gentleman in this city, in a commuuica-
ton to the MORNING NEWS a day or two
ago, undertook to defen prize figh ing. He
made very lame defense He did not "a
te upt to deal vita the brutal feature, of
the prize ring. If he ha ho would have
fou ID it npossi Die to excuse them on the
plea that it Is better to be able to defend
one, self with ones fist than to resort to the
pistol and the shotgun.
There is no objection to athletic sports,
and there is no reason why one should not
develop his muscles a ID learn how to
handle his fists sklllfully, but there are yer
grave obj sctio1s to men going into ring
to beat and bruise eacd other, until their
best friends can scarcely recognize the o..
for no other reason than that By their
endurance and skill they may win a reputa-
ton for being champion fighters.
1t cannot be denied that prize fight is a
brutal affair, and that it has a bru alizing
effect upon those who witness it. That this
is true is proven by the fact that those who
maaage prize fights and support the prize
ring are out tue toughest class Of men
thai eau DO found in communities in which
prize fighting has some recog nition.
William Mulioo' who trained Sullivan
for his fight with Kilrain, said the other
day in New Orleans: 81 am through for
ever with all ring fights 1 never again
want to see a so man knocked about and
punished as Kilrain was think
boxing g a exercise, and will do all
TINT l can to encourage it, bu l think ring
fighting is too brutal, and | want to see no
IN re of IT. If a trainer of a prize
fighter thinks prize tigh ing is brutal. it is
difficult to see how any one who has no
connection with the prize-ring can volun-
tarlly come TO the defense of it.

CATARRH. Catarrhal Deafness..-Hay Fever.

Sufferers are not generally aware that these diseases are contagious, or that they gre due to the presence of living parasites in the lining membrane of the nose and eu- stachiAn tubes. Microscopic research, hew- ever, has proved this to be a fact, and the result of this discovery is that a simple remedy has been formulated whereby ca tarrh, catarrhal deafness and hay fever are permanently cured in from one to three simple applications made at home by the patient once in two weeks.
 N. B.-This treatment is not a snuff or an ointment; both have been discarded by rep- utable physicians as injurious. A pamphlet explaining this new treatment is sent free on receipt of stamp to pay postage, by A. H. Dixon 6 Son, 337 and 889 West King street, Toronto, nada.-Christian Advocate. Sufferers from Catarrhal troubles should carefully read the above. St

SPORTING MATTERS.

A Rough Game Last NIght-The Meri-

 te 2-The New Havens Gain one on
 Springfield.
 It has always been supposed that the New Britains were the prize fighters of the league, but it seems that there has been a mistake. The Meridens can discount them. They came down here last night, intending to win by rough work; for if they did win they would be in second place. At the first blow of the whistle Dunning, Cunningham, and Lsydon began to be rough. "Mul" Smith was not in it at first, but he got there after awhile. The New Ravens finally found out that they must play rough, and they did 30 with vengeance. Newcomb and Hill gave Dunning, Leydon, and Smith all they want ed, and it is safe to say that this trio will not bring anything but scientific polo whom they come here again.
 "Mull" Smith played half-back and made @ sorry mess of it. He took up most of his time yelling "Get into himi Get into him!" meaning for Cunning and Leyden to knock Johnny Connors about promiscuously. Whatever made Manager Lucas appoint him captain is more than any sane man can un- QeI1t2n0. LoYOOu cOulQQ'b nave stOppoo barrel last night.

Entertainments. ROSE CoGHLAN.


 Miss Rose Coghlan in her brothers inter- eating drama "Jocelynp attracted quite a large audience at the Hyperion Theater last evening. When the play was first presented here last March the wish was expressed that Miss Coghlan would make us another visit soon. The play is certainly most praise worthy one and gives Miss Coghlan ample opportunity to display her powers as an costumes and properties were all that could be desired and the supporting company was even better than that of last year. "Jocelyn" will be repeated this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock and in the evening Miss Coghlan will appear In her we'll known impersonation of s'Peg Wellington" Both entertainments are worthy of patronage and should be greeted with large audiences.
