MOST PERFECT SPECIMEN
OF MASTADON IN WORLD
Wonderful Find i'm Yukon Territory
Being Handled With Care BY the
Three Lucky Norwegians.

uncovering the carcass has pro-
gressed sufficiently to reveal all Of
the head and the neck back to the
breast. The tusks have also been
uncovered. They are II feet in
length and perfectly preserved.
The outer ends of the tusks rest on
bedrock.
There is widespread sentiment
at Dawson that the work of un-
earthing the prehistoric monster
should be discontinued until the
find is officially reported to the
American or English government
authorities. 1t is believed either
the Smithsonian institute or the
London museum would gladly
avail itself Of an opportunity, to
acquire title to the carcass, which
is by far the most perfect ever
found in the world. One other al
most wholly complete mastadon
was found in Siberia and an enor-
nous sum expended in exhuming
the carcass, which is now at the
London school of science. The
KIondike mastadon is a monster,
the skull measuring 80 inches
across.

Advices received in this city
from Dawson give further details
of the discovery of the perfect
mastadon found recently on
Quartz creek. According to these
advices, the mastadon is the most
complete specimen of its kind ever
found, and the utmost care is be-
ing exercised to keep it intact
while the work Of unearthing the
monster is carried on.
The monster was discovered on
No. 5 claim below Mack's discov-
cry on Quartz creek by three Nor
wegian prospectors, who were
working the claim on a lay. APP
preciating the value of their diss-
covery, the three Norwegians are
carefully thawing the ground
around the carcass with warm
water. Ordinarily steam points
would be employed to thaw the
ground but the Norwegians feared
they might in this manner pune
ture the skin of the animal, which,
so far as has been uncovered, is
said to be whole and in an excel
lent state of preservation, being
thick and tough. The work Of

ROCKVILLE A HUMMER.

Northampton, Aug 31-Rockville checked the victorious Northampton team yesterday and scored a shutout ill an errorless game. Score to 0.
 Noriarty allowed Northampton but five safeties, one of these being a two bagger. This is the principal reason for the defeat of the home team.
 When hits were needed Northampton was unable to get them. On the oth- CT hand NIaroney was wild, giving seven passes to first by the four ball ticket These gifts proved very cost ly and three of the four runs were started in this way. The game was a remarkable one from the fact that neither team was charged with a mis- play. Quick work on the part of Devlin and Goode saved them from being charged with misplays. They had q number of chances where they juggled the ball, but recovered in time to get the leather to the base in time.
 Daley and Devlin were the only members of the local team that came anywhere near the mark in hitting. They secured to hits each. In field ing Goode, Murphy, Pieper and Daley did best for Northampton, throw by Daley from center in the fourth doubling up Stafford who was playing off first, was feature For Rock vile the features in fielding were contributed by Graham, Gilmartin, Bowling and Nichols, while Stafford and Scanlon were the strongest with the stick.

Butchers Union Will Continue the
 Struggle at Chicago.
 CHICAGO, Aug. 3L-The national executive board of the butcher work men has voted not to call off the strike. Instead the struggle is to be continued until the strikers are accorded an honorable adjustment" according to a statement issued by President Don- nelly.
 After conference with members of the executive committee of the strik- ers' national organization President Donnelly refused to divulge what had taken place. He admitted that means of securing money for the strikers had been discussed, but he refused to say what else had been talked of at the conference President Donnelly said that general mass meeting would be held by the striking unions today at 2 D. m. at Watita hall, near the stock yards. Plans of action will then be discussed.

RAsE BALL NOTES.

Although it has been said that O'Rourke doesn't want the pennanr, the most Tesourceful citizen is unable to explain why.h spent money in get ting Waller.
 A report has been circulated that fight among the players has disorgan- ized the Phillies. It is hard to believe that there is enough life in the club to stir up a scrap. v
 New Haven spoiled it's chances for the pennant Monday by losing to Hartford. The Ponies have now trot- ted into first place and it will be d difficult task to drive them out
 The remarkable speed of MT Bay of the Cleveland Americans is due to the fact he is an actor in the off seasons and keeps himself in training chasing freight trains.- Philadelphia North American.
 Carr. who was traded by Detroit to Cleveland, is shining as a stick artist. Friday he made five hits in five times up and one of them was q triple. Even then Cleveland only beat Washington 1 to o and it took twelve innings to turn the trick.
 Reyes played the hide-the-balI trick on Paddy O'Connor while Joe Connor
 
 was completely shocked when Reyes whipped the ball out and put it on him when Paddy walked off the base after making three-base hit.
 Fosters batting average is nursed by the Bridgeport scorers, It's well enough to encourage q batsman, but the only honorable way is to score in common sense way. Unless it is a put-out, every time Foster hits the ball he is almost sure to be credited with q hit.
 Watch the finishes of the American, Eastern and Connecticut leagues. In each of these leagues at least three teams have a chance to land the flag. Baltimore is now leading the Eastern. with Buffalo just behind and neither Jersey City nor Newark are wholly out of the race.
 | Pop Foster still leads the state hit | ters, but his percentage has suffered something of drop during the past week, during which time he was able to connect safely but three times. His average is 356. Batch and Crolius are tied for second place with 1883. Roy Clark with .317, Joe Connor with 1 .311 and Mclaughlin with just 300 are the other members of this eXclu. | sive few.
 The Hartford management used Pitcher Coughlin against New Haven ! yesterday because the New Haven newspapers claimed that the Nutmeg gers were laying down to Bridgeport by selecting Coughlin as pitcher re gently. Of course, Coughlin won the game New Haven made so much dis. glsting advance talk about, and yes ] terday Coughlin showed New Haven that he isn't 2 helrARr for any team but Hartford

CORBETT IN TRAINING.

