TIL Il SPORTS.
THE GLOVE CONTEST.

This evening occurs a great event in f1stic
sports. Prof. George Rookie the ex-champion
middle-weight of the world, and Patsy Cardiff
the champion of the Northwest, who is will
ing to meet any man in the world, barring
John l.. Sullivan, will try conclusions with
large soft gloves. The pugulists will spar on
their merits, the winner to take 65 per cent.
and the loser 80 per cent. of the gate re-
ceiyts. They have undergone vigorous
course of training and are in prime condition
for the meeting. Indeed, Cardiff is in better
condition than when he met Billy Wilson
He is larger and stronger and
feels perfectly confident of out-sparring
Prof. Rookie, who is unquestionably
one of the most scientific in the country.
Rookie is somewhat advanced in years, but he
has lost none of his vigorous manhood, and
VIII make dandy setto. There is no danger
of police interference, because it will not be
q prize fight, and therefore does not come
under the prohibitory code. Every spectator
may safely expect one OF the best glove ex-
hibItions ever given in the West, and that is
saying not little. The event of the evening
will come off at 9 o'clock, but will be preceded
by an interesting athletic program, in which
all the leading local athletes and boxers will
appear.
THE STRANGLERS CHALLENGE.
The manager of Evan Lewis, 1.-The strang-
ler,' authorizes this challenge TO Charles
Moth: Lewis will wrestle Moth a match of
catch-as-catch-can style; two Graeco-Roman,
and the other either sidehold or Cornish, as
Moth may elect; or Lewis will throw Moth
four times in one hour at catch-as-catch-can
style; the stakes in either case TO be any sum
Moth may name, with 20 or 100 per cent. of
the gate receipts to go to the winner. Lewis
will not under any circumstances wrestle
Moth straight Gr&co-Roman match. 1.-THE
stranger" is now at his home at Madison,
Wis. Moth will undoubtedly accept.
HAMMEL AGAIN VICTORIOUS.
Phil Hammel again defeated Grant Bell in
night 1t was even more exciting than their
run on Tuesday night. Hammel took the first
mile in 3:15, Bell the second in 6:27, HammeI
the third mile in 9:42, Bell the fourth in 1902
and Hammel the fifth and last in 1900 2-5

meeting.
SPORTING NOTES.
A dog fight occurred at the Minneapolis fair
grounds OH Wednesday. The dogs were
owned by Tom Shaw and Jack O'ConneI
O'Connel's dog weighing only thirty-nin
pounds, after a desperate and bloody fight of
thirty-eight minutes, proved the victor The
other dog weighs forty-eight. pounds, being
consequently nine pounds heavier. Consid-
cradle money changed hands as the betting
was quite lively.
On Saturday night Grant Bell and Phil
Hammel will ride two fve-mile races, one on
a fiat floor and one with raised corners.

to race Judge Corruth.
In all probability the pool tournament will

A CUNNING GREENHORN.
Young Bavarian EmiRrant Swim
dies IA w oman Out of $500.

A few months ago young Bavaran,
who had recently emigrated from his native
land, called ON John Wonder. opposite the
union depot on High street, where he made
his headquarters for time. He appeared
as green foreigner and no one would have
suspected him capable of working shrewd
Swlndle, but he did 10, neverthel ess. He
became acquainted with young Bavaran
who lived with Architect Kegel, and who
has a sister, widow, Mrs. Hannah Noes
sig, living on farm four or five miles from
the city. On Tuesday the old lady came
to the city and the emigrant meeting her.
with her brother. persuaded her to take
him TO her home TO look over her farm.
explaining that it was his intention to
take up farming as a means of livelihood.
At the farm he expressed his
pleasure at the arrangement and conduct of
agricultural affairs, and commended ars.
NOesSig's managerial and executive ability.
She felt fiattered and looked upon her guest
as young man of discretion and wisdom.
However. he had not been at the house but
two days before in strict confidence he re-
vealed to her his future plans. He said he
was going to Dakota to purchase tract of
wild land which he proposed TO put under
cultivation at once. He then alleged that
John Wonder had loaned him So, 900 on
good security, but he still lacked $500 to
complete arrangements for the bonanza en-
terprise. Had she that much money. The
old lady replied with paTdonable pride that
she always kept $500 in the house.
Then loan it to me- will give You am
pie security and return it to you in two
months. Here are papers worth about
$40, 900, keep them until you hear from me.
1t will not be long," and he laid an envel-
ope containing something on the table in
the farm house kitchen.
Mrs. NOessig readily assented, and forth
with went to her room and got the desired
$500 and handed it over TO him. He took
it and said he would have to hurry so as to
take the next train. Bidding the lady
goodbye he left. An hour later the old
lady informed her son of the loan and
showed him the envelope. which he imme-
diately opened, and to the utter astonish-
ment and dismay of both discovered moth
ing of any value whatever. The young
man straightway saddled a horse and
started in pursuit, but all efforts at discov-
ering the swindler were futile. The bird
had flown to parts unknown.

is HE THE MANI
Arrest of an Ex-COnyict upon Suspi.
ciOn of Being a Murderer.

