the knowledge that so many fol ms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis

family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families. and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you 1ur-
chase, that you have the genuine article.

KILLS HIMSELF AT SEA.
Probable Suicide OF Adoiph La
denburg, the New York
Banker.

New York. Feb. Pin the darkness
and solitude of early morning on Thurs
day last. when icy winds and binding
sleet buffeted each other in their race
across the ocean, Adolf Ladenburg, a
prominent Wall street banker, disap-
peared over the side of the Niagara, Il
steamer of the Ward line, in which he
was passenger from the Bahamas, and
was drowned.
All the circumstances SO far ELECTED in
the stories told by the ships officers,
who should know, leave little doubt that
Mr.. Ladenburg took his own life, but
the causes which led to the act will prob
ably forever remain more or less IN
doubt.
AS all the business world knows, Adolf
Iadenburg was the senior partner,
founder and actual working head of La
-denburg, Thalmann & Co., the repre-
sentatives in this country of the great
house of Bleichroeder of Berlin. His
career in this country dates back to eight
cen years ago, when the Bleichroeders
Belmont the elder, who up to that ime
had been their New York agent
Baron Gersen Won Bleichroeder, the
head of the Berlin house. would not for
give the slight which he rightly or wrong
~ felt had been put upon him by the Bel
monts, and decided to establish an indC-
pendent house
Adolf / 1denburg, a clerk in the house,
was chosen, and succeeded SO we'll that
in 1880 he was able to take in Ernst
Thalmann and Richard Limburger as
partners and form the house which now
bears their name.

The editor of the paper. Robert Mcbride,

cry person who had come down to see

Is Now Champion Heavyweight.
"Fitz" is a champion heavyweight pugil-
list as well as champion in the middle
weight class. He earned this title today
by his defeat of Peter AIaher. The vic
tory of the Amercanized Australian
stamps FitZsimmOns as the greatest OF
the latter-day prize fighters.
His superiority in agility and ring gen
eralship was fully demonstrated. These
qualities won him the fight.
Makers friends all along claimed he
would show a great Improvement over
the form he displayed when he met Fitz-
simom~s before and the result was a
great disappointment TO them. FItz
defeat of Maher sharply demonstrates
that the lanky pugilist is in class pc
culiarly his own.
There are any number who think Eltz
would make shorter work of Jim Cor
bett now than he did of Peter Maher IN
their first contest. Rather than beng

FOR PENSION REFORM.
Congressman Jenkins 'nbmits Two New
bis.

Washington, D. c.. Feb. 24.-[Special.l
Congressman Jenkins introduced two
bills designed to relieve Congress of
the great amount of pension legislation
that it now has to Wrestle with One
bill is intended TO make more explicit
the points in the present law on which
the greatest number of conflicts with
the commissioner occur, with a view to
reduce the number of cases III which
appeals are taken.
The secand bill establishes q court Of
pension appeals to be composed Of three
lawyers and two physicians, who are to
receive $1,000 a year and TO work nine
hours on each secular day" All cases
are to 90 to this court to be passed upon
and when it is Of the opinion shat the
existing laws viii not permit the grant
ing of a pension where a pension is de-
served the case is to be reported TO the
speaker of the House, who is to refer
it at will to the committee on pensions.
Mr.. Jenkins proposed to have the
changes made by the pension committee
as amendments to the general law, but

SLAUGHTERING THE DUCKS.
President Cleveland Runs Down to Vir-
ginia for Some Sporr.


Quantico, Va, Feb. 24-The tender
Maple with President Cleveland and
party on board. arrived off Quantico
about 3:20 this morning, and at once
proceeded down the river. The Presi-
dent was accompanied by Commodore
Lamberton, DR.. Riley and Attorney-Gen-
cral Harmon. The party came down on
the invitation of Col. Withers Walter to
enjoy the duck shooting from his blinds.
Arrangements were soon completed and
by daylight the President and his friends
were in the blind. The decoys were at
once set and the two men stationed on
shore with small boat to pick the ducks
I'D as they were brought down. The
President Will probably have good shoot
ing, as the ice is broken and the ducks
are plentiful on the feeding grounds,
which have been covered with ice for Il
week.
The President up to noon today had
not been as successful as on his former
trip. The weather is very moderate and
the tide has caused the ice to float "a Their
rapidly frightening the ducks. The
President does not seem discouraged and
expects to bag a good number. The
President and his party have shot only
seven or eight ducks so far. the Presi-
dent getting about four shots.

men came to the scratch in splendid
shape and almost before anybody knew
what had happened Fitz swung out
with his right and caught Maher square
on the jaw with a tremendous blow
They had not been Sparring more than
a minute when this occurred. Maher
was knocked out completely and the fight
was awarded to FitZsimmOns.
How Fitzsimnons Won.
First Round-Fitz led with his left,
Maher backed towards his corner. Fitz
landed with his right and q clinch fol-
lowed. Maher struck Fitz with his right
hand while they were clinched and Ref
cree Siler warned him if he did so again
he would give the fight to Fitzsim-
mons. After a break away, Peter
landed his left on Fits neck. Close
mitigating followed and Maher succeeded
in landing his left on Fits upper lip
drawing blood. Fitz landed with left
and right. Cinch followed, Maher
tented and Fitz led with his right, but
fell short. A mix-up followed in which
Maher landed both right and left on
either side of Fits head. Maher led
with his left and another clinch
followed. F'itz seemed a bit bothered
and broke ground on Makers leads. Ma
her followed him up and led with his left
when Fitz side-stepped and swinging his
right landed full on the point of Makers
chin. Maher measured his length on the
floor, his head striking the canvas with
great force. He vainly attempted to
arise but could not do more than raise
his hand
The seconds called on Maher to get
up, but he failed to respond and sank
back to the canvas. Maher yainly tried
to arise. The fatal tenth second was
counted, Maher was declared out and
Fitzsimmons declared the victor after
one minute and thirty-fve seconds of
rather lively fighting.
EitZSimmOns' admirers cheered him to
the echo and Makers seconds carried
the defeated Irishman to his corner 1t
was several minutes before he realized
what had happened to him and Fitz>
simmons walked over to his corner and
shook him by the hand. Fitzsimmons
also shook hands with Quinn and the
seconds in Peters corner.
Barring the slight bleeding at the nos
trils occasioned by the left hand jab of
Maher, the Australian showed no
marks of injury and appeared as fresh
as at the opening of hOstilities.
Maher showed no signs of punishment
except a slight break in the skin just
above the point of the left chin where
Fitzsimmons' master stroke had landed.
How the Fighters Felt.
Maher was unconscious fifteen seconds.
He was not disposed to talk much. ''He
got me good and hard, and that was all
there was to it," he said. II heard the
