Under this regulation it 1 is claimed that tho figures added a to the New York score for places j won by Wiegand, Barry, Coudon, Babcock 1 and Gilbert should be taken off and tho 3 points made by K61b, Powers and Oodshall 1 for tho Manhattans deducted.

The Manhattan Athletio Club has started a football team, which, after practice with smaller clubs, will, it is hoped, be ablo to give the New York Athletio Club's giant j rushers a tussle.

I The Staten Island and Manhattan Athletio and Essex County (N. J.) Toboggan Clubs have formed a combination to cio three monster minstrel entertainments before the holidays. One will be given at Staten Island, another at Orange, N. J., and the third at somo opera-house in this city. Tho very latest in the Carter case is that the.fivo-mile record breaker is to be tried in England by tho " three A'b," the Amateur Athletio Association of Oreat Britain, as a Finchley Harrier on tho evidence produced at his American trial. Carter was a member of tho Finohley Harriers before his first trip , tofcthis country and his competing in a two- 1 f mile club run of this club while abroad lost summer gives the English Association juris diction in his case. Mr. O. O. Hughes says the Manhattan Athletio Club amateurs, Whito, Both and Fleischman are in no danger of being de clared professionals because they sparred find swung clubs at the Manhattan's recent ft entertainment, because they did not com- V pete for n prizo, but only gave exhibitions, and because it was not a gate-money meeting.

Applicant That's the very raysnm I refer to yez, j mnnu it would be best to lock the cabin. We en tered it for that purpose, and after having secured the doors of the staterooms and closed the ports, we turned to leave it, Dray ton preceding mo towards the deck. Half way up the companion-way it suddenly oc curred to me that I had left my cigar-case on the table and I returned to get it. As I again stepped into the apartment I saw, clearly denned, at the upper end of the bunk on the starboard side upon the partition, close by the stateroom door, tho shadow in profile of the face and figure of a man. The shade appeared to bo cast by some very tall person sitting on the bunk to my right, forward : but there was no one there, as a matter of course I began to doubt the ovidonce of my sensos and stood for a moment looking about me in bewilderment. Recovering my self, however, I approached the corner, con vinced that the dark-gray shadow was a stain upon the paint. Apparently it was not. From the chair near the harmonium I took looso sheet of mUsio, and, holding it between the shadow and the light, I looked behind it and perceived that that portion of the shadow a part of the head and face between whieh and the light I had interposed tho obstacle had boon obliterated. On looking at the sur. face of the paper in ray hand I beheld the missing portion of tho shado clearly eil. houetted thereon, Having thus satisfied my self that it was a shadow and one cast by some (to me) invisible and impalpable thing or substance, I hardly need add that I be. camo somewhat excited. I shouted to Dray ton, who immediately ran baok into the cabin, followed by tho dog. His examina tion of the phenomenon resulted exactly as mine had. On turning, at its conclusion, to speak to Boy, we found to our surprise that he had left us. Although we triod our best, neither by persuasion nor command could wo move him to enter the cabin again. We looked at each other nonplussed, Drayton and I, and I am willing to confess that mingled with my feeling of triumph at having thna convinoed him that there were others at work beside ourselves aboard the mysterious derelict was an uncomfortable consciousness that the weird annoyance was CHAT ABOUT THE THEATRES.

Somo "iS- 0f them suggested that a discrimination between girls and women was somowhat necessary, and a few wero gray and wrinkled. Mrs. Fernandez surveyed them with that comprehensive motherly gaze for which she is justly famous. Mr. Frohman was, perhaps, just a triflo less motherly. His eyo was attracted by a young woman who stood with her back to him, and who woro a magnificent walking dress and n superbly caparisoned hat. "What does sho wont with $10 a week?" whispered Mr. Frohman to Mrs. Fernandez. "That dress cost $125 if a cent," said tho lady, "and tho bonnet is ono of Virot'sI'm pretty sure," "Well, slio's worth engaging," continued the artful Frohman, his manly soul going out to the bonnet. Perhaps, Mrs. Fernan dez, I'd better engage her." " Why," said tho lady, " you've put me in ohargo of these girls. Why bother yoursolf with this girl ?" " Well," said Mr. Frohmun, " you have so muoh to do I would like to relievo you." " Word was then sent to the owner of the Yirot bonnot, and Mr. Frohman went to the back of the room to wait for her.

