Freaks of Drapery.

There is @ great fancy for silken skirts under drapsry of wool. By drspery is meant the proper term covering oversfirts,
 paniers and all skirt ornsmsntation involv- ing folds of material. The gsyest silks are used under sober drspipgs.

Early one morning h. was aroused by his wife and made to under stand that somebody was knocking violent ly at the front door. Putting on a Mght dressing gown, and procuring his trumpet he started of down stairs, prepared to lis ten near the door and ascertain the csus, of so much disturbance.

TOM ALLEN FOR MITCHELL

Corbett is very clever boxer. but
do not think h i'm an aggressive pugilist.
Mitchell is just the size and build for a
champion. He can hit hard, has spen-
did legs and grand physical develops
ment. Mitchell is now matured. When
ne fought Sullivan in France he only
weighed 165 pounds, while in the coming
contest he will at least have ten pounds
more weight, and he is nearly six
years older. Mitchell knows more
about fighting than Corbett: he can hit
harder. while he knows every foot Of
the ring, and how to fight, and where
TO land. Any first-class middleweight.
in my opinion, could have defeated
Sullivan In half the time that Corbett
did. Corbett will have to show up to
better advantage at Jacksonville, in
January. than he did when he met Sui
livan at New Orleans.
The talk about COrbett having the
advantage in height, weight and length
of reach amounts to nothing; Jem Mace
defeated Sam Hurst, who was over six
feetln height and weighed over two
hundred pounds. Tom Savers defeated
Bill Perry. the "Tlpton Slasher," who
was several inches taller, had longer
reach than Sayers and was fully two
stone heavier. Sayers also stood off
John G. Heenan, who was over forty
pounds heavier and several inches
taller, and had the advantage in reach
and science. Heenan was as clever and
scientific boxer as Corbett, while
Savers could not box nor even make a
sfrst-clasS set-to with gloves.

SULLIVAN COMPARES THE
MEN

1t should be great fight. Corbett is
tirst-claSs boxer, very strong, and he
will be i'll good condition. 1t is an i'm
portant consideration, in any contest, to
be in condition, and it is my candid
opinion, if l had paid attention 10 train
ing, should have been the champion
yet. Cor6ett defeated me, or, at least, [
defeated myself; but it is too late in the
day to talk about my only defeat in ten
years.
l must say Corbett is a first-class
fighter; he is very active on his feet.
You must have good legs and hips as
we'll as strong arms and shoulders. to be
success i'll the prize ring. for without
active legs you cannot escape your op-
poncnL'S leads. neither can YOU spring
in to land blow when Opportunity pre-
sents itself. | had no legs when fought
Corbett. l was tied up and he should
have defeated me in few rounds if he
is the wonderful fighter they claim him
to be. What his chances are of winning
the coming fight L cannot say. am sure
he will have his hands full, for he has
to meet man who is tricky and cum
ming. up to every dodge known in either
Queensberry or London prize ring rules,
one who can hit harder than Corbett
can, and who can fight like a demon and
not tire quickly. When | fought Mitch
ell in France l was in better condition
than when fought Corbett. l should
have defeated Mitchell, but | caught
chill, and that affected me more than
any one could imagine.
Mitchell must have improved since he
fought me i'll France. He is in his prime
and has not abused himself as much as
many suppose. l should judge he will
fight at ITO pounds, which weight will
stand to him if the fight is a long one,
and think he will give Corbett all he
can do to win, for he can hit hard, he is
just as clever as Corbett and he has had
more experience in prize-rlng matters.
| do not think the betting should he any
better than even money. Those who are
betting to that Corbett will win are
risking big odds. Sporting men were bet
ting to 1 l would defeat Corbett, but
there was no sense in such betting, for
accidents are always liable to happen in
glove fight. An arm may be sprained
or broken, sickness may attack boxer
in the ring, and no matter how great
boxer he might be. he would have to
give up or be beaten. l am not going
to say whether Corbett will win or
Mitchell will defeat Corbett, but my
sympathy is naturally with Corbett, be-
cause he is an American. am sure the
fight will be a close one, no matter who
wins, and the victor will not have much
to boast about.

WHAT MAsTERsoN THINKS.

Corbett is not going to meet pugilist
who has abused himself, but sturdy
gladiator, a man who possesses pluck, a
ffrst-clasS ring general. who is thorough
ly posted in fighting according to any
rules, and has had far more experience
in the ring than -COrbett, and who
''knows the game from A to IT, Corbett,
it must be admitted, has the advantage
in height. weight and length of reach.
There is no doubt about his stamina.
for his protracted battle of sixty-one
rounds. according TO Queensberry
rules, III San Francisco, clearly proved
he could stay, while his courage cannot
be questioned. In regard to science,

THE JURY IS STILL OUT.
The CHAMBERLAIN CASE rs IN STATU
QUO As YET
THE JURORS WENT no SLEEP.

