Where the Big Fight VIII Re.

diagram of the great Corbett-Fitzsim-
mons building was displayed at Dan Stu
arts office at Dallas yesterday. It showed
an octagon structure. covering 400 feet Of
ground or nearly four acres. The follow
ing are its grand divisions: Unreserved
seats. S0.s66; reserved seats. 17.6sS; seats
in balcony 2,4O6; seats for the press, 652
Total, 52,S15. There never was such q the
ater built in the United States, and pos
sibly never will be again.
The democratic wigwam at Chicago only
held $1,000, and the music hall at the
worlds fair no more. The prize ring is IN
the exact center, and will be forty feet
square, elevated four feet from the ground
The 652 seats reserved for the press will
be next around the ring. From thence
there Is a sharp ascent toward the clouds,
dizzy, with marks and squares and pierced
with aisles. As enormous as the capacity
is. 1t Is confidently expected that every

Notes of the Players.

Mills shows almost as much reversal of
form as one OF the horses at the Alexander
Island track does. One day he is as wild
as a March hare, and on another occasion
will go in and strike out twelve men. and
cnly allow few hits to be made off his
delivery.
Winikenan Is hitting the ball hard and
often. He makes a homo run OF triple in
almost every game, and sometimes two or
three OF them. His batting streak is COM
ing just about the right time. too for the
Infantry boys are just beginning to take an
interest in the pennant.
The W. L. l. G. team, the spectators
think, should rot change its infield, but
should play the same men in the same
positions as much as possible. The iniield
that took part in the Fourth of July game
put up model contest, and there seemed
to be no reason for a change. Wise, Wis.,
ner and Wrinkle, the three VS., with Stew
art at the initial bag, are veritable stone
wall. 81
Gilroy is hard working member of any
ball team which is lucky enough to possess
him. He is rafting good back stop, a
good pitcher, and a steady inlielder. His
tatting is away above the average, too.
There is no doubt in the world as to the
Bureaus ability to play ball. Their infield
work is perfect. and all are batters from
the word go. With Bernard and Orspada
to hold Up the pitching department, there
is no reason In the world why the Bureau
should not come out at. the head of the pro-
cession with not single lost game.
If every one on therPest Office Depart
ment team had worked as hard as Nc
Whorter in yesterdays game, the result
would have been different. Brown and
kind of style. but the patrons Of the games
do not pay to go to the park and see
man walk sixty feet, and after throwing
the ball walk back to his position again.

GOOD ADVICE FOR ALL.
"Play Ball." Says MEX Young When
Abused About the Umpire.

The Baltimore base ball team is said to
have sent the following dispatch to Presi-
dent n. E. Young, after Its defeat by St.
Louis Tuesday:
"Send us the worst umpire you have to
Chicago. We were robbed in New York
and St. Louis. While you are doing us, do
us good and strong"
President Young said. when seen in re-
gard to the telegram: "The Baltimore team
is too great and too strong to resort to
such childish methods. Mr.. Jevne is as
good an umpire as there is in the business,
and 1 have not had single complaint
other than that of the Baltimore players
concerning his work. Mr.. Hanlon has
made no protest, and the only unfavorable
criticism Of him comes from the Baltimore
players.
Il do not believe that the Baltimore team
has any reason to kick at the treatment 1t
has received. The team is a great one, but
1t must play bah to win games. and should
not try to blame their defeats upon UNI
pires to whom no one else Objects"

DISASTER AT THE ELKs' SESSION.
Collapse of the Casino Mt Atlantic
City.

