NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Joe Goddard
and Denver Ed Smith fight at Jo-
hannesburg, South Africa, tomorrow
night and it is very likely that the

Billy Madden, Goddard writes:
ED Smith and I have signed to fight
here on November Z. Smith is big and
fat, and I don't think 1 will have much
trouble in defeating him. 1 am much
better than 1 was in the states, and am
a. strong favorite here, ard have plenty
of dough behind me. Give my regards

through with Smith,
Mr.. Madden yesterday sent the fol-
lowing to the office of a sporting paper:
IF the sporting public want to see
whether Corbett has gone back or not
I'm willing TO let Steve O'Donnell go
against him for 10 or Is scientific
rounds, or as hard as Corbett pleases
O'Donnell always held his own while

TOLEDO, o., Nov. Conrad Eich-
horn, local cigar maker, murdered
his 13-year-old son and killed himself
in a peculiar manner last night. Eich-
horn and his boy put up for the night
at Enteman's hotel. The clerk sup
posed they were strangers. This morn
ing gas was discovered escaping from
their room, to which entrance was
forced, where father and son lay in
bed as if in slumber. A gas chandelier
lying on the floor and a strong odor
of gas told the story. The father had
unscrewed the chandelier and then
crawled in bed to die, allowing his son
to die with him.

The second race was run at the Denver

complish in one year all that 1 had
hoped for, even though the growth in

these facts trust that my request for

A TERRIBLE NIGHT.

SANDUSKY, O., Nov. 6.--After being
driven about in the terrific storm of
Wednesday night and Thursday, the
half-dead occupants of two or three
missing boats have reached Sandusky.
The missing boat contained Charles and
Frederick Johnson, and all hope Of
their having reached land is given up.
Half a dozen fish boats were upset
and dismasted. The tugs Monk and
Peerless did good work during the
storm, in the harbor, and rescued the
crews of three boats just at the time
they had given up the hope of reaching
land. -Four lighters owned by John
Stang of Lorain and engaged in gov
eminent work on the piers, are lost.
Two of them were sunk and the others
went adrift Considerable valuable ma
chinery on board one Of them was
badly damaged. The damage to ship
ping and fishing interests is heavy.

The knowledge l have gained with per-

pathies. We find full compensation for
whatever efforts we have put forth
Our hearts have been touched by the
devotion of friends, and our lives shall
prove our appreciation Of their afrec-
ton, which we prize as the richest re-
ward which this campaign has brought.
THE FACE OF THE ENEMY.
I'm the face of the enemy rejoicing
in its victory, let the roll be called for
an engagement, and urge all the
friends of bimetallism to renew their
allegiance to the cause. If we are
right, as 1 believe we are, we shall yet
triumph. Until convinced Of his err
ror let each advocate of bimetallism
continue to work. Let all silver clubs
retain their organization, hold regular
meetings and circulate literature. Our
opponents have succeeded in this cam
paign and must now put their theories
to the test.
Instead of talking mysteriously
about sound money and an honest
dollar they must now elaborate and
defend financially their system. Every
step taken by them should be publicly
considered by silver clubs. Our cause
has prospered most where the money
question has been longest discussed
among the people. During the next
four years it will be studied all over
this nation, even more than it has been
studied in the past.
THE YEAR 1900.
1.-The year 1900 is not far away. Be-
fore that year arrives international BIZ
metallism will cease to deceive; before
that year arrives those who have called
themselves gold standard Democrats
will become bimetallists and be with
our party, or they will become Repub-
licans and thus open enemies; before
that year arrives trusts will have con-
WINGED still more OF the people that a
trust is a menace to private welfare
and to our republics safety; before
that year arrives the evils of the gold
standard will be even more evident
than they are now, and the people will
be ready to demand an American f1nan-
cial policy for the American people, and
will join with us in the immediate
restoration of the free and unlimited
coinage of gold and silver at the pres
ent legal ratio of Is to l, without wait
ing for the aid or consent of any other
nation. w. j. BRYAN.

with the sense Of security he felt from the
humping Of the weapon against his leg,
and his fears were quieted. until one
night not long ago.

taken, and before he had gone a block
overlook him, He grabbed him by the
collar with his left hand, and sticking
the pistol in his face, commanded him
10 give up the watch.
All right all right; don't shoot" said
the trembling man, as he handed out a
watch. and, breaking away, ran down
the street as fast as his legs would carry
him.

shouted the Buena Park man, but there
was no response, and putting the watch
in his pocket started toward home. At
