JOMAS FWDS pflUIiT FfCiCS KL.AWS I\ THE OFFER OF THE BOHEMIAN ATHLETIC CLUB. SAME OLD STORY AGAIN. REFEREE AMD TERMS DO \OT SI IT THE AUSTRALIAN BOX ER'S MANAGER. tftTTZ \Y VNTS A FIGHT TO A FINISH. Curfctn and His Rival No Nearer a Match Than Before a. Purse Was Offered* SAX FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 18.— In an interview with Martin Julian, manager of Robert Fitzsimmons, the pugilist, concerning- the offer of Presi dent Genslinger, of the New Bohemian -Athlttic club, for a twenty-round con test between Corbett and Fitzsimmons, Julian referred to a condition of the offer that "honest" John Kelly should act as referee. "If 'honest' John Kelly is ever present at a contest in which Fitzshr.muns fights, it will be merely as ■ spectator," said Julian. "We will not have him as referee at any price. We don't want a repetition of the Cor bet i -Mitchell fight in Florida. Kelly was referee of that affair, and he did not seem to have the use of his eyes when Corbett struck Mitchell a foul blnW. "But even with 'honest' John elimi nated, the offer does not suit," con tinued Julian. "The purse is a liberal ! one, to be sure, but it is for a twenty round go, and that is not the kind of a fight we are looking for with Corbett. We want to meet him to a finish. Cor bett knows this as well as we do, and he knows further that no such fight can be handled in the state of New York. His speech in Boston last night indicates that he is willing to go any where on earth to settle this business with Fitzsimmons, and I am satisfied an offer will be forthcoming before very long that will inform the sporting world where the men can be put into a ring; to tight until one of them cries enough. Dan Stuart has got such a place, and there are others in the field looking for a battle ground, as well as Stuart." GOOD HINTING WEATHER. l'routy the Winner of the National Derby for Honnda. BARDSTOWN. Ky., Nov. IS.-The second nay of the National Fox Hunters' association meet was productive of some good hunting which was enjoyed by a large field of hunters and spectators. The running also enabled the judges to complete their decisions re garding; the young fox hounds entered in the national derby. The meet was at the court house at 6 o'clock, and a few minutes later the calvacade moved eastward. Thre« miles out of town, in a patch of weeds, a big red j ;ox was Jumped, and the result was as splen- j did a race as was ever witnessed. A red ' hound named Prouty carried the trail sue- ! illy, but was overhauled by Rock and ! Longfellow. The fox reerossed "the ravine, giving the spectators a fine view of the chase' As they came over the fence out or the ra vine. Rock was leading, with Prouty next ' and Longfellow third. After a good gallop through four big fields the leading hounds slipped away from the horsemen and holed their fox very shortly. A move was made for a wood in a hollow further, where the hounds scared up a sec ond fox, and another chase was on. It did not last long, the fox throwing the hounds off in a cornfield. Later on a hound named Recce started a fox in the same wood, and although scent was now failing, the sun being high, they worked out the trail most industriously until the fox broke out of the wood and again ran in full view of many of the participants. A number of other hounds joined in. and for over an hour the hounds ran the fox. but with losses every now and then. The longer they ran the fainter the ■cent got. and finally the fox was lost. The judges then decided to stop for the day After returning to Bardstown the judges tendered the board of directors their de cisions, which were: First prize, Prouty second. .Mr. Walker's Rock; third, Mr. Trigg's Longfellow. The decision also highly com manded Mr. Hagan's Flash, Mr. Walker's Moll and Recce. At a meeting of the directors, held this ♦veiling, the same judges were selected to judge the hounds of all ages, of which about fifty- nave been entered. The running of these hounds will, it Is expected, occupy the 3( mainder of the week. Kit <! K<>i-m Make More Conceiilont. MADISON, Wis., Nov. 18.— Manager Alsted, C>Cin t Take a Bottle of s^ep?

