HAINEs BESTED STINGER.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. l6:-
The Manayunk Athletic Club opened
the season Wednesday night before n
crowd that filled the club to the doors.
The wind-up was between Young
Haines, of Germantown, and Kid
Singer, of Southwark. While the
out went the limit, Haines had all
the best of it, and won hands down.
1t was a case of rough house. The
boys dropped all science aud went at
it for keeps. .Haines used an upper
cut with a left jab that had Singer
guessing. The only round that Sting
had had any show was in the sec
ond, when he started the blood from
Haines's nose. The semi-wind up
was between Griff Jones, of Brooklyn.
and Johnny Dauner, of New York In
the first round Jones made Danner
take the count. In the second Jones
knocked Dauner out by using the old
pivot blow.

SACRAMENTO, June 12.-Hundreds OF
acres of valuable land below F'reeport
have been flooded by a remarkable acci-
dent. Ex-senator Johnston, p. B. Green
and several other wealthy land owners
had formed a new reclamation district
and engaged the big dredger Mogul TO
throw up earth for the enclosing levees-
In. order to move the dredger back into
the Sacramento River il was necessary
to cut space in the river levee- A semi
circular dam was built around the point
and the levee cut. The dam gave way
to-day and the water from the river
rushed through in torrent, flooding the
bean. potato and other crops over a
large area. The dredger was thrown
against the telephone lines, prostrating
them.
A report reached Sacramento tonight
from Freeport that the break, which was
near the Bryan place, was seventy-five
feet wide and the water was coming
through from the river at depth of five
feet.
