THE LOCAL PRIZE WINNERS. Says He Has Not Tried to Secure Atlantic Club Belies. To the Editor of Brooklyn Eagle: Dear ir In your last Sunday's iaaue you mention In an article about old base ball retlcs of the Atlantic Club that during the past few daya ev ral Hurv Ivors of that' famous club, led by your humble servant, have made an effort to secure for presentation to the Brooklyn Inotitute of Arts and Sciences the case containing the base balls won by the team several years apo. .1 wish to state that you have been misinformed, as I have made no effort the past few. days, or In fact for three years or more, when I met Mr.

Charles Johnson and suKsested to him that "he present the caue and balls to the Institute and get all the credit for bo doing. I have never heard anything regarding the matter from him since. How tne cane 'ever landed where It is I know not. I have never had any conversation with the proprietor of the place where it isnow on exhibition to lila giving It ut. etc.

The case was really the property of the old Atlantic Club, a It was presented to them when their team consisted of Boerum. catcher; M. O'Brien, pitcher: Price, first bate: Oliver, second base; fimith. third base; Pcarce, short stop P. Brlen, left field Mc Mahon.

Moat of the, balls in the case wore won by the older organization. A large number won by the later tcamo were never placed in the case, as mere games were played and they were used In practice games. I Rlncercly hope Mr. Johnson and hlf friends will try and place the case in the Institute or some other nromlnent place of the kind. 1 am positive it will please many an "old Atlantic rooter" and the old members that are still In the "swim." They won Id undoubtedly let Mr.

Charlep Johnson Co. have all the praise, for doing such a good turn. Hcspectfully. J.VO, C. Brooklyn.

the Atlantic Cat Club, organized. The president of the new club is Colonel V. Mann of While New York can lay claim to being the home of more crack oarsmen, probably, than any other city in the world, yet, for many years, the honor of the amateur sculling championship of America had gone elsewhere. It remained for Constance Sutton Titus, the sturdy young oarsman of the Union Boat Club, to bring the blue ribbon of the Water course to this city. Titus is a' Southerner, by birth, coming from a little town, called Plaqucraine Parish, in southern Louisiana.

He was born in 1S73, and began to practice rowing in shell boat in the spring of 181)5, when he was nearly 22 years of age. At that time he was employed in a bank, fn New Orleans, and, as rowing is a very popular sport in the Crescent City, he had taken it up, largely for the sake of the exercise, which it afforded. Titus had, even then, a remarkable physical development, and took so naturally and enthusiastically to the sport that he developed a creditable ability in watermanship. He became a member of the West End Rowing Club, and, on June 17, 1895, only a few weeks after he had seriously turned his attention to sculling, he won a heat in a junior gig race. The club was one of the crack organizations of the South and numbered among its membership several noted oarsmen.

Hence, when Titus won the senior championship of tne club, on June 6, 1896, defeating such men as W. B. Vail and Jim Swan, he began to be heard of outside of his own immediate circle of aquatic athletes. A fortnight later, Titus increased his reputation, as a skilled oarsman, by winning an open gig race, at one and one half miles, with, ridiculous ease, in 11 minutes 4 seconds. In CLARENCE W.

They will occupy a special train with the New York delegation, which will number about seventy five. Excellent arrangements have been made for the welfare of the party during the trip of twelve hours.

A Pullman car has been placed at its disposal, and the commissary department is complete and in splendid bands. Donations have been received from a number of the local alley owners, and, in addition, a stop will be made at Syracuse for dinner. Much of the campaign of Charles Ebbets for president of the American Bowling Congress has been looked after here. The finishing touches will be put on during the run to Buffalo. A lot of campaign literature has prepared, beside suitable badges for the Greater New York delegates, while a new constitution, which omits the objectionable features of that to be presented by tho Western people, has been prepared in proper form for presentation.

The campaigners are confident of victory. The more conservative ones, however, look for a hot fight with the supporters of Frank Pasdaloup, the Chicago candidate for president. The Brooklyn party is made up as follows: It. S. Bannister, YV.

However, the material in sight now is better than usual and there is enough of it to make the contest tor every seat an earnest one.

Mitchell, No. 3, and Waterman, bow. Four are still in college. They are Captain Kunzig, No. Johnson, '03 M.

No. Bogue, '03, No. and Hooker, '02, No. 2. These form a strong nucleus.

Beside these men, who have just been named, Sargent, Laws and Lincoln of the substitutes are available and are good men. The winning freshman eight of 11)01 was made up of unusually fine oarsmen, big and powerful, and these, too, will be out for places in the boat. The problem, as it appears now, will be the development of a stroke to take the place of Cameron, who filled it so well for two years. Bogue, '03; Sargent, '03; Cross, '04, and Adams, '04, are the prominent men, and on one of these four the honor will probably fall. Bogue has had more experience than the others and 13 of good weight, but he has too many faults at present in body work to make, a satisfactory stroke.

These faults may possibly be smoothed out in the season's training. If Adams had more weight he would have a pretty clear title to the place, for he is an apt and skillful oarsman, with the right kind of heart and head. His light weight will be a serious handicap, however. Cross and Sargent have both shown themselves capable of good work.

The difficulty was that, after you had selected a caddie, you found, to your disappointment, that he was either impudent or lazy or lost enough balls to pay for a quarter's dues in the club. So a neat little slip has been prepared to keep ab on the caddie and each member is supposed to turn it in to the caddie master at the conclusion of the game. On the slip are printed the words. "First Class," "Satisfactory," "Slow," "Ignorant," "Impudent" and "Bulls Lost." It.

All that is necessary is to place a mark on the check opposite the words "Impudent" and "IgnoranL" and your revenge Is complete, as the offending caddie will be promptly discharged by the cuddle master and will not be allowed on the links again during the season.
