Great Enthusiasm at Sports in Maiden Opera House. MADDEN. April lft-The third annual meet of rue suburban interscholastic A. A. was held this evening, in the Maiden opera Medford.

Maiden, Mel- 3 rose and Winchester were the contest ing schools, and the championship was won by one point by the Medford bltf.i school boys, who also won the two previous meets.

The company also asks to have authority in connection with the route under consideration to have the structure of sufficient strength to haul steam cars over it.

One of the most important things to be considered in connection with this, tho latest rapid transit movement, is the overhead trolleys. In the present charter of the eievated railway company no provision Is made for caring for the poles and wires of the overhead rysta-m of the West End. and It Is absolutely impossible to build an elevated railway unless some suitable provision Is made for these wires. This obstacle, the company thinks, may be remedied by the present legislature, and unless it Is remedied the whole matter will have to he postponed for another year at least. The petition of the company Is now in the hands of the governor, and his ac THREE OF FOUR EVENTS.

NEW YORK. April 10 The Boston leagiie team made a short call at Princeton this afternoon on Ha way home from the south and polished off the college boys quite handily. Princeton put up a good, hustling lame, but found the visitors In both batting and fielding form and anxious to try out their new plays on some strong team. Jack Ryan did the catching, and bandied Mains, Stivetts and Sullivan in a masterly manner. His throwing and bitting wa also fine Mains started to pitch, and Ward reached first on a alow grounder that Collins fumbled, a surprise party for bis fellow players.

Easton sacrificed. Altman hit a long high one that Jimmy Bannon waltzed after and lost. The batsman reached third and Ward had scored by the time Bannon got the kinks out of his back. Kelley struck out. Bradley and Smith followed with fine singles and the students were in a happy frame of mind until "Gentle Willie" fanned the third man.

Long scored for Boston on a base on balls, a wild pitch by Altman. who pitched the first five innings, and Duffy's fine single. Sharp folding by Long and Tucker prevented scoring in the next two in Dings. Boston scored two in the fourth on a base on balls, Lowe's double and Duffy's single. Stivetts was in fine fettle when he relieved Mains In the fourth.

Sutter drew a base on balls and went to second on a sacrifice by Gunster. Titus and Ward were easy for happy Jack. Boston scored three runs in their half. every man going to the bat. Collins drew a base on balls, Ryan Rota scratch tingle and Stivetts sacrificed them up a base.

Hamilton was cleverly thrown out by Gunster. Long drew a base on balls. Lowe and Duffy put in sharp sin gles. Then Bannon put up a high one lor Butter. Stivetts tried a new delivery, after the style of Hotter, and put the next six men out on very weak grounders.

Ryan scored in the fifth on a double and Stivett's single. Sullivan came in for the last three innings, and as usual was careless. Singles by Easton and Smith and Altman's double gave the home team two earned runs in the eighth. Joy went in to pitch for the home team in the sixth and made considerable fun for the crowd with his "monkey" delivery. It was so funny that Boston want out in order, but the new man was tip against it good and hard, for in the teventh the Bostons got six men serosa th plate on singles by Sullivan, Ham-, titan, Lowe, DulTy.

a fumble by Smith and Bannon's double. T5 features of the game were the (hiding and hitting of Lowe and Duffy. the catching of Ryan and the fielding of Collins. For the college, Easton in left field mads two beautiful running catches. Smith played well at second, and Bradley, Smith and Altman hit the ball hard.

Titus has a poor style in going after blffh balls and found Altman a hard Baa to hold. The Bostons will go to Bridgeport tonight so that practice can be taken in the morning on a grass diamond. A rams will be played in the afternoon with Jim O'Ronrke's team. Manager Selee will send Terney. Dolan, Yerrick and Harrington home from Bridgeport to take part in the game Monday at the coum ena grounds.

The 88 g've the team not only a union station, as the construction of the new station, if authorized, would undoubtedly be made to conform more or less to an elevated road, if it should be built. The company Is also desirous of securing other amendments to Its charter, among which is a provision making certain the kind of system which may be adopted, it being uncertain under the present act what system can be used. Tho proposed system would undoubtedly bo operated by electricity. The whole matter, as stated, is in the hands of well-known people of ample responsibility, who are able to carry to a successful conclusion anything of hi3 nature which they may undertake.

