1ahs Enfant Terrible.


A lady from Chicago was visiting
the family, and so it happened, owing
to a chapter of accidents, that the
lady of the house met her guest for
the first time at the dinner table. The
hostess is partial to powder, and in
the evening increases her natural pal
Tor with its assistance. After the con-
ventional embrace the lady from Chi
cago said:-"You must have had a
very firing day, Mrs. Blank"
Yes, indeed, | have, dear, and I
feel very fatigued.n
'sYes-I never saw You look so pale

FOUGHT 10 A DRAW.
Mccarthy and Dixon Quit Even in III
SEVENTEEN Round.

Mccarthy and Dixon Quit Even in the
S~eventieth Round.
Cal McCarthy's confidence and conces-
sion lost him the battle in Boston last
night. It ended in a draw, but Mccarthy
would have won undoubtedly had skin
gloves been used.
1t was with these that he had sent down
the clever fighters between him and the
champions goal, and he erred in yielding
and establishing a precedent by allowing
Dixon to dictate the kind of gloves to be
used.
Mccarthy and his hacker evidently CON
cluded that the demand of Dixon for q
softer glove was q display of cowardice
and an admission that the darkey did not
like to be hit hard, and expected to win
on the homeopathic plan by numerous
doses of mid punching.
This was the darkey's method of win
ming 1t, and he came precious near doing
1T. They thought that Cal had superb
staying qualities and excelled Dixon in
that respect. They made a mistake.
Dixon is Calls equal in this regard and
the reports of the meeting would indicate
that he is a shade better.
Had the skin gloves been used and the
~allopathic treatment resorted TO-, Cal
would ave had the fight. He did the
rushing and punlmelled the darky in a
lively style at the start, but the soft
gloves reduced the effect of the blows
and Mccarthy was exhausted before he
had inflicted punishment enough to have
his opponent.
Dixon rallied and had the best of it for
several rounds. In fact he would have
had Mccarthy out had not the shrewd
Jersey City man, who is a clever general
IN the ring, dropped to avoid punish
ment and thus avedh himself. Then he
recovered, but not sufficiently to do effec-
tive work, and both were so thoroughly
worn out that at the end of the SEVENTEEN
round the fight was declared a draw, u
Dixon held one-half of the championship.
Now Dixon knows Cal's style of fight
ing, and will avoid that rushing which
surprised him III the opening rounds.
They quit weak and badly battered, but
will meet again, it is said, this evening,
as a dispatch from Boston has it that the
referee has ordered hat they must face
each other within twenty-four hours.
A report has it that Cal will be a veal
man when he steps into the ropes n
Dixon has recovered and is in good shape.
Another report from the Hub is that
Dixon has u broken rib, and will not be
able to last long, and 1t is doubtful that
he will the ring tonight.
Cal did all the fighting for three rounds
and had the best of it in the next seven
rounds. In the eleventh Dixon revived
and planted several heavy blows that
sent Cal to his corner decidedly ogG
Dixon had the advantage for five rounds
In the seventeenth they fought evenly
and from that round to the SEVENTEEN the
battle was even. The principals were so
weak hat the seconds agreed to call 1t a
draw.

The gross debt of counties has decreased
since 1870, but increased since 1880. Throwing
tables aside, it is found that the middle states
show a decrease of debt of per cent, the
southern states an increase Of Is per cent and
the western states an increase Of 81 per cent
The increase of county debt in the west lover
S27,O0O,0OO) is easily applicable by the sudden
growth of that region requiring or seeming to
require an increase in county expenditure. 1t
ought to be observed that while the gross debt
OF counties, so far as reported, is S145, 693 SiO
the net debt after deducting the sinking fund,
cash in treasury and total available resources
is only S115.34i, G5i, with an annual interest
charge of S7,3lS,374. 1t is expected that the
increase in local indebtedness will be counter
balanced by the decrease in state indebtedness
and that the final showing will DC gratifying in
view of the rapid progress of the country in
wealth and population.

The information that Commissioner L. G..
Hine has sent in his resignation to the Pres-
dent will cause regret in the community. Mr..
Hlne was specially fitted for the responsible
and exacting position Of Commissioner by his
large acquaintance with District affairs,
his knowledge Of District law. and the
tact and unfailing good temper he
showed in his intercourse with the public.
II is understood that the reason assigned for
his resignation in his letter to the President
was the Importance of having entire harmony
exist between the Commissioners. This prob
ably refers TO the friction that has existed for
some time between the civil and engineering
departments Of the District government The
nature Of this conflict of jurisdiction is set forth
In substantially the following statement sent to
Congress by the civil Commissioners for the &C
ton Of that body:
''Inasmuch as the law does not assign special
duties to the Engineer Commissioner, except
ing as to the water department, which
Is also under control OF the board of Com
missioners, and the duties which assigned
70 the two officers OF the engineer corps de-
tailed to assist him involve the expenditure of
nearly all the funds about which dispute can
probably arise as to the validity of the ex-
penditure, it seems but right that said assist
ants should be assigned as assistants to the
Commissioners, instead of to one Commissioner
only. The majority of Commissioners have
now no right to call upon said assistants even
for information, and can give them no direc-
tiOns concerning District work. The incon-
venience of this condition is frequently very
great. Its absurdity is evident in the light of
the fact that theCommissioners, appointed from
civil life, alone, give bonds for the legal ex-
penditure of all appropriations for District pur-
poses"
The House District committee have had this
measure before them for some time and have
taken no action, and there seems to be no prob
ability that they will do so this session. 1t is
greatly to be regretted that the failure Of Con-
gress to pass this or some measure defining the
lines Of Jurisdiction Of different District Off
cials should result in the loss of SO acceptable
Commissioner as Mr.. Hlne.
