End of Prize Fighting.

The end of prize fighting in this coun-
try is in sight. The brutal sport has pref
ty nearly run its course. Public senti-
ment in all the states is against it, and
laws are in force prohibiting it. When
Corbett and Fitzsimmons get out of Ar
kansas they will have about made up
their minds that their occupation is
gone. ll
When a big sum of money cannot be
made out of a prize fight there will be lit
tie inducement to train for contest of
that sort. To make money there must be
a big crowd, and a prize fight to draw a
big crowd must be widely advertised. The
advertisement puts the officers of the
law on their guard and they make it i'm
possible for the prize fighters to carry
out their programme.
The men who were behind the match be-
tween Corbett and Fitzsimmons were sure
they could have the brutal exhibition in
Texas. When the prize fighters and their
hackers were run out of that state they
went to Arkansas. If they get out of
Arkansas without serving term i'm Jail
they will be willing to keep out of the
south in future.
Public sentiment has steadily crystalized
against, prize fighting. There is nothing
that can be said in ats favor, and a great
deal against it. There is no objection to
acquiring skill in boxing and wrestling.
Those sports, within reasonable limits,
may be both interesting and healthful.
| Prize fighting, however, is altogether diff
ferent. The principals mean to hurt each
| other. Usually in their efforts to knock
! each other out, they bruise each other
| past recognition. Their contests are bru-
tai and brutalizing, and they have a bru-
| talizing effect upon those who witness
1 them. 1t is gratifying that prize fighting
is pretty nearly over. The Corbetts and
Fitzsimmonses viii have to seek other
ways Of earning a living

The ola Cemetery settlement.

GHt VIA cemetery
Some Of the aldermen think $500 would
not be too much to pay Christ church for
that portion Of the South Broad street
cemetery which it claims, because, they
say. 1t would enable the city to get rid
Of an eyesore, and the improvement Of
the cemetery would so enhance the value
Of surrounding property that the addi-
tional taxes that would be collected would
more than pay the interest on the pur-
chase price. The argument is good enough
provided it appears that Christ church
absolutely refuses to allow the cemetery
to be improved except on the payment
of $3.50, and the city cannot improve it
without the church's consent. But what
reason can Christ chNch offer for re
fusing to permit the place TO be improved?
We have never heard any. 1t is not pro-
posed to disturb a grave or a tomb. The
removal Of the wall and the making Of
paths viii not lessen the value of the
property. Such improvements would in
crease the value of It. II at any future
time Christ church should want to erect
a building on its claim it could do so.
handsome church building among the
tombs would be as great an attraction to
South Broad and Abercorn streets as the
projected Colonial park. Why, then
should Christ church throw an obstacle
in the way of the proposed Improvement?
If the $500 was to be paid for a quit
claim deed from the church. without any
conditions. another question would be
presented The city might then be justi-
fed in paying the church that sum, be-
cause It would get the right TO take the
kink out of Abercorn street, between
South Broad and Liberty, and at some
future time it might put city hall in
the proposed park
AS the proposition now stands, however
the city would set practically nothing for
its money and would be forever barred
from using the part of the cemetery which
it owns for any purpose other than a
park.
1t seems to us that in the interest of
progress and Improvement Christ church
vestry could not do less than say to the
city: We agree that the old cemetery
should be made more presentable. Make
such improvements in it as may seem to
be advisable. All we ask is that our claim
to a portion of the cemetery lot be recog-
nized and protected
