DEMPSEY TALKS BUSINESS.

He Makes Two Fair and Ope. Offers to
 Mitchell. Who Thinks He VIII Accept.
 NEW YORK, Dec 14-Jack Dempsey, the Nonpareil, makes two offers in one to Charles Mitchell, as follows:
 II now make two propositions to Mitchell, which l will firmly adhere to. I will fight Mitchell to finish, before the California Athletic club, for the SIC, 900 offered by them, and will guarantee Mir. Mitchell that will meet him in Brooklyn or Jersey City in ten round contest after our battle has been de- cided in San Francesca. My guarantee shall be like this: I will place the sum of S5,000 in the hands of any two fair sporting men Mitchell may suggest, that will meet him in Jersey City or Brooklyn in ten rounS! contest after our return from the Pacific slope. Should fail to do so, to forfeit the $5,000 down.
 ''Or 1 will make further proposition: If Charley Mitchell places the sum of $5, 900 in the hands of any two responsible sporting men may name I will meet him in ten round contest here, and chance defeat before going to California, providing he forfeits the $5,OO0 should he fail to fight me to finish before the California Athletic club after our battle here. These are my propositions, which are finaln
 Mitchell read these propositions carefully, and at the close remarked: That's business through and through" When asked if he would accept he said: 1T shall give the prop ositions the most careful consideration, and think will"

A Kid GIara Gatten

An interesting spectacle can be witnessed on Broadway above Twenty-dfth street every pleasant evening. In the window of kid glove store a man wearing a soiled blouse en- tertains quite crowd by the skillful manner in which he dresses kid skins for the glove makers. His knife might be called a three inch broad chisel, of razor-laSe keenness, which he pushes delicately but swiftly over the uneven surface of the rough leather, smoothing it down most beautifully. Every instant he is obliged to whet the blade with what appears to be an ordinary piece of smooth steel Occasionally the artisan cuts the skin, but he pays no attention to the slip As soon as the skin is dressed it is wrapped in 8 damp cloth with number of others
 When he has finished number of choice, highly colored skins the operator takes one of them and cuts out piece which is to be used for the hack of the glove, the section being frequently eighteen inches in length. From the same piece he cuts out the palm, and the scraps he traces for the insertion pieces for the fingers.
 Ordinarily he uses no guide for the pieces, but when a lady "leaves her measuren he has to exercise as much care in cutting out the pattern as tailor does in preparing a suit pattern.-New York Evening Sun-

A STUDENT DROWNED
While Trying to Save a Lady, Who Also
 Perished.

PeriShed.
 ITHACA, N. Y., Dec. 14-CornelI univer- sity seems fated to lose two or three of her brightest students every year by distressing accidents. Last night Edward Scribner Nevins, go, of Orange, N. J., lost his life in Eddy pond in an,attempt to save Miss Mag gie Sullivan from drowning
 Miss Sullivan was skating. Young Nevins was on the bank with several others He was preparing skates for lady who accom- panied him, Suddenly a crash was heard and Miss Sullivan was seen in the water, with her little sister and a boy, and a moment later another child was in the icy bath. MT. Nevins sprang into the water and endeavored to rescue Miss Sullivan, while the girl who accompanied him stretched her self on the ice and helped the boy out, and a young man rescued the children.
 Nevins and Miss Sullivan sank together It is thought she clasped him so as to impede his freedom of movement, for he was an ex- pert swimmer. Young Beardsley ran for aid, and in few minutes students were at hand. G. F. Conable, go, dove under the ice but sprained his shoulder l.. P. Gle. phane, go, plunged three times into the icy waters, but without result. At last F. Nc. Master, a freshman, brought up the body of Nevins, after it had been in the water about twenty minutes.

She after, ward told Ford, who had not witnessed the occurrence Ford called Barry up to his room and, after some hot words, fired several shots at him. Barry, however, escaped un- hurt, and informed the police, but they I, fused to act without a warrant. Later the O'Connor woman went upstairs and asked for her pitcher, which had been left there Ford began to abuse her, and finally said that he had not shot her husband but he could shoot her, and he did, putting four bull lets into her body.

ALL QUIET AT BIRMINGHAM.