The Langnace of Gloves. (Von Oil Bla: The language of gloves Is a species of telegraphy largely resorted to by young lovers In this country (France). A young Udy says " Yes " by droppln her right glove Into her left hand; "No," by roll ing the two gloves together. She conveys the In vitation, "Follow me Into the garden" by the Santomlme of brushing an Imaginary speck of oat oft her left arm wlih one or both gloves. The manoeuvre of drawing one hand over them as if to smooth the leather means "I love you still the same. " Should she desire to know if her feelings are reciprocated, she will partially remove the left Rlove. " Be circumspect " Is expressed by turning le ends ofthe glove of either hand delicately around the fingers. Lastly, If the lady has any thing to complain of In her lover's conduct, she expresses her dlsiatlifactlon by placing her gloves In the form of a cross on the table or on her lap. beginning to tell on my nerves and to excite my imagination disagreeably as to what was to come next. Still I entertained "not the least doubt that we were the victim of some jugglery practised upon us for some unex plained reason by hidden human agents. I was morally certain that this was the case. I bad not, of course, had time to reason with myself as to the logio of the conclusion, bnt it was the only natural one, and certainly no other explanation of what I had seen oc curred to me. Consideration of possible supernatural causes or solutions was out of the question with both of us. Jack Drayton was as free from superstitious fancies as he was incapable of fear, and I may claim to havo been his counterpart in the former respect. Slowly, as wo looked upon it, the strange, shadow fadod out. After a vain searoh of half an hour, and fruitless experiments with the lights and shadows of the cabin, we locked the companion-way and returned to the yaoht to dine. By 8 o'clock, having completed our ar rangements, wo went back to the brigantino to pass tho night in her cabin. Boy received us on deck, and we tried again, but in vain, to induce him to enter the apartment with us. His refusal annoyed us both. It was In comprehensible. Wo, however, prepared oifrselves for tho night. Drayton established himself in the forward starboard corner on the bunk, looking aft the shadow's corner. I made myself comfortable in the port corner aft, diagonally opposite and facing him. We thus between us commanded a full view of the cabin and the four staterooms, the doors of which we had reopened. The dog roamed restlessly about the decks until a little before midnight, when I heard him lie down across the entrance to the companion-way. At 12. IB o'clock I looked at my watch at the monient without any premoni tion, the three cabin lamps one over Dray ton's head, one over mine and one over tho centre of the table suddenly became dim. This was surprising, as we had carefully filled and trimmed them $11 before lighting them. I got np to examine that nearest me, turning- my back to Drayton.

Turning again I sow my companion, with his cocked revolver in hand, stop to the door. His face was pale and rigid and his eyes fierco and fixed. He moved to the table and raised the weapon. With an indescrib able sensation of dread I looked in the di rection of his aim and thore, not five feet from where I stood, on tho inside edge of one of the, open ports, I saw a large, coarse, bloated hand clinging, and behind it. out side, at the shoulder, the ghastly brutal face of the man I had seen cross the dock in the afternoon. The dark, lead-colored eyes seomed peering into tho cabin. Almost over come by mingled horror and disgust (I can convey no idea of the loathesomeness of this man's appearance), I was somewhat relieved by the cold, clear tones of Drayton's voice, as I heard him say : " Now. my man, I have you in range. I'm a passablo snot, and if you movo, I shall firn. Who are you 1 and what deviltry aro you en gaged in hero ? Thero was no reply. After a pause Dray, ton spoke again. " I intend to have an answer. If you don't' speak up before I say three I shall firo any v ay. Wo are not to he trilled with." Still there was no reply and after a pause of about ten seconds Drayton counted very slpwly, " one two three," and then fol lowed tho flash and report of a pistol. The man at the porthole did not move, Drayton, with wonderful nerve, raised tho weapon again i but o en as he did so tho faco and hand disappeared. Not instantly; but, as if drawn slowly back, thuy seemed to bo swallowed up in the darkness without. As they faded away the light in tho cabin waned again i and crying to mo, " Stay wbero you are and keep the dog with you '' (the dog had bounded into tho cabin half involuntarily, I suppose, at the report of tho pistol), Drayton hurried on deck. I seized Boy's collar, and at tho moment the doors of all four staterooms, although there was not the slightest luroh of the. ves sel, slowly but steadily swung and silently I closed, as did also, the skylights, the porta and the slldlng-hntcn and doors of the com- SKSN SCALP BLOOD.

