BURKE AND QUINLAN.
Their DISQUALIFICATION Commented on

On
In English Varsity Circles.
LONDON, July A dispatch from New
fork. which has appeared in the sporting
papers, announcing the disqualification of
Burke and Quinian from competing in the
college athletic contests, has caused COM
ment In university athletic circles. c. H.
jackson, the burser of Hartford College,
oxford who has charge of the Oxford
Cambridge team, is quoted as saying in an
interview:
oxford or Cambridge would never have
entertained, such insufficient evidence,
the raising of any objection to Burke's
amateur status. Undoubtedly, in 1885,
when the New York and London Athletic
Clubs contested, if the newspapers were
correct, Burke transgressed the racing
rules as recognized in England But no
notice was taken of the matter at the
Tune by the officials on either side or by G.
Jordan, the competitor most affected.
The clause in the challenge requiring a
list or the competitors to be filed with the
secretary of the Amateur Athletic Asso-
citation of Great Britain. prior to July %
teur Athletic Association and not in the
hands of oxford and Cambridge We only
nope that If they object to Burke and Ouin-
Ian they Will do SO before the men sail
July o. l am sure, from experience with
I ale IN 1884 and 1896, that her standard of
amateurism Is thoroughly satisfactory and

MOODY DEAD.
Greatest Of All Evangelists
Passes Away Dec. u.
Stricken in Kansas City After
Preaching to IS, 900 People
The Night Before.

East Mortified. Mass,-Dwight
L. Moody, the famous evangelist,
died at noon to-day. Mr.. Moody
returned home a few weeks ago
from Kansas City, where "A heart
affection forced him to discontinue
his preaching. 1t was hoped rest
would restore his health, but in
spite of temporary favorable symp-
toms he grew steadily worse until
the end came to-day.
He preached his last sermon on
Thursday night, November 10, fully
$4,000 people listening to an earnest
appeal that many stamped as one
of the evangelists greatest efforts.
He was stricken the next morning
at his hotel, but laughingly declared
he was all right and that he would
be able to preach that afternoon.
He grew worse gradually, how
ever, and it was deerAed best to
start him for his home the next day,
although his physician stated Mr.,
Moody's condition was not necessa-
rily serious.
Dwight Lyman Moody was born
in Northfeld, Mass, February S,
1887. He worked on a farm until
he was seventeen years old, when
he became clerk in a Boston shoe
store. After joining the Congrega-
tional church he went to Chicago
and began missionary work among
the poor with great success. During
the civil war he was employed by
the Christian Commission. Later a
church was built for him in Chicago
for his converts. The edifice to-
gether with Mr.. Moody S home, was
destroyed by the fire of 1871.
In 1873, Mr.. Moody, who by this
time was famous as lay missiona.
ry, accompanied Ira ID. Sankey to
Europe. They instituted weekday
religious services in England.
Scotland and Ireland, arousing
great enthusiasm. Returning to
this country the evangelists contin-
ued their work. In many large
cities they conducted immense re-
vival meetings. Their work was
not confined to the United States,
but took them frequently to the
British Isles. Mr.. Moody was Il
strong, impressive speaker, and his
efforts everywhere were invariably
with success.
Mr.. Moody was we'll known in
Louisville. His first visit there was
IN 1888, when he conducted a big
revival meeting at the tabernacle
built for the purpose on Broadway,
between Fourth and Fifth. He was
last there two years ago at the Au-
ditorium.

BRUTAL ASSAULT
Made on Ermine Johnson by a
.MurderOus Negro.
Frank Kenner I'm Jail Charged
With the Crime-The Boys
Death Almost Certain.

A murderous assault was made
Thursday evening about six o'clock
upon u white boy named Ermine
Johnson, by Frank Kenner, burly
negro. The boys injuries are al
most necessarily fatal. Johnson is
a son of J. T. Johnson, who lives on
North Virginia street. He is about
10 years old and on Thursday after
returning from work took his faith
er's to waterip company with his
younger brother. Ashley returned
from the river and were preparing
to milk the cows in the alley two
negroes passed by and one of them
kicked one of the COWS. The older
boy demonstrated with him and one
of the negroes with an oath pidked
up heavy piece of slate coal and
struck the boy a murderous blow
on the head. Johnson sank sense
less to the ground and the negroes
took to their heels. The younger
boy who was in the lot ran to his
brothers. assistance and found En-
mine lying on the ground.
called for help and the neighboh~
appeared and took the wounded boy
in charge. Drs. Jackson and Rev.
holds were sent for and found the
boys injuries very dangerous, if
not mortal.
His skull waa crushed and it was
found necessary to remove a piece
two inches sxuare.
Browder Campbell and Tom Pen
dleton, two negroes were arrested
the same night and placed in Jail.
The boy thought Campbell was the
man who struck him, but was not
positive about it. On Saturday
Frank Kenner and VIII Talley
were arrested and Kenner confessed
that he was the guilty party.
Yesterday morning Campbell and
Pendleton were released and Ken
ner was held over by Judge Leavell
and the trial set for Wednesday.
Talley is also in jail charged with
being an accomplice.
Kenner says he come by and the
boy cursed him and he in turn
struck him. Those who know John
son say this is not in accordance
with the moral and peaceable hab-
its of the youth Johnson was still
living yesterday, but his death is
expected at any moment. His pulse
was only 90 and there is not one
chance in ten for his recovery.
