NOT TO INQUEST CUBS
President Brush of Giants Says Game Will Not Be Brought
 Before Courts.
TOO GOOD SPORTS FOR THAT
New York Will Leave Chicago Undis- putcd Champion, Although For
 mer Still Claims It.

New York, Oct 9,-secretary Knowles of the New York National League Baseball club, to-day said he had heard nothing of any intended in- junction to be applied for by his club from the United States court in order to prevent the Chicago team from playing the Detroit worlds champion ship series. It had been widely ru- mored that such action would be taken on the ground that the New York team actually won the National league pennant and is, consequently. the only team which can compete Tor championship of the world.
 President Brush, of the New York National club late to-day emphatically confirmed the statement of Secretary Knowles this morning that the matter of the alleged tie New York Chicago game of September 22 will not be ta- ken to the federal courts In the form of a request for an injunction prohib- iting the Chicago club from playing the worlds championship series with Detroit beginning tomorrow.
 We are too good sports for that" said Mir. Brush. We shall not con- test the matter further. We believe the pennant is ours technically; there
 is no. doubt about this From a sports mans point of view it is inconeeiv- able how anyone can look at this mat ter otherwise. But, so far as we are concerned, the matter will remain as 1t is. We are proud of our record and have such emphatic and constant assurances from far and near as con- convince us that our position is gen. erally upheld. We fought to finish, and believe we stand on our record as good sportsmen."

VARSITY SCORED ON Brides Plunges Through Regu- lars for Two Touchdowns in
 Fifteen Minutes.
SCRUBS IN FINE FORM
Charlie Chadwick Coaches the Guards After the Practice Game Is
 Finished.

For the second time this week yes. terday the Yale scrub team played all around the varsity, scoring two touch- downs and two goals to none for the varsity. Yesterdays sweep was even more decisive than the former one. the ball hardly going into the scrub teams territory during the fifteen minutes.
 Starting off the backfield of the scrub team was made up of Brides, Wheaton and Burke but In the first few minutes of play Wheaton was thrown and slightly injured, someone carelessly stepping on his face. Then Daly took Wheaton's place. Before the change Wheaton was responsible for most of the gains, but after that Pop Corey, who was in at quarter on the scrub team, gave the ball to Brides most of the time and the old veteran again and again tore the strong varsity line for ten yard gains, scoring about three minutes after he started out and scoring a second time five minutes after he started out and scoring a second time five minutes later, On each occasion Freeman, who was one of the ends on the scrub team, kicked the goal, making the final score of the practice game 12 to 0.
 Hopkins played quarter with the varsity, but did not have chance to show much skill yesterday. Murphy from the backfield made a couple of good tackles, but the rest of the 'varsi- ty was not playing in It's regular form.
 Charlie Chadwick '95, who played guard on Brink Thorne's eleven, was coaching at the field yesterday for the first time In a number of years. He gave Cooney, Andrus and Riddle some fine points after the scrimmage. The other coaches were Biglow and Clar- ence F Alcott.

him the accomplishment of making

music must not be forgotten. In
the company were some good voices
and the solo and chorus work were
fine.
All in all the performance and &C
cessories were the best probably
that will be seen here for many a

great pleasure in the presence OF

she felt very kindly towards the

that all remained to the end of the

HEATRIcAL

one of the most acceptable theatrl-
cal performances, if not better than
any, ever seen in Union City. We
don't say this without due reHec-
ton, tor there have been some ex-
cellent productions here. Beresford
and the Clarkes, Creston and his
brother, have been here and they
all stand high in the profession
There have been others also OF the
same stamp and lesser lights whom
the citizens delight to remember as
having favored us with entertain
ment as good as the best. For IN
stance it has been said that Rip
Van Wrinkle was ono presented
here with an actor in the title role
equally as effective as Joe Jefferson.
The man who said this was one who
had seen things. He was a man OF
taste and good judgment, but in
this ease his opinion must not be
taken without a gain of salt. JEFF
ferson was celebrated in every civil
lied country which catered to the
atrical amusements. He had acted
in nearly all these countries, includ-
ing England, Australia, Canada,
| South America, and in other Euro
pean cities. In fact he was Welt
known all over the world and called
great. With the verdict of all thes&
people there could hardly be a Pr
vincial actor as good a Rip as
ferson. Some of the critics -

prejudice or lack of good sense, M
