PRIZE FIGHT IN THE CAPITOL.
It Was Between Two Senate Prge.-Th,

It Was between Two Senate Prge.-The
Republiean Kaoekcd Out In Three Rounds.
WARRINGTON. Feb. IA three-round prize
fight took place at the Capitol few days ago
the contestants being two l5-year-ol old pages
OF the Senate. When the late Roscoe Conk-
ling was a member OF tho Senate he encour-
aged the pages OF that august body to cultivate
the use OF boxing gloves. and he headed a
subscription for tho purchase OF a set. Ever
since 1t has been the practice Of the Senate
pages to have set OF gloves. which they used
whenever they could escape the watchful eye
OF the venerable Capt. Bassett. whose princi-
pal duty is TO keep the little fellows in attend
ance upon the Senators.
The recent Corbett- Mitchell fight is doubt
less accountable for the fstic encounter which
took place under the dome OF the Capitol
last Wednesday. The Democratic side OF the
Senate was represented In the ring, which was
laid in ono of the vacant rooms in the Senate
terrace. by a lad OF the name of Jolly Jones.
Jones was seconded by Masters Thompson
and Wooters. The Republican side OF the
chamber was ehampioned by Willie Blair
who was attended by Masters Smith and
Crandall, the latter a son of Lee Crandall. the
silver advocate. The arrangements for the
Of the senate were invited to be present The
private secretary OF q Western senator was
chosen referee and timekeeper, and the fight
was conducted according to the Marquis Of
Queenste err rules, Jones weighs so pounds
and Blair is several pounds lighter.
There was nothing at stake save the cham
ptonship Of the respective sides OF the cham
Der which tho contestants REPRESENTED. and
while the battle was conducted with all earn
estness the result did not interfere with the
friendly relations existing between the two
lads. Here Is an impartial account OF the
night;
Round l-Blair landed heavily on Joness
wind and Jones succeeded In finding liHir's
face with his right aud left. Then both men
fought hard. and when time was called both
were pretty much wIuded
Hound 10th men were up in good time,
and Jones began to force the fighting right
along lie forced Blair to this ropes and would
have knocked him over several times. but was
IN the huTo that he would soon give over.
Time was called Just ms Blair was knocked on
ore knee 10y his enemy.
Round Blair again came to the ring to lie
punished ny his burly antagonist, ana Jones
rushed Al him to give II 10 him Jones ham
mered him hard. and after several s!sdge-
hammer blows on the face Bairs knees
SHOOK. his hofy moved back ward and forward
and then all was over, He took his full ten
seconds 70 recover, and the fight was declared
in favor Of Jones.

fora different style OF foundation. Where It is
attempted to carry heavy loads on the outer
edges OF a building the tendency is to cause
settlement and consequent cracking. The 40
luton Of the problem Is either to carry
the weight from the edges back to
the centres OF the foundations By means
o. lover beams or cantilevers, or to carry the
concentrated loads down to rock or some
other unyielding material The necessity Of
doing this is augmented by the fact that Il Is
not sufficient simply to get an adequate foun-
daton for a building. but It lie necessary also
to guard against danger from adjacent excava-
tons In the future. The material beneath
buildings is now often under such pressure
that 1t will eagerly seek an escape laterally
