Roands to q Draw,

Marty McCue. OF this city. met something oil
a surprise party in Jack McClelland. OF Pitts
burg In a twenty round bout at the Pelican
A. c. last night. While McClelland came
on from the West with quite reputa-
ton. 1t was expected that he would ex-
plode like many others from the
same section. but his case proved
contrary 10 the rule and he demonstrated his
right to be classed as a good man. The bout
resulted in one OF the fastest contests Wit
messed In this vicinity in some time McCue
possessed all his well.known science
and clevsrness, and although McClel-
land was by no means graceful he sue
ceeded in making Marty fight ono OF the
hardest bouts OF his career. Most Of the spec
tators sym pathized with McClelland and wanted
to see him win. but the referees verdict
was lust one. They weighed in at 126
pounds. Frank Herald was the referee.
There was O long intermission before hcCue
and McClelland got into the ring. While the
crowd were waiting for the appearance OF the
stars. they were treated to an impromptu scrap
that almost reached the stage OF panic. Two
spectators became involved In 4 dispute over tho
decision In the Reagan and hcPaddsn tight aud
their friends Joined in the discussion. Sud
denly there was a wild miI-up. Ten policemen
jumped into the fray and hustled the disturb
eTS out out not tne Test Ol tHo Spcc-
tators became 80 intetested in the
affair that they were standing on their seats.
The crowd were Just comfortably in their
seats when McCue and McCelland entered
the ring. They agreed to break clear at the
order Of the referee.

ing bout OF ten rounds at 122 pounds. The
last three rounds were very fast. neither OF
the boys having q decided advantage. The
referee called 1t draw. The second bout was
for fifteen rounds at 115 pounds. The piinci-
pals were Hugh McPadden and Johnny
Reagan. both OF BROOKLYN. Reagan had the
crowd with him and II wasn't long before
McPadden began to tire. twas with difficulty
that his seconds succeeded In getting McPad-
den up for the tenth round. Hardly three
seconds had elapsed before he showed signs
OF quitting and the referee stopped the bout
and gave the decision to Reagan.

Bid Farewell to ST. Paul.

An audience that represented largely
the best musical element in st. Paul filled
Rau6enbush hall last evening to listen TO
the farewell concert given by Mr.. Harry
E. George and Mr.. Percy B. Churchill.
Both young men have. by their con-
scientious work as vocalists, contributed
in no small degree to the present high
musical standard that st. Paul maintains
and the large number of people who were
present at the concert last evening testi-
fed TO their appreciation of the musicians
as well as to the popularity of the in
oividuals.
Both Mr. George and Mr.. Churchill
were in excellent voice and their choice
of old favorites pleased the audience i'm
mensely Ihey were assisted by Miss
Florence Marion Pace, soprano; Miss
Maud Earl Burdette, contralto, and Miss
Gertrude Sans Souci, pianist, Mr.. Rhys-
Herbert acted as acconpanist.
The opening number, Oesten's Invita-

Pace, Miss Burdette, Mr. Churchill and
Mr.. George 1t was rendered with verne
and finish and with an exquisite blending
of voices.
Mr.. George sang two numbers, 1.-THE
Beating of My Own Heart" by Shetezh,
and Rogers cat Parting" His fine tenor
was never heard to better advantage and
the singer was enthusiastically encored.

proprietor Of a printing establishment
in the Baltimore block, who had a fistic
encounter last week in which Deringer
came out second best, got together again
yesterday and this time Deringer was
badly worsted. On the right side Of his
head Deringer received a blow that
raised a big lump, one Of his ears
was bruised and swollen, while
he had q cut nearly two inches
long on The top of his head and another
wound on his lip. Blood flowed freely
from the cuts and those who saw Deringer
say he presented a sorry looking spec
tacle
The second row between the printers
resulted from the first. Deringer had
Curtis arrested and considerable bitter
ness was engendered between the men.
Deringer says he was proceeding to his
office Yesterday when Curtis attacked
him. He says the attack was unexpected
and that Curtis had him at disadvan-
tage. knocking him Almost insensible and
then proceeding to beat him. Der1nger
saws he was knocked down and that
Curtis only ceased the attack when by
ISLANDERS interfered. Soon after the en-
counter Deringer visited county Attor-
ney Bigelow's office and demanded that
he be allowed to go before the grand
Jury. He claimed that under the statute
relating to persons wearing glasses, that
the case was one for the consideration
of the grand jury.
The original charge of assault and
battery preferred by Der1nger agalllst
Curtis is pending in the police court

NOTHING IS BETTER.
Impossible to Manufac-
ture a Better Remedy.
St. Paul People Make Good Witt
nesses of the Success II
Has Achieved.

There can be nothing better for back
ache, nervousness, sleeplessness and all
ailments arising from kidney disorders
than Morrow's kld-ne-oids 1t is i'm
possible 10 manufacture a better kidney
remedy. Kid-ne-oids contain the yerv
best ingredients that are good for all
ments arising from the kidneys The vast
number Of people in this city who have
testified TO the merits Of Kid-ne-oids Is
sufficient proof that none of our claims
are false.
Mrs. G. Fl. Bradit, 333 East Robbie St..
says: II had almost despaired Of ever
being relieved of kidney backache, rheu-
matism, bloating of the stomach and
other distressing symptoms of kidney
complaint, for 1 had used different kinds
of kidney remedies without obtaining
relief, when 1 decided to try Morrow's
Kid-ne-oids. Kid-ne-oids relieved me
completely of all my former troubles. 1
will always speak good word for Kid
ne-oids."
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills, but
yellow tablets and SELF at fifty cents a
box at all drug stores and at Ticknor &
Jagger's drug store.

HUNG DAVIS ON CELL DOOR
THE STATE PRISON AT
SALTWATER
Reported That Thirteen Convicts
were Put 'in the Hole" for As
saulting Single Guard, Who
Yet Lived.

The board of managers of the state
prison at Saltwater will meet at the
prison this morning
Ihere has been some talk of an inves-
tlgatlon into the recent claiming I'D Of
some convicts for days on diet of
bread and water The GLOBE is In
formed that thirteen convicts were chain
ed up in connection with the assault
on Guard Coaroy, although only two
or three of them had actively paftlci-
pated In the assault, the grievance
against the others seemingly be ing that
they said they did not know anyth NJ
about it.
The Conroy trouble, it has leaked out,
started with an accusation by the guard,
formerly Minneapolis policeman. that
ne mad caught convict named Wilson
looking out the window. The accusation
was accompanied, 1t is said, by a threat
to knock his brains out if he caught him
looking that way again Wilson re-
torted that he would report Conroy to
the warden and, according to the story
or the convicts who were in the vicinity,
Conroy hit him with his cane Wilson
tried to protect himself and one of the
other convicts came to his assistance
with spool used in preparing twine for
shipment
Conroy, who had a record on the Min
neapolis police force for rough treatment
of prisoners, is accused of having carried
old grudges into the prison life
In an effort to make a young convict
named Davis confess the details of the
Conroy assault, it is charged, he was
kept chained up days without food or
water. Then he became unconscious
and hung to the door by his chained
wrists.
