SOMETHING ABOUT 1TD0EL.
The Breeder of the Famous Trotter Says a
Tew Words.
W. A. McNulty, ot Sedalia, Mo., is In the
city. He was tbe first owner of the now
famous trotting horse McDoel. 2:15f. Mr. Mc
2sulty bred and broie the horse aud drove him
In his first race.
During a conversation yesterday Mr. Mc
JCrdty said: "McDoel was ahla to go a 202 gait
the fourth time he was hitched to a sulky. The
first two races he was in he was shut outtn
very slow company. I knew he was a trotter
and never Must Heart. 1 entered him for a
IL50U purse and for a 2,000 parse, and prepaid
uy entrance money, showing that I had faith
in my horse. For the former purse he got
second money, and he won the second, coing a
heat in 2S. He could have gone much bet.
ter if needed. Isold hnn for a big price. I
think he is the best trotter in the country to
day. I feel certain that he will heat any other
horse he meets the best three in five heats. He
Is thoroughly game, and next season will see
him very much better than 2:12. He is better
than that now."
Herdic raid for His Tan.
Wiliiamspokt. Dec 10. Frank L. Herdic,
the famous pool seller, had a little experience
with a police court here to-day, as a result of
violation of an ordinance prohibiting last driv
ing on the streets. Mr. Herdic passed up
Fourth street behind a spanking trotter at
tached to a cutter, and met Henry Veil, another
well-known citizen and a driver of fast horses.
Tbe two gentlemen gave the horses their heads,
and were soon speeding like the wind in a
genuine race, while the voice of Herdic.
lamiliar on the race courses throughout the
country, rang out as he ursred his horses on. A
policeman spied tbe exciting scene and
promptly swore mt warrants, alleging a viola
tion of the ordinance. Tbey appeared before
an Alderman this afternoon and jointly con
tributed something over 513 for the benefit of
rie city treasury. Mr. Herdic 6tated that the
race was worth his share of the J13, but that he
&d not realize be was violating a law.
Kentucky's Big Stake.
rSPECtAl. TELIOIAJI TO TBK DISPATCItt
I-EXINGTOK. Ky.. Dec 10. Brilliant beyond
exception has been tbe outcome of the stallion
representative stake, for which the Kentucky
trotting horse breeders guaranteed S10.000,
16,000 of which will go to the winner. Instead
ot 50 or 60 entries, as many horsemen tboucht.
Secretary Tipton announces to-night, that OS
stallions haTe been nominated at JIUO each. The
excess over tbe guaranteed amount goes to the
nominator of the stallion, and to judge by the
snperb array of stallions entered ibis excess
will amount to 55.000 at least. Following is the
list of stallions, their breeding and owners.
Among the entries is Bt. llel, owned by Miller
& Sibley, Franklin.

THE PB0P0SED CBICKET 1EAQTJE.
A New Tork Authority Has a Few Words to
Say About It.
A movement has been started in Philadel
phia for the organization of a National League
of Cricketers, embracing the cities of Phila
delphia, New York, Boston. Baltimore, Pitts
burg and Chicago. The idea originated with a
member of the Germantown Cricket Club, and
from the way he has started in to work tho pro
ject up, a most pronounced success is assured.
There is no doubt that a championship series
ot matches between the cities named would do
much to promote Interest In the game. At tbe
annual dinner of the Massachusetts Central
Cricket Association, held in Boston last week,
a letter from Thomas Wharton, Inviting criti
cism of tbo project, was read, and the idea was
most enthusiastically received. It this city
several prominent cricketers have been ap
proached on the subject, and the general opin
ion is favorable to the scheme.
There has been one point raised, however,
which would alfect the movement if along
schedule were arranged. It it hardly probable
that the Chicago Lcagne, for Instance, would
come East to play several games in the cities
here or that the New York League could afford
the time to vMt 1'ittsburg and Chicago, besides
taking in Boston and Baltimore. Cricketers are
ot the same amateur denomination, and even,
as a general rule, are content to pay their
own traveling expenses. In thi case cricket
would become so costly an amusement that
only those of unlimited means could indulge In
the National League games.
But a proposition has come up that the games
should be played In similar manner to the En
glish enp ties, which would proclaim tbe cham
pion city without entitling the "rnnncrs-np" to
claim second place. Thus, suppose the League
consisted of the six cities named above, Phil
adelphia and Baltimore could play one came.
New York and Boston another, and Pittsburg
and Chicago the third.
The defeated clubs wonld then stay out, and
the result would depend on the games between
the other cities. In this case, two clubs would
play three) games, one club two game, and
three clubs only one game. This would curiall
the expenses nf the movement considerably,
and the interest would be just as great.
It was thought in Philadelphia that tbe new
league would do away with tbe interest in tho
Halifax Cnp contests, but with the number of
matches limited, as above, other games would
not suffer. The same applies to tbe Metro
politan District Cricket League, the Chicago
Cricket Association, and similar bodies, which
have an interesting local schedule.
It is probable that a meeting will be called at
an early date to take action in the matter, and
it is probable a series of games will then bo ar
ranced for the championship of the United
States. iV. 1'. Sun.
S0HEWKAT MUDDLED AGAIN.
Baseball Magnates In tho East Ilave Some
Very Conflicting Notions.
rsrrctAi. telkurau to thi msrATCH.1
New York, Dec 10. There was no con
ference of the baseball magnates here to.day
on account of the non-arrival of A. W. Thur
man. Matters are exceedingly complicated, as
the Boston N.L. club emphatically object tohav
ing an American Association club in that city.
Brooklyn affairs are still unsettled, and it is
not known whether or not A. G. Spalding will
allow an Association club In Chicatro. Tbe
Brooklyn P. L. club wane an Association f ran
chisc and President Byrne won't hear of it.
Manager B.irme, of Baltimore, insists that
the N. L. carries ont its bargain of allowing an
Association team in Boston, and there is a pros
pect of a lively time. Mr. Spalding says that
all will come right in the end. It is understood
that the Boston triumvirs will not be allowed
to have all their own way. The Conference
Committee will meet to-day.
LOCAL BASEBALL AFFAIRS.
Director O'Neill States That He Will Buy
Nlmlckand Converse Ont.
Local baseball affairs still remain in an un
settled state. Last evening Director J. P.
O'Neill tated that he will buy the Interests of
Messrs. Nimlck and Converse out of the Na
tional League clnb on Monday next As stated
in yesterday's DisPATcn this will cost 523,00a
It is nnderstood that if this is not done there
will be some very troublesome complications.
The P. L. magnates and Mr. O'Neill had sev
eral private confabs yesterday, and the last
named pointed out that a limited stock com
pany could be formed at once, so that efforts
could immediately be made to sign players.
This feature of the business was under discus
sion, and some people think it may be adopted.
The time for the consummation of the deal
between Mr. O'Neill and Messrs. Nimick and
Converse to be definitely settled was originally
fixed for Monday next. The time, however
was yesterday extended seven davs, so that De
cember 22 is no w the date.

