COL. CHARLES DENBY.
Rumor Has It That He Will Succeed MT. Conger as American Min-

Col. Charles Denby will return to China, it is rumored, as minister plen- ipotentiary in the place of Edwin H. Conger. MT. Conger has not resigned, and it is known that he speaks of returning to Picking in his official capacity. At the same time it is as serted that the Peking mission was offered to John Goodnow, now consul general at Shanghai, who refused be- cause of the difference in the sal aries, his present post paying $20,- 900, while that at Peking draws only $12,00O. Col. Denby made brilliant success of the Chinese mission during the 13 years he held it. He was ap- pointed by President Cleveland in 1885. President Harrison recalled him and appointed Henry w.

MADE A BAD BREAK.
Yet A1gernon Cannot Understand Why He Is No Longer Liked by
 xhe Elafoft Family

 \ Algernon wonders why the Elliott family seems to dislike him. He has Nbeen in love with Miss Elliott for more than year. When he first fell in love with her he decided that it would be wise thing to. make up'' to her mother. Mrs. Elliott was a comparatively young woman, whose ambition it was to appear even more youthful than she really was.
 When Mrs. Elliott asked Algernon to dinner one day he felt that he was really getting along. The appoint ment was for Wednesday of the sue ceeding week Several days before the appointed time he happened to meet Mrs. Elliott on the street.
 '.I'm sorry" she said to him, sbut little Johnny is quite ill and I'll have to. ask you to postpone dining with us for a few days. I'll write and let you know"
 Don't speak of it, said Algernon, with what was intended to be elab-

CITY AMATEUR NOTES.

Manager Joseph Reid of the Jefferson baseball team has two games scheduled for this week. On the afternoon of De coration day they play the strong Dub lins of Meriden at Hanover park i'll con- nection with an excursion which is giv- en by the Merrimac club of this city to Hanover park. On Saturday after noon they play in Meriden.
 The Oakvilles need to be strengthen ed. They are weak at the bat.
 The Jeffersons are playing in hard luck With the exception of one or two positions, the team is a strong one.
 Henebry of the St Joseph's is play ing star game. In the game Sum- day, he had five hits.
 Too much kicking against the um- pires is being done by members of several of the teams. This kicking is useless inasmuch as the umpire does not reverse his decision. Tn the majori- ty of the cases, it is unwarranted and unjust since the decisions of the um- pire are all right The spectators do not favor this senseless kicking and the umpires ought to remove one or two of the offenders.
 All the. teams appear to be rather ev- enly matched with the exception of Oakyille.

o,coNNoR,s RECORD JUMP.
The Irish Athlete Said to Have Cleared

l. !. Y
 Edinburgh, May 2S. -O.Connor of nine inches in the Irish. championship games at Balls Bridge yesterday, beating the worlds record of Prinstein of Syracuse.
 If the above is accepted by the Am ateur Athletic association of England it will be another blow to Myer Prin- stein of Syracuse university, whose failure to qualify for the final in the intercollegiate games on last Friday was the surprise of the meet. Prin- stein held the worlds record of twen- ty-four feet seven and one-quarter inches, made at the relay meet of the University of Pennsylvania on April 28, 1900. His figures were accepted by the Amateur Athletic union as san American record and the indorsement of that organization should place the performance in the category of worlds records, although the Intercollegiate A. A. A. A. failed to accept it as col legiate record.
 There are two O'Connors notable in Irish athletics. The one referred to fn the dispatch is probably F. O'Connor, who competed in the English cham pionship broad jump last year under the .colors of the Irish Intacta liar riers. Since the breaking down of w. J. M. Newburn two seasons ago O'Con- nor has been regarded as the best broad jumper in Ireland. His big per- formance at Balls Bridge, therefore, will not come as a surprise to those who have followed his work at Irish meetings. His jump of twenty-two feet four and half inches at the Eng fish championships was perhaps the nOOraSt made bV him last season. He was placed second to A. c. Kraenzlein of the University of Pennsylvania, whose winning effort was twenty-two feet ten and a quarter inches. Last year O'Connor won the broad jump for Ireland against Scotland and at a small meeting cleared over twenty-four feet. His winning jumps in other competitions were seldom less than twenty three feet.

When Joseph Walcott, the colored middleweight, learned that Thomas Sharkey had entered the wrestling field he asked his manager to match him against the sailor.
 "I'se bit of a grappler maself, boss" said the colored boxer, "an' 1f I doan't fetch him in 10 minutes youse kin hire me out as coachman.
 Thomas O'Rourke was so impressed with the sincerity of Walcott that he announced his willingness to back Walcott against Sharkey in half and half contest, 20 minutes at wrestling and 20 minutes at boxing.

There are 15o miles of electfic rail- ways in Spain, of which Madrid has 16 miles.
 The first practical electric motor ever exhibited was at the Vienna ex- hibition in 1873. It was pump worked by wire 1,4Oo yards long.
 There seems to be an opening for electric fire pumps in many of our large towns. They could be trans. ported to the scene of the conf1agra- ton and power can readily be ob- tained from the trolley wires.

It is his intention to spend the summer there with his family, and during the mast week he has devoted much time fixing the house up. When Milton Rob- lee. an intimate friend of the ex-cham- pion, visited Bob on Sunday he was taken to the top floor and ushered into a large room, which has been nicely fit ted LID as a gymnasium.

When asked whether he will fight any body at Frisco during the summer, Bob said: q don't know what I will do. I may take a rest or I may not.

Trenton, May 28.-The twenty-round bout scheduled between Jack Sullivan of Canada and Harry Berger of this city ended with the third, when Sulli- van transferred his point of attack to Referee Crowhurst. The men repeated ly refused to break when told by the referee, and in the third round, after he had ordered them three times to break, Crowhurst finally succeeded in getting them apart by stepping between them and vigorously using his arms and legs. As he, did so he was struck in the mouth by Sullivan. For this the decision was given to Berger. Bull dog. tactics prevailed throughout the bout

When the match was made it was agreed to have it come oft in private and to aI-. low Al, Smith, with whom Madden posted 1000 as a forfeit, to name a suitable referee. Yesterday in a talk with Ed Homan, the representative of the San Francisco A. c. Madden ask ed the Californian if lie would offer a. purse for the pair to clash at his club. Homan said he would and Madden asked for an incentive of $1,000. Ho- man at once telegraphed to his club mates regarding the amount and ex- poets to receive a Favorable answer in few days. Homan will try to pull off the mill on July 4. He has ar ranged two bouts for his club on that date The first will be between. George Gardiner of Lowell and Jack Moffatt of Chicago, and Rube Ferns who knocked out Matty Matthews the other night at Toronto, and Charley Thurston, a clever welterweight of San Francisco. Both are for 20 rounds and will come off in the open air.

Hereafter only the records of those players who are actually on the payroll of the Waterbury team or who have played in games during the pre- vious week will be recorded. The oth- CT records will be kept on file in the office for future reference. Up to date Waterbury has tried 24 men, and to- day there are but Il men drawing pay. One of that II is Flint, the new ly acquired pitcher. Six pitchers have been released. four second basemen, one shortstop, one center fielder and one third baseman. The pruning has gone on until to-day there is but one position in all probability that needs attention Ruhland at third base has not made success and is not fast enough for this league If Flint makes good our pitching department will be complete Luskey still holds the lead by a big margin in batting, while Clancy has yet to make hls first error in fielding But three men are bat ting over 300. two of those being new corners.
