SOME FOOTBALL NEWS.
Six st. Louis College Boys Go on the
Punahou Team.

At least six of the st. Louis Col
lege footballists will play on the Pun
ahou team this year. They are c. A.
Long, John Lane, Prince Cupid, An
tone Lawrence, David Dayton and
Chris Holt. The other college players
will be taken in by the Regiment club.
There is considerable controversy
relative to the disbandment of the
st. Louis College club. Carlo Long
states that had the Town team relin-
quished George Angus or some other
good player who could have handled
the college boys it would have been
all right. When VIII Soper went to
Oahu plantation that left them with
out head.
No blame attaches to Captain VIII
Cornwell of the Town team relative TO
this matter. He could not release any
of his men without the consent of the
association. He states that Angus
never promised to go over to the st.
Louis club and besides the Townies
are short of good PLAYERS.

MANAGER OF CYCLOMERE ISSUES
THE RULES.
What the Riders Must and Must Not
Do-Different Races are Defined
Cali for Manly Sport.

The rules governing the races at
Cyclomere Park track are out. They
call for clean-cut manly sport. After
describing the powers and duties of
the track officials, an explanation is
made of the position, starts, finish, r.
ding, protests and time limits.

bers and are not limited to the cnoice
of costumes.
A definition of the races is then Ia
ken up.

meet.

Sition in a track race of trial heat IN
the same or better time than the olGss

three men shall be taken at the finish
of every lap. The first man shall score
three points. the second man shall

CONFIRMATION AT ST. MARY'S.
SCENE AT BISHOP
MONAGHAN'S FIRST OFFICIAL
FUNCTION AT THAT CHURCH.

Last evening, at the vesper service.
Bishop j. ]. Monaghan confirmed a
large class Of boys and girls, the latter
tastefully attired in their first com
munion gowns of white with flowing
wells, and each carrying q handsome
bouquet of flowers.
This was the first official function OF
the newly-installed bishop at ST.
Mary's and the impression made upon
the large audience was intensely
pleasing
The instructions given by the bishop
were delivered in a fine, clear voice
that could be distinctly heard all over
the auditorium, and contained the sim
pie truths that rifting and drifting
down through the centuries have been
the strength and safeguards of millions
of Catholics. In the sanctuary a num-
ber of prominent priests of the diocese
assisted the bishop in the ceremonies.
Director Conway had under his baton
full choir of singers but for some rea-
son more reliance was placed upon the
singing of the choir chOruses than was
the enjoyable solos of the leading mem
bers. The exception to this, however,
was the superb rendition of 20. Salu-
taris" by Miss Lizzie Schwab at the
benediction.
The other soloists of the evening
were Miss Elizabeth Harmey and

TENTS PUT UP YESTERDAY.
Wilmington is all activity. For

thousands of people are on tiptOe of
excitement. Yesterday the circus ar
rived and it was like some gala
day. From every direction men.
women and children poured into the
space about the freight yard at Fourth
and Church streets to watch the un-
loading of the animals and the circus
apparatus. The small boy was there,
too, as happy as the happiest. He was
on top Of cars, up telegraph poles, and
in every place where the work could be
best presented to his view. But the
boy is an integral part of such an occa-
sion.
Out at Front and Union streets.
where the great circus pitched its tents.
the excitement was just as intense.
The people wandered hither and
thither, looking at the Gagged animals,
watching the men driving the stakes
and raising the tents. Only a few of
the tsnts were put up. They were tho
animal tents for the purpose Of pro.
tecting the horses and menagerie, an
other for cooking purposes and a third
to protect the beautiful show wagons
in case of a storm. The big tent was
raised some time this morning.
The tents cover about twelve acres
of ground and the large one will seat

THE FIGURES INCREASING.
A SHORTAGE OF ABOUT SIS, 900 HAS
ALREADY BEEN UNEARTHED.

