She was a tall, fine looking mulatto girl

West Side. Maria had only been Ia the

gar as they we're patent, which can never
be revived.
Like the sick dog in the Bible
Senator Frye returned TO the policy OF

Gray on Wednesday. Senator Frye read
a despatch from Secretary Of the Navy

Jury Decided That Assault and battery
was Not Committed.

JAcKsoNviLLE, Fla, March 2-The jury
in the case against James j.. Corbett,
charged with violating the laws Of Florida
by engaging in prize fght, was out but
10 minutes and returned a verdict OF not
guilty. A broad smile spread sver Cor
belts face rs he heard these rsassnring
words, and the sports who crowded the
courtroom would have cheered had they
not been informed by Judge Phillips when
the jury came that he would send any per
son 10 Jail for contempt who dared express
audible approval or disapproval OF the
verdict
Charley Mitchell was present when the
verdics was announced, and he leaned over
and grasped Corbett by the hand and
whispered congratulations. Mitchell of
course considered the verdict in the light
Of "a practical acquttal for himself, as a
case against him of similar nature Is
pending. The proceedings leading up to
he verdict We're very tame.
Judge Phillips said 10 charging the jury;
"ln considering the guilt or innocence Of
the defendant under the second count Of
the information-fhat i. TO say, the count
charging assault and hattery--if it appears
from the evidence that the blows were

cnllNrRYMEN Al THE Top.

CODN h1MEN Al I f1E W
The EVENING JOURNAL has frequently
advised workiogmen who are dissatisfied
with the wages Of protected factories;
men who have no particular skill In any
craft and those who through lack Of abll
ity, efficiency or energy have failed TO
get on In the city that they can do bet
ter Ia the country. We have no doubt
that this advice Is correct 1t Is GER
talnly capable Of proof for the class,
because the proof is often furnished by
individuals Of the class Such proofs are
constantly coming within the observa-
tion Of every man, they are almost too
obvious to specify.
In the march number Of The Forum
Professor +. G. Peabody, quoting from
some researches Of Llewellyn Smith, In
London, states the results as follows:
As he (ur Smith observes, within an
extraordinary proportion Of city dwell
iugs-not less than 30 per cent Of all
London are country born; secondly, he
adds the much more important fact Of
the dehuite ratio between country birth
aud poverty The proportion Of country
born is, he believes, in inverse ratio to
the poverty Of the district Where
poverty Is greatest In London
there the country born are fewest
aud where prosperity prevails, there the
coun try born predominate. In Benthal
Green. the centre Of poverty, there are
but q per cent Of country born as com
pared with 80 per cent Ia the whole
metropolis, aud 10 Whittchapel there are
ont 20 per cent; but in the other end, 10
May fair. no less than 90 per cent Of the
population were born in The country, and
ia Kensington and Belgravia, more than
one e-half.
This means that the best parts OF
London have the greatest proportion OF
country born people, while those which
have the greatest squalor aud crime
have the least proportion Of country born
citizens He states that the vigorous and
venturesome country born citizens ddv,
the city born citizens to the wall; taxi,
the best OF everything that the city
sifords and finally become the first, Of
among the frst. citizens.
Professor Peabody says that the sta
dstics OF Mr.. Smith prove that Their
Is constant indraft from the couutr!
and then a downdraft. He says, tersely
