Players Later, But Not Now.

The game Of basketball, which was to
have taken place on the 9th instant be-
tween the teams of the Young Mems
Christian Association and the Regimental
Armory. has been indefinitely postponed,
owing TO the action OF the directorate OF
the association In refusing to allow the
bows OF that institution to meet the boys
of the Armory. No reason was assigned
for this action, but Secretary Mckee
said TO a Dispatch reporter that 1t had
been decided to put stop to the game
until later in the season, when II Is as

THE DEEP RUN CLUBS MEET.
Three Runs Yesterday Afternoon
One of Them Quite Exciting.

The Deep Run Hunt Club met at the
Kennels yesterday afternoon, and had
three capital runs. About forty peo-
ple were in the field, including several
farmers. This latter circumstance was
particularly gratifying, az it serves to
demonstrate the excellent feeling that
exists between the club and the land
owners.
The first run was from the clubhouse
TO the Brooke bridge. AT this point a
bagged fox was turned loose ana gave
the huntsmen a lively gallop, though,
rather. a short one, for poor Reynard
had travelled scarcely a mile before
death overlook him. The breyity Of the
run was somewhat Of a disappointment
and II was decided to make another drag
with the fox, and lay the course past
Rloomingdale back TO the clubhouse.
This run was a very fast one, ana
the Afternoons sport was brought to "a
close shortly after o'clock. The usual
receptlon followed, and the members
felicitated themselves on one Of the live
LEST and pleasantest days of the season.

up the situation exactly.
"A Pair of Jacks" Is described as "a

plot OF the piece deals with a case Of
mistaken identity.

a Late Day

Although the pays drawn by large

were very SMALL still number Of the men
managed to get enough to go on a spree, and
among them was one Jere, Ieigler, of Boston
Run. He had several drinks i'm him when
ne met Enoch Seibert, on one Of the streets
and assaulted him. The latter was at loss to
understand the attack and failed to recognize
his assailant. Zeiger was arrested and
taken before Justice Cardin When searched
the mans pockets we're full of stones and be
was evidently prepared for trouble Upon
being interrogated as to the cause Of the as
sault he stated that several years ago when
he and Seibert were boys and worked at the
Boston Run breaker Seibert was the larger
of the two and whipped him. Now that both
have attained manhood he felt confident he
could take satisfaction out Of Seibert and he
met him Saturday night for the FIRST time in
many years. Justice Cardin put Zeigler
under 5000 bail for trial at court.
Larry Conscience displayed little of it Sat
urday night when in the saloon of John
Tissok, on South Main street. He beat the
proprietor and smashed window. Con
science paid for the damage and costs before
Justice Cardin.
Fannie Patchulis was arrested for drunken
ness ana nuisance Saturday night by Police
men Goodman and Foltz. She proved tor
ment to the officers and they had to carry her
to the lookup. Fannie spends a great deal Of
her time in Jail and was only released from
that place last Thursday. She is now serving
time in the lookup.
Two arrests were made yesterday for fight
ing on the streets. The prisoners were Peter
Sunkawicz and Hep. Collessa and each was
put under $500 bail for trial.
AT about 1870 o'clock Saturday night a
gang of about fifteen young men assembled
at the corner of Coal and West streets and
made the night one of torment to the resi-
dents Of the vicinity. They seemed disposed
to have a general fight until Watchman
Creary appeared and dispersed them.

CONDITION OF THE MINERS.



This Week.
The Legislative investigation into the con.
dition of the Anthracite miners will begin
this week. The commission will organize in
Harrisburg and it is expected that sessions
will be held in Pottsyille, Shamokin, Shen-
and0ah, Hazeton, Pittston, Wilkesbarre and
Scranton. The Anthracite commission con
sists of Major j Roberts, Jr., Of Wilkesbarre;
Thomas Dunley, of Philadelphia, and j. c.
Campbell of the House, and Senators Mere
dith and Cochran Of the Senate
Concerning the investigation the Wilkes
barre Record of Saturday contained the
following interview with Major Roberts
Mr. Roberts was asked what the committee
intends accomplishing, and he said: 'The
commission was appointed for the purpose Of
ascertaining the cause of the idleness of the
thousands of miners the reason for the few
days of work, the cause of the general de-
preston, and when these reasons are ascer-
tanned to suggest if possible, remedies for
bettering the condition of the miners.
I'm my opinion the commission will not
accomplish much, if anything. The whole
root and basis of this depression is overpro-
duction, as all well know, and how are You
going to remedy that unless you create a
wider market for the coal? The depression
is greater now than it has been for years, for
the simple reason that many more factories
are idle than tAere have been for years, and
of course this has great effect on the coal
market.
He also expressed himself as strongly Op-
posed to the Coyle mine commission bill, as
it creates too many useless offices, but favored
the measure endorsed by Governor Hastings,
which he thinks will become law.

Ironworkers' Strike in Pittsbure.

Pittsburg, April 5.--Several mills and

be drawn into the labor troubles which

to start the mill with whatever men