The company's application to the governor to Fend a special message to the legislature is made in order that this whole matter may be considered by the legislature, and If the amendments desired are found to be for the best Interests of the city that appropriate legislation should be had in regard to them before it becomes too late. The proposed route through Tremont st would begin at the old route on AMNESTY ASSOCIATIONS. Steps Taken to Place Boston in Its Proper Place in the Front Rank in Agitation for Prisoners Liberation. The first steps were taken last evening toward putting Boston in Its proper place, at the head of the movement for ammsty which is now being organized throughout the country. Mr James F.

Egan, the delegate sent out by the amnesty association of Ireland and Great Britain to Inaugurate the movement for the release of the prisoners and the support of their families, niet a number of gentlemen interested in the movement, many of them representing societies with a considerable number of members, at the United States hotel yesterday afternoon. Mr Kgan had solicited their advice and. assistance as to the best means of making the movement in Boston a success. Amongst those who attended were Mr James Jeffrey Roche, Hon Thomas Rily, P. J.

Flatley. Thomas 11. Devlin, Mr John J. Teevans. M.

J. Jordan, Denis M. Calnan, Daniel F. Mahoney. J.

L. McCarthy, James Lynn, Terence Cavanagh. Edmund Cussen, P. F. Gorm-ley, John Merrill, Patrick A.

Foley, Cornelius J. O'Leary. John O'Callaghan and Michael F. Harding. On motion of Mr James Jeffrey Roche the meeting organized with Mr P.

J. Flatley ns chairman and John O'Calla- Ban as secretary. Mr Jbgan, tho delegate from thn old country, then explained to those present me ooject ot ms mission to America, stating that it was the hope of the amnesty ascociatiort in Ireland and Great Britain that their countrymen here would aid them in their efforts to secure the release of the political Drisoners still confined ln English prisons. The support of their families was also an object of prime necessity, and the aid which could be given by this coun try was very much needed. Mr Kgan said there was another way in which the people who sympathize with the amnesty cause ln America could do great good, and that was by arousing the spirit 0 the people on this side to the injustice, and in fact the inhuman treatment which was being meted out to the prisoners, many of whom were American citizens.

He said that the movement was not in any sense a party one; that his sole object was to do his best for the prison ers, and he asked the support or their countryman In America on that ground and no other. Men 'may differ as much as they wish on other but he believed that on the Question or am nesty they ought to be willing to stand on a common platform. wnen Kgan naa conciuaea Terence Cavanagh moved that It was the sense of the meeting that a public meeting in the interest of the cause of amnesty should be held in Boston, and the suggestion was enthusiastically ap proved. After soma discussion. In which Mr Thomas Rilev, Mr James Jeffrey Roche, Mr John J.

Teevans and others offered suggestions, it was decided to appoint a committee of seven to act with the chairman and secretary In taking the pre liminary steps toward the holding or a public meeting. A committee of two. consisting of Messrs John and P. A. Foley, were appointed to bring In a list of those who are to serve as the committee.

The following names were reported, and th" gentlemen were unanimously selected: Messrs M. J. Jordan, P. A. Foley, I).

F. Mahoney, John J. Teevens. McCarthy, Thomas II. Devlin and John Merrill.

The serretary was empowered to drart a circular which will be sent to all organizations friendly to the cause of am-neHty, or who have ln any way.been the Irish cause, in Boston and its immediate vicinity, and also to prominent Individuals who are in favor of the release of the prisoners and the furtherance of the amnesty movement, asking them to send representatives to a meeting to te ncio in Well Memorial building. The circular Is to be sdgncd by Mr Egan as the delegate of the amnesty association in Ireland, and by the chairman find secretary of the meeting, ami will invite till who favor amnesty to be "K.i, to be held on Friday evening next will be representative of rr Triwh organization in Boston, and at that meeting steps will be taken 01 the holding of a demonstration in Bos ton at an early date, which will put be what the feeling of Bos ton is on the question of the amnesty of the political prifconei K.

PORTLAND, Me, April 10 There is division in the church of the Emman uel, growing out. It Is alleged, of the de- termination of the pastor. Rev G.

