PERMIT GRAN TED
 FOR THE B|G FIGHT
Mayor FleisChman of Cincinnati Impressed With Strong Argu-
 ment of Committee

Cincinnati. O., January 25.-Mayor Fleisch- mann today granted the Saengerfest Ath- letic Association a permit to have two sparring matches at the Saengerfest build ing on February 15-one of ten rounds and one of twenty. The committee today called on the Mayor and presented its plea that the permit be issued at once. They stated that in view of the fight being made against proposed contest between Jeffries and Ruh- lin to aid in lifting the Saengerfest debt they did not think that it was just to them that the Mayor should withhold his permit until two days before the fight was sche- duled to come off The committee said if fight were to be made in the courts against the contest 1t should be done at once. They asserted that the contracts for remodeling the Saengerfest hall has been let and the work was ready to be pushed when the per init was granted The Mayor said that he had not before had these views presented to him. He admitted their force and at once issued the permit.
 The Saengerfest directors tonight gave out the following statement:
 The sparring contest for the benefit of the Saengerfest deficit will be held on the scheduled date, February 15, 1901 The az itation of the contest question has been an educational one. The Saengerfest deficit is now a known fact throughout the land. Even in our own city, for the first time, 1t is now generally known that the Saen- gerfest directors have a judgment of near ly s70,000 hanging over them, incurred while extending the hospitality of our city to thousands of visiting singers and strang- CTS. We propose to act strictly within tho law. We have assurance from every side that this contest would result in the larg- est gathering of business and professional men from outside of the city that have ever assembled here. That their coming would not only result in paying a goodly portion of the unfortunate deficit, but would be benefit to the business community The many inquiries and orders for seats coming through Cincinnati business houses from customers abroad show that this is no idle expectation. The excursions already ranged from dozens of the target and many of the smaller cities is equally as convinc- ing. Since his honor Mayor Fleischman, has issued the permit, all doubts as to the contest are removed from the success of the undertaking"

Madame Modieska.

The public need hardly be reminded that Madame Modjeska, the great Polish actress, is to fill an engagement at the Jefferson Theatre next Tuesday. The event has been heralded and anticipated with growing in terest by all who have any regard for the great achievements of the American stage.
 ''t since it was announced that she was to
 ar as Constance in King John'
 for her is an entirely new role, an ', ed importance is lent to the occasion The play itself has been a stranger to the stage in this country ever since the title role was played by Junius Brutus Booth. In presenting it now. Madame Modjeska is following the lead of her famous English contemporary, MT. Beerbohm Tree, who re- gently gave the tragedy a. sumptuous pro- duction in London where it enjoyed an inn mense financial success. The part of King John will be assumed by MT. R. D. Me- Lean, whose long establishment as a star makes an introduction unnecessary. Mr Mclean and Miss Odette Tyler, who has also very popular following, were espec- ially engaged as Modjeskas leading sup port Miss Tyler will appear as Prince Ar thur, in which character she is said to have made an enviable success.
 A special matinee will be given. Marie Stuart will be the bill at the matinee.

"The HighWayman."

In an interview in New York short time since MT. DeKoven said: MT. Smith and myself appreciate artistic merit in a comic opera and We think The Highwaymen' con- tains the most conscientious work of our career in collaboration" When theatre goers realize that DeKoven and Smith have written fourteen operas they can appreciate the value of the above statement. 'The Highwayman" is certainly an artistic opera if one is to judge from the good things that have been said regarding it, wherever presented; it ran for over two hundred nights at the Broadway Theatre in New York, where some of the critics pronounced it better than Robin Hood" It will be produced here exactly as it is in all the larger cities with excellent singing and acting cast complete and realistic scenery, magnificent costumes, etc. Local theatre goers are to be congratulated on the oppor- tunity of witnessing such performance and is to be hoped they will turn out en masse as such productions are rare and should be commended and endorsed. '"The Highwayman" will be at the Jefferson The atre next Friday night

Wonders of Liquid Air,

No lecture given in the CITY for a
long time has excited so much general
interest as the lecture on Liquid Air
to be given tonight by Prof. j. Ernest
Woodland, under the auspices of the
Young Mems Christian Association.
The Opera House will contain a bril-
liant audience. The following is the
testimonial of a superintendent of pub
lie schools in a city where the lecture
was recently given:
The lecture of Prof. ]. e. Wood

in every respect a brilliant success.
more than meeting expectations. Prof.
Woodland is a pleasant and able speak
er and skillful manipulation. His ex-
periments never failed. The wonders
of liquid air were most effectively
shown. 1t has enough of the spectacu-
lar to make it intensely interesting to
any audience. By general judgment, it
is the finest science lecture we ever
had"

THE BODY OF AN INFANT

Washed From the Twelfth street
Sewer Yesterday Aftcrnoon-Cor-
oner Schultxe Investigates the
Case and Orders the Body buried.
Yesterday afternoon at a quarter be-
fore 3 o'clock, William Steger, who
happened to be on the wharf, saw the
body of an infant wash out of the sewer
at the foot of Twelfth street. He pulled
it out upon the shore and Capt. w. II.
Hall, Of the steamer Baxter, who had
been attracted to the scene, notified the
wharfmaster of the find, and through
him the police and Coroner Schultze
were notified.
In the meantime a prominent drug
gist came to the river, placed the body
in a box anu took it to his place of
business. When a representative OF the
undertaking firm of c. n. Watkins, Jr.,
arrived at the wharf. having been sent
there by the Coroner. ne was told that
the body had been removed. It was
soon located, however. and taken in
charge by the undertaken.
Last evening after an investigation
Coroner Schultze ordered the body bur
led, as he found that life had never ex-
listed. Where the body came from and
who placed it in the sewer and its par
ents will probably always remain a
mystery. 1t Is supposed that the heavy
rain of Tuesday night and Wednesday
morning washed 1t out.
