delighted to find that Cleopatra was the
mother OF a lot OF the prsttiest little

OF shavings. and in less than q minute
killed every one OF the kittens and then
dashed out again before the revsnging
brooms, bootjacks and pickle jars could
reach and demolish him,
Great was the grief aud CONSERVATION
OF the little children gathered around the
nest Of Cleopatra. and they cried as
though their little hearts would break.
Never mind. Sammy" said little

through her tears. Don't 90 cwy no

which took place at CooPsr's Hall last

and between 8 and Q o'clock met on G
street. below Taylsr, where they had a
jawing match. Friends intoriersd and
separated the two. They went up the
street sinely and above Taylor came to-
gether and commenced q fight without q
word. II was q fair and square stand
up and knock down. and % . ring Of
a hundred or two took the place Of ropes.
How long they fought is uncertain. One
man said 90 minutes, another five min.
utes; but IL IL certain that they kept at
ii till one cried enough, and that was
just as a police whistle blew. Lockers.
on say that Sullivan, who was worsted
in the walking match, got the best Of
the fight. and that his opponent was
badly beaten. The two separated as
quickly as they came together. 30 as to
dodge the police. One was traced BY
blood up through Marye's building to B
street. the other shot down Taylor street
aud disappeared.