Edwin not to allow members of se- I cret orders to retain church member- I ship, and not to preach himself ln a hall occupied in part by a recret order. ihe church is connected with the Christian Alliance movement, of which Rev Dr A. B. Simpson of New York is the head, and organized by a Rev SS. Ruscomb.

who was then connected with Dr Simpson's work, and who later died one of the missionaries of the Al liance. He made an antl secret society- clause a part of the original articles of agreement, but under the pastorate of Rev Mr Campbell, who succeeded him. this was allowed to become a dead let ter, and members of the orders were admitted to membership, and the hall ln which the church met was sub leased two evenings ln a week to the local branches of the A.

P. A. councils should be rescinded, but the trustees refused and he left the large hall where the society had so long worshiped, and hired and Jitted up a small room, where he now Breaches. The membership of the church Is said to be now wholly connned to women, and a few men who are not connected with any one of the secret orders. Both sides claim to be loyal to the teachings of Dr Simpson, and he will probably be called upon to settle the trouble now threatening to destroy the church Itself.

The company also proposes, if granted authority to construct a line, to connect the new southern union station with the northern union station, proceeding by way of Atlantic av, Commercial st and Causeway st.

The Infield on the varsity nine is lay- ln(f together well. The men have had a week's time to get in their team work. Little Vincent at third will make a good infielder If he continues to improve as he has done. His batting, too. has come up since last year.

"Jimmy" Dean Is nutting life into the work of his nine. lie may not succeed in getting out a winning team, but he will try very narf. and he sure to turn out a nine far superior to last year s. He is greatly hampered just now by the lack of efficient coaching. Bond does not seem to be able to do tho work alone, and Jack Highlands helped the men very much yesterday.

wrenn at shortstoo is putting up a good, steady game. The outfield is also very strong so far. as Is shown by the fact that Burgess of Inst year's nine has been crowded out. Haughton in right field Is a strong batter and good fielder. covering his territory well.

The last of the series of lectures given under the auspices of the Harvard memorial society was given ln Sanders theater, Cambridge, last night. The speaker of the evening was Judge Robert Grant 73, who spoke on "Harvard tn the Seventies" ln a charming reminiscent way and disclosed his Interesting personality. "The period of 1870 to 1880 was marked with many reforms from which has emerged the Harvard of today. The student of the 70s had neither the inspiration of Emerson nor the Inspiration of the war. "I was examined for Harvard In 69.

took my degree in 73, the Ph. D. degree In 7fi, and studied law until 79. so tlat I was at Harvard through the entire period of the seventies. "In those days we had no Hemenway, Grays had Just been built, Massachusetts was still a dormitory, and Hoi-worthy whs the envy of all.

with its single study room, two bedrooms and a coal closet. My room was Holworthy 9, and I was a proctor's freshman, which meant practically his servant. "I spent $1000 for each of my llrst two years, and not more than S1300 for my other two years. Some spent more, but hardly any one spent more than $2000. No one kept a horse In those days and we saw very little extravagance.

"My clans was the first to experience the elective system. From year to year new courses were added, culminating in the appointment of a Chinese professor, the unfortunate outcome of which you are all acquainted with. "The habit in regard to exercise changed In my day. in my sophomore year I helped to revive football. We played on a little ground where the scientific school now stands.

We then went to the common, from which we were soon expelled. We played with a little round black rubber ball. We were Invited to an intercollegiate association in 1873, but refused because their rules were not our rules. "In 1875 we had our first game of football at Hampden park, Springfield. Fifteen men played on a side.

Three half-hour halves were played, and Harvard won; Yale did not score. NO VOTING CONTESTS. Second Night cf the "Colonial Carnival" in Chelsea Pythian Rink. There was a big gathering in Pythian rink, Chelsea, last evening, the second of the "Colonial carnival" in aid of the Frost hospital. Sales are being made which are very satisfactory to the managers.

They are convinced that a fair is far more successful and certainly more satisfactory when voting contests and other similar features are left out. Such a policy has been rigidly enforced in this one. The special entertainment last evening was a series of allegorical tableaux on colonial history by these young women: M'ss Cora Jordan, Miss Florence Strahan, Miss Alice Strahan. Miss Carrie Paine, Miss Helen Hurd, Miss Mora Rich. Miss Lillian Ruggles, Miss Lottie Patterson, Miss Emily Smith, Mabel Flint, Miss Nana Cole.

Miss Mabel Pinkham, Miss Etta Parsons, Miss Susie Bigelow, Miss Annie Dunbar, Miss Alice CarsotvMiss Charlotte Hitchcock, Miss Jennie Barnes..
