On Monday afternoon and night
The Jctfries-Sharkey pictures will
be seen at the Grand Opera House
under the direction of W. A. Brady
The fight begins, and all the sports
seem spellbound with interest.
Jcffries couches low as he did in
fight. Not many blows are eX.
changed in the first round, but in
the second where Sharkey took TO
the boards by the lett hook on the
jaw is accurately shown. The
third round shows Sharkey rushing
wildly, while Jctfrles meets him
with body blows. The fourth round
is hot, and some of the sports in the
pictures are seen to rise and cheer.
Sharkcy misses a lot of swings in
the sixth and seventh rounds while
Jeffries lands. The eighth, as
shown, is very vicious, while the
ninth is made up of clinches. The
tenth round reproduces Sharkey's
damaged left eye, result of a iab,
showing the blood streaming down
his check bones. In the next JEFF
fries can be seen beating the sail
ors face. Nothing daunted, Sharkey
still seems aggressive, and jeff ap.
pears to take to his chair very
tired. In the thirteenth round the
spectators grow excited as Sharkey
rushes with vengeance and fouls
the champion after missing aswing
spinning around, coming back
with his elbow close to the boiler
makers jaw. The famous four
tcenth and fifteenth rounds are
vividly reproduced, being hard ones
and full OF acton. The sixteenth,
Sharkey appears TO have stagger-
ed the champion and his left swings
seem tc settle Jeffries, and in the
next two rounds he retircs to his
chair rather dejectedly. The twenty

A FIRE AT sAvIN ROCK,
Old Observatory Burned to the
 Ground

Old Observatory Burned to the
 Ground.
 An old building called the Savin Rock observatory and situated on the rocky hill at the end of Beach street, Savin Rock, was burned to the ground early yesterday morning. The fire is believ- ed to have been the work of some tramp as the building had long been used by them as roasting place. It was dis covered by a bicyclist, who aroused Michael OConnell, proprietor of the O'Connell house, and he sent in an alarm from the Sea View hotel The fire department responded, but as the building had already been burned to the ground, confined it's attention to the trees In the grove, which were burning like finder. Several bath ing houses on the shore also took fire, but both fires were soon extinguished by the firemen. The observatory was on old frame tower-like structure, which was built nearly forty years ago.

GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Celebrated Yesterday By MT. and Mrs.
 William Geary,

1 Celebrated Yesterday By MT. and Mrs. William Geary
 Mir. and Mrs. William Geary of Il Clark street yesterday celebrated their | golden wedding by a reception to few
 Of their friends and family reunion.
 Mir. and Mrs. Geary were married fifty years ago yesterday at the old St. { Mary's church in Church street, the site | at present of Polls theater. They formed one of six couples married there
 at that time and attended the church there for many years until they moved
 into St. Patrick's parish, having been
 members of the latter church for owe"
 thirty years. MT. Geary has been one
 of it's trustees for long time and has
 always been member of the Knights or
 St. Patrick. He is one of two survlVors
 of the original incorporators of St. Francis Orphan asylum and is still one
 of it's board of managers. In 1875 he was elected member of the board Of
 aldermen, serving one team. He is
 seventy-one years of age, one year younger than Mrs. Geary. For more than thirty years he conducted gro cery at the corner of State and Clark streets, but withdrew from that busi- ness some years ago and has since de- voted his time to looking into his prop erty interests and the piano business of lis sons. Four of nine children sur vive, William Nj. and J. Edward of this city George T. of Brooklyn, N. r., and James J. Geary of New York. Mr.: Geary is a sister of Thomas CunninS- ham, the Franklin street cigar manu- facturer. The couple were the reeipi- ents of many beautiful and valuable mementoes of the occasion, including $100 in gold from their sons, fifty roses from Dr. O'Connor, fifty white roses from Mrs. w. M Geary, a handsome lamp from the Misses Sheridan, fifty daffodils from their grandchildren. Mrs. Geary last evening presented to each Of her granddaughters and to her grand niece a beautiful gold ring. The two granddaughters are Elizabeth Marion, daughter of George T. Geary, and Gene vieve, daughter of William M Geary. The grand niece is Madeline Leahy.
 MT and Mrs. Geary are remarkably young looking couple for people of their years and both are in exceedingly good health. MT. Geary was a member ot the Washington Arena Guard, which was organized about 1852 under sta.e charter granted by Governor Seymour, whose inauguration the company at- tended. After the company was dis banded by Governor Minor under or ders issued by Adjutant General Will Hams, the members reorganized them selves as the Emmet Guards, MT Geary being also member of this organiza- tion.
 Mrs. Geary speaking yesterday of the changes that had taken place in the city since her marrraige said that at that time there was not house on Hamilton street, while many built since are nearly worn out.
 The friends of the couple yesterday wished them many more years and ex- pressed the hope that they would live to celebrate their diamond wedding.

illumination. Then followed men with
 great silver maces and fans, and then
 a series of platforms holding tinsel
 vases which contained flowers, Tn the
 center, on a two storied throne, with a gold and jewelled umbrella over his
 head, dressed in robes that would
 stand alone for richness his neck
 laden with garlands of the fragrant
 starry jessamine, rode the bridegroom
 This structure was borne by men. Be- hind came more lights and tinsel and music.
 Arrived at the house a great tent was in waiting, money rugs or silver dishes; then the Koran is, brought forth. Together they open and read the first verse that presents itself; a looking glass is laid on the book, the bridegroom raises the veil, and in the glass gazes on the face of his bride, now seen for the first time.
 Usually she Is so timid that she keeps her eyes shut tightly at this critical moment The women press around to see the first look and all is mirth. Suddenly, however, every face is deluged with tear-real tears, and the bride cries most heartily. I asked when seeing such ceremony for the first time why this astounding trans formation took place, and the answer was pertinent enough. They replied Hitherto she has lived with us; we have taken care of her; neither trouble nor censure has ever been her lot. Now she belongs to her husband, and goodness only knows how he will treat her."
 After the wedding the girl departs weeping, the more loudly the better, and reaching her house she may be the only occupant, or there may be others. The house is scantily furnished and wanting in articles that are essential to the poorest white woman. Her house is usually small, but even if she goes to house of palatial extent the women's apartments are dark and un-
