BoD Keyworth was the only son OF Judge
Keyworth one Of the leading citizens of
Poughkeepsie-on-the Hudson. Judge Key
worth was man whom everybody respected.
He was very wealthy Then, again, he stood
at the head of his profession, and was, be-
sides, a vestryman of the most fashionable
Episcopal Church in the town.
The ambition of Judge Keyworth's life was
that his only son Bob should follow in his
fathers footsteps. In order that Bob should
become great lawyer, he was sent to Column
bia College, and at the time our story opens
he was member of tho law department Of
that institution. Judge Keyworth was we'll
aware that all kinds of temptations beset the
young man who resides in New York. Left
to himself, Bob would certainly get into bad
company, and acquire objectionable habits.
In order, therefore, to save him from the
fate of so many promising young men, Judge
Keyworth placed his son in charge of his life
long friend, lawyer Archibald, one Of the
most successful criminal lawyers of Gotham.
This gentleman was at first unwilling to as
sumo the implied responsibility, but he
finally yielded, and Bob Keyworth became a
member of the lawyers family. In spite of
lawyer Archibald's admonitions and warn
ings, young Keyworth soon began to develop
tendency for late hours and low company
One day the old lawyer called the young
student into his library. There was an
earnestness in lawyer Archibald's face and
manner that filled Bob with apprehensions
OF the most dismal character. Motioning to
Bob to be seated, Mr.. Archibald took chair
opposite to the young man, and said:
81 suppose, Robert, you are aware that
when your father placed you in my charge
objected to assuming any such responsibility,
but, out of regard for your father, to whom
am under obligations, I at last consented"
''Yes, sir; and I am sure my father APP
preciates your kindness very much, and SO
do To-
"My worst fears have been realized" con-
tnued the lawyer, looking sternly at the
young man, who began to look very uncom-
Portable.
"What-what do you mean, SIR stammered
Bob.
"You know very well what I mean, sir, !"
replied the old lawyer angrily, 81 know where
you spend your evenings, and the character
of the people of both sexes with whom you
associate"
Bob attempted to put in general denial,
but he gave it up when Mr.. Archibald told
Robert the names of the horses on which he
had lost his money, and went on, with min
uteness of detail that was appalling, to tell all

A BECOMING WRAP-There is no article
dress that is at once so convenient and be-
coming as the shoulder cape, and being dis
t1nctly useful, they are sure to retain
their popularity after more eccentric articles
have passed out of use. The favorite models
for these capes are short, very full, and the
shoulder trimmings are considerably modi-
fed from those of last season. Almost any
material can be used, but black silks, satin
and MORE will be found most serviceable
and dressy with any kind of gown. The
revers and the collars are made of white
satin, overlaid with bourbon lace that is very
becoming; a triple plated ruche of lace
makes a becoming trimming for the neck,
and bow of white MORE ribbon fastens the
wrap the long ends being tucked underneath
the cape, giving fichu effect.
A SUMMER GowN.-Artistic draping is
marked popularity of the gowns this summer
even when worn by conservative women. A
few days since I saw gown of beautiful
blue-gray crepon, trimmed with Venetian
guipure, underlaid with black satin. The
underskirt was of silk, finished around the
bottom with three narrow bias ruffies; the
overskirt was of the Eastbourne style OF
crepon, cut in circle shape, and had seam
in the back. Any five-gored model like the
"Gilbert'' or the "Merlin" will do for the
underskirt. The eorsage is a "Linviile''
crepon, slightly fulied over a fitted lining;
the yoke in the back is straight across the
bottom, and no opening Is visible, as it
fastens on the left shoulder and under the
arm. Sometimes one fabric is used, the
Gnders&irt b. g faced up with the gown
stuff; il such eases care must be used To
make tie lang So deep that the wild wiz

She selects those she thinks he would care to

The last census returns show that England

Corbett Will Win.
New YORK, Jan. 24.-As soon as the
news of the Injunction, which was
granted by Judge Call. at Jacksonville,
was received at the Hoffman house, the
talent present were highly elated. In
reply to an Associated Press reporters
questions, Billy Edwards, who is
looked up to by every men,
Der Of the club and man about
town as an authority on everything
which has any connection with pugil-
ism, said: II am very glad that the
Injunction has been granted, and that
the men will have chance to show
their respective abilities. 1 expect it
will be long and close fight, aud that
Mitchell will probably find that he has
met man quite as quick, il not quicker,
than he is. If after twenty rounds the
fight has not been decided, then the
better slayer will win, and l have
plenty of money at the rate of 2 to l
which says Corbett will be the victor"
Sam Emery, who is known all over
the United States as keen sporting
uldu, Wu6u o6tu dC TIC u.
James, said: $50 you say there will be
fight after all the distractions? l am
glad of it. If some enterprising man
would open a book and make the odds
5 to 4 and take your pick, would
rather lay l against z to any amount
that the fight will result in draw
rather than to take either man to win.
| certainly favor Corbett, but l am sat
isfied that Mitchell will put no big
fight, and some of his famous jabs will
feel like mule kicks TO Corbett."
Mr.. john Hackett. who was interested
in the fight between Jem Macs and Tom
Allen, was sitting beside Sam Emery,
and said: "I'll tell you my frank
opinion, and it is this: If the fight is
a fight to finish it's an equal chance
for both men. They are both good and
they know exactly what they are
about"
Dave Holland. when seen, was in
deep meditation.
well, Dave, what do you think of
the fight?" asked the Associated Press
representative.

