[Specialto THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch I
BosToN, Jan. 2O.-A number of the old
time sporting men of this city who have
been following boxing for years and who
have at times been hackers of some of
Americas best pugilists, happened to meet
at Captain Cooks Office Saturday For
several hours they discussed some recent
big battles, and they were unanimously of
the opinion that some changes must be made
to avoid so many uneven contests. To
change the weights and make some new
classes seemed to be their idea. They
finally came to the conclusion that the fol-
lowing weights and classes would put an
end to one sided fights Bantam, ITO pounds
and under; featherweights. lie to 122
pounds; lightweights, 122 to 12S; heavy
lightweights, 12S to 135: welterweights, 135
to 143; middleweights, 152 to 1853; light
heavy weights, 163 to LIS, and heayyweights,
It's and over.

Described His Fight.

The editor of the Ensign, a paper
published at Nephi. Utah, about sixty
miles south of Salt Lake, recently had
fight with the postmaster of the
town, and describes the encounter as
follows: While passing W. III. Cages
saloon yesterday afternoon we stepped
inside on a matter of business, and
were accosted by our unesteemed, half
drunken postmaster, John Witbeck,
with the request that we have drink
with him. Being particular about our
company, we politely but firmly de-
clined, only to be urged again and
again in a brutal manner, while we
positively declined to accept. Step
ping up to where we stood, the burly
bully seized us by the collar, saying
I'D like to strangle you and all your
associates We then told him to pro-
coed to business if that was his desire,
when, without further warning, the
cowardly braggart struck us in our eye.
This naturally raised our ire, and we
sailed in to make the fur fly. We were
just beginning to get warmed up and
were taking the sane interest we have
SO often experienced in punching sack

on the scene and stopped our fun just
as we were putting our fist on our OPP

WISCONSIN SOLONS.

THE Assembly held brief session on the
night of the 9th, going through bills in
committee of the whole. Over twenty
measures were reported for indefinite post
ponement A sensation was caused among
legislators by the publication in an official
paper of statements to the effect that the
State has not acquired clear title 10 the
site of the Veterans Home at Waupaca.
Two years ago the State appropriated over
$1,000 10 the home, and bill for similar
amount has passed the Senate, and has been
reported favorably to the House.
THE Assembly went through long call
endar on the 10th, passed four bills killed
twenty-five, and passed to third reading
and engrossment sixteen others. The SEN
ate held short session. Senator Wood
worth, of Waupaca, denied the allegations
of misrepresentation of funds of the Veter-
ans Home, made by the Milwaukee Journal.
He says that $4,000, not specified in
the last appropriation, was spent on build
ing on the recommendation of General
Averill, at Washington, Inspector of Ma
tiOnal Homes, in order that the State could
receive 500 for each inmate, and the money
turned over to the Secretary of State In
regard to "a mortgage on the premises which
has not been liquidated Mr. Woodwork
says that there is a mortgage of $4,000 un-
paid, for the reason that the holders of it
will not accept a settlement until it expires
next August.
THE Assembly session on the it'll was
taken up with the civil rights bill. An amend
ment restricting the provisions of thebill to
land and water traffic accommodations,
proposed by the d. 1ocrats of the Judiciary
Committee, was agreed to and the amended
bill passed to third reading by strict party
vote. The Democrats, during the debate,
charged the Republicans with forcing this is
sue upon the party in power after refusing
to act on it during twenty-five years of
rule in the State. The original bill made
it criminal otfense to refuse the privileges
of any public place to a black man. The
amended bill applies only to inns and con-
veyances by land or water Mr.. Desmond,
of Milwaukee, presented resolutions deplor
Ing the custom of giving appropriations to
private corporations and urging the defeat
of such action. The resolutions are aimed
at the bill appropriating $50, 900 to the Vet
Grams Home at Waupaca. The Senate
passed few unimportant bills.
BOTH houses of the Legislature adjourned
on the 18th, after passing resolutions of
respect to the memory of Assemblyman Ed
wards The members in a body escorted the
remains to the train, and q committee of
three Assemblymen and two Senators &C
companied the family of deceased to their

THE two houses of the Legislature met on
the evening of the 10th. Governor Peck
sent a message to the House vetoing the bill
embOdying the charter of Kaukauna on ac-
count of an irregu arity in some of its pro-
visions. Twenty-siX bills were passed,
including one authorizing the city of Vino
