EFFICACY OF A Gun
Shown in Sunday Duluth Prize
Fight.

DULUTH, MIMI, Aug. Duluth
sports are greatly excited tonight over
an eighteen-round fight that took place
this afternoon up st. Louis river. about
fifteen miles from Duluth. The mill
was between Paddy Harrington, once
heavyweight champion of Wisconsin,
and George Robinson, negro heavy
weight from New York. y party of
about 200 sports were taken up the river
on barge TO witness the fight. The
referee chosen was prominent Duluth
professional man. The opening of the
fight was tame, but in the later rounds
there was vicious mitigating, in
which Harrington had the best
of it. The call of line
alone saved the negro in the
seventeenth round, and in the eight
eentn Harrington went in hard to finish
his man. harrington got in severe
blow early, and the friends Of the negro,
starting cry of foul, began 10 crowd
iuto the ring. Nearly all the crowd had
been drinking, and many were in an
ugly mood. The referee drew gun
and stood off the crowd while tie fight
went on. The black man went down
and was counted out, and the fight
given 10 Harrington. This Increased
the excitement, and a free-f or-aII fight
was started, bur was Quelled before
any serious damage was done. The
referee and small party who sided
with him were picked up by tug and
brought back to Duluth, and further
trouble thus avoided.

ABOUT HORSE TRADES.
How a Bay Was Sold at Least
Seven Times.

Seven Times.
They were talking about horse trades.
The man with the gray chin whiskers
said that he had been trading horses for
forty years, and he allowed that he
knew as much about the business as
any one, says the Buffalo Express.
However. when he was down at Lock
port last week he heard of scheme
that knocked silly everything he had
ever done or had ever had done to him.
Pressed for the story. he said: "a
couple of sharp young fellows came TO
Lockport while ago with seven horses
and one consumptive mule. They hired
a little shanty on the Iowpath of the
canal and announced tina: they were
ready TO swap horses at the slightest
provocation. Six of the seven horses
they had were OLD and weather-beaten
old nagS that were worth about $40
apiece. The other was nice-looking
bay, fat and handsome. The mule cut
no figure at all.
Zone day canal man came along
and stopped at the shanty in which the
seven horses and the one mule were
eating their heads off. He announced
that he wanted to buy team. He
looked over the stock, picked|out one of
the best of the six spawned horses and
the nice-l0oking bay. But one of the
members of the firm was in sight during
the deal. The other one hid in the
shanty. The canaler offered 500 for
the team, and, after much baggling, the
offer was accepted. The buyer put the
team on the tow line and started off.
After be had got we'll ON his way, the
man who had been in hiding in the
shanty came out, hitched up one of the
remaining horses to sulky and started
off briskly.
The canaler drove along for about
two miles, and then the bay horse sud-
denly baked. He used every argu-
ment known to men who drive horses
along the towpath to get the bay to 20,
but it would not bulge. He worked
for an hour, and at the end of that time
was in a state of anger that can better
be imagined than described. Just at
this juncture man drove up the tow
path. He was riding in Sulky, and
had pretty poor horse. He asked the
canaler what was the matter. and even
went so far as to get down and try to
get the bay started. His efforts were
unavailing, however, and, as last re-
sort, he offered to take the horse of the
canal mans hands. He said that he
had plenty of time and could wait until
the horse got ready to start, whereas
time was money to the canal man. He
offered to trade for $50 to boot. The
canaler demurred at this. They haggled
for a time and finally came to an agree
ment whereby the canaler gave-the man
on the Sulky $50 to boot. The canaier
hitched up the new horse and went along.
The man who had the bay waited until
it was ready to start. Then he put it
between the shafts of the sulky and
drove back to the shanty. He was the
man who had been in hiding. The firm
got S135 for two of the poorest horses.
They worked that bay off and got it
back seven times. The bay was sure to
balk within few miles and they knew
it. For all know they may be working
the same scheme yet"

A Sentimental Some

Mr.. Whitehead is a tinsmfth in
Weayerville. bis wife's name is Ann,
and Ann and the tinsmith have never
got along very we'll together. says the
San Francisco Examiner. Mrs. Martin
and Mrs. Whitebread, SO the story goes,
became quite chummy. There was
piano III the tinsmith's house,
and Mrs. Martin was in the
habit OF playing "The Old Oaken
Bucket" The man of solder rather
liked it at first. But when Mrs Mar
tin continued TO thrum out the same
tune day after day it got kind of, tire
some. He demonstrated with Ann, but
the wife told him to mind his pots and
kettles, and not NEEDLE with music.
One day the tinsnllth lost all patti
ence anu went upstairs, and after
dancing jig OH the Legs, wound up by
smaS hlng the instrument all to pieces,
ending the performance by remarking,
Io-with Your Old Oaken Bueket.1

hard wood. Great ranges of these ties.
or the same material, lined the grade
awaiting to be put down. The shrewd
English purchasers ehuekled with de-
light on making the discovery. and set
to work at once to have the ties con-
veyed to Little Rock. Those which
had already been laid down were
taken up and added to the stock of the
mahogany timber. The ties were for
warded then to New York, from which
place the timber was shipped to Eng
land and sold. The sales of the ties
alone Melted the spectators a hand
some profit, and in lieu of mahogany
ties cheaper wood was substituted by
the Englishmen in the subsequent con-
Struction of the road.

HAD 'PossUMs FOR SALE.
So He Stopped the Express to Get
Help to Catch Them.

So He Stopped the Express to Get
Help to Catch Them.
The regular passenger train was going
west from Griffin, and was about forty
minutes late, and the engineer was try
ing to make up lost time and conse-
quently running about fifty miles an
hour. says the Senoia Pa.) Enter
prise Gazette. lie was Mortified
to see just about 200 yards ahead
OF him, just as he turned
curve before he got to Whitewater
creek, man on the track waving his
coat across the track and over his head
and seemed to be very much excited.
The engineer, thinking of course that
the bridge had been burned or fallen in,
applied his air-brazes. reversed his
engine and shouted to his fireman to
jump. They both landed safely. and the
train came to halt so suddenly that it
nearly unseated all the passengers.
For Gods sake, what's the matter?"
asked the almost breathlesS conductor
of the fellow who had stopped his train.
Sam-for what was his name-an-
swered:
Il jes' wanted to know eff you wanted
ter buy some 'possums?"
The engineer tainted, the fireman flew
back to the engine, and the conductor
looked all about him for a rock or
fence rail to kill Sam with. and finally
reached in his hip pocket for his pistol.
fully intent to kill him on the spot, but
he did not have his pistol and could not
find anything to hit him with. He saw
he was in it, and after moments re-
Election he told Sam he would take his
OpoSSums. The conductor intended to
take all Sans opossumS and leave Sam
standing without paying for them. So
the conductor asked Sam where they
were. The engineer had recovered
himself, the fireman and about two
thirds of the passengers had got up to
! the engine by now and eagerly looked
for Sam to bring in about dozen big,
fat opossums, but Sam simply said to
the conductor:
"Wall, hain't got um here, but these
here woods up here is JUS chuck full of
um, land I'll ketch you three or four and
bring UNI down some time"
Four strong men lifted the limp and
almost lifeless form of the conductor to
the train.
