CALLED HIM A MUTTONHEAD
An Insult to the Great and Only John
l.. Sullivan.
ESCAPE OF BILLY DELANEY
The ekilrain.O'DOnnell Match Decided q
Dr0w-Mr. Sullivan Questions the
Adjudication of the Referee
and Is Iusultcd.

Boston, March 1S.-After an absence
of four years from the ring, Jake Kill
rain, of Baltimore, faced Steve O'Don-
nell, Of Australia, better known as Cor
belts sparring partner, for eight rounds
tonight at the Suffolk Athletic club.
The contest was declared draw
amid the widest excitement, the like of
which has never been witnessed in Bos-
ton. Kilrain had plenty of sympathiz-
ers, among them John l.. Sullivan, who
occupied a seat behind him. He urged
his old time opponent on during the
fight and it seemed to give Kilrain en-
couragement.
O'Donnell, although a much lighter
man than Kilrain, did not show up to
advantage, and he disappointed the
spectators, who expected to see a clever
fighter. 1t was apparent as soon as
kilrain stepped into the ring, that he
had been drinking and was not in fit
condition to fight His stomach was
large and he was very heshy. He had
ana it was used to advantage.
At times it looked as though he would
not be able to continue on his feet as
his wind was poor but at critical times
he rallied and showed wonderful
strength. When the fight was finished
Referee Sheppard held his decision for
a few minutes, while the 1.5OO specta-
tors yelled "Kilrain" at the top of their
voices.
When he called the contest a draw it
met with the approval of every person
in the hall.
SulIivan's Opinion.
At the close Of the contest John l..
Sullivan leaped into the ring, and
graspng Kilrain by the hands. con-
graduated him on his good showing
and then rushed over to Referee Shep-
perd declaring that the bout should have
been decided in favor of Kilrain. Shep-
perd did not appear to mind Johns
argument, but Billy Delaney, one Of
ODonnelrs seconds, exclaimed: Don I
talk to that muttonhead," referring to
Sullivan.
Sullivan gave a war whoOp and
sprang at Delaney, who jumped from
the ring and made for on ante room.
Some of Sullivans friends seized him,
and Delaney can thank the gentlemen
that he is not now in the hospital
John fumed for few minutes, but as
the object of his anger did not put
in an appearance he went out into the
cold, cold world, vowing vengeance on
Delaney.

A Pleasant Social Event.

They had dance down in Free
water the other night, and if re-
ports are true IL was avery enjoy
able affair. Ole Smith, young
desperate apprentice, displayed
and fourished revolver and made
things lively for the merry party
present. Another young man
elected young Smith from the build
ing, and deprived him Of his gun,
but in the operation brushed up
against a man of "honorn who
dwells somewhere in that neck O.
woods, and that of course means
fight with people OF his class, so the
would be peacemaker was compell-
ed TO vanquish the young Free
water native before he would be
satisfied. 1t is said these pleasant
little dancing parties will last all
winter and it is further understood
that the citizens OF that locality
contemplate calling out the militia
when they have the next one.-Mil-

cession arrived the condemned
men were tumbled out and made
to kneel with their backs to the
mandarins. Then the five heads
men began their deadly work. The
first head fell clean off. When the
heads Of the seven men were cut
off the vast crowd gave great
shout and the people clapped their
hands and departed. The heads
were hung in aprominent place IN
the city as q warning. The man
darins professed to fear further
trouble from a crowd of foreigners
who were AIMED with revolvers,
but there was no trouble.
The viceroy is delaying the ex-
ecution of others, hoping for un-
deserved clemency. Punishment
following the crime so soon is un-
usual over foreign troubles. The
executions will have good effect
in showing the people that-the mat
ter is serious. Bad feeling is
spreading throsgh the province be-
cause Of the delay in the execution.

How The MaIdenses Dress.

The native dress Of the Walden
ses always attract attention, especi-
ally that of the women, which is
exceedingly picturesque. The
women's dresses are made short,
with plain waists and full skirts,
barely reaching to the ankles.
They disdain everything resemb.
ling a corset, and it is scarcely pos
sible to distinguish by her dress a
girl of fourteen from matron of
forty, save by the bright-colored
handkerchiefs which all the young
girls wear knotted around their
necks; and all wear little trian-
gular shawl, thrown ovel the shoul-
ders, crossed over the breast, and
tucked in at the waist. Their head
dress is white cap of pretty, an
tique design.
The wardrobe Of o Waldensian
baby also deserves word in pass
ing, AS soon as born, the little
one is wrapped in q narrow woven
strip Of heavy cloth, from six to
eight inches in width, beginning at
the feet and extending to the neck
and down again to the feet, where
It is tied with tape. The little
one is kept thus incased for three
or four months, unable to move
hands or feet. This, together with
little checked apron, short sack
of bright red or blue, and tiny
round cap for the head, made Of
knitted zephyr, constitutes the
baby's wardrobe. While the little
ones peculiar dress attracts our
notice, the clothing of an American
infant no less excites the wonder
and surprise of a Waldensian
mother.--From "The Waldenses in
America" from Demorest's Maga-
zine for October.

