PEQUOT OPERA.

The "Mikado" Given by a Very Capable
 Amateur Company Last Night.
 The presentation of the "Mikado' at the Pequot club house last night by amateur talent was a splendid success. The large dining room in which the performance was given was well filled and all present voted it one of the best entertainments ever given by the or ganization. The cast of characters was the same as has been published, with one exception, that of Miss Hendee, who was unable to be present on account of illness Her place was very acceptably filled by Mrs Mum. Encores were fre- quent and graciously responded to by the recipients. The chorus, which is often a weak spot in an amateur per formance was exceptionally good, and this feature added much to the success oI the production. Mrs. Nellie Carey Reynolds, of Hartford, who had charge of the production, deserves much credit for the success of her efforts. c. Frank lin Pierce, the organist of Grace church, was the musical director
 The performance will be repeated to- night

Y4LH'S. FINE TICTORT.
Defeated Harvard in Basketball in One of the Best Games Ever Played Here.


 The Yale and Harvard basketball teams met in the Yale gymnasium last night and the former won by the score of 34 to 2l. The game was one of the most interesting ever played in New Haven and will go a long way toward landing the intercollegiate champion ship in New Haven. Yale has now won four games and lost nine, They lead the league, being one game ahead of Princeton.
 r. The game last night was attended by about 300 people, all of whom were key ed up to the highest pitch of excite ment during the game. The team work of the Harvard players seemed to be better at most stages of the game, but their throwing for the basket was not up to the high standard that was set by the Yale players. In the second half the Harvard men seemed to have all the advantage in getting under the baskets, but they lost many goals by very narrow margins. Yale, on the other hand, was playing in Harvard territory nearly all the half, but when the ball started down the floor in the hands of Yale men it nearly always landed ir the basket.
 For Yale Colton, Hyatt and Lockwood played the best game and for Harvard the best playing was done by Smith and Randall. Following is the lineup and score:

Candidates for the Yale Team Will be
 Called Out Tonight
 All of the candidates for the Yale baseball team will be called out at a meeting to be held tonight in Osborn hall, at which ex-Captain Case '94 and Walter F. Carter '95, the great tWirler, will speak These two old Yale players will try to stir up interest in the many baseball candidates in the university and it is their intention to have win ming team here this year. The last two years have been disastrous to Yale as far as baseball is concerned, and it is thought that by the appearance of prominent baseball alumni of the uni versity, considerable interest can be aroused. Captain Guernsey will preside at the meeting to- night and it is hoped that every candidate for the team will turn out and make the meeting big success. The cage work for the candi- dates for the university team will com mence in few days.

Cleveland, July 24.-Three favorites and an outsider won at Grand circuit meeting to-day, the races being charac- terized either by close finishes or sen- sational times. Darwin was the selec- tion for the opening race and Lord Marsh was the second choice. The show ing made by the Geers entry in the first two heats caused break of the money toward him. He was all in after the first of the third mile had been raced, and then caught the flag on the next trip Wentworth loomed up in the third heat and was able to outfoot Darwin, always the contender.
 Daphne Dallas was made the favorite in the 2:11 pace with Dick See as a strong second.

ON EYE OF BIG FIGHT.
Both Principals Assert They Are in
 Prime Condition.

San Francisco. July 24.-The eve of the heavyweight championship fight finds both of the principals asserting that they are in prime condition. Both are equally confident of getting the de- cision. Neither sees how he can lose.
 Both Jeffries and Fitzsimmons spent the day quietly, cutting out all work. Jeffries said:
 My training is over and I am glad of it. I never felt better in my life and I don't see how I can lose. I am pleased to hear that F!tzsimmons is in good condition, and I hope to prove to the world that the dope story he sprung last time was without foundation. I have not been able to let myself out in my training and I look forward with pleasure for the chance to cut loose for keeps. If I win I intend to keep on fighting as long as there is anyone to fight. I am also satisfied with the referee. Tomorrow night will settle everything and may tNe best man win. !"
 Fitzsimmons said: "I see by the morn ing papers that Delaney says that all I want is the short end. It has always been the short end that have had be- fore the contest, but they have always turned out to be very long ends when the fights have been finished. What want, and what am going to get Is the championship. That is everything to fna'

JUDGE JACK SONS DECISION.
UMother" Jones and Seven Others
 Found Guilty of Contempt.

