j. B. Haverly Dangerously Hurt.

About ten days ago Tom Mccoy and
J. B. Haverly got into a quarrel, the
merits of which we know nothing about,
and during its course some pretty bad
language was used, it is said, by Hay
erIy. At any rate, later in the evening
the parties met in saloon and fight
ensued, in which Haverly was beaten
over the head with piece of billiard
cue. At the time it was thought no Sc
rious damage was done, though Haverly
had several scalp wounds, and next
morning he asked US not to say any
thing about the matter, with which re-
quest we complied.
Since then, however, it has developed
that the injuries were really of a serious
nature, and last night word reached
town that his skull was fractured and
that there was little hope of his recovery.

THE vERIscoPE LAST NIGHT.
A Wonderful Invention. That Puts Life
Into the Inanimate.

The veriscope last night at the Vogt
presented the tt-Fitzsimmons con-
test to fair-sized audience, in manner
that pleased all. Outside of the subject
of the photographs, the life-llke pictures
considered as a triumph of American
genius, were well worth the money it
cost to see them.
When it is taken into consideration
that 143, 900 distinct photographs were
taken by the use of electrical appliances
in fifty two minutes, that these photo
graphs were developed, and being placed
in another electrical machine, are made
to pass a given point at the rate of
2700 minute, and that each photograph
is stopped for an instant in front of the
lens, and that too each within the one
hundredth part OF an inch of the same
spot, it may well be considered one of
the most wonderful inventions of the
age.
The pictures are very llfe-like and
from the time the first one was thrown
on the screen until the last one had dis
appeared, the profound silence in the
big hall told the eloquent story of the
absorbing interest the scenes awakened.
We do not believe in prize fighting, but
in the pictures the "manly art" seems
robbed of its brutality. The science
| displayed, the grace and quickness o1
action could not fail to awaken admira.
tion in anyone.
Corbett was particularly active and il
hardly seemed possible that person
could dodge, advance and retreat as
quickly as he did.
I Fitzsimmons was somewhat slower
but his blows were tremendous.
Some doubted the pictures being &C
curate, that is, thought that the move
ments were in the pictures more rapic
than in the real battle. This is not the
case, as the pictures were put on the
screens at the same speed they were
taken into the machines, that is, three
minutes to the round.

pictures between acts, is very pleas
