PITTsBURe, Oct. 23.-Two prlze-Gghts
took place at late hour last night In Lin
den Grove, Oakland, the extreme darkness
Of the night being relieved by torches. The
first fight was between John Davis, of this
city, and George Taylor, of Oakland, for
500. Three rounds were fought, when Tay-
lor was declared the winner. Both men
were badly used up. Thomas Smith and
John Hill then stepped into the ring and
proceeded to slug each other numerically
and regardless of science. In the fifth round
Hill delivered several telling blows on his OPP
ponent's body and finally landed one back Of
his ear, knocking him out. When the sixth
round was called Smith failed to respond
and the fight was decided In favor of Hill.
About 100 persons witnessed the fight.

Lamotte streets, aud stole various articles

Hawkins and some OF his brother "model"
ipcompetents went on a goose chase to an
unoccupied barn in the vicinity with the ex-
pectation of finding the thieves there with
their booty. OF course they were not ac-
commodating enough to remain until the
Chief came up.

The X ellOgg Case Again In Court.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-This morn
ing, in the Criminal Court, Judge
Wylie, the arguments ON the motion to
quash the indictment in the case of eX-
Senator Kellogg, indicted for ille-
gally receiving money while a Govern
ment officer, was begun. Mr.. Shell
abarger presented printed brief, and
proceeded with the argument to show
that the Indictment is bad. The oh
iections made were based principally
upon the failure of the Indictment to
state that the defendant " received or
agreed to receive compensation for pro-
curing or aiding to procure any con-
tract from the government or from any
officer of the United States for any per-
son.
According to the Indictment the
contract was ready in existence at the
date of the alleged fraud, and this was
held to be Il fatal defect, if the action
was to be brought under Section 1881,
Revised Statutes II was also held
hat the Indictment failed to fall within
the provisions of Section 1882, because
it did not allege that the defendant
either rendered service in regard to the
contract or agreed SO TO do, and did not
state the manner in which the service
was rendered.
Mr.. Shellabarger was followed in
argument by Messrs. MerriCk, Kcr and
Wilson.
Judge Wylie said he would examine
the papers and give decision on Mon.
day next.

RccOVertuG.

A gentleman who recently met the
Hon. VIM. ID. Kelley in London writes
to the Tribune rhe friends OF Judge
Kelley will be glad to learn that he is
recovering, though slowly, from the Sc
rious operation Of last May. He is re-
gaining his strength and axes a good
deal of outdoor txersise, though he is
unable to walk very far.
"In discussing the prospects of the
next Congress his accustomed enthusi-
asm returned, and he said emphatically
that if he was spared he would be in his
seat the day Congress opened and take
his usual part in all debates on tariff
questions. He believed the new tariff
law was upon the whole a wise one, and
any attempts on the part of the Demo-
Gratis to cripple American industry by
a still further reduction would meet the
most determined opposition of the mi
nority. Judge Kelley has his wife and
family with him in London, and they
will not return home before October.
He is greatly in need of perfect quiet
and rest, though much better than one
might expect after the phJ Jsical suffer
ings he has undergone.

Burglary.

The house of Joseph Mcbride, No. $40
Harrison street, was entered through
the cellar window by rogues, last night,
and two overcoats, two sack coats, two
pair of shoes, two gossamers, shawl,
and several other articles, valued at
some $50, were carried off. AS the par
ties did not visit the chambers in the
second story it is supposed that they
were frightened off before they had
fully completed their intended tour OF
inspection. Mr.. Mcbride visited the
police headquarters this morning and
made known his loss, but rs he had no
clue to the rogues, there is little hope OF
recovering his property.

Peter Herdic's New Scheme.

Peter Herdic has madea proposition
to the people Of Lock Haven to make
that town the largest lumber centre in
Pennsylvania. He proposes to the citi-
zens that they furnish the capital to ex-
tend and improve the lumber booms OF
that place He then proposed to the
Pennsylvania railroad company that it
make him sole manager Of the boom,
and he would guaran'ee immense reve-
nue to the railroad company and in
creased business to Lock Haven. Thus
far the citizens have not shown much
inclination to engage in Mr.. Herdic's
scheme of development.

TIRED OF LIFE.
A Man Attempts 10 Throw Himself
Under u Freight Train.

Yesterday afternoon officer NiCkers
noticed il man near the depot consider
ably under the influence of liquor. The
officer kept his eye on him, but just as
freight train was approaching he ran
ont and threw himself across the track
in front OF it. The officer WAS too far
OFF to reach him, and citizen who was
close 70 the track, rushed out and barely
dragged him from his perilous position
when the train Numbered past. Officer
Vickers then took him in custody, and
he said that he intended to end his life
as he was stranger in a strange place
without dollar.
He told the officer that had squan-
dered fortune of $50, 900, and although
he had been prevented putting an end
to himself now, he intended to do so at
the first opportunity. 1t was thought
best to take him to the hall, and he was
locked up for the night, and this morn
ing when he was placed in the dock he
presented pitiable spectacle.
The few clothes that he wore were in
rags, and he was minus II shirt, but
his answers to the Judge showed that
he was a man who had seen better days.
He gave his name as Thomas Carpen-
ter and said that he had been SOL
dier, and was now on his way from
New York to Washington to try and
obtain admission to the Soldiers
Home.
He disclailned all intentions of com
mittlng suicide, and said he had thrown
himself in front of the train on account
of u companion bantering him, and
telling him that he was afraid to do So
He complained of havinga sore leg,
the result of a wound he received dur
ing the war. Although he was so de-
based, he seemed to feel his position
keenly, and said it was the first time he
had ever been arrested in his life. He
begged to be let OIL, and promised to
leave the town within an hour if he
was released, but the Judge thinking it
better to hold him for the present, i'm
posed fine of 70 cents and costs.

