the
number of people who bought wheels
during the latter part of 1896, but as yet
have had very little use for them and
therefore are not acquainted with the
many benefits derived from membership
in this excellent organization.
Che coming year is likely to bring be-
fore the public, in the name of the
League, a convenience that will be appre-
ciated by all cyclists-the baggage bill,
which will be taken to the Legislature
for passage. 1t calls for the free trans
p~ortation of bicycles by all railroads and
steamboats, i'm this State, when accom-
panied by the owners. Some Of the com
panies now carry them free, but others
insist on charging for them. The League
asks@'Is it easier to carry a trunk
weighing $50 pounds free of charge, or a
bicycle Weighing 20 pounds? We want
this measure put through the Legislature,
as we consider that a man taking his
VIII eel on a train should be treated the
SAL ne as the statesmen for some business
no uses, who carry with them in trunks
20 .mpleS or the1r wares Which sometimes
Weigh as much as half a dozen bicycles,
ind take up much more room"
One of the most enthusiastic and ardent
workers for the5New Jersey Division is
Harry Frippett, Town Clerk of Mont
clair. Mr.. -Tripnett made a visit on New
Years Day from Montclair to Paterson
through mud enough to cover twenty
men from head to foot, and all this for
the good of the division. 1t would be a
good thing If THE State had many more
just such men.
The first prize In the League in this
State will be a tandem to the member
who gets the most members, or a tan
dem to every member who brings into
the division $50 new members, a high
i grade wheel to every member who gets
$50 new members; and so the premiums
will go down, verifying In value until they
reach the small number of one new mem
Der, for. which there will also be a prize.
A member working for any premium will
only need to instruct the secretary which
one he wants., and d strict account will
be kept of all the names he sends in, n
when he reaches the required number the
premium will be forthcoming. New Jer-
sey intends to get up to the compan of
\ the big divisions ri she stands fourth
in number now. Every man who is a
Nheelman and has the interests Of good
roads at heart should join the organiza-
ton and help it along In It's untiring eff
forts in that direction. Application
blanks may be secured from J.E. latter
sail, Trenton Thb cost is 50 for the first
year and 81 for each subsequent year.

two games and IN the first won rather
easily. He met A. Kreuger and gained
the lead with a run Of ID balls on the

things up in the second with a run of
IA, which made Kreuger's friends hope
full. 1t lasted but a short time, however.
Doyle pocksted II balls on the third frame
but Kreuger kept pace with, him. and
the score was even son the fourth. Doyle