"Bob" ].<•:<<! I•> Xow the Enigma In the Western. The important part of the Grand Rapids deal. says, the Chicago Record, is the bear ing it may have on the factional fight that has been going on in the Western league. At the meeting of the league held here last week it looked as If the Indianapolis club was hopelessly beaten, inasmuch a 8 the six clubs that were alleged to be hostile to Brush succeeded in getting the Minneapolis club to come over more than half . way to their cause, thus giving them seven clubs out of eight. The whip-hand which Brush held be fore this was done lay in the rule existing in the Western league constitution requiring a four-fifths vote to elect a new club to the organization. When Minneapolis was won over, the seven clubs seemed to have com plete control, but now that Grand Rapids has been bought out by new parties the question remains whether the latter may not Join the Brush faction— or rather the Indianapolis fac tion. Brush having signed away his interest In the club, apparently, last week. The chances are, however, that Leadley will be content to side with the majority or to re main on neutral ground. Leadley is well known in base ball. He was secretary of the Detroit National league club when that team was so prominent — one year champion of the big league. Fred K. Steams was then the president of the club. Leadley was considered a clean-cut young business man, one of the kind who are a credit to the game. He was only fairly successful as a manager. He now holds a municipal office in Detroit. PITCHER (iI'HBERT'S CASE. It Will Be Tried Without a Jury's AM. PITTSBURG. Pa., Nov. 18.— The damage suit of Addison C. Gumbert. the well known base ball pitcher of this city, against the Chicago League Base Ball club, including A. C. Anson and James Hart, will be disposed of In the United States circuit court without a jury. During today's session of the court the counsel for both sides notified Judge Acheson that they had agreed to waive a jury trial and desired the action to be tried before Judge Acheson without that formality. The latter consented, and he will likely call the case later in the week, when testimony will be submitted and arguments heard. The action, which has created more than ordinary interest in the base ball and sport ing world, was instituted to recover $10,000 damages, which Gumbert claims on account of an alleged breach of contract. i n ton in Track.

THEIR SCHOOL DAYS FORMER HVPILrS OF THE CHRIS TIAN BROTHERS cm.EttJ.RATU THE AJTirrVEIRSART. THEY GO BACK TO BOYHOOD WHEIN ARCHBISHOP 1RE1.4 M> WAS A PASTOR IN THE SCHOOL. ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 1 <Mt «XI). Memorable Celebration at Cretin Hall l.tLHt Mg-hi of a Meinora Me Event 25 Yearn Ago, Nearly two hundred of the former pupils of the Christian Brothers' schools assembled at Cretin hall last evening to celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Christian Brothers' schools, and also to effect a perma nent alumni organization. The latter purpose was accomplished first, when the former pupils held a session early in the evening, prior to the banquet, adopted a constitution and bylaws and elected permanent officers as follows: President, George T. Redington; vice president, John F. McCauley; secre tary, W. J. Conway; treasurer, John Melady. An executive committee of fifteen was also elected, consisting of the following gentlemen: George J. Danz, Frank J. Casserly, Alfred Souch eray, John F. O'Brien, D. P. Scanlan, C. A. McCarthy, John F. McCauley, Joseph A. Rogers, Thomas ODea, Hon. T. D. O'Brien, Eugene Melady, John J. Daly, John McCall, Frank X. Miller and John Fitzgerald. Hereafter the association will hold its annual meetings in October. The banquet, which was served in the commodious hall, will be long remem bcrod by all the participants. Among the assemblage were many well-known citizens, who received their education from the Christian Brothers. The clergy was represented by Archbishop Ireland aaid Rev. Fathers Heffron. J. J. Lawler, Charles Corcoran and James A. Fitzpatrick, who sat at the speakers' table. At the left of the toastmaster, Dr. H. O'Brien, sat the Christian Brothers, Emery, John, Jerome, Ed ward and Lawrence. The hall was draped with the stars and stripes and the stage was taste fully decorated with flowers and plants. After the repast was finished, Presi dent Redington, of the Alumni associ ation, announced that a special com mittee of the association had prepared an address to the Christian Brothers, which he would take great pleasure in reading. The address was as follows: Dear Brothera of the Christian Schools: Most pleasing is the gracious task, assigned to me by the favor of my associates, of ten dering to you, from hearts inspired with ten der sentiments and grateful emotions, the congratulations which the pupils and gradu ates desire to offer upon this occasion. We celebrate tonight a continuous course of educational labor extending through a quarter of a century. During that time the pious and learned Christian Brothers have wrought in earnestness, sincerity and efficiency, as teach ers of the true religious faith and of secular knowledge. Without noisy proclamation, without parade or ostentation, but in quietness, patience and humility, has this work