IN THREE ROUNDS.
Another Brutal slugging Match Unin-
terrnpted by the Police.

tcrrupted by the BOltccs
A spirited glove fight took place on the
Theator Comique stage Saturday night be-
tween George w. Phillips aud Sam johnson,
both colored. Tho contest was to determine
the championship of tho district. After
three rounds had been fought Phillips was
declared winner and the champion Of WASH
ington. The battle was witnessed by full
audience, including many local sports"
Du ring the rounds the spirits of the gallery
indulgod in sundry exclamations, such as
Slug him behind the ear, Johnsin," "Now's
yer time Phillups," "Wax him under the
jaw" Bang him lively" &c. Besides such
remarks as these and few drunken yells
from below no disorder occurred.
Phillips, the winner is larger man than
johnson and of darker hue. He is very
muscular and "scienced" His friends claim
that he has fought twelve battles and won
every one Of them.
johnson is rather short and Of copper
color. His frame is well knit and muscular.
lie has fought several battles, including one
with Kelly a few weeks ago. In the latter
he was knocked sonseless twice.
The first round of Saturdays fight opened
with considerable leg gymnastics and long
range sparring. johnson got in the first
solid blow on Phillips face. This appeared
to anger the latter, and he closed in and
dealt his adversary several "stingers' about
sparring, time was called and the men retired
to their corners.
In the second round Phillips led off and
did some heavy slugging. Johnson responded
vaguely, and while trying to get in killing
"stunner" on Phillips received sledgo ham,
mer blow on the jaw, which caused him to
drop on his hands and feet in a dazed con-
dition. Phillips stood over him ready to ad-
minister another sumner when ho rose.
johnson however, eluded his antagonist and
quickly regained his feet, by a lodging move-
ment. Before he had fully recovered Philips
was ON him again and struck the little man o
series of blows which sent him behind the
scenes like cannon ball.
The third round was opened by johnson,
who spared around Phillips after the fash
ion of little bantam rooster fighting large
bird. Phillips powerful blows had appar-
emily taught him wisdom, and he was very
shy. Finally Phillips forced the fighting by
closing. The result was that johnson was
"downed" several times amidst great APP
plause. Johnson managed to get in ono or
two light face blows. The round ended by
Phillips knocking johnson behind the
wings The referee then came forward and
announced that Phillips was the winner.
There is some talk of Phillips challenging
Kelly, the lightweight champion Of New
York city.

ROASTED CAT MEAT.

A Station-House Cat Hunts n Warm Bed
and Finds One.
William Hawkins, the colored jan itor of
frightened yesterday morning by something
that occurred in the boiler room under the
station. He went down into the boiler room
to shake down the ashes in the furnace.
They had not been disturbed for several
hours. The first thing Hawkins did was to
close the iron door of the ash box under the
furnace. lie then took the long iron rod and
began to rake the ashes down into the tightly
closed ash box, which is similar in some re-
respects to an oven. While engaged at this
task he was startled by series of unearthly
groans and yells, proceeding apparently from
the furnace. After a moments hesitation he
opened tho ash box door. Instantaneously a
ball of flame, followed by a dense cloud of
smoke and ashes, shot out from the box into
the semi darkness of the cellar and fell on the
floor with q thud.
With standing hair and eyes as large as
saucers, Hawkins dropped the rod and rushed
upstairs to the patrol room, which he entered
with the remark:
Great heavens, Mr.. Henry. I've seen
it! Go down stairs quick! 1t is either q
ghost or the devil"
Mr. Henry went down and after lighting
the gas, looked upon the floor. There lay
"rom," the old station house cat, in half
roasted condition. He had crawled into the
box to keep warm and Hawkins had unknow-
ingly closed him in the prison and precipi-
him. Tom" had inhabited the station house
for nearly five years, and the officers of the
eighth precinct were very much attached to
him.

A White Bud TranspIanted.

Death has once again visited Washington
barracks, tho headquarters of the I'd United
States artillery, and has snatched from the
loving embrace of her parents, First Lieut..
and Mrs. Grimes, their beloved little daugh-
ter Helen, aged 2 years and 10 months, who
departed this life on Saturday night, the
twelfth instant. Like the clear luster of the
midday sun, which spreads its bright rays to all,
so did the luster Of this little one shed its bright
rays around its family circle and friends.
Idolized by her parents, beloved and dear to
all who knew her. it is but small wonder that
her death has caused universal grief
throughout this post. Lieut. and Mrs. Grimes
have the sincere sympathy of all. and
although little Helen has left us she will
never be forgotten. 1t is on such sorrowful
occasion as this that the words of the blessed
Master comes like o bright light, forcing its
way through the darkest cloud saying
suffer little children to come unto me and
forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom
of heaven"
