Wednesday night, though it was very
even battle up to the tenth round. In
the 18th Fitzsimmons opened, landing q
left, and the next instant heavy right
on. the jaw. Maher landed his right
heavily on the Australians neck, but got
q couple of bad blows from right and left
in return. Fitzsimmons closed the round
with two bad lefts on Makers bloody
nose and mouth. In the twelfth, Fltz-
simmons seemed confident. and there
were offers of 100 to 30 all over the house
on his winning, with few takers. The

again and the blood flew in stream.
Twice more the brawny left of the Aus
tralian shot into Makers face and his
head went back between his shoulders.
Maher was groggy and Fitzsimmons
again landed terrific blow in the mouth.
Time was called and Maher fell in his
chair covered with blood and both hands
hanging loosely by his side. eth go on if
you like" he said to Madden, his second,

ST PATRICK'S NIGHT
At Holy Rosary Hall--'Destiny of the Irish
Race by DR.. Dillon Eagan.
The committee on programmes have
worked lintiringly during the past few
weeks to secure a popular and artistic
programme. The best musical and lit
erary talent has been secured for that
occasion. Prominent among the literary
talent is Miss M. Grathwol, one of the
most popular and accomplished dramatic
readers and elocutiorists in st. Paul.
She will display the rare capabilities OF
her art in her able delivery Of "Erin's
Flag" the charming poem of the "poet-
priest" The unrivalled renditions of
Prof. A.. w. Porter aud of Mrs. Geo. E.
Bertrand, nee Lillian Stoddard, will fur
nish the attraction for all lovers of mu-
sic. Mrs. Geo. e. Bertrand has chosen
selections we'll adapted to the full dis
play of her powerful and charming
dramatic soprano voice. Prof. A. W.
Porter and Mrs. Geo. e. Bertrand are be-
yond question the foremost vocal artists
in Minneapolis. The Rosary Quartet,
Mons. Baker and others, will render pop
ular and patriotic selections. Miss. K.
Norling will give piano selections. Miss
Beth. Bragg will give severalviolin selec-
tions. She is the foremost lady violinist
of this city. Minneapolitan lovers of
muse take great pride in this accom-
plished and promising aspirant to artistic
fame, she being born and educated in
Minneapolis. Her rare accomplishments
as violinist are an evidence both Of the
artistic capabilities of Minneapolis,and of
woman's capabihty as violinist. She is
fair rival with Profs. 81. Hoevel and
Claud Maddin. The literary attraction
of the evening will be furnished by Ire
lands patriotic orator, Dr. Francis Dill
Ion Eagan. He will take for his theme
'The Destiny of the Irish Race Or the
Spiritual and Political Mission of the
Irish Race"
MIR. Eagan is patriotic Irishman, he
is we'll versed in the ancient and modern
history of Ireland be has studied that
history upon Irish soil. He is most
thoroughly and most happily qualified to
bespeak the canse of Ireland and to lee
ture on the destiny Of the Irish race.
On the 18th of March, 1879, Archbishop
Wood of Philadelphia, invited Mr.. Eagan
to deliver lecture in the Academy of
Music. The lecturer chose for his theme
the DESTINY of the Irish Race" Ever
since Mr.. Eagan has been regarded one
of the ablest, most eloquent and patriotic
opponents of the Irish Cause. TO con-
vince ourselves of the rare oratorical
abilities and of the patriotic spirit OF
Francis Dillon Eagan we need but read
few of the many testimonials:
CDR. Dillon-Eagan is an accomplished
scholar, and he really has very remark
able and unusual oratorical powers" -
Archbishop Ryan, Philadelphia.
"Dr. Dillon Eagan is the most finished,
scholarly and eloquent lecturer we have
ever heard.'-St. Louis Daily Times.

There are 50 many cranky convicts in
the Penitentiary that it requires constant
care and watchfulness to keep them EN-
ployed and out Of mischief. There IS
everything in knowing how to take their
idiosnyerssies. As an instance there is 9
haif-witted young colOre1 fellow in Col
umbus, o., with whom the last admins
tration had 50 much trouble that they
gave up trying to make him work but
when the present officers took hold this
able-bodied reealcitrsnt was put in the
the east hall and told to keep an eye on
the guards and report if they did not
conduct themselves properly. Then he
was told that in order that the guards
might not suspect what he was there for,
he would be required to DO certain dai-
ly task as 8 blind" The iuse worked

a man in his place would DO ordinarily
He considers himself the most important

Indian Voters in Oklahoma.

The fac. that the Indian can vote if he
lives 'in severalty" and pays taxes ike
any other citizens comes up at odd times
to bother new states and territories. IN
1859 it raised a great row in Minnesota.
The legislature having enacted that In
dians, whether on a reservation or lot,
who had taken certain steps in ciYiliza-
ton, such as dressing ike white men
and wearing their hair ditto, should have
the right TO vote, one Cullen, an Indian
agent, promptly cut the hair Of all those
in his charge, put breeches on them and
marched thgn to the polls.
Among the humors OF the next cam
paign was & dialogue like this: "He
who cut your hair2" "Cullen & Co"
Now Judge John Dills and other lawyers
declare that the Indians in Oklahoma
will be entitled to vote at the coming
elections. They say the law provides
that Indians taking land in seyeralty
have the same right of franchise as any
citizen, and il this opinion be good law
the candidates will have $500 Indians to
buttonhole. II the Indians vote it IS
likely to make great difference in the
