THEY KNEW HIM.

A certain young preacher went down
from Princeton to Philadelphia to
preach. He was one of those extreme
ly howery preachers who sometimes daz-
zle rhetorically the congregation, and
the elders of the church were beseiged
to have him down again. They at length
consented; but the secretary had forgot
ten his name, and he wrote to one of
the seminary professors, saying: "Please
send us that howeret streamlet, rivulet

Sabbath. We have forgotten his name,
but we have no doubt you will be able

One Hundred and Seventy Persons
Perished In Opera House Fire.

One Hundred and Seventy Persons
Perished In Opera House Fire.
Boyerstown. Pa-One hundred and
seventy persons perished In the
Rhoades opera house fire Monday
night. according to figures compiled
by Coroner Strasser. The list Of dead
includes one fireman. who lost his life
fighting the fire. and one man, Jacob
Johnson, who died today from injuries
received iu the blazing playhouse.
Three charred bodies were recovered
from the ruins of the building today
and of the 16S bodies or remains that
lie in the improvised morgues, lis have
been officially or partially identified by
sorrowing relatives or friends.
The private morgues in the town
were not of sufficient size to receive
the bodies of those taken from the fire
ruins and the public school was also
used.
Each bit of jewelry or fragment Of
clothing picked up in the blackened
ruins was tagged, as were the charred
and blackened bodies, or such portion
OF them as remained. and all persons
in search of missing ones were permit
ted to pass through the graesome rows
to made identifications. Some OF the
bodies could not be recognized by the
features alone, as In most cases the
upper portion of the corpses, were
scared or burned to a crisp.
Coroner Strasser tonight established
a bureau of information where he
granted death certificates and signed
insurance papers.
Representatives of scores of insur-
ance companies are in Boyerstown pay
ing off claims as fast as they are pre-
sented
Not more than twenty-five of the en-
tire number of bodies removed from
the fire have heads. There are several
trunks that will probably never be
identified, as there were several stran-
play.
That the victims were not confined
to residents Of Boyerstown was shown
by the number Of unclaimed teams at
the hotels. Fully forty teams remained
uncalled for at the stables yesterday
and the liyerymen said they belonged
to people residing within a radius of
FIVE or six miles of Boyerstown who
drove to this place Monday night with
their families to witness the produc-
ton of the Scottish Reformation"
There is no clue to the identity Of
the owners Of number of the teams
The merry parties of four and six
that drove into Boyerstown with the
teams are believed to be with the un-
identified dead in the various morgues.

MANY OFFERS
FOR FIGHTERS

CHICAGO, October 14.-Since the
Hugo Kelly-Billy Papke battle was
called off in Milwaukee there has
been great demand for the services
of the two crack middle-weight fight
ers. Five fistic organizations, four in
the west and one in the east, have
offered good inducements for the bout.
Jim Jeffries and Tom McCarey proffer-
ed them 60 per cent of the gate re-
ceipts; James Coffroth, 65, and H. La
Carl 70, to hold the fight on the coast,
while H. White of New York promised
the men 80 per cent each if they would
appear before the National Boxing
club.
All of the offers looked very good TO
Kelly and his manager and they an
swered that they would fight if Papke
could be persuaded to accept. The lat
ter declined them all. The only way
he would consent to fight was by get
ting a bonus of $1,000, which Ferretti
refused to give him anywhere else out
side of Milwaukee. His reason for
this is that he was not certain of the
amount the men would draw on the
coast, but knew that they would do
exceptionally well in the Cream city,
therefore he agreed to give him bo-
nus of $4,000,
While he did not desire to give Man
ager Jones the bonus he wanted Fer
retti was perfectly willing to give him
a bonus of 10, Is or 20 per cent, ac-
cording to which of the five offers he
accepted. Ferretti declared that he
and his protege would be contented
with so per cent and would allow the
champion to have all over that offered
by the clubs. For instance La Carl

GREAT MUSICAL
PERFORMANCE

The Buchly violin recital, given at
the Bishop Hall, Punahou College, last
night was most successful. In the
first place the class of music which
was presented to the audience was
above that which has been heard at
any performance in which local ar
lists have taken part, and in the sec
ond place the audience was large, APP
preciative and composed of the best
people in the city. A mention too
should be made of the hall, which
seems to be by far the best place in
the entire city for a musical enter
tainment, it's acoustic properties being
close to perfection.
The program was quite a long one
and was received most enthusiastical-
ly. Mr.. Buchly's playing was excel
lent and he showed great Improvement
over the last time that he was heard
in public. The two selections which
seemed to please most were Schu-
mann's "Traumerei' and Brahms
Hungarian Dance" Both were ex-
quisitely rendered. He was accom-
panied by Mrs. l.. Tenney Peck, whose
work on the piano in this city is so
well known that praise is hardly need
ed. 1t would be hard to find bet
ter accompanist anywhere than Mrs.
Peck.
Next to Mr. Buchly Mrs. Mackall
carried off the honors of the evening.
Her voice was in perfect form and it
is acknowledged that each time she
appears in public an Improvement Is
to be noted. In her first selection,
LISTS die Lorelei," the low notes
were of a sweetness which held the
audience in a spell with the melody
such as few operate singers ever at
tain. In the latter part of the pro-
gram she sang Arditti's Bolero, so
magni1cently as to call forth applause
from the audience in a manner which
showed their determination for a fur
them effort. This was responded to i
with Gounod's "Sing, Smile, Slumber'
which was rendered in manner which
surpassed the version given by Ma
dame Arral, when here few weeHs
ago.
Such musical treats as that of last
night will always be well patronized
in this city and are certainly deserving
of the success which attended Mr..
Buchlys recital. The program was

OF that, Ferretti was willing to let
Papke and his managera take 20 per

way they wanted He was willing to
let the same prevail with any of the
other offers.
The five fight promoters who wanted
to obtain the services of the middle
weights wanted to stage the bout the
latter part of this month or the first Of
next. Kelly was more than anxious
that Papke should accept one of those
propositions and did all in his power
to induce the champion to consent.
His efforts were of no avail. When
the bout in Milwaukee was Cancelled
Papke fatty refused, asserting that he
did not wish to participate in a com
bat previous to his meeting with Kat
chel next month. Kelly was much
disappointed over the Milwaukee af-
fair as he was getting himself in great
shape and felt confident that he would
wrest the middle-weight championship
from the Kewanee lad.

let Kelly be idle, as he is now ne
