JOHN I. TO GO ABROAD.
VIII Take on Jem Mace as a Spar
ring Partner ia England,


Having exhibited his prowess az a mon
.Ologist and giver of wholesale advice from
one end Of this country to the other. and
in practically every city between the two
oceans, John L. Sullivan has decided to go
abroad and fight the demon rum in the
country where fighters train on the demon
disguised as ale and beer. In other
words. the weighty ey-champion is booked
10 spend next season in England.
Preparations for this trip have been
quietly progressing for the past two years.
lie has been craftly advertised IN all the
English towns and his name brought be-
fore the public SO thoroughly that there
Is quite. a Sullivan boom IN progress
among the fellow-subjects OF Charley
Mitchell. Sullivan will remain with the
show with which he is appearing at the
Gayety in Washington this week until
April i, and three days later will sail IN
company with Manager Frank Hall and
Jake Kilrain. When he is safe across 1t
IS planned 10 get Jem Mace as a sparring
partner, and have Mace and Sullivan
show the British how the famous battle
was fought three decades ago under the
London prize ring rules. Mace, who is
now seventy-thTee years of age. but is
still teaching boxing for living, retains
his popularity in England something like
Sullivan does in America. and they should
make a strong combination.
Kid Cutler. Sullivan's extra sparrYng
partner this week. is also a wrestler. He
IS meeting ali corners, offering a dollar
for every minute they stay, and $25 if they
remain fifteen minutes. Cutler had no
trouble throwing three men last NUight
The first was Louis Zerega. who was
downed in four minutes: Joe Zerega, who
got his in foTty-one seconds. and Bobby
Baker, who is, like Cutler both a boxer
and wrestler lasted three minutes.

NO MORE TOWELS.
City Officers Decide This Is an Expen-
siye Luxury.

The city is going to wipe the towels
that it uses out of existence. The claims
and accounts committee of the councli
juggled with the above joke and at last
decided that the towels furnished by
local towel supply company were TOO
expensive a luxury. whats that Dill!
said Mayor Green, peering over MS eye
glasses and looking askance at Dill OF
paper which he was holding in his hano.
For towels laconically responded z:
B. Burge, city clerk. "They charge u
per month for the towels that are used
and then make an additional charge OF
20 cents for washinging." wen, l
guess we had better do away with tnoSe
towels" remarked the mayor. The mem
bers of the committee chimed in with
the mayor. But the bill went through
with the committee o. K.
Ben Judkins and A. l.. Saul, members
of the city's plainclotheS force, VINO put
in claims for 500 each for back saiar-
les claimed as due them, had the claims
Judkins and Saul were appointed by the
mayor as plainsclothes men on the po-
lice force on June 90 but later the chIeI
of police reduced their salaries to sou
per month when the salary OF PLAIN
clothes men is SIS per month. Both OF
the men protested and put in a claim
of SIS a month extra for the months OF
May, June, July, and August. AS the
salary of the men is fixed by ordnance
at SIS, the mayor decided that some
back wages was due and the claims ana
accounts committee allowed the men al
the rate of $25 per month for the months
of June, July and August dating from
their appointment on June 20.
