THE LATTER HAD A WALKOVER Champion Jim Said Ground Was la No Condition and That lie Was Not Accustomed to Playing In the Kind of Alley laed. James J. Corbett, the champion pu gilist of the world, accompanied by ills wife and brother, Joseph Corbett, ar rived In the city yesterday afternoon. James and Joseph came here to play three twenty-one-polnt names of hand ball with John R leu by nnd Thomns Dove at the Driving park. The Cor betts were no match for the local play ers, and lost oil three games. The ground was soft from the rain, and the champion refused to exert him self. Immodlatelyon the arrival of theCor betts In the city tlu-y proceeded to the St. Omrles hotel, where Air. and Mrs. Corbett were assigned to room 63. Mrs. CVrbett, to whom the champion was married nt Asbury l'urk after the ball game In which he participated In this city three weeks nt;o. Is u tall, hand some blonde, who dresses with good taste, nnd Is evidently very much in love with Corbett. She remained In her room during the greater part of the time she was In the city, save when she went to the Driving l'urk to witness the hand bull contest. At 1.40 this morning Mr. and Mrs. Corbett and brother, Joe, left for Washington, where the latter will pitch today for tho Washington Na tional league team. CorhcttH Hnslly Itofeatcd. James J. Corbett has appeared In Serunton at various time as a pugilist and actor since he became the world's champion. About two weeks ago- he donned the uniform of the Bcruntoii club, and helped them to win a game from HntTulo. He has always been successful In those ventures here fin ancially and otherwise, but yesterday ho assumed a new role, that of a hand ball player, and, together with his brother Joe, engaged in a match gumo of that very active Fiort at the Driv ing park grounds with John Hlckaby and Thomas Dove, local players. Throe frames of twenty-one points each constituted the contests. They were easily won by the local players, who could have made more points If It iv..re necessary, nnd prevented the Corbetts from scoring as often as they did. Twenty-live hundred persons saw the athletes shift about on the muddy court until all three games were finished, when the pluyors- legs and hands were thoroughly bespat tered with mud, and the audience drenched with rain. Location or tho Alley. The wall of the alley was erected In front of the grandstand ho as to afford the people seated there a good view, but the majority of the spectators crowded about the court and were more Interested In sizing up the cham pion's physical developments than in the sclentllic points of the game. Corbett Bays that their opponents are good players, and that he was at a disadvantage on account of the style of alley played on. He is accustomed to an alley with side walls and besides claims that he has always played on a hard ground which makes the ball bound and re bound readily. A turf ground, like the one at the Driving park, does not pos sess that advantage. Then again the rain softened the ground to such an extent that It was impossible to play good hand ball. The champion did not exert himself very much on this account, but his brother put forth his beHt efforts to win and made some brilliant plays. KicKaDy lias consented to r ay Cor bett on his own alley at Asbury park soon. The scores were 21-0, 21-1, 21-19. Will Go Into Training. Corbett was seen at the St. Charles last evening by a Tribune reporter. and was In a very pleasant frame of mind, notwithstanding his defeat. After explaining the causes which pre vented him from making . a better showing, he declared that he had every confidence his fight with Fitzsimmons would be allowed to take place in Texas. "I will go Into training at once, and have every confidence that I will be able to win the fight. Tonight I start for Washington, where I will watch my brother Joe pitch for the Washing ton club. Tomorrow and Saturday nights 1 play In Baltimore, and on Sunday I am billed to take part In a base ball game at Newark, N. J. "After that I will go to Asbury Park, and begin training lor my match with FitzslmmonB. I will remain thc-re three weeks, and then proceed to San Antonio, Texas, where I will do the remainder of the training." WITHIN THIRTY DAYS. Stock of Martin Dclaney Mnst Be Dis posed of In That Period. On Saturday will begin the greatest clothing sale in the 'history of the city. It will not be one of the regulation closing out sales known to the trade, but a real, bona tide article. Martin &. Delany's Immense stock of clothing was sold under the sheriff's hammer to satisfy the claims of execu tion creditors. Cash must be realized on these goods at once, and therefore a real closing out sale will be Inaugurat ed and prices marked down to from 26 to 60 per cent, below cost. The general line- of clothing carried by Martin & Delany was not excelled in the city. It contains everything In the line of men's, boy's and children's suits, overcoats, etc. 'There are no Bhoddy goods In the stock. It Is all first-class and must be sold within thir ty days. Visit the store early for the best bar gains. There will be a big rush, and you wan t to be there and have the large and varied stock to choose from. The store is In the Coal Exchange, on Wyoming avenue. WAR IN THE KITCHEN. Tempest In a Ton pot In a Prospeet . Avenue Tenement. Soon before supper time Saturday evening. last Thomas Crampton, of Prospect avenue, had a lively tussle with John Munley, who lives In the same house; In fact, owns It, Crampton being a tenant, occupying the upstairs. iMunley was on his way to the cooking kljtchen with a teapot to brew a pot of English 'Ureakfast for himself,, when Crampton came across the lot. Munley called his tenant to account for breaking a post and he advised Crampton not to repeat the offense. Crampton struck the teapot and sent It over In a neighbor's yard; Muniey resented by retaliating on Crampton's jaw, and their wives came out and joined In the fray. Alderman 'Donovan Issued warrants sworn out by both parties, but at the hearing the, suits were quashed , by Crampton's agreeing to find another house. Munley did not want to have him around any longer, COHEN TOOK EVERYTHING. There Was Nothing Slow About This Old Forge Oroesr. Alderman Donovan yesterday bound 8. Cohen, of Old Forge, to appear at court and answer the charge of larceny by bailee. Cohen was arrested on a warrant sworn out by Sommera Bros., grocers, of. Spring Brook. . The prosecutor and the defendant had been trading