WASHINGTON. July so.-Thc Repubs
lican national executive committee will
meet at the Arlington hotel in this city
today. The meeting was to have been
held in Philadelphia, but a change of
plan was decided on. II Mr.. Quay in
sists upon retiring it is supposed that
Clarkson will be chosen chairman and
either Fessenden Oh Payne will succeed
Clarkson as vice chairman. Omaha is
early to the front with a bid for the ma
tional convention. Colonel G. R. Scott
is on hand with authority to present the
claims of that city. He says that Oma.
ha is going to do all she can to get the
convention. Those members Of tho
committee who are trying to prevent
Mr.. Quay's retirement have raised the
question of the right of the executive
committee to accept his resignation as
chairman. They say that he wac chosen
chairman OF the national committee,
and is chairman of this executive COM
mittee by virtue of the other chairman
ship; that is, that he is chairman ex-
officio of the executive committee and
must remain 80 as long AS he is chair
man OF the national committee. Ii this
idea prevails at the meeting, Mr.. Quay
will not be able to retire until after the
national convention has met and or
ganized, which will be some time next
fall,

A Heroine.

The following from the Lead Tribune
gives an account of the heroic action Of
n Of the young ladies of that city.
Sunday afternoon about 2 o'clock the
new barn lately erected by S. r. Smith
near his Addie street residence was dis.
covered to be on fire. 1t was discov.
erad by Miss Sadie, daughter OF AIR.
Smith, who being at home alone, was
first at a loss what to do. Sending in
the alarm and waiting FOR The DEPART
ment to scale the steep hill would con-
sumo too much time, and by the time
they would reach the scene the fire
would be beyond control. So hast
lily making up her mind she forced
her way through the smoke to free the
horses. This act as everybody knows
is no easy task, as horses are very stub
born around a fire, but nevertheless she
had two of them out of danger when
James Steel, a neighbor, arrived upon
the scene and freed the other. This act
completed, Miss Smith at once attach.
ed the garden hose to the hydrant, and
breaking in a window at the part of
the building in which the fire was
burning, sent a valuable stream IN up
on the burning hay. During this
time the alarm had been sent in, but
when the department arrived they
could do no good for she had the flames
under control. Her action is consid-
cred by all as great piece of bravery,
and due praise has been extended from
all sides. The damage done to the
building is very slight and can easily
be repaired.

Tile Storm.

Sunday evening about $50 o'clock a
heavy wind storm accompanied by rain
and hail passed over the city, in a
southerly direction. Many of our cit
liens were at church when the storm
broke ver the city and many were
badly frightened. The storm lasted
but a few minutes, but in that short
time many window panes were broken
and much other damage was done.
There was little glass on the north sides
of buildings that escaped damage. The
wind was strong enough to blow over
fences, outhouses and carry loose
boards through the air. The tighten
ing was sharp, bright and vivid, while
tho pcals of thunder were loud, clear
and terrifying. In tho north end OF
town the wind took two towers off the
plunge bath and broke nearly all the
window lights in the roof and west
end. The new residence of Banker
Bassett, of Nebraska, was moved about
six feet from the foundation. Through
out the Upper town and on the pla-
teau window lights were broken in
every house. AS usual the College
building suffered the most damage, as
it is the most exposed, some twenty to
twenty-five lights are broken of the
west and north sides. Down town L..
V. Hunts liverv barn was damaged
the most. The real end of the barn
was completely demolished aud the
wonder is how the horses escaped in
jury, vet true it is. that all were taken
out without sustaining any hurt. The
barn looks as though a cy clone struck
it, which is probably the truth. The
Ferguson and Avenue houses both
suffered the loss of all the windows on
the north side. In fact hardly a north
window in town escaped. The loss
by the storm though not nearly so Sc
we're as that caused by the storm Of ?
few weeks ago, amounts to some $500
tc $4,000. The glass merchants are
having a harvest andthe "glash pudin''
fellows are III their glory.

Dixon Downs tho Australian Bantam and
Does 1t Easily.
San FRANCISCO, July sO.-The prize
fight between George Dixon of Boston
and Abe Willis Of Australia took place
at the gymnasium of the California
Athletic club for o purse of $1,000 and
the bantamweight championship Of the
world. Willis was practically unknown
here and the betting before the fight
began was in Dixon's favor, ranging
from 800 to $40. to 800 to $40. Great
interest was taken in the fight and the
club room was we'll filled. The con-
testaIts appeared in tn. ring socn after
ton. Dixon's seconds were Tim
O'Rourke. Mitchell and Billy Akers.
Willis was seconded by Martin Murphy
and Billy Smith. Hiram Cook was
referee. Time was called at 8:43.
Ficst Round-The men spared care
fully for fully a minute. Dixon show
ing to greater advantage in reach.
Then Dixon led and caught Willis on
the jaw, sending him down. When he
rose, there was tine liveliest kind Of a
rally, the mon slngging each other at
close quarters, Dixon plainly having
the best of it. Willis Rugged as much
as possible.
= second-After Fighting cautiously for
2 minute, Dixon planted a swinging
left on the Australian's jaw. Several
sharp rallies and much clinching fol-
lowed, then they kept up a see-saw on
each others jaws at the closest possible
range. The round closed with cheers
for both.
Thlrd-Both men were very weary at
trst, Dixon then landed his left on
Willis body and his right on the Jaw.
Neither blow did much damage,
Fourth-After two minutes Of spar-
ring Dixon rushed and landed on Wills
jaw and body several times. receiving
two sharp raps in return. Both were
very quiet and saved themselves by
logging.
others. Neither man seemed disposed
ct first to rush and force matters.
Towards the close there was a sharp
give and take for a moment, though
Dixon was plainly landing harder aud
oftcner: Presently Dixon caught the
Australian on the jaw with his left and
sent him down. Willis ,ose to his
hands and knees and took his ten Sec
onds on The floor. He arose a little
weak, but wheu Dixon rushed at him
he ssood prepared to receive the attack.
He was not able to do much, however,
in the rally that followed, and Dixon's
right soon came into contact with
Willis jaw and the latter went down
fiat on his back. He fell heavily and
lay like q log. When ten seconds had
expired Willis seconds had to lit him
from the floor and Dixon was declared
the winner.
Dixon was apparently fresh and exc
cuted o jig at the ring-side while his
opponent was being revived. The YER
dict here is that Dixon is a world beater
at his weight.
