BURNS AND PEARCE.

Charlie Burns desires a correction of
the statement that he was knocked
out by Leslie Pearce in three rounds,
and the correction is cheerfully made.
The battle in which Pearce secured
the decision over Burns took place on
December 23d of last year, before the
Chicago Athletic Club. On Wednesday
night Burns put out Frank O'Neal in
five rounds in Cincinnati, ard injured
both his hands. He states that he was
in poor shape to meet Pearce, but
was willing to take chance, and did
not want to disappoint the Chicago
audience. He got on train after his
battle with O'Neal, and met Pearce
the next night. In the early part of
the proceedings he broke small bone
in his left hand, and in the third round
he was compelled to quit, as he could
not use the hand and it panied him
severely Burns states that he will
take on Pearce within three or four
weeks, or any other man of his weight.

WAR IMPROBABLE
In the Opinion of the Rev. NJ. w. Buck, o
the Saptist Church

the Baptist Church.
There was a large congregation at the
First Baptist church last night. and the
pastor, the Rev Martin ". Buck, pre-
faced his sermon on Our Nations Peril '
by ii brief reference to the present
strained relations between the United
States and Spain. growing out of the
Cuban war and the Maine incident.
The Rev Mr.. Buck referred to the war
talk which is so prevalent at present,
and stated that in his opinion, war be
tween the two nations is extremely i'm
probable. He emphasized the fact that
there is a vast difference in the size and
strength of the two nations. AS an IL
lustration, he said that most people, if
they saw two well matched men fighting,
would be disposed to leave them settle
their differences; but If they saw a big
bully whipping a smaller man. that
they would naturally feel like defending
the weaker. He thought the United
States too big to go to war with Spain.
He gave some figures, showing the diff
ference in area and population. in favor
of this country He said that Of Spain
put all her available troops in the field,
she would have an army of 100000 men,
while military authorities state that the
United States cam raise an army of
100000 men.
Mr. Buck thought this government
should interfere in Cuba. but he feared
it would not do so, for the reason that
the predominant influence in Spain. is
also a, strong power in this nation. lie
referred to Roman Catholicism.
The real peril which threatens this ma
ton, according to Mr.. Buck, is intemper-
ance. 1t threatens our industrial system.
our public institutions, and the morals of
our nation.
