| perior Tent No. IS. did themselves
honor as wei as honored Old Town bv
Their splendid turn out. Besides turn
! ing out in large numbers they con-
/ tributed three floats two of which were
| illustrative of the benefits of insurance.
and the third representing the tent Of
| the order.
Following the floats came the Gitche
Gume band under the leadership of
| Dan Young, playing lively airs, and i'm
mediatelv behind came the Red Men,
! Gifche Gume Tribe Of East End, and
! Ojibwav Tribe of the West End Some
OF the braves wore badges and scarfs
while others were dressed in In
dian fashion even to having their faces
painted and being armed with spears,
tomahawhs and bowie knives, and bore
a striking semblance to the genuine
article. All along the route some of
the braves gave exhibitions Of their skill
in taking scalps, creating considerable
amusement by their antics. Near the
corner of Fifth and Becker three of
them espied a man dressed as police
man, armed with clue, with z saffron
tuZz skirling face like full moon
They Immediately made rush for him
but he sought safety in 4 neighboring
saloon. Later on, the fake cop was seen
representing a policeman asleep on his
/ beat. His clever approximations erected
a good deal of amusement. When the
parade halted before the band stand
the braves gave an exhibition of war
dance, then squatted on the street in a
circle ana smoked the pipe Of peace,
after which they dispersed. The Red
Men are deserving of great praise for
the part they took in making the parade
a success
Next came Mayor Dietrich and the
council followed by the East end fire
brigade, with hose wagon. hook and
1 lad der truck. and the Charles N.O'IIare
engine. presenting quite a smart APP
pearance.
The route of the procession was lined
with people and vast throng had con-
gregated at the intersection of Beck r
avenue aud Fifth streets. Such CON
course of people had not been in Old
Town for long time.
The parade ended, the next thing on
the program was the speaking. and the
people crowded up TO the band stand.
Mr.. Catlin acted as chairman and
after making Il brief speech introduced
Mayor Dietrich, who was accorded a
! warm reception, and spoke at consider
able length. in an intensely patriotic
vein, ellciting at times loud applause.
The next speaker was Hon Jas. II j..
Agen, who made Il vigorous speech
concluding by moving the following
resolution, which was unanimously car
ricd:

SHARKEY SHES HIS CASTOR.
Prociaims Himself Worid's Champion and
 Wants Battle.

VALLEJO, Dec. 31.-The Vallejo Morning News of tomorrow morning will publish the following challenge from Tom Sharkey:
 VALLEJO, Cal, Jan. l, 1898.
 To Robert FitZsimmons, Esq, so-called Champion of the World-Dear sir: AS the columns of the leading papers in the United States have been used during the views of yourself, your brilliant man. ager, Martin Julian, and James J. Cor bett, eX-champion of the world, in re- gard to pugilistic matters, 1 deem that tt Is not impertinent in me to ask that be considered before this championship is tied with pretty silk ribbon and handed about with scented kid gloves between you and MT. Corbett
 The history of the prize-ring will bear out my claim to be the first man that you should meet, now that you have decided to re-enter the ring. It is a well-known fact that Corbett had the police interfere to stop the fight when I had him beaten in San Francisco. It is a fact known to you that l received a decision over YOU in that same city when we met there. and, aside from all contention, you know that you fairly lost the contest by foul fighting. However, I am willing to let that pass, and to show to the world be- yond dispute that I am your superior, I challenge you to a fight to verify the de- cfSion given in my favor in 1S96 am the undefeated champion of the world, and there is no need of you and your brilliant manager looking about for new worlds to you are clearly entitled to the champion ship that you claim.
 I now challenge you to meet me in a finish fight at the earliest possible date,

in the scramble for pieces of the doom ed State, or shall she oppose it's parti- tion? In such a crisis, the like of which has not occurerd since the res toration, the portfolio of foreign af- fairs is in the hands of a man in whom the nation has no confidence"
 The Tokio Shimpo takes the radical position that it is Japan's duty to sue cor China at this juncture, on the ground that the boasted civilization and Christianity of the western world is slowly tramping down right and justice in its descent upon the Orient.
 Aside from the excited discussion of the problem in China, the Japanese press is mainly concerned in the coun- try's extensive naval and military de- velopment. The expenditures on lar mament expansion this year will be S0,645, 721 yen and next year 3,250 900 yen.
 Brilliant field maneuvers have been executed by the two army corps of the north and the south in the presence of many foreign diplomats and military experts. The battle ship Yashima has just arrived from the English ship yards. She is the second of the big battle ships added to Japan's new navy, the first being the Fuji. They are sister ships of 12,517 tons displacement each, of 20 knots speed and in arma- ment and general appearance much like the United States battle ship In- diana. The Yashima is the largest war ship that ever passed the Suez canal, and it was found necessary to unship the heavy guns and take off some of the outer armor to get through the canal

