KO CHESTER DEMOCRAT AND CHRONICLE SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 18S9. STUDIO DAY. THE COUNTY CANVASS. IN THE WORLD OF SPORT NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Co.

Woolf Bendoil for 4,500, the largest stake ever fought for, has challenged any middleweight in America or England for from 2, 500 to 5, 000 a side. Tennis players in general are deeply interested over the proposed international court tennis match for the world's professional championship between Thomas Pettit, instructor at the Boston Athletic Club and the present champion, and Charles Saunders, the English champion. El Rio Rey is improving rapidly and is on the high road to complete recovery. All thoughts of returning him to Lis home in California are abandoned for the present. Whether his illness will leave his wind affected is uncertain.

Perhaps it could not be determined until he has had a gallop, as the glands may thicken only slightly. John Lewis, the colored jockey, and brother of Ike Lewis, the crack Western -jockey, was locked up in the house of detention at New York yesterday in default of 100 to appear at the trial of Joseph De-costo, whom Lewis charged with stealing $47 from him while he was asleep. Lewis has three mounts at Clifton Monday. The new resolution adopted last Monday not only debars Wagonhurst from playing, but also George, their center rusher. also has a tendency to show that the Utopian scheme of John Ward has died a bornin.

"A big nail was driven into the Brotherhood players' coflin to-day, said an anti-Brotherhood man. Thomas P. Dalj, a Brotherhood player and late catcher of the Washington club, signed a contract with the Brooklyn club. He said he had attended the recent Brotherhood meetings, but as he saw nobody around to guarantee him any salary, and having a family to support, he concluded to sign with Brooklyn. C.

THE YACHTING MEETING. A Hamilton dispatch says The annual meeting of the Lake Yachting Association was held here to-day. Delegates were present from Rochester, Oswego, Toronto, Belleville, Kingston and Buffalo. The association decided to do away with the present mode of classifying by water line, and substitute therefor classification by corrected length. Under this system both length and sail may be considered constant as in present models.

Both are variable. The classification is 25 feet corrected length and under 30 feet corrected length, nndcr 35 feet corrected length, under 40 feet corrected length, under 46 feet corrected length and for the SPECIALTIES.

Lampert, president of the Rochester Art Club, began a.

series of ''visitor's days" at her studio which she intends to continue on Saturday afternoons through the winter. Her example is so good that the other artists in Rochester ought to follow it, choosing the Fame afternoon. Studio day would soon become a recognized and valuable institution affording to artistic people a chance to meet other artistic people informally amid artistic surroundings to the artists a pleasant weekly break in the week's monotony; and to the very many who have no knowledge of how many good artists there are in Rochester, and how good work they are doing, an opportunity to find out something. Miss Lampert 's informal reception yesterday afternoon was a great success. The many of her friends who passed a pleasant hour in her studio were at a loss which to admire most, her charmingly fitted-up rooms, or the pictures she has brought with her from her long sojourn on the Massachusetts coast.

For her new rooms on the eighth floor of the Powers building are more like the studios one reads about and sees pictures of than any other rooms in Rochester. Spacious, airy, well lighted from the north and with western windows looking toward the cunset, they are so tastefully crowded with artistic properties, curtains, rugs, bits of drapery, bits of pottery, bits of copper, and bits of everything else that is shapely in form and rich in color, that they are a delight to the eye, and the artist has every reason for her pride in them. Rut she has more reason to be proud of the pictures she has brought back with her, for they mark a very distinct step forward iu her artistic career. It will doubtless seem almost a heresy to Miss Lampert' 8 admirers to even suggest that there has been room for improvement in her work. Always so true in tone, always so poetic in feeling, and always showing so thorough a mastery of the resources of her art.

But Miss Lampert has never before been such a co jrist as she has become during the past few months. The crisp Atlantic breezes have blown away the mist of gray, so loved by the French school, from between her eyes and the bright skies, blue waters, purple violet and rich gray rocks, golden brown sea-weeds and vividly green sedges about Cape Ann and (jrloucester, ana the result is such painting as she never did before. Coloring so rich, so strong, so pure, so harmonious, so effective and so true as is in some of her new pictures, is something that few artists ever attain to and any artist may be proud of. Miss Lampert' new sketches are worth frequent visits and close scrutiny, Iler pupils can find no better color studies. MR.

