BALL CATCHING
FEAT SUCCESSFUL

WASHINGTON, D. c., August 81
Charles Street, catcher of the Washing
ton baseball team, today won bet OF
$500 made with John Biddle of this
city by performing the unprecedented,
though oft-attempted, feat of catching
a regulation baseball dropped from the
top of the Washington monument. The
ball was dropped from height of $50
feet above the pavement, where Street
caught it on the thirteenth attempt, the
failures being due to a rather brisk
wind which DETECTED the ball in its
course. Street was considerably Jared
by the impact of the sphere but never
theless caught in the American league
game this afternoon.
Paul Hines, Buck Ewing, Charley
Snyder and Malachi Kittredge are a
few of the old timers who have tried
this feat without success. The ball, it
is calculated, was travelling at the rate
of 135 feet per second when it reached
the catcher's hands. Street wore a
regulation catcher s mitt.

HEAVYWEIGHTS
SATURDAY NIGHT
Higgins and Smith Have Agreed
to Box for Ryan-ScuIly
Athletic Club.

| All fixed for Saturday night. Gun
boat Smith of the Pennsylvania and
Spike Higgins of the California will
have ten round boxing argument and
they will be ushered into the ring by
two good preliminaries
The affair will take place at the new
auditorium of the Independence Ath-
letic Club on the Midway under the
auspices of Jack Scully and Paddy
Ryan. Paddy will referee and this is
enough to assure that the boys will get
square deal.
The preliminaries have not been ar
ranged as yet but Mr.. Seully states
that he has a couple of good ones in
view and will guarantee two short go
hummers.
Higgins has the name Of being the
heavyweight champion of the feet and
Smith has a name that is Just about
as good, so that we may expect to see
something doing They are both heavy
weights and this class of bout is al
ways more attractive to the fans than
seeing whole show of the light lads.
1t is funny thing, but true neverthe-
less, that the heavies always draw more
attention than the light ones, violent
efforts of press agents and managers
Notwithstanding.
Few details are learned as yet about
the two big boxers but the general
sentiment amongst their comrades is
that they are good ones and will put
up go that will keep everybody busy
watching from the start to the decision.
The clubs quarters are rapidly get
ting into fine shape. Contractor Harri-
son has big gang of workmen there
and the ring is already completed. Pad
it will certainly be the best of it's kind
as is clearly shown by the ring in the
fishmarket which experts have declared
have ever seen.
The seats will be arranged in tiers
so that everybody will have an unin-
terrupted view of the boxers and the
whole is covered by roof which will
protect from possible rain while adj
hitting the air at the sides. The audi
forum will be, in fact, rooted in and
open building.
arrangements TOT MONDAY are not 80
certain. Sailor Roberts may wrestle
with a good one named Shinle from the
fleet and it is possible that DIR. Roller
will appear. The big man from Seattle
has offered to throw Roberts, Shinle,
and Mitsuki on the same mat within
one hour of actual wrestling. The pub
lie is very anxious to have the Doctor
appear and it is hoped that some such
arrangement can be made, if not now
at any rate on the return of the feet.
Paddy Ryan and Jack Scully took
voyage of discovery this morning and
visited the different athletic officers
and made definite arrangements with
Higgins and Smith. They also saw a
number of other boxers and have some
good names on their pads which will be
published as soon as they have signed
the boys up.

LEAGUE MEETS
FOR BUSINESS

There was a meeting of the League
yesterday afternoon and Charles Falk
was appointed a committee of one to
arrange about games between local
teams and teams from the fleet. Nat
urally enough no definite schedule was
arranged as Mr.. Falk must first see
the managers of the visiting teams.
The interrupted schedule or rather
second series of the League is about to
commence and Saturdays games will
probably be Diamond Heads VS.. Puma
hous and Kamehamehas VS.. st. Louis.
On Sunday there will be game with
the sailors if it can be arranged, pos
sibly the Saints against boys from the
California.
On Monday the winners of the game
on Saturday at Aala Park will possibly
play the California and the great Penn
sylvanias will meet the Punahous.
There arose a question as to gate
money. The feet managers seemed to
think that the sailors should be ad-
mitted free while the League states
that it never has done that. There is
a rule that the Naval games funds can
not accept percentages of gate receipts
and, fol. this reason, the sailors think
that they should take this out by be-
ing admitted free.
No actual agreement has been arriv-
ed at as yet but there is no chance of
any trouble as both sides are willing
to meet the other half way and an
amicable agreement is assured. The
suggestion has been made to the Adj
vertiser that the matter be settled by
each team being supplied with liberal
number of twenty-fve-cent admission
tickets. This seems a satisfactory solu-
ton and may be acted on today at an
other meeting which the League will
hold

LIEUT.. A. N. OTHER
FINDS A MANICURE

Lieutenant A. N Other of the cruiser
Fairyland was walking up Fort street
with brother officer. Now this Lieu
tenant Other is more or less of dandy

had suffered from the effects of salt
water so he decided to look for mani
cure.
"Where,' said he to his companion,
"can [ find manicure here?n
"Why, guess you II find one at the
Young Hotel,' was the answer.
So they laid a course for the Young
Hotel
And they asked the clerk if he could
tell,
With manner quiet and face demure,
Where they could And a manicure.
The clerk misunderstood them. He
thought that Lieutenant Other had ask
for the manager. tsPlease leave your
card said he, "and I viii send it up.
A trifie surprised at having to send his
card to manicure the gallant officer
dug up and the pasteboard went to the
office of one Hertsche.
So Mr.. Hertsche received that card
To remember the name he thought
right hard
But A. n. Other he could not place
So he came downstairs TO see his face.
Manager Hertsche lay alongside,
doused his mud hook and signalled for
recognition, but there was nothing do
ing. "Say," said the off Ger man.

Manager Hertsche stared an inquired
as to what nails he was referring.
DO you think speak of my toe nails,
ehs
Do you think it IS Trilby want to play 7
Of the shape of my nails I've heard
complaint
But Manager Hertsche fell in faint.
Alter twelve bell boys and the entire
officer staff had assisted in restoring
him to consciousness, the genial man
ager looked round for explanations.
Those explanations soon were made
But not right there, for | I'm afraid
They went below where bottles elinl1
And Hertsche bought-What do You

The light rainfall on the dirty pavement had left a slippery coating and just after crossing Or ange street Tom slid and fell in a heap Though the driver pulled up snarp. the speed of the heavy truck was so great that Tom was dragged on his side to point almost in front of police headquarters Kicking will- ly all the time the danger of injury to the other horses was great, but the driver was off his seat as soon as a stop was made and at the horses heads.
 The fire was in the grocery store of Charles Petreneli at 130 Lafayette street Mice in q case of matches started the blaze, filling the tenement with smoke and driving the tenants out half clothed. It was put out with chemicals