Parkersburg, W. Va, July 24.-Judge Jackson in the United States district court to-day held Mother" Jones and seven other organizers of the United Mine Workers and a number of Hun garian miners guilty of contempt and violating his restraining order of June 19, and passed sentence on them of from sixty to ninety days in jail with the ex- ception of Mother" Jones and the Hun garians.
 Counsel for the imprisoned miners are preparing for habeas corpus proceed ings in the United States court of ap- peals at Richmond, Va, alleging that Judge Jackson had no jurisdiction in the cases of Mother" Jones and her associates.
 While the sentences given to-day are considered severe, it is anticipated that Judge Jackson will deal firmly with w. Workers, who has also been held in cont empt, but who is at his headquar- ters in Indianapolis. District Attorney Blizzard to-day filed an affidavit that Secretary W. B. Wilson violated the re- straining order of June 19 by making an inflammatory speech at Clarksburg, July ', and another at Fairmont, July 8, and asked the court for his arrest. Judge Jackson made the order that Wilson be arrested and brought within the jurisdiction of his court.

MAY YOHE SAILS FOR EUROPE
Belief That There is to be a Reconciif-
 alton.

New York, July 24.-May Yohe cre- ated another sensation to-day by sail | ing for Europe under an assumed name. She had hoped to elude the newspaper reporters but they were promptly on hand to bid adieu to the woman whose relations with Captain Putnam BradIee Strong have aroused such general com- ment.
 The Hamburg American line steamer
 Furst Bismarck, which left Hoboken at 10 o'clock, took the Yohe woman away. She occupied room No. 39, and went under the name of Mrs. Bachelor. The mother of the woman accompanied her to the pier, but did not sail with her. The former wife of Lord Francis Hope is probably bound to London, and fea- ture of the case is that news has been received in this city that Captain Strong has been located there. These facts strengthen the belief that there is to be a reconciliation.
 It was May Yohes intention to take a travelling companion with her. Yester- day afternoon the woman engaged 1 transportation for herself and one com panion." She notified the purser of the ship early to-day that she would travel alone, and asked that the price of the ticket for her companion be placed to her credit.
 The original ticket as taken out was for Cherbourg and no change was made in the destination when the words 'and companion" were erased to-day. It was stated before the ship started that a colored porter and two private detect ives had accompanied the woman to the pier but it was afterward learned that this was not fact.
 Miss Yohe was attired in a gaudv jacket of blue, trimmed with gold braid on the lower part of the sleeves, a blue skirt and an enormous picture hat, over which was draped brown veil. As the
 ship backed into the stream May Yohe stood alongside the starboard rail under davit and waved her handkerchief to
 her mother on the pier.
 Several reporters approached the actress as she stood on deck and asked for an interview, but she turned abruptly on her heel and walked away. Few of the passengers knew who the woman was.
 The opinion prevails that the couple are to meet in London or Paris and then in all probability go together to Japan.
 The Yohe woman left her home in Hastings yesterday morning and did not return. After midnight three trunks said to belong to her were car ried away on wagon from Hastings and taken in the direction of Yonkers. District Attorney Jerome said to-day that he was not contemplating placing the Strong-Yohe case before the grand jury with view to causing the indict- ment of any person or persons for com-
 pounding a felony.
 An amiCable arrangement appears to have been arrived at between the vari- ous parties interested" he said, and so far as see it has been done without committing any crime. The lawyers
 have got together and arranged the matter, and it is certainly reasonable to
 suppose they have done so without breaking the law in any way, for they
 re both men of repute. I do not pur-
 pose laying the case before the grand jury"
