SENATOR'S SHOCKED.
Exceptions TAX en- to the Worlds Fair
Award Medal.

Washington, Jan. 25.-There is tenn
pest in the teapot of the medal of awards
for the Worlds fair for the design of
which $4,000 was paid. The proofs of
the medal received from the mint shocke i
the sensibilities of some of the senators
and other gentlemen interested IN the
matter. 1t was stated that these proofs
did not correctly represent the medal and
an authorized cast was secured. Yester-
day the original of the medal was taken
to the senate committee for exhibition to
tho senators, who we're greatly shocked
by the realism in the figure.
Senator Wilson said he was against it,:
Senator Pugh expressed the opinion that
the artist ought TO be fined; Senator Cul-
lom expressed the opinion that it was un-
fit for exhibition and Senator Villas said
that he would protest to Secretary Carl
isle against its being issued, and that if
the secretary did not interfere he would
introduce resolution in the senate con.
demning the use of the design.
One side of the medal is historical and
represents Columbus just stepping on the
shore of America with his head raised o.
high, giving thanks to the Almighty, the
boat which brought him from his vessel
behind him. The reverse side is emblem
matical and supposed to typify America,
on the left of the shield, bearing the words
Ell Pluribus Unum, to the right is a tall,
stalwart, full-grown man with full front
in state of perfect nudity.

THE FIGHT BY ROUNDS.
Round 1--Corbett led off with left on
Michell's chin. Each exchanged body
blows and Jim reached for Charles left
eye heavily. Mitchell touched Corbett in
the ribs; another exchange and Mitchell
clinched. Mitchell here gets in blow on
Corbett's neck and Jim landed right
and left. Again, just as time was called,
Mitchell made good body blow and
honors we're easy in the first round.
At this time it looked as if it was to be
wicked fight.
Round PA wild exchange and clinch
took place when Corbett upper-cut his
opponent and they came together. Mitch
ell landed hard on Corbett's ribs, and as
Mitchell came up Corbett caught him on
head, staggering him. Corbett upper-cut
Mitchell again and landed with his right
on Charles ribs, Mitchell reaching Jim's
chin. After a sharp rally with Corbett
having the best of it, Mitchell got in twice
on Corbett's neck. Then Corbett knocked
him down twice in succession. Jim first
hoored his man cleanly and knocked him
down again. As he essayed to rise the
gong saved Mitchell, and the second
round closed amid tho widest excitement.
Round s. Mitchell came up rather
groggy. Corbett rushed at him swinging
his right and left heavy on Mitchell's
neck. Charlie went down. He took the
full time to arise and then Corbett
rushed at him like tiger. Mitchell
clinched. Corbett threw him off and
hoored him with stiff right handler.
Again Mitchell took all tho time all
lowed to rise, and when he advanced to-
ward Corbett the latter swung his right
with deadly effect on Charles nose.
Mitchell reeled and fell on his face. help
less. The referee counted l, 2, 8, 4, 5, 6,
Z, 8 and9.
Mitchell was knocked out. The referee
declared Corbett the winner.
CHAMPION OF THE WORLD.
Mitchell's face was covered with blood.
He was carried to his corner in helpless
condition. The time of the fight was
nine minutes. 1t was all Corbett's bat
tie, though Mitchell made fair show in
the first round.
The men did not shake hands at the
of the fight. The referee called
on them to do so but neither responded.
The contest was for purse of $4,000
and the pugilitic heavy weight champion
ship Of the world. Fully 1000 sporting
men witnessed the fight. Corbett is now
receiving an ovation. Sporting men do
not believe that John l.. Sullivan will
make good his declaration and challenge
Corbett again.

Washington, Jan. 25.-Iu the senate the

unauthorized by law and that such bonds

To-DAy's HOUSE,
The Democratic opponents of the in
come tax, who believe that the internal
revenue bill is to be offered as an amend
ment to the tariff bill determined in pur-
suance of the policy adopted at the meet
ing of the New York delegation yester-
day, to throw every parliamentary obsta-
Gle in its way. Accordingly as soon as
the journal was read this morning Mr..
Bourke Cochran, of New York, made the
point of no quorom and the speake or
under the rules was obliged to order a
roll call.
The Democratic opponents Of the in
come tax declined to answer to their names,
but attempted to break quorum unsuc-
cessfully. The roll call developed the
presence of 2O2 members.
Before The consideration of the tariff
was resumed Mr.. Hopkins, Republican,
of Illinois, asked that nm hour be set
aside far the consideration of the lead
schedule
Mr.. Cochran objected and the house
went into committe of the whole.
Mr.. Wilson tried to make an argument
to close the debate on the pending amend
ments relating to cotton machinery.
Mr.. Cochran objected and Mr.. Wilson
moved that the debate be closed. Mr..
Cochran filibustered, but could only rally
to his support the ten New York mem
bers, not sufficient to secure tellers, and
the motion was carried.

England Grows Wratl,y.

