MADDEN AN EASY VICTIM
Jimmy Barry Easily Defeats Him
at the Empire Athletic Club.
Handler and Harry Fisher Put Up
"a Good Ten Round Fight
to Draw.

Maspeth, L. l., Oct. 21.-About 800
sports were present at The Empire Athletic
Club tonight. The main attraction was
the twenty-round bout between Jimmy
Barry, of Chicago, and Jack Madden, OF
Brooklyn.
The contest practically decided the
1O5-pound championship OF America, as
both lads are champions in their class In
the Wcst and East respectively. The open
ing bout was at catch weights between
Jimmy Handler OF Newark, and Harry
Fhher,or Brooklyn, who boxed ten rounds
TO draw.
The attendance had increased to about
1000 when the star of the evening came
into The ring. John l. Sullivan occupied a
seat in one of the boxes and was loudly
chcered. The seconds for Madden were
Jack Barry, John McTieruan, Dick Howell
and George Insly. Barry was looked after
by Tom o'Rourkc, Prof. De Forest and
Caspar Leon.
Barry outfought and apparently out
classed Madden from the very start. He
knocked Madden down In the second
round and landed where and when he
pleased. In the fourth round he had
Madden all bat out, when the referee,
seeing the Brooklyn boy had no chance Ia
win. stopped the bout and declared Barry
the winner. One minute and twenty-three
seconds Of the round had elapsed.

A Sharp Trick.

An amusing thing occurred while I was at Yokohama, says a recently re- turned traveller. An official notice of the government had been published in the Japanese newspapers saying that all Chinese who desired to depart must do so by certain date, CT else remain until the war was over- Thereupon- An Shing, big clothing dealer of 10 Water street, called all the Chinese to- gether, and they all agreed to go They got their goods to the dock, and finally aboard steamer, with themselves, and the steamer pulled out. At the last minute it was found that the wealthy merchant had held his goods and slipped back to the city. He at once resumed business, having got rid of all opposition merchants, and IS now roil- ing in riches because of the great busi- ness he is doing.

WISE men can ve good advIce, but the wisest of men cannot compel the acceptance of their advice Ex-SpeRker Reed's substitute for the Cleveland gold pond bill, which declarations of sena- tors made sn impossibility before 1t was voted upoa bv he house, proves the truth of this statement. Mir. Reeds blll would, if enacted int law, prov de the Roveru meut with means to raise the gold reserve fund to its proper amoun', and by providing the secretary of the Urea, ury with money to meet deficien- cies in the revenues of the government until s1ch time as the revenues of the government should ex 'eed the expendl- tures would ke-p the gold reserve iutact. Here is MT. Reeds statement of the situatlou- "We are redeemIng green backs when they were presented. II the revenue was equal to the expendi- lures whenever 6 greenb was redeem ed it would stay in the treasury, snd this notwithstanding the fact the s ere tsry is authorized to reissue; for 1t is not either the authorization or even the demand of the law that they shall be ressued that causes tDe trouble. IL Is the fact that they are reissued. It IF the fact that ther resistance causes this continued depletion of the trea- eury."

Costly Seed Distribution.