proceeded. None the less has it been effective. A multitude of Catholic youth has been educated. The character of the instruction given by your selves and your predecessors has constantly improved. All the accessories which have come into use. as the leading systems of edu cation hayed been developed, have been made a part of the facilities employed in the schools entrusted to your charge. The courses of study have been progressively expanded until they include, not only the subjects taught in primary departments, but, also, those pertaining to the courses of the most advanced high schools. The young men who have enjoyed the advantages afforded by your school* have found themselves well equipped for the duties of life. They have met no competitor in business pursuits who could boast of a better education obtained in a given number of years. Indeed, for intelli gence, sound information and general capacity the graduates of this institution have suc cessfully held their own. Those who have gone into professional life have gained the highest honors and rewards. These facts necessarily reflect credit upon the system of instruction given by the Chris tian Brothers in the Catholic schools. No plan of education can be more justly judged than by its general effects. Put to this test, your schools have proven their unqualified excellence. The supreme advantage of the instruction given in the schools under your control is its wide seeope and extent. It includes, not onl«»Jiuman learning, buc the knowledge of things divine — the science of religion as de fined by the holy Catholic church. As man is designed for two separate, dis tinct, successive states of existence, no scheme of education would be complete which failed to prepare him for both. As the existence which liea beyond the limits of this life ia eternal, while the life through which we are now speeding is limited in duration, at the utmost, to "three score years and ten," it would be folly to consider in plans of education, the minor and fleeting existence, while ignoring that both supreme in importance and endless in duration. No such fatal mistake is made in the Cretin school and other institutions under the charge of your noble order of teachers. The glory of religious faith surrounds your ministrations like a beauteous halo, and its effulgence illuminates brightly teacher and pupil alike. As the "old red-brick school house" has given place to the new and beautiful struct ure named in memory and honor of the saint ly Bishop Cretin, so. in the future time, as we confidently believe, will the system of in struction carried on by your intelligent ef forts, be ever building in the hearts and understanding of mankind new and glorious monuments. You have our congratulations, our gratitude, our regard, our assurances of support and aid. You will accept them all. knowing that you receive the tribute of loyal hearts nurtured by your care in the Catholic faith, in true Intellectual culture, and in lofty sentiment. —James J. Parrell, — T. P. Naughton, — M. J. Redding. —Patrick McCauley, — Albert G. Moosbrugger, Committee on Address. —George T. Redington, Chairman. — William J. Conway, Secretary. Brother Emery, the director of the school, in response to the address, ex pressed, on behalf of the brothers, thtlr gratitude for the kind sentiments ex pressed by the former pupils. The school, Brother Emery said, was but one factor in the education of the man. | The brothers labored in season and out of season for the advancement of their pupils. They sought to impress upon them the value of good character and the great truth that a man is estimated for what he is, not for what he pos sesses. In conclusion Brother Emery said that the school was in a flourish ing condition. President Redington then introduced Dr. H. J. O'Brien as the toastmaster of the evening. Dr. O'Brien, after a few felicitous remarks anent the duties of a toastmaster, introduced Rev. James A. Fitzpatrick, of St. James' church, who spoke of the city of St Paul. Father Fitzpatrick said that it had been hie privilege to see many beau tiful cities in this country and the old countr> r , but St. Paul, in its picturesque location, was equal to any city he had ever Been, notwithstanding that the way In which the streets meet at Sev en corners had given rise to the belief that three cross-eyed Frenchmen had laid out the city. St. Paul had become the railroad center of the Northwest, ac well ac its industrial and commerc ial center. Fatfoer Fitzpatrick pre dicted that St. Paul was destined to combine all the graces and learning of. j the ancient and mediaeval cities, fit ! Paul already had lta Institutions of learning and wae willing to wait for i its crowning glory, the cathedral. A baritone eolo, artistically sung by Frank Hoffman, followed, The toast, "Catholic Education an<3 Citizenship," was responded to by John Ryan, now * student at St. Paul's sem- itmry. Mr. Ryaa paid that Catholic education taught a man to fulfil his duty to hli Go<S and his fellow man. But th* moat Important service that Catholic education rendered to dtlAn ■hip was exemplified in a republic l"ke this, In which the citizen la a sovereign. The education most necessary to a cit iien as a legislator was moral educa tion. A male quartette, comprising- Messrs. Gehan, Morrow, Soucftertry and Hoff man, satig two sel^ctl^ns, after which' Dr. O'Brien presented Thomas D, O'Brien, who responded to the toast "WHEN WE WERE BOYS." Mr. O'Brien recalled, the reminis cences of the earlier days In St. Paul, when the city was .smaller, and had fewer rich men but was more social, perhaps, than it is today. .Mr. O'Brien congratulated his brother alumni on forming an organisation, •which "would enable them to gather 'rrnce a year and renew their a3*>ociation°with the broth ers who taught them". Mr. O'Brien re minded his fellow iaJu^mn-i that when they were boys, the ljameof some who were present had scarcely begun, but they had lived to see the fame of the founder of the first Christian Brothers' school 1n St. Paul, become world-wide. He was their Father Ireland. The tri bute to Archbishop Ireland was greeted j with hearty applause. Rev. Charles Corcoran's subject was "The Church." Father Corcoran said that most of those present had learned j to love the church in beholding the | self-sacrificing lives of the Christian I Brothers who had taught them. Father Corcoran paid a tribute to the Chris tian Brothers for their patience and devotion to duty, in planting the seeds of loyalty and affection for the church. William J. McCa.be, who followed Mr. O'Brien, described and discussed in an entertaining way "The Young Man of Today." Mr. McCabe spoke of the prominence of the young man of to day in the progressive arts and scien ces, as well as in mercantile life. The last toast, "Our Schools," was re sponded to by Rev. J. j. Lawler. Father Lawler said he was proud of the Catholic schools because they stood for true education. He took exception to the contention that purely intellect ual and physical culture constituted all that was necessary. Intellectual culture alone had never brought lasting pros perity to any nation or people. A child given intellectual power without the moral curb, was given a power with out the principle to guide that power Culture might hide sin, but sin would remain. Lack of worldly knowledge might be a misfortune, lack of religious knowledge was a crime. Well behaved characters are what the nation and the people want, and such characters are the result of education in the Christian Brothers' schools. Dr. O'Brien then turned to Arch bishop Ireland and said that the time had come for the pupils of the Christ ian Brothers' schools to hear from the archbishop. In response Archbishop Ireland said in part : ■ "It gives me great pleasure to see the assembled pupils of the Christian Brothers' school, or as we used to call it, the pupils of the .Cathedral school. Just one room in those days, at the corner of Wabasha and Sixth streets contained all the boys of the Cathedral school. Later on I was pastor of that school and I believe th£ best labors ot my life were those I expended on thoso schools. I have watched the Brothers' work in St. Paul for a quarter of a cen tury and this is one of the great bless ings of God that we have the Christian Brothers in this city. I need not tell you of their disinterestedness in teach ing their pupils with no reward in pros pect save that of seeing you becorn« good citizens and honorable men. You need not look for better ideals or nobler examples of the teachings of the church than you see in these Christian Brothers. With such teachers we neeo not wonder at seeing such good pupils. It is a delight for me to see you here gathered, indicating in your counte nances and behavior, the gentleman, the Christian and the man. What can bishops and priests wish for but to sco the Catholic laymen distinguishing themselves and honoring their allegi ance? "I might wish to see temples crown ing our hills, but temples are not the church. The living-church is the man. It is my delight to know that you are worthy of this holy mission. What word can I pronounce that will so in j spire you as 'Catholic?' Be ever j Catholics. No one is worthy to be a ! Catholic who is not willing to be a | martyr. Rather die than be sullied. Just as you are will be the church in the years to come. "I am glad that an organization of the pulpits of the Christian schools has been formed. Your school days will remind you of days of happiness and innocence. Recall them and you wtJl be better men, better citizens, better Christians." In conclusion, Archbishop Ireland j urged the young men to remain togeth- I er as much as possible, and renew as i sociations of the old school days. "There was a time, twenty-five years I ago," said the Archbishop, "when 1 knew the boys of the school, and occa sionally had to scold them and some times had to make a *mark' on them more lasting than a . mere scolding. (Laughter.) But I Say this, the boys I knew were good boys/ though some times they were late,, knd sometimes on a bright day, they st^id away, but I never knew one to do, anything dis graceful. They were .good boys. I lvever despair of a pupil O f the old cathedral school. The best thing that can be told to a bishop »f the church is that the young men-, of -the church are worthy of their high mission." Thus concluded ,a memorable cele bration of a memorable event. •«> 1 St. George** Scorched. LONDON. Nov. 18.— Fire ' tonight in St. George's. Hanover square, destroyed the tow er of the church.

