STOP THESE FIGHTS,
Prize Fighting in Tcpeka Has Gone
Far Enough.
HOW I1KE ARRESTS BIGHT AWAY.
Xclther Coetj Attorney Stafford 5ior
Chief IJadiey Are Doing; Their
Iut.
At the end of the street car line at
Lowman Hill last night, there was a prize
fight between Mike West and Harry
Hoff master for a purse of thirty dollars
and West won it in five founds.
It was the same West that whipped
young Barabini near Washburn college
on Sunday in two rounds.
The eporta had a hard time to find a
place to have the fight unmolested last
evening. It was first announced among
the elect that the tight would take place
at Oakland park. At the last moment it
was changed to th fair grounds, but
Chief Lindsey and seme officers in a
hack appeared on the scene and the
crowd dodged them and went to L owman
Hill, where they were successful in get
ting a five round entertainment
It is said the fighters used six-ounce
gloves. The light took place in a vacant
lot and was witnessed by about one hun
dred and fifty men and boys. There
were several knock downs, and in the
fifth round West suddenly swung his
right under Hoffinaster'a heart, and the
latter dropped like a lo?. He was up in
nine seconds, but fell again without be
ing hit, and failed to respond to the
tenth second. The combatants were less
than twenty yeara of ace.
County Attorney Safford and Chief of
Police Lindsey are certainlv neglecting
their duty if they do not arrest and pun
ish these violators of the law. This dis
graceful business haa gone far enough
and should be stopped. If the officers
of the law aro not goinir to do their duty
in the matter of prize tights, wo want to
know it quick.
There haa been altogether too much
dodging of responsibility lately, and
loud complaints are coming from all the
best classes of the city. If Chief Lind
sey doesn't propose to make arrests, that
is no reason why County Attorney Saf
ford shouldn't proceed against these par
ties at once. The inaction of the public
officers in these matters is an outrage on
decency, and that ia the mildest term
that can be used. ,
KAFFIRS WILL ATTACK.
Several Thousand Threaten the Town of
Lorenzo, Which I JPoorly Protected.
Lorenzo Marquez, Delagoa Bay, epti
25. Several thousand Kaliirs are threat
ening to attack thia town. The govern
ment haa distributed arms among the
white population for defense. Serioua
trouble ia expected. Lorenzo Marquez
ia a small Portuguese town of Africa, on
the north side of Delagoa bay.
It has a good harbor, which give it
considerable importance in the trade
with the Transvaal. The town has
a population of about 3,030, and ia
protected by a number of roughly con
structed old forts. The town ia situated
in the southern portion of the province
of Portugueae. Bast Africa which ex
tends along the coast from the mouth of
the Zambesi to Delagoa bay and is bound
ed in by Mashonaland, Matabela and
Transvaal.
The Transvaal leaders have lonir been
anxious to secure control of the Delagoa
Bay railroad and they have also been
ambitious to have a seaport, Lourenzo
Marquez preferred. With this object in
view the boera recently sent a sum of
$250,000 in London in order to purchase
the bonds which Portugal is expected to
issue as soon as the Berne arbitrators
have decided the question of boundaries.
A few days ago, on beptamber lo, ad
vices from Pretoria said that the Trans
vaal government had acquired the prior
rights in Delagoa bay, including control
of the port duties, thus giving the Trans
vaal a commanding position and free ac
cess to theae.

TO ANTAGONIZE UNIONS.
Employers' and Builders League to Devise
Way and Means Against Them.
New York, Sept. 25. At a meeting of
the Employers' ard Builders' league
last night John P. Lee was elected per
manent president and Francis J. Schuch
vice president. The object of the or
ganization, as announced by President
Lee, ia to devise ways and means to an
tagonize union labor in the building
trades.

ters, three stair builders and twenty-six

FOUGHT OVER A GIRL.
Young Men Were toiag to Have a Duel
lut Couldn't Wait.
Anderson, Ind., Sept. 25. Orval John
son and William Maloue, two young men
of this city, were to have fought a duel
in North Anderson last night. They met,
and while their seconds were marking off
the ground and making the arrangements
the two principals got into a fight which
resulted in Malone's being "laid out stiff"
and rendered unable to proceed. Both
the young men are prominent socially.
The trouble arose over a girl.

