It was .innounced that the returns from

the auspices of the Jackson Democratic

They have soioe revenges to keep, and ac
cording to the sentiment or the meeting
last night, the revenge -will be complete.
In reference to the action of tlie while
Republicans iu ignoring the colored voters,
a stirring address lias bepn issued, which
has been largely circulated in Maryland
Ihe following extracts from the address
will aliow the temper of the colored
Republicans aud furnish evidence of ac
least one part ol the possibility as under
stood by the Democrats in this city:
city:
"AFer years of loyalty and unswerving
devotion to the interests of the Republican

they, b their votes, placed in power in the
Stae. Where is the once boasted love or

and immunities of the negro?"
Jt has now leaked out, according to the
Baltimore Herald and other intimations,
that Mark Hauua has opened a barrel in
Maryland to buy up the colored voters.
'-The colored ministers and intelligent
colored people or the State of Maryland will

San Francisco. Oct. 20 The greatest
crowd at a pi Ize fight In San Francisco
Mnee the Khirkcy-FItzHiniuious mill saw
the Wuioott Lavigue battle tonight in the
MecliauicH Pavilion. Fully 8.000 peoplo
were in thu place. The betting started
rumors thatit would b,a fake. The betting
opened a week ago at 10 to S, witn Wol
Cotthaing the bulge.
Monday last, after vailous rumors had
been circulated r Iavigne became favorite
at 10 to9,nnd late tonight It wa&lOto 0.
No Wolcott money could bo brought out
at these odds. 'VVolcott's reduction iu
weight to iU5 pounds Is f-utd to have
weakened him.
At ! 15 p. u the ireu entered the ring,
AVolcott fin,t and Tavlgne Immediately
following. Behind "Wolcott were 0'Rouike.
Joe Cotton and Qeoigo Dixon. Lavigne
had behind him Tol Alexander, Billy Arm
strong and Jfclly Lavigue. Eddie Granoy
was referee, ne announced that if he
saw anything about the affair that looked
questionable he would declare It a Take and
walk fut ot the ring. Tlie gong sounded al
in o'clock The men agreed to fight in
clinches with a free arm.
In the first iound both were careful
but Lavigmt was, the moru aggressive,
thougb a bit wild. He followed Wolcott
viciously during the last ball of the round
and landed a number of telling blows on
the other lad's face. The men were
fighting like demons, with Lavigue hav
ing decidedly the best of it -when tlie
round cridrd.
Round 2 Both men were strong and ag
gressive, cutting a very Taut puce. l- vine
was rather wild but he scored more Ire
nueutlv in the first minute. Wolcott evened
mattcru up toward the clone and it was
anybody's fight.
Uounu 3 inemeii kept uptheirfast pace,
Lavigue doing the bulk or the leading, but
Wolcott stood his ground aud blocked most
of the "Kid's" leads.
Round 1 Both men fought fiercely. La
vigue was wild, but Wokutt did not do
him mm h damage to speak of, content
ing himself with bloc klugthe "kid's- 'blows.
In a tyclone rush Wolcott was thrown
heavily through the ropes, but was not
distressed uuy. The round closed with
honors even.
Round 5 Lavigue was still disposed to
rush matters, but Wolcott stood him orf
Cleverly. Neither man seemed to lie ablo
to got in any telling blows, most ol their
leads, iiarticulaily Lavigne's, being Wild.
The fight so far was fast but ratherclumsy.
Round 0 The men went at each other
like butchers, l.avigne hammering Wol
cott viciously in the stomach aud ajw
with his right. Joe chopped the "kid"
on the neck with overhand blows, but did
not seem to distress him. Tins round was
very fust and Lavigue had a slight ad
vantage. Round 7 Lnvlgne went after the colored
boy like a cyclone, hammering him round
the four earners of the ring. Ho soon bud
Woleoit groggy, but the latter clinched,
ducked and turued his back on the "Kid"
to avoid the terrific punishment. Tlie
round ended in a chncli Willi Wolcott do
ing the huggiug.
Round & Wcicolt seemed to recuperate
in the rest, uhlle Lnvigne slowed up. Tlie
men kept together and battered away with
out much advantage. Although Lariffne
seemed to be doing the most effective
fighting, Wolcott opened a gash over La
vogn"s forehead, but this only seemed to
infuriate the "Kid,'' who beat the col
ored t)oy In a fearrul manner toward the
close or the round and sent him limping and
groggy to his corner.
Round 9 This was a gory round, both
men righting like wildcats. Lavignc
beemed to be short of steam, while
Wolcott was stronger, and did some hard
work. The men were clinched most or
the time, and the only effective blow in
the round was landed by Lavigue over
Wolcott's heart.
Round 10 Wolcottcame up limping, and
it was said that he was faking eramps.
Lavigne went at him, scoring on the body
and jaw, but getting about as good as he
gave. The pace was getting perceptibly
slower, and Lavigne was covered with
blood. The referee was blood-spattered
Trom parting the men who were clinched
most or the time. Lavigne had a shade the
best or the round, downing Wolcott once,
but he seemed weaker.
Round 11 Wolcott seemed to bestrongin
clinches, but Lavigne continued to fol
low and play for the body. Molcott bad
found a way of stopping the "Kid's"
drives, boweer, and Lavign- transferred
his attention to Wolcott's Jaw, landing
some telling rights there. Lavigne seemed
to be suffering from cramps as the round
closed.
Round 12 Lavigne was a Mjrry looking
Tighter with his blood-covered face, but
he was strong and kept up the pace.
Drive after drive he planted on Wolcott's
stomach, and the colored boy was assisted
to his corner by O'Rourke after receiving
fearful beatings in the stomach. The round
was Lavigne's.
At the close of the round, O'Rourke an
nounced that Wolcott could fight no more
on account of cramps, and he accordingly
threw up the sponge amid deafening
cheers.
The victory was fairly caiTied by Ka
vigne, who did most of the leading and
landed nearly all the punishing blows.

