The story of the meeting may be
quickly told, from the fact that
1t quickly happened. 1t seemed to
the sports at the ringside that the
gladiators had scarcely faced each
other until all was over. There was
little sparring, when Fitzsimmons
made good his boast OF yesterday
that there would be bat two hits;
one would be on Maher's jaw and the
other on the iloor as he fell. The
Australian awaited his opportunity,
which was not long in coming.
While his opponent was apparently
planning for one of those rushes, be
gave him a right hand hook on
the jaw, aud down he went. The
tight was over in minute.
How 1t Was Done.
LANGrEY, Texas, Feb. 21.-Fitz-

than minute of fighting for him TO

It lasted. Both were confident. Fitz-
simmons took the aggressive from
the call OF time and forced Maber

There Maher made stand,

Maher led twice after he had
been broken away by the referee,

These qualities won him tn

In Catalina and san Nicolas, and the
Fight is said TO haze resulted in very great

General Aldecoa reports that he hes

under Gomez AT the Mora plantation. A
skj~n,ish was followed by the retreat of
the insurgents who suffered some loss not
enumerated in the report. This body OF
| insurgents, it appears, was later met by
| General Linares mt Senea, where it is as
serted Gomez and Maceo had arranged to
unite their forces. When this Information
was obtained General Linares sent 4
mounted messenger TO General Aldecoa
in order that the latter might support
him in case of an emergency. a battle
took place in which Gomez and Maceo's
forces were easily beaten with heavy losses
and broken up into small attachments,
which took to the woods.

inflicted upon the insurgents were SO
heavy that the smell of dccomposing
corpses is uncomfortable for distance OF
three miles from the field. The insurgent
loss is now stated TO have been nearly 800

DEs MONIES, Iowa, May 19, 1896.
The past week was excessively wet
and cloudy, with about the normal
temperature. Showers have fallen in
considerable portions of the state
every day since the 9th inst, in all
districts there has been a heavy excess
of rainfall. Following are some of
the higher measurements reported for
the week ending Saturday night. Pot

Adding the heavy showers of Sunday
and Monday would give very great
excess during the past ten days.
Considerable damage to crops has
been done by washing out and food
ing, in some localities where the
heavier downpours occurred.
| Corn planting has been retarded,
and probably some replanting will be
necessitated. In the northern and
central districts from 90 to 40 per
cent of the corn area remains to be
planted, and in some sections the
plowing is not completed. The early
planted fields show fair stand, but
the weeds are getting a vigorous
start.
Grass and small grain have made a
phenomenal growth. The only draw
back IS tendency to rank growth of
oats and wheat, which may cause dam
age by lodging or rust.
The hay crop is assured, and will be
unusually heavy.

A False Report Corrected.

This week while in Hunts drug
store in Granger, inquiry was made
about the condition of John McHugh,
and it was in report there, that Nc
Hugh had paid DR.. Keith $500 with
which he had skipped out abandoning
the case.
Driving from there to John L. Drum
mond's store in Florcnceville inquiry
was there made as to the condition of
John McHugh ar the story that he had
paid DR.. Keith $500 with which he
had skipped out was repeated.
These reports being unfounded fabri-
cations, probably sent atloat for a
purpose, will Justify us in giving the
public little information and the
truth in correction of these groundless
statements.
1t is generally known fact that for
six months prior to DR.. Keith's taking
the case of Mr.. McHugh, he had been
entirely helpless, his extremities be-
ing destitute OF the sense of feeling,
and his bowels SO constipated that they
only moved in response to a cathartil
or an injection administered, and OPT.
ates were given to produce sleep. All
Of these conditions Of his body anG
system have been removed by DR..
keith's treatment, his bowels moving
naturally his sleep being natural
sweet and refreshing without the use
of opiates and his general health 81
improved that he could sit up from
six to eight hours day. By rubbing
his extremities from two to three
hours day with the improved con
dition of his general health they hat
!. become sensitive to the touch and ht
was able to move his feet and legs ant
was without bodily pain. This rub
bing had all been done by DR.. Keith
who had also rendered treatment t,
Orvine McHugh, minor son of Johl
McHugh, had furnished between two
and three dollars in nuts and fruit
for Mr.. McHugh to eat, and which hi
, health required, and for all this treat
ment TO himself and son, and for tn
food furnished. Mr.. McHugh gave t.
DR.. Keith exactly the sum Of ten dol
lars and not one farthing more.
