 The moment they met it was easily seen that Dempsey was not the Jack of old. They simply tapped each other in the first round. and q number of people yelled: Take him of Dempsey $ drunk.''
 In the second round Ryan kept punch ing Dempsey in the stomach without a re- turn and then smashed him in the jaw. Ryan played with Dempsey and then smashed him in the mouth. Ryan landed on the body. and the crowd kept shout ing Take him off :" Ryan hit Eemrsey on the jaw and floored him. Dempsey got up staggering The crowd then yelled louder than before: Take him off, It's shame! Takc him off"'
 In the third round Jack got mad and ran for his man, but Ryan stopped him and forced him to the ropes. Ryan hit Dempsey whenever he wished on the mouth and in tho face, and in response to the frequent yells of the spectators the gong sounded, and the fight was stopped at once.
 The announcer said that Dempsey s friends had requested that the fight should be stopped. and although Dempsey seemed to be anxious to go on the referee gave the fight to Ryan. Dempsey was in no con dition to fight. and his 'throwdown'' to his friends and admirers may do much to- ward tho downfall of boxing in this vicin- ity. Ryan could have knocked Dempsey out in the first round, but he let up on the once famous Nonparicl.

ELDER NICHOL ARRAIGNED.
lie Is Being Tried by a Commission of the
prcshNtcry.


The judicial commission appointed by
the Lackawanna Presbytery to receive
evidence and adjudicate on the charges
preferred against Elder James NJ.
Nichols, of the Second Presbyterian
church, Carbondale, met in that city
yesterday, and We're engaged in the
work until late hour last evening, and
adjourned to meet at 9.15 o'clock this
morning, to receive further evidence.
The matter was brought to the at
tention of the Lackawanna Presbytery
on April II, when letter was read
from Rev. Charles Lee, stating that as
the session of the church We're not able
to try the charges, by reason Of a di-
vision among themselves, referred them
to the Presbytery with the request that
the Presbytery assume the case.
The following were appointed COM
mission to investigate the charges:
Revs. w. II. Swift, G. e. Guild, y. F.
Stahl, T. a. Mills and Alfred Hand, w
Il. Holmes and Thomas H. Atherton.
When the investigation was adjourned
last night, the committee declined to give
any information further than the fact
that the inquiry was adjourned. hut it
is understood that the charges preferred
against Elder James NJ. NiChol are such
that are alleged to constitute grave
heresy, which assail the doctrine Of the
Presbyterian church.
Rev. +. r. Kennedy, the popular pas
tor of the church, resigned his charge.
as he was unable to fulfil his duties
owing to the difficulties created by the
division among the members. Another
meeting of the commission will be held
this morning beginning at 9.15.

Led TO an Exciting Scene Between Lon
II. Jones and Douglass Ward-Enter.
tainmcnt at Jackson Street Baptist
Church on Decoration Day.

Two prominent West Side young men
were the principals in n forcible mis-
understanding which eliminated in
bodily blows yesterday afternoon. Lou
II. Jones and Douglass Ward own UNI
brellas which are very much alike in
appearance, though Mr.. Wards Is the
more valuable. A few days ago both
young men entered the Farmers Dairy
milk depot, on Jackson street, and each
deposited his umbrella in the same cor
ner. In leaving Mr.. Ward got Mr..
Jones' umbrella, and Mr.. Jones got Mr..
Wards.
Yesterday both met in the depot and
Mr.. Ward accused Mr.. Jones of theft,
so the latter says. The accuser de-
manded his property and wanted 1t i'm
mediately. Mr.. Jones claims that he
consented to exchange umbrellas when
he went home that evening. Hot words
ensued with the result that Mr.. Ward
grasped the other. who Is diminitive in
stature, by the shoulders Mr.. Jones
reciprocated the misplaced affection by
blow. which landed on Mr. Wards
chest. They were separated and Mr..
Ward obtained his umbrella by sending
a messenger for 1t to Jones' house.

master, proved that he is an artist of
unusual merit and ability.
