being no infghting during the twelve of
the twenty rounds the go was to last.

CuHoush showed up long and lean and
about ten pounds, apparently, lighter than
Corcoran. He had the advantage in
Reach however. Corcoran looked in prime

IL was that strength and his wind that

The first Two rounds passed without any
serious work. 1t developed in the drsf
however, that Corcoran ,vas up AGAINST a
hard man TO lick. and McCullough's clev-
erness was of an order that nut every-
body talking about 1t. He is one OF the
smoothest men on his legs that ever came
this way, and his lodging was simply per-
lection, He had a way of going down un-

In fact, it was that ability TO dodge and
avoid punishment that got the crowd

but McCulloughs unders landing of the
game pulled him through many a tight
place where the tactics pursued by Cor

Corcoran's PUSHES were strong and swift,
and there was nothing for Il but for Ne
Cuilough TO work every trick of boxing he
knew. His lean body would go down with
a swifness that was incredible. and his
left arm would be up as a guard at the
same time.
Presently Corcorau's seconds got to call

Tough would go down. They claimed he
would fall without being hit. Going TO the
floor is all right If a man gets The light

a blow, the rules say. The referee couldn't
see that Mccullough was falling oftener
than he should, however, and the man did
not even get a warning about It. See

Justified in fighting his fight as he saw fit
he was heard to say in the afternoon that

In the third round MeCull0ugh's head

his ducks, and his teeth cut Corcoran's
forehead. II looked during that round as
If it might be McCulough's fight The
blood streamed into Corcorans left eve

of at least 5000 persons, there is no neces-
ity for making further additions at pres
ent. Including the unused space in the
older lots held by private owners, to-
gether with the addition to which 1 have
just referred, there is yet space in Laurel
Grove cemetery for 10000 additional inter-
ments, or sufficient room to last the city
fifteen or twenty years longer.
Instead Of being in an undesirable
quarter, as has been stated to be the case"
said Mr.. Daff1n, "the new dots are situat-
ed in the most desirable portion of the
cemetery. This is the southwestern part
where the rolling nature of the ground
gives an attractive appearance which is
not possessed by other portions of the
cemetery. The lots are not only well sit
uated, but the nature of the ground Is such
that they are susceptible of such further
Improvement as the purchasers of the lots
may desire TO make AS evidence that
the lots are not undesirably situated, some
of the best people in the city have recently
made purchases of these new lots. We
would be glad to have all citizens who
are interested in this question visit Laurel
Grove and inspect for themselves the new
lots which have recently been thrown open
to purchase"
As the city receives $40 each for these
lots. its investment of $1,000 in improve
ments in Laurel Grove should prove quite
paying one, as at the figure named the
$50 lots are worth $11 Co.,

Evans Alexander Turned over to the
Superior Court for burglary.
In the Police Court yesterday morning
Evans Alexander was turned over to the
Superior Court for the offense of burglar
izing the house Of his benefactor and pro-
tector, Joseph Simmons. Evans is a boy
that was taken early in life into simmons
house. and has since repaid the kindness
by making several attempts TO break In
and steal in the absence of Simmons and
his wife.
His last attempt was committed Wednes-
day night as stated in yesterdays Morn
ing News, and led to his arrest. Forum
ately, he was on this occasion frightened
away before he could secure any money or
article of value and the matter was at once
reported TO the police. Simmons is a bailfff
in the court in which his scapegrace pro-
tege win be tried.
The case against Sarah Wilson. charged
with stealing SlS from her employer, Miss
Muslin, was dismissed by the Recorder, as
the evidence did not disclose the woman's
guilt or furnish such reasonable ground
for this belief as would justify her deten-
ton. 1t was asserted that the money had
been stolen while the girl was engaged as
a servant In Miss Mustin's home.

The home of Mrs. 7. d. Kline. at 70 Tav-
ior and Abercorn streets was open to Wis
TORS yesterday afternoon. and last night
for the inspection of a rare and valuable
collection Of Mexican curios and her own
beautiful drawn and lace work.
Exhibited on the walls, where it show

pieces Of the rich work that is done in
Mexico, but none is SO delicate in execu-
ION or so fauliless in every stitch as that
uohe by the skuful hands of Mrs. Kline
herself. That was the judgment of all the
ladies who attended the display. and they
are competent to express opinion upon
such matters. Her drawn pieces and Bat
tenberg, renaissance and honiton lace had
been seen before by many Of her friends

inspected il for the first time
The exhibition was for the benefit of the
fresh air fund Mrs Kline was assisted
in receiving by several charming young
ladies', but her explanations of the curios
ana Interpretation of their uses and sig
nihcance were sought by the visitors. as
her knowledge of the Land of the Ma

a long residence. During the years she
spent in Mexico she accumulated her
many treasures and articles of richness
and rsreness make the collection such as
hardly exists elsewhere in this country.
Mr.. William Kline, the talented young
artist of New York, a son of Mrs Kline
has many Of the best articles of the col
lection, as he finds them invaluable in the
settings for his pictures. Several of his
paintings were hung in the room used for
the display and were greatly admired.

PAVING NEARLY COMPLETED.
More Brick Paving Likely TO BE Laid
in Lanes.

in Lanes.
The brick paving in Congress street lane
between Whitaker and Barnard is nearly
completed and will be ready for travel in
a few days. The pavement presents a very
neat appearance and is great improve
ment on the Old cobble-stones.
The petition to Council, which was pre-
scented at the meeting this week by a num-
Der Of property owners, requesting that
Congress street lane between Bull and
Whitaker be similarly Paved, has been re-
ferred 10 the street and lane committee,
and Sill probably be favorably reported at
the next meeting. AS 1t win require the
upturning of not over three or four inches
of soil in order 10 lay the paving il is not
likely that the sanitary board win inter-
pose any objection. The use of brick in the
lanes in place of cobblestones is a very de-
sirable sanitary improvement in itself and
one which can be further continued with
advantage. II would greatly improve the
appearance and the sanitary condition of
Bay, Broughton and Congress street lanes
If they were paved their entire length with
brick.

Games Scheduled With Charleston
and Atlanta.

and Atlanta.
June promises TO be a lively month for
baseball in this section Of the country.
Atlanta, Charleston and Augusta are all
actively engaged in Americas great game.
In Atlanta there is a strong city league,
which is being largely patrouized The
league is composed of the Fireman, /"
Southern Shops" Merchants" and "At-
lantas." A picked nine from these clubs
will come down next Thursday to play
the Young Mems Christian Association
club here. The Atlanta Journal states
that a large number of Atlanta's fans will
come with the boys to witness the game
In Charleston interest in baseball has
been worked up by the playing of the
College of Charleston, Citadel Academy.
Grace Church and Porter Military Acad-
envy clubs and now that the Charleston
club has been organized by Mr.. Charles
Mathews, the interest in the games will
doubtless Increase.
The first game Charleston win play with
when the Savannah Young Mems Chris
tian Association viii take a team over to
cross bats with them.
Augusta has written the local Y. M. c.
A. again regarding games but the rail-
roads are apparently blocking any games
in that direction. If the friends of base
ball in Savannah want to see games here
this summer they should turn out in fun
force to witness the game next week and
encourage The home boys.
