o'Rourke Had to Run.

New York, Jan. 27.-There was a hot
time after the fight between Harry
Lyons and Joe Cain in the Hercules
Athletic club, in Williamsburg. After
the fight was awarded to Lyons there
arose a chorus of yells, cat calls and
jeers, and threatening fists filled the
air. IT'S a skin!" the crowd nowled.
He was only down eight seconds -
mo Mccoy fakei' yelled others. Things
looked bad for Tom O'Rourke, Lyons
manager, so he decided he'd leave.
Seven policemen escorted him to the
door and into a. cab. He got away, fol-
lowed by a rain of sticks and stones
Johnny Eckhardt, the referee, was also
seen to the door through the angry
mob and escaped. Arthur Williams, a
colored boxer. tried to get out by him
self. He was with O'Rourke's crowd
and punched back whenever he saw a
head. A policeman whacked him over
the head with his club and he dropped

scented to a postponement of my match
with Erne, which was to have taken
place October %. He should agree to
fight me at a date later than February
2. To prove that I'm not in proper con-
dition, DR.. Vaughn, one of the most
prominent physicians of Hot Springs,
has thoroughly examined me and GER
titles that 1 am unable to box anybody
at so early a time as next week.
Malaria and a heavy cold have
knocked me out, and believe 1 should
be commended and not condemned for
being on the level with the people who
might put their money on my chances
in any contest. I've always been honest
and mean to remain so. I was in bad
shape when I made my announced de-
parture from my training quarters. I
believed would be opposed in my wish
to make the sea trip and short stay
in the south. SO I slipped away. I ex-
pected to get back in good trim to fight
Erne, but my constitution was still
poor, so I came here. I'll soon be all
right, and then l want to fight Erne.'

New York, Jan. 27.-The admirers of
the manly art are all agog now over the
contest which will set at rest all claims
as to the ownership of the title OF
featherweight champion of the world.
experts all have reason to believe will
be one of the warmest arguments ever
carried on between the ropes, at Chi
cagO. on the night of Thursday, Febru-
airy 1.
ON that occasion Terry McGovern, the
Brooklyn phenomenon, will meet Eddie
Santry of Chicago, who, by his defeat
of Ben Jordan. England's best little
man, last October. won the title that is
now in dispute. It is everywhere con-
coded that Santry is the best man who
has yet been picked to go against Nc
Govern, and a battle royal is promised.
Like MeGovern, Santry is a man with
a knockout, as in nearly 40 battles in
ton has been the result of one sudden
Well-landed welt, after which his Oppo-
nents lost all interest in the proceed

He is but few years older than Nc
Govern, strong, Scientific, and care

down to defeat before McGove~n on
January 8, on three different occasions,
twice losing the decision, and the third
time scoring a draw in 20 rounds. San

should have been awarded eaTe last bat

now in thorough training and full of
confidence. George Siler will referee

Thought Actor Bonlface Was His Old
Opponent

New York. Jan. 27.-Tom Sharkey has
been matched to meet Joe Goddard in
a six-round contest in Philadelphia
within three weeks.
1t is reported that Bob Fitzsimmons
has purchased the Aulic hotel at Thirty
fifth street and Broadway, and after
extensive alterations will open in OPP
position to James J. Corbett, his one
time ring antagonist, who conducts a
cafe further down the street.
Persons who are not we'll acquainted
with either of the men often mistake
George Boniface, the actor, for Jim Cor
bett, the former pugilist, but one would
never suppose Bob Fitzsimmons would
be guilty. Boniface walked into the
Metropole cafe yesterday with Schnitz
Edwards. He passed a. table at which
the lank Australian was seated, and,
turning toward him, said: Hello, Bob 1;
how are yOu2''
Fitzsimmons' face assumed an ex-
preston of hauteur, and he made no
reply Boniface walked to the rear of
the room and in a moment the fighter
went back. 4 want to apologize to

SAFE AND EFFECTIVE.
A Certain Gore for a Common and
ANNOYING Disease.

Many people suffer from piles because
after trying the many salves, ointments
and lotions without relief or cure, have
come to the conclusion that a surgical
operation is the only thing left to try
and rather than submit to the shock
and risk of life of an operation, prefer
to suffer on.
Fortunately. this is no longer neces-
sary, as a new preparation has been
discovered, which cures every form OF
piles, without pain, inconvenience or de-
tention from business.
1t is in the form of suppositories.
easily applied at night, is absolutely
free from cocaine, opium or any injur-
ious drug whatever and no matter how
severe the pain, gives instant relief, not
by deadening the nerves of the part eff
fected, but rather by its healing. sooth-
ing effect upon the congested, sensitive
membranes.
The name of this preparation is Pyra
mid Pile Cure and is undoubtedly the
most effective, safest and most extern
sively sold of any pile cure that has
ever been placed before the public.
This reputation has been secured by
reason of its extraordinary merit and
the reasonable price at which it is sold,
all druggists from Maine to California
selling it at SOC for full sized treatment,
and in many cases a single package has
been sufficient
A person takes serious chances in
neglecting a simple case of piles, as
the trouble soon becomes deep seated
and chronic frequently developing into
fatal, incurable rectal diseases Like
fistula and cancer of rectum.
Any druggist win tell you the Pyra-
mid is the safest and most satisfactory
pile cure known to the medical ira
ternity.
