WAITING FOR CHRIsTMAS.
Congress Not Likely to do N uch Till
sTter the Holidays.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The customary
concurrent resolution for a holiday recess
has not yet been offered in either branch Of
congress. but it is the general expectation
that when the two houses adjourn next
Wednesday it will be to reassemble at noon
on the first Tuesday in 1887. 1t is probable
that the senate will pass the deficiency ap
preparation bill making provision for the
work at the government printing Office be-
fore the recess and the senate is likely to
transact li.faa or no other hnsness of i'm
portance during the week. The special
orders for the week are the railroad attorney
bill, the joint resolution authorizing the
secretary of war to accept certain lands
near Chicago for military purposes. the
bill forfeiting the New Orleans, Baton
Rouge 81 Vicksburg Railroad company land
grant, and the Pacific railroad funding bill.
The consideration Of the first depends
upon
THE RETURN OF MIR. EVARTs,
who is not expected until after the recess,
and of the second upon the health of Gen.
Logan, who has been confined to his house
some days by all attack of rheumatism. AS
several senators have already left town and
more are likely to 60 away on Monday and
Tuesday, it is not thought probable that
the special orders will be pressed for action.
though one or both may be taken up for
debate. The same conditions are likely to
prevent the consideration of the interstate
commerce bill, but Senator Cullom will try
to secure for it the position of unfinished
business" so that it may take precedence
after the recess In the house tomorrow,
after the call of states for the introduction
of new bills, the committees will be called
tor motions to suspend the rules, the call
resting with the committee on militia. Mr..
Forney, in behalf of the committee, will at
tempt to secure the passage of the senate
bill increasing the appropriation to provide
ARMS FOR THE MILITIA
forces of the United States. The bill has
been amended by the house committee SO
as to reduce the proposed annual appropri-
alton from $500, 600 to $500, 900. Chair
man Watson, of the committee on invalid
pensions, will move to suspend the rules
and pass the substitute for the Blair pen
sion bill, providing pensions for soldiers
who have become disabled and are depen-
dent upon charity for support. The Mexi-
can pension bill may also be called up for
passage. On Tuesday there will be
struggle for precedence among the support
ers of the bill establishing department of
agriculture and labor, the bill recognizing
the naval bureaus and the Pacific railroad
bill. The friends Of. the pending Oklahoma
bill have also determined to urge final ac-
ton on that subject. Whichever measure
first secures consideration will probably
engross the attention of the house until the
adjournment for the holiday recess.

SUDDEN FORTUNES.
There Are VfndfRlls to be Had, but
Not English Estates.

New York Sun,
A well-known broker of Wall street
asserts that luck has had more to do with
tn making of sudden and immense for
tunes in the street than is commonly sup
posed. He referred for one example to his
own experience. and said that twice he had
found himself $500, 900 better off at night
than ne was in the morning, and had at
once realized, although when he went down
to the street that day he had no idea of
making such comfortable sum.
Any one who thinks he has any claim on
funds in the court of chancery need not
spend his money in buying worthless and
misleading book, for an official list Of un-
claimed dividends is now published every
three years in supplement to the London
Gazette, a copy of which is placed in the
law courts, outside the paymaster generals
office, and is open to public inspection.
But, some unbeliever may argue. look at
the windfalls some people have had, and
what huge sums have been recovered. Per-
fectly true. but then the person who OBJ
tanned this piece Of luck knew all along
where the money was, or, ar any rate,
some member of the family did. Certainly
the information was never sprung upon
him by any spectators list.-Frank Les

There is on exhibition in Wells, Fargo &
Co.. s bank bit of auriferOus rock that any
individual might be glad to possess. The
nugget Is one of the finest ever unearthed in
California. both in size and richness. 1t is
| irregular in shape and about the size of an
ordinary Derby hat That there is very
little rock and great d o. of gold in it
may be determined by its weight, which is
about thirty-five pounds troy. Quartz
of this sort is usually valued at $500
per pound, and, allowing the large mar
gin of $1,000 for rock, the nugget
would be worth SIS, 600. The exposed rock
and great gobs of gold that hang out of its
sides, so as to nearly hide all other compo-
sition and made it appear almost as melted
metal, are not jagged or rough, but, on the
| contrary are smooth and polished in a
manner that only water is capable of. The
proprietors of the nugget are Messrs. Hayes
and Steeleman. of Sierra City, and they
have left it on exhibition for few days.
At the bank it attracts much attention, but
the employees could furnish no information
concerning it beyond that it came from
Sierra county and near Sierra.-San Fran

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-There is no
likelihood of the passage of the bill for the
enlargement and improvement Of our coast
defenses during the present session OF con-
gress. The chairman of the committee is
dilatory in the matter, and, indeed, inclined
to oppose any and all measures which
might now be introduced looking in that
direction. At time when the reduction
of our national revenues is uppermost in the
minds of the politicians. they are not in
clined to increase national expenditures.
lest such increase might form an argument
for the continuance of the present high
and ruinous tariff list. 1t is strange, but
true, that the gentlemen who seem TO have
a most intelligent idea of
OUR NATIONAL NEEDS.
in the matter of defenses. are reluctant to
advance their patriotic ideas so long as the
tariff schedule remains unimproved. This
should constitute strong and convincing
argument for the early settlement OF the
mooted question Of revenue reform. But
it is not likely to do so at the present seS-
sion. Mr.. Randall, of Pennsylvania. Is
opposed to revenue reform and is also op-
posed to strengthening the national arma-
ture. In this, and probably in this alone,
can the opponents Of the great leader &C
+ 'uSe him of unpatrlOtc motives. Yet 1t IS
certain that he stands athwart the pathway
of progress in this particular, and hampers
the country in its most vital interests. But
Mr.. Randall is an honorable man and a
statesman of undoubted ability.

DUBLIN, Dec 19.-Mr. Dillon was I'M
able to attend any meeting to-day. Mr..
McLane, presiding at an anti-rent cam
paign meeting at Knock Monlee to-day,
said that if all the Nationalist leaders were
arrested Catholic priests would take their

government in violent terms for con-
spring with Judge O'Brien to uSurp
the functions of the jury and
manufacture a verdict by illegal means.
The pretense of bringing Mr.. Dillon and
himself to trial, he said, was sham. The
government never hoped to bring to trial,
but did hope that before verdict could be
obtained from jury they would succeed
in suppressing the anti-rent movement by
proclamation and arbitrary conduct He
warned them that they would have to
adopt still more drastic measure than the
peaceful ''plan of campaign" to stay the
arms of evicting landlords. The Irish

Sporting men from Minneapolis and
sporting men from St. Paul, little and big
and white and black, crowded the saloon
of Tom Mitchell, in the basement corner
of Wabasha and Fourth streets yesterday
evening. They were there in anticipation
of an interesting set to between two colOred
pugilists. and they eagerly awaited the arr-
val of the ''BlackssPerap John Harris), OF
Minneapolis, and BLACK Frank" alias
Frank Taylor. of this city. About fifteen
minutes before o'clock the lions of the oc-
casion made their appearance, chaperoned
by some noted celebrities. A Misunderstanding
and a muffled murmur of satisfaction,
which would have been a mighty unanl-
nous yell but for the police and the Sun
day ordinance. were the tokens OF welcome
which pleased the w0uld-b be belligerentS.
Not far from the rat pit is the ring. a space
separated from the billiard tables and the
bar by stout cord. The fight was to occur
at O'Clock sharp, to be fight to finish
with kid gloves. Everything was in readi-
ness when knock at the door was heard
that huShed the babel of noise within.
The interested parties had taken the pre-
caution to lock the doors. The men barred
from admission were Sergt. Murphy. and
Detectives Keneally. Dan O'COnnor and
Dan Ahern. The sergeant again knocked,
but the crowd inside were ''On," as it were,
and no one responded. The sergeant
called up Lieut.. Walsh, and
he and Chief of Detectives John
O'COnnor were soon at the scene.
Entrance was demanded and allowed;
the great sporting event of the season
ceased before the two pugilists were even
stripped to the pelt. Tom Mitchelfs saloon
was cleared and closed. With heavy heav-
ings of disappointment the crowd of sports
hurried sheepishly away, and the two black
priZe-fghters. their managers and the ref
cree signiHed their intention to go to Min
neapolis and have it out there. The au-
thorities expressed the opinion that it was
decidedly cheeky to bring pugilists from
Minneapolis to st. Paul on Sunday night
to fight to finish. 1t was limited last night
that complaint would be entered to-day to
Mayor Rice to secure revocation of Mitch
ellis license.

BRUTAL BRUiSERS.
Savage Fight Of Eight Rounds in
ROAfOn.

BosToN, Mass, Dec. 19.-The most saw
age prize fight without exception that has
ever been fought in this part of the country
occurred at a late hour last night in dis
used loft on one. of the wharves in this city,
the principals being Dick Crolin, of Boston,
and Abe Hume, the champion lightweight
OF the United States navy. The pugilists'
hands were covered with the lightest kid
gloves. and they fought until both were so
weak that they were unable to stand, when
the referee declared the contest draw.
Eight desperate rounds were fought. There
were several knock downs and blood flowed
freely Oh both Sides The faces of both
men were terribly cut and disfgured and
both had to be carried from the spot. Early
in the night the police got wind of the af-
fair and on three occasions during the even
ing, when preparations had been completed
for the fight, appeared and prevented it.
There was bad blood between the princi-
pals. however, and finally the loft was Sc
cured into and from which the fighters and
spectators had to ascend and descend hand
over hand on ropes. Ten well known
sporting men contributed purse of $500,
and only they, besides the seconds, wit
messed the fight.

