FEMALE FIGHTERS.
Terrible Battle Between TWO
Rival Establishments.

Rival establishments.
Ga Tuesday afternoon, between
4 ani 3 O'clock. there was iivel,
battle bette cen honse known as
Ne. ! and the inmates OF the Old
! Turner house in the rear. Two in.
mates OF the rear house got into a
squabhle with No. | and the five
went into the street to settle the
matter.
Witnesses to the fracas say that
it was the Iiveliest of the kind ever
seen in Carson for years. he com
batants became so mixed up that it
was i'm apostolic to distinguish any
individual from the balance.
1t Was just confused mingling

embroidered drapery and silk stock

spectators say that the Turner
house girls BACKED the eyes of the
other three from No. l and van
pushed them by dint OF superior
science. Some of their left hand
blows would have Done credit to the
nNonpariel" or Belfast Solder"
The beaten women acknowledge de-
teat by retiring to their establish
ment to wash up and change their
clothes which was badly bedraggled.
Yesterday afternoon there was
another Sight, this time between
two colorsd females who act in the
capacity of chambermaids in the
respective houses. The one in the
rear however, come cut and twitted
the other on the defeat of the pre-
vious day.
This led to some language Of a
highly florid character, aud the No.
l chambermaid walked into the |
street and snorted forth her chal-
lenge to battle. The othet came to |
time and there was a lively fsticuff. |
Fighting at long range not suiting |
either, they closed in catchas-
catch can and finally No | downed
her antagonist and hammered her
about the head and face, asking her
to quit.
"Does you holler 'nuff?" she
would shout as she sent in half
dozen blows.
"No doan boiler huff, you black
wench."
This dialogue was kept up until
he white inmates came out and
separated the two. The vanquished
woman left her hat and cloak on the
ground and the other sigpified her
lisapproval by dancing on it for
everal minutes.
Then a woman came out OF No.
n a Mickado costume and led her
A with a sound lecture on her mis-
BEHAVIOR.
Hostilities are expected to be re-
umsd at any time, with legal suits

Mrs. Par1ous Not Allowed to Lecture

CHICAGO, dec. 26.-Hand bills were
widely distributed to-day, announcing
that Mrs. Lucy Parsons, the wife of
the executed anarshist, would lecture
in Waverly hall tonight. One of the
bills was handed TO Chief of Police
Hubbard, who sent Lieutenant Laugh
lin to Mr.. Laurie, the proprietor of the
hall. with Instructions to order him
not to open the place. MIR. Laurie
was not satisfied with the message and
called Immediately on the chief. II
shall send an officer to you tonight"
said the chief to Mr.. Laurie, who
will demand the key of the hall from
you, he will then station IA policeman
at the door who will forbid admission
to the hall. You are perfectly help
less in the matter and any response
bility there is will he on the police"
The wording of the subject of the
lecture was a triiie ambiguous,
in that it might include any or all
phases of anarchy and socialism. There
was no doubt in the minds of the po-
lice that Mrs. Parsons intended to say
something to cause her arrest. Said
Chief Hubbard: MRS. Parsons can
advertise herself all she pleases, but
we will not help her to do it. We have
private information that she intended
to make voluntary anarchist har-
rangue and then we would have been
compelled to arrest her, and you can be
sure that it would have been magnified
in every way by the anarchists in argu-
ment of their injunction suit to-mor-
row, and the attempted lecture was
simply for effect. 1t is well known
that Mrs. Parsons cannot refrain from
talking of anarchy if she gets chance
and we viii not experiment with hen
further. She simply cannot speak in
Chicago.

The Juneau tAlaskal Free Press says
that the statements made by Mrs.
Voorhees, in regard to the abuse of ma
tive women and girls in Alaska are alb
solutelY false in every particular. and
denying al her statements. 1t SAYS:
The civilized people in the wilds of
Alaska are as refined and advanced as
all good citizens of the United States
should be, and that none of the out
RACES attributed to them bave ever oc-
CURED within the knowledge or the
Oldest inhabitant. The so-calIed low
est animal passions of the rough males
do not as a rule show themselves,
as they are naturally subdued
by hard work and the want of liquor to
indulge them. The same argument
applies to the low animal passions of
hunters and trappers, who find no time
for hunting and trapping Indians. :"
Governor Swineford is busily engaged
at Sitka, writing his annual report of
Alaska. Its length will be about the
same as last year. The governor re-
view of mining operations shows that
a substantial work is being done in the
way of improvements, and the pros
poets for the development of several
valuable properties are very bright.

