FEEDING THE WILD ANIMALS
Squirrels and Rabbits Most Quickly Become Winter Pets-Cotton-
 Tall Comes at Night.

Or the animals that We can coax about our houses. the gray squirrels become most friendly. Put nuts in convenient places and they will make frequent trips for supplies. but only on comparatively mild days 1ill they remain long outside their comfortable winter quarters. where they usually have plenty of food stored. Tn Central park. New York. the gray squirrels have become so accus- toned to being fed that they have. to great extent. given up storing food. and rely chiefly on what they can pick up each day. Red squirrels can be coaIed by means of food. but they are very questionable fellows in fact the general opinion is decidedly against them, owing 10 their pariiality for eggs and young birds. Chipmunks hibernate in their underground homes. 90 We cannot count on them for winter visitors The cotton tail will eondescend to accept dainties in the form of green vegetables ttnough one seIGCm has such luNuries in the sin- terl. but. as he comes almost entirely at night. he is net very interesting guest

TEAM NOT SOLD.

Cornelius J. Danaher said yester- day that negotiations were still on with several men who wish to buy the New Haven team. J. II. Bronson of New Haven, who has umpired games and who has had some good horses at Charter Oak park, and President Sur gis Whitlock of the Connecticut league nave made offers, but Mir Danaliar does not think that they bid high enough. Mir Whitlock would put a good team in New Haven if he secured the franchise. The New Haven pa pers seem to think that Whitlock wants the franchise so that he could use the club as a farm for the Bridge port team. It is known that Whitiock and O'Rourke have very close rela- tions. Bronson says he would put Ca rey. the old Buffalo player. on first If Ne secured the team.

HANDBALL. THE PUGILISTS.
THE IRISH CHAMPION
 AGAINST SPANISH LEADER

An international handball match was begun ut Tarrant's court. Seventeenth ana Grove streets. Jersey City. yester> day. and the contestants were Oliver Drtw Of Cork, Ireland. and Francisco Osdozgoiti the champion pelota player of Spain and France. The original conditions stipulated that the match should consist of seven games of twen- ts-one aces. and the player securing the first four should be declared the winner: but on account of the poor, light caused by the Jersey fog. only four games were played, and each layer won two. so that tue score was even up. The three remaining games will be played on January l9. begln- nilg at 1 30 o'clock.
 Straight handball rules prevailed throughout, but the Spaniard, was al lowed to catch the ball and fling 1t against the wall. and his lodging tac- ties were much the same as if he hit it with his hand. He had to meet IL .n the first hop. which he did every timc. And his method of getting hold of it and shooting it against the wall was peculiar. When it rebounded to Itilll OH tut Ndu ppuieNH upoh' ~" like d cat at q mouse. made cup out Of his hand by closing the thumb and index finger and instantly brought the arm across his breast and with q back hand swish sent the little sphere against the wall as if dischafgins 1t from quick firing gun.
 Sometimes Drew's 'scroeging ser vice and powerful rallies puzzled Or | doZgoiti.
 1 Drew has gained considerable weight 1 and strength. yet he has lost none or the feline alertness which so puzzled Egan in the international match of l two years ago. The Irish champion Is ] iast as deliberate and. if anything, more powerful in his service. There was q big crowd present, and betting was brisk, with Drew the favorite.
 Drew won the toss and took the hrst hand. which brought him two aces, and this he followed up with three. while two goose eggs were recorded TOT the Spaniard. In the next hands Drew and the Spanard made aces apiece, and it seemed as if the Call ! flew around too fast for the Castlllall champion. and he ground his teeth in his efforts to grasp it. Drew made one in the next hand and followed it ur
 with 3. 4. ] and ?. running out the game to a total of aces for Ordozso iii and to the delight of the Hibernian element present. In the second match however. Ordozgoiti seemed to get the
 lay of the land a~little better. ana
 after five hands the score was 10 to ! il,.In
 paying we'll. and at the expiration ol the tenth hand the game was 20 al
 and Drew sailed in and made the Win
 ming ace.
 OrdOzgoiti secured the next two
 cannes. to the astonshment of tho
 crowd. The score of the third game ssas,2 to II in his favor. In rhc'alftl hand he made a fine run of 10 aces
