 West Palm Beach, Fla, April B. Joseph Jefferson, the eminent actor, died at his home, .'The Reefs" at Palm Beach. at 6:15 o'clock this evening. The end came after a day of unconscious ness and after heroic struggle of days, which had exhausted his vitality. At his deathbed were his wife, his sons, Charles B. and Frank Jefferson, his nurse, Miss Mabel Bingham, pr. R. B. Potter and his faithful old servant Carl Kettler
 < The end was not a surprise to his family. Ever since his last sinking spell which came after a rally on Thursday morning, and which was fol- lowed by an apparent improvement until Friday, the family has been wait ing for the end Mr. Jefferson's condi- tion. Saturday night grew steadily worse, and the family, who had retired, were summoned from their beds, and Dr. Potter called.
 The patients condition continued to grow worse all through to-day, and the brief bulletins from the bedside con tained no word of encouragement.
 The illness of MT. Jefferson which ended in his death was contracted, fl is believed, while on a recent visit to his son, Charles B. Jefferson, at Holz Sound. few miles above Palm Beach, where he went to meet his friend, for mer President Cleveland. It is believ- ed that from slight indiscretion in his eating there he suffered an attack of indigestion. Since his return to his home this condition grew steadily worse with slight rallies until the end,
 The body of MT, Jefferson will be talk en to Buzzards Bay on special train leaving here tomorrow evening, ac- companied by all the members of his family who are here. It vii reach New York Wednesday morning, and the fam fly hope to reach Buzzards Bay the evening ot that day.

Al Hsjeysbls Entsrtalnmsnt.

Mrs. Arthur Roy entertained
q Jolly crowd of young folks Fri
day. night, December Is. Each
guest was presented on entering
the parlor, with a card on which
was written part of q quotation,
and the young lady holding the
card upon which the rest of the
quotation was written was the
young mans partner during the
descriptive contest, which was
extremely amusing. After five
minutes of conversation the
young men were askedto walk in
tothes sitting room and write q des-
cription of their partners, while
the young ladies remained in the
parlor and wrote a description
of their partners. When the time
of writing was up all collected in
the parlor and each partner ex-
changed cards, and read aloud
the descriptions, which brought
forth many peals of laughter.
Several contests took place
the evening, but the one
creating the most interest was
1.-THE Island Contest, in which
Mr.. Leon Schmulen won the
gentleman's prize, a fountain
pen; while the lady's prize, a
pretty cake plate, was captured
by Miss Rhena Boudreaux.
Mrs. Roy then invited the young
people into the dining-room
which was beautifully decorated
with cut flowers, and all enjoyed
the dainty refreshments pre-
pared.
After a late hour the young
folks babe their hostess adler
speaking many words of deligh'
at being able to be in attendance
Those present were: Misse'

Baseball

RRRTRRRhHH fHHH4HH
Mack, who pitched here for POUCH
keepsies, is doing good work for Jer-
sey City in the Eastern League.
Munoz, formerly with the All Gu
bans, has joined the Cuban x Giants.
Foxen, the left-hander who pitched
for Hoboken against the locals, spitches
for the. Manhattans on Sundays.
The wisdom of securing Big Bill
Tierney to play first for the locals was
seen In Sundays game when, in addi-
tion to PLAYING the bag in admirable
style, he smashed out a double that
tied the core. Bill is also the life of
the game on the coaching lines and is
a big favorite with the fans.
Lindemann is getting his bumps
right straight along pitching for
Ridgewood. He hasn't won a game
yet for Hussey. Three.games a week
seem to be too much for Ernest.
Garcia, the new catcher of the All
Cubans, is a great hitter. Three times
he plugged the sphere safely on Sun
day and it was his last rap that broke
up the game. Garcia is of coal black
color and it sounds funny to hear him
spout Spanish.
Harry Mccormick had a lot of work
to do in Sundays game and 1t Ia need
less to say he acquitted himself credit
ably. The manner in which he fields
balls knocked to his garden affords
great delight to the fans. He is after
the ball the second it leaves the bat
and the result is that long hits that
usually net extra bases are reduced to
singles or two baggers. Mccormick
is also hitting the ball hard and his
single and steal of second in the ninth
inning Sunday came just in the nick
of time.
The quality of baseball that Is to be
seen at Amusement Park has aroused
Il great IDEAL of enthusiasm among
the fans. They realize that the very
best attractions are being booked and
there is always a pretty sure chance
of seeing a lively game at the park as
the locals are strong enough to con-
tend with the hest teams travelling.
The management has fulfilled its
promise to provide a team of regular
players, for with n exception the
team that played last Sunday is iden-
tical with that which opened the sea-
son onA pri) 9 at New York.
