NO ANSWER YET.

Major Mcclure Has Received No
 Reply From Bryan E. Lynn.
 Major Mcclure, the famous broadswordsman has received no reply to his challenge to New Havens swordsman, Bryan E. Lynn. Major Mo Guire has long string of victories over the most prominent swordsmen all over the country. The major has newspaper clippings and records of all his battles.
 Among the men who were defeated by Major Mcclure are: Duncan O. Ross, Sergeant Charles Welsh, F. X. Noriga, MT. Irving A. Morse of New Orleans, Samuel Vidder of Denver, J. R. Lough- lin of San Francisco, Samuel Miller of New York, c. M. Barton of Jacksonville, Fla, Captain Phelan and Major Longstreet of Kansas City and host of others. The major has records and newspaper clippings on all his victories, as above noted.
 Major Mcclure, besides being an expert swordsman, is a very fine all'round athlete and g clever writer.
 He leaves this city for Jamestown, N. Y.. Sat urday night, but he is in hopes to hear of an an swer to his challenge before he leaves. From Jamestown he will go to Baltimore and will probably be in New York or this city in the course of three weeks.

AN IMPORTANT MEETING
Of Pat Cleburue Camp Held Las
Night. I

A regular meeting Of Pot Cleburne
Camp was held last night at the city
hall. Captain Johnson occspied the
chair and Adjut4nt NJ. A. Cooper the
secretary's desk.
The minutes of the previous meet.
ing were read and adopted, after
which several new members were ad.
mitted.
A committee was appointed to wait
upon Ex-Governor Ross at his hotel
and extend him an invitation to visit
the Camp aud address them. The
governor expressed his regrets at his
inability to comply, and the commit
tee so reported.
The most importataut business
of the session was upon a circular
from Gen. w. Il. Gable, inviting tbs
Camp to unite with other camps in the
formation of State Confederate Vet
Grams organization. This question
eicited much discussion which was in.
dulged in by number of mem bers,
both pro and con, but the general
Impression is that the moiority of the
members will favor the union. A
committee Of six, composed of Messrs.
Harm, West, MayGeld Blair, Shaw
and Moore, was appointed to confer
together about the matter aud to re.
port at the next meeting, to be held
next Friday night
The meeting then adjourned.

is more marked for the corresponding
period of 1892 than that of any pre-

larger than that for any preceding
year, giving evidence that 1892 will
surpass that of any previous year, in
the success of this truly phenomenal
