The complete emptiness of the stomach

SHE PEPPERED THE RoRBER.
PIucky New Jersey Girl Gave q
Tramp a Heavy Dose.

Millville, y. j., June 3.-Aiary Bleaer,
twenty years old. while going to her home,
near Port Elizabeth. Monday evening be-
fore dusk, was stopped by tough-luoking
man, who demanded her valuables and
threatened to kill her if she screamed. Miss
Bieaker appeared 10 be greatly frightened
and told the highway yman he might have
all she had if he would not ha rm her.
The girls apparent great fright threw
the robber off his guard. and when his fair
hold-up went down into her pockets for
what he thought were valua bles he did not
suspect the surprise she gave him. Quick
as flash, ms the fellow was watching her
closely. Miss Bleaker brought forth pack
age of red pepper, which she threw into the
robbers eyes.
Instantly the man was blinded and began
swearing all manner of terrible oaths. He
scraped enough of the pepper out of tiS
eyes to see Miss Bleaker's Whereabouts, and
In rage rushed at her with the fury of
tiger. Another handful of pepper caused
him to cry out for mercy and rush bIindly Y
into the woods.
Miss Bleaker hurried home and told her
father of her adventure. Mr.. Bleaker. with
several neighbors, started out 70 search for
the highwayman, but could not find him.
Miss Bleaker has carried pepper for several
years as a protection. She is the heroine
of the neigbborhood.

THEY SLUGGED FOR LOVE
Two Pennsylvania Miners Fought
Fifteen Rounds About a Girl.

When the Sheriff Came and Ar
rested Them In the Ring

WiIkcsbarre, Pa, June "a terrific fight
tool; place at Mill Greek last night between
Anthony McGinty and John Durkln, two
young miners 1t was unfinished, as beriff
Martin stopped it in 4 very summary man.
ner The young men. who are big, strap
ping fellows, weighing about $50 pounds
each, have for some months been IN love
with pretty girl named Anna Wallace.
Each young man paid her devoted atteD-
ton, and each was encouraged by the girl.
She had a number of other admirers. but
the race for her favor was understood to be
between McGinty and DGrkln. These young
men also understood this, and from fast
friends grew to be enemies.
So intense was their rivalry that mat
tiers reached climax three weeks ago
when McGinty, calling at Miss Wallace's
home, found Durkn there. Some words
passed between them, and there would
have been fight then and there but for
Miss Wallace's interference. She told
them that she liked each equally We'll,
but she would have nothing more TO do
with them until their rivalry gave place
to friendly feeling.
The young men left tie house together;
and after a little talk agreed that there
was but one way out OF the difficulty, that
was for them to fight it out, and for the
best man to try to win the girl without
any Interference with the other.
They agreed to meet last night, and both
commenced training. After work ended
last evening, they retired with several
friends to quiet spot in the woods. A
rough ring was made. and then, stripping
to the waist, they set to. A referee and
timekeeper had been chosen, and the fight
was properly conducted in three-miDute
rounds, with a minute between.
The men fought with hare knuckles and
wasted no time in sparring. 1t was slug.
slug, slug, one round after another, and
both were terribly punished Blood flowed
free from a half dozen wounds after the
first few rounds, but neither man would
give in.
In the meantime. Sheriff Martin had
heard that the fight was to take place,
and with couple of deputies he drove
to the rngside. The men were fighting
the fifteenth round when lie appeared.
They were nearly blinded by blood and so
weak that they staggered almost help
lessly about the ring, but neither would
give in. The sheriff jumped into the ring
and arrested them. Then he took them to
n creek few yeards away and made them
jump in. After some OF the blood had been
washed away the men were held in $500
bail for u further hearing.