again, | will make them the following
offer: | will box Fitzpatrick a limited
number of rounds Or to a finish for $1,000
a side and the largest purse obtainable
before any reliable club, at 15S pounds.
Now. if Mr.. Fitzpatrick means business,
let him put up forfeit at once with
your paper, and assure you he will be
accommodated at once. | see Mr.. FitZ-
patrick claims a chance blow i'll our

capable of defeating any one. All

patrick come to the front and will
show him if it was chance blow that

JACKSONVILLE DELIGHTED
With the Courts Decision in
Favor OF the Fight

With the Courts Decision in
Favor OF the Fight.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 24.-The
sympathiZerS with the contest pro-
moters had the town this afternoon.
The feeling akin to chagrin that pos
sessed them last night when uniformed
and armed soldiers marched gaily down
the street was remembered only In its
humorous light today, after the decision
of Judge Call issuing the injunction re-
straining the sheriff from interfering
with the contest. The news of the de-
cision spread faster than does rumor
of a plague. When the words maintain
ing the injunction. such factors in the
history of the next twenty-four hours,
fell from the lips Of the judge. there
was a mad rushfor hetetegrapn offices.
and the news went over the town like
wildfre. The situation was changed
from suspense to certainty, and the
club members, lately listless, were sud-
denly fired with new zeal. Plaus half
fulfilled. schemes not naterialiZed for
lack of confidence, were renewed. At
the rooms of the Duval Athletic club
the crowd was so great that it took half
a dozen men to keep pathway open for
the pedestrians. The demand for tick
cts was such that nothing but system
prevented wild confusion and a crush.
Finally scheme was arranged by
which the men went in one at time.
finding an egress at another door, and
the stream of ticket buyers was contln-
uons for hours.
The clubmen did not forget to adver-
tise their victory. Half an hour after
the decision band wagon filled with
brass band and having On it signs
painted upon streamers announcing the
Corbett-Mitchell fight for tomorrow at
l o'clock, iolled into Bay street from
side alley and was greeted by vollevs of
cheers as the band played lively airs.
The cheers swelled as the wagon pro-
ceeded up the street, aDd IN front of the
principal hotels and saloons it was
given an ovation. The wagon then
proceeded through the residence por-
ton of the city, where hundreds of
people crowded out to see il and clap
their hands for joy. Every one felt the
enthusiasm as an infection, and the
town went wild. Even those opposed
to the fight could not but smile at the
spirit and joyousness displayed.
Late this afternoon the betting was
llvelier than it has been. the visitors
being in a good humor over the decis-
ion ana more willing than ever to risk
their money.

EIGHT LUNATICS BURNED.
R00EE COUNTY, IOWA. POOR HOUSE

fective Furnace the Cause-No
Attendant in the Building.
BOONE. To-, Jan. "a. The building
OH the Boone county poor farm. in
which the incurably insane were con-
fined, was burned at 10 o'clock last
night, and eight. of the nine inmates
were burned TO death. Only one wom-
an, Mrs. Hubbard, escaped from the
burning building, and gave the alarm
TO the steward. Holcomb, who was in
the main building adjacent. 1t was
then too late TO save the insane people.
and the main building was saved only
by the greatest effort. The steward
says he banked the fires in the furnace
about O'clock, and does not know how
the tire originated, unless from de-
fectiYe tlue.
The dead are: Mary Tucker, John
AnnaSniggS, Anna Soderburg, Christine
Anderson, Christine Peterson, Mrs.
Scott, Tom Leaser, Joseph Craig.

hospital is located, is seven miles from
this city, and word concerning the
disaster did no reach here until 10
o'clock this morning. The building
burned was an old two-Story frame
structure which was as dry as finder.
10 add 10 the intiammable nature OF the
place many of the partitions were
padded with cotton, and some of the bed
clothing was of cotton batting three
inches thick. This was because only
the incuraOle insane who had been re.
turned from the state asylum were kept
there. Those patients were nearly all
violent, and the great amount OF cotton
padding was used to prevent
them iujuring themselves. The
building was heated by a furnace
which was last summer condemned by
a local expert as unsafe, but no atten-
ton had apparently been paid to his
warning, and last nights fire undOubt-
eddy resulted from neglect to replace
the furnace with a better one. 1t is
thought to be certain that the fire
started from defect in the furnace, as
there were no stoves in any of the
rooms, and great care was exercised
that 10 matches should be allowed in
the building. Mr.. HOlcomb. the stew
ard, says he first knew of the fire when
alarmed by Mrs. Hibbard, the only in
mate who escaped from the
building. He was in the main
building which stands but three
feet distant from the crazy
house. When he got outdoors the
flames were bursting from all of the
windows Of the frame structure, and it
was mass OF flames inside. lie burst
open door, but was driven back by the
flames, which i'll few moments had
burned the building to the ground The
main building was saved by pouring on
water which the heat Of the fire had
melted from huge snowdrift alongside
the building. No one saw the eight
people who were burned to death, and
whether they made any effort to escape
can never be known. There seems to
have been no attendant Of any kind in
the building where the insane people
were locked up.

and American mails was begun at this
steamships, the Majestic, of the White
Star line. and the New York, of the
American line.
Each captain will do his utmost to
land his mail matter in London ahead

will count for much in the steamship
company's claim for the government
contract. The New York cleared the
bar at Sandy Hook at 4:22. and the