Judge Jamisou Delivered
Lengthy Charge 40 the Jury,
Defining Crime and the Vari-
Gus Kinds of Verdicts - The
Defense Objected to- Parts of
the Charge-Other News.
Mr.. Brockett concluded his argument
for the defense yesterday morning, and,
after the court had instructed the jury,
the notorious Chamberlain case. went in
for its final settlement. Judge. Jamison
stated in his charge that in order to find
the defendant guilty as charged IN the
indictment they must have proved
every charge made there beyond
a reasonable doubt. Before he
could be found guilty the jury
must have assured itself that the crime
was committed in the presence of an
accomplish and that he took all or
portion of the property from the plant
if for the purpose of converting it to
his own use, and all this at the point of
revolver, before they could bring in a
verdict of guilty as charged in the III
uICllneuI. NO sentiment OF I6eilng OF
mercy must enter into the deliberations,
for the question rested solely on the
evidence in the case. 1t did not
matter what Holbrook'S actions had
been with Mrs. dublin, provided it had
been demonstrated clearly by the evil
dence that Chamberlain had appropri-
ated the property in felonious man
ner. Regarding the alleged marriage
with Mrs. ZuOlin, the court stated it
was not not necessary that civil cere-
mony should have been performed. A
verbal contract and subsequent living
together was sufficient if it were not for
the purpose of cloaking an illicit inter
course. The defense objected to certain
portions of the charge. specially TO that
OF "a reasonable doubt"
Seven forms of verdict were given to
the jury, and then they were turned
over to Officer Gjertsen. 1t was 1l:45
when the jury retired.
AT II O'Clock last night the jury an
announced to the officer in charge that
they mad arrived at no verdict, an d were
anxious to go 10 bed. They were allowed
TO do so, and will take up their de liber-
ations again today.

TRAINER DONOVAN'S FORE
CAST.

Iregard CorDett as the greatest pugil-
ist the world has ever seen in my time.
L know him like book" for when he
was bank clerk in San Francisco and
boxing instructor in the Olympic club,
my friends in that city wrote me about
him. After he boxed with Kilrain in
the Southern Athletic club, in New Or
leans, my friend, Pat Kendrick, wrote
me that Corbett was first-class boxer,
but that he lacked several points neces-
sary to make him champion.
On Corbett's arrival in New York, l
introduced him to tie members of the
New York Athletic club, and showed
him several wrinkles in boxing. was
also his adviser when he was matched
to fight John l.. Sullivan. When l
seconded KiIrain with Charley Mitchell,
when Kilrain was matched to fight
Sullivan for $4,000 a side and the
championship of the world, l
studied Sullivan's style and noted his
weak points. so that [ was in position
to give Corbett information which he
protted by when lie fought Sullivan in
the Olympic club, New Orleans, for
600, the largest stake ever battled
for. Corbett did not use me kindly
afterward, although [ stood in his cor
ner when he was facing man who was
looked upon as invincible. and it was
by my instructions he fought and won.
Since that time, there has been flag
of truce between us. but that does not
Interfere with my opinion of Corbett as
a tighter. l think he Should defeat
Mitchell just as easily as he did Sulli-
van. Mitchell, of course, will be in
splendid shape. He is sturdy and
aggressive boxer and that he can hit
hard there is no denying. He is thor
oughly game, for his contest with Sulli-
van in France proved >that he was not
only game, but a slayer. Corbett has
every advantage over Mitchell and be-
sides, he is better boxer. l think
Corbett is today the cleVerest boxer
living.
The fight will be a more protracted
struggle than many suppose. If Corbett
forces the fighting, 1t will not last over
fifteen rounds, but if he fights on the
defensive and waits for Mitchell to
lead, trusting to counter him heavily.
the fight may last for two hours. If it
is short fight, science will have won
the day. If it Is long one, stamina
will win. Corbett has proved that he
can stay; his slxty-one rounds with
Peter jackson proved it: while Mitch
elPs long battle with Sullivan at Apre-
mont, France, proved he could fight for
hours.
L expect Corbett will win, and have
Instructed my friends to bet OIL him.

could fight forever, but:l made a mis-
take. The only mistake | ever made
iii my priZe-ring career was meeting
Mitchell. who was taller, heavier and
possessed twice my strength. Mitchell
is one of the new school OF boxers; he is
very clever, and he will give Corbett
more trouble to defeat him than Sulli-
van did, and the fight will be a
better one. l think the men will
fight about one hour. You know,
if both men are in earnest, they can
do plenty of fighting and end the con-
test in that time, Corbett should win
beyond doubt, Tor he is taller and
heavier than his rival and has a longer
reach. Height and weight, of course.
make a considerable difference in men
fighting, though some claim that weight
cuts 10 figure when big men contend,
but length of reach does. and Corbett,
having this great advantage backed up
with good driving power he should Win
