Fi,zsImmons Prime Fayorite.

New York, May 20.-As already fore
stadowed the danger OF postponing the Dig
battle between Bob Fitzsimmons and Jim
Jeffries to suit weather conditions has
been averted. Yesterday contract was
clinched between the management and q
kinetoscope company that proposes to take
pictures of the fight with the aid of arti-
fetal light. and the roof will not have to
he taken off unless something unexpected
occurs. The talk that Fitzsimmons will
go into the ring possible ! to shot is
not taken seriously by the sports. JEFF
fries is gaining friends daily and the
money is going down on him. The pre-
vaiiing impression, however, seems to be
that he will not last more than five
rounds The odds yesterday were quoted
at 500 to $40 in favor of Fitzsimmons.

SPANS BOY KING.
Alfonso XIII Unpopular at Home and
Unhappy.
From the London Globe.)

From the London Globe.)
One of the most interesting figures of to-
day is Alfonso XIII, King Of Spain, who
belongs entirely and exclusively to the
twentieth century. The years that he has
passed on this side Of 1900 have been few
and irresponsible. He does not take up
the reins of sovereignty or assume the
cares of kingship until 1902, and between
now and then revolutions may overwhelm
his hapless country.
But he already sits upon digniied
throne and though at present he Is un-
known outside his own palace, he has a
near prospect Of ruling the destinies Of
| 200 OF subjects.
Few kings, even of Spain. have begun
life under worse auspices. His name is
upfortunate; his number a pledge Of bad
luck. His unhappy father was dead before
he came into the world, and his mother.
the daughter OF an Austrian archduke. was
confronted with the hateful task of ruling
an antipathetic country.
So far the mother has emerged from an
impossible situation with a certain distinc-
tion, II without much glory. But the son
will have a harder task set him than ever
fell to his mothers lot, and he will face
the music inexperienced and unframed.
His aspect is familiar to everyone IN
Madrid, and his presence has never yet
succeeded in arousing enthusiasm. Now
! and then, as the guard is changed outside
! the Palace at Madrid, pale, harassed face
is seen gazing from window.
The face appears suddenly. and as sud-
denly passes from your sight There is
the King" murmurs lazy onlooker, and
| the King 1t II, who looks out upon his
people uncheered and almost unrecognized.
| So, too, you may meet him driving in the
afternoon in sad solemnity. No one raises
| a hat or does reverence to the boy who
has succeeded to some of the honors which
| we're Philip Tvs. Even II the casual cab
man makes room for the royal cortege, he
does 1t with q bad grace and with the
| air of man who has gone out Of his way
to pay . compliment to mediocrity. And
yet in this King Of thirteen years there
should be all the elements Of romance.
He b young. unfortunate and . moAaxeh.

G.me Given to 81. Louis.

The perverseness of Captain Gleason
was the cause of the forfeiture Of the game
at ST. Louis yesterday by the New Yorks.
The visitors claimed that Umpire Burns
was endeavoring to rob them and the home
players contended the same concerning
Umpire Smith. Tebeau was ordered from
the game and of the grounds for wrang-
ling in the fifth inning. and in the sixth
the same dose was administered to Captain
Gleason, of the Giants. Gleason refused TO
obey and the game was given to st. Louis
by the score of to 0. From start to finish
the affair was one ceaseless quarrel be-
tween umpires and players and consider
able bitterness was engendered. Burns
decision regarding the forfeit Of the game
was rendered at the close of the sixth in

of the New Yorks. At times 1t seemed that

1t was said of Melik Shah, one of the

ticeship in principles. In serving the
sultan one grew like him, and stand.

upon the life of the royal master. the

Death of a Prominent and Useful
Citizen.

''JOhn S. Orr died at his residence
in Millersburg last Saturday, July
18th, at 6 O'Clock am, aged 66 years,
months and "a days" says the
Holmes County Farmer. He was
born i'll Lancaster county, Pa, Feb.
"a, 1888, and came to Ohio when six
years of age with his parents, who
located at Benton. Deceased leaves
wife, IL children and 81 grand
children. the funeral occurred at 10
am. Monday from the residence,
Rev. Welshimer conducting the ser
vices. Interment in Oak Hill ceme-
terry. Deceased was a soldier in the
Civil war, being lieutenant in Co.
L, S7th Regiment owl. Pomerene
Post, GAR. attended the funeral in
a body.
"John S. Orr began teaching school
when 15 years of age and had follow
ed that vocation during the greater
part of his life. He was noted and
successful instructor and many a
man of today owes his practical edu-
cation to this source. He was county
surveyor for two terms, county clerk
two terms, was member of council,
board of education and county school
examiner. He was Jackson DEM
ocrat in politics.
He had been an invalid for practi-
cally the last eight years from the
effects of paralysis, and had been
confined a greater portion of that
time to the house and unable to per-
form any of his customary duties.
But Notwithstanding his affliction he
mover lost interest in the affairs of
his many friends or in public mat
ters in general, and retained to the
very last his naturally jovial and
companionable disposition. He will
be greatly missed. Peace to his
ashes"
The deceased was the father of
William A. Orr, a compositor at the
DEMOCRAT office. J. M. Latter and
Col. w. B. Taneyhill of this city
were pupils of Mr.. Orr.
