London, Oct. 13.-'Peddler" Palmer
of England. who holds the title ofcham-
pi0n batam weight Of the world de-
feated Johnny Murphy Of Boston ia a
20 round GO before the National Sport
ing club. The quarters Of the club were
crammed to their utmost capacity,
many fashionable sports being there.
Palmer meant to take no chances.
but to win on points. At no stage of the
% rounds did he attempt a knock out.
He punished the American very little
and in fact there was very little blood
shed.
Palmer. however always had the
fight in hand; at no stage was Muir
ply dangerous. The Londoner depend
ed mainly on his left.
The glove was seldom out of his RI
walls face and scarcely more than
dozen right handed cross counters We're
exchanged The major portion of these
We're delivered by Murphy. but he was
unable to get near enough to do any
damage. Palmer's right handlers were
of the Hghtest possible kind The af-
fair was voted very tame.

COUNTER PROTEST.
Middle of the Readers Also File Their
Pronunciamento.


RrOnunciamento.
The middle Of the road Populists to
day fled a counter protest with the
secretary Of state against the electors
named by the Abilene convention be-
ing placed on the official ballot. The
protest is signed and sworn to by Abe
Steinberger. secretary of the state cen
trail committee of the middle of the
road organization. The hearing Of this
protest VIII come UP on Saturday, when
the election board will convene again
to consider the protest which was filed
last Saturday by c. c. Clemens of this
city against the electors named by the
middle OF the road faction.
II this move should be successful it
viii still leave the names of the electors
on the ticket under the head of Demo-
cratic electors. The charges that are
made in the protest are that the elect
ors are put on the ticket and their party
is given as Populist when in fact they
are all Democrats, and that they are
put on the POpulist ticket under the
head of Bryan and Watson electors and
on the Democratic ticket under the
head of Bryan and Sewau electors,
when in fact they will vote for Bryan
and SeWau and thus deceive voters who
want to vote for Bryan and Watson.

the Other Side.

New Haven. Conn, Oct 13.-At a
meeting Of the Yale free silver students
Gerald Highes of Denver was elected
president and g. M. studeluski of Pu-
eblo, Col, vice president. There were
about 100 present. and resolutions were

the recent interference by some of the
students with the proceedings at the
time of Mr. Bryan's visit the resolu-
lions condemn this action as untrue to
the sentiments of our university and
hostile to the spirit Of broad-minded-
ness that has alwaoys characterized
Yale men. and we tender Mr. Bryan
our sincerest apology for our fellow
students"

MR.. NOEL'S COMMISSION.
Willing to Accept Interest on Coal
hole Fund for Reminding Bonds.

The city council would like to come
to terms with Mr. p. G. Noel about the
coal hole money which he has held in
trust for the city for several years.
The amount he holds is about S4700,
and the city has been trying for a long
time to get the fund in such a shape
that the money can be used for some
purpose or other.
The council is now considering a
proposition from AIr Noel which is I'M
expected. In 1893 Mr.. Noel acted as
financial agent of the city in the sale
of $4,000 of refunding bonds It was
understood that Mr.. Noel was to sell
the bonds at the best market price but
nothing was said about his commission.
Now he proposes to the council to
turn the coal hole money held by him
over to the city if he is allowed the
accumulated interest as commission for
selling the refunding bonds in 1888.
The accrued interest on the money is
about $3.50 and Mr.. Noel thinks that
would be fair compensation for the
work he did
City Attorney Bird is now investigat-
ing the matter ard he will probably
make q formal report at the next meet
ing, and the council viii then decide
what viii be done with the claim of Mr.
Noel.

In spite OF the fact that deer hunting
is allowed for only fifteen days in New

woodsmen have Two year-old hounds
which they expect to train TO track

take the dog into the woods In mid

three woodsmcn usually 80 together.
One carries rifle and the others long
bladcd pocket knives. A deer Is over7
'akon In the deep snow and shot
through the pauach, 80 that the blood
will flow freely. The pup Is put on the
trail and away It goes yelpIng and
stopping TO taste the red drops. When
II comes up with the deer Is attacks 1t
and pulls II down. After few such
experiences the dog Is eager to follow
an unwounded deer Ia the snow.
