WEEKLY BAZOO,
yESTIGES OF BARBARISM.

Among the evidences Of retarded
ssvihxation in this age of onward
zsarch, in this country. may be classed
the prize-fght, the dog-fght and the
SICK fight. These institutions origi
as,ed in what may be called the mod
e;D dark age. Along with the bruta'
Staging match, the dog fight and tn,
rock fight have kept their places fol
many years, and time does not seem
10 have greatly lessened the number
Of votaries who make a practice OF
attending them. From Bendigo',
time down to the present, prize-fghts
have about held their own. notwith
standing all the laws made for their
suppression. A false idea of courage
endurance and skill runs through the
pugilists' art, and the more brutal and
bloody these contests are, the more
che would-be heroes of the encounter,
are looked upon by the class which
yatvnizes them as men fiji for the al
ministration and respect Of the world
Nsny people have not vet forgotten
che brutality and butchery of tn,
prizefight of only year or two ago,
81 such a matter. in which a man
named Elliot was subjected to such a
punishment: as ought to have sent the
perpetrator of the Outrage to the pen
:sentiary for long term of years
The ribs Of the under dog in tn,
SIGHT were broken in, bis head was
pounded INTO jelly and almost NOR
tai injuries were inflicted upon him,
Nobody ever heard. however of tt
srest and punishment OF the othei
iellev. A few years ago prize-fsLi
occurred in New jersey, of which the
details were too disgusting for perusal
in the public press.
The prize-fght is vestige of thu
sladitoriul combats of old times. The
,fog-fght is only the modified en-
counter between wild beasts
which delighted the benighted
Romans. The cock fight, and
sock-fghters, are no better. The
worst crowds that can lie got TO-
gether in the country attend these ex,
lmbitions II blood and brutality. Pick
pockets and general thieves are the
gentlemen of these parties. The
,thers are worse still. At the Mace
and Coburn fight few years ago the
watch of the Canadian sheriff was
.tolen from him while he was reading
he riot act to the crowd. The twin
to the prize-fisht is the dog
ight and the participants in the two
contests are about on a level.
All these sports. as.they are called,
ught to be effectu,lly suppressed ; |
at this can only be done by law
acked by public sentiment and
Fsnion. So long as people have an
ching curiosity to witness blood shed. |
Nd exhibitions of brutality, just that !
NJ the prize-fsht dog-fight, cock
hit and bull-fyhs, will subsist and
ourish. Their damoralizing effect, |
specially upon young men, is the
cry worst. And the associations
'rmel at dog-pits, rings and cooking
rains are such as any man ought to
e ashamed of.

St. Paul'S Southwest Trunk Line
Road.

After months of snow, followed by
heavier floods than ever witnessed by
the "oldest inhabitants. we are glad
to announce that the St. Paul & Oma-
ha Short Line of the c., St. p, M. &
o., is again ready to take care of all
through freight and passenger business
committed to it's care. The Blue Earth,
Woodstock, and Sioux Falls branches
of the c., St. p, NJ. 4 O. Line are also
ready for business. Unlike most other
companies, the management Of the c.,
st. p. NJ. & 0. Line during the season
of the snow blockade kept persistently
ut work. Mountains of snow were Ell.
countered and overcome, and thou
sands upon thousands Of dollars were
expended in trying to keep the inhabi-
tants on the line of their western di-
vision and branches in communication
with the outer world, and now that the
line is permanently opened a large and
prosperous business is looked for.
Through sleeping cars over this line
will he run, as heretofore, between st..
Paul and Council Bluffs via Sioux City,
connecting at Council Bluffs with first
class lines of roads for Kansas City,
Denver, San Francisco, and all points
in Kansas, Texas, Arizona, Colorado
and California.-St. Paul Globe.

cents on the dollar, will say to the

the truth Of either, and. to one Of the
signers Of his filthy article will say,

better than to pay nothing, which /

had been the intention of some of the
commissioners to erect a building and
remove number of the paupers de-
pendent on the county on to the farm,
but Mr.. Wagner, the chairman of the
board, informs us that the idea has
been banished from the minds of the
commissioners. The question of re-
locating the Iberia bridge also came
up for consideration, and we learn
that number of persons were pres
ent in the interest of both locations,
but no final action was taken. We are
informed that those in favor Of hav.
ing the bridge built at the Larabee
crossing became quite boisterous, end
persisted that the action of the COM
missioners locating the bridge at that
point should be final. One of the par
ties interested even threatened Com.
missioner Wagner, last Saturday, "to
never buy cents worth of furniture
from him. if he voted to e.locate the
bridge at Iberia. The commissioners
will not be bulldozed, and they will
next Friday vote to have the bridge
built wherever, in their judgement, il
will benefit the largest number of peo
pie.

Quite difficult surgical operation
was performed by DR.. Berry, assisted
by his student DR.. Wakefield, last Sat.
urday. It consisted of the removal of
large libroid tumor from Mrs. Hen.
schen, wife of Henry Henschen, Of this
city. Upon external examination the
tumor seemed to be a simple one, and
easy Of removal, but upon cutting
down upon it it was found to be large
fibroid tumor of very dense structure,
and closely adhered to the spine Of the
scapula, and extending up to the outer
border of the trapizius muscle, to
which it was firmly attached, and ex-
tending deep into the tissues in the
clavicular region, making the opera
ton very tedious and difficult, and at
tended with considerable danger to the
patient on account of the important
organs SO closely surrounding the t,-
NOR.
The operation was successfully per-
formed and up to the present date the
lady is doing as we'll as could be ex.
Dected.
