The keOsh- Duncan Match.

Quite a number of Daytonites attended
the glove contest in Virginia City last Mon.
day evening between Keogh and Duncan.
The opera house was well filled with people
{. ON Carson, Reno and Virginia, and about
half past nine o'clock the fighters stepped
into the ring Keogh weighed ISs pounds
and Duncan was a trihe heavier, although
he was not as we'll built as his antagonist.
Bill Oliver acted as referee and Johnny
sweeney. of CaIson, as time. keeper. In
The first round both men led off carefully.
They finally got down to business and ex.
changed some powe rful blows. Keogh re
ccived the most punishment in this round
but he got in some heavy blows on the dat
keys wind box hat counted. In the second
.ound both men came up in determined
manner. The darkey led off and received
a heavy blow in the face. He then hit
keogh on the left arm a blow that made
him drop his arm to his side. The two men
then clinched and seemed to want to go at
each other in a rough and tumble. Owing
10 the over Jealous disposition of the referee
a misunderstanding arose and in moment
the ring was filled by outsiders, the seconds,
time keep and officers. and il looked for a
short time as if there would be a general
row. Quiet was finally restored as time was
called. In the third round the men came
up angry. No time was wasted They
struck hard but wild, and finally clinched
again, Keogh forcing Duncan against the
ropes. They broke, and Keo.h. at. reciv.
ing blow on The side, hit Duncan on The
neck and foored him, falling over him as he
mlss,d him with his left. Keogh was on
his feet in second, but the coon seemed
paralySed, and barely got up in time to save
decision. AS soon as he was on his feet
he was again knocked against the ropes. He
then said; ''lhai's good Ceog," but his sec
ond braced him up and tried TO shove him
INTO the ring He could not get away from
the ropes, however and Keosh battered him
in the head ill he sank 10 the floor and was
dragged to his corner. Keogh was then de
clared the winner of the $500 purse.

THE GRAPHOPHONE.
1t Causes Bushes 10 Mantle the
Checks of a Pretty Type. Writer.

Private Secretary Pearson OF Governor
Beavers office, Harrisburg, Pa, says the
E-.E,feaI Review, had curious and some.
what startling experience with the grapho.
phone.
He began to turn the crank and supposed
that he was about to cause the machine to
give out 10 the young lady typewriter mes.
sage which the Governor had talked into it
The evening previous. The young lady was
all attention, and the Private Secretary be.
gan solemnly TO turn the crank, which works
by a treadle. To his horror and intense en-.
barr assmeat Of The young lady the following
amofous tumble was given out with decided
emphasis:
"Now, don't, George. = There;
somebody will come. OF course love you.
There; somebody is really coming, and you
have mussed my hair all up. Please,
love, Pm SO afraid that some one viii o.n,a
in. and. besides. can't work this crank if
you insist upon kissing me all the time"
The stars represent sounds too familiar to
be mistaken. They were the smacking Of
lips and other sounds which accompany the
interchange of caresses between lovers.
1t was some little time before the matter
could be satisfactorily explained, either by
the young lady or MI. Pearson, who at FIRST
were disposed to imagine that somebody had
been playing practical joke upon Them.
The matter was finally slra;ghtene,! out, how
ever, when the executive clerk came around,
and, upon hearing Of the incident, laughed
heartily. He had on the evening before been
showing bride and groom about the execu-
tive department, and, being called away q
few minutes, had left them in the Private
Sccretary's room to amuse themselves with
the graphophone while he attended to the
business which called him away.

day contained the following: Several months

City, and found a lucrative position. 1t
seems that he left girl behind him. prom
Using to return. Here, however, he found a
new girl, and there was a prospect of her
usurpng the place which the Virginia girl
thought was only hers. The Comstocker
got word Of what was going on, and she
came here last night with FIRE in her eye and
pistol in her pocket. The young man has
concluded to apply for marriage license,
as he liked her the better anyway. The
dark.eyed Truckee lass, however, don't
want it that way, and the young man is in
an embarrassing position. Still he has the
reputation of being honorable and the pros.

AMURDERER's JEOPARDY.


A curious Interpretation of the law was
offered in the Supreme Court Of California
his week by counsel for w. l. c. Elliott,
WHO has been convicted in Inyo county Of
the murder Of John P. White. The first
ground stated in support Of. the appeal was
that Elliott was unable 10 secure counsel at
the preliminary examination, for the reason
that all the lawyers in the county were en-.
gagged in the prosecution. TWAS also urged
that everybody in Inyo, including all the
officials were either prejudiced against de-
PENDENT or afraid TO say word in his behalf.
But the most remarkable Of the reasons set
forth by Elliott's counsel was that the com.
lain date Elliott stabbed and cut White,
from which siatbing and cutting White died
bat that such statement did not show that
While died from the cutting by Elliott.
Counsel argued bis point in all seriousness.
In other words, Elliott stabbed him and he
died forthwith, but in the eye Of the law

defendant killed White at all.
Interest in the tiial ian high in Inyo dur
ing the trial Of Elliott. Ladies filled every

auditors into the corridors. They applauded
every point scored by the prosecution and

Elliott's attorney is not mistaken, the de

PARKER DIVORCE CASE.
Judge Rising Grants a DivOrce-The
Mother Retains the Children.

The case of Parker VS.. Parker came up be
fore Judge Rising last Monday. f. NJ. Huff
aker, of Virginia City, appeared for James
Parker, defendant, and M. C. Tilden, for
plaintiff, Some time ago Mrs. Parker bro aght
suit for divorce against James Parker, her
husband, on the grounds Of desertion and
failure to provide. She also wanted the Gus
tody Of the children and alimony and coun
sci fees. Mr.. Parker, IT seems, was agreea
BILE to the divorce, Blu, did no, propose TO pay
almony nor any lawyers fees, and therefore
contested the matter
Parker was formerly engineer at the Como
Eureka mine, in Como. He is an engineer
by profession, and a good one. He and his
wife owned ranch in Mason Valley, which
according to his testimony was not very
profitable piece of property, although he
had put about IS, 900 into it. After leaving
Como he went to the ranch to live, but found
that it was impossible for him 10 make a
living for himself and family. He decided
to 60 TO Virginia City and secure employment
at his trade. He did this, but for some month.
was out Of work. Two years ago he and his
wife agreed TO separate. Since that time
Parker has been on the Comstock working a
! share of the time. But a few months age
his wife instituted proceedings for divorce.
She charged Parker with desertion and fail
uae to provide, and her evidence and that OF
her daughters was to the effect that Parker
had done very little to support his family.
Mr.. Parker had several witnesses from Vir
GINA City, business men, who testified that
in less than two years passed they had sold
to him over $500 worth of dry goods, boots
and shoes. groceries. ETC., which has been
shipped to his family in the Valley. Evi.
dence was also introduced claiming that
plaintiff had committed adultry with man
named Mitchell in Mason Valley. The Judge
took the matter under consid for a
short time, and as it was evident that there
could be no reconciliation, he gave the ranch
and the custody of the children to the mother,
but denied her alimony or counsel fees.
