THE BOXING BOUTS.

Rice and Murphy Fight a Draw-The
 Other Contest.
 The St. Patrick's T. A. B. society held it's midwinter Twentieth Century smoker at it's club room last evening and served up for the delectation of a numerous gathering fine literary and athletic programme. MT. King, clever imitator of characters Hebraic gave several humorous selections which were received with generous applause by the assembled guests. The athletic end Of the performance consisted mainly of boxing bouts, the principal feature or which was fifteen round glove contest between Austin Rice, of New London and Hughey Murphy, of Brooklyn. Marty McCue gave as decision a draw, but the concensus of opinion was in favor of Rice, who did most of the leading and all the effective landing of blows in the go.
 The star attraction was preceded by two of lesser magnitude. The first was to have been for ten rounds between Frank Hallett of this city, and Jimmy Lowe, of New York, but Hallett showed such evident superiority that the bout was stopped in the middle of the fourth round and the decision went to home talent.
 The second go was ten round draw between Billy Barrett, of New York, and> Jack Lowry, of Brooklyn. This contest was one of | he uveuest ever seen in New Haven and no decided superior ity was shown by cit her boxer
 In the last contest Rice came out strong and without a mark while Me- Padden at times was bleeding and his back showed the punishment Rice ir- fiicted on his kidneys. Nearly all pres ent thought Rice entitled to the decls- ion, but McCue thought a draw was the proper outcome and so declared.
 The clubhouse was filled with an en- thusiastic audience of invited guests, all of whom enjoyed the evening to the utmost and Messrs. Kelly, Kenyon and O'Donnell deserve much praise for the entertainment provided. The club ex- pect to give another of the same na- ture next month and will try to surpass last evenings fun.

sciously. He quoted in support of this the case of a criminal who prayed to the Virgin Mary for success in the commission of crime. The proper treatment of prisoners consists in giv- ing them constant occupation that will result in habits of industry. The meth cd must be not emotional, but educa- uonal. They should be taught to gov ern themselves. Above all, that strong est human emotion, the love of liberty, should be brought to bear. The indeter- mlnate term of imprisonment depen- dent upon the prisoners good behavior IS more useful in this respect.
 The last century, the speaker con- cluded, has been remarkable for it's de- Velopment of methods of reform. This century. he predicted, will be more re- markable for effective measures to pre- vent the commission of crime.

so east of Shedds, where they
held a grand opening of some
mounds which had been located
there. These mounds are about
fifty feet in diameter and four or
five feet high. It is believed
that they were thrown up cen
turies ago by parties now
dead. They contain skeletons
ofprehistoric tribes, arrow-heads,
and light on the history
of savage man.
1t has been discovered that the
soil in these mounds is much
richer than that of the surround
ing country. Whether this is
due to the fact that valuables
were buried there, or because the
builders brought rich sell from a
distance, is a matter for the SO.

OF Interest to Cyc1ers.

From present indications, 10 il
but fair to presume that no at
tempt will be made to do any
thing officially regarding the
collection of bicycle taxes in
this county this year. In many
other counties no action has beer
taken in this matter. According
to an act passed by the last legis.
lature the matter is practically
placed in the hands of the county
court, and they may or may not
act in the matter as they see fit,
although the law says that they
"shall' have power and author.
ity to levy at the same time that
other taxes are levied, on or be-
fore March I, 1901, a license
tax Of one dollar, ''to be paid by
any and all persons riding a
bicycle in such counties as have
exercised the authority above
described ON such paths as here.
matter provided"
The Benton county court saw
fit to follow the lead Of ether
counties in this matter and made
no provisions for the collection
of the bicycle tax, along with
other tax items prior to March
I, 1901, for the reason that the
law was only approved about a
week prior to this date and the
court held no session during the
the interim.
Section of this act says that
the court "may" order a war
rant to the sheriff of the county
to collect a license of 81 on all
delinquents as shall not have
paid said license tax prior to
April the first of each year.
From the above it will be
seen that this matter is left
wholly in the hands of the court
and it has seen fit to take ne &C.
ton whatever in the matter and
in this way will escape entangle-
ments that have befallen other
counties.

A Wild Ride.

E. E. Wilson and B. w. john
son, the pamphleteers, had an ex-
perience Sunday which would have
tried the nerve of men engaged in
other lines of business. They left
Corvallis in the morning behind
team from McMahon's stables and
drove to Monroe, for the alleged
purpose of collecting views for the
coming Benton county pamphlet.
There is no Sunday closing law in
Monroe. But that is another story.
Returning home in the evening
at $50, they had reached point
between the butte and Mac Porter's
place, when the bolt which held the
single tree broke. The horses took
fright and lunged ahead, letting
the tongue fall to the ground. 1t
soon struck bump and a section
was broken off. This rendered the
buggy unmanageable, and Johnson
dropped the lines and began Jump
ing about as a movable ballast as
the buggy rocked from side to side,
between the ditch and a barb wire
fence. ''Jump far out Johnson"
said Wilson in that calm tone used
by him when addressing jury.
Johnson jumped, doing a couple of
half-nelsons and the strangle hold
as he grappled with mother earth.
A few yards further on, Wilson
alighted gracefully on the back of
his neck, rolling up on his feet just
as johnson was gathering himself
for a squirt after the team. 1t was
finally decided that the attorney
should go to a farm house and bor-
row a horse and buggy while the
postmaster guarded the demolished
rig. An hour after, as they we're
jogging cautiously into town behind
one of Dick Irwin's horses, they
met John Rickard who informed
them that their team was in his
stable and unhurt.
