Basket Ball.

The Manton A. A., of Phila, proved very
easy last Saturday night and were defeated
bya score of IA to 2. The visitors scored the
only goal in the first half The visitors
said this was their second game, but this
information was hardly necessary as the
game they put up showed the fact very
plainly. This fact does not take any credit
from Co. Els victory as they put up fast
game.
The Monterey A. A. are scheduled for
next Saturday night
Camden defeated Millville last Saturday
night in a one-sided game by score of %
to 6. The usual kicks about the rules, as
is the case in the Camden games delayed
the game until after nine o'clock. Camden
won by their superiority at long passing,
which is especially adapted to their spa
cious floor.
1t now looks as if Trenton and Camden
would not meet again this year. Trenton
wants to play seven men and Camden
wants only five on side. Camden says
it is against the rnles, but anyone who saw
the game with Melville know how much
they care for rules. They want rules
when they benefit them.

RANDOLPH RESIDENCE
Almost Destroyed by Fire Started from
 Lamp Explosion.

The residence of Richard Randolph, in Thirteenth avenue, between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets, south, was almost totally destroyed by fire about Il o'clock last night, originating from the explosion of lamp in the servants room on the second floor of the building.
 An effort was made to extinguish the flames without turning in an alarm and after about half an hours work the flames were subdued and the fire thought to be out. A few minutes later the roof was discovered on fire, having worked through the walls. An alarm was turned in and the southside department responded promptly and did effective work.
 MT. Randolph succeeded in saving some household goods, which were damaged, however, by breakage and water.
 The entire upper story of the house was burned The loss will amount to several thousand dollars, partially covered by in- Surance.

GEORGE w. M'GAFFIN.
Sergeant-Major Ninth U. S. Infantry Writes Following Interesting Letter.

Messrs. A. R. Dearborn & Co.,, Agents the smith Premier Typewriter Co.,, Birming- ham, Ala:
 Gentlemen-It has been my privilege and pleasure to use your make of machine for number of years. The Smith Premier Typewriter has always given entire satis- faction.
 It affords me great pleasure to state that l have had with me during the en- tire campaign one of your typewritetrs nave used 1t unceasingly in all kinds of weather, usually in the open or in tents At Tampa, Fla, where the air was ever nlled with sand and dust; at sea during our eighteen days voyage to Cuba. sub- Jected to the varying conditions of an ocean voyage; during the trying days of the assault on. seize and capture of Santiago de Cuba. and our occupation of this Span- lsh stronghold; at sea again with us m our return journey on the Steamship St LOUIS; and at Camp Wfkoff during our en- tre stay at that place, and eventuallv back to the starting point. this faitbf,;,l mechanical friend has campaigned if AiWays ready, always willing always to be depended upon, servant or confidanf. if VII. was aIways alike l had no spare parts out used bacon grease and when the Iat- ter was not to be had I did without hnt the machine served just the same. Battle scared travel-worn after a five months trip such as no machine has ever seen before. 1t is as good today as ever and like the rest of the war-worn veterans ready to take its place in the front rank and start for the front again.
 Yours sincerely,

shoes while In the Magic City the other day but none of the shoes made for Blr- mingham's hustling citizens would 1t him; they were all too large He tried a number of stores, but with the same result. He was about to give it up and continue wear ing his old Atlanta shoes, but about this time he was struck with a happy idea. He went over to the ladies department of one of the stores, and had the clerk fit him out in dainty pair of shoes manufactured expressly for the benefit of Birmingham's gentler sex. He got them in little heavier leather than young ladies are in the habit of wearing, in order to give them as manish appearance as possible.
 Having shod himself with his new pur- chase, he went straight on up to the South ern club, and it wasn't five minutes before the critical eye of one of the other clubmen spotted the French heel which adorned the rear end of his sole, and from then on as may be imagined, he was worried unmer- cifully.
 He had an engagement to call on a young lady that night, and he was compelled to go in his female shoes. He had hardly seated himself before the young lady--as is cus- tomary with the charming dears-had taken in every detail of his dress, from his Prince Albert coat, down to and including his shoes. It was not the toe that gave him away so readily, for 1t was the regulation, pointed patent leather variety, but the graceful curve of the French heel told the fatal secret.
 The young gentleman left Birmingham for Atlanta the next morning, and his friends at the club have it that he didn't even tell his fair friend of the evening before that he was going to leave the city.

SHOOTING AFFRAY
 IN A STREET GAR Conductor BObO Received Wound in
 the Body. TWO NEGROES ATTACK HIM Fired Into a Car Crowded With Pas
 SGnSeTS.
TWO NEGROES ATTACK HIM
HE vOLLEY WAS RETURN. D
Negroes Escaped in the Darkness as Soldiers and the Conductor Shot at Them-Bobos Injuries
 Not Considered Serious.

A serious affray took place last night about 11:4O o'clock out on the East Lake car line in which Conductor S. l.. Bobo was shot through the body by an un- known negro.
 The difficulty began about 7:SO o'clock The negro and his wife got on the car in the city at that time, and it is said that Bobo corrected the woman for samming scented the correction, words followed and the negro is said to have made an attempt to draw a gun. Bobo immediately jerked his own gun and struck the negro, driving negro received number of scalp wounds by this treatment and got off the train at Woodlawn to have his injuries dressed On a later trip he was seen hanging around the station at that place waiting for Bobos car to come along.
 At 11:S0 last night it seems that he found his opportunity, and, accompanied by an- other negro, also unknown, boarded Bobo's car at Parker's station. He beckoned to the conductor to come out on the platform, saying that he wanted to talk to him about the difficulty. Bobo was a little slow in coming out, and the injured negro's assist ant entered the car and grabbed him around the waist. At the same time the other negro fired two shots at Bobo, one Of ctr io bo rt of the stomach and penetrating the body, coming out at the rear of his thigh.
 Made Oh in the Dark
 Both negroes jumped off the car imme- diately, each on a different side and broke into run. Bobo by this time had gotten out his pistol, and he fired several shots at his fleeing assailants and thinks he struck one of them. The car into which the negro fired was crowded with passengers and it seems miraculous that no one else was struck. Several soldiers who were on the car also had pistols and they let loose two or three volleys at the negroes
 Hobo was brought back into the city im- mediately, and taken to the Wilson and Brown infirmary. His injuries, though painful are not fatal. He lives at College Station East Lake, where his wife and child also reside
 The sheriff's office was immediately noti- fled of the affair, and it was only a short while before several deputies with the county dogs were on the scene of the shoot ing near Woodawn, endeavoring to trace the negroes. At last reports this morning they had not been captured
 The negro who did the shooting was rath- CT tall and light complicated. An accurate description of the other negro could not be obtained, except that he was smaller than the other negro. It is supposed that all of them live in or near Woodlawn.

~THE PLAY0

Stuart in '1492" played to two small au- diences at O'Brien's yesterday, matinee and night. The excellent specialties and other features furnished abundant amusement. Mention of the attraction would not be complete without saying something of the singing of Miss Kent and MT. Bernes.
 The London Gaiety Girls Extravaganza company will hold the boards of O'Brien' s Thursday night
 Funny comedians, pretty girls, catchy music and high class specialties are some of the good things promised with the "Gaiety iGrls."
 A distinct novelty will be seen in Miss nolla White, who, it is claimed, is the greatest lady bag puncher in the world. In fact, the manager desires to put up $25 if any local bag puncher can excel Miss White in this work.
 The olio will be especially attractive, in- cludng Alex Wilson, Countess Sisters Me- Avoy & Gilson, Gus Mills, Tot Guichard and host of other quite as well known vaudeville artists.
