There is a vast difference between

one In Tennessee or Alabama. With a
governor like Mckinley the law 10 en-
forced to the letter and mobs are power
less TO interfere. In the latter states
mob law obtains and the authorities

Mitchell applied a coarse epithet to
the Californian and the latter refused
to shake his hand. AS a result the
champion lost complete control of him
self in the second round and would
have fought foully. 1t took the united
efforts of his seconds and the referee
to prevent him falling upon Mitchell
when he was down on one knee and
once or twice he did actually strike
Mitchell lightly when in that position.
Jack Dempsey had to slap him in the
face half a dozen times to awaken him
TO the situation and nobody following a
strict Interpretation of the rules could
have complained had Referee Kelly
awarded the battle to Mitchell. But
Mitchell had nobody at his back who
semed capable of compromising the
gravity of the situation, and the battle
went on despite the fact that the Sec
onds of Corbett were continually break
ing into the ring to control him.
Mitchell seemed like a child in com-
p%arison with Corbett, but he gave the
champion a good battle, and in the
opinion of several good judges had a
slight advantage in the first round.
He was many pounds lighter than his
opponent, and lacked the height and
reach of the man from California, who
has climbed to the tOpmOst round of

There had been no great event in the
prize ring since the defeat of John L.
Sullivan by Corbett in September, 1892,
and the class and the records, as well
as the standing and titles, of the two
men gave the contest from the very

HANGED FOR MURDER.
George II. Painter Dies on the Scafold il
Chicago.

George II. Painter Dies on the Scarold il
Chicago.
George H. Painter was hanged il
Chicago Friday morning at : O'Clock
for the murder of Alico Martin.
Painters attorneys made q desperate
effort to ave his life, and the con.
demned man was twice reprieved by
Gov. Altgeld on the strength of alleged
new evidence of his innocence. The
Governor, however, finally decided that
this evidence was not of sufficient
weight to warrant executive interior.
ence and the sentence and the law was
carried out. a horrible acct
dent attended the execution.
When the drop fell the rope
broke with a snap and the doomed
man sank to the floor with the black
cap saturated with blood. Horror
stricken, the attendants rushed for
ward to where Painter lay gasping.
Hurriedly picking him up, they car
ried him TO a chair. The physician
made an examination. and found that
he had tainted and that life was not
extinct. Immediate preparations for a
rehanging began and Il new rope was
put up. 1t was but the work of a mo.
ment to put the new rope in place. and
when the trap fell the last time, ueath
speedily ensued.
The crime for which Painter suffered
the extreme penalty of the law wa the
murder of Alice Martin, at So Green
street, on the night of May :, 1891.
The couple lived as mar and wife. The
murder, which was most brutal in its
nature, is shrouded in mystery, which
the latest development, in the case have
only served 10 deepen. Only this much
is known: At about midnight Painter
was seer to enter the house. A
short time later he ran down
the stairs eXclaiming, My God,
some one has killed my Alice" He
rushed in search of the police, who ar
rived a few minutes later, and going
to the room, found Alice Martin dead
with the imprint of a strong hand
on her throat. Her head was crushed
by blows which had evidently been
dealt with a chair found lying broken
on the floor. The walls and rooms
we're spattered with blood. Painter
was arrested and from that time until
his death he ~strenuously denied his
guilt. The evidence upon which he
was convicted was purely eircumstan-
tial,

in that tistic atmosphere which was
largely responsible for the longevity Of
the rules of the London prize ring and
for the hardness with which those of
the Marquis of Cueensberry crept into
public favor on either side of the A..
lantic. The fact that the champions
of England and America consented to
an encounter under the latter rules
and under the restrictions imposed by
the articles of agreement is proof ir
itself that the new school of pugilism
has already crowded the old into the
rear.
