McGovern and Palmer TO Meet in n 25.
Round Bout.

Round Bout.
New York, Sept. 10.-Terry McGovern
of Brooklyn and Pedlar Palmer Of Eng
land are to meet tomorrow afternoon
for $4,000 purse in a 25-round go at
l16 pounds before the Westchester Ath-
letic club, Tuxedo. and the fight has
attracted unusual interest.
McGovern and Palmer, the sports
men say, are two very evenly matched
lighters, and as each has trained hard
there should be a battle from start to
finish. Both are clever. game and clean
cut. They have scores of victories to
their credit. are pugilists of the widest
popularity in their respective countries,
and consequently the interest will be at
fever height. A number of Englishmen
have come from the other side to back
Palmer and witness the fight and
scores of them already in America will
journey from distant points for the
same purpose The preponderance of
money here is naturally in the hands of
the Americans and almost to a man
they have picked McGovern to win.
Consequently he is a favorite in the
betting. The only time the Americans
ever saw Palmer in the ring was on
Jan. 30, 1896, when he fought George
Dixon six-round draw in Madison
Square garden. Then he made a most
favorable impression. On the other side
ne mas whipped Sucn men as Billy
Plimmer, Billy Rotchford, Ernie STAN
ton, Dave Sullivan, Dave Wallace and
Billy Murphy.
whenever Terry McGovern steps into
the ring it is a case of fight from the
beginning of the first round until a de-
cision is reached. He is aggressive, a
hard hitter and good taker of punish
ment. Among those he has defeated
are Johnnie Richie, Sammy Kelly, Billy
Barrett, Casper Leon, Patsy Haley, Joe
Bernstein and George MunrOe.

don.
The German press unanimously de-
scribes the verdict as cowardly and
impolitic, not to say criminal.
The Cologne Gazette says: TT is a
cowardly verdict, in the barbarous
spirit of the middle ages. By this crime
the judges have imposed line of de-
narration between France and the rest
of the world, which. although it will
not prevent diplomatic intercourse and
stay the common exchanges of pro-
ducts, will, according to all the notions
of right, justice, honor, tolerance and
ethics which the civilized world bears
with it in the Goth century, form a bar
rier only to be removed by time and
laborious effort" :
The other leading journals comment
upon the verdict in similar strains.

nowhere more hated than in Russia.

INITIATE ANIMALS.
~ CurhouA CiaAs of Clever Actors
Who Are Never Seen by
the Public.

From the beginning of the drama an
lmals have beeE introduced in plays,
and represented on the stage by ac-
tors especially trained for such parts,
although few players care to assume
these characters, which are at best ac-
robatic. In THE Frogs of Aris-
tuphanes an ass is one of the LEADING
features, and in "The Wasps" two dogs
play important ,'arts, as one is the ac-
cuser and the other the defendant in
contest over Il piece of stolen cheese.
Racine has quarrel between two dogs
Tor the possession of a duck in one of
his plays. The ass figures in many of
the miracle plays, and is also intro
duced in some of the earliest English
dramas, being an element of fun that
was dear to the playwrights of the time.
There is bear in ''Siegfried," which
does not call for great exhibition of
histrionic power, but the most famous
stage animal is probably the dog that
caused Goethe's retirement from the
direction of the theater at Weimar. In
play that was to be produced there
a dog had to identify his masters muir
dcrer by leaping at his throat in court.
he poet and the grand duke of Wcimar
disagreed over this episode. n dispute
followed and the result was the for
mcrs retirement. Whenever a monkey,
cat or dog is required the actor must
be man of extraordinary agility, and
the few players who take such PARTS
to-day make a speciality of them and
build their regulations on the faithful
ness with which they can impersonate
some humble animal.
One OF the most famous actors of this
kind was NJ. Groutfe, who was known
as the IMAM monkey" ard was very
