What came near being disastrous fire
was averted at the residence of William
A. Agard, last week Tuesday night.
About II o'clock just after the family had
all retired, Mrs. Agard was aroused by
the smell of smoke, and upon examina-
t1on discovered that the attic was fire.
By hard work on the part of the family
and neighbors the fire was quickly put
out without the use of the hydrant. How
the fire started is not known, but it seem
ed to have originated in hair mattress,
which was destroyed together with sever.
al other pieces of furniture, yet without
any serious damage to the house. Had
it not been discovered just as it was the
entire building would soon have been be.

Charles Sadd son of Mrs. Sumner Sadd
of Sadd's Mills, and cousin of G. R.
Sadd, who was seriously injured In Rock
vile Friday, had narrow escape from
drowning the same afternoon. Men had
been cutting ice on the mill pond few
days before, and the boy, in crossing the
pond, went on to the thin Ice, where the
ice had been cut out, and broke through.
A young woman at his home, just across
the road from the pond, saw the boy on
the ice, and saw a moment later he had
disappeared. She did not see him break
through, but thought at once that he
must be in the pond. She ran across the
street to the grist-mill and told Charles
Reynolds. With presence of mind, Mr..
Reynolds secured long pole, hastily
made hook on the end with piece of
of wire, rushed over to the pond, and was
just able TO save the boy by catching the
wire hook into his clothing as he was
down for the third time. He was uncon-
cious, and did not revive so as to be out
of danger until evening.

PRIZE FIGHTING TRUST.
The Scheme OF .Parson' Dayies-He Ex-
plains Its Advantages.

Chicago, February 11-'Parson
Davies has gone East to interest 9TH
er managers in a scheme of forming a
prize fighters trust. He will consult
Tom O'Rourke, VIM. a. Brady, James
A. Kennedy and others and says he
can convince them that a trust would
be beneficial not only to the fighters
but also to the public at large. The
trust is TO be confined at first TO the
heavy weights-not to Corbett, who
mas retired. nor to Fitzsimmons, who
will not fight any more. but to the
younger crop. Mccoy, Maher, Choyn-
ski. Jcffreys. Rubin, or any others
who have similar aspirations. The
scheme in brief to have the public
raise a suhscription-no more than 81
To he accepted from any one person
Of three thousand dollars with which
"A suitable championship belt is to be
purchased for presentation to the win
ner III Mccoy. for instance, retains
il after three fights or holds il for
three years. il is to become his pro-
perty The purse to be contested for
is five thousand dollars.
n do not see why we should not
have a trust" said Parson to-day.
THE base ball people have one, and
certainly it is very beneficial to the
managers and the players. If ball
tosser does anything wrong he can be
disciplined He may throw a game
and a prize fighter may put fake, so
| say there should be some means of
making fakes impossible. 1t can be
done by a trust If it should be found
that two fighters have deceived the
public the trust can prevent them
from getting another engagement at
any club affiliated with it, And there
has been altogether too much talk for
advertising purposes by actors. Low
ers of boxing want to see nights ana
care nothing about talk. With trust
it would be business and not chin
music. If a man did not keep his en-
gagements ne would be blacklisted as
would one who did any crooked work.
I am going East to see all the men
prominently identified with boxing
contests and believe | can convince
taem it would be a good thing for the
fl ghters and all who love to see the
sport to have it controlled and regu-
la red by rules as it is the case with
ba Sc ball.
My plan is to have all challenges
&C companied by a deposit of $500 and
to be accepted within thirty days af-
ter issuance, the contest to take place
not sooner than four months nor more
tha n eight months afterward. Box
ing should be on business basis
thai is the rub Of the proposed trust
and | believe the formation is only a
matt err OF a little time. | am certain
~ going to do my best to bring it
about and | know of others interested
in the sport who are reardy to coop
crate with me. There is law in
New York now which permits boxing
and l think that is the best place to
take the initiative. | am going there
tonight to see O'Rourke, Brady and
other managers who with me, want to
see boxing elevated to the plane where
it properly belongs