BANK DIRECTORS OFFER A RE-
WARD FOR THE ARREST OF WILL
LIAM N. BOGGs-TRoUBLE IN
STORE FOR SOME OF BoGGs' OLD
BONDsMEN.
Dover, June National Bank Ex-
aminer Francis N. Buck and several as
sistants are going over the books of
the First National Bank of Dover to
learn the exact amount of Paying-teller
William ~ Boggs' defalcation. The
examination so far shows that Boggs
steallngs are much larger than first an
nounced, and 1t Is said may reach $75,-
900. The board of directors on Satur-
day held a special meeting and decided
to offer a reward OF $500 for Boggs' ar
rest. At the same time the following
statement was issued by the board.
I'm view OF the fact that the First
National Bank OF Dover has suffered
through the defalcation of a trusted en-
ploye. and in order to allay any feeling
of uncertainty in its depositors. the
board OF directors deem It their duty
to state that, after a thorough exami-
nation Of its affairs, the depositors are
| entirely secure, ana that the bank rs in
a condition to meet any demand upon
It with Its usual promptness"
Although II has been stated that the
American Surety Company, OF New
York, who was on Boggs' bond for $10,-
600, will be liable for only a portion, II
has been discovered that Boggs' steal
ings since September, 1896. when the
company went on his bond, far exceed
the amount OF che bond. It is said that
his bondsmen previous to last year will
be held responsible for the teller's
shortage prior to September. His bonds
men then were Hon. George V. Massey
assistant solicitor Of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company; John NJ. Moore. OF
Kenton; James r. Whittaker's estate
DR.. Smith, of Cheswold, and James D.
Boggs, Of Dover, a stepbrother OF the
missing teller. Although officers Of the
American Surety Company and Pinker.
ton detectives have been hunting fol
Boggs, they have apparently found nc
trace OF his whereabouts. They have
also been endeavoring to obtain pic.
lures OF the missing teller, but without
success.

A WARRANT FOR BOGGS.
Bank Examiner Buck Will
Swear 1t Out To-day.
sTEALINGs WERE OF RECENT DATE

AN EXPLANATION OF THE MAN
NER IN WHICH THE YOUNG
PAYING-TELLER ROBBED THE
BANK AT DOvER-MAY REACH
100000.
II is now believed that Paying-teller
William ~ Boggs, CT the First Ma
tional Bank of Dover, has robbed the
institution of 100000, and that most of
it has been taken within the past year
or two.
This afternoon Bank Examiner Fran
els N. Buck appeared before Clerk S.
Redmond Smith, of the United States
District Court and swore out a warrant
for Boggs' arrest. He has also for
warded his report to the comptroller of
the currency at Washington.
1t is learned that Boggs conducted
his steaiings in such a manner that it
was utterly impossible for the bank ex-
amined to detect them in the discharge
OF his duties. II is said that the blame
attaches to the bank officials for per-
mitting Boggs to serve in three capaci-
ties-paying-teller, receiving telled and
book-keeper.
Mr.. Buck examined the bank on jan
uary IA. AT that time there were no
false or suspicious entries OF any kind.
On February 8. Boggs was transfer
red from the teller's position to the in
dividual ledger at his own request. he
having stated to the bank officials that
in case Of his sickness or absence. or OF
Cashier Bateman's sickness or absence
the bank would be in helpless condi.
tion as no one understood the teller'i
duties but himself. He thought Il very
advisable that another clerk should IA.
miliarize himself with such work II,
would gladly run the individual ledger
during that time. This suggestion wa.
acted upon, and on the day that h,
took charge, which was February g. tn,
false entries began. and they were o
considerable amount
The inference is that Boggs. as teller
acted beth as receiving and paying
teller, and when a deposition woult
bring in a deposit ticket with thl
money accompanying the same H.
would simply put both in his pocket
making no entries of any kind. In thi
manner, it, Of course, did not enter int
the banks accounts in any way and di
not come beneath the notice OF tn
bank examiner. This practice O
, Boggs' accounted for his desire to ge
hold of the individual ledger as in cas-
a depositor should bring his pass-boo
to be balanced, and anyone but Boge
should write il up, a discrepancy woul
- be discovered between the pass-boo
). and the account in the bank book. Tn
l.. presumption is that the way in whic
; the defalcation was continued afte
p February was that when the actin
:, teller would go to lunch Boggs woul
act for him, and having control Of bot
,, ledger and teller's position, he coul
!. very easily write up his stealings.
