He remained in his room during nearly
the entire forenoon, but at about II
o'clock he came down to the gymna-
SUM. where a large number of the
members of the Southern Athletic club
and their guests were assembled. His
condition had viSibly improved and his
eyes were brighter and his movements
much more active than on the
previous day. Mitchell appeared to be
well contented with his mans condition,
and said: IF Sullivan doesn't lick him
in twenty minutes he wont do 1T in
month" The members of the clup,
some of whom were disappointed at his
appearance on his arrival, changed
their minds to-day, and expressed
themselves astonlshed at his physi-
cal development as we'll as the inn
provement in his demeanor. Said one:
''He is one of the most deceiving men
/ ever saw. To look at him one would
take him to be a loose tainted, round
shouldered fellow, about five feet, ten
inches tall, with small chest, long
arms. and not at all athletic; yet
you should see him under excitement,
as | did. His form appeared to lengthen
fully three inches, his chest bulged
out, his eyes flashed, and he appeared
able to knock down a mule with his
fists" When carriages were in readl-
ness Kilrain, Mitchell, Murphy, Moore
and the others retired to their rooms
and
PACKED THEIR GRIPS.
1t had been given out that the party
was gong to the West end for drive,
and only the usual excitement was Gre
ated by the departure of Kilrain. When
nnnnnrnH
with their grips it was seen that the
party was bound for the scene
of the coming battle and not
for the West end. AS Kilrain left
the gymnasium, in reply to the adieuS
of the club and wishes for his safe and
speedy return, he said: "Good-bye,
boys; I'll be back with you in short
time, and I'll bring you good news"
These confident words, accompanied as
they were by smile and a look of de-
termination, evoked loud cheers. The
party set out and were driven direct
to the Queen and Crescent depot.
On arriving there train, consisting of
engine No. II, baggage car and two
passenger coaches, was found in walt
ing. Kilrain and some of his friends
entered one of the coaches, and SullI-
van and seven of his friends took
the other coach, and at O'Clock
the train departed for the field
of battle. At $3.50 o'clock this evening
the arrival of both principals and friends
on the battle-ground was wired to the
city. Last night Capt. w. 81, Beanham,
commanding the Louisiana field artll-
lery, fifty strong, received orders from
Gov Nichols to hold his command in
readiness to move at moments notice.

SERMONS IN NAILS.
The Novel Way in Which Rev.
Charles Sturgeon Illustrates

Charles Sturgeon Illustrates
His Lectures.
Philadelphia North American.
Last evening at Bethany Presbyte-
rian church, Rev. Charles Sturgeon,
son of the author of the celebrated
Spurgeon sermons. delivered for the
first time in this city his lecture enti-
tied "Sermons in Nails" Mr.. Spurgeon
has novel manner of illustrating his
subject, by the use of guilt cross.
which is operated by means of two
electric wires, which are run from the
bottom of the cross to the top and then
to the support, which is situated di-
rectly behind it, and are then run to
the floor, where they are connected
with battery. Several different styles
of nails are used, representing the
many classes of people to whom minis
tiers of the gospel direct their sermons.
After giving brief description of the
class of persons which he represents by
one of these nails, he places it at the
bottom of the cross. and the current of
electricity holds the nail in place. Some
of the nails are made OF iron, and Will
hold fast. These are used to Illustrate
the people VINO prOnG IroHl tlle SeIilioLS
they hear. The others are made OF
wood covered with gilt, and conse-
quently will not hold. They represent
people who are needless, and need to be
constantly reminded of their danger.
Among the people who were repre-
scented by the nails was: MI. Stuckup,
as Mr.. Spurgeon termed the one who he
represented by gilt-headed nail that
was very straight. That character, said
Spurgeon, is the hardest kind of min
lister to make an impression on. Mr..
Stuckup is one who would consider it
an insult for any one to speak to him
upon the subject OF religion, or, in fact,
anything that would benefit him in any
manner.
There are several classes too numer-
Gus to mention which he represents by
means of nails and screws of different
kinds bent in as many shapes.

