CERT OF PUBLIC LIBRARY OF KEN
TUcKY-A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.-The
Trustees of the Public Library of Ken
lucky and the management of the Gift
Concert announce the postponement of
the Fourth Gift Concert until Tuesday,
the 31st of March next. The public
will readily understand thecauses which
have made the postponement necessary.
The financial panic, which has for the
last two months paralyzed the business
of every section of this country and
Europe, has prevented thousands from
investing ia tickets. The epidemics
pervading almost the entire South have
cut off a large and available market.
And, too. the public, judging from the
effect of these causes, have expected
postponement, and have declined to in
vest without a more positive assurance
of the drawing taking place on a fixed
day. All interested desire full draw
ing, but for the reason inst stated this
could not be had OH the Sd of Decem-
ber, but the short postponement now
announced will secure ii. The man
agement have met with unprecedented
success. The sales of tickets, the pro-
ceeds of which have already been
received, amount to over a million dol
lars, with number of agencies in this
country yet to hear from, and all those
in Europe. Thus the drawing (scaling
the. gifts one-half) could be had now,
but the management deem 1t best to
have O postponement and full draw
ing. This pOstponement assures the
sale of all the tickets and a full draw.
ing. That this determination will meet
with the appreciation of nearly every
one interested is made apparent by the
very numerous letters received from
every section of this country and the
Canadas asking for postponement
This action of the management will
work no detriment to any, but will bt
for the good of all. BY it the fortunate
ticket Folders will receive their gifts il
full, while it will not affect those who
do not draw gifts. In making this an
nouncement the management emphati
cally state that there shall be no fur
ther postponement, and to this end al
agents will be imperatively required t,
close up and transmit their accounts t.
this Office by the 21st of March. THos

John @. Heenan.

John Gable Heenan, the pugilist,
who died the other day of consumption,
in Wyoming territory, where he went
several weeks ago for his health, was
born in West Troy, New York, in 1894,
and in 1s49, when the gold fever was
raging, emigrated with the :" Argonauts''
of that period TO California. He set
tied at the town Of Benicia, and his
pugi1istic exploits among the rough
population there soon gave him the
name, by which his admirers long
knew him, OF the sc sBenicia Boy.
In 1856 his muscles and pugilistie
propensities were 20 fully developed
that, in company with Mr.. James Gu
sick, his trainer, he returned TO New
York in search Of n fight. He spent
the next two years, however, rather
peacefully in the employ of the New
York custom-bouse In 1858 he entered
his first prize battle with John Morris
sey, at Long Point Island, Canada, and
was defeated. The great event Of his
life was the fight with Tom Sayers. in
England, in 1860, for the championship
Of the world. The American hero was
lion among the classes who like
prize fights, during his stay in England,
though he was continually kept moving
on by the police authorities, and was
finally arrested few days previous 70
the day fixed for the fight. The battle
was postponed in consequence, but Hee-
nan was finally released, and the fight
took place. Itresulted very unsatisfas-
toriIy 70 those interested in il. the
crowd interfering and breaking down
the ropes and the referee taking 10
flight In 1861 Heenan challenged any
man in the world 70 fight for s10. 600,
which Jem Mace. Of England, proposed
to aeoePs, but the arrangement was
never perfected. He found Tom King
in 1853, IL England, King defeating
him 20 severely that il was believed he
never recovered his health. He trav.
eIed with shows in England and fhii
country FOR several years after that,
but did not appear in the ring again,
supporting himself by his exhibition
and by 3 gambling-house IN New York.
