animal that has been frightening
people around Providence, KY, for
the past several days, has been posi-
lively identified as a Bengal tiger,

1890 to 1900 245

The census for 1910 has been com.
pleted some time ago, but the fig
.ures have not been made public.
Assuming that the rate of increase
has been IS per cent. the highest in
any previous decade. the population
would be little under 10000.
Many people are inclined to over
estimate the population, from the
fact that the city limits do not in
clude at least 5000 people who live
within two miles of the court house.
A so per cent. increase would give
Hopkinsville 1O,92O. Don't expect
the population to exceed 10000.

Night Rider Cases.
The cases against DR.. "A. Amoss,
Guy Dunning. John Robinson, B.
Malone, alias J, B. Malone, Irwin
Glass and Newton Nichols, indicted
on the charge of completely in the
night rider raid On Hopkinsville were
set for Thursday and are to be called
next on the docket,
The defendants were at Hotel
Latham Thursday and yesterday and
were accompanied by a large num-
Der of their witnesses and relatives.
The /. C. train yesterday morning
brought in a big delegation. The
men went to the court house and the
many well dressed women and pref
ty young girls with them spent the
time in shopping.
Some of the defendants are very
prominent and their list of witnesses
comprises representatives from
many of the leading families in their
counties. The large number of wit
nesses indicates that the defense
will most likely be the usual alibis.
Much curiosity was felt as to DR..
D. A. Amoss, the alleged general,
but he keeps himself in his room at
the hotel most of the time. Only
once was he seen on the street and
then he appeared neatly attired in a
dark suit. with black felt hat. He
is low of statue, of medium size,
wears a brown moustache and his
dark hair js slightly tinged with
gray. He is about "a or SO years of
age. The other defendants are seen
frequently on the streets.
These cases will be hard fought
when called for trial. The trial will
undoubtedly attract attention all
over the country.
Change of Venue Asked.
A petition was filed yesterday
morning in the cases of R. H. De
Treville and J. B. Galbreath. under
indictments in connection with the
Acme Mills troubles, asking for a
change of venue to some other coun-
ty in the district.

SAVAGE OUTROxES
YOUNG W|LDFANG
IN FAST BATTLE
Cleverness OF Orange Boy in To-

Boys Do Good Work After
Their Own Style of Milling.

1crcfN frnrn Nntnm Arildfnnn In

NANNI SAVAGE last night won
IL the welterweight title of New
Jersey from Young Wildfang in
one of tho fastest bouts yet witnessed
at the Long Acre Club, of New York.
The Orangeite displayed form that
surprised the fondest expectations of
his followers, in what was considered
the best fight of his career, There were
no knookdowns.
Young Wildfang is a fighter of sterl-
ing qualities. He did his best to put
the clever Savage into the land of
dreams, but the left lab of the latter
often made him look like a novice In
the ten-raund affair. Wildfans Is a
fighter of the first order, but last night
he met 4 boxer who was careful
enough to get out OF the danger zone.
1t was just as was predicted in the
EVENING STAR. Danny was the
winner on points, but ten rounds was
too short IL distance to settle the ques-
ton of supremacy. Wildfang used all
his ability to get over n right swing
that spelled defeat to many a protni-
nent weller, but he met a boy trained
to perfection.
But one round. the fourth, and half
Of the inal session, can be given to
Wildfang. In the fourth he used right
swings hal jolted savage and in his
anxiety to finish the proceedings ae-
cepted some awful left jabs. TO end
hostilities in the tenth he worked to
the limit, but a garrison finish was
made by Savage.
Early in the fight Savage smashed
W%ildfang over the left eye and that
member started to swell. Throughout
the fight savage kept pegging away
at the optic, and it was a sorry sight
when the final session was over.
After a card of preliminaries that
proved stellar attractions, which the
fans did not believe the main bout could
excel, their suppositions were quickly
upset. Wiidfang and savage tore into
each other from the tap Of the gong
and never let up
Perhaps in a longer session Wildfang
would be better able to show his true
worth. but If Savage keeps in the same
condition he was in last night and uses
his right in the ann displayed Clay
ton could not hand out the sleep pill.
The Orangeite paid more attention to
his training than he probably has In
any previous fights.
1t was about the cleanest bout ever
engaged in by either fighter. They
agreed with Referee Joe Hess to break
clean in the clinchcs and separate at
lis command. Not once was the rule
disooeyed. When the crowd was yell
ing loud for a Knockout and excite
ment was intense they we're probably
the coolest in the house. Savage
weighed about 1877 pounds and Wild
fang about $40.
BY his work Savage upset a ring
precedent around New York. When Q
fighter is stacked up against a boxer
the aforementioned generally Ia re-
turned the winner, hut to the credit OF
Savage It can be trrthfully stated that
he combined the qualities of both last
night.