LONDON, July 1.-THE shah, accom-
panied by the Prince and Princess of
Wales and others of the royal family,
went to Bayswater this afternoon to at
tend garden party given in the shah's
honor by the Persian minister here,
Prince Macolm Khan. The shah goes
to Hatfield tomorrow, where he will be

shah's visit, if productive of no other
permanent results, has at least served
to start an immense Persian boom
among financiers in London. Baron

bank scheme which promises to enlist
millions of English capital. He has
already obtained concession from the
shah for his bank, with the right to
issue legal tender notes and to circulate

has secured other concessions said to be
of great value, among which are the
right to work some of the rich mineral

JENNIE WARD ELOPES.
After a Quarrel With Her Hus-
band, She Accepts a Brazilian's
Protection

ATLANTIC CITY, Nj, July 7.-There
were real actors in real melodrama
here to-day. Pretty Jennie Ward was
one of the principals, and DR.. Desilva, a
dark-skinned but handsome Brazilian,
who is we'll known in Philadelphia, sue
cessfully played the role of ''the deep
dyed villain" When Odell Williams
and his pretty young wife, Jennie
Ward, concluded their engagement with
the Beacon Light company, they
brought their infant prodigy, Baby
William, to the city by the sea for
a rest, and, if possible, an engagement.
They drifted down town to AL
brecht's hall. the one Thespian tenn
pie, where all artists who are bohemian
izing can be found. Latterly the wife
and child signed for short engagement.
Miss Jennie Ward sang in serio-comic
songs and Baby Williams did special
ties, while Odell WIlioms helped to
consume the salary. The plan was
happy one until DR.. Desilva appeared
on the scene. He had lots of time and
Miss Ward as she was on the bills.
Champagne flowed freely and the doc
tor was always at hand to contribute to
the comfort and entertainment of the
seriO-comic singer. Odell Williams did
not see as much of his wife as he
thought proper, so last night he took
her to task for being too free in
her attentions. The conversation
took place in their bed room off
of the Albrecht's garden. She asserted
her independence and said she would
drink with whom she pleased. The
actor said she should not. A stormy
scene followed, and the climax was
reached by Odell, who produced their
marriage certificate, which he tore into
shreds with all the proper dramatic en-
phasis. Then he violently pushed her
aside, and in an excited condition she
rushed down stairs, where the dark and
handsome doctor sat musing over the
last of pint bottle. She demanded
his protection. ChivalrouSly he
raised his right hand and sug-
gested flight. An hour later the doc
tor, Mrs. Williams and the baby prodigy
were seated in the carriage which is
said to be the property of the doctor,
and were seen driving furiously over
the meadows toward HammontOn.
This morning they took train to Phila-
delphia, and are now said to be en-
route to Rio JaAeiro. where the doctor
has wealthy father. Odell Williams.
since their flight, has been acting like
maniac. He has been going around
with revolver ready to shoot either
his wife or her companion. He declares
he will follow them to the ends of the
earth. Mrs. Williams Is the daughter
of Nathan Ward, of Piedmont. N. Y,
and has been married about three years.

DROPPED BRAGG.
The General COolly Treated by a
G. A. r. Post.

FOND DU LAC, Wis.,, July THE
Grand Army post held meeting last
night and dropped Gen. Bragg from the
list of members. The meeting was a
very stormy one, and when the vote was
taken it was 8 to 1 against Bragg. The
trouble over the matter was occasioned
by those who did not like Gen. Bragg's
course on the pension bill. A previous
attempt to court-martial the general at
that time was beaten. Since that time
Bragg has gone to Mexico as minister,
and the hight was renewed. On his re-
turn the general wanted to pay his dues,
which had accumulated, and he was put
off with the objection that he was never
legally member of the post, although
he was its first commander.

THE LEGAL FLAG
Must Not Contain FOrty-Two Stars
Till Next July 4.

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Although the
navy department has issued an order
to the effect that hereafter all flags
made for the navy shall contain forty
two stars, a request from the assistant
treasurer at New York for flag of this
description has been refused by the
treasury department. The officials of
the revenue marine bureau, which dis
tributes flags to the custom houses, rev.
enue marine boats, etc., hold that
flag with forty-two stars is not legal
flag, and will not be until the next fourth
of July, according to law and the adj
mission OF the new states. The flags
with forty-two stars are just one year
ahead of time according to a revenue
marine official in conversation with a
reporter yesterday. He said the local
contractor who furnishes the flags says
that all the flags which he makes for
private individuals contain the increased
number of stars. That is all right so
far as private parties are concerned, but
the government must have legal flag
or none.

San Francisco Chronicle.
There are over fifty confirmed opium
fiends at present incarcerated at the
house of correction. An official of that
institu ton said yesterday that there
were fully 100 prisoners out of a total
of 33S who would not refuse little of
the drug if they could lay their hands
upon it. Some time ago Supt.
Foley became alarmed at the
prospect of visitors smuggling dope"
to the prisoners, and since that time
the second Tuesday in each month has
been set apart as visiting day at the
prison. Friends of prisoners are, as a
and /, other officials during any other day
of the month. Those visitors who are
given passes are carefully searched be-
fore entering the prison. AS Supt.
Foley remarked to Mayor Pond some
months ago: 1.-The only safe way to
keep opium out of the prison is to skin
every outsider who enters the prison."