C. A. C. and Columbian 'Varsity
Will Line Up Today.
MAKE-UP OF THE TWO TEAMS
Clmiigf'K Made in Both Elevens
Which Strengthen. Them Dyer,
Cornells- Old Hack, Will Bo Put
in by Captain Wells cw Center
for the Winged Arrow.
The orange aud blue of the Columbian
University ana the ''winged arrow" war
riors from the Columbia Athletic Club
will meet ou the gridiron at National Park
this afternoon In the first big football
otruggle of tlie season. Recognized ah the
star pigskin kicking aggregations or Wash
ington thomeetifg will be a battle of the
clants, and thevinors will be crowned
kings oi tlje local gridiron. The red and
black lia sp lonjwaved triumphantly over (
the Senatorial rootball field that au -d-mittedly
dangerous competitor for their
honors has'Wpa'ted an intense excitement
among enthusiastic followers tif the game.
Heretofore all-has been plain sailing Tor
the C. A.' C. team . Since their old en
emies from Georgetown University re
tired from thu -field tho "winged arrow '
boys have- gon o 'heir way rejoicing
with a practically unchallenged chumplon
shlp. No local tearn has been strong enough
to really glvo Gapt. Wells aud his men
a run Tor the honors.
Now, however, all this is changed. The
Columbia 'Varsity eleven lb in the game
for keeps and intend to make a sure
right Tor the banner which has for so
long been flaunted iu their fuces by the
C. A. C. aggregation. Capt. Granville
Lewis has gotten together a team which
will undoubtedly give the C. A. C. boys
a run for their money.
Today's game is worth more to these,
teams than all the other games they will
play this seadon, aud needless to say they
will put forth their bestertorts to secure a
victory. They have put iu some hard
practice for the event. Every afternoon
the captains or these teams have liad
their men at work practicing the signals
and mass plays which will be put into exe
cution this afternoon.
Captain Wellslearned much of the weak
places In his team when the eleven lined
up before the Orange A. C- at Orange
Oval, last Saturday, and he has di
rected his every errort to strengthening
the work back of the line and will make
some lunovationh today that he predicts
will Insure an overwhelming victory for
the red and black.
Or the new men secured Dyer shows
up more prominently than the rest, aud
will do much toward the success or the
team. He Is an .exceptionally strong and
accurate kicker, and is not only a good
line-buck er and all-round good rootball
player, but enthuses the men to the high
est point with his own spirit and activity.
From his position behind the line he will
be able to give nuny valuable hints and
suggestions that will be or the utmost
use as the game progresses. Bright, at
center, is also a "valuable man, as Is Reeve
Lewis, who has-returned to the game for
the benefit of his club.
The C. A. C. brawn was rehearsed la
signal pracilccr formation, interference,
and kicking yesterday on the tennlsgrounds
adjoining tue clubhbuse. Capt. Wells was
encouraged by the vim and earnest work
coupled with the enthusiasm of his men.
The sturdy C.A. CMoommander announces
that his. athletes are iu excellent trim in
view of tbft limited stretch of practice,
due, of course to the weather. The
C. A. C. boys arc without the services of
a scrjb team, and consequently they have
been unable to develop defensive play.
But one game has been played by the Wells
aggregation , while the 'varsity team has
participate inMthree contests, thus giving
the 'varsltv alsliade the advantage iu
defensive play.g j
The probablcnipc-up of the "winged ar
ro w" aggregation will be: Left end,
Humphreys, Cilrtias; left tackle, D wight
Smith; left guard, McConville; center,
Claudy, Bright; right guard, Saunders; ri ght
tackle, Wells; right end, Exley, Taussig;
quarterback, Tarson, Hooker; right half
back, Dickinson, Watson; left halfback,
Reeve Lewis, Ja.upiu; fullback, Dyer,
Bright.
The 'varsitycill undergo very Httle
change, as CaptpGrauville Lewis Is very
well satisfied Un the showing or the
team as a wholg papt. Lewis will shine
in a stellar rolc;lat the fullback. Cum
mlngs, who Is ,Xo' be assigned to left
guard, looks a "fewer of strength and is
one or the best trained athletes in the
team as regards team work. He is a
striking rigurc on the line and the tip
topper of tliateam in pointer avoirdupois.
LauchB, who is carded to play left tackle,
is sturdy and well made, and hie husky
figure is capable of roughing it at close
quarters in the heat of the fray-
Tindall will play right hairback, and
has the enthusiastic Indorsement of Capt.
Lewis, who is confident that his right
half can conveniently .pierce the line or
skirt the end of tlie opposition- Kelly
J and Meigs, whose work on the ends in
the game against the Richmond Athletic
Club's team was one of the features of
the game, are In perfect condition. Capfc.
Lewis places the utmost reliance on his
pair of end men as regards tackling and
Interference and in the fine points of
team work. The 'varsity boys, according

