A wa.herwoman.a Fortuns.

There is considerable stir among a number
or good ladies, who are now looking about
for washerwoman. 1t came about in this
way; Mrs. Kelly, woman about So years
old, living in the rear of George W. Stoutis
residence, on North Meridian street, has been
earning her livelihood by washing. She is q
hard working woman, member of the First
Baptist church
She says that about ten years ago, upon the
death of her father, she inherited piece of
property in st. Louis, upon which there was
a mortgage of $4,000. For this property she
was offered $4,000, which she refused to
take, her friends advising her that it was
worth more. She got no income from it, but
kept on washing, having found renter, to
whom she leased the house and lot for $50 a
month, and arranged that all in excess of
taxes and repairs was to be applied upon the
mortgage
1t was a temptation for her to take $4,000.
but she resisted, continued at work, and the
other day she received notice that the last
payment had been made, and the property,
which is in the heart of the city, was free OF
debt and all her own, being valued at nearly
1000. Later came news of the death of
brother in California, who left her a fortune
of $4,000 1t is said she arranged with st.
Louis man, for fee of 81 900, to go to Cali
fornia and make full settlement; that he re.
turned with 10000 in approved securities,
chiefly United States bonds, but that so, 600
more is coming to her, which will require her
personal presence to make proper settlement.
The ladies lose a good washerwoman, but
Mrs Kelly gains 100000. - Indianapolis

Good Bye Charlie"

Las, Wednesday DIR. Charles Box took his
departure for the seaport Of Hawthorne.
For the past month or more Charlie has been
working on the wood drive, and his many
friends took it upon themselves to shove him
out in good style. They therefore formed a
procession TO escort the DR.. TO the train.
At the head OF the procession was the Brass
Band, which was constituted Of Prof. ALI
wind, the tapeworm charmer, and his cornet.
Following the barouche that carried the
band came White Wings Parker, TIE color
bearer, mounted on an elephant that was re-
Gently caught in the jungles on the Carson
River near Empire. Box, Shorty and Calvin
followed the elephant in a chariot Of IRE.
Next came Big Alec, the Sampson OF nine
feenth century, carrying a Ak flag pole 40
feet long to which was attached the hmeri-
can flag painted in SIX different Languages.
Banner bearers Cahill and Boston cams pext
and on the banner was inscribed a touching
lin lamp black and OILY farewell TO Bro.ker
Box. "Colofado" and Doyle, the scraplAs,
followed the banner SO that The bottle OF
whisky that was painted on 1t would not get
away. The balance OF the wood gang
brought up the rear Frank Ambrose acted
as Marshal Of the Day and wore solid sill
yer star four inches in diameter that was
cast at the brick yard especially for this &C.
casion. The points OF the star come pretty
near putting out the eyes of several passers-
by and also came near disembowellng Frank,
while White Wings and the elephant when
nearly stampeded every time the suns rays
struck the glittenng thing and glanced into
their eyes. AS the procession passed the
engine house McMartin played the Dead
March on the chime OF bells in the cupola
AT the depot Shorty delivered stirring ad-
dress, thanking Brother Box in behalf OF the
Calathumpian Club (6oI) for the many fav-
ors conferred on the Club, and bidding HIM
kindly farewell and wishing him pleasant
tnp. The banner was nailed to the baggage
car, and after drink Of cold tea all around
the train was allowed 10 pull out.

showed his Agility.

Last Monday noon Dennis Mahoney, a
blesr- eyed bum who has followed the wood
drive for a few weeks, only working day
or so a, sine to keep himself fall Of whis-
ky, climbed upon the top of the bridge and
attempted TO jump down into wagon as it
vas crossing the bridge. He miscalculated
the distance and fell on the bridge floor, and
let the wagon run over his foot, and is now
being cared for at the county hospital.
Mahoney is the son OF the man who murder
ed his wife in Six-mile Canyon some years
ago, and it is believed by many that he and
his father were the ones who killed old man
Pollock and his wife some time before Ma
honey killed his wife. He is an eyesore to
respectable people and it is unfortunate that
he did no, break his neck in his endeavors to
show his agility last Monday.

THE PRIZE FIGHT.
A Ratt1lng scrap" OF 80 Rounds I'm
der London Prixe Ring Rules.

Last Sunday evening it was whispered
about town that q slogging match was to
take place across the river between two
middle weight scrappers who have been
travelling with the wood gang for the past few
weeks and occasionally pitching wood for
eaercise. The names Of the men are Billy
Doyle, Of Arizona, and Geo. Reed, better
known a. the colorado Sport, OF Denver.
The preliminares were arranged strictly on
the q. I. and the fight was to take place at 9
O'Clock sharp. ATIMEs reporter caught on
and went over to report proceeding. Arriv-
ing At the ring he found the principals and
their seconds on the grounds. A large bon
FIRE was burning brightly and around the
ring was a crowd Of about one hundred peo-
pie in which was noticed quite a number OF
the Dayton ''Four Hundred" who, after at
tending church that evening, had run them
selves out Of wind to get 10 the scrapping
ground on time. At precisely 9 o'clock the
men stepped into the ring. Reed was Sec
onded BY Andy Horn. while Chss. Box act
ed as second for Doyle. Gil. Bennett was
chosen as Referee and Patsy Duffy time
keeper. and the music began. "Colorado"
wore tights and light shoes while Doyle had
on his everyday clothes and heavy pair Of
brogans.
In the FIRST round there were some heavy
blows delivered. Colorado was lighter on
his feet than Doyle and he landed heavily
on Doyle's chest and ribs. Doyle got in
one or two heavy blows and they cl,nched,
Doyle being thrown. In the second round
Colorado did the most Of the Furnishing, and
showed more science than did his antagonist.
10 the third round Doyle made a rush and
knocked Colorado down. This was The first
knock-down. In the fourth Colorado came
up smiling and did some good work. and in
the 9Th he knocked Doyle down. After this
both nen fought for wind for several rounds,
and Colorado would clinch and throw Doyle
every time. Up to 3sth or goth round this
n all the work that was done and Colorado
bad pretty we'll winded himself by wrestling
Doyle now began to get in some short jabbing
blows on Colorado's ribs and this helped to
Wind him. Both men seemed to be fresh in
the 4sth round, however, and they fought for
blood. Doyle had got his second wind and
was more confident, but was careless and got
several hard. blows on the chin and ribs.
Colorado seemed to be winded from the
work he had done, and, contrary to expecta-
tons, in the s6h round said he would igh,
no more. He was not yet whipped but his
second threw up the sponge. A collection
amounting to something like $40 was taken
up and given to the winner. II was a rat
ting good fight II it was not as scientific as
the one fought by Sullivan and Kilrain.
