MAAS' LAST PART.
Miserable Exit From Life of a One

Miserable Exit From Life of a One
time Popular Comedian.
Eugene Mas, one time Dutch comedian,
man about town, and jolly good fellow,
wound up the pace that kills at the Enlnet
yesterday morning. He died all alone
in the night and his body was discovered
ID the morning.
Acting Coroner rGlaZebroOk last n light made
an examination OF the body and Certifies
that death was due to an erfusion at the
base Of the brain, following acute alcohol
ism The body Will probably be taken
10 Baltimore to-day.
Mas was a fine Dutch dialect imitatOr,
ready witted, popular, generous. big and
handsome. When Drivers summer garden
on Z street was in its prime every man who
went there was friend OF Mas. He ate,
drank and was merry and lived only for
what sporting folks call "a good time"
For some years past he has done no work
but spOrted diamonds, smoked fine cigars,
and had plenty of money TO spend. 1t
came easy, so he said, and was quickly
spent on boon companions, wine, women
and song.
The police have on several occasions
endeavored to free the city Of Mas and
some months ago lie was arrested as a
vagrant, although attired in the heighth
of fashion, with pockets fun of money and
shirt front Illuminated by a sparkler. The
trial resulted in his acquiJtal OF the
charge and since then he has not been
moleSted.
Several months ago he went TO Balti-
more, where he remained until last we-a,
when he returned to the Emmett House.
He was broken in health, spirits, and
pockets, frieRdless and alone.
The story OF his life and the moral 70
be drawn from it is found in his own
words. day or so ago, when he saw man
trundling clam cart in front of his win
dow:
Il would rather be that clam man
across the street than Eugene Mas
His splendid vitality was gone, his
splendid manhood capped, and Ills mind
was filled with wrecks of past misdeedS.
No one called to see him; he went out
seldom, and now and then nursed his
dependency with whisky.
On Monday night he was i'll, the pace
was gone and he crept into bed for his
last sleep.

Buffalo, N Y, Aug. 13.-Jim Corbett

considerable excitement at the Lyeeum
boxing carnival tonight by giving an
exhibition that as not down on the
programme.
During the second round OF their bout
Corbett made punching bag OF McVey,
and the latter, in a spirit OF resentment,
attempted to clinch and throw the cfram-
pion, at the same time hurling vile epithets
1T him.
Corbett pushed McVey to one side with
the remark that if it was fight he wanted
he would be satisfied in the next round
When time was called Corbett, pale Us
