A very game fight took place last night
at Brownies Comique between ex-police-
man George Green of this city and Harry
Steward of San Francisco 1t was slog-
ging match from the beginning to the fin-
ish, the contestants wasting no time in
sparring. 1t was no hippodrome. and
those who love to see square fight were
delighted.
In the first round the ex-policeman had
a little the best of it, both men pummeling
each other severely.
The second round was genuine slog,
aud the old time sports said they never
witnessed such punishment before in their
lives. Stewart drew the first blood, and
both men were well winded when time
was called.
In the third round the ex-policeman dis
abled his right arm Just before time was
closed, and his hackers began to hedge.
In the fourth round Stewart had every
thing his own way and Green was knocked
out. The fight only lasted twenty minutes,
and is said to be one of the best g mills
ever witnessed on the Coast.

nests, and above the table, suspended from
the ceiling by broad bands of ribbon, was
large ring, covered with leaves and ferns.

branches as well as the classics studies, in
Guiding bookkeeping. stenography, etc Mr..
Bsir bridge is a thorough and accomplished

When he first open his school the attend
snce was quite small, many predicted that
the Professor would have what. in plain
English, is called uphill work" to build
up school, owing to the fact that the field
seemed viii occupied This gave him no
concern whatever, he opened his school as
if there were none in the State. The pres

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
STILL WITH US.
A Man Stood Up Within Two Blocks OF
the "Record-UnIon" ONCE.

Man Stood Up Within Two Blocks of
the Record Union" Office.
About 10 o'clock last night John Crowley
was walking from TO street, on the east
side of Fourth. When opposite to the
alley he saw two men standing close To-
gether, apparently engrossed in friendly
conversation, when one of them stopped
him by saying, Partner, have you got a
ma'ch?p Crowley stopped and began feel
ing in his vest pocket for the lucifer, when
both of the men stepped up to him. He
failed to find a match, and expressed his
regrets. Have you any moneys" was the
next question. Il have none" replied
Crowley; but his answer was hardly made
his face, and the other was going through
his pockets in regular garroters' style. In
the hip pocket OF his pantaloons they found
81 90, which they appropriated.
This is as he related the matter at the po-
lice station. He is a fine looking young
man, who says he has only been in Sacra-
mento a few days, coming here from Los
Angeles. He rooms over the Postoffice.
He said he did not care SO much for the
money he lost, as he desired to catch the
robbers. He knows them by sight, having
v.
After relating the affair at the station he
started out with the officers to capture the
robbers.
An attempted burglary. which has not
been reported, is that of man who tried
to effect an entrance to the bedroom of S.
S. Beede about o'clock in the morning.
Mrs. Beede screamed and the burglar beat
a hasty retreat. Another house near by
was burglarized the same night, and no
doubt by the same thief.
A woman was robbed of her pocketbook
near the corner of ] and Eighth street
night before last. The highwayman
snatched it from her hand, but only gained
small amount for his effort.
On Thursday evening the theft through
making change was attempted upon the
Japanese bazaar on street, between Eighth
and Ninth. A tough looking customer
came into the store and purchased some
article for 10 cents and handed out $40
gold piece. When the clerk paid back S.
gold piece and 81 80 in change, he COM
planned for having to accept so much sill
YER" The tough was unable to say how
change could be made in more acceptable
way, or what different he expected when
he made the purchase, but he remarked
that if he had to be paid that
much silver he would not take the
article purchased and handed it back. At
the same time he laid down the silcer he
had received excepting the S. gold piece),
and demanded back his $40 piece The
Monaghan clerk asked for the S. piece in
addition to the silver, and the tough de-
MED that he had received anything but the
silver, and finally left the store quickly as
if afraid of being arrested. In his hasty
departure he accidentally dropped the S.
coin, and the clerk Immediately caught it
up and saved himself from loss.
Merchants and all persons need to exer.
else the utmost vigilance against gamblers,
burglars and thieves of all kinds so long
as the present horde of criminals infest the

There are los people in the company; they

OF January 18th speaks in commendatory
terms, saying: There are no great artists
among the principals of the company,
neither is there one that is not above the
average 1t adds that the company adds
no local supers to its force, but carries a
well-trained and excellently- drilled and
large chorus, the voices being strong and
good. OF the piece, ii says that THE
Kings Fool has a plot of absorbing inter-
est, and that the music is fresh and charac-
terized by strength and purify not usual
with comic opera companies of recent
times. That the music is above the
catchy order, but that general excellence
peryades it all. With the company is the
troupe of Viennese lady fencers, and of
them the same paper says: About the
fencing of these ladies, their first appear
ance leads the audience to expect some
thing unusual. In this they are not disap-
pointed. Theirs is no work of novices, but
training is visible in every motion, and the
pretty Austrians win the hearty common
dation of all who witness their work.

Gerard g. Tyrrell, permanent Secretary
OF the State Board of Health, in his report
for the month Of January says Reports
of mortality received from sixty-six cities
and towns. with an estimated population of
700, $50, give the number of deaths as 992,
being percentage of 14l per thousand in
the month, or an annual death rate of
1892, which is an increased percentage
over the mortality of several months pre-
yious. The increased deaths from diseases
of the respiratory organs will, in meas
ure, account for the increase deaths from
zymotic disease being rather below the
usual average.
