NEW York. Sept. 29.-Bob Fitzsim-
mons reached Jersey City today from
Now Orleans. To an Associated Press
reporter he said: "I have read and
heard everything that Corbett has said
since issued my challenge to him. and
this is what / have to say in brief: 1t
is not that he ought, but that he has
got to meet me. am going to lick him
or he will lick me in short order. II he
loses his head. as he did with Mitchell
at Jacksonville, I'll find it for him in
very quick time. I have signed with
the Olympic club Of New Orleans to
fight him for purse of $4,000 and
several men have offered to back me
for $5 600 EACH"
While Fitzsimmons was speaking the
Newmark contingent offered to put mp
$25, 900 additional on his chances OF
beating Corbett.
II ehall not take any notice OF Steve
O'Donnell until he gets reputation by
fighting Joe Choynski or Peter Maher,
or some other man. O'Donnell never
beat me in Australia. l only met him
in practice bout of three rounds one
evening when had got through work.
and then he did not best me. Besides.
Corbett has only beaten broken-dcwn
stiffs like Kilrain, Sullivan and Mitchell.

When told that Colonel Hopkins and
Cresdon had claimed Fitzeimmons had

"Colonel Hopkins does not tell the

any part of my fist, and so long as fol-
low the rules in this respect, no maj

CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-John L. Sullivan
said today: "Corbett has no right. be-
cause he ia champion, to say: If yo'
don't fight on my dung hill, won
fight at all. His pretext that Fitzsim
mons is out OF his class 10 nonsense. IL

THE BEGINNING OF THE END.
Doom of the Tartar Dynasty
in China.
The Present Emperor Seated on a
Tottering Throne.
Japan and the Gee Hing Society Will
Overthrow Him-B ritish Troops
Ordered to Shan Ehai to
Protect Foreigners.

By the Associated Press
CHICAGO, Sspt 29.-Chicago's China
town was astir today over the news of
the rebellion of troops in China. Sam
Moy, the local mandarin, says:
''It means the beginning Of the end.
We Cinnamon wish to see China win.
but more than that we wish our own
emperor back, in place Of the usurper
who now reigna over us.
"For years the Gee Kings have been
growing in power, and today they have
generals and officers in command of the
army. The sole object of the Gee Hing
society is to overthrow the present en-
peror and restore the old dynasty.
s'It Is secret society with millions OF
members in China and ct least 800 in
Chicago. The emperor has offered
$1,000 reward for the head OF every Gee
Hing, but there 10 not enough money in
the treasury to pay for the heads. The
war with Japan will not last much
longer. for the Gee Kings will soon be
strong enough to come out openly and
dethrone the emperor"
Mandarin Moy thinks this winter will
see new emperor and an elaborate
coronation in China. which many Chi
nsmen now in America will attend if
they can borrow the money to cross the
Pacific.

The brilliant editor of the Globe Review
has attained most enviable reputation az
a writer of rare strength and versatility.
Not only are the products of his pen marked
by lofty moral sentiments, but they carry
also the force of convictions honestly en-
tertained and courageously expressed.
The little volume in which he has
now given the public selection of his best
poems is gem both in the notable literary
merit of its contents, and in the artistic
daintiness of its mechanical execution. If
it is accorded the attention it deserves It
will certainly rank among the most popular
holiday books of the season. Since the
death of DR.. Holmes, the last of the great
trio of American poets-Longfellow
Whittier and Holmes-the question has
been frequently asked: Where, in ranks
of American literary workers can
we look for poets worthy to succeed them
in the affections of our reading public. It
certainly seems to US that Mr.. Thorne gives
promise of ability to fill, in time, q worthy
place in the front ranks of American poets.

David Bennett Hill is probably setting
himself down dolt. He must feel like the
gambler, who thought he had perfected a
scheme to break the bank at Monte Carlo
but himself was broken. He must at last
be convinced that sentiment and ideals are
factors that can't be eliminated from even
New York politics, for he saw them misap'
piled in the denomination of Cleveland de-
spite the "snap" convention, and he has
seen them applied in rendering his own de-
feat the most humiliating of any Demo
cratic candidate in the country.
