Burns Is Scheduled To
 Fight Roche March "

London, March 13.-The fight betweeen Tommy Burns, the American heavy weight fighter and Jem Roche of Dublin will take place at Dublin March IT, unless Burns injured eye becomes so bad that it would prove a serious handicap.
 Burns wrote the Dublin promoters of the fight. asking them if they would con- slider a postponement on account of his injury. As yet they have not replied, but in interviews they have declared themselves as against a change of date, saying that the house is sold out, and that there would be difficulty in getting together at another time such big crowd of spectators. The fight, therefore will take place as scheduled unless Burns eyes grow worse. The injury was at first considered slight, but it grew more se- rious, and the eye was completely closed

 The National Sporting club has received a letter from the manager of Jack" Johnson the American negro fighter, ask ing whether the club could arrange a fight between Johnson and Burns on the same terms that recently were offered by MT. Kelly, and declaring that the National Sporting club is the only place in Eng land where Johnson will fight. The sec retary of the club replied that the or ganization was unable to offer such lib- eral terms as had been given by MT. Kelly which included $5000 for Johnson, win, lose or draw.
 Burns now says that he is willing to wait until he returns to the United States ! to meet Johnson.

Loud answers our kith and kin;
From west and east to tho rimson

'The clan came trooping in.
O'er joint and gristle and padded hoof
We fought and clawed and tore,
And cheek by jowl, with many a grow]
We talked the marvel DER,
l carved that fight on a reindeer bone
with rude and hairy hand,
pictured his fall on the cavern wall
That men might understand.
For we lived by blood, and the riyat
of might,
Ere human laws were drawn,
And the age Of sin did not begin
Till our brutal tusks were gone.
ana that was a million years ago,
In time that no man knows;
Yet here tonight in the mellow lignt
We sit ut Delmonico's.
Your eyes are deep as the Devon
springs,
Your hair is as dark as jet;
Your years are few, your life is new,
Your soul untried, and vet
Our trial is on the Kimmcridye clav.
And the scarp Of The Purbeck fla"s,
We have left our bones in the Baw
shot stones,
And deep in the Coralinc crags,
Onr love is old, our lives are old,
And death shall come amain.
Should it come today, what man nav

We shall not live again9
God wrought our souls from the Trc-

And furnished them wings to fIv:

And know that il shall not die.
