Bic Handhall Game.

Chicago, June 13.-Wiiliam Carney of
Chicago, champion handball player of
the west, this afternoon took six
games out of the series of seven
played. from James Fitzgerald, cham
pion of Ireland The match is for $500
side and the championship of the
world. A large crowd witnessed the
contest and the champion from Traiee
was a pronounced favorite over the To-
cal man. Old-time players figured that
it would be only an exercise game for
Fitzgerald but the showing made by
Carney completely upset the calcula-
tions made by the wise In every par
ticular Carney was the superior man,
with the possible exception of tossing
the ball. While several of the scores
were decidedly one-sided. the games
were intensely interesting. Hardly a
tally was scored without half a dozen
passes being made. and in several in
stances the bail was put up ten times
before an ace vas scored On the hand
out. II is said that the frishman held
Carney cheaply and neglected his train
ing somewhat. as ne had been informed
that the Chicagoan was mere novice
when oitted against a man with big
reputation. The score:

Leavenworth, Kan, June 13.-Since
the explosion at the Soldiers home it
has developed that the life of Major
Shockley, treasurer of the Soldiers
home, was threatened by Joseph W.
Oliver, the veteran now under arrest
for placing the dynamite bomb near
the Smith residence. divers pension
has been held back. and he made the
threat in the presence of Delwyn
Parker, ShockIey's chief clerk. At d
recent payday the home officials
learned of a plot to hold ur the pay
master in the woods north of the Sol
diers' home while removing the pen
sion money. amounting TO $4,000, from
Leavenworth to the home
Oliver told a comrade that he was
the originator of the plot, and that
only for the police protection accorded
the paymaSter it would have succeeded
lunatic and no attempt was made to
arrest him.
Today Oliver was induced to talk
for the first time since the arrest. He
related a long list of supposed wrongs
the governor had done him, and ended
by declaring his innocence.
The national board of managers OF
the Soldiers home is expected to ar
rive here Monday or Tuesday on its
annual tour of inspection and to make
arrangements for the transfer of Gov
ernOr Smith to the Pacific branch at
Santa Monica, Cal Governor Smith
stated today that nothing would be
done toward clearing up the wreck of
his residence until after the board
should view it and make arrangements
for rebuilding the shattered structure.
Governor Smith feels very anxious over
the situation and said:

Nohodv Cares About Her.

New York, June 1S.-No one called at
the morgue today to identify the body
of the old lady who shot herself on
Saturday in the vestibule of the Cal
vary church. That fact makes it seem
likely nat she did not live in New
York or in its vicinity, for all the news
papers published long accounts of the
suicide.
The suicide was probably so years
old. She was pleasant faced, and her
figure indicated robust health. Her
hands were soft and white, not the
hands of woman accustomed to men
ial work.
The brooch which was pawned to get
the money to buy the revolver with,
seems to be the most likely clew. On
il were two hand-painted miniature
portraits. One is of a woman of per-
haps 50 and the other of a girl of per
haps 10. The costumes and the hair
dressing are of the styles of 80 or 40
years ago.

THE WHEEL.

New York. June 13.-Edward S. Ed
wards, the Welsh rider of the Century
Wheelmen of New York City, raised
the American record for "A hours road
riding to $40 2-5 miles today. The next
best previous record. 3l4 miles, was
made by Smith at Baltimore several
weeks ago.
Edwards rode over the track known
as the Elizabeth Railway course, a
distance of u miles, in Union county.
The roads are macadamized, but four
miles are undergoing repairs, making
the riding in that portion bad.
Edwards started at 6 o'clock Satur-
day night from Bauers' hotel, near
Elizabeth.
The race was held under the auspices
of the Century Wheelmen of New
York and members of the club paced
their plucky rider with singles, tan
dems and triplets.
Edwards rode the same wheel
throughout, a new sprocket wheel be-
ing put in during the morning.
