BADGER FIGHT AT
 DOUGLAS FIERCE OHE

DOUGLAS, Sept. 29.-(Special.)-
 The cruel and inhuman ,,sport" of Yadger fighting was revived in Doug las last night and that too right Tn the shadow of the city hail, in fact in the very yard between the hali and the city jail. Right there and at the very portals Of the court there were hundreds of dollars wagered by he excited sports who gathered to see the encounter between dog ana badger. in the selection of orficials lngry voices were raised in protest t this man or that one and even the question of which dog should engage T the encounter was bitterly deDat- d.
 At length Billy Woods and George Valentine were agreed upon as refer. ees, John Igo guard of the door to the badger cage, Lou Johnson Jo hold the dog and william Huggart, traveller who has covered the whole territory of this country and yet who had never seen a badger tlght was deputed to pull the badger from its den. It had been first ascertained that none of these sports had any money wagered on the result. This preliminary arranged the crowd look ed the dog over and here came a surprise which changed the letting odds quickly for 1t was seen the am nal was little more than a puppy but eight months old though practic ally full grown. notwithstanding the change in the current of betting the pup proved a true game pit bul terrier and worthy of it's antagonist
 Huggart was given his station up on saw horse to raise him beyond danger of attack from the vicious nt tie beast be was to draw from it; lair and was given definite instruc | tions as to how to pull the rope s' as to give advantage to neither 0 the combatants. A short, sharp vic ious yank at the rope threw the poo badger almost into the crowd and be fore any one realized 1t the battl was over and the defeated and bal tered badger escaped into the alley
 Huggart was disgusted at the end lie declared he never would hay consented to play a part in such a exhibition mad he had any idea Q the outcome or of what was to be e, peeted rom such an encounter.

BANQUET HONOR IF ASSIGNING PRESIDENT

DOUGLAS, Sept. 29.-(Special)-
 After the regular meeting of the volunteer nremens assocIaulon iasI evening the members and their guests sat down to banquet in hon Or of the oeparting president of the organization, George " Hill. who 4 leaving Douglas to go to California The table was spread in the court room and a dainty supper was serv- ed.
 At the end of the first course $. G. Dowell rose as toastmaster and call ed for the first speaker of the even ing, Chief Nemeck, who replied in a snort but graceful speech euIogistic of the retiring president. Next for mer chief Kirkland was called upon and he told of how he had always found George Hill one of the f1rst on the scene of danger, one of the trst to volunteer to go into peril and ot how he had at one time studied er- zines and engine machinery in order that he might volunteer to serve as engineer in the absence Of the regu' lar paid engineer, temporarily. From this the former chief drew a lesson for the other members of the depart ment.
 Just at this point came an inter raption which showed how quick are the Douglas fire Iaddies to respond to duty's call for false alarm wa: turned in and in ten seconds the ban quet board was entirely deserted | and the department on their way tc the supposed scene of the fire. Upon the return of the department to the engine house the banquet was resumed and responses were made to toasts by Aloysius Coll for the press in what was undoubtedly the speech of the evening. Cohn Harvey for the department, Harvey Johnson the new president, J. H. Gray Tor tne Douglas public and farewell speect by Mir Hill.
 Meantime it had been learned tha the alarm Of fire had eminated orig finally from George Campbell, wnC had called up one of the Aldermen and persuaded him to phone in tht alarm. The result was kangaroo court with John Igo as judge, AEoyis jus Coll and John C. Mcintosh as at torneys to defend the prisoner, ant J. H. Gray as prosecuting attorne! and Chief Nemeck as complainant The case was bitterly fought by op posing counsel and resulted in ind ing the defendant guilty. sentencin; him to pay fine of S19,Oo0, and per hitting him to go upon his own rec ognizanee pending the payment Q the fine.
 During the tntermissions the San don orchestra discoursed popular mu sic and Iivened the occasion.
 The keynote of the evening wa regret at the departure of Presiden Hill. but congratulations for hin since he was to better his conditio in financial and business ways.

 A matchmaker who has worked at the bench for over quarter of cen tury gave this advice to watch owne:S who may accidentally get water i7ta their watches:
 Do not open you watch until yon secure some sort of dish into which to place 1t, and also enough kerosene to cover it all over; any old tin can will do. Open your watch case. both front aud back covers, and carefully move it around in the kerosene until you have filled it with oil. Allow it to remain in the kerosene until you can have it cleaned. It will come out of the oil without any of the parts rusting. thus saving much expense and the watch.-Popular Science

 A work on heraldry, by Paul Gruen- del, recently published at Leipsie. con tains some information on the sub feet of sealing wax and the rules gov erning it's use in the days of old. White wax was for the kings O. France, and later for the kings of Sici- Iy. A few dukes were allowed the high privilege, through the generos- Ity of Frederick III. Red wax was for the pope and the German monarchs. but, as mark of favor to the people, 1t was allowed to be used generally. Green wax was for the common peo- pie, and some cities which had been -unfzithful to their government were compelled ever sfterwsrd. as a marh of their shame. to seal all public doc uments with green wax"

JOHNSON TRAINS
FOR KETCHEL GO
Interest in Contest Picking Up
as Real Fight Seems
Assured.

All reports from Jack JOEnson's train
ing quarters at San Francisco go to show
that the black is making a pretty fair
effort to get in shape for Ketchel. Since
ne met Tommy Burns, Jackson has never
worked hard in training His work for
the Kaufman fight was joke.
At first Johnson gave out that Ketchel
would be cinch and that ten rounds
would be plenty to settle the middleWeight
with. Now, however. every interview he
gives contains a line or two about Ketch-
els youth, strength and punishment-tak-
ing ability.
Johnson is wise enough to know that
he has got to win to have the chance at
the bag of gold at the end of the Jeffries
rainbow. He also has a very sensible
desire 10 hang On to the 5000 side bet he
has posted and to annex the similar
amount posted by Ketchel. Despite the
early assertions Of a SPEEDY knockout, it
now looks as if the same old safe" game
will be used by the black
The wise ones also say that even if he
could. Johnson would not knock KetChel
out in the early stages Of the fight or at
all. The reason is that three to one
against Jeffries looks much better than
even odds when it comes to betting on
the big fight.
After a quite noticeable slump in the
interest about the fight, the coast fans
are beginning TO take notice again. The
selection of Jack Welsh as referee has
also helped things along.
Another line of dope advanced to sup
port the view that Johnson does not
think ketchel an easy mark comes from
JOhnsOn's refusal to consent TO the adj
vance in the date TO POrtOla week. 1t is
said on the coast that the champion had
afraid the longer training period might
work in favor of kptClpl

caused by the injury to Barry in the
