CRYPT FOR PAUL JONES.
An Appropriation of $4,000 Urged
by Secretary Bonaparte.

The Secretary Of the Navy has addressed
The following letter 20 Senator Hale and
Representative Foss. chalrmen OF the com
mittees on naval affairs:
The crypt OF the chapel at the Naval
Academy. Annapolis, having been selected
as the place Of final deposit OF the body OF
John Paul Jones. l have the honor TO rec
ommend that suitable provision be made
for finishing this part OF the building in a
manner appropriate to such purpose.
Under existing contracts the crypt OF
the chapel will be left in the rough, with
exposed concrete and brick work. The de
partment has been in correspondence with
the architect Of the building, Mr.. Ernest
Flagg. and has received from him an esti-
mate and tentative plans for the finishing
of the crypt. \ copy Of the letter OF the
architect IS inciosed for the information OF
the committee. 1t Will be seen that MI
Flage's suggestions are based upon sub
stantiaI. though not the mere costly, style
of finish aud decoration.
"Inasmuch as the appropriations hereto
fore made for the erection OF buildings at
the Naval Academy are not sufficient to
cover the finishing of the crypt in the man
ner herein suggested, even If such acton
could appropriately be taken without the
special sanction OF Congress. the draft or
measure authorizing the work and pToVld-
ing an appropriation of $4,000 therefore,
is inclosed.
Learning that, In the preliminary steps
connected with this matter before 1t was
taken up by the government, Gen. Horace
Porter, Ambassador Of the United States
at Paris, had expended from his private
purse the sum OF $4,000 this department
was prepared to recommend that he be re-
lmbursed therefor; but he has most gener-
ously and periodically declined to accept
such reimbursement. suggesting that, In
stead. the sum originally proposed for the
finishing OF the crypt. 100000. and which
81 was feared would be inadequate to do
80 appropriately. be increased by the
amount OF any reimbursement to which he
might be supposed to be entitled. In view
OF this pgbliC-s pirited suggestion by Gen.
Porter the sum named in the estimate for
the finishing and decoration of the crypt is
made $4,000. This sum. Il is believed. is
barely sufficient 20 complete the work in
a simple. but suitable and substantial.

THAT POOL GAME.
Reason Why Cooke and Daly Did Not
 Finish.

Many have been wondering why " Art Cooke and Joe" Daily have not played the deciding game to see who will have second place in the pool tournament which was recently held. Daily and Cooke are tied for second place, but as yet neither have the cuff buttons which goes to the fellow coming in second.
 The reason why Cooke and Daily have not played is because of a run in which occurred between Cooke and Eli Pakulski. On the night that Cooke Wooster. On the night that Cooke played La Valley and was defeated he claimed that he did not want to play the game as he was not feeling well. After the contest he was some- what sore and stated that the game should have been postponed. He and Paluski finally got into an argument and it grew so hot that Cooke wanted the proprietor to go down stairs to settle their differences, Pakulski did not go. but Cooke finally went and has not shown up in the pool room since.
 Daily was offered the cuff buttons, but refused to take them. saying that he would not accept them until he won them. That's why Cooke and Daly have not come together.

THE DIAMOND
SWIFTLY SLUMBER
 THE PRODIGALS
Holyoke Enjoyed the Feast Tester. day - Games in Every
 League.

It was a cross between lone old cat" and run sheep run," that game of base ball yesterday between the Prodigals and the Holyokes. The latter team, however, did play base ball most of the time, that is when they were not starting kick over something or other. Some of the kicking was senseless and some of it humorous. The umpire lost his bearings several times, while Louis Lepine lost his temper and the crowd joked him in broken French. Stack. pole forgot to be gentleman and his tongue played havoc with the English language and the first prize for cuss words could have easily come his way. Tom Dowd sat on the bench and advised his men to fight the Prodigals in any way to win, and the men under him did it. Our out flelders were thinking of the gay times over in Meriden the day before and brought along touches on which to recline while they watched the balls sail merrily through the air. Twirler Bronkie was tired from that run of the night before and the dishes he served up to the Holyoke banqueters were more than appetiz- ing and thoroughly enjoyed and di- gested. In fact the game could be summed up in few words, "The Prodigals didn't play base ball, they played at it."
 We got just one run in that all leged game, and that was presented to us by the generosity of several of the Holyoke players, who played the Alphonse and Gaston act to perfec- tion. This happened in the fifth in- ming. when Bronkie got his base on Andrews and came home on a ball that dropped near the pitchers box, while several of the Holyokes played tag with each other to see who was it. We might have scored some more in the eighth had not Holyoke been cruel enough to pull off fast double play. Holyoke began her deadly work in the first inning when two men were out. Mclean got free pass and then Bronkie kindly gave Lepine, Crook and Lawrence three nice ones and they promptly handed out three safe bingoes, making two runs. In the seventh Bakers error, Bronkie's wild throw to first, to which the umpire contributed one base because of ignorance of the ground rules, and Lepine's long fly to right, netted one run. Another came in the eighth on free pass to Larkin. sacrifice by Baerwald and a single by Stackpole. and then the visitors stopped. The score:
