A Plucky Battle of Thirty-four
Rounds at KeOgan Lake.

A Plucky Battle of Thfrty-fOur
Rounds at KeOgan Lake.
A hard-fought battle took place this
morning at Keogan lake between two dogs
which were well matched as to size, weight
and endurance. The ''tips' for the fight
was given to only few, and when the
ring was formed at Z o'clock it was found
that the select group of admirers of canine
pugilism numbered less than twenty. The
first dog on the ground was Jack orln-
die Irish hull, owned by a prominent sa-
loon-keeper. His age was fourteen months,
and he tipped the scales at 40 pounds. His OPP
n ent was ''Prince''an English bull, whose
white body was slightly spotted with vel
low. In age he was three months older and
had one pound the advantage in weight.
Neither dog had fought before, but their
owners were so confident in the staying
qualities of their pets that it was agreed
that the fight should be to the death. The
fight lasted one hour and three-quarters,
during which Jhirty-four scratches" were
fought.
Up to the thirtieth scratch the fight was
evenly contested, but during the three sue
ceeding scratches Prince had it all his own
way. Jack fought pluckily in the thirty
third, not having the strength to stand
When time was called for the thirty-fourtf
he was too weak to scratch, and the fight
was given to Prince. The fight was very
savage one from the start, and neither dog
showed any disposition to weaken. Prince
is owned by farmer living near Keegar
lake, and those who witnessed the fight are
confident he can whip Jumbo" the win
ner of the fight in South Minneapolis three
weeks ago.

FUN FOR THE FOURTH.
The Celebration Already Begun--
Choice of Pleasures


AS is usual when a great public holiday
falls on Sunday, the celebration of the
Fourth of July has already begun. Satur-
day night, while not at all uproarious, was
exceedingly lively and the same may be said
of last night. While the day was quiet and
much like any other summer Sunday, the
evening ushered in the fun and the noise
and fireworks were general. At this hour
no accidents have been reported and no dis
turbances occasioned and consequently no
one complained of the celebration. In a
city of so many creedS and nationalitieS. it
is but natural that after o'clock Sunday
should end with many people and their
patriotism take free reign. 1t was notice
able, however, that the streets were entirely
clear of anything like rowdyism or drunk
enneSs.
The general celebration will occur to-day,
as the banks and all public institutions will
observe the day. There is a wide range
Tor those seeking amusement and jrecrea-
ton. Excursion trains will run, at re-
duced rates, to every resort in the neigh
borhood, and each resort has its particular,
special attraction. The bombardment of
Fort Sumter, at Minnetonka Beach in the
evening, will be the event of Minnetonka.
The theaters will all be open, save the
Grand. and there are sports innumerable
The Twin Cities Driving club races at the
fair grounds will be leading attraction,
the racing program being an especially
good one. Two games of base ball will be
played by the home team at the Minneapo-
lis ball park, Eau Claire playing in the
morning and Duluth in the afternoon. The

A FESTIVE SUNDAY.
Suburban Resorts All Crowded.
Pleasure and Picnic.

Pleasure and Picnic.
Ten thousand people went from Minnie
apolis yesterday by the motor and spent the
day at the urban lakes, at Mlnnehana rams
or at Minnetonka. The rush and crowd
were phenomenal, even for the day. FROM
o'clock until in the evening trains ran at
tifteen-minute intervals. the trains averag-
ing six cars each and the coaches averaging
each seventy passengers during the nldole
of the day. At least III, 00O persons went
out to escape the sitting heat leaving tilat
venerable and much-abused individual, the
I Oldest inhabtant, to stay at home anu rack
his brain for parallel to this spell OF
weather. At the several resorts the crowd
disposed itself satisfactorily and fought
heat and mosquitoes. Frank La Mondue
gave a creditable exhibition of tight-rope
walking at Minnehaha. The tight wire is
! stretched across the glen, 100 feet
above the water, and on it the
athlete accomplishes many acts of strength
and skill. At Calhoun the steamer Hattie
was constantly crowded with excursion
parties, while the pleasure boats at both
| Harriet and Calhoun did thriving business
all day. =
The West Side Turner society had gala
day at Germania park, at Keegan lake.
Trains ran from the union depot at hourly
intervals throughout the afternoon, and
carried large crowds to the spot. Besides
the usual pleasures of picnicking there
were many athletic sports, including turn
ing. leaping and jumping. The particl-
pants did not return until late hour.
1t was midnight before the lakes were
deserted. Hennepin avenue boulevard ano
Lake street were thronged with vehicles
until nearly that hour, while the motor
trains were loaded down. Those who re-
manned after evening enjoyed the best par
| of the dav