Somo now designs aro shown in blue and pink, in Saxon china. The harlequin stylo of having each plate in n different color and design has cone out. The plates for ono course are now all alike. Thore is always a demand for custard cups. The newest design is in low, round cut and engraved glass, with handles. Thoy cost $50 a dozen. tn engraved glass, which is becoming ex. tremely popular, there ore high straight glasses, exquisitely engraved with floral de signs, for holding a few cut flowers.

My recollection of what followed is per fectly clear nay, vivid but it is not in my power to write an adequate description of it. All I can do is to relate what occurred as I actually saw and felt it. Appreciation of tho horror of my position I muift leave, with but on intimation of it, to tho imagination of the reader. On finding myself thus closed in my first undefined idea naturally was to reach the deck and call Drayton. I was startled, but I do not think I was afraid at first. Borne new trick was about to bo played upon us, and I minted him to see what it was with roe. It did nqt occur to mo that tho companion hatch could havo been mado fast, so I turned to tho steps, the dog accompanying we closely too closely in fact. As I raised my foot I felt thnt I was unnbh) to place it on tbo first stnir. It was as though the exit from the cabin had been walled up. A second at tempt was equally iu vain. I endeav ored to precipitate myself into tho companionway. I might as veil havo tried to walk through a wall of solid rock, nnd still, in extending mv hands and looking before mo, I folt nothing but a soft, though forbidding pressure, and 'saw nothing but tho open btulrwny. I cannot hay whether my sensation was one of terror or bewilderment perhaps it was it mingling of the two, I called aloud with tho full strength of roy lungs, but thu sound of my voice seomed strangely tnufiled, even while I was perfectly conscious thnt I had full possession of my senses. During all this time tho dog had been pressing dose ogaiust me. trembling like a loaf slitidderiug. I laid my hand on his head. It was hot to the touch. I looked down at him. With his ears laid back, his eyes protruding and his tonguo hanging out he vtas tho picture of terror such a ptoturo as I hope never to see again. A great, fearless, noble mastiff utterly abject and cowering like any little cur. And now the cabin lamps wero suddenly extinguished and only a small lantern left burning on the table. Tho atmosphere be. came oppressively hot and a musty, mouldy An Extraordinary Number. ' ' JjM TO-MORROW'S SUNDAY WORLDS 1 A NEWSPAPER AND MAGAZINE COMBIPD. . H 32 PAGES, 224 COLUMNS, M , FOR.

In the deep ened darkness I turned to look behind me with an added f orboding if my horror may be said not to have reached its acino already. Beneath tho door of the starboard state room, forward, I saw a brilliant line of light, and in the same place aa before the weird shadow' of the afternoon, now bent over as though be who cast it there were listening at the door. With my hand still on the mastiff's head, and impelled by some power not my own and stronger than my will, I?moved towards the shade. My third atop placed me directly in front of one of the large leather louncing-chalrs, whioh was so situated as to squarely face the dreadful cor ner. Into this chair I sank not only invol untarily, but seemingly by physical compul sion, tho dog btunding against it beside me. As again I laid my hand upon him I felt that ho was rigid and strained in eery muscle. As I gazed nt tiio shadow it slowly became upright and huge and cast itself clearly upon tho door, which immediately swung open without sound. With this phenomenon an indefinable sensation of almost intolerablo I treasure camo upon mo. I folt as though loiind with iron or incased in lead. The chair seemed to hold me iu a vise-like em brace. All power of motion left mo. 1 tried to speak. I was dumb. Tho silonco waa awful, my sunso of loneliness appalling. My mind, liowover, was most acttvo and acute, and after a moment every faculty seemed to bo concentrated upon attention to what was going on boforo me. Within the stateroom I saw a short, thick set man seated on n camp-stool beside the berth, under a hanging lamp whioh shed a brilliant light. With his faco in his hands and his head leaning against the partition beforo him, ho seemed asleep: but I could not bee that he breathed. Ilehlnd him and half turned from mo, I saw one standing who seemed to me to be the original of the shadow and who, as I lookod, raised his right arm in tho air and dealt the sleeping man a terrible blow at the back of the head with a heavy rriarline-spike. crushing the skull and killing the victim instantly.
