The HonOrs Paid TO an Alien citizen
by Her People.
To the sight Of the world Franklin
came as the agent of certain revolted
colonies Of England to seek material
aid to sustain the hard pushed rebel
lion, but TO the enlightened eye Of his
tory he is an envoy from the new world
to the old, addressing to its half awall-
sned heart and conscience the soul
stirring invitation to be free. No filter
choice was ever made by any nation In
any age. There was too heavy a sea
running to have any incompetence on
the quarter deck.
An interest which we can scarcely
comprehend was taken in that day in
natural science. Franklin was by uni
versal consent the greatest natural
philosopher Of his time He was hailed
as the confdant Of nature, the play
mate Of lightning Prometheus un-
punished The brightest constructive
and critical energies Of the best minds
were devoted to the solution Of politi-
cal problems, and here. they said, was
man who had founded many states up
on the principles Of abstract justice
and had consolidated them at last
into a superb model republic. for this
hasty generalization had seized the for
eign mind, always too apt to regard
leaders instead OF masses, and It was
long before the millions Of Americans
got their due abroad
Thus 1t came that the great heart OF
liberal France went out at once in a
quick rush Of welcome to Franklin. He
was the point that attracted the over
charged electricity Of that vast and
stormy mass Of active thought. He be-
came the talk OF the town. They made
songs about him. They published more
than $50 engravings Of him. so that his
fur cap and spectacles became as IA
miliar as the face Of the king on the
louis dor. The pit rose when he en-
tered a theater. These are not trivial
details. Those spontaneous honors paid
to an alien citizen by a people so long
the victims Of degrading tutelage show
ed the progress they had made toward
liberty. In honoring him they honored
themselves. They vaguely felt he was
fighting their battle. They read in his
serene and noble countenance the
promise Of better times.-John Hays

noise in front did so. Then there was
a loud, angry growl, as Of a dozen

Some Lively Bouts nt the Casino Last
Night.
Local sports got all they we're look
ing for at the boxing bouts Of the
National Sporting Club, at the
Casino, at kiftieth and Market
streets, last evening. There we're four
coed preliminaries and a hot six
round windup between Dave Holly
aud Fred Blackburn, both Of Phila.
delphia. Much interest was conferred
ia the bout between Holly and Black
burn, as both oolored pugilists have
good populations for boxing. The bout
was disappointment to many who did
not like hOlly's manner of fighting
and thought he showed too much
caution. Those who we're CLOSE enough
to appreciate the contest properly,
however, declare that Holly put un
one Of the Rreatest exhibitions Of in
fighting that has ever been witnessed
in the arsna. He fought in a crouch
ing attitude and kept his face well
guarded all the time, but in rapid
transformation tactics he would land
repeatedly upon Blackburn's body and
face, especially the nose. Blackburn.
smarting under these repeated punches
90 the nose, tried his best to land
knockout punch on Holly. Twice he
was almost successful aud il looked as
II Holly was all in. This state of
affairs did not last long, for Holly
rallied and resumed his oTouching and
his telling mitigating. Blackburn
was slowly wearing out and several
times his face wore a weary expression.
His brother, Jack Blackburn, who was
in the corner with him, kept cheering
him on and roofing for him. 1t was
a good bout.
In the semi-windup Billy Walton of
chicago gave an exhibition OF the
tactics Of the "Wndy City" fighters
IN a six-round so with Butch Lincoln
The bout was a draw, but Walton was
by far the fresher at tho end Of the
mill.
Johnny Earle OF Philadelphia, though
he lacks experience, put up SIX GOOD
rounds against Jack Murphy, the clever
Philadelphia boxer. Murphy tried hard
TO knock his opponent out, but Earle
could not see it that way.
The bout between Rex Cain Of
Mnrshallton, and Kid Ford Of Phila-
dolphin was stopped in the fifth round
because Referee Bailey feared that
Ford might iniure his health. The
latter was very tired, but put up a
good fight.
Young Russell Of New Castle bested
KID bTlce Of Wilmington in three
rounds. There was good attendance.