The Secretary of Agriculture has rec omm snded that the costly seed dlstri-
 button heretofore made by ''Senators, Representatives and Delegates in Con- gress, and which has cost the people of the United States more than S250, 900 annually, be hereafter managed in such a way that the annual expenditure of only S2o, ,00J will accom plIsh far more satisfactory results. The plan proposed is em bodied in bill which is now being considered by the Agricultural Com mittees of both houses of Congress. This provides:
 "That all seeds, bulbs. trees, shrubs, vines, cuttings and plants shai, be distributed 70 the Agricultural Experiment Stations in the several States and Territories to be by them re- distributed to such persoos as shall en- gage to maae full tests of the same, un- der the direction of the stations, and 10 furnish the stations with written reports of these tests on blanks to be furnished by the secretary of Agriculture, and the Secretary of Agriculture shall allot, to such Agricultural Experiment Sta tions as make application to him, such amounts from any funds appropriated under the provisions of this act as may seem to him advisable to enable the sta tiuns tO purchase seeds, bulbs, trees, shrlbs, vines, cuttings and plants for distribution in the manner aforesaid, and to pay the expense of such distribu- tiOn, with due regard to the varying conditions and needs of the respective States and Territories"
 h recommending the change Secre. tsry Morton remarks:
 "FOr the present wasteful and extrav sgant distribution of seeds 1t IS proposed to substitute a limited distribution of new and rare varieties through the Ag- rIcutural Experiment Stations now ID operation in all the States and Territo ries. T: ese stations are ID charge of trained experts who are familiar with the needs of their respective localities. Ia cooperation with the U. $. Depart ment of Agriculture the stations eau easily ascertain what new and rare vari- cities are available, and can sell ct such kinds of seed ss will be most likely to give good results in their respective To- caities. They will be able to engage the services of competent farmers, who will make full tests of the seed under direc- tions given by the stations. The results of these tests will be distributed in the bulletins of the stations, which are reg ulariy issued to more than 5O0, ,OO0 per- sous directly connected with the sgricul tural industry, and which are largely quoted by thousauds of agricultural and other papers. In this way, st compar- atively small expense, it will be practi- cable to secure whatever useful results are possible through the distribution of seeds"

HERBERT BROWN, Manag
INFLUENCE OF WO-
 MEN IN FOIL ICS.

Word comes from Colorado, says Harper's Weekly, where women are now fully enfranchised, that on Tuesday, January 22d, a legislator stood up in the Legislative hall aod spoke ot certain women as "hatchet-fsced things" Three women who were sitting as representa- lives hesrd him, and each took vigorous exception to hts epithet. Thus we see how promptly the eoftening influence of woman in politics show itself after once the franchise is granted. The Cobra do women abolished the abusive Waite, and doubtless they will presently break the Colorado legislators of the habit of calling names ID meeting. A Colorado man discloses to the Weekly his opinion that women as office holders are not in favor ID Colorado, and that it IS unlikely that more of them will be elected. Which is interesting if true. but 1t is possible that the opinior of a Colorado man in such a matter should be taken with sslt.

IN speaking of the rush now being made by Americcan and European capitalists te Mexico to invest their money in coffee lands, the Denver Re- publican says: "Investments Ot Amer cain capital in Mexican coffee planta- tions are very numerous, and although there are chances of failure on account of the ignorance of investors concern ing the business ot coffee growing there is little dcnbt that eventually much money will be made in that way. 1t IS one among many illustrations of the tendency of capital to seek investments iu silver using countries. This tend ency is noticeable in manufacturing as well as in coffee planting, and it is 10 be accounted for by the difference be- tween gold and silver. In silver using lab,r and most other sup plies are paid for in silver, whereas the product when disposed of In gold using countries is sold for gold. This is one reason why the Argentine Republic has increased its shipments of wheat to European markets"

A SEAPORT is what Tucson ard south ern Arizona is most in need of at the present moment. Water rat, 8 on freight would bring about prosperity in short order. We made a futile attempt when Port Lobos was agitsted, but Tucson has th4 opportunity now to connect with Guaymas by building connection with the Guaymas road at Calabasas. This road will not cost to exceed S6000 mile according to many estimates and would give the key to the situation in southern Arizona. At the present moment many things can be brought into T"csoD from Guaym6s and freight paid to Benson, thence to Tucson over the Southern Pa cific ard offered at price our mer- chants cannot compete with on account of high roilaoad freigbts. This is abso lu'ely fact, and shows what can be done over direct line to Calabasas. If the north and south road seizes the op- portUnity of building up the fertile San ta Cr"= vnlley to join the Guaymes road, that answers our purpose.

 Mr. Wells thinks that Harqua Hala is the Lost Frenchman,s mine. The orig inal discovery by O,SullivFn in Novem- Der, 1888, corresponds with the tradition. OSullivsu scooped Hp the dirt in his hands and dry washed nugget was worth Sl87. Horne afterwards took S5000 out of one little hole-Yuma Times.