Choice Of Life Work.

Youths who rush into this or thai
sphere of life simply because of the i'm
ducements it holds out, without testing
their own powers or feeling any love for
the work itself, need never hope for ex'
cellence or success. They may or may
not win some of the results for which
they pine but they never can rise to
eIninence in the pursuit itself, and are
far more likely to sink below the aver
age. On the otlier hand, those who, in
deciding their future course, are fortu-
nate enough to discover where their
memories are strongest and clearest and
their real interest is most firmly center.
ed, and wise enough to choose their life
work accordingly, have every reason to
hope for fair measure of success OF
the best and most enduring kind.

Avenging q DlshOnOred Bang hter

Another bloody tragedy, Wherein a
girls honor is the primary cause, was
enacted in Wood County, ten miles
East of Parkersburg, W. Va, Saturday
night John K. Coe, aged IS years, and
his son Walter, q years of age, are the
perpetrators of the deed. Calvin Will
lian.s, the victim of the tragedy, is a
young man, who was well thought of
in the community, as were also the
Goes. Williams was engaged to Goes
daughter, and the father and son al
lege should have married her to save
trouble. They met Williams near his
residence, when quarrel ensued, and
the father of the girl shot and instantly
killed Williams.

The Old Ticket.

Since the talk about the "old ticket
began :he strength of the Mcdonald
boom in Indiana has visibly waned.
The New Albany Ledger, one Of the most
influential Democratic papers in the
State, maintains that Mcdonald could
not carry the Stale if nominated. 1t
says that the Democrats must have the
aid of the Greenbackers and the protec-
tion element in their own party if they
expect to get the electoral vote of Indi-
ana and that Med mad is not popular
with either of these factions. The clos
ing words of the Ledger on the outlook
show that it has an intelligent grasp of
the situation: "'rhe Republicans are
rapidly healing their differences From
the present outlook they will enter the
next campaign united party. In that
case it will be necessary for the Democ-
racy to poll their full vote TO insure sue
cess. -

QUICKsTEP DEMORALIzED.
Too Much Whisky said 70 be the
cause Of MOnday's defeat.

The Quickstep base ball club Of this
city left yesterday morning for Trenton,
N. j., and endeavored to play ball in
the afternoon with the Trenton team
but being weak from Sundays sdebauch
they were unable to cope with their
opponents and were badly beaten.
The particulars of the game could not
he ascertained, but 1t is stated under
good authority that several members OF
the club, feeling 80 good over last week 5
victories, couldn't stand prosperity and
on Sunday left fhe city on some Of the
excursions and drank heavily ; in con.
sequence they were not fit for active
service yesterday. 1t has been stated
that fine was imposed upon those who
violated the rules of the club, AMI it is
to be hoped that those who repeatedly
violate the rules will be fined by mana
ger McHugh until the disgraceful prac-
tice is broken up.
step is the strongest team in the Inter
State, and if they are properly d!sci
pline,l they will come out of the race
crowded with laurels, but if they are
allowed to keep up the practice of last
Sunday they had better disband. The
score yesterday was:
Trenton, 4 0 0 0 0 2 0 l o.
Quickstep, 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 IL
NOTES.
The Ottawa defeated the Violets on
Saturday by score of 10 to II. The
feature of the game was the brilliant
catching of Haddock for the Violets, he
only having IL errors.
The Expert defeated the Delaware
Pioneers by a score of 16 ..
A game was played in Harrisburg
yesterday between the Lancaster and
Harrisburg clubs, the latter winning by
score Of 40 to q.
The disbandment of the Merritt Club
leaves Harrisburg leading for the Inter
State championship; Anthracite, of
Pottsville, second Trenton and Brook
.yn tied for third place, and The Quick
step, of Wilmington, and Active, of
Reading, bringing up the rear. Harris
burg has lead Of three or four games
over its nearest adversary, but the 9TH
er clubs are separated by only one or
two games each; so the race for first
place will be exciting.
Every player of the Merritt Club has
now been signed by managers of other
clubs. Barnie, of the Baltimore Club,
carried his point, and gathered in En-
sile, Sweeney and Gardner, and Fen
nelly finally succumbed to Manager
Taylor's offers and joined the Brooklyn
team. This makes six Merritt players
now with the Brooklyn. Probably nearly
as many of the old Brooklyn club will
be released. All of the Merritt players
have bettered themselves pecuniarily,
the aggregate of their salaries now
reaching 81, ,933per month, against 81 ,2l5
payroll of the Merritt Club.
