The fights were all Of light calibrc and
in consequence thereof there was de

considerable money, but the Irish lad
was expected TO put up most stubborn
fight and give everybody run for their
money. At the opening of the first bout
it was very evident that the house would
be slim. The fight Of the night then
took place. They fought for purse OF
$500, the winner to take $1,000 and the
loser $500 Pimmer was strong

We read with no little amaZcment OF
the prodigious number of tapestry chairs
worked by the Electress Sophia, mother
OF George L., who left tokens OF her nimble
fingers TO palaces, converts and churches

THE MESSIAH CRAZE.

Prompt Measures TO suppress It Among
the Pawnee aud Oteo Indians.
GUTHRIE, Oklahoma, March 29.-The
Messiah craze has again made it's appear
ance among the Pawnee and Oteo In
dians, but seems in fair way to be
brought to a speedy end by the arrest OF
w. w. White, Pawnee Indian, and Buff
falo Black, an Oteo, who were brought
here in irons from their reservations.
They have been telling tbs Indians that a
great Messiah would come and would
bring with him all Indians in the happy
hunting grounds; that under the lead
ership of the Messiah the whites would
be swept from the face of the earth, and
the original prairies, buffalo and deer
would reappear.
The children go to school decked in
war paint and feathers. There was some
difficulty in making the arrests. and IL is
possible that hostilities may follow. The
charge on which the Indians were ar
rested was that of melting an insurrec-
tion.

About Hats,

The tall hat, variously called "chimney-
pot" " stove pipe cylinder" and what
not, became fashionable in 1870, soon after
the death Of Franklin, in whose honor 1t
was known as "chapeau franklin" In
spite OF numberless changes OF style, II
has maintained its ground ever since, un-
expected as such a result would have
seemed at it's first introduction. For
time this style Of hat was considered rev.
olutionary in Germany and Russia; any
one wearing cylinder" was liable 10
punishment; but the evil reputation soon
passed away, and the tall, stiff hat, the
ugliest head-covering that was ever worn
and the most ridiculed, outlives all other
styles.
In q celebrated bcer-garden in Munich,
the Hofbrauhaus, any man daring TO APP
pear in cylinder is likely to have 1t
crushed fiat over his head, time honored
tradition declaring that here, IL anywhere,
tall hat is out OF place.
On the contrary, no honorable member
sits in the English House OF Commons
without his "pot" hat on his head. II
he rises TO address the House, greet a
friend, or cross the room, he must hold
his shiny title in his hand. Should his
name be mentioned In the speech of
another member, he lifts his hat respect
fully. II ii is in his hand when his name
Is uttered, etiquette requires him to clap
It hastily on his head in order that he
may lift IL with proper Difference.
In one OF the European Parliaments,
when tho president finds IL necessary to
end an argument, he gravely puts on his
cylinder. Though it happened nearly
thirty years ago, people still laugh at the
recollection OF a certain president who, to
close celebrated debate, took up his
neighbor's hat by mistake; it was far too
big for him, and falling down about his
ears, snuffed him out completely from the
gaze of the crowded house.-Youth's
Companion.

what is Doing at tho National Capital
The Programme of the Democrats in
Congress Money for the Big G. A. R.
Encampment Next Fall.

WASHINGTON, March 29-Officials who
are informed on the subject estimate the
seal catch OF Canadian poachers in Bering
Sen last season at $4,000 skins. This is
exclusive of the number OF seals killed
and not captured and the pups who
starved 10 death on the islands because
of the slaughter of their mothers at sea.
The catch during 1890 was slightly less
than in 1891, and 1889 was less than in
1890. The fact that the catch in 1891 when
sealing in Bering Sea was wholly prohib-
tied was larger than in 1890 when il was
only partially restricted, is explained by
the fact that there were many more ves-
sells engaged in sealing in 1891 than in
the preceding year.
The figures tend to indicate the amount
of damages the United States would be
required to pay in case this govern
ment agrees TO Lord Salisbury's PROPOSE
tion for q modus vivendi with an idem-
nifty liability in the event that the arbi-
traitors decide against the United States
on the question of its jurisdictionsl rights
in Bering Sea.
On the other hand, il the nrbitrators
decide against the contention OF Great
Britain, that government will be liable
for the claims OF the North American
Commercial Company against the United
States for non performance OF contract,
etc. BY this contract the catch was linn
tied to 10000 skins the first year and 100,-
600 each subsequent year.
Under tho terms OF the modus vivendi
the company was restricted TO 1000 skins.

Salisbury's Terms Seem Satisfactory To
the President and Congress.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-Lord Sails
bury's last communication TO the Presi-
dent, stating the grounds upon which h
would consent to renew the modus viven-
al as to Bering Sea, was killed before tia
Senate in executive session yesterday
tn Transmitting the PsPef- te the-SeHats
the President stated that Lord Salisbury
reply was very satisfactory to this gov
ernment and that he was preparing a
suitable response.
The character OF this response was indi-
Gated in the Presidents letter as being
substantial acceptance OF Lord Salisbury's
tender with a few notifications that
could doubtless be arranged without diff
lcu ty.
The reception OF the communication
has largely removed any doubt OF the
favorable action of the Senate upon the
treaty and when an adjournment was
had, 1t was the general belief that the
treaty would be ratified today, without
any conditions or resolutions that might
operate to defeat the competition OF the
negotiations.

BosToN, March 29.-The Journal has an
interesting story in relation TO "King"
Kelly. In substance the story is as fol-
lows; When Kelly jumped from the Bos-
ton Reds last year and signed with the
National League team, George w. Floyd,
the theatrical man engineered the deal.
Kelly was to get for the season Of 1892
5000, IL the triumvirs cleared $4,000, and
more il the profits were larger. 1t was
given out that Kelly was TO captain the
team. But now as the season OF 1892 10
about to open, Nash is made captain.
Mr.. Floyd asserts that this is viola
ton OF the paper now in his possession.
Mr.. Conant denies that he signed any
such document. Mr.. Floyd insists but
has not produced the paper.
Mr.. FLOYD wants Conant's terms for
letting Kelly go TO the Giants. Mr.. Con-
ant wants TO keep the whilom "king."
Kelly wants to go to New York.

ments in few days.