Detective Mike Hoy, Chief of Police
Donnelly and Sheriff Cosgrove of Eau
Claire Wis, spent a half-hour at the Jail
yesterday afternoon, interviewing q short,
seedily-dressed man, whose commonplace
features gave no indication as to what his
character might be. The man was Hank"
keefe, who once ran the Last Chance"
saloon, which was located midway between
st. Paul and Minneapolis. He was arrested
Wednesday by Hoy, upon suspicion of be-
ing the man who last September murdered
an Iowa farmer named Mclean four miles
from Eau Claire. Rewards of $500 by the
county, and $500 by the state have been
offered, and it was upon description of
the murderer sent out, that the arrest was
made. Keefe's reputation does not alto
gether warrant the presumption of the
innocence which he positively asserts. He
was sentenced to serve five years in the
penitentiary, but was pardOned by the gov
ernOr before his time was out. His arrest
for the crime, it will be remembered. was
accompanied by Chaska sheriff. who eff
fected the capture by giving him liberal
dose of buckshot. The officers were una
BILE yesterday to positively identify Keefe
as the man who is wanted. Mclean, the
murdered man, was seen with stranger
whose description answers to Keefe's APP
pearance. They were seen to drive out of
Eau Claire together in the evening. The
next morning Mclean was found in
marsh about four miles from the city with
his throat cut from ear to ear, and the team
was found in the possession of farmer
named Whipple lin neighboring town.,
who said he had purchased it that day.
This is the only man who can identify the
murderer, and as Keefe refuses to go to
Eau Claire of his own accord, Mr.. Whipple
will be sent for.
sits all mistake, gentlemen" said Keefe
yesterday to the officers. Il can prove where
have been every day for the past FIVE years,
and know j haven't been in Eau Claire for
ten years. I've been all around the co untry,
but haven't been there"
'sIf you are so certain you can establish
your innocence, why wont you go to Eau
Claire and settle the matter?''
"Just because know there have been cases
of mistaken identity before this, and this man
who bought the horses might possibly think
was the man who sold them TO him. If I'm to
be held for trial, would rather be here
where / have some few friends"
Keefe then went on to give detailed
account of his movements, and among
other things said he was aware the officers
were looking for him. When arrested he
was employed by Al Carlson, a horse
dealer.

SMALLsS REPLY.
A Csustic Soda Motor En- Route and
Due TO-MOrroW,

Out of all the cloud of rumors, guesses
and general uncertainty surrounding the
motor question, one thing only is clear and
evident, that no change has come yet and
the cars are being drawn by horses. Pres
ident Small has not yet replied to the ex-
ecutiye committee for the reason that he
has nothing to say, but he remains here and
faces the music. As the GLOBE stated on
Wednesday morning csustic soda motor
was ordered by telegraph with instructions
to ship at once. 1t left Chicago yesterday
and will be due this evening, but the motor
people do not emphasize this for the pur-
pose of avoiding any disappointment or
dissatisfaction in case it is delayed. 1t is
the Honigman patent and has given most
satisfactory results in every case. Beyond
a doubt the new motor will be here and in
operation by the first of next week, and
this will be Mr.. Small's answer to the ex-
ecutiye committee. If the soda motor is a
success it will be used; if moi. there is gen.
eral feeling that bond or no bond steam will
be in use in short time thereafter

General Notes.

E. NJ. Moulton is the latest horse entered
by the Republicans for mayoralty honors.
Aid. G. G. Cutter of the Third ward has, up
TO a recent date, been considered alone in the
Republican field for nomination. But now
his mind is disabused. Mr.. g. u. Hammond,
a prominent real estate dealer, has buckled
on his armor. and now there are two Richards
in Bosworths field of the Fifth. Mr. Ham
mond is widely known and popular, and, his
friends claim, he stands an excellent chance
for carrying off the nomination, and Mr..
Hammond concludes, upon looking up the
election records for the past ten years, that a
Republican nomination in the Fifth ward is
euuiValent TO an election.
