Round Battle with Daily.

T1PEcIAL 10 TIE WORLD,
DosToS. Dec. b.-After fifteen rounds Of
rather tame fighting tho lightweight battle
between Jack McAulihe, OF Williamsburg, N.
Y, and Mike DAILY, Of Bangor, Me-, before the
PAruell Athletic Club, was declared . draw by
the referee, Joe LAnnon.
Most OF the big crowd Of sports present
thought MoAuliffe had the best Of the battle.
but the advantage was not sufficient to warrant
the referee in deciding against the Bangor man.
There was painful delay over the selection OF
referee. John L. Sullivan had declined to act,
and the McAulifs party wanted Jere Dunn.
Dunn was not acceptable to DAILY. and after
much wrAnRlinG the principals agreed on Joe
Lannon.
The police ware present. and at the end Of
fifteen rounds the fight vas declared drawn.

A Bird as q Witness.

There was q witness In court IN
Savannah, Ga, whose testimony was SO
conclusive that it was not questioned. A.
gentleman owned a beautiful mocking
bird, of which he was very fond. The
bird was stolen. Every effort was made
to find it; it could not be found. At
last the gentleman heard that a Northern
visitor, who had been in the city alb
winter, was returning North with re-
markable mocking bird. He hurried OF
to the sailing vessel, and there found a
gentleman with mocking bird which ne
recognized at once as his lost bird. The
new owner would not accept the claim,
but finally it was arranged that the
gentleman claiming the bird should make
a complaint before magistrate and prove
that the bird was his. When in the
presence of the magistrate the gentleman
claiming the bird said that he would
whistle an air, and if the bird took it up
and followed him that should be con-
vincing evidence. Ali agreed to this
test. The gentleman began to whistle
"st. Patrick's Day." the bird listened q
moment, took up the air and finished It,,
The magistrate thought that settled the
question of ownership, and the bird was
given up. It is said that the Northerner
offered $1,000 for the bird, but it was re-
fused. ,-.

TRIED BY RED MEN.
The First Trial on Record of an In
dian by a Jury Of His Countrymen.

dian by a jury OF His Countrymen.
A dispatch from Red Lake Falls Mimi,
gives particulars Of the first trial on record
Of one Indian by jury Of red persons. On
June "a an Indian named Big Bird while out
hunting shot and killed another Indian. Big
Bird and his friends claimed it was an acci-
dent. The matter was reported to Major B.
P. Schuler, the Governments agent In charge
of the reservation. By an act Of Congress
passed in 1885 the jurisdiction Of the United
States Court was for the first time extended
over all the Indian reservations in the coun-
try. Major Schuler determined to have this
matter legally investigated and empaneled a
Jury of six full -blooded Indians, entirely dis
connected by ties Of relationship or other in
terests with either the deceased Indian or the
Indian who did the shooting. Big Bird and
the friends of the dead man were allowed to
send for witnesses who were sworn and gave
their testimony, after which the jury retired
under the instructions of the agent, who pre-
sided as judge. The jury deliberated from 9
o'clock in the evening until II o'clock the
next morning, when through their foreman
they announced that they were unanimously
of the opinion that there was sufficient
cause for suspicion that the shooting was not
accidental" and requested that the accused
be held for trial by the United States Court,
whereupon Big Bird was locked up to await
the arrival of the Deputy United States Mar
shall.
Major Schuler states that he never saw

responsibility, or who gave closer attention

by the evident desire to bring out the facts
on the part Of the witnesses, all Of whom
were Indians

4 CHAIN OF TRAGEDIES.
Telegraphic Details of Crime
+! and Calamity.
Loss Of Life and Property by
Floods in Texas.

A heavy rain fell in Texas and great dam
age has resulted. Reports from the West
show heavy rains for 200 miles. The Brazos
and Trinity Rivers were booming. At Ben
brook, twelve miles west, the bridge Of the
Texas and Pacific and 500 feet Of the track
were washed away. The st. Louis, Arkan-
sas and Texas for two miles out was sub
merged. The Missouri, Kansas and Texas
and the Fort Worth and Denver abandoned
their tracks north.
The Texas and Pacific abandoned trains
both east and west. At Fort Worth the bot
tom lands to the north for two miles and to
the east for a mile and a half were sub
merged. The Trinity rose four and half
feet in an hour, and the dwellers on the low
lands barely escaped. City Marsha! Farmer,
Sheriff Richardson, and their entire force
for the time became rescuing corps, and
manned the boats which brought the people
to the city, where they were quartered tn
large warehouses. There were 200 men, wo-
men and children thus cared for.
81. Plume and sister are said to have been
washed away, and Mrs. Fl. s. Bentley and
Patrick, her son, vino lived on the Trinity,
are missing and said to be drowned. Their
house was carried away. The river
there is two miles wide, and all
the CABINS and tents are gone. Inc
st. Louis, Arkansas and Texas operator
received message that the west fork Of tho
Trinity was coming down with an eight foot
RISE Six more inches of water, and the
water works would have to be abandoned.
Wheat, oats, fruit and cotton are badly dam
aged.
The loss can hardly be computed, but con-
servative estimates placed it as high as S2,-
000, 900. There was some fear for the little
villages along the Trinity, above Fort
Worth.

