BILLY WOODS BESTED
KNOCKED OUT BY o'DONNELL IN THE
FIFTEENTH ROUND.
Both Arrested Before the Fight, but
Bailed Out-Maber Defeated by
"YOung Corbett."

MONTREAL, Quebec. July 19.-Great in
terest was manifested in the battle between
Steve ODonnell champion Corbetts spar
ring partner, and Billy Woods, of Denver.
In the Crystal Rink tonight. The big audi
torium was crowded. Both ODonnell and
Woods were arrested during the afternoon
at the instance of the Citizens League
but were bailed out by friends. No at
tempt was made to stop the fight, however
and both men were In good trim when they
stepped into the ring.
O'Donnell was attended by Billy Delaney,
Corbetts trainer. while Jim Duane. local
man, looked after Woods. Both men spared
gently in the first round and up to the
fifth IL was a beautiful exhibition of scien-
tifc boxing. In the fifth O'Donnell nearly
had his man out with wicked blow in
the stomach. Woods took ten seconds TO
get up and just then the gong sounded.
From that to the end of the bout ODonnell
had Woods at his mercy. The Denver man
was clearly outclassed, ODonnell simply
playing with him, though 1t was hard
play. Woods was getting groggy at the
tenth round. From the twelfth round
Woods could hardly hold up his arms and
hung around O'Donnelrs neck to save him
self from punishment. In the fifteenth
O'Donnell gave Woods a smash which sent
him down like a log and he was carried

Village Improvement Parties.
ELLSWORTH, Me, April Is, 1895.

To the Editor of the american:
The season of literary clubs, delightful
as it may have been, is drawing to close,
and now club, "of the people and for
the people," comes to the front and begs
recognition from all our good citizens.
The Village Improvement society,
whose only reason for existence is the
desire to aid in improving our city,
believes that it is fulfilling its mission, in
both material and moral respects, by
giving social parties in Hancock hall.
The money raised will be expended
directly in the interest Of the city, and
surely the wisest method OF doing away
with Objectionable entertainments is to
offer mething better in their place.
Boston has her popular, or, as they are
more familiarly called, "pop concerts;
why should not Ellsworth have a series
Of popular parties ".-psrties universal

auspices.

Sorrento-A Model Town.

ookhENTo, april IL, 1870
To the Editor Of The american:
Sorrento as a town-although a COM
paratively new one, having been incor-
ated as such by an act OF the legislature
just closed-is the representative OF a
model little town.
1t is tract OF land formerly known as
Waukeag Neck, part and parcel of the
town Of Sullivan, but having keenly felt
the need and seeing the advantages OF a
separation, it was gained during the past
session OF legislature, through the untir-
ing energy of W. H. Lawrence, general
manager of the Frenchmans Bay and
Mt Desert land and water company, who
put up one Of the greatest fights put
through a session OF the Maine legisla
ture for a number OF years. For com
petitors he had one OF the ablest attor
neys in the State, and senator who
held ninety of the odds against Mr..
Lawrence.
Mr.. Lawrence instigated this move
through and strictly for pure business
motives, and for the advancement and
interests of the class of people who have
placed the coast of Maine where it
stands to-day, in the minds of the
wealthy and best people in the world.
But hen he found he had boulder of
righteousness to surmount, he showed
that he was not the man to miss the on y
chance, so to-day it is fair to say Mr..
Lawrence has gained the laurels in the
face of opposition at which many men
would have tainted.
But the opposition is now a matter of
| but little Importance 20 dwell upon.
and it is only fair to believe that the
people this separation has been gained
for are the people who will make Sor-
rento what am pleased to call a model
town.
| Sorrento is in. the hands of an able
/ board of officers, both mentally and finan-
/ cially, and it is only matter of but
short time when the place will be as
| popular with the popular class as it ever
WAS unpopular with the unpopular class.

the collection of the tax until the su-

much money as possible out of the

that the case will in the near future be
