 Last Night
Especial Dispatch to the Daily Alaskan. l

 Both men were in the pink of condi- tion. Burley was assisted by Mareno, CAssilly and sheilds, while Eagerly, Wyatt and Seeno looked after Millstt. Charley B,yle was time keeper. There were no preliminaries. Frank SlaSin was referee and he said Marquis of Queensbury rules would govern.
 The fighters entered the ring at lO:3O D n and shook hands. They did some gentlemenly sparring and light tapping until the gong sounded.
 The second round was triffie live Her. Some pretty passes were made Both were erect fac d each other in a manner that told we'll with the spec tators.

FOR JAIL
Marshal Johnson G Is Bunch
 of Prisoners

Deputy Marshal H. L. Johnson brought five prisoners from Haines last night for incarceration in the Skagway jail. The prisoners included H. Mcbride, a private of Company B., Third Infantry, who is bound over to await the action of the grand jury at st the next term. He is accused of threatening to kill three Indians, all of whom were also broughtto Skagway to serve time for being drunk and disor- derly.
 Besides Mcbride, the prisoners Mr. Johnson brought up from Haines were George Lilly, to serve 10 days for as sault and battery, and Thomas Howard, Charles Walter and Alonzo Austin, h. dians. all sentenced for being drunk and disorderly, the last namei for 20 days and the other two 10 days each.
The daily Alaskan., 1904-10-01

The third round was a regular whirlwind. Millett fought his man all over the ring, from corner to corner, fast and furiouslY. Science was forgot ten. It was simply slugging. The spectators rose in their seats and ye'- led, while the two men. always at close quarters, because of Millitt's endeavor to rush his opponenti were using short jabs and hooks.
 In the next round Burley was the fresher of the two.
 The rest of the rounds were tiresome repetitions, Millltt rushing from one clinch into another, until the eighth when Millett again attempted to rush things. Burley met him square in the face, tucked Millett's left, and with a right hand hook knocked Millett down and out.
 All things considered it was the best fight ever pulled of in the Yukon.

Curious Custom.

In Friesland, it seems. there is a
custom that the news of a birth or
death is announced verbally by a
man who calls at every house in the
village for that purpose. If he brings
the news of a birth he wears white
gloves, If of a death they are black.
Some days ago child was born dead
in a Friesian village. It was neces-
sary that the usual announcement
should be made, but in what colored
gloves? The harbinger was a man
of resource. He went his rounds
wearing one white glove and one
black one.

vic diseases have no idea that their
trouble is due to catarrh. The majority
of the people think that catarrh is .
disease confined to the head alone.
This is not true. Catarrh is liable to
attack any organ of the body; throat,
bronchial tubes, lungs, stomach, kid
neys and especially the pelvic organs.
Many a woman has made this discov-
cry after long siege of useless treat
ment. She has made the discovery that
her disease is catarrh, and that PerunA
can be relied upon to cure catarrh
wherever located.

HOnorlna the New Arrival.

The birth of a child among the
working class in Cumberland, Eng
hand, has been from time immemorial.
and is still, celebrated by the making
of a mixture called ''rum-butter." Its
ingredients are butter, sugar, rum and
spices, and 1t is a really palatable
compound. Every person entering
the house where a birth has taken
place is offered a taste for several
weeks after the event. 1t is an insult
to the child, and its parents to refuse
the proffered dainty, and not 10 prof
fer it Is considered equally discourte-
GUS.