f MARY LEASE'S BET.
She Has Watered a 0 Suit With J. K.
Hudson On the Election.
Mrs. Mary E. Lease, who ia speaking
at a Populist rally at Bonner Springs to
day, waa in Kansas City last evening,
and in ah interview told of a bet she made
with Major J. K, Hudaon of the Capital.
She said: "The Populists will carry
Kansas by about 30,000. Do you know,
it waa a discussion upon this very subject
that led me to make my first bet? Joe
Hudson of the Topeka Capital and my
self were talking one day and I said the
Populists would win. Hudaon differed.
He had confidence in the Republicans,
and offered to bet a $50 dress against a
$ 50 suit of clothes that the Republicans
would win. I did not want to bet. and
said I waa afraid. He laughed at me. I
said I waa not afraid I would lose but
that I had never mada a bet, and waa a
little timid. I finally took it however,
and the bet ia duly recorded. The fall
elections shall decide who shall wear the
new clothes. He haa one advantage,
though. Fiftv dollars will buy a splen
did suit of clothes, but not an extra fine
dreas."
The reporter reminded her that she
rode home from Pullman, where she re
cently went on a tour of investigation, in
a Pullman car, to which she said: "Yes,
I usually ride in a Pullman if I have very
far to go, aa it is more comfortable, but
unfortunately I have no Pullman pasa.
If I had one I should undoubtedly use it.
That ia if I had one. I don't believe that
any person pretending to be an advocate
of reform should accept a Pullman pasa
and thua place himself under obligations
to that company. A pasa always places
the holder under some sort of obligations
to the giver. The papera have said that
the governor and some state officers of
Kansas have Pullman passes. I never
saw it denied and suppose for that rea
son that it is true. Any pretended re
former who accepts such favors betrays
his people when he accepts them. I
wish I could den.ouuce such conduct so
loud that I could be heard from one end
of this country to the other."
The speaker raised her voice as though
almost tempted to make an attempt and
added: "I want you to say if you. say
anything, that I have no Pullman pass.
At Puliman I denounced in the strongest
possible terms Carroll D. Wright, the
labor commissioner, who was there with
a Pulltnan pasa in hia pocket. I held
him up to the workingmen as an example
of perlidy, which the workingmen ap
preciated. As a friend of workingmen,
I don't believe in placing myself under
obligationa to the worst enemiea of work
ingmen."" THE JEFF DAVIS LIBEL.
The Alleged Slanderer of His Pastor, Kev.
O. 1. Olden, on Trial Today.
The only case on trial in the district
court today is that of Jefferson Davis the
colored "silver tongued orator" who is
charged with having criminally libeled
Rev. G. D. Olden, pastor of the colored
Baptist church. He charged that Mr.
Olden embezzeled f unda at his former
charge in Chattanooga, Tenn. Whether
the storiea are true or not Jeff talked
about the affair a great deal, lie went
so far aa to have a circular printed and
circulated about town in which the
scandal was told in full. :
Rev. Mr. Olden'a side of the case Is
that he doesn't object to the right kiud of
an investigation but he doesn't want to
be "investigated" by the leader of the
discontented element in hia church.
Eider Barker of the North Topeka col
ored Baptist church was put on the wit
ness stand and questioned regarding the
rule of the denomination when doubts
of the pastor's integrity arose in the
church. The elder replied that the in
vestigation devolved upon a church
council, and that Davis had taken the
wrong mode of having the pastor's
record brought to light.
Davis is defended by J. G. Waters, L.
S. Ferry and T. F. Doran.
JAPANESE POLITICS.
There May be an End of Factions in Japan
Soon.
Washington, Sept. 25. The assem
bling of the new Japanese parliament on
October 15, may be the occasion accord
ing to advices received in diplomatic cir
cles here, of a political union or recon
ciliation between factions which have
been hitherto irreconciliable.
When the last Japanese parliament
dissolved, the leaders of the different
parties were at swords points, but in the
presence of war with a power of China's
magnitude involving the supremacy of
the orient, the old personal feuds have
been set aside and efforts are being
made to have all factions represented
through their leaders in the new Japan
ese cabinet.

FRANK JA3IES IN ST. LOUIS.
He Has
Left the It ace Track
for the
Theater IJusiness.
St. Lotjis, Sept, 25. A modestly
dressed man. wearing a dark brown over
coat over a business looking suit of gray
cashmere, a pleated bosom white shirt, a
polkadotted scarf with a diamond scarf
pin, took hia place at the door of the
Standard theater last night. He was
none other than Frank James, the once
noted desperado, train robber and high
wayman. He was tendered the position
a few days ago and accepted it.
"Yes," said he, "I have abandoned the
race course forever; there is no money in
it It haa ceased to be profitable. Then
there ia another reason why I have given
it up. 1 have a son wlio is now 11 years
of age, and it is natural to suppose
that
if I had continued in the
business he
would have drifted into it also.
"I do not say that the business is dis
graceful; oh no, not that; for I have met
huuireda of gentlemen on the track.
Some of my best frienda are there. But
of course, there are bad ones to be found
on a race course, and somehow or other
you cannot tell why exactly, but these
are the kind a youug man generally falls
in with.
"I have, therefore, forsaken a follow
ing that haa afforded me much amuse
ment and entertainment for his sake.
"In the future I will be in the theatri
cal line, not on the stage but in the busi
ness office or at the door or somewhere
near about where money is taken in. I
have commenced at the bottom round
and expect to work my way gradually
up. There ia money in the business
when you work It right"
"So you will never go on the stage?"
"Never. I have 110 merit in that line
and no sort of practice would make me
an actor. I have had plenty of oppor
tunities to go before the footlights. Im
mediately after 1113- acquittal and vindi
cation. I was offered sfoa.OOO a year by a
New York company but I declined it.
"In tlie future my home will be in St.
Loui3. I am tired of roaming around. I
shall try to find my son a place in a com
mercial house and we will live together.
To make a quiet, steady, sober man of
him, is now my highest ambition." m
ROYS FOR DENVER.
They Beat Their Way and Eat Cold Pota
toes When They Can.
The police thia morning fed three
young, clean and intelligent looking boys,
who had applied for a favor of just that
kind. Two of the boys, Jim and Joe
Davis, aged respectively 17 and 15, are
from Denver, and John Howe lives at
Minneapolis, Minn. He ia seventeen
yeara old.
They met in Chicago thia summer
where they had been loafing about the
streets and doing what little work they
could get to do. They are now on their
way to Denver for the -winter.
There is a board against the wall for
just such people tc eat from, but there
are no chairs and the boys knelt on the
floor and ate their cold steak, and pota
toes, and biscuits, and pie and hot coffee
from a big tin plate, using their fingers
for the preparation.
"How are you going to Denver without
any money?" asked the reporter, by way
of opening the conversation.
"Humph," said one of the boys, "you
must be green. Beat our way, of course.''
"How do you ride?"
"On the trucks anywhere. Get fired
off sometimes, but that don't count.
Course we get separated sometimes, but
we always have a plnce to meet.''
The boys will get a train out thia after
noon or tonight, headed west.
