Eighteenth round-Mac, although suffering.
went over in his antagonists corner, where all
the fighting had been, and forced matters, but
Northedge was careful and avoided him. Sharp
short-arm fighting followed. Mcmillan, in get
ting away, slipped. and Northedge sent his
right with terrific force into his bread basket
and cross-countered on his jaw as he went
down. Hes gone" shouted the crowd The
referee took out his watch and Mac laid there
while the ten seconds licked by. ''Northedge
wins, shouted the referee, but the pugilists
couldn't hear him, and Mac puckily rose only
to be knocked down again by Northedge The
crowd then burst into the ring and Northedge
was carried away on the shoulders of his
friends, while Mac sat in his corner completely
done.
So ended the best fight that has taken place
around Washington in recent years.
Had Mac rushed his man in the early
stage Of the fight he would have undoubt-
ediSwon, for Ncrthedge Was whipped up TO
tho eleventh round HIS change of tactics
was all that saved him. Mac could not guard
his right. and Northedge landed when he liked
Mac shows little or no signs Of punishment.
while Northedge was badly used up.
The night lasted one hour aud eighteen min
utes, and was Witnessed by about 400 men.

ing the regiment voted upon the same

and the Scriven County Troop.
Col. Gordon expects to get the returns
from the different companies tomorrow.
The returns will then be consolidated and
forwarded to the governor, who will COM
mission the officers and appoint board of
examiners, and set time and place for
! their examination. Doubtless the place of
examination will be here Several of the
members Of the governors staff reside here,
and it is more convenient for all members
to come here. After the officers have passed
| their examination, Col. Gordon will ask

geon, all with the rank of lieutenant; also a

TIE POLICE s1G,IAL SYSTEM.
Savannah Autht lritie Looking into
the Charlo Iston System

the Charleston System
An Improvement Is contemplated in the
system of commune. ati IN among the police
on duty with each ott.es and with the police
headquarters Mayor s 'hwarz, Alderman
Reid, and Detective Ia sch went over to
Charleston Yesterday Il investigate the
workings of the electric - stem IN operation
there. and are expected return tonight.
The visit is the result Of correspondence
with the Charleston poll ce department,
which promised the Savan nah authorities
in advance every facility for examining
the workings Of a system VIII len has proved
80 popular and effective tlles g. Under tne
Charleston system the policeTn an who MAKES
an arrest does not leave his oeat uhpFo-
tected every time be effects an arrest,
but the police headquarters are com
municated with. and patrol wagon
with as many officers as may be
required il sent out and the ? risoner hurried
in. the patrolman who made Vi arrest con
tinuing on duty. Not only is tn q beat not lett
unprotected, as here, but the pectacie so
common, OF drunken colort@ men ana
woman being dragged through he streets,
using the most profane and relA Ilslve Ian
guage, is obviated.
The relief is taken out in a was on on the
rounds and as one patrolnan Is relieved
another takes mis- place. and by hD time the
wagon has made Its ROUNDS
all the relief has cen put
on duty and the patroimen
relieved arc returned TO heafqua ters. In
the event that a Waterman wal { assist
ance a signal is sent in to headqua sers aud
reserve officer is dispatched to t he point
from which the call has been sent n. The
present policeman's whistle does no t always
bring assistance, and often not as soon as
necessary, serving to warn the su 81 'ected,
who often escape long before help al rlves.
1t is not known whether the syst 20 now
being considered will or viii not bring
about change in the ordinance re ducing
the number of sergeants, but in soms cities
a policeman is required to pull a OK at
stated periods in different localities o. his
beat, which is registered at police AZ ad-
quarters, and where this practice is foil owed
sergeants are not required to make ttelr
rounds to see if an officer is vigilaut.
1t is believed that with perfect 81 gIlal
system a much better patrol of the city CT N
be had compensating in some measure for
the small number of policemen for so lara o
an area as Savannah now embraces.