OPPOSE TEE SECRETARY.
Views Of Naval Off GERS ON the APP
prentice system.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 19.-Several promi-
nent naval officers stationed in this city are
openly opposed to the plan of Secretary
Whitney for the admission of certain
number of meritorious naval apprentices to
the naval academy. One of the most out
spoken of the number said to-day that a
similar experiment had already been tried
twice before and each time resulted in the
breaking up Of the apprentice system. 1t
is said that the majority of the officers who
have beeh connected with the training SER
vice, as well as those now in the service
who came in through the apprentice sys-
tenn, are strongly opposed to the repetition
of what they characterize as 1.-The unfortu-
nate experiments of 1916 and 1864" The
officer added:
Certainly practi cal knowledge of men who
have been intimately acquainted with the
apprentice system for years ought to be re-
garded as more valuable than the sentimental
views of those wh o have no intimate knoWF
edge of the subject.

report, however. throughout the entire belt
that the crop is in good to fine condition.
The movement of corn is reported to be

FARGO, Dak., Dec. 19.-The first cast
On the docket OF the district court, which

proceedings instituted against Messrs.
Rourke and Rymer. of the Ransom county
bar. These gentlemen are charged witt
conduct incompatible with professions
purity, whereby hangs tale. A long tint
ago the sweet and modest beauty of Sarab
Highland won, as is alleged, the hearts
best affections of one Hughes an old-time
citizen of Ransom county. Sarah was a
pretty milliner. and Joe-not 'Ostler-was
proprietor OF hostelry at Lisbon. This
course of true love sped its happy course
unbroken and unIetarded by many of the
conventiOnalitieS which makes life misera.
bic, until, so goes the merry tale. the maiden
coy informed the swarthy Joseph that
minister or doctor would have TO be called
upon TO straighten the matter out A doctor
being more available than parsOn, DR..
Bradley. since convicted of assisting in
sweh. g the vote of Sargent county two
years ago, is said to have been called upon
professionally to undo the harm which had
been done in the innocence of love.
WHEN THE DEED WAS DONE
SOnleDOoy idu SOmeDOuy else arrested, and
Dr.. Bradley and Mr.. Hughes were ar
raigned before Justice Rymer for abortion,
and it is alleged that in the conduct of this
proceeding there were certain irregularities
confessions suppressed and other matters
of so serious import as to render the i'm.
peachment of the Messrs. Rourke and
Rymer necessary to the preservation of the
dignity of the Ransom county bar. A new
complication has arisen in the case from the
fact that Mr. Rourke has, since their pro
ceedings have been commenced, beel
elected district attorney. Ii the fight can
be fenced off until after the 1st of January.
when he takes his Office, he might mol. pros
the whole proceedings, which is whats prom.
inent citizen is afraid of. This citizen is
a great friend of Sarah, and is putting
forth the same energy in this case which
characterized his connection with the $2,-
600. 900 PerOnto case, and against him is
arrayed the entire bar of Ransom county,
who believe evidently in standing together
with the other fellow. The fight promises
to be severe one and will develop some
racy facts i'll relation to matters and things
in Ransom.

GONE TO WASHINGTON.
what Indian Territory Belegates
Will Ask of Congress.

ST. LOUIS. Dec. 19.-Advices from the
Cherokee Indian nation are to the effect
that the council of the nation has elected
Col. c. j. Harris and III. F. Landow as
delegates to Washington to represent the
Cherokees during the present session of
congress. They are instructed at length on
Cherokee affairs, among other things to
urge upon congress the passage of a bill
giving the nation right to tax the railroads
running through the country the same as
they do in the states, and compel these
roads to cease determinations in freight
and passenger rates against the citizens Of
the indian territory, as they are now doing.
The delegation is also instructed to get an
act of congress, if possible, to test before
the proper courts whether or not the emf
nent- domain act can be applied to the lands
of the Indian territory. or, in other words,
whether lands of this territory can be taken
by congress and given TO private corpora
tions. The delegation is a good one. The
Cherokee council has changed the time of
allowing stock to be driven into the country
and extended it one month from April to
May /. This will be of interest to stock
men throughout the country. Another law
allows persons to ship lumber and timber