PURGE THE STREET MAYOR DORAS ASKKI3 TO CAI'SB THE REMOVAL, OF OBJEC TIONABLE CHARACTERS FROM A PART. OF THIRD ST. HIS FORMER ORDERS H.\"E DRIV- Bf THEM WHERE THEY'RE NOT WANTED. PROPERTY OWNERS IKDIGXAXT. TUey Appeal to the County Attorney but Are Referred t© tlie Clty'« Chief Executive. If the history of the closing up of a number of immoral resorts in one part of St. Paul and the opening up of others by the same people in another part of the city were known it would make interesting reading. It would not, however, if half the street stories about it are true, reflect credit on a whole lot of people, or to put it well within the limits, a half a dozen people. Within six weeks after Mayor Dor an's inauguration the keepers of re sorts on South Washington street and vicinity began to tell that one of the first reforms they were going to bring about to increase the popularity of their resorts was the concentration of these places. There were a number located in other parts of the city, they said, that were too prosperous because of their advantageous locations. These would have to shut up. How could they be made to close? Money would do it. It was commonly reported that a fund was being raised to buy influ ence, etc., to have the down-town re scrts closed, and later it was told, and generally talked about, that a purse of $600 had been raised for the purpose. Certain women, keepers of Washing ton street resorts, told their patrons they had subscribed money to the fund and that one particular woman, whose name was mentioned, had been made treasurer and later had duly pai-1 the money over to the man who was going to have the other places closed. In fact some people even went so far as to say who got the money and how it was split up. Whether the money was divided up or even paid over is v matter that a grand jury alone could discover, so the Globe simply men tions rumors that anybody could hear about the alleged transaction. It was while all this was being talked over Chief Goss assumed an active in terest in the matter. His activity in the matter was satisfactorily explained by the statement that somebody had complained about one resort near a down-town hotel, and asked Mayor Doran to have it closed. The mayor or dered Chief Goss to close it. At the same time the keepers of eight other places on the same street were ordered to close. The Globe told of the fact that Mayor Doran said to a reporter for the Globe that he had only or dered Chief Goss to close the one place about which complaint had been made to him. But that very same day and about the same time Chief Goss told a reporter that Mayor Doran had or dered him to close nine of them and he had taken steps to do so. One or the other had forgotten his lines. Some of the women kicked against the orders, saying- they were not objectionable to any of the business houses near th^n 1 and there were no private families near. They threatened to fight but Chief Goss told them it was case of moving or he would "pull" the houses every day. So they all moved, some 01' them into vacant Washington street houses and others along Third street The latter at once has become the most objectionable part of the city, some of the property owners claim, and now there is going to be trouble for Mayor Doran unless he makes another move in the civic checker board. For Horatio D. West, of the West Publishing com pany, and others have declared them selves. Mr. West goes so far as to say they will move or the West Publish ing company's plant will move to an other city. Mr. West is emphatically in earnest in the matter. If Mayor Doran does not prevent the further habitation of upper Third street by these people I will have the people of St. Paul about his ears. ' That is how Mr. West feels about ?t and when he made the remark he brought his fist down with a resound ing thump on the desk of Sergeant Horn, at the central police headquar ters. MR. WEST WAS ANGRY. "I have had a talk with Mayor Doran before on this subject and he said he would instruct Chief of Police Goss to prevent any more of such objectionable institutions being established in our neighborhood. We have in our employ about 500 people, many of whom are young ladies of respectable parentage. It is asking too much of them to have them walk through a street which has the reputation of harboring question able resorts, each morning, noon and evening to and from their work. Why, would their parents allow them to walk up and down Eagle street, below the hill? Certainly not; but to walk up and down Third street is no better now. "Before the resorts were moved from lower town our young ladies were noc aware of the condition of the street, but now they are painfully reminded of the fact. Third street has gained the publicity of scandal through Mayor Doran's efforts to cleanse Jackson." Here Capt. West