A NOTABLE DIFFERENCE.

When an atrocious crime is commit ted by negro or negroes in a south ern community, the people turn out in body to arrest the guilty parties, and this being done, the miscreants are made the objects of instant and terri ble popular justice, but there is no at tempt or desire to trouble negroes un- connected with the offense. It is only against the guilty that public indig- ma tion is aroused.
 In northern communities, on the con- trary, the perpetration of an atrocious offense by negro seems to arouse feelings of race hostility. The two races immediately come in violent conflict. and the result is that there is open war between the two. This was the case at Belleville. H.: at Peoria, in the same state; at Wilmington, Del; at Evansville. Ind, and whenever there has been trouble of that sort in the northern states. It does not ap- pear whether this is the result of race prejudice or because the negroes in northern communities rise up in, a body to defend the criminals of their race It would be desirable to find out the truth in these matters.

least this was the order yesterday. and the change is all the more significant because last week there were few Cor. bett men in sight. Probably the re- ports from San Francisco that Jeffries is not in the best of trim may have en- couraged the Corbett enthusiasts. Cor ,bett is clever and speedy, and it is fig ured that if Jeffries is not really in the best of trim ssPompadour Jim" may turn the trick. If he should win. he would no doubt retire, and for this req son there are many who would like to see Jeffries retain his Iaurels, because he has always been ready to defend them.
 Among those who have an expert knowledge of prize fighting and prize | fighters, Jeffries has the call Here are some opinions:
 Billy ,Madden--I can't see anything hut Jeffries. Corbeft can't hurt him. Jeff will get there with the wallop be- fore the twentieth round. Kid Mccoy -Coribett will get his and get it quick. Gus Ruhlin- -Jeffries in walk.
 Tom O'Rourke-Nothing to it but Jeffries. Tom sharkey Corbett is likely to beat Jeffries- Peter Maher--No chance for Cor belt.
 George Bothner--Te effries sure. Billy Elmer Nothing to 1t. Jeff. Terry McGovern--Corbett can't lick one side of Jeffrfes,
 sam Harris cGovern knows what he is talking about.
 Matty Matthe Corbett will win on points.
 Jack Munroe-Jeffries ought to beat Corbett
 Paddy Sullivan-Jeffries will win.
 Joe vendig-The champion will car " my money.
 Jack Herman--I can't fg.re out l how Corbett can win.
 John Dunn-Jeffries easily
 Martin Julian-Ten rounds; Jeff. Johnny Mack--Jeffries.
 Willie Fitzgerald-Corbett has a | chance.
 Willie Mack--Corbett hasn't look l in.
 Paddy Roche-Jeffries ought to win. Dad Gordon--Just few wallops and Corbett fn the feathers.

At Springfield.

Springfield, Aug 13.-Springteld and New Haven broke even in double header yesterday. Kane, the former Amherst college pitcher, twirled both games for New Haven. He was batted heavily in the first inning of the first game and lost it then. After that he settled down and pitched we'll. Tn the second game Springfield only got three hits off him. Merrick umpired and his decisions caused considerable friction between the two teams and brought forth jeers from the spectators. The score:
 First game: RH.E. Springfield ..400o0 0Oo 0 *-4 9 8 New Haven O 0 0 0 o 0 0 O---1 6 ? Batteries-Bowler and Connor; Kane and Jope; umpire, Merrick.

 Norwich, Aug 13.--McLaughIin was invincible yesterday and Norwich only saved a shut-out by Anklam's two-bag ger, an in6eld out and long fly to cen ter Plank was hit quite freely and was bit rattled by the umpiring which was something weird.

Wollschlager, a local amateur pitcher, was in the box for the visitors and pitched an excellent game, considering the support he received, as three of Meriden's hits were made after the side should have been retired The score:

SHIPPERS RACE;YANKEE WINS. Irondequoit Defeats 'Strathcona Again
 in Canada Cup Contests.


 Toronto, Aug. 13--Mr Hanan, the New York yachtsman. won another race yesterday from the Strathcona, the defender of the Canada cup. The race throughout was looked on here as one between the two shippers as much as between the boats. 1t was what local yachrsmen call a shippers race.
 The wind was from the northwest and blew fresh most of the time. The course was nine miles with the win.! and back. The race over the last half of course was very exciting There was much jockeying and blanketing on the tacks, and the Yankee skipper seemed to get the better of it very Of ten
 The beat back showed even more clearly than the run out that Mir Fla. nan was no novice. Commodore Jar. wis held on in the hope of forcing MT Hlanan down toward uScarboro Heights so that the Strathcona would get the wind straight off the heights and get clear run for the buoy, but MT Ha- nan declined to be forced. Apparent- ly he saw the purpose of his adyer- sary and did not go far enough dnvvn to give MT Jarvis the advantage thai he might have gained if the Ironde. quoit' had been less skilfully handled
 The starting turning and flnishina times of the yachts were as follows