with the same whole sale firm in New Tork, and- lately pur chased a large stock of goods. The 'New York house shipped the goods for both in the same car and consigned it to Cohen. When Sommers Bros.' team came to the switch he found the car empty, Cohen having taken all. When Sum mers Bros, went to Cohen to demand an explanation they found his place closed up by the sheriff. SCIENTIST ( lTlBCH AFIRE. People Compelled to Make Their Ms cape by Means of a Ladder. The brick building at 619 Adams ave nue, occupied by Church of Christ, (Scientist), on the first lloor and private apartments on the second and third Moors, was visited by a slight tire last evening shortly before o'clock. - The flames started in the basement and were not discovered until the peo ple living In the upper apartments smelled the smoke. Some of them es caped by the staircase, but several oth ers, who were on the top lloor, could not make their way through the thick smoke In the hallways and made for the balcony on the second floor, from which they reached the ground by means of a ladder. Second Alarm Sent In. When the central city fire companies arrived smoke was pouring In dense volumes from all the windows and doors, and believing that a serious conflagra tion was Imminent Chief Ferber sent in a second alarm for the Relief and Cen tury companies so that ample protec tion would be on hand In case tho Humes should spread to the densely built houses In thnt locality. d.uckily, however, the flames made little progress owing to the building be ing of brick, and although It had a good start before being discovered, the ex ertions of the firemen resulted in Its be ing con lined to the basement. The tire Is supposed to have communicated from a email furnace In which a fire Is kept to heat the water for the baths. - Some benches and chairs and other old material which was stored In the basement by the church people was de stroyed and the flooring of the church hall was so badly charred that It will have to be replaced. Beyond this no damage resulted. Occupants of tho llulldlng. The second floor was occupied by Dr. James Steln, Iteglster of Wills W. S. Hopkins, U. J. Avery, E. M. Jones and Mrs. Crago and family. Mrs. Crago's brother-in-law and sinter, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hescoth, of Susquehanna, and her two sons were the ones who were compelled to make their escape by way of the ladder. Mrs. Crago herself was not In the house at the time of the fire. A. I.. Jones, T. J. Kelly and the Janl trets. Miss Meade, occupied the third floor. Those of the occupants of the third floor who were In the building at the time had to tight 'their way through the smuke. v The building is owned by Mrs. Susan Spencer, and Is insured.

THEY ARE BOO KG S0TH Ei-Judge's Friends Kant t State Nomination for Him. SUPERIOR. COURT THE OFFICE Say That lie Will Be Nominated at the State Convention Which Meets In Willlameport Sept. 1 1 -Names of tbe Local Delegates. "Kx-Judge P. P. Smith will be one of the Democratic candidates for judge of the superior court," said a well known Deuiocrut to a Tribune reporter yesterday. "Has he announced his candidacy?" queried the reporter. "No, I do not think that he has In so many words, but his friends who broached the matter to him are now at work In his In teres ts, from which I draw the conclusion that he has no Berlous objections to allowing his name to go before the state convention at Wllllamsport, Sept. 11. There Is one Democrat sure to be elected and Judge Smith's friends think that he may be the fortunate one. At all events they believe it is worth while making an en'ort In his behalf. 'The nomination they say will be ac corded to him when the leaders of the party get together to make up a slate before the. convention. This part of the state will demand a place on the ticket and that demand will undoubt edly be recognized, for the Lackawanna Democrats are uot without Influence In the state convention. "The place having been accorded Judge Smith will be brought forward as the unanimous choice of the Demo crats of this and adjoining counties for the place and bo noiuliiuted without difficulty, of course there are u num ber of little things that might arise to defeat this plan, but at present there seems to reason that I can see why It should not go through. The Judge's defeats In this county, I do not think, would weaken him In a state fight." Muke I'p of tho Court. The superior court Is made up of seven Judges, and, according to the act creating it, there can be no more than six of one party on the bench; the minority party must be represented by one judge, and he will be the one who receives the highest number of votes of the 'Democratic nominees, as suming that the six Itepubllcun judges will be elected, which Is altogether probable. Each party entitled to a place on the official ballot Is privileged to nominate six candidates for the judgeship. When the smoke of the battle clears away and the vote is counted the seven highest candidates will be the judges for the next ten years. The present Democratic member of the court Is Judge Henry J. 'MoCurthy, of Phila delphia, who was appointed to the po sition by Governor Hastings. Nine delegates will represent Lacka wanna county In the Democratic state convention; It will assemble at Wll llamsport on Wednesday, Sept. 11. The names of the delegates are; First legislative district, Postmaster Frank M. Vantlllng and Peter J. McCnnn; Second district, Charles H. Schadt, John E. Roche and Edward Robinson; Third district, James O. Bailey; Fourth district. Attorney T. J. Dug gan, of Dunmore; J. F. McDonnell, of Curbondale, and J. AV. O'Brien, of Olyphant. Want tho Colonel's F.lnqncnee. Although he Is not a delegate to the convention It is said that Colonel F. J. Fitzsimmons will go to the Wllllams port convention as a proxy, and muke tho speech nominating Judge Smith. Judgo Smith's friends do not figure out his election on the strength of any defection In the Republican ranks, but estimate that he can carry a ma jority In the race among his colleagues on the Democratic ticket. ROCHESTER WANTS HIM. Physical Director Weston Has Received an Offer from tho Y. M. C. A. There. A committee of the Young Men's Christian association of Rochester, N. Y., has tendered Physical Director Weston, of the Young Men's Christian association of this city, a most encour aging offer to take charge of the gym nasium of their organization, which is one of the finest In the country.
