a I.uuicrOus prize Fight.

RocKAwAY BEACH, L. l., Sept. IT,
Jimmy Carroll, of Newport, and Dick
Colyer, of Philadelphia, fought with small
gloves to q finish, Queensbury rules, Ia O
sporting resort here this afternoon, in the
presence vf about 60 persons, who paid
$40 each to see the contest. Twenty-Five
rounds were fought in an hour and Al
minutes, the fight being awarded to Oar
roll, who managed to get the last blow.
At the finish they looked like a couple OF
fighting cocks after a hard battle, fioun-
dering around the ring, neither having
strength enough to make q hit. The hight
took place in a ring formed by three sides
of q room. with a rope stretched for the
fourth side. giving the men about 70 feet
of leeway to fight in. The first few
rounds were decidedly interesting, both
men using their hands scientifically, do.
ing little damage to each other, though
| CAROLS strength and his length Of reach
overbalanced Colyer's science. The affair
became monotonous later on. when the
men, badly winded, in many rounds did
little but spar for time. 1t was evident in
the 18th round that Colyer was beaten,
Carroll having got several left handlers on
the formers right jaw and eye, while Col
yer could do little better than get in a few
rather short undercuts on his opponents
chin. In the 18th round, encouraged by
the shouts OF their friends, the men raj
lied aud attempted to do some slugging,
but were too weak to hurt each other. The
finish was ludicrous, when the men, in at
tempting to hit each other. reeled and fell
together, back to back. Carroll, however,
was able to rally, and swinging round dealt
| Colyer q blow on the neck with his left,
which sent him Keeling to the rope. Col
yer failed to come to time, and the referee
awarded the fight and money to Carroll.
Damaging storms I'm Michigan.
DETROIT, Mich, Sept. ia terrific
| windstorm swept over the southeastern
part of Michigan, OF which but meager re-
ports have been received as yet. At How
| ell the storm came from the east n ex-
tended over a large extent of territory.
The hurricane was elk miles wide, coming
from the east. 1t laid low many buildings.
In the eastern part Of that city John
Smiths house was blown down, and his
son Fred, aged 20 years, was crushed to
death, being fiattened by falling timbers.
In several instances barns we're totally
wrecked or blown away, while horses and
cattle were left uniDjured on the site OF
the buildings. Many trees were blown
down. The storm was the soverest ever
suffered at Howell. Flat Rock reports the
storm having divided, going north and
south. But little damage was done in
town. but a hurricane is reported from
south OF hat place. From Adrian comes a
similar report. Houses were damaged,
trees blown down, and fences demolished.
Heavy damage is rumored from the
country round about Adrian, but the wires
are working badly, and a definite report is
not obtainable.

rived in this city this morning in IL
special cars over the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad. in charge of Col. j.. F.
Wade, of the Tenth United States Cavalry,
commanding Company No. IS OF the
Guards. These Indians though not actu-
ally engaged in Geronimo's late campaign
were nevertheless suspected of furnishing
the hostiles with provisions and ammuni-
ton. and the Government thought best to
remove them from their reservation.
| They will proceed from here direct to Fort
Marion, near Jacksonville, Fla. They will
be given a reservation somewhere in that
State. Crowds of people gathered at the
railroad station to see the real live Indians,
and were rewarded by seeing them break
fast at the Morton Restaurant, which they
were evidently not accustomed to doing.