Bojs From the Hill Downed by the
Gulluudet. Eleven.
In the second game between the East
ern High School and Gallaudets. which
was played at Kendall Green yenterday
afternoon, the latter team won a stub
bornly contested game by a score or 1-1
to 8.
With the exception or a telllngadvantage
iu weight Tor the Gnllaudatsthe teams were
excellently matched. The defensive play
or both elevens lias leea developed to a
degree that is almost perrect, while the of
fensive plav -.as their principal weakness.
The same wn. full or interesting fea
tures, both teanr making Jong successive
gains and exhibiting phenomenal defensive
team and Jndrudual work. The mas in
ttrfeietice play ot the Gallaudets was
almost unbreakable, and the double pass
t-Ick, which was repeutedly worked by
this team, counted for gains ot ten yards
or more every time.
The Interference work of the Eastern
team was equally as good as that ot their
opponents, and It was only by their de
fensive work that the.v were enabled to
score.
The most notable play of the gaiiie
was a star exhibition or dodgiugnnd sprint
ing by Soc. Maupln and excellent Inter
ference bv Gitirge Hoover. Three tnln
utes or play remained when the ball was
passed to Soc, who cleared left end be
hind well-foimed Interference and set
soil behind George Hoover for the gwal
posts. En) loomed up in midficld as a
mighty obstacle, but little Hoover arb
fully blocked him and Soc. slipped oft
to the side and chased over the goal line

FOTJH IMPORTANT GAMES.
All the Blir 'Varsity Teams to Meet
.Strong Opponents.
New York. Oct. 29. Fourinter-collegiate
footfall games of conquerable importance
will be played tomorrow, the results of
which, will afford even better lines on the
strength ot tho big elevens than what has
been gleaned jfrom the contests already
p'ayed. Harvard will play Cornell at Cam
bridge; Pennsylvania will meet Brown at
Providence; Yale will tackle the cadets at
West Pol'it, and Dartmouth's eleven will
line up against the Tigers at Princeton.
The Harwd-Coruell game is attracting
more attention among the enthusiasts all
over the country than the other events.
The Cornell eleven, as is generally known,
it: stronger thi fall than for several years
back. The Ithacans have played a sen
sational oraw with Lafayette this seascu,
and last Saturday they put up such good
rootball that Princeton heat them by the
small score or 10 to 0.
Cornell men have been claiming, ever
since the season began, that their team
would beat Harvard. They have baed
tholr opinions on the fact that the material
at hand has been better than ever before
and that theeoaches, WarnerandBeachara,
are the most competent that Cornell has
ever hd. In game to date the Ithacans
rush line has Invariably been speedy and
that Is a big factor in any tcam'jstrength.
Haivaid's lln. on the contrary, has been
criticised almost continuously for slow
ness. TI: gn-at body of Harvard men, includ
Ing the couhps or the team and Boston en
thusiosts, are strong in the belier that Har
vard will win, but they are careful not to
predict any score and refrain from declar
ing wliPther Cornell can get the ball across
Harvard's goal line or not.