Young Oorbett is already beginning to condition himself for his fight with Jimmy Britt in San Francisco. He wants to regain the championship so badly that he would do a years hard labor If necessary and consider the time well spent He is confident that he can whip Britt decisively, and when the case of McGovern is put to him he argues this way: stMcGovern was knocked out and beaten beyond ques- tiOn The knockout is the one and only legitimate reason for the passing of a championship. If Britt had knocked me out there wouldn't be a man in America who would doubt his right to the title. Even McGovern's $ friends admitted that I was the bona f1de champion after that night at Hartford. Now, I have no reason to fear Britt. Having fought him to q standstill and more than held my own I will not go into the ring handicapped by the recollection of n previous beat ing. There is no question but that a knockout worries a man greatly in a second meeting When your opponent has demonstrated that he has the punch which puts you to sleep you are leary of every lead. The certainty that he can put you down for the count makes you glove-shy. and you stall ill stead of going in and mixing. Now, know that I am better than Britt and when I fight him again there will be no hesitation, but rather increased confidence, because feel that he can't hurt me"

AMATEUR NOTES.

Where do you suppose the Brooklyn rooters will be when the Me1Timacs get into the game again? On. the Merrimacs' side? Well, not if you should notice 1t.
 The Merrimacs will have a hard row to hoe to win the next two games. They will be pitted against the St Jo- sephs and the Pastimes and either team has good chance to win.
 The Pastime team as at present constituted is one of the fastest in the bunch and had this team been to- gether in the earlier games there might have been another team fight ing for that pennant.
 A tie between the Brooklyns and the MerIdmacs would draw out one of the biggest crowds that ever at tended game in this city. But tne managers of the St Josephs and the Pastimes say there will be no tie.
 The game Sunday between the St Josephs and the Hills will be interest ing from the fact that if Moran pitch es for the St Josephs he nas agreed to shut the Hills out without a run, and if Tom Byrnes does the twirling he has virtually agreed to do the same thing. s'-.'

THE PUGIL.ISTS.
BIG FELLOWS
 NOT WANTED.
Philadelphia Clubs will Bar the Heavyweights-COr- bett Preparing for Britt No Negro for Teffries.

Phi adelphis, Aug 31!--The order issued by Director of Public Safety Smyth, acting under instructions from Mayor Weaver, prohibiting the holding of the contest between James J. Corbett and Jack O'Brien, probab- ly means the end of boxing between heayyweights in Philadelphia.
 The Tuxedo Athletic club will make no further move. President Harry Edwards said yesterday the club would not invoke the aid of the courts to enjoin Director Smyth, as did the promoters of the Fitzsimmons contest. The club has several inn portant battles arranged between champions of smaller classes and fears that by the applying for an in- junction 1t will have it's program spoiled.
 Jack O'Brien visited the City hall yesterday afternoon and went at once to the office of Director Smyth, who is friend of his. He demanded to know why such an order had been is sued and was told in frank language that the bout could not take place.
 sThat is all there is to it." the di- rector said.
 Frankie Neil, bantam weight cham pIon, ana Tommy Murphy of New York will meet in a six-round bout tonight and no effort will be made to stop them.
 It is the opinion of local sporting men that the promoters should let well enough alone and go ahead pull ing off fights between little men, who do not attract SO much attention as the heavyweights.
 The several clubs now running here are in favor of giving up all efforts to arrange battles between the bigger men. The Corbett- OBrien fight, so far as Philadelphia is concerned is off the list.

THE DIAMOND.
h'ANDREWS LOST GAME
His Errors Allowed Bridge. port to Beat .HOlyoke in the Ninth - Springfield Broke Even.

Bridgeport, Aug 31.-Bridgeport Squeezed in ahead of Holyoke yester-
 day, to 2, but delayed the ceremony until the ninth inning, when the Champs looked strong, having gained Ia lead of one run in the first half of the last turn.
 Both pitchers were effective, the |steadiness of Newman being helpful
 on many boggy spots oyer which the locals travelled safely. Hodges was unable to control his curve ball with Acustomary skill, but he worked clev- Aerly throughout and wasn't distanced lin the display by Newman.
 After Holyoke had batted in run
 lin the ninth, the score then being to
 in its favor, the visiting team had Ito give up two runs and the game.
 McAndrews fumbled Dowhey's s Aground hit. Reyes bunted in an at ltempt to sacrifice, but Hodges fielded
 the ball sharply and sent the leather Ito McAndrews for q force out of Downey, Nbut for the second time i'll the same inning on the same player,
 the Holyoke shortstop failed. Downey
 was caught at third on q grounder by Newman. Clark walked on balls land then Foster banged in the win ming runs with a jolt to right field.
 The score:
