The ten-round sparring contest
came off as per advertisement last
Monday evening between OBrien and
Magoon, and was witnessed by a large
crowd. 1t was very mild and harm
less affair and no blood split, which
was owing to the large-sized ''pillows"
that bedecked the hands of the com
batants, that it was impossible to hit
hard enough to draw blood. After
chasing each other around the ring
for an hour and half, the main object
appearing to be to see how far they
could keep out of each others reach,
the contest was decided draw, with
honors in favor of-the best man.

InhaledIron Filings

CHICAGO, Jan. 17.-Oae of the most
remarkable operations in the history of
surgery has been performed at Eugle-
wood Hospital upon an iron worker
named John Glass. The operation re-
sulting in the removal from the mans
body in the region of the first rib, a lot
of iron filings which are believed to
have been absorbed into his system
through the lungs. A great number of
iron particles were found imbedded in
the fatty stratum which lies between
the surface of the ribs and the cpl
dermis. The largest piece was about
the size of half dime. No less than
forty pieces varying in size from that
down to pins head were taken from
the sides and bottom of the sinus. The
smallest is much larger than any parti-
Gle that could possibly have foated in
the air.