LIKES THE ENGLISH Repudiates an Alleged Interview Scoring
 Them.
Says He Received Most Courte- ous Treatment by Jockeys
 and Trainers
Never Stated That He Had ao Offer to Ride for the Prince os.
 Wales.
Copyright. 1897. by James Gordon Bonnet,

PARIS, Dec. 31.-The Herald's Euro pean edition publishes the following:
 To the Editor of the Herald: Several days ago there appeared In the columns of the Herald what was purported to be an interview with me. It contained so many statements that gre absolutely in- correct that I think 1 am justified in calling your attention to the matter. may say, in the first place, that the treatment I received in England from both jockeys and trainers was courteous and friendly; that it would have been worse than a breach of good taste to make any criticism upon them, even had 1 had any to make, which is far from be- ing the case. In the second place l never stated that I had received offers to ride next season, either for Lord Will liam Beresford or the Prince of Wales. Indeed, it Is highly improbable that I can ride in England next season, as my exchange contracts in America seem likely to take up the whole of my time. Should 1 be able to arrange it I may ride for Lord William Beresford and NIT. Pierre Lorillard, but this is ques- tion that 1t is impossible for me to speak America.
 The two items will be sufficient to show you how your correspondent has been mistaken In the remarks he at tributed to me-remarks, l repeat, that I never made-and I beg you will give these few lines of correction the same prominence that you gave to the original article. TOD SLOANE

WANTS cATcH WEIGHTS.
" Parson DdYies Submits dn WHmctum to
 Mccoy for ChoYnski.

CHICAGO, Dec. 31.-"Parson" Davies, manager for Joe Choynski, the heavy weight pugilist, to-day issued the fol- lowing ultimatum in answer to Kid" McCoy's announcement that he would meet the Californian at 162 pounds:
 Joe Choynski will fight Kid" Nc Coy at catch weights at any place and at any time for purse of $500O. He will agree to no particular weight"
 Prospects for a meeting between the two pugilists. therefore, are not very bright at present. McCoy's first propo- sltion to Choynski was a meeting at 15S pounds. He afterward agreed to allow .Choynsh to enter the ring at 162 pounds, but Parson Davies will not lis- ten to any proposition limiting the weight of Choynski
 Heretofore the question of weight does not seem to have bothered Mccoy so much" he said to-day. Now, why Is he so particular in this instance? He fought Creedon at catch weights, and Dick O'Brien, and when he promised me match with Joe after the Long island City match, he said nothing sbout 1892 pounds. We will not agree .o pull the fight off at Carson City just ~ please Dan Stuart. That is too far aWsy. and we won't postpone the Ii,dteh until next summer either to piedse Mccoy and Dan Stuart"

It Is Hoped, However, That the Government Will Be Granted
 More Latitude.
FOOD FOR HUNGRY MINERS
At Present Mule Pack Trains Will Be Used in Taking Supplies
 to Dawson.
Special Dispatch to The Cali.
Call Office, Riggs House,

Call Off1ce, RlgSS House,
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.
 It has been discovered, on careful in spection of the permit granted by the British Government for the taking of supplies into the Klondike country free of duty, that the exemption ex- tends only to such goods as are gra- tuitously distributed. Under the terms of the act of Congress the Secretary of War is permitted to give supplies to such persons as are unable to pay for them, but the act seems to require that where the miners are able to pay for food the money Is to be applied to de- fray the expenses of the relief eXpedi- tion.
 A strict interpretation of the Brit ish permit would not sanction this ac- tion. Still, as the permit was in the shape of a letter from Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British Ambassador, transmitting a telegraphic acquies- cence by the Governor General of Cam ada, and since it was sent the Cana dian Secretary of the Interior has con ferred with Acting Secretary Meikle- john, with a full knowledge of the in tention of the War Department, it is believed that the Canadian Govern ment will not interpose any objection to our Government recouping itself as Tar as possible Dy SeIllnS supplies at cost to miners able to pay tor them.
 It appears that the plan of using reindeer as a means of transportation from the seaboard to the Klondike does not promise success owing to the inability of the Government agent, Mr. Kjellmann, to get the animals from Lapland in time to be or any service this winter. It is the present purpose of the War Department, therefore, to push through with the mule pack trains as far as possible, and old cam paigners assert that they can get to Fort Selkirk at least, leaving the rein deer to follow up the trail if they come along at all. The deer would be of the greatest use if they could be gotten through to Dawson, even without pack load, as they could be slaugh- tered for fresh meat
