WILL PLAY
TWO GAMES.
Marions to Tackle a Team from
New Brunswick on Decora
tion Day.
CRESCENTS OF PHILA.
The Marions decided to play two
games on Decoration Dav and the
Attraction in the morning game will
be the Sixth Ward Athletic Club, of
New Brunswick. The afternoon game
With the Gresoents has already been
announced. It will doubtless cause
some surprise to think that the county
seat is going to send a team here but
the managers of the club say that
they are willing to spend a large sum
of money to put a winning team in
the field and thev declare that the
plavers they have secured are more
than able to cope with the locals.
They say the Marions will ^have the
biggest surprise they ever received if
they expect a walkover on Decoration
Day.
The county seat has long viewed
with envious eyes the remarkable
?access of the Marions on the diamond
and has bitterly regretted the fact
that no team has harbored there strong
enough to k lower the colors of the
Perth Amboy cha-.rpions. They esti
mate that nearly four hundred citizens
of New Brnnswick will be 011 hand
to eheer them to victory and the locals
of course will have their usual large
following so that the game from the
rooter's standpoint will have lots of
excitement.

With the Weather Prophet.
NEW YORK, May 20. ? "There's
something coming this way," said Fore
cast Official Emery as he looked
thoughtfully out of a twentieth story
window of the American Surety build
ing. A haze of smoke lay upon the city,
and everything looked hot, and dry.
"Looks like showers. Guess it will be
?hdwers tonight or tomoi :ow," he went
on cheerfully. "A very peculiar condi
tion exists over the country, a gre?t
Variety of climate. The weather is fair
In the gulf and Atlantic states, with
Using temperature from New York to
Vfrglnia and slighter changes in the
Other eastern states. There has been
Htlb from Michigan and Wisconsin
west to the Rocky mountains, with a
continuation of snow in sections of
Montana, where as much as nine inch
es has fallen. The record for yesterday
was 90 in 1877. The record for May is
88, May 31, 1895. Drought has contin
ued thirty-three days."

"R U going to the cirons?" "Why
oircnsly!" At least that is what
nearly everybody in town has said the
last few davs, and why shouldn't they
go? This dircus promises to surpass
Anything that has ever been seen in

here for local stage prodnctions and
why not for a circus?
The chairman of Committee on
Arranagements is securing the services

the people as to who will do the bare
back riding and who will be the
strong men, eto. The enthusiasm
with which the Idea is being received

DISTURBED LAND LEAGUERS.
Redmond Tells of an Irresponsible
Jnntn In Dublin.
LONDON, May 20.? John Redmond,
M. P.. has made a statement concern
ing the disorderly proceedings at the
meeting of citizens held in the Dublin
rotunda in support of the Irish parlia
mentary fund. Mr. Redmond says:
"The disturbance would have been
easily nipped at the outset, but the peo
ple naturally shrank from using force
to remove Mrs. McBride (formerly
Maud Gonne) and other ladies who led
the disorder. After awhile these ladies
left, and the other disturbers were
speedily removed. They consisted of
thirty or forty young men who acted
in concert. They were roughly and
violently treated, which I regretted, but
it was impossible to restrain the peo
ple. The disturbance was quickly
over, and for two hours after unanimi
ty and enthusiasm prevailed. Long
speeches were delivered, resolutions in
conformity with the object of the meet
ing were unanimously adopted and
large sums were subscribed to the Irish
parliamentary fund. On emerging into
the street Lord Mayor Harrington re
ceived an enthusiastic ovation. The
disturbance was planned by an irre
sponsible junta in Dublin who are ex
asperated at the peaceful prospects for
Ireland."
Anniversary of Cuban Republic.
HAVANA, May 20.? President Palma
has received a message of congratula
tion from the Sons of the American
Revolution on the occasion of the anni
versary of the birth of the Cuban re
public. The congratulations invoke the
divine favor on Cuba, and the hope is
expressed that "liberty will continue to
be perpetuated as the result of the
sacrifice of blood and treasusre by the
Cubans and their American compatri
ots." On account of the death at Te
gucigalpa, Honduras, of Gonzalo De
guardiola, a brother of Mrs. Palma,
President Palma will not participate in
any public functions today excepting
an official reception. He has declared
his intention of vetoing the National
lottery bill if it is passed by congress.
The house of representatives is said to
be overwhelmingly in favor of the lot
tery bill.

with citizens, the president drove from
the depot to the grand stand, which
was crowded with school children, who
presented a pretty appearance, each of
the several thousand little ones waving
an American flag. The president was
evidently impressed with the scene, for
he raised his hat to the little ones in
gracious recognition of the hearty
cheers.

took in this society. The American wo
men of London, he said, never lost an
opportunity of showing public spirit in
all such causes. They were glad to

"where the American sailor will al
ways find himself at home and be
gladdened by the sight of our glorious
flag, the stars and stripes."
