Knights Of Pnhias Promenade Concert.

The Knights of Pythias have at least
piven a good reason for existence. Last
Thursday evening in response to invita-
lions from the Lodge, about hundred
COUPLES gathered at the Castle Hall and
eaioyed delightful evening The pro-
vramme of the evening consisted OF cards,
billiards. dancing and refreshments. The
lodge room was filed with with card ta-
6les. which were occupied most OF the
.;me. The billiard room had its quota,
h7t after $50 Schultz drew the most OF
shem into the ball room. The same quar-
tette furnished the music. Mrs. Schultz
presided at the piano, Schultz swung the
violin. ]. NJ. Hendrie blew the flute, and
Frank Rawson the cornet. The music
was as beautiful as ever: the only fault
10 be found with it was that the round
dances were too short Hendrie tumbled
TO ode oder way" and the way those
grown up children enjoyed themselves
was a caution. A square dance needs
either a stately movement and military
precision in every set or else just little
romping to make it enjoyable. La this
case. romping came nearer expressing the
situation. The refreshments were excel
lent and sensible and the Knights made
excellent walters. The dancing contin-
ued until half-past two.

THE WHITE MAN WON.
The Stockton Coon no Match for Alex
Greggains.

The Stockton Coon no Match FOR Alex
Greggains.
SAN Francisco, May 27.-About SOC
people witnessed a fight between the
middleweights, Charlie Turner and
Alex. Greggains, for purse of $1,000 al
the Occidental club this evening. The
men appeared in the ring shortly before
O'Clock, and both seemed in excellent
condition. Greggains's superiority in
height and reach was very noticeable.
Ed Holman was referee.
In the first round Turner assumed
the aggressive, and landed a half dozen
light blows on the body and face, but
Greggains responded with several hard
raps on Turner's ear, and the round
closed with cheers for the white man.
Both were cautious in the second
round. A few blows were exchanged,
generally in Greggains' favor. Greg
gains bled at the ear.
The third round was hard one for
Turner. He began by, forcing, but ac-
complished nothing beyond following
Greggains around the ring. When two
minutes had expired, Greggains took a
hand and pounded Turner on the head
and in the body, finally sending him
down in heap by hard right-hander
in the ear.
Turner arose slowly, and Greggains
went after him again, sending him down
a second time. Turner again arose,
this time in nine seconds. He was stag
gering around the ring, and another
punch from Greggains sent him down a
third time. 1t looked as if Turner was
gone for good, but the call of time saved
him.
When the fourth round opened it was
plain to everyone that the fight was
Greggains's. He was perfectly strong,
and the black man was so weak that he
had to be assisted to his feet by his Sec
onds. Greggains went at him like ,cy-
clone, fought him in his corner, and
while Turner leaned helplessly against
the ropes, Greggains rained right and
left upon his head, Turner being unable
to hold his hands up to protect himself.
Turner fell to the lower rope, and Greg
gains continued to pound him, when
Captain Douglass, of the police force,
stepped into the ring and ordered him
to stop. Turner sank into his chair and
the referee awarded the fight to Greg
gains, amid wild cheering among the
spectators.

MAJOR B. G. TRUMAN writes to us that
the weather has improved in Chicago,
and that the visitors to the permanent
California exhibit are increasing every
day. The value of this exhibit is in the
fact that it is complete epitome of all
our productions, and is so carefully
classified and labelled that it gives the
home-seeker clear idea of the agricul-
tural, horticultural and viticultural ad-
vantages of our section. No intelligent
visitor can enter the exhibit room with
out becoming deeply interested in the
great variety OF contributions displayed
there. The dried fruits make a fine and
attractive showing, and all the exhibits,
from what Census Porter, the Unreli-
able, calls farming truck to the cereals
and all the fruits and nuts, are so ar
ranged as to make the visit sort of
kindergarten education to the eastern
visitor upon the resources of our section.
