ing His Fire EnRines.
The Alleghenians are patriots without any
doubt and they won't by any means allow their
public property to be disparaged without rea-
son. They are now after Chief Evans and his
fire engines, and If the Chief is as spirited and
patriotic as the Allegheny citizens. he viii put
up the cash to-day for very interesting con-
test A well-known gentleman from the city
across the river left the following statement
accompanied by a deposit Of $50, with the
sporting editor Of this paper last evening:
''Time and time again Chief Evans, of the
Pittsburg Fire Department. has praised his
engines, the Amoskeags, at the expense of
those in Allegheny City, the Silsbys. To-day
be is once more quoted as saying that the
Duquesne, No. 2, of Pittsburg, can throw water
further than any of ours in Allegheny, that is,
any of the Silsbys. Now, we mean to call the
veteran chief to time on this occasion and If he
half believes what he says he will try and make
good his boastings. 1 now put up $50 with
the sporting editor Of THE DISPATCH as
forfeit for a wager of $500 that he will find
Silsby engine in Allegheny that will throw
water further than the Duquesne engine.
will meet the Chief at The DISPATCH ONCE
any time that may be convenient to him or his
friends to arrange for the contest. It is to be
hoped that Chief Evans will come to the front
in this instance or in future refrain from max
ing statements that have no truth in them. AT
any rate, there is now an honest chance TO have
the question thoroughly settled"

A Pretty Illinois Girl Runs Away in Male
Attire.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, December 6.-Miss Jen.
ME Merrill was arrested at the Union depot
this morning for masquerading in male at
tire. She is young lady of extraordinary
beauty and of great refinement, and one who
would be least suspected of entertaining any
idea of indulging in romantic escapades.
She made neat-looking young man, and
when arrested was in company with another
girl. Both were taken in charge BY the
police matron. who supplied the young miss
with raiment becoming her sex.
Miss Merrill lives at Galesburg, ILL.,,
where she attends a seminary. Actuated
by some foolish impulse she escaped with
one of the pupils, assumed masculine at
tire and boarded the train for st. Louis.
At Monmouth, ILL.,, she was recognized
by friends while smoking cigarettes and
conversing with young men. Her father,
who is wealthy citizen of Galesburg, was
Immediately wired and he came to st. Louis
tonight and took 6is erring daughter home.
She is 16 years old.

You Can Only be Elected From Train In
Inhabited Places.


Inhabited Places.
MIDDLETowN, N. Y, December 1.-The
Supreme Court of the Fifth Judicial dis.
trict has just passed upon questions of great
interest to railroad travellers in the case ol
Hurlburt against the Rome, Watertown and
Ogdensburg Railroad Company. In this
case it was shown to the court and jury that
the plaintiff bought of the company at a re-
duced rate limited ticket specified to be
''Good for one continuous passage" from
Utica to Watertown. The plaintiff stopped
off the train at Remsen. and when he took a
subsequent train at that station to complete
the journey to Watertown the conductor re-
fused to honor the limited ticket and de-
manded the regular fare.
This the plaintiff declined to pay, where
upon the conductor put him off the train at
point in the woods distant from any rail-
road station or dwelling house. The
elected passenger brought suit against the
company for 81 900 damages for alleged un-
lawful exclusion from the train.
The court instructed the jury that when a
passenger purchases limited or continuous
railroad ticket, which is sold for less than
the regular fare, aud refuses or neglects to
comply with the conditions of the contract
attached to such ticket it is then lawful for
the conductor or other servant of the COM
pany to put him and his baggage off the
train; but the ejecting must be done with
out any unnecessary force and at or near one
of the company's regular stations, or an in
habited house, where the elected passenger
may find immediate help and shelter.
In the case in hand the company's servants
were justified in ejecting the plaintiff from
the train, but they erred in putting him off
at point distant from any station or dwell
ing, and the plaintiff was therefore entitled
to recover a verdict for reasonable damages
for the improper exercise of the compsny's
rights in the premises. Under these instruc-
tions the jury returned verdict for the
plaintiff for $3.50 damages and costs.

M'CAFFREY TO FARRELL.

DOmInlck Now Ready to Meet the Pitts.
burger Under Any Rules.
Evidently Dominick McCafrey has changed
his mind about not fighting Pat Farrell; at
least the following letter received by the writer
would indicate So The letter reads:
'If Pat Farrell. the Pittsburg boxer, wants
to fight Dominick McCaffrey, the latter will go
him, ana will be glad to get the chance. Dom
mick is out of the saloon business and it would
just suit him to go Pat TO a finish under any
rules and for any substantial stake at point
within 100 miles Of New York"
The letter was dated the Hoffman House,
New York, and signed by Ed Bradford, McCaf-
frey's friend and trainer. This looks like a
thorough-going business challenge, and nothing
now is left for Farrell but to accept 1t. He
cannot well refuse to meet man like Mccall
frey if he wants TO fight at all. However, Far
reli and his hackers are considering the matter
and they may come to definite conclusion TO-
day.