ISrKCTAI. TELZORAM TO TOT DISPATCH.I
PniLADELrniA. Dec la Before a largo

at the Continental Hotel Jo-Cay to continue the
billiard tournament. Another fine exhibition
resulted, In which McLaughlin won the honors
easily. Ho played magnificently from the start
to finish, making an average of 8 and in one
break gathering 57. Levy also showed an im
provement in form, but he was no match forthe
champion, being beaten by tho score of 400 to
134.
The hall was filled again in the evening to
witness the game between liurris and Campbell,
the latter beinc conceded S3 pointsin a game of
SIX). For awhile Campbell played steadily and
rolled up the points rapidly, but Burrls was not
to be outdone, and by good hard work and
masterly playlnc he gained the lead. After
this Campbell fell off, while Burns continued
his fine playing and won by the score of 300 to
ISO.

yesterday. In company with a party or students,
while skating on one or the ponds near the town,

was finally rescued by his comrades, but not
without much difficulty, and not until several of
them In their efforts to rescue him had been

preferred to have Princeton win the big cham

under ordinary circumstances Harvard would
like to have the mantle or championship fall on

feaud the blue at Springfield, and the victory of
the latter over the orange and black In Urooklvn
means that I larvanl defeated the champion of the

tbe claim would now be cet up that Harvard dc

A Broken Down Chicago Business Man
Demands Support From Them.
Chicago, Dec. 10. An old man, his
frame bent from age, tottered ud to the rail
ing in front of the County, Court yesterday
a'tternoon, and gazed sorrowfully at a well
built man ot 35 whom Bailiff Dooley had
brought in on an attachment. The old man
wore a tattered overcoat and his whole ap
pearance indicated that he was a man who
had passed through a hard struggle with
poverty. But beneath the rags and tatters
was a man who has been famous in Chicago
in his day and one of its ioremost citizens
and business men. He is T. Menard, for
merly one of the master builders of Chicago.
He was wealthy at one time, bnt he lost all
his money and property, and is now seeking
to compel his sons to support him. He lives
in poor lodgings at No. S99 West Twelfth
street.
Mr. Menard some time ago secured an
order of court compelling his sons, George
and T. Menard, to pay S3 and S3 a week
respectively in support of their old father.
They paid the money until some weeks ago
when they dropped behind, at-d the old man
weut to County Attorney Atwood and took
out attachments against his two sons. Only
one, George, could be found, and he was
proved to be $56 in arrears. He pleaded
with tbe Court that he was only getting $20
a week as a driver for a delivery wagon aud
his wife was sick and be couldn't pay. The
Court told him he must give his father some
money by Wednesday morning. An officer
was also sent out to hunt up the other
brother.