BURDICK SPEAKS. The Temperance Orator's Farewell to His Friends in Rochester. The Knights of Temperance gave an en tertainment lost evening at their hall for the purpose of raising funds for their work. The hall was crowded, and after a pleasant programme of recitations, vocal and instrumental music, Mr. Rurdick made a short address.

He spoke in his usual happy style, inter spersing ins remarks witn illustrative stories. An abstract of his talk is aa follows 4 There Is something connected with this work in which we go out to lift up the fallen that brings us nearer to Uod than anything else. Reformed men delight in helping those who are in the condition they once were, yet there are too many people In this world who forget the sacrifices that are made for them. I believe that no meetings that have been held in Rochester have ever reached rock bottom as Lave those held by this society. Two classes are coming to be recognized in this city, those for and those against the liquor traffic.

I am very glad that it has been my privilege to be with you again in this city. I feel that the opportunities for work have never been better than they are now. Some persons are coming to feel that their indifference has had a more harmful effect than the combined power of the liquor interests. lou and I can live a great while. "We have not a guarantee of a single day.

The question is, whether we are willing to have God measure up our past lives now. I look on death differently from what I used to, though I like to live as well as anybody. It is not such a terrible thing to be transferred from the burdens of this life to the joys of eternity. I want you all to pray for me the next two weeks, for we are going to have a hard fight where I am going. Though believe that argument directed by the spirit will have its effect.

Mr. Burdick begins nexc week a series of meetings in Plamfield, X. J. and takes with him the good wishes of his many friends in Rochester. MORTUARY MATTERS.

CORNELL DEFEATED BY YALE In the Foot Ball Game at terday The Score was to Nothing in Favor Blue Jottings. Ithaca Yes- Seventy of the Yale played football with Cornell yester day afternoon and defeated the Ithacans by a score of 70 to 0. The following special dispatch tells the story of the game The Cornell University football team which has been defeated but once during the season and that by Yale, again encountered the champions of America to-day in are- turn game. A large and very enthusiastic crowd witnessed the game and the students were confident that Cornell would score, but they were disappointed and Yale most effectually revenged herself for the score that Cornel made against her at New Haven three weeks ago. Yale brought her best team and seemed to have no weak points.

They slugged heavily, rushed hard and were always ready to drop on the ball. There were no individual brilliant plavs on the side of either team, though Gill, Heillellinger and Warkenburg did the best playing for Yale, and Osgood and Thayer for Cornell. Coflin, of Weslyean, acted as referee and of Cornell as umpire. When the game was called Yale had the ball and in two minutes had made a touch down. The first half was played on Cor nell 's territory and Yale kept receivin touen downs ana Kicking goals.

Harris in the home team was quite seriously hurt in scrimmage ana carnea oft tne ueia unconscious. Umpire Flay made a very un just decision against Cornell after which he resigned and Wallace of Yale acted. AVhen time was called at the half the score stood 38 to nothing. During the second half very hard playing was done by Cornell, but she was handicapped iu having several men disabled. Though plucky and deter mined, they steadily gave way to the su perior strength of the Yale men.

In the early part of the second nail JlcDowal was disabled and Harvey substituted. Rhodes on the Yale team, received a knee sprain and retired. In the melintime Yale was running up the score, when by a heavy kick Cornell sent the ball near the ale goal and every body thought Cornell would score. But the umpire at this point disqualified Dun, right end, for slugging, which materially weak ened the home team. Again Yale rushed the ball back on Cornell's territory.

Harvey, full back, was then laid up with a sprained ankle and McDowall again limped upon the field. Cornell' was now much weakened and when time was called the score stood 70 to nothing iu favor of Yale. November 23rd Cornell will play Columbia at New ork. The Associated Press sends the following account of the same game Ithaca, N. Y.

Nov, i). Two thousand persons witnessed the Yalo-Cornell football game here to-day. From start to finish Yale had everything its own way. The Cornell men expected their eleven to make a creditable showing and are chagrined at the result. The final score was TO to 0.

