yesterday morning with Oregon papers
Of the 4th. The news most conspicu-
ously printed was that of Jeifries' vic
tory over sharkey in the prize ring at
the end of twenty -five rounds, during
which the sailor made an unexpected
~ good showing. Both men were bad
~ punished. South African advices

evacuated Colenso and that a Boer
force is marching on Durham to pre-
vent the land of British troops. The

SHARKEY KNOCKED OUT.
Je1ries Wins in twenty-five Furious
Rounds.

Rounds.
CONEY ISLAND. n. Y, Nov. g.
James J. Jeffries retains the champion
ship after one Of the most marvellous
battles In the history of the ring. In
five rounds Jeffries had the better OF
the fight-in the first two and the last
three. During the other twenty Shar-
key forced the issue and like bull ter
rier was at the man increasingly. In
those twenty rounds Jeffries' great
weight and Drawn helped him to hold
0R the sailor and IN the twenty-secOnd
round he swung in a couple OF vicious
upper-cuts which made Sharkey grOg-
". There were 10000 spectators about
the ringside, including many ex-cham-
piOns.
In the midst of the twenty-fifth
round, nearly one minute before the
close, Jeffries' glove flew across the
ring. and Siler, the referee. ran to help
him on with it. Sharkey held back un-
til his friends yelled at him not "a
stop. and 1t was Il three-cornered fight
for a few minutes. The referee got
Jeffries' glove and tried to draw 1t on.
This was difficult thing to do. and
then Sharkey rushed. Jeffries threw
up his glOved and uHgloved hand, and
with the former uppercut Sharkey. ST.
Ter ran between them and made sec
Ond attempt to assist Jeffries. The sail
or waited a moment, but, wildly excited
by the shrieks Of the spectators, he
rushed again. Siler dragged Jeifries
away and the gong rang. The referee
pointed to Jeffries' corner and his sec
Onds and friends cheered wildly.
The majority OF those at the ringside
hardly thought Sharkey would get
worse than draw. for the sailor
fought furiOusly. was always after his
man with good judgment. and outpoin-
ted the champion. On the other hand,
Je6ries. while he had the better, by
long odds, OF the last three rounds, did
very little leading In the other twenty
two, and when he led he was either too
high or too low, getting in but q few
good punches. The decision was not
announced from the ring. or, II 1t was,
few heard 1t, and q great mob surged
around for several minutes, yelling
and shouting for the victor and van
Quished.
SHARKEY SHEDS TEARS.
Sharkey was inconsolable. and cried
like . child when he went TO his quar-
ters. and refused to talk. but Tom
ORourke. his manager, expressed the
opinion that the sailor should have re-
ceived the decision. He said that two
Of Sharkey's ribs were broken. and that
during the last four rounds Toms left
hand was useless, having been broken
On Jeifries' head. Although the deci-
sion was against h,m, he said Sharkey
would not give up. but would seek an
other match. and the next time the re-
snlt would be different.
"But ] don't think this fellow will
want TO tackle Tom again" said
O'Seourke. "Ill keep after him,
though, until he agrees TO another
mseeting, or make him crawl"

WIFE SOLD FOR A PINT OF BEER.
Purchaser Went Dosn With The Maine Husband
Arrested For Non-Suppor.

New York, Feb. 1S.--John Hanley Of
isS Nelson street. who, prior 20 his dis
charge from the United states navy In
March 1898, on pension OF IS a month
had been a policeman and a street In
spector. was before Magistrate Brenner
in the Butler street court in Brooklyn,
on the complaint OF his wife, Margaret,
for non-support.
How is Il that you signed your name
TO the complaint as Margaret Hanley
Hamilton when your husbands name Is
Hanley?" Magistrate Brenner inquired,
as the woman. whose neck was orna~
mentod with a red, white and blue rib
bon, took the stand.
"Well. your honor" she replied, eight
years ago my husband, who was then
In the navy. sold me for pint OF beer
TO his old ship-mate, John Hamilton.
and ] lived with Mr.. Hamilton until he
was blown up with the Maine in Ha-
Nana harbor a year ago
Further inquiry brought out the fact
that there are three Hanley and two
Hamilton children I'm the family. and
that the latter got share Of the money
awarded by the government TO the fam
illes of the Maine victims, and that
Hamilton, who must have been thrift
~ sailor, i've years ago gave 20 Mrs.
Hanley $1,000 with which she purchased
the Nelson street house. I'm spite OF
the peculiar family relations. Hanlcy
and Hamilton always remained good
friends. and the former has always
made his home with his wife.
Magistrate Brenner dismissed the
complaint, telling the couple TO so home
and behave themselves.
"Iou had better not come into my
part ~ the house" said Mrs. Hanley 10
her husband and. opening her satchel,
and taking out "A small American flag,
she waved 10 defiantly I'm his face and
remarked: Jack Hamilton went down
with the Maine and I'll stick TO my
colors.'

INTERESTS PAID IN BLESSINGS.
$4,000 Worth Of Rappirsss'Nhich Befsl Some
ko!ormen OF Old Virginia.

In the prosaic life OF an electric car
employe 1t would be difficult to imagine
a more beautiful story than that which
comes from Eastern Virginia OF the
Christmas Eve OF the motomnen and
conductors of the Newport News and
Old Point Railway. The company was
about 10 change hands, says the St.
Louis Globe Democrat. and in arrang-
ing the transfer sum Of $4,000. ac.
cumulated IN the last seven years. was
found standing to the credit of the
stockholders, representing the amount
turned in night by night OF fares which
the conductors of the lire mad neglect
ed To ring up, generally on account OF
crowds.
At meeting OF the former stockhold-
ers. j. Il. Darling. who. with his wife
and son, held two-thirds of the stock.
proposed TO divide this substantial sur
plus among the employees as Christ
mas gift and q recognition OF their
faithful service. The other stockholders
emphalically objected. so the Darlings
decided to divide their two-thirds
among the men. Accordingly, each man
received his proportion I'm accordance
with the length OF time he had been in
the service. the cGRductors and motor
men receiving at the rate OF 20 Tor eN-
cry week since their connection with
the road. the engineers at the rate OF
s. a week. and others in the ratio OF
their salaries.
In this way the cashier Of the road.
who has been with IL since the first
spike was driven, received $1,000. One
conductor came in for s7l2. and several
others had sums ranging between $500
and 800 Most OF the checks were for
amounts between $3.50 ana $500. Very
few were lcss than 800, and they were
for men who had been with the COM
pany only for few weeks. The men
were bidden TO be at the power house at
midday, and a detected group they
were. none of them expecting but that
he had been called TO receive either his
discharg on rednc' - ~ salary, and
most of them having wives and famil-
les al home. When Mr.. Darling told
them why he had sent for them, there
went up such cheer as he Will remem-
Der as long as he lives. T'hen the checks
were being distributed the excitement
was indiscribable, and big men cried
like children" AS Mr.. Darling said af.
terward: Every God bless you was
worth $1,000"
