ADesperate western Fight-Carrled From
the uar~

A Desperate Western Fight Carried From
the Ring.
CHICAGO, September 20.-James Hen
messy, white, and weighing 100 pounds,
defeated Harry Ray, a 14O-pound color
ed man, In thirteen rounds in a bare
knuckle fight.
The battle took place in q room on
West Madison street yesterday morn
ing. in the first round Hennessey land
ed q highlander on the colored mans
left optic, raising o gOOd-Sized lump.
Ray lost his head and rushed HenneSSy,
who avoided cleyerly. The colored man
would not be denied, and forced his man
against the wall.
When the men tOed the scratch for
the second round Rays left eye was
completely closed and blood was trick
ling from his left ear. They lost no
time in getting TO work, threw science
away and went at it sll around the
room. Hennessey showed up to the
best advantage. The third, fourth,
fifth and sixth rounds were a REPETITION
Of the second. Ray came up weak for
the seventh round, aud HenneSSey's
seconds advised him to 20 in and finish
his man. He sent his right over the
heart, then shot the left in she mouth,
then a half swing with the left landed
on Rays good right eye, which enraged
him and he made a wild rush for Hen
nessey, but was met with a straight
left-hander on the nose, scattering the
blood on the wall.
From this out It was a brutal affair,
the c0lored man, who was game, being
knocked down at the end OF each round.
When time was called for the thirteenth
and last round Rays eyes were closed,
he had large lump over his heart and
his nose was spread all over his face. He
grouped around for bis opponents, who
easily avoided him, and swinging his
right caught Bay on the Doint Of the
Jaw and settsd the fight. Seth had Il

How "A Negro Acted Over n Coin He Had

How n Negro Acted Over n Coin He Had
Found.
A negro running along n downtown
street at headlong speed with n small
lath in his hand, on which he balanced
coin of some denomination, was q
source Of much mystery to those who
saw him, says the Philadelphia Record.
Away he flew up the street, jumping
cutters and other distractions, mean
while frantically yelling to the few
pedestrians to keep out of the way, I'M
til he finally disappeared in small
court. Nobody seemed to be able to
give an explanation of the strange per-
Torrance until another colorcd man
came along and threw some light on
the subject. He said the other negro
had found the coin in the street, and
without touching it with his hand, had
covered it up with dirt while he went
off to find the lath or something SINH
lar, with which he returned to the
place where the coin was concealed
and scrapcd the latter out of the dirt.
He then ran as fast as he could to the
nearest policy shop, where it was his
intention to invest the lucky money.
1t was his firm belief that the quicker
he got to his destination the greater
would be his luck. To touch the coin
with his fingers would have broken the

INNOCENT CHILD.

She Was In n Summer Hotel and So JUS
titled Her Mothers Claim.
r They were sitting on the porch after
breakfast, and the local pastor was
speaking of the great need of two new
plates for the collection. The cost
would not be over five dollars. The
girl with the pink silk skirt, who
couldn't make up her mind whether to
give the bureau cover she was working
to Harry or Wood, thought she would
the church, says the New York Even
ing Sun.
"Good" said the married lady with
the blue skirt. "That will be fifty
chances at ten cents q chance"
This made the lady with the pink
skirt look sleepy, for she had expected
the proceeds to be sufficient for not
only the plates, but new pews, steeple
with clock and set of chimes.
Then all the people in the hotel
gathered together, and the man from
Sandusky who had never seen the
water loaned his yachting cap. The
hotel was of the class where there is a
great deal of time, but not much hilarity
or food. So to make it last long they
decided to put fifty tickets in the hat
and the last one drawn was to get the
bureau cover. And then the question
arose MS to who should draw them.
The funny man said, without any
hesitation: "An innocent child"
And then all the mothers of children
looked around for their last born.
The lady with the blue skirt spied
hers first and said: "Come, little
goldcn-haired Frances, none can be
more innocent than you. Come and
draw fifty tickets out of this hat, slow
ly and one at time"
Say, ma" said goldcn-haired Fran
ces, you make me drowsy. Do you
think I've got glass arm?"

Fun for tho Newsboys.

Newsboys in New York have revived
an odd game. AS described in the New
York Tribune, ono little fellow with q
newspaper rolled into formidable
sized club bangs the head of another as
hard as he can. The other little fellow
never winces. After each blow is struck
both players stick out their little hands,
sometimes closely doubled up or with
the index finger sticking ont, or with
two or three or four fingers protrud-
ing. The interest of the game centers
in the chance of both players putting out
the same combination of fingers. Then
the newspaper changes hands and the
play goes on.

Times to-day publishes dispatch, from
it's correspondent at Santiago de Chill,
stating thatinsulting notes were written
to the government by Egan, United
States Minister to Chilli, and his own
kilograms to his own government caused
the proposition to be made that Chilli
suppress her legation at Washington.
This proposition was discussed at a
meeting of the finance committee of
the house of representatives last night,
and heated debate was had on the
question. The government declined to
support tho proposal and whom the
matter was put to a vote those who
were IN favor of recalling the Gillian

Republican Chances South.

From the Washington Post
Our esteemed contemporary, the Mail
and Express, of New York, is just now
engaged in building up a beautiful and
fairylile theory as to the growth of Re-
publicanism in the Sodth. 1t has been
drinking in the revelations Of Southern
progress vouchsafed by the sweet sing
ers of special trade journals and other
hebdomadal brewers of gaudy but unre-
liable statistics; and it appears to have
drunk Unexpectedly.
The Post yields to mono in it's cordial
and glad recognition of the material de-
velopment of the South, but it fails to
SEQ tho force of the Mail and Express
hypothesis. Commercial and industrial
progress do not necessarily imply the
triumph of Republican principles any
moro than decadence and sloth and
degradation mean that Democracy is
getting the upper hand. The time for
that sort of talk has passed. Repub-
licanism will begin to spread and
strengthen at the South just as soon as
the Republican party adopts broad,
courageous, and intelligent policy TO-
ward the Southern States, Alabama
and Tennessee may multiply their in
dustries and increase their capital until
they overshadow Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania, but they will not ask for admis-
sion to tho Republican party so long as
that party talks to them of force bills,
or proposes, in any other form, re-
newal of the violence and turmoil which
they endured under Republican rule
once before. and which they do not
care to experience again.
If the party to which the Mail and
Express looks for all the virtue in the
world will stop treating the Southern
STATES like poor relations, stop misrepres-
enting everything they do. treat item
on terms of perfect equality with the
other States, abandon the idea OF MAX
ing laws which apply injuriously to
them-in short, II 1t will brace up and
take now departure in the direction
Of nerve and common sense, it may pre-.
pare to see the South throw off "solid-
ity" for which it will then have no fur
Their use, and Of which it is already
thoroughly tired.

generally noisy, at times unavoidably
noisome, and at oil times an unpleasant
neighbor, should be so located that it
will be check upon the development
OF business center. 1t would be far
better to remodel the present structure
into police headquarters, with station
house for temporary detention of ar
rests, police magistrates court and
MAYORS Office in one, and transfer the
jail to tho north side of the railroad.
Public sentiment is already favorable
to tho removal of the Jail, and Council
will not only be supported by so doing
but thereby settle troublesome matter
in n creditable way.

REMOVE THE JAIL.

NThe amicable adjustment of tho diff

not HAVING exercised his rights at an

the part ofSSpuncil to do the best its
