A millionaire THURMAN.

New York, May 18.-It will be graft

club at Johannesburg. He has won a
number of important events there this
year. including the derby. He has a
large stud and Is or 20 horses in train

San Francisco. May 1S.-The much
advertised boxing carnival under the
auspices of the Olympic Athletic club,
which recently withdrew from the
American Amateur Athletic union, to
enable its management to go into the
prize lighting business for revenue, was
not the success confidently predicted.
The club which claims to be the only
pure athletic club on the coast,
counted on the support of it's 1000 or
more members to lend their patronage
to its enterprise, but in this 1t was
disappointed. It had been repeatedly
announced that nothing but square
and gentlenanly contest would be al
lowed, that all the men had been tired
OUT and found to be in perfect condi-
ton, fulfilling all the requirements OF
the agreement. And yet at the very
beginning one of the men advertised
as star" contestant, brought On
from New York. weighed ten pounds
over the scale Notwithstanding this
big advantage by Leonard over Cans,
the colored lad agreed TO go on and
fight. When the men were called TO
the center of the ring for the custom
airy handshake. as an earnest of the
absence of all ill-feeling in their COM
ing bout, Leonard violated all rules and
ethics of the prize ring and deliberately
spat in his opponents face. There
was an angry demonstration from the
crowd, which did not subside for
minute, but Cans kept cool and seemed
satisfied to await his opportunity for
wiping out the insult. The fight then
began with both men sparring eau
tiously.
Cans took the lead from the start and
despite the deliberate fouls of his op-
ponent, kept his head all through, sev-
eral times having his man weak and
going when the gong announced the
end of a round. The fight was good
and fast to the last, and the referee
very properly gave the decision to Cans.

REGARDING BICYCLES.
Decision to the Effect That They Are
Not Baggage.

St. Louis, May 1S-In the case of ].
H. Belts vs. the Missouri Pacific rail-
way the court of appeals today handed
down decision to the effect that BIZ
cycles are not baggage and that rail-
roads in the state of Missouri do not
have to carry them free of charge.
Mr. Belts bought a first-class ticket
from Webster to ST. Louis and pre-
scented his bicycle to the baggage
agent to have it checked to st. Louis
as ordinary baggage. He was refused
by the railroad agent, and took the
matter into the courts to make a test
case of it. In April. 1895. Judge Russell
decided against the railway company
IN favor of the bicycle. The road ap-
pealed to the court of appeals and the
decision was rendered as stated.
