OF well known remedies the full
strength of which are concentrated in

lated TO retard the actions Of the rem

Prize Fight at Frisco.
san Francisco. May T.-There was an
enormous crowd in Mechanics pavilion
last NIGHT 90 witness the sHarkey-Jef-
fries scrap" ana It was treated to
some "arte-belL' sensations. Hardly
hal the crowd become well settled when
an accident happened which for a time
babe fair to assume serious proportions.
The seats elevated CT the whole end OF
the west side OF the pavilion suddenly
collapsed and the occupants were piled
in confused heap. For q brief period
it was believed that many had been
fatally injured, but il was subsequently
ascertained that none Of the bruises was
serious.
Next a second section Of seats on the
northeazt side Of the building came
down il q heap, and the audience was
again thrown into a state OF uproar. A
few moments later another section in
the northwest corner collapsed and the
great crowd was almost in a state OF
panic. Then the whole side OF the eie-
waited seats came down in q terrific roar.
and the audience was almost beyond
control Almost every tier Of seats in
the house had now fallen, and the 5000
or 5000 people on the main floor were
packed in al excited crowd. The police
finally managed TO ailay the excitement
by assuring the crowd that no one had
been hurt by the collapse CT the gallery
seats and that there was 10 danger
At the end Of The twentieth round
Jeffries was awarded the decision or
points. but both men were tired.