Collapse of the Casino Mt Atlantic
City.
The social session rendered by Atlantic
City Lodge to the visiting Elks at the Bal
tic Avenue Casino, Atlantic City, last night
ended in a disaster, in which fully 100 per-
sons were more or less seriously injured
The session had just opened and only one
of the speakers had been heard, when the
building, which has not been used for sew
eral years. collapsed and fully a thousand
persons were thrown to the floor benea th
Many women, the wives of the visiting
E4ks, went down In the ruins. Fully 200
persons, who were On the first floor of the
building and Immediately beneath the ban
quet hall. were crushed beneath timbers
and lay helpless. The fact that all the
electric lights in the building went out at
tho time the building gave way added to
the terrible situation.
Firelnen Called Out.
A double alarm for the fire department
was at once turned in. and the city's entire
force of 200 firemen and every police officer
in the city were called to the scene as a
hospital corps.
The police ambulances and carriages of
every description were utilized to convey
the injured to the city hospital and to their
hotels.
When the police and f1remen arrived on
the scene, the excitement was so intense
that they scarcely knew where to begin
first. An immense crowd of people had
been attracted to the place by the noise Of
tho falling building and the groans of the
unfortunates who were pinned beneath
bricks and tinlbers.
The streets for seve raj blocks were chok-
ed The air was full cf anxious Inquiries
for friends and relatives who were thought
to have been in the building.
Rescuing the Injured.
Within few minutes the police sue
ceeded in clearing the space in the i'm
mediate neighborhood, and stretched ropes
around to keep the crowd back. In the
meantime the firemen had set to work to
eXtricate the wounded from beneath the
mass Of timbers, and they were aided in
their work by the hotelkeepers and resi-
dents near the scene Every house was
thrown open for the reception of the in
jrred. and every available conveyance was
pressed into service to carry them to their
hotels.
Meanwhile physicians were on the scene
and were doing everything in their power
to aid tine unfortunates.
No members of the Washington Lodge of
Elks or eny of their relatives or friends
were hurt in the Casino catastrophe.

Della S. Parnell, the mother of the
great Irish leader, the late Charles
Stewart ParnelI, at public aution a
few days ago, the funds from the sale
aggregating $500. The principal
part of the effects consisted of oil
paintings, pictures, autographs,
vases, urns, and a number of books
printed in the early part of the pres
ent century. This is another DEM
onstration of the fact that the auc-
tioneer is no respector of persons,
and the venerable mother of one of
the greatest statesmen in the world
must share like the humblest and
most undistinguished citizen. 1t is
pity the friends of the great leader
did not raise the money to relieve
the venerable mother of her financial

bassador to Italy, it was said, in
consideration of his campaign con-
tribution, but was forced by the rid

shortly after his confirmation. The

O. - The first questions asked

ONE of the first questions asked
when a SoutherneF goes East to IN
terest capitalists in Southern invest
ments is why the Southern people
do not manifest disposition to IN
vest their own money in such enter
crises. The Eastern capitalists
know from bank statements ana
bank clearances that there is plenty
of idle money in the South, and their
question is natural one. Ihat IS
exactly the trouble with Southern
people. They let their own money
Law idle in the banks, and wait on
foreign capital to come in. If the
Southern people would manifest
more confidence in their country and
invest their own money in local en-
terprises, there would be no need OF
foreign capital. Dnring the past
summer at least dozen cotton mills
were built at different points
throughout North Carolina by local
companies, and now Eastern capt
talists and manufacturers OF cotton
goods are coming in and building
mills in that State. And this would
happen in Arkansas if our home
people would start the movement.

LAW IN OHIO


Lynching with the American peo-
pie, has become a craze. Wher one
man kills another or any outrage is
committed, the lower classes of So
ciety thinkpunishment for the crime
devolyes upon them, and unless they
take the life of the criminal, they are
looked upon as towards and unpa-
triotie citizens It is not wrong for
them to usurp the law, and, if neces-
sary, to kill the resisting officers,
just so they lynch the prisoner.
They save the county the expense
of trial and avoid the risk of the
criminals escape or pardon. In
their own estimation, and, they
think, in the estimation of all other
people, they are the heroes of the
hour, and, as heroes, should be given
a pension, not prison. Masks are
no longer worn by mobs, and, on the
contrary, each participant tries to
be the most prominent.
This is the state of affairs in
America today, but, as all barbaric
traits are disappearing-even prize
fighting-so the days of this most
general and pernicious evil are num-
bered.
An effective way of dispercing
mobs and preventing .ynchings and
at the same time teaching a good
lesson was witnessed in Ohio the
other day. A mob attempted to
wrest a prisoner charged with mrr-
der from the officers, and upon being
resisted, attempted to kill them.
The pleadings of the Sheriff had no
effect, the mob continuing its shoot
ing and onslaught. Pressed into
close quarters, the officers returned
the fire and killed two of the leaders.
The mob then retreated, and before
III couIdfeorganlze, th3 prisoner was
secretly transferred to Jail in an
adjoining county and the militia
called out to suppress the further
attacks of the enraged people.
Were all mobs dealt with this same
way lynching would soon be thing
of the past. All that is necessary
is to show these brutes that the law
is going to be enforced and prison
ers protected at any cost. Let Off
GERS deal with them as they would
with any would=be murderers, as
was the case in Ohio, and they will
soon learn to let the law take its
course.
