The Jamesburg record., 1899-09-09

What Cosmopolitan city New York
is was strikingly exemplifed the other
day in Jefferson Market police court.
Two men were answering to charge of
fighting on Seventh avenue. One of
them was Belgian and the other a
Swiss. The policeman who arrested
them was German, the court inter-
prefer Greek, the judge an Ameri-
can and policeman who went to the
assistance of his brother officer in stop
ping the fight an Irishman.

PEACOCK AND RAT.
Former Comes Ont Victor In a Fight
to the FiniAh at the Philadel-
phta Zoo.

IL an encounter with rat one of the
peacocks at the Zoo triumphed after
fierce battle. The peacock was basking
on the lawn in front of the small NAM
NAL house. The rodent had been cir
culating in the vicinity of the house
and made dash to clear the lawn for
a new hunting ground. In some mys-
terious manner it bumped into the pea
cock or attempted to crawl under the
bird. Whichever it did, the result was
the same. A fight ensued, the like of
which has never been witnessed by the
Oldest keepers of the garden.
The peacock was remarkably alert,
Giving his strident call, he made a
plunge at the rat with stretch of his
neck. The rat replied with a vicious
snap at the peacock's neck, disturbing
the harmonious arrangement of the
plumage. Another plunge with it's
beak and the bird scored point. The
rat took alarm at the determination of
its large and beautiful adversary and
started to run. But the peacock was
full of fight and acted as If it had a
grudge of long standing against the
rat. Covering the rodent with one of
its feet, it pulled him back into the
arena, at the same time thrusting its
beak hard against his ribs. The rat
was under his heels and, big as he was,
he was determined to give Brer Rat
finish fight.
Relaxing his grasp upon the rat, the
latter struggled to his fours, making
terrific lunge at the peacock's shins,
then at his legs and then again at his
neck. The peacock seemed affrighted
by the rodents ferocity and nimble-
ness, and for few seconds was unable
to reach it. Finally, however, he got
the rat again under his slim foot. This
time he meant business. So, twisting
his neck, he grabbed the rat by the
throat, squeezing it with his horny
beak till it ceased squealing. After
several tremors of the rats body, the
peacock lifted it's foot and the rat had
passed away.
Triumphant and proud, the peacock
strutted across the lawn to smooth his
rumpled feathers beyond the gaze of
the spectators. The battle had cost him
four of his best sunset feathers.-Phil-
adelphia Times.

NEWS OF THE WHEELMEN.
Charming Weather Brings Out
Many Riders.

The Boulevard presented a very lively
appearance yesterday. The weather was
such as fills the ideal of the enthusiastic
cyclist, and there were many enthusiasts.
The road appealed to the out of town
riders as much as ever and there could be
seen many club runs hat came from
other places. That crowd of speed max
ers thai are we'll known through their
red and black sweaters were on hand as
usual n a little faster than heretofore.
More than the usual number of tandems
and trips carried big punches of pace
seekers up and down the road. The pleas
ure riders were much in evidence and
the mingling of the different colors made
a charming picture.
The Mantle Wheelmen left the club
house yesterday morning and rode to Pas-
sale Falls in a body. The usual game of
bail was played and other interesting fea-
lures helped pass a pleasant day for the
crowd.
The Columbia Club held a run to Alpine
on the Hudson yesterday.
Coney Island was done yesterday by the
Hamilton Wheelmen. Captain Harry
Baker was in the lead and he was fol-
lowed by a very large party.
The Acme Wheelmen left the old club
house in Fourth street for the last time
Yesterday and rode to Plainfield on the
regular run.
Coney Island was the attraction that
brought the Arcanum Wheelmen out yes
terday in a large body.

NEWS OF THE WHEELMEN

The Jersey City team was defeated yes
terday at West End by the Cuban Giants
by a score of 10 to IL. Terry lost the game
in the sixth inning when he was batted
out of the box and Day was put in. Day
was hit enough to Indicate that he will
not do in the position any more than
Terry Will. 1t is not at all likely that
Terry's arm has gone. but he weakened
so badly in the sixth inning that the
colored contingent simply did as they
wished with him. Manager Kelly should
jack him up a little before the next game.
as he has now been the cause of two de-
feats. The fielders on the local team
yesterday played great bali all the time.
Jersey went to the bat first with Ber-
walked and Sullivan got next to Carter's
twist and drove it over the left field fence
for a home run and the three scored. A
pop fly to Brown retired Owings and
Sampson caught F. Smiths fly. Day.
knocked one to Watkins and was caught
out. The cubans came in and were
struck out one. two, three by Terry.
Leonard and Higgins hit too high. Smith,
the Cuban catcher, was out of position
and Umpire Hart sent Terry to first.

was playing off, and Carter, who pitches
left handed, threw him out like a flash.
Carter showed rare ability at this trick.
The Cubans came in in the second and
Drew struck out. Sampson hit to Terry
and was thrown out at first. Thus the
game went along for five innings. In
these five innings the local team scored
six runs and the visitors but one. The
sixth was the inning for the Giants.
Jackson hit, Penno hit and Smith got a
double, on which Jackson and Penno
scored. Smith crossed the rubbe on
Drew's double. and Brown hit. Sampson
planted one before Day, who threw to
first and caught Sampson while Drew
scored. Watkins was hit by the ball, and
Baxter placed a pretty one to deep centre
for two stations. Brown and Sampson
scored. Carriers hit sent Baxter to third
and Jackson's single sent him home.
Penno singled and Smith doubled. They
both scored on Drew's hit. Brown was
thrown out at first and Sampson struck
out. After that inning the Giants played
with more life and the Jersey City team
could do but little. The scorer
