BosToN. April ga stubborn glove
contest occurred tonight at the rooms OF
the Bay State club between Cal"
Mccarthy of New York and Johnny
Murphy of Boston, for trophies valued
at $500 and 5000 respectfully. From the
start Mccarthy forced the fighting, but
Murphy lsid in wait for him and returned
blows with interest. In the first round
there was avage work and Murphy twice
knocked his opponent to the floor. The
last blow broke the bone in Murphy's
forearm, but did not deter him from con.
tinuing the fight. For three more rounds
Murphy bested MCCARTHY, using only the
right hand. In the third round he
knocked Mccarthy down again and
in the fourth round Murphy's second
absolutely refused to allow him to continue
and the fight was accordingly awarded to

Monkeys and Snakes.

1t is n curious fact that MONKEYS,
who have IN intense instructive dread
of snakes, would seem from expert
ments in geological gardens to be
strangely attracted to them. An Amer
lean observer, A. e. Brown, coiled a
dead snake in a newspaper, so as to be
easily capable of coming loose, and
set it on the floor of a cage containing
a great variety of monkeys. 1t was
instantly carried off by a leading
spirit, but in a few seconds the D
became unfolded and the snake was ex-
posed. The monkey instantly dropped
it and went away, but with a constant
look behind. The other monkeys, per-
c%eiving the snake, approached step by
step and formed a circle around it six
or eight feet in diameter. None APP
preached it except one Macaque, who
cautiously made some snatches at the
paper. AT this moment a string which
had been attached to the snakes tail
was gently pulled; the monkeys fed
precipitately, with great chattering
and screaming. Some time after they
gradually returned to their former
position, and they continued this pro-
cedure for some hours, showing both
intolerable fear and a strange attrac-
tion.-Murray's Magazine.

brother Of Mrs. McFadden, who had for
some time been ailing, died Of consumption
Soon after his death, his sister bore her
tenth child, and though the infan. appeared

one of whom are girls. and whose ages
range from eighteen to four are left without

tuition. At present the children can scarcely
be kept in the house as they declare that it
is i'll fated, and unless they leave it immedi-
ately other deaths will occur.
