o'RouRKE WHIPS BUTLER.

Providence, May 1e.-Charlie O'Rourke of Cambridge, Mass, made short work of John E. Butler, the col ored pugilist of Lynn, in a fight that was scheduled for fifteen rounds at Thornton last night. In the second round he fioored Butler seven times with terrific hooks and swings to the head and wind. Butler was outclassed from the start. A challenge to the winner from Martin Judge of Chicago was accepted by O'Rourke. There was vigorous preliminary of six rounds between Monk, the Newsboy,'' of Providence and Hugh Clancy of Paw tucket. The newsboy had the better of the argument, but both were on their feet at the limit.

 Middletown, May 16.-The athletic contest at McDonough theater last night was farce. The preliminary bout was to have been between Billy Truman of New York and Chic Tucker of Brooklyn Truman failed to show up. John Fitzgerald of New Britain substituted for Truman. The first two rounds were Fitzgerald's. The third and last were for Tucker There the police stopped the bout in the third round, as Fitzgerald had an eye cut and was groggy. The decision was for Tucker. Patsy Corrigan of Brooklyn refused to go on for the star bout of twenty rounds with Billy Moore of St Louis, claiming the house was too small to warrant his getting the guar antee back. Moe Harris, the referee, declared Corrigan's $25, which he had posted, forfeited. Kid Lamar of Chi cago was substituted for Corrigan. police stopped the fight in the second round. Lamar had his man almost knocked out.

 Bristol leads the league and Water bury won the only game she has to her credit from that team. That is one of the mysteries that can never be explained. Tom Owens said it was all because the thoughts of that song he sung in the Elks minstrels, and he says he will never do it again.

W. A. Brady says he is figuring on match between Jeffries and George Chrisp, the English heavyweight cham pion. Chrisp weighs about ITO pounds, and is matched to meet John O'Brien of Philadelphia, middleweight, the latter wagering odds that he will stop the Briton inside twenty rounds. When O'Brien gets through with Chrisp the English champion will be unfit for any more fights with Ameri- cans. whom hesonce barred.

JEFFRIEs MAY NOT FIGHT.

Judging from the way Jim Jeffries expressed himself yesterday it is not at all likely that his encounter with Gus Ruhlin is assured. The champion is waiting daily for word from Billy Delaney, his trainer, who Is in San Francisco, but thus far he has not heard from him. II have decided9to go to California next week. said lief fries. My intention is to see the matchmakers of the clubs on the coast and find out what they are really going to do about the encounter. If the bat tie does not take place as I expect, I will return east at once and go to Buff falo. 1 will go into business there and incidentally give boxing exhibitions with my brother Jack" Jack Jeffries leaves for San Francisco tomorrow. Jack is suffering from sore knee, the result of wrestling bout with the boil ermaker a few weeks ago. Jack bruised his kneecap. He paid no at tention to the hurt and in few days the knee began to swell. A physician diagnosed it as blood poisoning and Jeffries was compelled to remain in bed for a week. The doctor said dye from pair of tights got into the wound.

The gradual reduction in plate thick
ness in the new boat begins at the end
of the mid section plates, which grow
thin as they extend out inte the over

TEMPLE OF SCIENCE.
New York to Have Building Devoted

New York. April I.--An announce
ment of great interest to the scientific
circles of the metropolis has been made
by the council of The Scientific alliance
of New York. For the past ten years
the Scientific alliance has been consid-
rring the subject of the erection of a
building which should house the vari-

the advancement of original research
which they long have needed, but ow-

tial progress has hitherto been made.
The plan which is now announced
has been under advisement for some

Il temple Of science costing SJO0,000.

SUBMARINE SIGNALING.

Boston, April 7.-Half a dozen men

The experiments in the use of the

well as of Canada be allowed to inves.

The steamer proceeded down the har-
Dor as far as Winthrop head, off which
was anchored the Sea Bell, curious
looking scow, looking very much like
houseboat, with a towboat riding the
waves near by. The Sea Bell contained
the bell with which the signaling was
to he done. Within the little house on
the Sea Bell hung the great bell, under
which i'm the center of the hull was the
wellhole through which the bell is low
cred with the apparatus for ringing 1t by
electricity. A six horsepower gasoline
engine supplies the power for the small
dynamo used. The bell can be lowered
into the sea to any depth by the wind
lass used. Today 1t was sent down to
Il depth of about Is feet.
An electrical mechanism upon the
Sea Bell makes 1t possible for an opera
tor to sound the bell any number of
strokes. On keyboard like that Of a
typewriter are keys connected by wires
from the dynamo to commutator

board or ashore can send any message
he desires. The Morse system can he
used if desired, and any message can
he sent In this manner as easily as one
can be sent over telegraph wire.

HERR KAMPE BUILDING BOAT
He Outlines His Plans before a Vien-
ma society-PetroIeum the Motive
Power-The Strange Craft to
Carry Five Persons.

London, April 7.--At recent meet
ing of the Vienna Geographical socie-
ty Herr Kampe outlined his plan to
reach the north pole In a submarine
boat now being built ut Wilhelmsha-
ven.
The boat will be ellipsod in form,
with major axis of 70 feet, breadth
of 26 feet and displacement of 800
tons. The boat will hold sufficient air
to last five persons Is hours, the car
bonic acid gas being removed by n
combination with caustc soda. She
will have both horizontal and vertical
screws, the latter for raising and de-
pressing the vessel.
The motive power will be petroleum,
of which $50 tons will be carried. This
amount is calculated to be more than
five times what Is necessary for trip
from Spitzbergen to the pole and back.
In the Is hours during which the
boat will be able to stay under wa
ter it can cover 80 miles. 1t will be
submerged at the edge of the land Of
ice surrounding Spitzbergen and will
be steered toward the nearest open
| water to the north.
| Herr Kampe does not think that the
ice pack is of a greater depth than 20
feet, and the boat can descend 100
feet. If after six hours no opening in
the ice can be discovered, the boat will
return to the last opening, but il the
pack is thin attempts will be made to
blast and open it.
Herr Kampe does not think that the
Ice pack continues unbroken in any di-
rection for more than five miles.
