Champion Corbett and Ex-Chnmplon
Sullivan Spnr.


Sullivan Spar.
At lilo o'clock last night the last and
biggest event on the program of the benefit
for John L. Sullivan, in the Madison Square
Garden in New York, was in order. 1t was
between Champion Jim Corbett and the
beneficiary. When the men climbed through
the ropes pandemonium broke loose, and
there were loud yells for a speech from the
Boston man.
He stood up and addressed the audience
on one side of the ring, and then had to re-
peat his little speech to the other side of
the house. He said: Ladies and gentlemen:
l thank you very sincerely for your pres
ence here tonight, and also l must thank
the many friends who have come here to
take part in my benefit 1 hope shall al
ways deserve your kind appreciation
Speech, speech. Corbett" was then the
cry. and the champion stepped to the CEN
ter of the ring. He grasped Sulltvan's
hand and said: 1T will always be a pleas
Lre to me to assist my friend, John L. Sui
lvan, and he has only to command me at
any time"
The men then boxed three short rounds,
and the big benefit was ended by the crowd
carrying Sullivan and Corbett into their
dressing rooms.

LONDON, June 2S-in a discussion Of
yachting prospects this morning, the Times
says:
'If Valkyrie III can be handled by sixty

certain that the Americas cup will return
to Great Britain. When measured, it Is be-
lieved that she will not come out much less
than 1S5-rating, which will mean giving
Britannia an allowance of four minutes
on a fifty-mile course. Ailsa will be sailed
to morrow on a light load line. as she was
in the Mediterranean, and almost all of the
crew which left her at Cowes has been re-
shipped. If she resumes her old form, she
will be Valkyrie HIS most formidable op-
ponent. Lord Dunraven is to be commend
ed for having two captains available, es-
pecially as it is an open secret that their
only object is to bring the cup TO England.
In the case Of Lord Lonsdale's new
Eucharis and the Yankee yacht Niagara,
it will be case of machine against ma
chine. and there is every reason to expect
that Eucharis will prove far and away the

Frank Pierre Makes II Confession of
Theft and Sings to His Sweetheart.


Theft and Sings to His Sweetheart.
In the room at police headquarters where
Detective Proctor was under fire for two
days, and where so much uneasiness and
anxiety has been experienced by other
members of the force, there was free con-
cert this morning with but two perform
ers. One of them was Frank Pierre. a col
ored man, a confessed burglar, and the
other was his sweetheart. Emma Hawkins
All the music was played by the man, While
Emma sat there and listened to the strains

Detectives Carter. Rhodes and Gallaher
had arrested him for having robbed the
bar room on the steamer Manchester Of SIG
and pair Of trousers and shoes He was
wearing the trousers, and had $50 in his
pocket when the officers arrested him.
With the exception Of the articles Of wear
ing apparel found on him, the officers had
no direct proof Of his crime, and last
night they went to the house Of his sweet
heart and arrested her. They also recovered
two guitars that Frank had purchased.
When Frank and his sweetheart met face
to face In headquarters this morning he
weakened, and declared that Emma had
nothing to do with the affair.
What do you want to say about it?' De-
tective Carter asked him.
Il did all of it myself" was his response.
and Emma knew nothing of 1t.
This settled the investigation so far as
the police were concerned, and then Frank
played a number of airs on one Of the in
struments he had bought with the stolen
money.
When the concert was over and the time
had arrived when Frank must go to prison.
he asked permission to say goodbye to
Emma, and a great display of affection fol-
lowed. Frank was then taken to court.
and committed to jail for a hearing.

The Honest Shakers and Their
Cure for Dyspepsia,

The shopkeepcr who cheats Us by lying with re-
the butcher who gives short weights, is a thief
However, their knavery touches nothing but our
pocket book. There is another widespread form of
Misrepresentation of far more dangerous and
yillainous character.
We refer to the false statements and worthless
guarantees that frequently accompany medicines.
To guarantee medicine to is to brand It as a
Guack product. II we guarantee to cure dis
ease then we can guarantee everlasting life. for
large majority of cases people die OF disease, the
proportion of violent accidental deaths being
very small.
The Shakers have always been known as a most
upright and honorable people. and their success in
the manufacture Of medicines has also been we'll
known. 1t is therefore, Lot surprising TO find them
pursuing a very original and novel plan for the In
PRODUCTION of their remedy for dyspepsia
These God fearing people. whose motto has al
ways been Try ali things and hold fast to that
which is good" have put upon the market ten-cent
sample bottles Of their product sufficient to give
1t trial.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial Is SO prompt In its
action that for the trivial of ten cents a per-
son can usually determine as to whether or not II
meets the requirements of his There are forms
Of dyspepsia which it won't help but these are very
rare. In most the first dose relieves all dis
tress. and increase Of appetite at once follows.
All druggists have It, and the next time you are
troubled with Indigestion send out and try this pop
ular and successful product. 1t represents nearly
hundred years Of patient Investigation and study

Henry Wilson. colored man. who likes
to see a gloss on his shirt bosom, has been
patronizing Yoe Wings laundry, so he
says. and yesterday when he went to the
laundry he was in the unpleasant situa-
ton of having mo tickee." and the result

Henrys fault that he had lost his ticket
and he intended If possible TO get his laun-
dry. There was war of words and the
proprietor of the laundry stoutly declined
to deliver up the goods without the ticket
Henry made up his mind that he would get
his laundry or there would be trouble
He didn't get his laundry and there was
trouble. Wilson left the laundry and when
he got outside he threw brick through
the window The missile struck the celes-
tial. but fortunately did not do much dam
age
Polh eman HolseY appeared upon the
scene and arrested Wilson. Judge Miller
heard the case today and sent the colored
man where he will not need much laundry
work done for six months.
