Pugilists Participated in
 the Ratification of Politics

Politics is still considered by some to be rather dirty game, but the process of casting a ballot is now a comparatively easy and safe proposi- ton. In the good old days of our great-grandpapas, about a century ago, visiting the polls was rather hazardous thing in many cities of both the United States and Great Britain. Gangs of toughs laid in wait for vot- CTS known to be favora ble to the other side, and often beat them up when they refused to be intimidated.- It is not generally known, however, that pugi1ists assisted. in the purification of politics, and helped to make vot- ing less dangerous to life and limb.
 This phase of the pugiistic sport is recalled by a record of a battle fought near Kingston, England, ninety-seven years ago today, Aug. ', ISIS, be- tween two rising young bruisers, Pe- ter Crawley and Ben Sutcliffe This affair was the result of an election quarrel growing out of the engage ment of the two men as election guards.
 In those days the police protection at the polls was entirely inadequate, and all kinds of intimidation and cor rupt practices reigned almost un- checked. Early in the history of pugilism the practitioners of the manly art'' were often engaged by wealthy men as bodyguards, and in the course of time the practice of

MRS. P.@rs. BARNUM WEEDS.


 New York, Aug. 7, 1895-Mrs. P. 1T. Barnum vas married in this city to-day to Demetri Cal1ias Bey at the Greek church Agia Trias, $40 West F'ifty-third street. A civil service was performed Property. deeds on both sides were first excuted.l Mrs. Bar mum was represented by ex-Governor. IngersolI of New Haven The reIg- sious ceremony was conducted by the Greek priest Archimandrite Paisois Ferentinos of the F'ifty-third street church. gown of dark blue silk. The brides maids were Miss Carrie Leigh and Miss May Read, both of Bridgeport Conn. @Benjanin Fish, one of the ex- ecutors of the Barnum estate and a cousin of Mrs. Barnur1t was also present.
 TheS bridegroom was accomparke by his best man. Demetricius Bey- Also, present were the Spanish consul; the Greek consul and the Turkish com su1. Immediately after the ceremony there was aswedding breakfast at Del monico's. MT. and Mrs, Demetril Cal lias Bey are to<pass a couple of days This is necessary because of the brides intention to part with Marina, the estate in Bridgeport.
 There has always been great cu- riosity as to the age of the. bride. In the certificate sRe is named as Nancy Barnum, aged 45s and the bridegroom is set down at 47.
 The history of the courtship is in- teresting from the fact that the young widow of the late F. T. -Barnum met her new husband in Cairo a year and l a half ago upon her first trip to the East after the death of her first hus- 1 band. It was love at first sight. Ca1lias Bey halls from NConstantinop1e but his fortune is in large olive plan I tations on the Island of Matetia, in 1 the Grecian Archipelago. He is worth someth4Sg over $2,OO0. 900. Therefore 1 it cannot be said that the handsome
 Greek Nsooed Mrs. Barnum for her
 money CaIlias Bey refuses to live
 at Marina, in@B Bridgeport in view o1 l the fact that a large bronze statue o1
 heroic size of the late P. T. Barnum lis placed directly in front of ths I house. As the statue is the property
 of the city of Bridgeporttsi it cannot be -frenoved. Therefore Mrs. Barnli4fa has
 decided to sell Marina. Under F. T. Barnun1,s will , Mrs
 Barnum inherited besides Marina ] which cost $3oe,0oo. an annuity o1 I $40, ocOz and S1,eoo,ooO.

Young Peter had a great local reputation as a bruser' and the men he took under his wing were not n1oIested by the toughs. Craw1ey almost got into fight him self, however, with a big butcher bruiser named Ben Sutc1ffe, who was hired by the opposing candidate to perform a service similar to that rendered by Craw1ey. Friends per suaded the young fellows to postpone the settlement of their differences until after the election. and on Aug. 7th they met and had it out. The butcher put up a nara pattle' put Crawley was declared the victor atter nearly an hour of fighting.
 That battle practically marked the beginning of the ring career of Peter Crawley. In his next battle. with the famous Gas Hickman, Craw1ey was defeated. After a long retirement Peter fought again and whipped Dick Acton By 1927 Crawley was con ssidered the best heavyweight in Eng Hand, with the exception of Jem l Ward and the men were matched to fight for the championship. Peter then kept a, butcher shop in London, with a boxing school upstairs. and was prospering in both businesses. In his battle with Ward, a ferocious af- l fair, Peter won in the eleventh round, and was acclaimed champion of Eng land. He refused to fight again, however, and soon relinquished the l title.

A NEW DoUBKE GUN.


 MT Charles Ball of this city. has shown us the model of Double-bar-z relI, breech-loading shot gun which he has just invented and made appli- cation for q patent A gunsof this de- seription for firing shot has long bsen ze eaiEfgd ana sought for; but no one has ever been able to devise any apparatus that would work. MT Ball. however, seems to have been more fortunate-and persons who are judges in such matters, are very de- cided in the opinion that his invention will be a great success. Sportsnaen will see at .oRce. more readily than others, what an immense advantage wnl1 be derived from this mode of loading their gun. Those of them who go out after ducks, for instance,
 will be able to load and fire from their boat, without changing position; a ne cessity which they cannot now avoid and which always frightens, and dis perses the flock As is we'll known, there are a plenty of breech- loading sing1e-barreI guns-b1It they are all for shooting bullets; none for shot.