How Rockets are Made,

! Rockets are made for three purposes:
for signaling; for decorations or celsbra.
tions, or as projectiles in war. For sig-
nails, the charge consists of twelve parts
Of inter, two of sulphur, and three Of
charcoal. The ornamental, or decorai
tive, rocket is the one we see used on the
Fourth of July, and the composition Of
which it is made comprises 122 parts Of
mealed or finely pulverized powder,
eighty of inter, forty of sulphur and forty
OF cast iron filings. 4. s
The main part of the rocket is case,
made by rolling stout paper, covered on
one side with paste, around wooden
form, at the same time applying t,onsid-
erable pressure. The end is then sschoked, y
or brought tightly together, with twine.
The paper case thus made is next
placed in copper mold, so that conicaE
copper spindle will pass up through the
choke, and the composition is them
poured in and packed by blows of a mallet
on O copper drift or packing tool madeto5
fit over the spindle. The top of the case.
is now closed with layer of moist
plaster-of-paris one inch thick, perfos
rated with small hole for the passage Of
the fame to the upper part, or 'pot. e
The pot is formed Of another paper CYL
inder slipped over and pasted to the top
of the case and surmounted by q paper
cone filed with tow. The decorations
are placed in the pot and are scattered
through the air when the fame, having
passed through the aperture of the plaster,
reaches small charge of mealed powder.
placed in the pot. The stick is q piece
of pine wood, tapering, and about nine
times the length of the rocket. It is to-
guide the rocket in its fight. The deco.
rations in the pot may be s'stars," tsser-5
pents," "marrons. "gold RAIN" and so
on. "Marrons" are small paper shells
filed with grained powder and pinned
with quick match. "Serpents" are small
cases about ! inch in diameter in which
is q composition of three parts inter,
three sulphur, sixteen meal powder, i
charcoal. This composition is driven inis
the case, the top of which is closed by
plaster-of-paris, having small aperture
through which passes piece of quick--l:
match.-S. Nicholas. !.

GREAT RIOT IN DULUTH.
Several Strikers Killed and Sixteen
Policemen Wounded.

Several Strikers Killed and Sixteen
Policemen Wounded.
A deadly combat occurred at Duluth,
Mimi, between the police and 1900 strikers
who had been oct of work for a week.
A number of laborers employed by
the gas and water companies were
at work in trench at Seven
under police protection, when the mob Of
$4,000 men charged upon them. The police
made their wards lay down in the trench,
and the little band of thirty bluecoats,
led by Captain Mclaughlin, charged on the
rioters. They were halted by a shower of mis-
siles, and several Of tho policemen were
knocked down only to rise again.
Drawing their revolvers the police ad-
vanced steadily, when one of tho ringleaders
Of the rioters fired his revolver. This was
followed by a voley, from the strikers
Shotguns Winchesters, reyolvers, all
added to the list of dead and wounded. The
mob fell back from the open street and took
up sheltered position behind buildings and
kept up their fusillade.
Governor Merriam had placed the militia
ut tho call of Mayor Sutphin, and the danger
signal was agreed upon. Suddenly the deep
tolred whistle of Elevator E sounded the fire
alarm (the agreed signaD, and thirty minutes
Inter Company K dashed on the doublequick
down the streets.
Just before tho soldiers arrived the Fire
Department was on hand and coupled several
lines of hose on the hydrants ready to turntho
water on the mob. The military and police
cleared the streets and the first battle was
over.
One man, George Costin, was killed, but
IL I1I
expected; the number of wounded was csti-
mated at twenty-five.
Plate-glass window are perforated, signs
Clipped, and plastering riddled. Two hats
full Of empty thirty elght-cahbre shells we're
where one gang Of strikers stood,
and q low estimate places the num-
ber Of shots fired at 1900. The first shot was
heard at 4:20 p. II and the last at 5:20 Tho
police force suffered more severely than was
at first supposed, and at least sixteen police
men were hit by bullets.
