Hornbacker a hverite at three to one. Horn
hacker was attended by his brother and
Kelly was LOOKED after by Billy Oliver and a
friend. In THE early rounds Hornbacker
took the lead and soon had Kelly bleeding
from the nose and mouth, the blood trickling
down his breast until he looked like a victim
of a buzz-saw. Afterwards Kelly forced the
fighting and in the Ninth round closed Horn
hackers left eye. Then he cut his lips and
face, and in the fourteenth round had HIM
groggy. Both were very weak in the ff.
teenth round.

DIES MONIES, Ia, Oct. 13-[Specal Tele,
gram to THE BEE. The case of Laura Row
land, the girl from Dubuque who was sent to
the Mitchcllville reform school, and was the
subject of some scandal a few weeks ago, is
practically settled. Governor Larrabce, after
investigating 1t, announced to-day that no
thing more would be done, it being shown
that she was a girl of bad character before
she entered the school. And it was further
shown that the articles first written about her
in the Dubuque papers were unreliable. and
the facts are not, in his Judgment, such as to
require any further investigation.

The desire of the players to get at Schafer

billiards right after election after all.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 13.-[Special Tele-
gram to The BEE. The Des Moines ball
club attempted to play an exhibition game
with the home team this afternoon, but as six

rather groggy. A feature of the game, which
the home team Won by a scere of II to 4, was

The Monkey Work Continues.

There Is no necessity of reducing the num-
Der of called balls to four. II could not DOS
sibly have any influence upon the batting, but
instead make all games redundant with that
disagreeable feature of bases on balls. Every
body seems busy cudgellng their brains to
propose some meritorius change in the rules.
AS yet no one has met with startling success.
The change in the distance between pitcher
and batsman is the most feasible and the most
practical change yet suggested, if any change
is to be made at all. Again The BEE advises
that the present splendid code OF rules be
left seriously alone.

"S6lo tengo tempo para anun-
