TURNER-LEWIS MATCH.
Was Declared a Draw at the End Of
the Tenth Round.

There was only small audience to
witness the Turner Lewis glove match
last might at the Metropolitan Theater,
and 1T seemed for long time as II
there would be no contest, there being
SO little money in sight and Lewis be-
ing unwilling to go on on that account.
Jake Zemansky finally agreed to
stand the expense, and the men got to
work, but the contest was unSatisfac-
tory to the audience.
The first of the preliminary bouts
was between two colored individuals,
and the audience got almost the worth
of their money in laughing at their lu-
dicrous performance.
AT 1890 Lewis and Turner entered
the ring. Fred Hanstead was chosen
referee, but John Norton objected, and
Hanstead Withdrew and Tom Norton
was finally agreed to. Joe Reese and
Johnny Pendergast were chosen time
keepers
Turner was seconded by Harry Pep
pers and Jack Hopkins. and Lewis by
John Norton and M. Flynn.
Lewis was the taller and heavier of
the two, and his opponent was more
quick on his feet There was some
heavy slogging in the last rounds, the
audience frequently crying Foul"
when Lewis struck during the clinches,
and he was several times cautioned.
Turner also fouled several times.
Ten rounds were contested, and the
referee decided 1T to be draw, as
neither man had the advantage at the
erd
Henry Peppers said after the fight
that he would guarantee to put both
Lewis and Turner out, one after the
other, each to be inside of six rounds.

THE POULTRY SHOW.
1t Will Continue To-Day-Pigeon Race
at III A. M.

The poultry show at the Pavilion will
end tonight, and all who fail to visit
it will miss an object lesson of more
than ordinary value. The show has
been a great success in every way, I'M
less, perhaps, financially, as the cold
and disagreeable weather has deferred
many from attending.
The dogs have had their day-or,
rather, four of them-and their melody
will not be heard after this morning.
Their part of the double show closed
at 10 O'Clock last night, when all the
local dogs were taken home and the
others will go to-day. The majestic st.
Bernards, the cold-eyed Danes, the no.
ble-looking mastiffs and Newfound-
lands, the sleek and graceful settlers,
pointers and spaniels and all the others
will be seen there no more until the AS
sociation holds another show here,
which it doubtless will do annually.
To Secretary Ladd Of the State Poul-
try and Kennel Association and J. E.
Doak, both of Stockton, belong most of
the credit for the success of the great
show. These gentlemen have labored
early and late, and have the satisfaction
of knowing that the public and their
fellow members of the Association ap-
preciate their efforts. All details of
the exhibition have been carefully look
ed after, and it is safe to say that moth
ing of the kind in this State was ever
better managed.
HOMING PIGEONS.
At IL o'clock this morning, If the
weather should not be too stormy or the
fog too heavy a large number of hon.
ing pigeons will be released from in
front of the Pavilion. They are from
points about the Bay, and with favora-
BILE weather they are expected to make
quick flights to their respective cotes.
The birds were received by bhe Oregon
express train last night, and are said
TO include some of the best trained pig
cons on the coast.

ago was squad of white convicts
guarded by mounted negro guards, and
still some of the white people of the
State are not satisfied yet.
The large fish pond at Margaretts-
vile. covering several acres, has nearly
dried up, something that was never be-
fore known. Many of the fish have
been destroyed.
Cotton is turning out much better
than was at one time expected, but the
low price has a tendency to discourage
farmers.
The saw mill of Mr. L. Powell was
entirely destroyed by fire, near town
last evening. The fire originated from
spark from the engine. The sheds.
engine and boiler were all destroyed. The
loss is about $3.50; no insurance.
The concert given here last night by
home talent was q most successful and
enjoyable affair, and a large and fash
ionable audience was present and show
ed their appreciation by hearty and
repeated applause. The entertainment
was for the benefit of the Oscala Club
and the receipts were quite satisfactory.