 Some of Rochfords friends say that he will not be able to play second base | as well as he has first base. IT It comes to a show down Bob Drew can play second base. for he made very creditable showing in that position when playing with Waterbury two | years ago.
 The fans of Meriden either do not want baseball or they are not in love with the management of the team over there. A team that has played as good baseball as has Meriden deserves better patronage. Meriden will never be a good baseball city so far as at tendance counts.
 The Brooklyns and the North Ends are not yet out of the race for the pen nant and the result of the games next Saturday will mean whole lot to bott those teams. There are only couple of games between them and the lead CTS and the race from now to the end l of the season will be a corker.
 At the game in Norwich yesterday there were 37S regular paid admissions seven season tickets and 37 boys tick cts. Of the 37S regular paid admis, sions nearly 200 of them were paid by New London people. The result was that there was more roofing done for the visitors than there was for Cap tain Tighe's men.
 That game between the Wa sniT1gtor Hills and the St Josephs, which vii 1 be assigned for play next week, should attract the biggest crowd of the sea son. Managers Kelly and LeydoI will put their best teams against eacl other and it will be a battle royal fo sure. A win for the Washington Hills will mean the cinching of th' pennant and a win for the Saints vii tie the two teams.

 Holoke. Apg 13.-The Holyoke play Hrs found their baseball legs yesterday, and used them to stamp on Bridgeport. The score stood to 1 in favor of the Paper City aggregation at the close of the game. The visitors had a good many errors, but outside of that the game was an allstar performance, and was a record-breaker for time, the whole gome taking but 67 minutes. Clancy worked for Holyoke and allow cd but three hits, which he kept well scattered and only 30 of Uncle JAem's'' warriors faced him. Nichols, who pitched for the Orators, had no such luck. and was hit hard and free iv from first to last. RoSsman car ried of the honors with the stick, and a sacrifice and three hits, one of which was a twoAbagger, bounded from his bat. Bridgeport's heavy hitters were not in evidence at all, and Yale, Ladd and GusdropsH were the only ones that could make any kind Of showing While the pitching of Clancy was ex- cellent, and the work of Nichols was less effective, it was not wholly the. work of the pitchers that won and lost the game. CIancys fielders gave him perfect support, while the Bridgeport field was not up to its usual mark, and the heavy batting of Holyoke in con trast to the imperfect stick work of the Bridgeports had much to do with the way the game came out The score:

 Dan Patch Failed to Lower World $
 Record Other Good Races. 7
 New York, Aug 13--More than 1O,. GOO persons were at the Empire City track yesterday to sea the attempt of Dan Patch to lower the famous SGilr Pointers worlds pacing record of :59A.
 Under clear skies and on a track that was lightning fast the great pac- ing son of Joe Patchen made his effort to reduce the worlds pacing record The only unfavorable condition was a light breeze. It may have been sui ficiently strong to have handicapped the trial About 5 o'clock M E. Mo- Henry drove the grand horse on the track ready for the gigantic task set for him. Both horse and driver were met with a liberal outburst of ap- plause. S,
 After several scores down, McHenry nodded for the word, and the pacer was off on his journey. With the rum sner on the outside and about one length back, the quarter pole was reached in 30A seconds. Leaving this point the speed was increased. The half-nile pole was reached in 5S% seconds, the second quarter being made in 281a seconds. The fleet nov ing stallion reached the three-Uuart pole in 1:2S1a. This made the time of the middle half mile in 5SA seconds.
 Clinging close to the rail the pacer sped on to the seven-eighth pole. Here the clever reinsnan was seen to 20 to work on, his horse and from there home he helped his gallant flyer all that was possible, but he could not bring him under the wire in the time that would make him the champion. The final time was 2.00A.
 New York, Aug 13.-Ten thousand enthusiastic spectators saw Budd Do- ble drive his own horse Kinney Lou to victory in the Empire $5O00 stake at the grand circuit meeting yesterday, and the veteran driver was loudly ap4 plauded. The race was intensely ex- citing from start to finish, Kinney Lou's principal competitor being John Iaylor the winner of the $1O,O0O M. ana M. stake at Detroit. Tn two hair raising finishes. Kinney Lou won by a neck and a half-length Jay Nc Gregor sold for $1O0 against the field.
 The 2:l5 pace was also sensational race as Don Cozine sold at even money and was distanced in the first heat.
 After passing. the quarter pole he swerved into Mace and the latter into Bessie c. All three went down and the horses ran away. The drivers were unhurt and the horses were caught without serious injury Don Cozine was distanced and the other two were allowed to start again. AL crane won with a good deal to spare in straight heats. Before the start Don Cozine sold for S10o against the field
 A fast field met in the 2O5 pace with Dariel favorite at ? to I. The old speedway favorite won in straight heats in very close finishes with Carl Wilkes. For the 2:OS trot there were only three starters and Rythmic sold for even money against his two com petitors He won the first heat in a close finish with Fereno, but was de feated in the second in close call by Prince of Orange, who also won the deciding heat by length. Dan Patch paced a mile in 2:0oA, but failed to beat his record.
