NO DECISION.
Police Step the tayisne MacAuliffc Fight in
the Sixth Round.

New York. March 1.-The Lavigne-
Mac Auliife fight was stopped in the sixth
round by the police. No decision.
MoAuliffe at times showed some of his
old time quickness and cleverness, but
was in no condition to antagonize the
" Kid, Who had the best of the argu-
ment. McAulffeS poor condition was
telling on him fast and he was nearly out
when the police stopped the bout. Owing
to the action of the authorities, no referee
was appointed and the men spared for p
popular verdict.
McAuliffe held warm place in the
hearts of the spectators, but there was
only one verdict possible, and that was in
Layigne's favor Fully 5000 persons wit
messed the bout. After the contest Nc
Aulitfe challenged Laviene to finish
fight within 10 weeks. Negotiations are
pending.

WatervilIe Still Grievss.

| The meeting of the Nj. J. : A. A.. held
last saturday, is still the subject of much
interest in the High schools Of the State.
Waterville High school still has kick
coming and intends to keep it going Wig
orously. Now President Goldthwait
comes forward and says, in letter to Il
member of the Watervile High school,
that he believes the meeting TO have been
| Illegal and has consulted the best legal
advice and those best posted on athletic
matters in both Maine and Massachusetts,
and Thornton, with Waterville and Ban
gor, will contest the legality Of Saturday 5
, meeting.
| 1t is suggested by those most interested
that if Portland. Brunswick and Cony in
sist upon running the association to suit
themselves, they may have little asso-
citation of their own. To show the exact
status OF the situation, it may be well to
say that Wheeler, who presided at Satur-
days meeting, had no credentials; that
Marston, who represented Skowhegan,
had not been furnished his papers. These
20 men are both members of Bowdoin
college, graduates OF the schools they pre-
tended to represent, and had no vote in
the meeting. Waterville naturally asks
this pertinent question. If the constitu-
ton does not provide for the postpone
ment of conventions through the pres
dent, who shall do it: If the hall in
which the convention is called should
burn down the night before the day of
convention, according to Mr.. Pierce's idea
Or Interpretation Of the constitution, the
convention will have to be held in the
ruins of the hall, for no one has right TO
postpone the meeting; and if that is the
case, no one can change the place of meet
ing.
1t does not seem fair or Just that Pres
Woodbridge of Inward, should have so
much to say about the affairs of the
Maine Association, and it is genrally CON
ceded that Mr.. Woodbridge had very
much to do with Saturdays meeting.
President Goldthwait will issue circu-
lar letter to all schools in the association
and will request that another meeting be
hold in the future. Wateryille don't want
any Of the Offices but docs want a fair
show for representation.

SHE hUGGeO HIM.

New York, March ll--Whle "a young
woman, dressed entirely in black, was
struggling with Il cabman at Broad way

Doyle, who was not very sober, hurried
to her assistance. He shouted al the cab
man, and the woman turned suddenly
and put her arms around Doyle's neck
screaming as she did So.
20, how can | ever repay you: You
have saved me from the brutality of a
wretch. y
Then the young woman fell to weeping
on Doyle's bosom. She wept long and
apparently earnestly. At hen suggestion
Doyle started up Broadway with her
When the couple got in front Of the Hotel
Metropole the woman left him and hur-
ried away
She had not gone far ~hcn D3yle missed
his 500 diamond scarf pin. Remember.
ing the length Of time the woman had
kept her arms about his neck he quickly
concluded that she had stolen his pin.
Doyle began to yell AT the woman TO
stop. but she increased her gait and YVES
fast disappearing when Policeman Barker
Of the West 30th station headed her of.
He took her to the station house. where
she described herself as Ray Holmes, 90
wears old. Of ISL West 3sth street
The woman denied that she had stolen
DoyleS pin. The matron searched her
and the pin was found hidden in her hair.
The girl pretended to be surprised and
began to cry. She said that the pin ~ ust
have stuck in her hair when She laid her
head on Doyles bosom
She gave the same excuse when she
was arraigned in jefferson Market court.
yesterday morning, but it had little effect
on Magistrate Cornell, who held her in
$500 bail tor trial.

synopsis of the evidence adduced upon
the trial of Frank Ellison, for assault
upon William H. Henriques, the broker,
and the district attorneys opinion upon
the advsability of granting pardon
prayed for by Ellison S friends, that Sing
Sing will lose one CT its star prisoners
The letter was mailed, today, by Acting
District Attorney Vernon NJ Davis. as
was also the recommendation of Supreme
Court Justice Smyth, advising executive
clemency if ElIisons prison record was
good.
As Ellison has been model prisoner
since he was sentenced to a five years
term by Justice Smyth, Oct 9, 1898, it Is
likely that the recommendation of the
justice will have considerable weight with
the Governor.
Ellison, who was Familiarity known
around the town as . Bff, because of his
pugilistic propensities, had a great many
admirers and friends in club circles, as he
was declared to be good fellow when not
in his cups. His friends got up a move
