Will Scrap Tonight.

Horace Leeds Of Atlantic City and Billy
Ernst of BROOKLYN Will meet in a fight to finish
at Coney Island tonight. Leeds claims to be
the only mar who ever fioored Jack McAuliffe
in the ring. Ernst has an excellent record and
is a fast and clever fighter.
The match bids fair to attract a large crowd
to the club house by the sea. In Philadelphia,
where Leeds is well known, great interest Is
shown in the meeting and no doubt a large
delegation will be present from the Quaker
city. Dominick sMcCaffrey has been training
Leeds at the latter's home in Atlantic City, and
expresses full confidence in his apuity to win.
Ernst is equally confident. This bout is for a
purse of $4,000. Special trains will run TO the
Island to accommodate the clubs patrons.
The curtain raiser will be a ten round bout
between Jim Sullivan and Hammer.

SISTERS LOVE FOR HER BROTHER.
Two Square Feet of Her Skin Engrafted
on Her Brother.

Two Square Feet of Her Skin Engrafted
on Her Brother.
ROCHESTER, NY, October 9, 1S93.-One
of the most remarkable and delicate cases
of skin grating in the history of M edical
science was performed in this city last
week by DR.. Charles r. Barber and
several other physicians. About two
weeks ago Arthur Wheeler, aged five
years, living at No. "a Herman street, was
playing with some other children in the
back yard. They started a bonfire.
Arthur stumbled and fell into the names.
His coat caught fire n his entire breast,
abdomen and one side were frightfully
burned.
1t was decided that the only thing that
could be done was to engraft the skin of
some healthy person on to the burned
parts of the little fellows body, but for
some time no one could be found who
would consen to parting with his or her
cuticle. 1t was finally suggested that
Minnie Wheeler, sister of he little
sufferer, aged seventeen years, should
submit to the operation. The young lady
at first objected, but at last her owe for
her brother induced her to submit to the
operation.
Yesterday morning the little boy and
his brave sister were taken to the City
Hospital, that being considered a better
place than their home to perform the
operation, and the difficult aud delicate
work was performed. Miss Wheeler was
placed under the influence of ether and
| strips of skin from both thighs and one of
the hips were shaved of with sharp razors
aud transformed to the body of the little
brother.
An idea of the operation may be gained
when it is stated that enough OF the skin
to cover two square feet of the burned
boys body was removed from the young
woman. One piece of skin that was re-
moved extended from just above the knee
fully nine inches along the thigh The
girls limbs were swathed in bandages,
an she was taken nome in the ambulance,
the boy remaining in the hospital 1t is
expected that a new cuticle will have put
in an appearance inside of ten days, and
that Miss Wheeler will have entirely re-
covered before the LIST of November.
Nothing can be determined as to the
success of grating the skin on Arthur
Wheeler for ten days to come, but it is
believed that the operation will result in
saving the boys life. Both patients were
reported as doing well today.

the vital issue now IS not whether the

or the senate shall be permitted to x
crcise fits constitutional function Of
voting whether the majority shall rule

senators do not wish it to pass. OF
what use Is It that the public should
be humbugged any longer with respect