Explanations of no Avail.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 27.-The
brigantine Josefa which arrived at this
point Tuesday from Montego, Jamaica,
that vessel at the hands of
the Spanish government, while dis
charging cargo on her outward trip
from New York to Arroyo, Porto Rico.
The Spanish custom officials discovered
that twenty packages of corn starch
which were marked on the vessels man
ifesto were missing. After extended
search the goods could not be found
and the vessel was seized by the Span
isd authorities, who held her until fine
of 81 400 was paid, although the value
of the goods i'll question did not ex-
coed twenty dollars. The master
and crew were forced to suffer
many indignities at the hands of the
governor and officials acting under his
authority. The authorities offered to
settle the matter if the captain of
the vessel could satisfactorily explain
the whereabout of the missing pack
age. After the fine had been paid 1t
was ascertained that the missing goods
were delivered by mistake on board
the ship JOsepheus, which lay next to
| the JoSefa in New York, but were
placed on the Josefa man.
ifest Explanations were made
to the Spanish authorities and the
return of the fine was requested
butt was refused and the vessel left for
this city. James Bratt of New York,
managing owner of the .Josefa, has
fled a complaint against the Spanish
government with Secretary Bayard,
and asked that his immediate atten-
ton shall be given to the matter 1.
will be urged that the war ships Ga
| lena and Y antic shall be ordered tC
continue their cruise to Porto Rico
and summarily secure redress for the
imposition suffered by the Josefa.

kidnapping, made their escape from
the Castle del Principe FORT. a
month ago have just murdered the
detective who was after them.

A Brutal PhHnioian.

SEsCA MORA Mich, Dec. 26.-The Mir
ror gives the details of horrible affair
just made public. DIR. w. w. Mulliken
has been practicing medicine here for
many years, and it transpires that dur
ing nearly all that time he has been de-
bauching children, many of them as
young as ten years. Several times the
fact of his infamy was made known to
the parents Of the victims, but they
after threatening the wretch would let
the matter drop to prevent scandal.
Last February two little school children
quarreled and one accused the other of
frequenting DIR. Mulliken's office for
immoral purposes, and an attempt was
made to use this against Mulliken, but
tangible evidence could not be pro-
cured. In June last a similar experi.
ence was had, but on Thanksgiving
day the fences in the vicinity of Multi
ken's Office contained a number of seri.
ODs charges against the physician and
the people awakened to the fact that
something must be done. An investi
cation followed. and the evidence
against Mulliken was of so pronounced
y character that the accused was ar
rested and put under 81 900 bonds fol

men will be called upon to settle. II i,

The 0glIVie Expedition Ramblisg IN the Extreme
Northwest Territory.
EDMONTON, n. w. T., Dec. %. -
William OgilVie, who has been engaged
by the government since 1887 In explor-
ing extreme Northwestern Canada,
has arrived at Edgerton via La Cla-
biche and Victoria. The route puF-
sued by the party was from the Pacific
coast up Chilkal Inlet by steamer, over
the Taing pass to Lake Lyndeman on
the Lewis river, the main branch of the
Yukon, down the river in canoes to the
international boundary lines. 1t has
always been supposed that the Lewis
was the main stream of the Yukon, but
the Haatilenques, which joins the Lew
is from the east about 300 miles from
the coast is the main stream proper.
The party went into camp on the Yu-
kOn near the international boundary in
the latter part Of September The
greatest cold was in February when the
thermometer registered ffty-seven de-
grees below zero. The camp was struck
in March, when they descended the
Yukon thirty-fve miles TO the head wa
tiers of the Porcupine river, another
of the main branches of the
Yukon. The pass is $500 feet above
the sea level. The POrcupine joined
the main river at old Fort Yukon in
Alaska. The porcupine was decended
to its confluence with the Lewis river
coming from the east. This was as
cended to pass in the Rockies about
eight and half miles long with moth
ing to prevent a first class raiload
being built through it. From the
east end or the pass small mountain
stream was followed to its junction
with the Peel river flowing into the
Mackenzie. On this stream coal of
good quality and an abundant outerop
of asbestos were seen. The distance
from the foot of the Rockies to where
they entered the Peel was seventeen
miles in straight line.
The total distance travelled from the
Yukon at the boundary of the Peel riv-
er was 3lS miles, crossing two noun
tain ranges. McConnell's geological
survey party was met at the Peel. The
ascent of the Mackenzie was begun
June 18th and the survey of the Peace
and Athabasca rivers made by Ogilvie
in 1886, a distance of / AIT miles. The
| only real obstacle to navigation was
| the rapids at Fort Smith. Wheat and
barley are grown every summer at Fort
Providence. A sample wheat grown
there was brought out and makes good
flour. Mining is carried on on the Yu
kon and tributaries. and pays during
three months of the year. Forty Mile
creek, the seat of the gold excitement
of 1887, unites with the Yukon about
forty-one miles from the boundary
Twenty-three miles of this creek is il

his guilt, he accused William Hopkins
of instigating him to the crime and
says Hopkins met him on the street
and received the money, and day or
two afterward gave him money
at the Latomia race track all but
81 500. 1t was planned that they should
both go to Europe, but Hopkins only
went as far as New York, where he
changed his mind. 1t is singular that
Tinker's whereabouts were discovered
