Statement from Captain Hart.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The Crown KIhk fool ball team de
sire to make the following statement:
The frown Kins foot ball team has been
oiajanizeil since the loot ball season starl
et I and ilurliur that time bus proved itself
the strongest, most seleneed and most jren
tleiiiMiily lot of players that ever battled
for supremacy on the gridiron hereabouts.
The game last Sunday broke up lu a
wraiiKle. it is true; but not until the
(.'ruwn K'lnKS did all In their power to have
file name tsu on, coneediiiB everything
that was reasonable.
Immediately after the ball was put in
play last Sunday until the mimi" broke up
It was a conspicuous fact that tlie Crown
Kings were playlnii loo Strom; a Maine and
were fast ' snowing their opponents, the
Crescents, under. After ten minutes'
play, the Crown Kings secured a touch
down and a goal. It could lie easily reen
afterward that the Crescents fried all
plans to have the game broke up, so as lo
have an excuse for avoiding the over
whelming defeat which they would re
ceive. The ball was punted, and in tlie
senllle one of the Creeents deliberately
fouled one of the Crown Kings. For this
the umpire, the chief otllclal in n foot ball
game, allowed the Crown Ivlntsa llfteen
yards.
The umpire gave Ills decision without
prejudice, and the Crown Kings seeing;
that their opponents would not abide by
his decision left the Held. The Crown
Kings will post from $Ti to $"() wilh tile
Sporting 'ICditor of any of the dally pa
pers, and will nllow the above amount
to the Crescents, If they can't duplicate
the feat of last Sunday nguln next Sun
day on the James Hoys' grounds, provid
ing however, that the Crescents does like
wise. The Crown Klntrs have won all
their battles on the foot hall Held and not
in Hie newspapers; ho If the Crescents
mean business, let them post their money
and we will do the rest. II. Hart.

.Tlisfhirt' Case.
Six assault ami battery cases and one
of malicious mischief were tried in
criminal court before Judge Kdwards
yesterday, in live of the cases, the
defendants weiv mulcted for ull or a
part of the costs.
one of the cases has an amusing
feature connected with It. Michael IV
nnui was prosector in assault and bat
tery charges against Joint and Michael
Kin-hick. The ease was called, but
Poiiito was not present, so court di
rected the Jury to find a verdict of not
guilty and place the costs on tile prose
cutor. Just as the jury rendered their
milling, the prosecutor came breath
lessly into court and hurried up to Dis
trict Attorney John 11. Junes, to b t
him know he was ready to proceed,
in: tend of beini,' invited to a seat al
the prosecutor's table, he was inarched
before J tiiigo Kdwards mid told that he
could consider himself a piisi.net- until
he had paid the costs imposed on him.
He was a very much perturbed and
deeply disgusted man. During the af
ternoon he secured bis release under
the insolvency laws.
Maggie Ouinn. Id' 1 'in llrool;, was
the first called to answer the i barge 1 f
assault and battery. Annie Hrown was
tlie accuser. Vbe nllegat'011 was that
tint defendant slapped tlie 4-year-obl
child of tin- prosecutrix, because the
Hrown child had shinned her child.
The jury said not gitiliy and ilivhh d
the costs. ' Attorney John F. .Seiuggr
represented the defense.
SliKUiDAX AXD MofiKK.
l'atriek Shi-rld.'tu and Frank MoCce,
of I'arbondale. were the parlies in
case Xo. i MeiSeo said he hoarded
with Sheridan, but owing to some dis
pute witti Mis. Sheridan, was ordered
to leave and did. .Shortly afterwards
Sheridan met him walking along the
Ontario nnd Western railroad truck,
and without a word assaulted him and
knocked him down. Tile defendant did
not deny striking Mel ice, but averred
that MeUce bulled him with libi head
in the vest, and that he was only act
ing in self-defense. Not guilty, costs
divided, ugain said the Jury. Attor
ney A. A. Vosinirg defended Sheridan.
Pfoviilciice furnished the next case.
The parties were James .Murphy and
James Clark. Clark testllled that he
went into l.yneh's saloon Aug. S last
and had no sooner set his foot Inside
the door than Murphy made an insult
ing remark about him. He slapped his
detractor across the face with the hack
of his hand and warned him lo keep
his distance. He then retired to tho
back room and was sitting there read
ing a paper when Murphy came lu and
apologized. They shook hands and
agreed to be fi loudly. A minute later
Murphy struck him over the eye with
a beer glass, cutting a deep gash which
endangered tlie sight of the eye. Mur
phy put in the defense that Clark lirst
attempted to strike hiin. The Jury
found hiui guilty, but recommended
mercy. Attorney A. A. Vosburg ap
peared for the defense.
HIT HIM WITH A PAIL.
Peter Keiber rented n house from K.
II. Pickering, in Dunmore. He couldn't
pay his rent and hud to leave. Some of
his cliifhinit had been bit behind, and
returning to get it he found the door
locked, lie pounded on the door, and
Pickering coming down, ordered him to
ib-sist. Thereupon, according to the
story of Hie prosecution, Keiber felled
Pickering to the ground with a blow
oil the head from a dinner pail which
lieilicr carried at the time,' Keiber said
in defense that Pickering struck him
with a wiillilng stick and that he mere
ly pushed hiin away. Not guilty, prose
cutor to pav costs was the llndina of
the jury. Attorney lleorge M. Watson
defended Keiber. Mr. Diehle, of Wat
son, Dielile & Hall, assisted In the
prosecution.
That a woman would and did break
down her own door und then charge
her neighbor with the crime was tho
belief of one Jury that went out to de
liberate yesterday. Henna Kose, of
the South Side, ,vns the woman who
owned the door. Hannah Andrews wus
the neighbor she charged with batter
ing It down in a spirit of malice.
Mrs. I use swore that Mrs. Andrews
came to her house and dared her to
come out. Mrs. Kose came out, but see
ing thai Mrs. Andrews was accompa
nied by two bricks, she retreated. Mrs.
Andrews thereupon threw the bricks
through the panels of the door. Mis.
Andrews said in defense that this was
all untrue and brought forth testimony
to show that niter sin- a-.ul Mrs. I use
had had a little war of. words, Mrs.
Kose battered down her "own door and
then proceeded to an nlderman's olllce
and had a warrant Issued charging her
with malicious mischief. The jury not
only said not guilty, but put the costs
on the prosecutrix. Attorney tleorge
