FOR DEMOCRATS TO THINK ABOUT

After comparing the returns of the
last three elections for Governor in
New York state, the Sun reaches the
conclusion that the overturn In poli-
tical control of New York on November
8. of this year, was far less Demo-
cratic victory than a Republican de-
feat" This appears to be fair de-
auction from these figures:

PUGILISTS FIGHT TILL BLOOD
MAKES 1T TOO SLIPPERY.

CHICAGO, April 5.-The authorities
at Durham, IL, = village twenty miles
south of Chicago, are looking for the
promoters of a bloody prize-fight which
occurred there at midnight Friday.
The fight was a preliminary of the main
bout, a twenty-round contest between
Dick Fitzpatrick and Danny Goodman.
Fitzpatrick agreed to knock out Good
man inside of twenty rounds or forfeit
the decision. He failed to do so. Both
men were badly battered up at the
conclusion of the fight.
The bloody preliminary was a six
round go between Kid Green and Kid
Black, of Chicago, two negroes. They
fought for a purse of 81 for n round
and then agreed, providing a purse
was forthcoming, to put n or the
other out. Money showered into the
ring, and the negroes fought until it
was too slippery with blood for them
to stand up. Spectators at the ring
side We're splashed with blood. Three
hundred men from Chicago and Ham
mond saw the fight.

smash on one of the big piers Of this

an appeal to the Mexican Consul at
Washington for funds to get the unfor-

Creditors have seized the instru-

debts contracted by the managers Of
the aggregation, and the bandsmen are
thereby deprived of even the opportu-
nifty of working their way back to
Mexico.
The big band was brought here sew

pected crowds. Their board bill alone
had run up to S1.500 when other cred

from a height of eighty feet into the

LEWISTOWN, Pa, April "a large
crowd gathered on the river bridge over
the Juniata river between here and
Lewistown Junction yesterday to wit
ness the launching of the first pleasure
power-boat Sfoated on the headwaters
Of the Juniata.
Isaac Etter, q well-known horseman,
formerly of Harrisburg. had an auto
mobile too much worn for the original
plan and he decided to turn it into a
motorboat and haul passengers up and
down the Juniata. The bed of the ma
chine vas placed on a boat of peculiar
construction, paddles were substituted
for the tires on each of the -four wheels
and a rudder was provided.
No wine vas broken ove the bows,
for in this dry town wine was scarce.
The moment the power was turned
on the BOA moved in a complete and
perfect circle and finally became sub
merged in The river. 1t was anchored
on the bottom while inventor and pro-
motors went home to get a change OF

MAN CHEWED BY BULLDOG
GETS ONE CENT DAMAGES.
Lost Legal Standing by lnvad'
ing Bedroom to Escape.

LOUISVILLE April 5.-After a hard
fought legal battle Ferdinand Rapp, a
collector for a clothing house, was
awarded a verdict of 4 cent and
costs against J..H. Dunlap, whose bull
dog had attacked him. The complaint
was that the Dunlaps kept the bulldog
for the specific purpose of standing be-
tween them and oyer-insistent credi-
tors.
Rapp made a record dash around the
house. with the dog hanging 10 him,
Yelling for help in both German and
English. and finally sought safety in
Mrs. Dunlap's bedroom and was res
cued
The evidence consisted chiefly of a
pair of trousers, which resembled 2
storm flag after a cyclone. and coat
with ire left wing gone.
The co1rt held that if Rapp had
remained in the yard he would have
been well within his rights and en-
titled to recover more than nominal
damages. but when he entered Mrs.
Dunlap's bedroom he was technically a
trespasser and lost his legal standing.
