THE RING

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10.-Cham-
pion James J. Corbett and Robert Fitz-
simmons had an impromptu set-to to-
night in the barroom of Green's hotel,
but neither man was injured. Both
men are stopping at Green's hotel.
Corbett reached this city about 11:30
tonight from Washington. where he
spared four rounds with John McVey.
He. in company with his brother, Joe,
and some friends, went down to their
hotel, where they met Fitzsimmons in
the barroom. Corbett walked up to the
New Zealander and said:
well, you're shooting off your mouth
again about me. f1unking out of that
bicycle race, and that you would pull
my nose. Now I'll do some nose pull
ling and with this remark the big
champion gave Roberts nose a SmarL
tweak The two men clinched. but be-
fore any damage had been done they
were separated. Fitzsimmons then
turned upon Joe Corbett. who had
grabbed the lanky fighter and at
tempted to butt him with his head.
Joe broke away from Fitzsimmons, at
the same time say:
You big - - -, you can't
whip me to say nothing of my brother"
FHtzsimmons reached around, picked
up a decanter and hurled it at Joe
Corbett but it went wide of its mark
He then grabbed a caster and was in
the act of throwing it at young Cor
bett when he was seized by a special
officer. When the quarrel had appar-
emily been smoothed over, Jim Corbett
walked over to Fitzsimmons and spat
in his face. The New Zealander was
apparently not anxious to tackle the
champion and Fitzsimmons was taken
out of the hotel by some friends

properly in power. The court, how
ever, refuses to make the permanent
injunction restraining the A. P. A. po-
lice commission from exercising its
functions. The decision is in the ma
ture of compromise, and it remains
for the a. p A. board to go TO the
supreme court TO have the case decided
the decision is as follows:
Prima Facie Title.
I'm the light of these decisions. the
defendants appointed as fire and police
commissioners, under the law of 1895,
now in force, must be held to have
apparent right and to be entitled prlma
facie to the office in question. Such
being the case, court of equity Will
not restrain them from claiming such
offices or from proceeding in a lawful
manner to obtain peaceful possession
thereof.
1T has been suggested in argument
that if the injunction prayed for is
not granted, there is danger of a con-
fiict between the contending parties to
the detriment of good order. There
is no allegation in the petition that the
defendants will use force and violence
or other than lawful means to gain
possession, and the court will not as
sumo that it will be DONE On the
L
in the people of Omaha TO believe that
such contest will occur. Should any
thing of the kind occur, the RESPONSE
bility will be with those who precipi-
tate it, or incite it, and l take occa-
sion to say here that notwithstanding
the views herein expressed as to the
rights of the defendants to the pos
session and occupancy of the offices
in question, yet the plaintiffs have the
oh 70 in HI in,
sion and to exercise the functions of
said offices until otherwise ordered in
a proper legal proceeding"
Excitement Intense.
The excitement was intense when
court convened The room was
crowded to suffocation. Every avail
able seat was taken and the aisles
were damned with spectators. Many
prominent politicians and office-holders
were on hand.
The judge reviewed the events lead
ing UP to the present controversy. He
spoke of the exhaustive citation of au-
thorities which had been presented for
consideration and stated that he had
given the questions, legal and other
wise, which are in dispute, his careful
attention. Title to office, he said, can
not be decided in this suit. The Gues-
ton, he said, is, Will the court by in
junction protect the old board, thus
obliging the defendants to bring quo
warranto proceedings?
The regular police commission will
remain in power until the supreme
court reviews the case and for an
emergency has detailed special officers
at the police station and city to resist
any force the \. P. \. board may
place in the field to take the city prop
erty. Many members of the A. P. \.
have asserted they will now take pos
session through force, though no de-
mand has yet been made by the n. p.
a. commission for the city property
on the old commission. Many A p. A
leaders argue that since Judge Hope
we'll dissolved the injunction, there
was no need to wait for writ of
custer. and tonight talk of force. To
night, however. there is no evidence of
trouble.

General Hardin Has Not Defined
His Views on the silver Question


FRANKFORT. KY, Aug 1G-General
Hardin has not yet declared his position
on the silver question since the state
Democratic convention. Just before the
convention General Hardin issued a card
stating that he would abide by the. COM
bined wisdom Of the convention, though
he had advocated free silver at 16 to l
during the whole can7sss; 1t is n not be
lieved the general will declare hlmseH
until the Joint debate on the opening
of the campaign in Louisville on August
49, Fruitless attempts to interview him
have been made repeatedly. The admin
istration and sound money Democrats
are claiming the platform is Enthusiastically
for sound money and that Hardin knew
it when nominated, while Senator Black
burn and his free silver following have
placed a different construction thereon
and claim it Is all they want. State
officials refuse TO state what they believe
General Hardin will do. Free silver men
are claiming he will hold to his former
views, while sound money Democrats are
inclined to believe ne will evade the mat
ter and refer 10 the action of the Democ-
racy as satisfactory TO him.

NAMING JAPANESE CHILDREN.
There Arc Three Methods, Two Of Then,
 Religious.

Ihere Arc Three meIhods, Two cf Them
 Religious.
 Tho Shinto belief Is the oldest of tho Japanese religions, antedating perhaps tho Christian religion, and having been ob- scured by Buddhism for quite a number of centuries, has been revived. The method of naming children, it seems, is quite curious one, there being three ways in uso by tho followers of Shinto, tho way of tho gods.
 One, the most obvious and tho least de- vout, is for the father to namo tho child himself. The next in an ascending scale of piety is for tho father to select several suitable names and then submit tho choice among them to the god. The way the god shows his choice is as follows: The father brings the child 10 the temple, and with him slips of paper inscribed with possible names Three or five is tho usual number. The priest rolls them up separately, puts them into bowl and after due incanta- tion angles for them with n gohci upon a wand. (Ihe gohei is the long zigzag of paper which is so important in ceremonies of | religious naturo.)
 Whichever the gohei fishes out first is the god given name the child is to bear, Q con venient custom when the father is in doubt between tho far eastern equivalents of Tom, Dick or Harry. This is cere. mony which takes place when the infant is week old. Ut Is not to be confounded with the niya mairi, which takes place month after birth and is not our christen- ing at all, but akin to the Hebraic presen- tation at the temple. For at the miya mairi the child, named some weeks bcfore is presented 10 its guardian god and form ally put under his protection.
 This third method of getting namo Gor the child is through one of the possessions or frances which arc so common in tho re- ligious ceremonies of these people. The priest goes into his trance and his assist ant asks him, or rather the god through him, what is the proper name, and tho god makes reply.
 This method of christening ono's child is reputod the most holy of the thrco and is only practicod by the ultra devout. Of tho population of Japan about 20per cent, it is estimated, arc thus named t7 the go hei or tho god, about 10 ger cent by each. -"Occult ,Japan"
