BOSTON RIVALS FIGHT.
Lovers of the Same Woman Settle the
Dispute Oh the Field.

Lovers of the Same Woman Settle the
Dispute Oh the Field.
BOSTON, June 2.-Shortly after 9
O'Clock last night three hacks left Hotel
Reynolds for Roxbury. They contained
two duelists and their seconds and
referee and attendants. One of the
principals was young lawyer named
Crowley, having an Office in the Adams
building, and the other was young
newspaper man named Delos F. Gold
smith. The two men have been enemies
for some time past, all on account of
having fallen in love with the same
girl, and some months ago the arrange
ments for the duel were completed.
Both men are reputed to be experts
with the soils, and so it was agreed that
they should settle their quarrel with
sharp foils. Accordingly the pair went
to an open field in the three hacks, and
under the rays from a gas lamp fought
until Crowley fell into the arms of his
seconds. The seconds for Goldsmith
were Forrest Cook and Joseph Bundy,
and for Crowley, Ambrose Lambert and
a man named Graver. The referee was
a man named Toomey, and the party
was accompanied by a young divinity
student named Vincent.
Upon arriving at the field of battle
both principals stripped to the waist
and faced each other. The seconds had
previously attended to all the details.
The men for few minutes tented so
well that neither was injured and it
looked to the seconds as though the
battle would be lengthy one, when
Colds NTH, py quick lunge which
Crowley failed to parry, drew first
blood. After battling for fifteen min.
utes, during which time both men were
wounded, Crowley fell and was caught
in the arms of his seconds.

ENDEAVOR WORK.
Society Plans to Cooperate With Me-
In Lifc- Saving Stations.

Society Plans to Cooperate With Men
In Life- Saving Stations.
Much interest has centered in the
Christian Endeavor work in life saving
stations, and at the international con.
'vention in Montreal, Canada, an ad-
vanced movement was made by adding
the lighthouses and lightships to the
work; also including the United King
dom in the field of operation. Men
were chosen to represent England,
ireland, Scotland and Wales on the in
ternational committee, which consists
of representatives from every state
and province where life saving stations,
lighthouses and lightships are located.
Rev. S. Edward Young, Asbury Park,
N. j., is chairman; Rev. J. Lester
Wells, 11s Grand street, Jersey City,
N. j., is secretary. They delivered adj
dresses at the Montreal convention,
the former speaking Of the spiritual
wants and the latter of the intellectual
and physical needs of the crew.
The life savers of the world are the
bravest men, and continually hazard
their lives for others; they guard TO-
600 miles or more Of dangerous coasts
and have rescued more than a million
people from shipwreck. As the most
of them are isolated from hdme and
-
friends, 1t is highly fitting that world
wide sympathy should be extended te
them, also to the men connected with
the lighthouses and lightships, upor
whom vessels freighted with precious
lives depend for safety. Christian En-
deavor so:ieties located near stations
or lighthouses are recommended Z
conduct appropriate services for tn
crews and also furnish comfort-bags
books, magazines, papers, mltts, nun
lers, wristlets, socks, yarn caps and tn
like, for the comfort Of the surfnen
Those who desire further information
with reference to this noble movemen
may address the secretary.

OREGON ELECTION
The Republicans Carried Every
thing as Far as Heard.
RETURNS COMING IN SLOW
The Populists Knocked Out by Small Ma.
jorities In Several Counties Conceded
Before Election.

PORTLAND, June 5.-The rep MS
are jubilant and claim complete vic
tory throughout the state, having car
ried even Linn county, the old demo-
cratic stronghold, where no republicans
has been elected for many years. Clack-
amas, Washington and Columbia coun'
ties, which were given up to the pop
ulists, have all gone republican. Owing
to wires of the eastern part of the state
being nearly all down, news comes in
slowly from that section, but, after
making allowances, the legislature will
stand as follows: Senate-Republicans
II, democrats 2, populists 6, independ!,:
ents 1. House-Republicans AZ, demo-
Gratis 10, populists 8, giving the repub-
licans majority on joint ballot of 80,
and effectually dispelling any prospect
of Governor Pennoyer being elected to
the United States senate.
In this city and county the repub.
licans make clean sweep with the ex.
cepuon of John Mimic for sheriff. G..
P. Frank has plurality of votes for
mayor over the democratic, populist
and independent candidates. Such a
sweeping victory was hardly expected
and causes great rejoicing, as the cap
ture of the city or legislature by the
populists was dreaded as calamity.
Incomplete returns from ten counties
give Lord, republican, for governor,
1900; Galloway, democrat, $3.50;
Pierce, populist, $3.50. Lords plurality
in the state is estimated at $1,000.
Seven counties in the First congress
sional district give Hermann, repub'
lican, for congress, 4,479; Weather.
ford, democrat, 1890; Miller, pop
ulist, 2,sO9.
In the Second district only two coun.
ties have been heard from and they
give Ellis, republican, 2,722; Raley,
democrat, $40; Waldrop, populist, 1908.
The entire republican state ticket is
elected, except Irwin for school super.
intendent, who is probably defeated BY
Reed, democrat, by small plurality.
Incomplete returns give the populist
state ticket small plurality in Jose
phine county. Lord received GAO votes,
Pierce 500 and Galloway 270, which
represents very accurately the re
mainder of the state ticket, with a
margin in favor of Hermann for con
gresham; also good republican ma
jority for the county ticket.
