New YORK, Oct, 11.-There nov
seems very little doubt that, bar
ring accidents to either man, tn,
heavyweight champion, Jim Corbett
will defend his title against Bol
Fitzsimmous. Today, after hours
of parleying, their managers came
to terms. Jacksonville, Fla, agair
will be the scene of the 6stic en-
counter, as representatives of the
Florida Athletic club, Charles E.
Smith and Joe Vendig succeeded in
making arrangements which proved
satisfactory to both pugilists, and
the club can name any day after
July l, 1895, to bring the match off
Fitzsimmons and Capt. Glorie, his
manager, were first to reach the
rendezvous, Soon after, Brady,
Corbett's manager, appeared, but
Corbett was slow in putting in an
appearance. When he did arrive,
the first word Corbett said, after
introductions, was; where's your
money!"
Glorie replied: "Here's 81 600 to
bind the match"
Corbett pulled roll of ten 81 600
bills and said: "You people have
been talking about $4,000 a side
There's my money, cover it..
Glorie demurred.
Word followed word and small
cyclone was evidently brewing, but
Corbett finally said: 'Well, I'll put
up my $4,000 now and you can put
up yours when you like. 5"
He added 9TH fight Fitzsim-
mons any time after July l, next
year, and not before. I'm making
money on the road and will not can
Gel any of my engagements on any
account. 1t is only a waste of time
and words to talk of fighting before
July l."
Fitzsimmons and his manager f.
nally consented to have the fight
come off after July |, and then the
articles Of agreement were discuss
ed, but as the signing of articles to
fight is against the laws of this
state the articles will not be signed
here. The articles are similar to
those signed by Corbett and Sulli-
van.
The question of purse was next
considered. Three men were in the
room ready to make offers. Cap
tain Williams, of the Auditorium
club of New Orleans; President
Scholl, of the Olympic club of the
same city, and Joe Veudig, of the
Florida Athletic club.
School said; "The Olympic will
give $25, OOO."
Capt. Williams claimed he had al
ready offered $25, 1000.
Joe Vendig raised the ante and
said, as he threw five 81 900 bills on
the table. "The Florida Athletic
club will give 100000, and here's
IS, 900 as a guarantee"
Scholl raised the bid to $40, 900
and Vendig went 81 900 better.
School offered $4,000, but as he
was not prepared to make the de-
post, Corbett said said he would
sign for Jacksonville.
Fitzsimmons made objection for
awhile, but finally consented, The
club will allow 81 900 to each man
for training expenses and each will
train three months prior to the
fight.
Corbett's $40, 900 was handed to
"Al" Smith as temporary stake,
and Capt. Glorie, on behalf of Ftz-
simmons, will next Monday deposit
81, 800 with the same man, So, 800

THE SAME GIRLS.
A Sympathetic Traveller Makes An
Accidental Discovery.

A man had occasion to go to the
union depot one afternoon to
meet his wife. When he had got
to the station he found his train
was half an hour late, and he
bought paper and sat down.
Not long after he had seated
himself, a rather pretty girl, VIII
wore pink waist and had nice, red
cheeks and clear blue eyes, and who
looked to be not over II, came and
sat down next to him. The man
who was waiting for his wife took a
casual look at the girl and went
back to his paper.
Pretty soon another pretty young
girl, who also wore a pretty pink
waist, and had blue eyes and Il
fresh complexion and all that sort
OF thing, came along and stopped in
front of the first girl. The second
pretty girl looked as if she wanted
to cry. The said, with tremulous
voice: "Why, Nettie, what do you
think2 The fares a dollar"
"a what?" gasped Nettie.
"A dollar, and she told us it was
only fifty cents, and | haven't got
money enough to get the tickets;
and, oh dear, l don't know what
we will do"
She sank down beside Nettie and
the two looked at the tiled floor
with very solemn faces. Presently
Nettie looked up and said: I'll
take a walk around the room. Per
haps there is somebody here |
know. She made the tour of the
room and came back with her face
gloomier than before. NOBODY
here / ever saw before" she said
brokenly The other girl sprang
to her feet. 'I'm going to tell the
ticket man just how it is, she said.
Perhaps he will take what we've
got and let us send him the rest. I"
She came back with tears in her
eyes. 'He won't" she said.
The man who was waiting for his
wife heard all of this. His heart
was touched So he leaned over
and said; "Ibeg pardon; but ladies'
THAT is--will you allow me to
help you In your hour of trouble2"
The pretty young ladies started
and looked at the man with fright
ened airs. The man FASTENED to
reassure them that his intentions
we're honorable, and, after many
protests and arranging for repay
ment and exchange of names and
all that, he gave the pretty girls
$l.l5, and they thanked him pref
tily and went to get their train,
1t so happened that the man )
wife did not come on that train,
and he went down to another train
In the evening, While he was sit
ting on a bench waiting for the
train he got to thinking of his af-
ternoon experience and concluded
he had done right worthy act.
AS he was in the midst of his train
of thoughts pretty girl in pink
waist sat down beside him. Pretty
soon another girl, looking all woe.
begone, came along and said; "Why
Nettie, what shall we do2 The
fares a dollar"
The man who was waiting for
his wife got up and walked slowly
to the door, He had seen a great
light, They we're the same girls.

willingly accept the part assigned him. But
these arguments seemed to lose their furce

abandoned me to Gordon, who, gauging my
feelings By his own, stuck to me loyalty
The strangeness of my behavior did not es
cape the notice of Taras. More than once
on our way home found him regarding me
with curious interest from his corner in the
compartment. and in saying good night"

He must have thought Gordon guilty of

significance in Gordon's absence which was
obvious enough to me. Kavanagh had
warned him to hold himself in readiness,
and he was staying at his chambers for the
call which ] was now certain would soon
be made.
Nothing occurred during the forenoon.
but we had scarcely finished dinner when

The ring was not on the finger of that hand
NOT where he was to have worn it If moth
ing could be done. But waited for a more
decisive proof. the signal which was to bid
me act.
Slowly he drew the glove from his right
hand. The ring was on that finger, and rs
he nicely folded the gloves on his knee, pass
ing the har% with the glittering ring over
them, he cast swift glance at me to make
sure that the signal was understood.
