JEFFRIES AND SHARKEY.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-Although
Jim Jeffries and Tom Sharkey agreed
that the winner of their championship
battle should take the entire purse
when articles were signed three weeks
ago, a change will be made in the
agreement whereby the loser shall re-
ceive a percentage of the fighters
share of the receipts.
The change is made at Sharkey's re-
quest, who desires to have a losers
end of % per cent. William A. Brady
has. consented to the change on behalf
of JeffrieS, but in consideration of this
concession Sharkey will not be allowed
to wear bandages on his hands during
the fight.
At first Jeffries' manager refused to
consider the matter, but on second
thought he saw where he could gain a
point in favor of his protege, and
agreed to grant the sailors request.
providing the latter did not wear any
material on his hands.
A meeting will be held today, when
the articles of agreement will be mod
flied.
Sharkey's demand for percentage,
more Or less, at this. stage Of the game
will no doubt start his many admirers
and the sporting public guessing as to
the real cause.
On the face it would appear that
Sharkey does not feel quite so certain
of the purse as he did some months
ago.

THE MA0R| LAND"
Initial Appearance of Ra.
wei Last Night.
An Extremely Interesting Recital
ures at Y. NJ. G. A. Hall.

Rawei. the gifted New Zealand ma
tive orator, gave his first recital at the
Y. NJ. c. A. last evening TO crowded
house on the manners and customs of
the Maori people. with their traditions
and superstitions, illustrated with
lime-light pictures of the world-famed
beauty of New Zealand scenery, inter
spersed with weird native music and
singing.
Rawei, though not full blOoded Ma
orr, is a living example of the grand
possibilities of that people. He in no
way carries out the accepted type of
the Maori, whom the outside world is
prone to associate with all that is saw
age and barbarous. On the contrary,
Rawei is rather under the average
height, of pleasant features, refined.
highly educated, and a most able and
eloquent orator
His description of some of the pc
culiar habits, customs and remarkable
superstitions of the Maori people was
bright and instructive, while the many
beautiful views of that wonderland
New Zealand, called forth repeated APP
plauSe.
Not the least beautiful was repre-
sentation Of the pink and white ter
races of Lake Rotomahana, just now
reforming after having been totally
destroyed in the great eruption Of
'Tarawera," some thirteen years ago.
The wonderful sulphur baths and mud
craters of Rotorua, the matchless seen
cry of the beautiful Wanganui River
all called for their share of applause
equal merit.

.'TE COLONEL.
The Canine Member of the Boston
Lyric Opera Co.

Miss Josephine Stanton, comic opera
prima donna of the Boston Lyrics, has
at least one guardian who watches over
her welfare with jealous eye. 1t is
a big and handsome ST. Bernard dog,
named 1.-The Colonel" He is of the
purest bred being out of the Duke of
Montrose and valued at $4,000. The
Colonel is the fine sopranos closest
companion. 1t would be a sad day for
him to miss the morning three mile
stroll with his mistress, or to be de-
barred the privilege of stretching out
in her practicing room, when ''exer
cises'' is the business of the hour He
accompanies her to the theatre at night,
and sleeps in her dressing room while
the performance is going on, but knows
instinctively the final fall of the CUR
tain, when he gets ready for departure.
1t would be a rash act indeed Cor

street If The Colonel is near at hand

convey the "meddler" to the hospital
for repair.

a genuine bur pleasant surprise last
nigh. He was taking Life comfortably
=. home when hack drove up 10 the
door and 4. w. Seabury, one of the

desired. Ignorant OF the cause Of his
hasty summons, he hurried TO ehe
works only to find about thirty of his
former workmen gathered round his
Old desk on which stood a beautiful
clock. In a neatly worded speech Mr..
Winterstein, on behalf OF his fellow
employees. presented Mr.. Hoffman,
with the timepiece and expressed the
wish that his future success would
prove as marked as during his manage
ment of the company. Mr.. Hoffman,,
who was manifestly touched by the
friendly spirit which prompted the gift,
suitably responded.
