IRISH PATRIOT TALKS OF PEACE
Michael Davitt Discusses Prospects In

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April 12.-Michael

Irish politics, says that Joseph Cham

Chamberlain is the absence of a dip
lomat. Mr.. Davitt said:
He saw defeat staring him in the
face, and he left. He is not i'll; his
mind is not affected. He knew he was
beaten and he left.
Mr.. Chamberlain based his hope of
success on the depression which he
expected to prevail in England. But
the depression did not come.
TT is practically certain that Ire
land will have home rule before many
years. The present land laws have
done much to encourage the people Of
both Ireland and England.
The officials have seen that the peo-
pie of Ireland have the ability to rule
themselves and will hail the next move
with joy. l believe the liberals and
the tories will get together and present
home rule to the Irish people, and
when they do Ireland will be one of
the most prosperous countries in Eu-
rope.
Il consider the present king the
greatest diplomat in Europe. You no.
ticed how he crossed to France and
made the people of that country his
friends? Well, at present he is at
tempting to find some means of re-
storing peace in the far east.

WHEN SULLIVAN LOST OUT
Scene In the Ring When Old "Champ'
Was Beaten Down.

John L. Sullivan was a great fighter.
For more than ten years he held the
title and never shirked a fight He be-
gan his career in 1880, and it was Sep
out by Jim Corbett. A description Of
what occurred in the ring directly af
ter that memorable fight follows:
When the ten seconds were at last
at an end. Prof. Mike Donovan. of the
New York Athletic club, and w. A.
Brady. COrbett's manager. sprang to
the stage and flung their arms around
the young man who was now the
champion pugilist of the world and the
winner OF $4,000 in purse and stake
as we'll as 1 reputation that will turn
perhaps ten times that amount into
his exchequer. Corbett returned their
salute with a hearty embrace, while the
tears welled up into his eyes. Others
jumped up to the clever pugilist and
Rugged him.
Try to Revive Sullivan.
While this hugging was going on
Sullivan's handlers were pouring
water over him and placing ammonia
to his nose and with much trouble
brought him around. When he did
come to he looked up at Jack McAu-
~ f1
ell and after opening his eyes half
way, or as far as he could, said in his
deep rumbling voice:
Say, am 1 licked? Did that young
fellow do it?'
McAuliffe sorrowfully admitted that
that was the case John did not say
any more until Corbett came over and
shook hands with him. Then John got
up, took Corbett's hand and spoke to
the crowd:
"Gentlemen," said the champion, II
am only glad that the championship
has been won by an American
House Cheers "Champ."
The speech brought down the house.
Blood covered Sullivan everywhere
and he was a dire picture of the fall
of the great.
While the referee had been counting
the fatal seconds, Sullivan moved,
rolled over and got on one knee and
both hands and essayed to rise, while
Corbett advanced to punch him more
should he succeed. But it was useless.
The great hulk Of what had been
champion reeled and again went down.
and the ten and OUT of the referee
told that the battle was over A more
pitiable sight than was the ex-cham-
pion has seldom been seen in the prize
ring.

The theatrical season in Clarksburg
formally closed at the Traders Grand
opera house Wednesday night with the
excellent production of "The Mummy
and the Humming Bird" in which the
popular favorite Paul Gilmore plays the
stellar role. The play was intensely
enjoyed by the audience which assem-
bled 10 witness ii and it was so well
appreciated that Mr.. Gilmore was com
PEELED to respond 10 many encores and
several curtain calls. At the close of
act three such an ovation was tender
ed the eminent actor in applause that
after responding TO half dozen cur
tain calls he acknowledged the reeep-
tion rendered him in a neat little speech
in watch he said he was truly grateful
for the active stimulant given himself
and his company in applause and said
that the apprecativeness of the audi
enee impelled himself and company to
their very best efforts. He said he had
a warm feeling for Clarksburg because
Of the appreciation of his efforts at his
appearance here last season in THE,
Tyranny Of Tears and in the present
play and hoped it would be his pleasure
to come to Clark-burg again
In "The Mummy and the Humming
Bird" Mr. Gilmore brings out his ex.
eellent abilities as an actor. The role
he plays is forceful one with grim
dry humor, dignity, and peculiar in
dividuality, which he brings out in an
artistic manner.
Margaret Drew as Lady Lumley was
fine. She portrays her character with
high ability and sincerity Of expression.
The entire company supporting Mr..
Gilmore is strong and well balanced
John Martin as Giuseppe impersonated
an Italian in realistic manner and
his efforts were satisfying aud pleasing.
The elaborate scenery and staging ap.
paratus carried with the piece was beau.
tiful, in keeping with the dignity OF
the characters and the costumes were
magnificent and appropriate with the
surroundings.
Mr.. Gilmore made decided hit in
this city and it is the hope and wish OF
every theatre gocr that ne will return
to Clarksburg next year if he can e.
cape the demands OF the big theatrical
managers of the larger cities.