Accident.

The East CregonIan Tells of Strange
Accident.
A very strange thing took place
at the ranch Of John Harvey, IL
miles from Pendleton this morn
ing. Mr.. Harvey had loaded a
wagon and trail wagon with 20
sacks of wheat each and to
them were hitched six horses. He
called to his children to bring him
a drink of water, and they came
out into the road. A 3 year-oId
girl climbed ON the front wagon
wheel and remained there until the
horses were started. Mr.. Harvey
did not notice her, and she fell in
front of the wheel. He strongly
asserts that the wheel ran on the
child's body, resting on the breast
and remaining in that position un-
til be got off, lifted the wheel,
started the six horses and allowed
the wheel to drop on the ground
clear Of the chiId's body. The lit

Persistent Rumors Arise from Mcneil
and TYIer's Action.

and Tyler's Action.
Rumors are again current in To-
cal railroad circles that the Wash
ington & Columbia River railroad
will soon pass into the hands of
the 0. r. & n, says the Portland
Oregonian. Whether there is any
real basis for the report is not
known, and it is probable that the
endeavor of Major Mcneil to secure
for his company, increased traffic re-
lations with the Eastern Washing
ton road, is the real cause of
awakened interest in the matter.
Mr.. W. d. Tyler, president OF the
Washington 4 Columbia River
road, passed through the city last
Friday, en- route from New York
city. On Saturday evening Major
McNeill left for the east. His des-
tination is given out at his office
here as Chicago. Mr.. Tyler un-
doubtedly has some deal on in con-
nection with his road. Just what
it is no one in the city seems to
know. When Mr.. Tyler was here
he refused to be interviewed on the
subject. Whether Mr.. Tyler's road
will be absorbed by the 0. R. & N.
Co. remains to be seen. Railroad
men, most competent to pass judg-
ment on the matter, do not believe
that any such arrangements is be-
ing perfected.
Major McNeill, a short time be-
fore his departure for the east, IN
formed an Oregonian reporter that
the O. r. q N. Co., with its reorg-
anization plans almost consummat.
ed, would not be likely to purchase
other roads. "As far as Mr.. Tyler
and the Washington & Columbia
River road is concerned" he added,
traffic relations are all that has
been considered. / am extremely
anxious to get all the business pos
sible for the 0. r. & N. Co., and
the Northern Pacific is now haul
ing most of the grain collected by
the "Hunt" system. i'll can get
the business it will be beneficial to
the O. r. & N. Co. AT this time I
am not prepared to say whether I
can get the business" Negotia-
tions may be continued on this line
by Major Mcneil and Mr.. Tyler in
the east.

he will 80 direct to New York, stop.
ping day or two in Chicago on
the way, says the Spokane Chron-
icle. Mr.. Lanius has invented a
process for the reduction of ore, of
which he states several successful
experiments have already been
made.
A few days ago he returned from
Rossland, from which point he
shipped twenty tons Of ore from
the LIE Roi mine to Butte, where it
has been reduced by his process.
The experiment was a complete
success and he demonstrated the
fact all along claimed by Mr.. Lam
luz, that he can reduce ore at d
cost not to exceed 81 per ton. The
success Of the experiment at Butte
and other places has caused num-
Der Of capitalists to offer assistance
to Mr., Lanius, and last night he
informed Chronicle representative
that be had secured 100000 back

York would begin erecting plants
at different points.
The value Of this invention can
be realized when the fact is con-
sidered that it only coat one dollar

ed the veins in the temple SO as to
leave marks which DIR. Guyon
noticed several hours later, after he
had been called to attend the child.
Mr.. Harvey said he tried to lift
the wagon wheel after the accident
occurred, but was unable to raise
it.
DR.. Guyon made examination
and found absolutely no injuries,
the ribs being sound, the heart ac-
tion normal and no evidences of
internal injury nor any to the
spine. Mr.. Harvey is certain that
he lifted the wheel from the child's
body, though in his excitement he
may have seen her almost beneath
the wheel and in his natural anx-
iety to save his child's life been
possessed of an abnormal strength.

On his farm west Of the city says

cultivating a variety of pumpkin
known as the Mammoth pump
kin considerable larger than the
ordinary kind and a terra Gotta

been finding favor in the east, and
fruit men who have grown it rec
ommend its culture in every state
in the Union. Mr.. Oliver purchas-
ed and planted some seeds last
spring, and has a good yield of the
fruit. He intends to plant more
next year. So far as known, these
are the only Mammoth pumpkins
in the northwest.