London, Jan. 25.-The Financial News,
in commenting upon interviews with
Messrs. Sage and Reinhart in it's article
entitled, "American Robbers" says that
their statement about the financial de-
preston are beside the mark. All that
it required is plain answer to its plain
question, whether Mr.. Reinhart purpose
ly misled its New York correspondent,
when he declared that the Atchison in
terest would be paid. 1t is not so much
the misfortunes of the American railways
that English investors complain about,
but it is the trickery Of which they are
made victims, by men who ought to act
in straight forward manner.

WASHINGTON NEWS,
More Time for the Tariff Debnte-The
Income Tax-War on Indian
Agents

Washington, Jan. 25.-Thomgs Donald
addressed the house committee on Indian
affairs this morning, recommending the
abolishing Of twelyaxgencies, one of them
the Pueblo Indian sgsncy in New Mexico.
LIVELY sQUABBLF.
A spirited contest over the recently
established system of detailing army Off
GERS to officiate as Indian agents is on
foot in the house committee on Indian
affairs, and may be transferred to the
door. Representative Picker, of South
Dakota, has precipitated the fight by
bill stipulating that none but civilians
shall be appointed to these posts. Every
member of the committee is enlisted for
or against the new system, its adherents
contending that army officers are better
qualified to deal with the Indians, less
subject to improper influences, and their
service saves special salary list. The
opponents Of the plan declare that the
army officers are disposed to be arbitrary
and harsh, lack business experience, and
that the army is not designed for such
service.
If the Pickler bill fails of endorsement
by the committee, It's supporters threaten
to attach an amendment excluding army
officers from eligibility to the Indian ap-
preparation bill.
GOT ANOTHER.
The Washington Evening STAR recog-
niZed as one of the most successful aud
influential afternoon papers in the United
States, has Joined the Associated Press
and abandoned the United Press.
OPINION OF A FEW.
A large number of Democrats in the
house believe the adoption of the income
tax as a part of the tariff bill will defeat
the entire measure,
NORE TIME.
The extension of the tariff debate ap-
pears to be inevitable. The friends of
the income tax want more time. Oppo-
nents of the measure are willing to CON
cede them additional time rather than that
so i'm portant measure should be added to
the bill without full debate. II two days
are added the debate will be carried over
to Wednesday, January 81, and the final
vote on the Wilson bill will bo taken on
Wednesday next ut pm.

An Alleged Miracle.

At Radiccna, in Calabria, n statue of
the virgin which had stood quietly for
one hundred years in the village church,
suddenly began To move its eyes on the
9th of September last. The miracle
was seen by all the inhabitants, who
took tho atuc out that night and car
ried it ABOUT in procession, when a
strange halo in the shape of the cross
was seen around the moon. From that
day the Church of the Madonna of the
Mountain has been crowded day and
night, pilgrimages TO her arc being or
ganizcd, gifts are pouring in, and nj.

The Tragic End of viii BiIson.

Will Bilson's dead! He is. They say
That Le was slain election day.

And Jumped upon him with both feet
Aud kicked and pounded him to DEATH"
The papers said. With bated breath
We read the shocking news. And yet
We mourn his loss with scant regret,

Who talked continual (.hrough his hat)
About free trade and rot like that.

They found poor Willie flattened out
And lying prone upon the ground.
A fearful sight was he when found.
Prostrate he lay, with staring eyes
Upturned in horror toward the skies.
Does Willie know
Who struck the blow
That laid him low?
A fearful sight indeed was he
A sight so pitiful to see
That we who saw 1t needs must own
'rwould move to tears heart OF stone.
Stark dead he lay upon the street,
Bcsmeared with blood from head to feet
Az! every stitch Of clothes he worej
Was soaked with William BilsoD's gore
His brow was marked with corded veins,
While gaping wounds disclosed his
brains.
Both ears were gone;his face was gashed
His bloomin' nose was badly smashed;
His testh--those gems OF pearly white
o.! where were they? Knocked out Of
sight.
His arms and legs. and body. too,
Were bruised, confused, and black and
blue.
Examination proved, In fact.
That all his worthless bones wer,

Odd Nams. for Birds.

There are some odd names for game
birds far down the Chesapeake. A
small shy snipc that flies with twit-
tering noise Is called the horsefoot
snipc, because of its fondness for the
horse-foot or horseshoe crab. II is
called also the turnstonc, from its
habit Of ovcrturning pebbles in search
OF food. The telltale snipe bears that
name because IL always sounds a note
Of alarm ut the sight of gunner.
Chesapeake gunncrs believe that sim
gle tclltale can clear a whole region of
game birds. The widgeon is locally
called the bald pate, and the willet Is
so called because OF its ory: "Will-wili-

An observer, says correspondent of

little table in which he arranges the
principal cities and towns of the world
according to classification which has
ut least the merit of novelty. Each
town is considered from the point of
view of the trades which are carried ON
in IL. According to these statistics in
Paris there reside the most tailors, up
holsterers, bonnet makers, BARRIERS, adj
vocates and men Of letters, men or
women. In London we find the most cab

printers, booksellers nnd-though most

In Amsterdam we find the most are
dealers and money-lenders; Brussels is
celebrated us the place where the larg-