The Mayor Tells the Coroner's Jury the
 Story of the Shooting Affair.
 BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Dec. 1.-The state troops have all gone home, and only few deputy sheriffs are now guarding the county jail. All excitement has passed away and no apprehension is felt of any new outbreak. The coroner's jury to investigate the shoot ing Saturday night met, and the session was consumed in the examination of Mayor Thompson. He testified that he did not con- sider the crowd a mob, though many of them wanted to lynch Hawes. He thought many were present out of curiosity.
 Thompson said he thought twenty five determined officers could have driven back the crowd from the mouth of the alley lead ing to the jail. without bloodshed He says the officers fired first, and he could not say whether any shots were fired by the crowd or not. He was too far away to be sure of this in the excitement.
 The county commissioners notified the coroner and jury that they would not pay the cost of the investigation, and it was de- cided to continue it by private subscription. The commissioners have not announced their reasons for refusing to pay the costaof the investigation.

FATE OF THE BANK wREcksRs.
E. L. Harper Having MaEiac in the
 Ohio Penitentinry.

Ohio Penitentiary.
 COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 14-E. L. Harper, the ex-president of the Fidelity bank, of Cincin- nati, has lost his mind. He came to the Ohio penltentiary one year ago yesterday on a term of ten years as United States pris- oner. Yesterday was also his 10th birthday. He has been ailing several days, and broke down yesterday morning. -.
 He had come to his work in the secretary,s office, when it was found that he was talking at random His insanity seemed to be in the religious line. When his condition was dis covered the officials undertook to remove him to the prison asylum He refused to move without being commanded by God. They were two hours in getting him across the Court square
 It is believed that disappointment in not being assured of a pardon and the fattering promise that Hopkins, his associate, who is on his deathbed, will secure a pardon soon so worked on Harper's mind that reason was dethroned
 Of the Fidelity officers, Briggs Swift is broken in mind and health, Harper is a rav- ing maniac, Baldwin is dead and Hopkins is dying.

CANADA INVITED TO COME lN
Congressman Butterworth Takes the First
 Decisive Step.

Decisive Step.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 14-Congressman But terworth, of Ohio is the first man to officially suggest negotiations with Great Britain and the Dominion of Canada for the admission of Canada into the Union. He introduced joint resolution in the house yesterday to that effect.
 The preamble to the resolution recites that the strained commercial relations between the United States and Canada, as also the geography of the two countries, suggest the impossibility of just and permanent settles ment of the controversies pertaining to the fisheries, boundaries and transcontinental trade, except by blending of efforts and in. terests under one governmental system, and point logically to the necessity and proba- bility of unity and assimilation between the two nations under one government. ,u 1t also recites that the bonds of sympathy resulting from kinship, race, language, tra- dition and substantial identity of govern. mental systems, together with a community of interests based upon commerce and it's aids and agencies, are of such character that such union and assimilation is being dis. cussed and favorably considered by the citi. zens of both nations, and it is believed that its early consummation would be of great advantage to all the citizens and subjects of the two countries, provided the same can he attained ln manner consistent alike with the honor and dignity of the United States and Great Britain and the Dominion of Can. ada The resolution in full is as follows:
 Be it resolved by the senate and house of repre sentatives of the United States, in congress as sembled, That the president be- and he is hereby. authorized and empowered to invite negotiations looking to the assimilation and unity of the people of the Dominion of Canada and the United States under one government, such unity and as similation to be based on the admission of the several provinces of the Dominion or any one ot them, into the union of states upon the same terms and equality with the several states now composing the Union, and the assumption by ths United States of the indebtedness of the Domin. ion of Canada or a just proportion thereof and such other equitable terms and conditions as Justice to the high contracting parties may de. Inand; and
 Resolved further, That with view to such negotiation, the president invite che appointment of commissioners by the government of Great Britain and the Dominion of Canada, to consider the wisdom and axpediency of settling and ad. iusting all controversies and differences which now exist between the two governments erowina out of the fisheries, or otherwise by such union and assimilation as is herenbefore suggested either as to the whole of any province or several provinces of said Dominion; such negotiations ought to be conducted with due regard to the amicable relations which obtain between Great Britain and the United States and the obligations imposed thereby.

The Pona,s nania1

LONDON, Dec. A-The rumors which have been flying about for the last week or mora that the pope was about to leave Rome and establish the headquarters of the church in some other place, has elicited from his holiness an explicit denial that he contempiates any such movement. In making this announce ment the vatican declares that nothing short of gratuitous violence on the part of the Italian government will induce the pope to abandon his position as the sovereign pontiff of Rome, and such action is not feared
