bteu ripped and worn through in no less

been mended.
The littlo fellow carried a heavy canvas

such protection.
When cither of the boys sot a job he would
kneel down and go to work in a vigorous

coolly ask for 10 cents. ....

en d Hitch In, the AleAnllOeOalr F'ght.
The idea of establishing a 1 1,000 cnomploh
ship stoke is creating a great deal of excite
mont in sporting circles and meets with
almost universal commendation. Lovers of
fair play and of tho American principo of
giving every body an equal chaneo indorse it
unanimously. The autocrats, of the prize,
ring, tboso who liaTe made raonoy and don't
care to risk losing it and thoir reputations, of
course, ero not in favor of tho plan. Their
argument isfthat if a challonger cannot raise
83,000, ho is, as thoy express it, " no good, "
If a champion has so poor an onlnlon of a
challenger's fighting ability, it seems some,
what paradoxical that he should be unwill
ing to meot him in the ring and knock htm
out in one round. Tho following are a few
of the opinions expressed :
Mr. Arthur T. Lumloy. of the New York
UlutiraM AVim Tho idea is a good ono and
should be adopted. It is acoordlng to the
regular rules of tho ring, boforo tho prosont
system of glove, and what might bo called
circus-fighting was introduced, and should
be adhered to.
Billy Edwards A man who won't fight for
91,000 is not looking for a fight. That is a
reasonable stako and gives a poor man a
show. Why, how many fighters are thero
who can command that amount of cash
Very few, comparatively, and the ohomptons
know it, which is why they put their figures
bo high.
Barney Mogul re I think if a man really
wants to fight he will fight for 91,000. You
see, tho admission fee charged could easily
be made to bring the amount of money to be
won up to the desired sum. The reputation
of pie ohampion would insure a big price for
the tickets.
John McDonnell If a ohampion is chal
lenged to fight for $1,000 ho should accept or
forfeit the championship. I( he is so suro
he can win. he could make a good deal of
money betting 10 to 1 on himself. Besides,
there is always the purse, and this could be
brought to a good round sum by exacting big
admission money.
V
The much talked-of and! eagerly onlici.
Dated fight between Jack Kenny and Austin
Gibbons, which occurred last night, was a
surprise to tnsny. The betting before the
fight was two and threo to one ou Kenny.
Clihbons had his man beaten from the start.
Ho greatly orormatched Kenny, being a
couplo of inches taller and weighing twelve
pounds more. Ho was in the very pink of
condition, and at tho olose of tho fight
looked as if he could hate stayed in tho
rlug threo hours if necessary. About tho
sixth round Kennv saw he stood no earthly
chaneo, and tried to lose on a foul. Ho suc
ceeded lu the teuth round, but only by hit
ting Gibbons after the lattor had extended
his arms horizontally when commanded to
break by the referee.
The sympathies of the crowd, and also, by
the way, of the roferoe, were plainly on Ken
ny's side. But Kenny's style of fighting is
vicious. Ho will not break away in a clinch.
He did not fight the squaro, straight and
manly way Gibbons did. But then, as he
was so much smaller, this may bo excused
perhaps. The little chop was pretty badly
punished, too. Tho elaret dripped in a
steady stream from his nose to his chest, and
he had a great welt under each eye. Gib
bons showed but one mark, and that on the
left aide of his chest. He told n friend just
before tho fight that ho was too much for
Kenny, and that he would tiro htm out and
then sail in. Kenny was not in good condi
tion. It tv as Gibbons' first fighf with skin
gloves, and ho used his hand as if thev had
on boxing gloves. Ho cannot in-fight at all,
lint with more practice his wonderful cool,
liens should render him a formidable light
weight. V
When the intention was announced of pit
ting the winner of the Kenny-Gibbons fight
against Iko Weir, the Belfast Spider, it was
thought, of course, this would hu Kenny. It
wil) be impossible to match Gibbons against
the Spider, as the lut'.cr is even lighter than
Kenny.

" Yos, dear," he replied, " I know that. I
daro say I am very foolish; but I do love you
so."
Ho was thinking of the fate that might bo
awaiting her, To-morrow was her birtbdav,
aud to-morrow sho might be lying dead. He
triad to dismiss the thought from his mind.
"Why should sho be murdered sho who
has not a single enemy in tho world ?" argued
Hope. "But then," ropliod Fear, " what
had Geraldlne Ulverstone done? Why was
sho chosen as a victim? If she was mur
dcrod, why should your darling escape?"
It uasan unxiout timo for him, and the
anxiety laid its impress upon his spirits.
Evelyn accepted Fred's explanation, al
though she was convinced there was some
thing more, to bo explained, but she kept her
doubts to herself and said uothing more.
The entrance of her father, a somewhat
careworn-looklns ntan of sixty (Evelyn bad
no mother), followed by Col. l!anflecl,
moreover, cot short all further conversation.
Evelyn sprang up with a cry of delight as
sho saw her godfather.
"Well, my little ono; but this I must call
you no longer, for you have become a woman
sinro I last saw you," said Mansfield, taking
both her hands iu his nnd kiuing her on her
forehead,
"Yon may coll mo what you liko, Uncle
Lai" with her ho was always Uncje Lai,
although they wore in no way related.
" But what a long timo it is sinco we hut saw
you; whera have yoa beep atl these years?"
"That, mv dear, would take weeks to tell;
but I hope before I lsate again to havo time
to toll you all that has happoued sinco wo
last met. "
' Before you leave again ? You muttu't be
talking about leaviug. Why, you havo only
just come, and this is the first lime I havo
seen you for five years. "
' ' I hope;to bo able to stay till the end of
the year. In such case, with your permis
sion, I shall see you often; but, to be frank
with you, I may have to leave at auy mo-raeut-perhaps
ctcu tp-inorrovv. "
"To.morrow," mid Fred aud Lvelyu lu
oue breath, and tho txpreisou 0u the oung
mau'x faao was one of the greatest alarm. Ho
had couiuced liimttlf that the only chance
of his darling's eafety lay in the proUcton of
Col. Mansfield ; and now he, who might bo
able to save her, was going away..
CANT SCOOP JEFFERSONIAKS.
Congressman McCarthy Itemtrnted of tan
Pablo of the Frog nnd Ibfl Ox.
r ( Hilar la. Xttatae ir..M
In your issuo of last evening I notico a
statement that the Jefferson Olnb of tbo
Fourth Assembly District has been " scooped
by the wily McCarthy."
As, owing to your extensive circulation,
this statement is likely to mislead a host of
the f i lends of the Jofferson Club, I bog to
stato that tho Club has been, is, and always
will bo composed mainly of gentlemen who
are perfectly independent of politics a a
means of earning a litclihood, and cannot bo
" scoopod " by t'ougrcssinan McCarthy for
his personal benefit.
It is trtio tho JetTorson Club picked tin Mr.
McCsrlhy nnd elected him from one office to
anothor till at Inst ho hascomo to tho conclu
sion that ho is greater than tho Club.
Tbo Congressman sbuiild read that littlo
story lu Aop's fables about the frog and
tho ox, nnd rcjlcot upon the fata of tbo frog.
Ho may think tho Jufforsous nro dead, but
when next be nimear before tbo peoplo for
their suffrages ho will find it a t cry lively
corpse.
Unplug that you will givo Huh a place fn
your icry popular journal, I remain yours