Cornell playing was weak throughout ad the ball rarely got on its opponents' territory. One visitor and three Cornell men were laid out. Some good individual plays were made by Cornell but its team work showed lack of practice, skill and science. AXTELL'8 RECORD BROKEX. A San Francisco dispatch dated yesterday says The lovers of the turf were given an exhibition at the Bay District track this afternoon such as never bi fore has been seen on the Pacific coast.

The great event of the day was the performance of Senator Stanford's filly Sunol which made the remarkable time of thus lowering the three -year-old record of ft. 1 2, recently made by Axtell. During the last few weeks horsemen have been greatly Interested in the approaching test of Sunol 's capabilities and there was a big crowd present to see her. She was accompanied by a running horse during the trial. The start was made with the latter about a furlong behind.

Sunol reached the quarter in 32 seconds she went to the half in 1 :05, and it then seemed certain that, barring a break, she would succeed in lowering the record. Her time to the third quarter was 1 The runner pressed her closely down the stretch, and Marvin, her driver, applied the whip, but the colt did not make the slightest skip, and passed under the wire in When the time was announced there was wild cheering among the spectators and the enthusiasm continued several minutes. Von Wilke's yearling stallion's record of 2 was also lowered this afternoon by Count Valeusin's Faustino, which trotted a mile in 2 :35. The third record lowered at the Bay District track to-day was by Regal Wilkes, who started to beat Axtell' two year old stallion record of 2 Regal Wilkes trotted the mile in 2 Stamboul also trotted td-day to make 2 on a wager that he would accomplish the feat before the close of the year. His time Was which lowers his own record by one second.

Palo Afto started to beat ihe stallion record of 2:12, but he broke badly on the stretch and finished in 2 :12.. THAT BROTHERHOOD SCHEME. Jerry Denny, as the following dispatch from Indianapolis will show, has refused to go into the Brotherhood League. It is ex tremely probable that Denny's action will be followed by all the players who have their heads with them. The dispatch follows "Jerry Denny, the great third-baseman, will not join tue Brotherhood.

He says It is evident that it is the intention of the promoters of the Brotherhood League to leather their own nests and leave the rest of us, who have always suffered, to the same old condition. Base ball playing is my business and I don't want to jump into an airy project, at the sacrifice of what I now have. I don't propose to have a contract to play in Pittsburg or some such place at a stipulated sum thrust under my nose, for me to sign, and then whistle for my pay. I propose to stay in Indianapolis, where I have received the best treatment. As I understand the scheme, I am not relieved of any of the burdens now placed upon me, but I am to be classified by some of those who have always received $4, 000 or $5, 000 a season, at no doubt the same old figure.

I think all players should be given the advantage of transfers and entitled to a portion of the purchase money. I don't know whether Glasscock will remain with the Brotherhood, but I have informed him of my intention and expect him here next week. I don't know what the other boys in the club will do, but I shall remain with Brush. The Indianapolis club was represented at the Brotherhood meeting by Ed. Andrews, who to all appearance might as well have remained at home.

The idea of offering the presidency of the Brotherhood League to John Morrill, after Al. Johnson refused it, shows how the back numbers propose to get in their work. The following dispatch from New York Another Special Sale of TON OVERCOATS Saturday, Nov. 16th. Yale cannot now play Bull, Beecher, Terry or Corbin, and will have to rely upon the men now playing with the team.

Yale undoubtedly very weak this year, and even their coachers unite in saying their chances for the pennant are very slim. Sew York Star. As between Princeton and Harvard, the former seems to be a favorite. This is due, perhaps, to the fact that little or noth ing is known about the Crimson men. Thev have been working quietly without the usual Harvard bluster, and Captain Cumnock said to have worked wonders with the new team.

It is Acknowledged by all who have seen them play that their line is very strong, Sew York Star. The record made by Jack in the second heat of the race at Lexington gives him the honor of being the fastest trotter ever bred in Michigan, Belle F. 2:15. '4, being the fastest up to that date, and it is also the second fastest made by a gelding in a ra. this year.
