In the Twenty-third Round in a
Remarkable Contest.
CORBETT'S GAMEFIGHT
POmpadOur Jim's Superior Clev-
erness Was the Feature.
The BOilermaker Shows Ability
to Take Punishment.
Full Details of the Great Con-
test at Seaside Club.

Seaside Club, May 12.-Jim Jeffries is
stin the heavyweight champion pugilist
OF the world. He defeated Jim Corbett
in the twenty-third round Of their fight
with q decisive knockout. The finishing
blow came as a sudden and startling
surprise. Corbett had been making
wonderful battle. His defense was alb
solutely perfect and while he was lack
ing in strength, he had held his own
and stood an excellent chance Of win
ming the fight had it gone the limit He
had not been badly punished and had
mauaged to mark his man severely.
The winning punch was a short left
jolt IN the jaw. Corbett dropped like
g. weight and was clear out. Jeffries
showed his ability to take punching at
any distance, and hard. He was clearly
outboxed. The crowd, which numbered
fully 5000, was with Corbett and his
defeat fell upon a silent crowd. There
were cheers given for him when he re-
vived and left the ring, and he was gen
orally shown more consideration than
Jefries.
THE CLOSING ROUNDS.
Throughout the fight there was
youth and strength with a fair meas
ure Of skill pitted against the master
of the sport. There were cries that
youth would win, but the partisans of
the man who possessed it had their
grave doubts. The pace was one that
would have told against any man not
perfectly trained. BY the seventeenth
round, Jeffries, maddened by the danger
of marring his reputation, began a Sc
ries Of desperate rushes in which he
mixed it fiercely with Corbett. He
seeemd angered by the jabbing at his
face and wanted to end it all with a
swing from left or right. .Corbett had
begun to show the pace, but while his
punches lacked force he was still speedy
on his feet He contented himself with
avoiding punishment. 1t became simply
a question of how long that sort of des-
perate game could be kept up
At the twentieth round it looked as
if Corbett would stay the limit. and
popular judgment awarded him the vic
tory. He had up to that time avoided
any serious punishment. His face was
unmarked and the scratches on his
shoulders and arms were more the re-
suit Of clinches than blows His de-
fense was still perfect and he was
smiling and G. nfident. He either side
stepped from Jeffries' terrible rushes or
ducked into clinches. Jeffrfes was
hammering away, however, and was
strong and game. The end came with
the suddenness Of a shock. The men
had had two fierce rallies followed each
time by long range sparring and were
fighting fast and hard. Suddenly there
was d report of a sharp blow and Cor
bett dropped. 1t needed no count to
tell that Corbett's hopes for the cham
pionship again were vain

Washington, vt. April 30.-Solon
b. Carpenter of this town died Satur-
day night after an illness of several
months. He was so years old and
leaves a wife, four sons, and one
daughter, Miss Claire Carpenter Of
Montpelier, to mourn his loss.
The deceased was a man of much
ability and has held many responsible
positions, among them being the re-
preventative from Washington at the
last session of the Vermont Legisla-
ture, where he took a prominent part
in the discussion of the local option
bill.
He was born in Orange. In his
early youth he was city editor of the
Davenport Democrat at Davenport,
Iowa, later he held a similar position
on the Rutland, vt. Globe. From
there he went to Washington, d. c..
as an attache of the U. S. Patent
Office and while there he was special
correspondent for several of the lead
ing daily papers of the country. In
politics he was republican.

White River junction, April 3d.
This village is in deep mourning for
the highly respected citizen and eili-
cicnt officer who was shot last Friday
by the escaped outlaws. There was
not in the whole town of Hartford a
more popular man than DR.. George
w. Hoffman.
Some months ago woman from
one of the adjoining towns was COM
mitted to the state penal institution
for bigamy. She had little daugh-
ter, bright winsome child of eight
or nine years. Rather than permit
the child, who had no relatives to
care for her during her mothers i'm
prisonment, to be sent to the poor
house, Dr. Hoffman took her to his
own home. He and his wife treated
her as one of their own family until
her mother, who was a woman OF re-
inement and really was more Sinncd
against than sinner, was free again.
The remains were brought here
from Pittstield Saturday night and
we're met at the station by a large
crowd of sorrowing townSpeopIe.
Deputy Sheriff II. II. Peck and Mrs
Hoffman accompanied the remains.
The funeral Services were held yes
tcrday afternoon from his late
residence just outside the village
ON the road to Wilder. The remains
were taken to Lyndon today for burial
in the family lot at the side of Mrs.
Hoffman'S S father.

Bethel, April 3o.-Frank Shaw is
dead shot. 1t is probably safe to say
that no handler man with a rifle
stands today in the state of Vermont.
Ten chances to one he, aimed for
"Doc" Hotfman's heart, and the cX-
cellence of his Workmanship in this
case, under great excitement as he
must have been. shows the skill of the
man.
On wager of $50 against 81 in
this town once, Frank Shaw at ten
rods distance hit a common nail in d
side of barn three times out of four,
fairly driving the nail into the barn,
and certain residents of Bethel recall
having seen him hit a nail four
times straight. 1t was all up with
DR.. Hoffman when Frank Shaw
pulled the trigger.
Dustin Shaw has served Il state S
prison sentence from Addison county.
Tie was sent to Windsor from Middle
bury, Sheriff Chapman's town and the
county seat, to long term for horse
stealing. Ripton is but eight and a
half miles from Middleblry.
The old man Shaw is said to have a
wife living at Glen Falls, N Y. There
has been some thought that the fugi-
tives are heading that way, but their
route favors the theory that they may
shortly be expected in their old haunts
at Ripton.

SURROUNDED AT Lake DUNM0RE
By Large Force Of Officers and Men and Their Capture
is MomenariIy Expected

Sheriff Thomas of Woodstock was
here yesterday to attend the funeral
and although he is nearly worn out,
he has gone to join the chase after
the outlaws. In regard to the Shaws
he says: They are now thought to be
quarantined in a swamp in West Roch-
ester, miles away from the scene of
the shooting, and their capture soon,
dead or alive, is probable.
Bloodhounds are not taking the trail
effectively and are not proving of very
much assistance in the hunt, but 200
armed men are pushing the fugitive
vigorously.
Thomas was but short distance
from Hoffman and Spatford when the
former was shot. He heard Hoffman
demand the surrender, when both
fugitivcs jumped for their rifles. The
old man Shaw said. "Don't let's shoot
Frank" but Hoffman had hardly call
n second time for their surrender say
ing: "Throw down your guns or III
bore you" when Frank Shaw fired
and Hoffman fell after a quick eX-
change of shots, both officers having
rifles.
Thomas saw the men running
through the trees but not knowing
whether they were his own men or
not was afraid to shoot. =.
