JEFFRlEs WINS THE FIGHT.
Wins Over Sharkey In the Twenty
firth Round ON Points.

Wins Over Sharkey In the Twenty
fifth Round ON Points.
James ]. Jeffries retained his title Of
heavyweight champion OF the world Fri
day night at Coney Island, after one Of
the hardest battles ever fought by big
men in this country. Had the fight end
ed with the twenty-frst round Sharkey
would have been given the decision. With
the ending Of the twenty third round Siler
would have called it a draw. The last
two rounds, however, were SO far in
favor Of the champion that the result OF
the battle was apparent before the ref
cree, Siler, declared Jeffries victor.
Sharkey's tactics were very, very
rough, and he clinched and brought his
mans head into chancery dozen times
during the progress Of the fight. He used
the heel Of the glove after every clincn,
and in other ways transgressed the rules
repeatedly. Jeffries did not fight In the
form he displayed against Fitzsimmons.
He was wild in the earlier stages or the
contest. Els defense, too, was weak.
Sharkey landed left and right swings re-
peatedly where Fitzsimmons had faiied
utterly. He bore in, under, over ana
through Jeffries' guard at times as though
the latter had none.
1t was an even match as to strength.
The forcing was done by Sharkey, put
effective countering stood this OF to no
inconsiderable extent. The matter OF VI
tally did not figure as much under the
heat as was anticipated. Siler and the
seconds Of the men suffered greatly from
this, but the equatorial voyages OF the
sailor and the blasting furnaces expert
ence of the boilermaker made both men
practically immunes. 1t was an earnest
fight all the way through.
Siler's decision, while in accord with
the opinions Of the winners, and opposed
in some quarters by the losers, Is approx
ed by the non-betting and neutral critics
who saw the fight

Arms of the Roera.

The forces Of the South African Re
public are armed with the sporting model
Of the Mannlicher rifle, probably the most
deadly weapon of its weight and caliber
in the world. The Mannlicher rife weighs
about eight pounds and it's barrel IS ~
inches in length. Its caliber is 30. 1t
has killing range Of 1900 yards. At
that distance bullet will go through
two inches Of solid ash. The bullets used
by the Beers are full-mantled, that is,
entirely covered with a thin coating OF
copper or nickel. II this bullet strikes
at q range of 1000 yards or under it will
pierce bone without splintering. AT
longer ranges, however, it IS apt to
spread, making terrible wound.

Can Live without Arr.

The common snail, which, although II
has lungs, heart and general circnla-
ton, being in every respect an air

On the approach Of winter the snail
retreats into its shell, and hermetdcally
closes the opening or mouth with &C.
erection Of q silky texture, which is abso-
lutely impervious to both air and water.

A Big Fill.

On the Deadwood, S. D., branch Of the
Burlington Railroad is gulch 700 feet
wide, known as Sleeps Canyon. This
was crossed, until recently, by wooden
bridge, 1875 feet high, which took over
100000 feet Of lumber in the building.
Recently this trestle was filled in, and
the great undertaking attracted the at
tention of railroad men all over the coun-
try. 1t took twenty weeks to accomplish
the task. 1t was necessary to haul 1850
600 cubic feet Of earth one and one-half
miles up two per cent grade and unload
off the high bridge. This required ], 1886
trains Of fifteen cars each; $4,000 car
loads in aid. It was stupendous under
taking, but now the bridge can't burn,
and it doesn't cost lot of money every
year for repairs and watchers.

BLuNDER or THE BRITISH.
Blame for Ladysmith Defeat Divided
Between White and Carleton.

6etWGem white ana GarIetOn.
English military experts are agreed
that the defeat near Ladysmith was due
to bad blunders Gen. White is blamed
for not having provided means Of keep
ing in touch with Col. Carleton's column
and for not having made any effort to ex-
tricate the command from its untenable
position. Col. Carleton is blamed for
not having retired to Ladysmith imme-
diately after the loss Of his artillery and
ammunition through the stampede Of his
mules. In some quarters it is suggested
that the Cape boys who were driving the
mules and whose loyalty has been under
suspicion, caused the stampede in order
to help the Boer cause.
Gen. White, In giving details Of the
capture Of his left wing, says: "The lost
detachment under Col. Carleton started
Sunday night to seize Nicholson Mex,
thus turning the enemy's right. Carleton
got within two miles of Nicholson unmo-
Tested, when suddenly boulders were roll
ed from the hill and few rife shots
were fired. This stampeded the mules
drawing the ammunition and they disap-
peared in the direction Of the enemy with
practically all the gun equipment. Carrie
ton then entrenched his forces ON a
neighboring HILL At $50 a. m. Monday,
the Beers attacked the British in heavy
force. Their fire was searching and two
companies of the Gloucester regiment
were obliged to retire from their advanc-
ed position. The enemy then pressed In
at close range and our losses were num-
erous. At 3 p. m. our ammunition was
practically exhausted. When the Beers
stormed our position our survivors were
captured. The failure Of the column Is
due to stampeding Of the mules"
