Peter Maher came up little wob-
bly,. still putting hard. but with a
CLEAN of determination IN his eye.
And before the bell had stopped
vibrating Joe was prancing lightly
across the ring to get at him. Joe
was taking the good advice. He
was gong to mix and finish it,
Peter jabbed hard one over to
Joe's nose and Choynski went diving
into him with both hands going
like piston rods.
Now at long range ChoynsN was
winner. but at mixing Maher was
master. He landed teri fic blows.
Under their impact Choynski began
to waver, to weaken. Bat he had
that mixing idea in his head and he
stood in close and traded blow for
blow Maher began to reel side
wise. AS he staggered, dazed and
all but ill., he brought an uppercut
clear from his knee. The glove
struck with thud under Choynski's
chin. Down went Joe as if he had
been shot. Maher dropped bis hands

few seconds more. Rising. he reeled
aside. and Maher who had a finish
ing punch as long as he was on
his feet, stepped unsteadily in the

upward to Joes chin. The fight
ended right there.

Shuqrue Boosted.

The Associated Press carried a
fourline story of a fight in New
York short time ago that boosted
the stock of a young Gotham light
weight. The fighter referred to
is Young Shugrue, and his victory
over Johnny Dundee, who he shad-
ed in a ten-round go, placed him on
the par with the top notchers.
Shugrue has been doing good
work lately. Only short time ago
he made Moran, the English light
weight, quit after pummeling him
around the ring.
Dundee is rightly placed in the
first division of the country best
lightweights, and his defeat by Snug
rue means a lot.
Matty Forsythe, the we'll known
manager, recently stated that Shug-
rue was wonderful fighter and
would make name for himself
before another year.
He is matched with Jack Britton
for ten-round nodecision go in
the near future in New York.

diamond claim at Droogeveld, on
the Vaal river, in South Africa, &C

The boss came. and the kaffir
showed him a huge diamond of 1881
carats, or nearly the size of the
Koh.i-noor.
This was in October last, and on
the very day when Mr.. Bowker and
his partner had decided to abandon
the claim, which had produced only
few small stones. Needless to say,
they did not leave, and few days
later they hit upon another diamond
even larger than the first 1t was
1861 carats, and sold in the rough

makes a fortune out of an aban-
doned or almost abandoned claim.

cERMANY'S "CLAIMS"
on THE UNITED STATES.


The wise advice Of President VIII
(: son to the people of the United States
to refrain from showing any undue
enthusiasm for either of the nations
now engaged in this most fearful OF
all wars, should be needed. Of course
| in a polyglot country, made up
peoples of all chimes, sympathy Is
divided, some desiring victory to
perch upon the banner Of this and
others upon that nation. While al
lowing this, there is no need Of hilar-
ious demonstration, but each citizen
OF the country can entertain his opin-
ions without making himself often
sive to his neighbors or associates
who have the right t. entertain :5lt Their ne5
cwn opinions.
English and Teutonic blood flows
in the veins of many of US, and, rep
resentatives of the warning countries
ever since hostilities commenced Have
endeavored to stir up sentiment IN
the United States for their respec-
tive favorites. German writers have
been especially busy in this connec-
ton, as have also Teuton officials. II
will be remembered that nearly ali
residents of the United States who
were caught in Germany at the out
break of the war after their return
spoke of the courteous treatment
they received from the Kaiser's peo-
Pile.
All this was doubtless true, but
some of the well-wishers of the
Fatherland place themselves IN ludl-
crcus positions when they tell US
Germany or what was then known as
Prussia, was the first European ma

nations of the world.

ward Germany, this assertion should
be explained more fully. After Ger
many had hired Hessians to Great
Britain who were to aid in crushing

many were citizens Of the United

OLD VIRGINIA
STANDS PAT.

While democrats in some OF the
states of the union yesterday allowed
the fruits of their great victory two
wears ago to slip from their grasp
Virginia remained as true to her pol
itical principles as ever, and returned
nine out of the ten representatives to
CONGRESS as she has done for many
years. Democracy, to the majority OF
the voters of the Old Dominion, is as
the laws of the Modes and Perslans.
It is unfortunate that one OF the
Congressman from the state Is COM
pelled to find associates other IMAM
those of his own heath when ne So
iourns in Washington. But the peo-
nile of the Ninth district will have 1t !
this way, Notwithstanding the re-
heated efforts Of the people OF the
state to induce them cast their lot
with the great majority.
While the south remains solid and
holds firmly to her cherished con-
victions, the fact is apparent that
there is fickleness in other sections
of the country. 1t seems that some
cannot be counted upon III natlonat
politics. After struggling for about
twenty wears to set aside the repuDll-
can majority in Congress, the south
with the aid of democrats OF other
sections, succeeded in bringing about
changed conditions in 1873. when
democratic majority appeared IN the
House of Representatives. Theft
tenure was limited however, and al
though the south remained as hrm
as Gibraltar. republican Congress
subsequently followed. After having
been swindled out of the Presidency
when Rutherford B. Hayes was folSt-
ed upon the>country and waiting I'M
til the term of Chester A Arthur hsa
expired, the democrats elected Grover
Cleveland President, but the same
seasaw procedures continued, and ne
was defeated by Benjamin HARRISON
the, republican candidate. four years
later.

ago. when the party swept tHe
