MAD; WROTE MISS GOULD.
@. Il. Madden Sent to asylum
Thought He Would Wed Her.
WAS WELL KNOWN IN PITTsBURG.


After writing letters for some time to Miss Helen
Gould, in which he declared his love, George A.
Madden yesterday sent to the Long Island
State Hospital for the Insane by Judge Aspinal in
the County Court, Brooklyn.
Madden last Friday threatened the life of his
niece at his home in Corona, Long Island. and was
taken to Long Island City, where Judge CoLnorton
committed him to the Flatbush Hospital for OBJ
servation. After examination by Drs. J. O'Con-
nell and Sidney D. Welgess, who found him in
sane, he was brought before Judge AspinaH for
commitment
About three years ago Madden was inmate OF
the Flatbush asylum. but succeeded in being re-
leased through habeas corpus proceedings, which
were brought before Justice Gaynor. On regaintng
his liberty he began suit to recover $4,000 dam
ages from the hospital authorities and DR.. Dur
yea for alleged detention The jury in less than
ten minutes brought in a verdict for the defend
ants. He has since been confined in DR.. Car
penter's sanatorium in Flushing.
Among the papers found in the possession OF
Madden. whose haIIucination seems to be that he
is about to be married to Miss Gould. and that she
is deeply in love with him, article pre-
pared for publication, giving account of his
and Miss Goulds marriage, in which he says:
As is well known in her circle of acquaintances.
Miss Gould has believed that she would some day

Madden says in a letter addressed to Miss Gould:

left hand, but it is still in Hoo. But it will be

Madden denied before Judge Aspinall that he had
written TO Miss Gould. but refused TO say who H.
G." is. He remarked that some time ago mes
senger dressed in Mahometan costume called on
him and changed rings with him. but the ring he
gave was the more valuable of the two.

ATLANTIC YACHT
CLUB RACES.
Many Yachtmen Interested and One
Match Between Cracks Made.

Many Yachtmen Interested and One
Match Between Cracks Made.
When asked concerning the yacht
races of the Atlantic Yacht Club to
be held here May l, the secretary said,
yesterday:
1.-THE coming races of the club have
brought forth many inquiries from
various yacht owners and considerable
anxiety is being evinced about not be-
ing able to enate? their boats in time.
The yachts have been laid up all win
ter and there is considerable work to
be done in overhauling sails, looking
over rigging, scraping and painting
hulls and thousand and one things
necessary to be considered.
But to enthusiastic yachtmen those
obstacles are as nothing and two of
the fastest flyers in this part of the
country have already been matched
for race. Those two boats are of
a type all to themselves. They are
known nautically as larks. There are
other boats of almost the same type
which are called swallows and others
again called shipjacks. AS one of our
friends from the interior remarked,
They resemble barn doors with sails
They set very low in the water and
carry tremendous mainsail and jib
and are extremely stiff.
I'VE are informed that the cap
tain of the Flirt, one of the boats
matched, has a spinnaker and balloon
jib equal to the Shamrock III. But
in the Georgiana, the other boat, the
Flirt will surely have run for her
money Too much credit can not be
foi and of the
Flirt for their enthusiasm through for
the doudty little skipper has been tear
ing large holes in the Isle of Hope
river, Just spelling for a scrap.
He will have to throw the chip of
his shoulder, as the skipper of the
Georgiana is looking little vicious
although he is not saying much, put
is putting in his time tuning up. Ana
from the way the Georgiana acted be-
fore the wind last Sunday under main
sail and jib she looks like a winner.
There is no one barred in that race,
however, but we will venture to say
that if they enter they will travel IN
fact company on or off the wind. The
course for the two freaks will be from
a point at the eastern end of the Ca
sino at Thunderbolt to a stake boat
up the river off the northernmost oys-
ter factory on the bluff; thence down
to a stakeboat near Turner's rocks
and back to the starting point.
THAT will give the spectators a full
view of the race from the start to the
finish, the boats being in full view of
the Casino all the time. To give one
an idea of the speed of these two boats
the club invites any naphtha launch
to run them down before the wind,
provided there is a breeze. There is
one more thing we nearly overlooked:
Both shippers of the freaks would like
to 'Meet-her' w. in the race. The
skipper of the last mentioned yacht is
50 unassuming and coy that they have

FELTZ AND THE DOUBLE
CHAMPIONSHIP

sporting Authorities support
FeItz's Contentious.
President T. o. Mcbride of the Sa-
yannah Athletic Club is in receipt of
a letter from Tommy Feltz stating
that he is in prime condition and
means business when he says that he
is after the claimants of the cham
pionship of either the bantam or
featherweights Of the world.
He says that Young Corbett ought
either make the featherweight class
if he wants to claim that championship
or get out of it. Feltz is not alone
in that contention, either, for many
of the best sporting authorities uphold
the argument.
AS a matter of fact nobody expects
Corbett to make anything near the
featherweight top limit of 122 pounds
and it is generally thought that he
ought to be contented to the cham
pionship of the lightweight class
which he is now in. 1t is strongly
thought that McGovern can not make
122 pounds either. There is consider
able contention as to the limits of the
different classes but best authorities
claim lis as the bantam top weight
122 as the feather top weight, and 1873
as the lightweight top limit.
AS to Harry Forbes claim to the
bantamweight championship there
stands the same argument as against
the featherweight claimants. Both
times Feltz met Forbes it was in Chi
cago. He lost both decisions, the first
in fifteen rounds and the second in
six rounds. The first bout was ref
creed by an employee of the club and
the second bout by George Siler of
Chicago. At both bouts all authorities
save the referee thought the decisions
should have gone to Feltz. Forbes
has continually side-stepped a match
with Feltz since.
What the st. LOUIS Globe-Democrat
had to say in last Sundays edition in
regard to Harry Forbes and Siler is
interesting and will throw light on
the subject. 1t is as follows:
Johnny Reagan and Clarence Forbes,
or perhaps Harry Forbes and Abe At
tell, will form the card the following
Thursday. Harry does not want to
meet Reagan; that is, his manager,
John Hertz, does not know whether it
is quite safe to trust the decision of
bout to anybody but Referee George
Siler. The Fort Erie Club wanted TO
match the pair and offered a good
sized purse. Siler does not referee at
that >club, however and Hertz wanted
the Detroit Club to get the bout where
Siler does referee. Siler is honest and
undoubtedly means well, but it is a
well-known fact that where a Chicago
man is concerned he never gets the
worst of it from that gentleman. Siler
made himself very unpopular in this
city by his decisions when the crowds
were not prejudiced either way.

THE TRI-CLUB LEAGUE.

The members of the teams of the
city Tri-Club Baseball League are
putting in as much practice as possible
now to get themselves ready for the
opening of the season. Some have al
ready arranged regular days of prac-
tice and the others will do that this
week.
The squad of the C. L. A. team will
meet Wednesday night at $50 o'clock
at the association hall to elect their
captain and decide upon regular days
for practice. The Chathams are fast
rounding into shape and say they will
be there with the goods when the sea-
son opens.
The Y M c. A team has arranged
two games, to be played next and the
following Saturday, with the Fort
Screven team, for practice. Their prac-
tice with that team will no doubt show
up in the league games. The season
promises to be a lively one and the
members of the team are in hopes that
the attendance will be as large as the
good ball they intend to play will war;