waxed wroth and continued: "The West Publishing company's business extends throughout the entire United States and brings into the city thousands of dollars daily, which are expended right here in St. Paul. But let me tell you right h<fre, if Mayor Doran finds it impossible to remove the Third street houses of ill fame in our vicinity, we will take our plant to another city, no matter what expense would be involved. "I do not desire to have any trouble with Mr. Domn, for I have known him a long time and like him personally, but I am, to a certain extent, respon sible for the moral welfare of those In my employ and am therefore con cerned as to the purity of their sur roundings." Capt. West headed a delegation of representative citizens of St. Paul yes terday afternoon, who waited on the county attorney to see what could be done. Attorney Stan Donnelly grew a little sarcastic when he heard their plaint and directed them to the helm of the local administration, the mayor. "Now," said he, "you who prated so much about the rottenness of the local government under Mayor Smith's rule can get a taste of it yourself under the rule of your own mayor." Capt. West also had the following to say: "I know that if Mayor Smith was In the chair I would have no trouble In getting a fair audience."

GOV. CLOtOU'S ELECTION. It In Poanlble That It May Be (on teated. Chairman Rosing, of the Democratic State Central committee, returned to St. Paul yesterday and began to go over the correspondence relating to the state election that has accumulated during his absence. The information will be carefully compiled by Secretary Pope, and when it has been considered, the question of whether the election of Gov. Clough will be contested or not will be determined. Chairman Rosing has received a good deal of information from different counties in the state which leads him to think that a recount of the ballot would reduce Gov. Clough's majority and possibly show that John Lind has received the major ity of votes. Letters from election judges tell of ballots having been thrown out because the vpte on the presidential electors was irregular. How much difference this would make cannot be told unless the ballot boxes were opened and the ballots counted. A great number of offers of funds to assist in a contest have come in. The managers of the late campaign will be in no hurry about making a decision as the law allows twenty or thirty days to file notice after the official count of the state, which will not be made until some time next month. * * * T. B. Scott, the legislative represent ative from the Seventh district, is the first of the successful candidates in the recent election to file his expense ac count with the county auditor, Mr. Scott's compliance with the law yester day showed an expenditure of $150.

Is not only intensely painful, dan gerous to life and very expensive, but in the light of modern medical research and since the discovery of the Pyramid Pile Cure a surgical operation is wholly unnecessary. If you have any doubt on this point kindly read the following I letters from people who know that our claims regarding the merits of the Pyramid Pile Cure are borne out by the facts. From N. A. Stall, Ridge Road, Ni agara Co., N. V.: I received your Pyramid Pile Cure and tested it la3t night. It did me more good than any thing I have ever found yet, and re member this was the result of one night's treatment only. From Perm W. Arnett, Batesville, Ark.: Gentlemen— Your Pyramid Pile Cure has done me so much good in so short a time that my son-in-law, Capt. T. J. Klein, of Fort Smith. Ark., has written me for your address as he wishes to try it also. From A. E. Townsend, Benville. Ind.: I have been so much benefited by tba Pyramid Pile Cure that I enclose $1, for which please send a package which I wish to give to a friend of mine whj suffers very much from pile*. From John H. Wright, Clinton, Ds Witt Co., 111.: I am so well pleased with the Pyramid Pile Cure that I think It but right to drop you a few lines to inform you its effect* have been all that I could ask or wish. From P. A. BrutOn, Llano, Tex - Gentlemen— The Pyramid Pile Cure has done so much good for me that I will say for the benefit of others that after using only two days I am better than I have been for months. The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by The Pyramid Drug Co. of Albion, Mich., and it is truly a wonderful rem edy for all forms of piles. So great has been the number of " testimonial letters received by them from all parts of the country that they have decided to publish each week a number of such, letters and never use the same letter twice, but only fresh letters will be published. All druggists recommend the Pyra mid Pile Cure, as they know from what their customers say that no remedy gives such general satisfaction.
