athletic held at Roger Williams Park. lie
asked that the rules be suspended and n
motion 10 that effect was carried through.
Councilman Cooke opposed the suspen-
sion of the rules.
Councilman Jones said the resolution
was substantially the same one as passed
the last City Council, but did not receive
the approval of the mayor. he dwelt
on the need of the athletic field and said
people who needed work would, III the
I'm provements were made. be given labor.
Councilman Cooks thought s3c, 600
could be better spent in building streets,
for city schools or for increasing tho
police, force than for speedway or n
place for boys TO play ball In. MIR. Cooke
said the city treasury WAS being devas-
tated and urged the spending of money
on streets or schools. Ire gentleman

DO very hard toYget mem bersito agree TO
the streets the money should be spent

thought they were well provided for.

said there was nothing more needed at

MUST HAVE ALL.
Dem4nd Will Be Made For All tho
 Philippine Islands.

DemAnd Will Be Made For All tho
 Philippine Islands.
 Washington, Nov. 2I.-The Philip. pine question is settled as far as the United States is concerned. The whole archipelago will be United States terri tory. If Spain will not accept the cash offer of the United States, which will be about $9O, 10000, the islands will be taken by force and Spain will not get cent for them.
 Explicit instructions have been sent to the American peace commission at Paris to make such demands, and Presi- dent Day has informed Washington of- ficials that such demands will carried out
 The American commissioners ill a written communication will declare that the third article of the protocol regard ing the Philippines is capable of only one fair construction, that no arbitra- tion is needed to elucidate its terms and that the United States can not admit any other power to figure here purely as lexicologist They will maintain that the two commissions are charged to determine whether Spain or the Unit ed States shall in future own the Phil ippines
 This will be accompanied by the clear declaration that the United States will possess the Philippines.
 Following this declaration the Ameri- can commission will lay before the Spaniards two alternatives:
 1. To accept q sum of money from the United States and cede and evacuate the Philippines
 2. To lose the Philippines to the Unit ed States by conquest, with the possibil- ity of other territorial losses to indemni- tfy the United States for the added ex- pense of conquest
 This communication may not be form ally designated as an ulttmatum, but it will lack naught of the conclusiveness indicated by that word This will be so plain that the Spanish commissioners will scarcely haggle for money on the first alternative nor cherish any doubt of American action under the second, should the first be declined.

THE coRBETT-
 SHARKEY FIGHT.
Takes Place Tonight-Pine Bluff Sports Manifest Much Interest

Tonight James J Corbett will either get back into the pugilistic game and become a factor in the championship struggle or will be put out of it for all time, to exist only as a memory.
 It is tonight that James J. Corbett and Tom Sharkey, the "sailor lad'' meet in New York City in a 20-round bout, for a purse of $20,000 The betting Is 100 to so on Corbett, but there is said to be plenty of Sharkey money "in sight"
 Many large bets have been made in this city, and it is said $2.000 will change hands in Pine Bluff on the result.
 We believe that COrbett being the cleYerest of the two can land three blows to Sharkey's one, but Sharkey Is built on the same order, physical ly, as FitzsimmOns, and ean stand almost as much punishment as an OK, One of Sharkey's powerful right hand uppercuts landed on the prop CT spot. would knock Corbett out. In other words there might be another one of those chance blows".
 Many well known sports, who, formerly, backed Corbett against all corners, have lost all confidence in him, on the grounds that they do not believe Corbett has, or ever will, recovered from the sOlar-plexus blow he received at Carson City.
 Mir. Mike Holland has made ar engagements with tke Western Union Telegraph Go, for a private wire. direct from the ringslde to the qnart- CTS of the Pine Bluff Athletic Club and all Pine Blutfians interested can assemble there this evening to hear the fight bv rounds.

Cuban Bric.a.brao In Vogue.

Curiosities and bric-a- -brac from Cuba are now slowly coming into vogue. Oddly enough, they were quite fashion. able 40 and 30 years ago. A favorite and one of the most beautiful objects imaginable is a bunch of crystals from one of the famous cayerns ill the lime stone district. Some of these are as clear as rock crystal, and are not alone many faceted but are often covered in pvrt with masses of large and small crystals of great brilliancy. When the faceting occurs in certain patterns, the crystal has the fire of precious stone and, ia a well lighted parlor will throw colored lights and fires in every direction. Still another beautiful object is mass of fine fern leaf coral, which is found near the keys in the middle and eastern part of the island. Some of this is so delicate that it suggests petrifed cobweb.-- Margherita Arlina Hamm in New York Mail and Express.

AWARDED TO A TEXAN.
J, ". OvoFton Secures Contract to
 Furnish Beef tO Troops In Cuba.

 J. W. OvoFton Secures Contract to
 Furnish Beef to Troops In Cuba.
 Washington, Nov 29, The quarter masters department has awarded the contract for furnishing beef for the American army in Cuba. The contract provides that the beef is to be furnished on the hoof. The successful bidder was J. w. Overton of Dallas, whose bid was 9M cents pound. The contract calls for 20, ,0O0 head of cattle. Nearly all the bidders were from Texas When the advertisement was first made 1t was pro- vided that only northern cattle would prove acceptable. southern cattle being excluded on account of the Texas fever. It was shown, however, that the war department had made mistake in call ing for northern cattle, for the reason that the cattle being destined for Cuba, northern cattle would contract the fever from the Cuban cattle. while southern cattle would be immune. This was the view taken by the agricultural depart ment when the matter was referred to that department. New bids were solic- tied in accordance with this decision, and nearly all the bids received under the second advertisement were from Taxoo
