Hid His Pistol In the Stove.

J. Her hid his revolver in the parlor
stove last summer so that the children
would not get hold of it, The revolver
was loaded, and when the cold weather
came fire was built in the stove, but
the revolver was forgotten. A fusillade
soon startled the family. The stove door
was blown open and the revolver's re-
coil sent it into the middle of the room,
where it continued to discharge the rest
of it's contents. Several of the shots mar
rowly missed the occupants of the room.

CHATTANOOGA, TenD., April N.-
Chickamauga Park was visited today by
at least $4,000 people. All the regular
trains running into Chattanooga were
lammed with sight-seers from the sur
rounding country, and an occasional ex-
cursion train was crowded to the doors.
Extra trains were run to the park as Of
ten as possible to accommodate the
throngs anxious to see the blue coated
United States warriors. The camp
grounds of the 18th infantry and of the
9th and 10Th cavalry, all colored troops,
attracted the colored people, and thous-
ands of them fingered near the tents all
day, laughing and chatting with the SOL
diers.
The unloading Of troops which arrived
late yesterday afternoon and last night, q
good many OF whom were compelled to
stay in the railroad yards on account of a
partial blockade ofthe track, was finished
before noon, and then the new arrivals

(colored), formerly of Salt Lake, but
now of Los Angeles, fought fifteen
rounds before the Los Angeles Athletic

the decision at the end of the fight.
Thompson was the stronger man all
the way through, and did most of the
leading. Parker fought a game, up
hill fight, and was badly punished. In
the fifth round Parker administered
some punishment, but for the most
part his blows fell short or were clev-