LOSJ IN THE WOODS.
A Yonng Man Who Goes Hauling in
the Wilds of Clearfield County.
HIS FEIENDS CANNOT FIND HIM.
A Westmoreland County Case of Much
Interest to Miners.
ONE BOSS IS CHAEGB OP TWO MIKES
rSrSCIAL TELEGRAM TO III DISPATCIM
Clearfield, Dec. 10. One- week ago
yesterday yonng Newton Graham, with two
companions, went out into the mountains
north of this place, on a hunting expedition.
The same day, while in the thickest of the
wilds, the two friends missed Graham. They
immediately begun to call, bnt received no
answer. Alarmed at this silence on the part
of their companion, who had apparently
only strayed off a short distance, they began
firing guns, but in vain.
It was impossible to follow the tracks left
by Graham lor more than a few yards
through the forest, so the two unwillingly
turned their backs to the scene and started
home, hoping that Graham had preceded
them. Not finding him there no real alarm
was felt until yesterday, as it was thought
he had-perhnps gone on a visit to -friends in
a nearby town. Early this morning 150
men, armed and each with a compass,
turned to the north and entered the great
wilds that stretch for miles and miles in
that direction, Many of them are Graham's
close friends, aud say they will certainly
find either Graham alive or his dead body.
The latter is the most likely, as would be
easily seen by anyone who has ever entered
these great woods without guide or compass,
as they arc perfectly trackless, never being
crossed by either a footpath or road.
The youug man had his gun with him,
but even ii he did succeed in bringing down
some wild game it is feared he would be
utterly unable to withstand the intense cold
that has been creeping over the mountains
every nizbt after uundown.
BTJBMITTED TO ABBITBAT10N.
Tbe Privilege of Having One Pllne Boss in
Charge of Two Mines.
rSPECIAI. TELEOKAU TO TUB DISPATCH.!
Scottdale, Dec. 10. An important mining
case, which involves tho McClure Coke Com
pany and Mining Inspector Jenkins, is at pres
ent pending in tho Westmoreland county
courts, and has been submitted to a board of
arbitration, composed of Peter Wise, H. Huff
and It. Wolf, tlueo experienced miners.
This case has excited great interest in tbe
coke regions and other mining districts. It
bears on the privilege of a company to have
one mine boss in cbargo of two mines, with the
same number ot openincs, and is regarded as a
test case Tbe suit relates mainly to the Besse
mer and Rising Sun mines of the McClure Com
pany. Inspector Jenkins, in the bill of com
plaint, says that tbe two mines are separate
and distinct, and in accordance with tbe min
ing laws there should bo two bosses instead of
one, as at present.
Tbe defendants aver that tbe two mines are

rSPECIAL TELEOr.AM TO THE DISPATCH.!
AKKON,' Dec." 10. Mrs. Elizabeth Hanchett,
tbe oldest resident of Summit county, died
yesterday at the age of 99 years, 6 months and
14 days. She hw lived in this county 65 years,
and in tbe city 40 years. She was born in Litch

the samo year, 1832, tbey came to Ohio, locating
in Middlebury, now a part of Akron. Dr.
Hanchett, prominent in tbU part of tho State
over 60 vears aco, died in 1813.
Mrs. fianchett's conversation, even up to her
last days, was remarkable for its wit and
shrewdness and she always said she was wound
up for 100 yoars. She remembered George
Washington, as tbe best man of his day, and
distinctly recalled memories of her childhood
days. A remarkable thing about her memory
was that it was as sound in relation to things of
the present, as it was of the distant past. About
five years aco she suffered a slight stroke of
paralysis, bnt became better, aud up to Tues
day night entertained all friends who called to
see her. She had no immediate relatives in

A PENSION SWINDLE.
Two People Who Beat the Government Out
of Over Two Thousand Dollars.
Itrr.CIAL TELEORAK TO THE DISFATCn.t
Bellaire. O., Dec 1U. Captain Little, a
policeman of this place, who also acted as pen
sion agent, assisted Caroline Switzer, of Bel

alleged he secured 100 for his share of the
transaction. The.woman was convicted Satur
day last, and yesterday the Cautain was also
convicted and sent to jail at Columbus to await
sentence.
From the evidence at the trial it appears that
others were mixed up in the affair, and other
arrests ai e likely to follow this attempt to de
fraud tbe Government. The Government will
not lose a cent, however, as the bank that
cashed the forged papers will lose all.

A New Remedy Under Investigation by
German Physicians.
1ST DCNLAF'S CABLE COUFANT.I
Berlin, Dec. 10. The new remedy for
diphtheria, which was discovered by a
peasant named Bieger, whose son is to be
allowed to experiment with it under the
supervision of Prof. Koch, is just stated on
the best authority to be a fluid which is
painted on the ulvers and causes them to
burst open.
It also produces vomiting and violent
diarrhea, and the patient at the same time
becomes exceedingly thirsty, bat on no ac
count is he allowed to drink any fluid for an
hour after his throat has been painted.
To cure costiveness the medicine must be
more than a purgative; it must contain tonic,
alterative and cathartio properties.
Tutt's Pills
possess these qualities, and speedily restore
to the bowels their natural peristaltic motion,
so essential to regularity. TTSSU
