IN THE POOL ROOMS.

In the pool rooms and in
front of the newspaper offices
down town, the same amount
CT interest was shown by the crowds
which gathered there. The crowd was
an hour ahead of time for the sched-
uled time, and many were unable TO
reach the blocks, after vainly strug-
Cling to fight their way through the
mob, which compelled them to abandon
the attempt.
During the day Sharlley had again
been installed in favor at odds of
10 10 s; but during the evening the sup
porters of Choynski, who had evidently
been holding off for longer odds, began
to pour their money into the boxes, and
the wagering soon reached ''evens, -
at which price lots of money continued
to be placed. A low estimate of the
amount wagered upon the event in this
city places it at from $4,000 to SSC,-

San Francisco, March 11.-Tom Shar-
key. the sailor pugilist, and Joe
Choynski, the veteran of a hundred
wards pavilion in a 20-round fight for
so per cent of the gate receipts, under
the auspices of the National Athletic
club. After keeping the crowd of 1000
spectators waiting for over an hour
after he entered the ring, owing to his
objections to the men nominated by
his opponent and the club to referee
the contest, Sharkey gave disgraceful
exhibition of foul fighting which Gull
minated in his hurting Choynski
through the ropes upon the chairs be-
low the platform, in the eighth round,
at which stage of the game the referee,
at the suggestion of the police declar-
ed the fight a draw. Sharkey repeated
ly fouled Choynski during the three
rounds preceding this, but the referee,
George Green, seemed ratified by the
whirlwind rushes of the sailor, and was
in an undecided state of mind whether
to interfere or allow the fight to take
its course. He seemed to have an idea
to his own personal safety should he
declare the battle against the wild sail
or. Choynski clearly outpointed Shar-
eky in each and every round, and was
only worsted when it came to wrestling
tactics. which is the sailors favorite
method of fighting. He would rush at
ChOynski and swing his ponderOus
arms at random, with no seeming OBJ
ject in view.
Choynsh withstood them fairly we'll
with straight punches in the face. 1t
was apparent to the great majority of
the spectators that had the fight been
fair on the part of Sharkey, Choynski's
superior cleverness would have return
ed him the winner. Tonight's disgrace
full exhibition by the sailor probably
ends his pugilistic career. so far as get
ting another match in San Francisco is
concerned. His unpopularity has in
creased ever since his fiasco with Fitz-
simmons in this city two years ago.

Lime is essential for fowls. Old mortar, broken bones, egg shells and broken oyster shells are convenient for them, but the egg shells should be broken up fine to prevent teaching the hens to eat their eggs.
 Corn flour used in adulterating wheat flour is made like wheat flour. The corn is crushed between rolls, and the flour is dusted out as the meal runs over a bolt. This meal is crushed and rebolted several times, until nearly all the starchy part Of the grain is in the form of fine flour This corn flour is mixed with and sold as wheat flour. Considering that corn costs the miller about one-fourth as much as wheat, there is wide margin of profit in mixing the Hours.
 The proper way to clean a hen roost is to first carry everything out doors, roost poles, nest boxes and loose boards. Give them a dose of oil and apply the match. If the wood takes fire it can be put out by throwing sand on it. Now rake out all the fowl dirt, and give the inside good coating of whitewash. Do this once a month.-The Epitomist.

COUNTY REPUDIArIOx.


a RaFnsr raxPAysr's View q tAs Aetiea e
the csnAissioasEs.
Nm. EDITOR: believe that the acts
Of the county commissioner should be
noted and criticised BY all citizens, as
they are OF vital importance to all, and
that they should be a. open rs the day,
especially any acts involving the expen-
diture Of large sums OF money. These
should be given out through the county
press, that the people may canvass them
thoroughly before the board takes final
action on them. that their final decision
may conform rs much As possible to the
opinions of those who ars most inter
ested in the result Of their actions. But
when the opposite course Is pursued,
when important cases are covered up,
or partially so, then the public has just
grounds for suspecting wrong doing or
corrupt jobbery. We have had some
expensive experience OF that kind al
ready, and was astonished 10 learn Of
an attempt by the commissioners TO re-
pudiate our county debt, Smith alone
dissenting and Dishman and Cable vOt-
ing for the resolutions to repudiate.
These gentlemen no doubt acted con-
scientiously. but 4 repudiating con-
science is very elastic.
The time 10 have acted In the case OF
the county bonds was when the securl-
ties were in the hands Of the parties
who, Ia collision with county ofIicials,
obtained the bonds for a trifie' Now
they are undoubtedly 10 the hands Of
innocent parties, and their title to full
face value would be good in law and
common equity. How would It be II
we lost the caseg Heavy court expenses

debt and what would we have to show
for itP Our credit would have received
a shock that Il would take many years
to recover from, and Il It was necessary
for Us 10 issue county bonds again It
would have to be at . large discount
and we would suffer another heavy loss.

II IL an undisputed fact that Ko0tenai

the proceeds Of the sale Of the bonds
and used the money. On what ground
has the board Of county commissioners

the taxpayers called upon them to take
this stepf Has the district attorney
advised such action? Il would seem to
the Herald that IL some other interested
party desired to test the legality Of this

for the county TO take the initiative and
incur the expense, It looks like neither
business nor public morals. The action

There have been rumos Of a Job In
connection with this repudiation bnsi-
ness, but the Herald does not care to
father such charge. The object Of
this article 10 to get some light upon the
subject, for we must confess It looks
queer upon its face. These columns
