PETER JACKSON.
Barricaded with Planks.
Eight hundred members of the Pelican
club were packed close around tbe ring at
midnight to watch the contest No strangers
wore admitted except three friend* of Jack
son's. Five time* as many people stood out
side and were kept in older by a pome of
police. The entire front of the club building
was barricaded with strung planks.
The Spart» Who Were There.
Jem M«oe, Bill Goode, Alec Roberts, Dick
Roberts, Jem Carney and But Mullins were
on band to see tbe fight, and among others
were tbe Marquis of Quae us bury, Lonls
Lonsdale, Lurgan, Deerhurst, Dudley Gran
ville Gordon, Esma Gordon, De Clifford
Uandeville, Thurston and many officers of
the army and navy. The American maulten
of the club present included Clinton WInans,
Charles Ollaey, W. J. King, Walter Gogne
shall, Harry Marks, Ned Fox, Maj. Noah,
Tom Burthlde, Eugene Stratton, Pony Moore
and Murrey Bohlen. It was nearly 1 o'clock
before the referee was decided upon. George
Vlze, of tho Clapton Boxing club, waa se
lected for this place, and Messrs. King ond
Bettison, ex-amateur champions, were the
judges Capt. Archer Drummond was tbe
time keeper.
How the Men Looked.
Both tuen were looking very fit a* they
leaped into tho sixteen foot ring. They
were greeted with
cheers. Smith

Jlra Hau» was also on hand. Jackson was
seconded by Fitzpatrick, his Australian

"Strong Boy." The colors of each champion
were fastened to the stakes in their respect

own likeness in the center and a dark bine

for the encounter. Jackson was tho favor

perior height and reach.
The First Round.
Then another half hour was wasted in a
squabble between tbe seconds to gat Jackson
to take off the belt he wore. He refused to
fight without it. Smith finally gave in.
Then it was found that the gloves bought
for Jackson were too small. Others had to
be substituted. At 1:20 the men shook
bauds again and squared off for tho first
round. In this Jacksou did tho leading, the
fighting being fast and furious. Each man
was apparently bent on knocking the other
out as quickly as possible. Smith's blows
were delivered on tbe body, but Jackson
gave him no rest, following him all over the
ring. Both indulged slightly in hugging.
When time was called Hmith was in tbe
worst condition. Betting bounded to 3 to I
on Jackson.
Smith*« Wlckdd Foul.
In the beginning of the second round Jack
son did »mo powerful hitting, Smith scarce
ly making a single return. Ho hugged the
ropes with tho right, trying at time* to get
in his left Finally bo closed, and, back
hoeling Jackson, be threw him. Tbe Utter's
seconds claimed a foul, as wrestling and hug
ging the rope* were expressly forbidden by
the article* of agreement After silence was
restored the referee awarded the fight to
Jackson amid some groans which wore al
most drowned in the loud cheer* that fol
lowed. Smith glared like a savage bull
when he realized that he was a whipped
man, and giving way to his temper for an
instant wanted to attack Jackson with bare
fists. Lucky for him he was restrained, for
Jackson was a trifle angry, too, and would
probably have given him a sound thrashing.
Then 8mith declared bis intention to chal
lenge Jackson to fight with bare knuckles,
but Jackson's manager will not permit him
to accept. The verdict of the referee was
heartily approved by the club and also, to a
great extent, by Smith's friends,
crowd outside cheered Jackson as he drove
away.

rei>ortod that twenty men are missing from
this ran '.', and it is feared that aimiy of
them will never lie found.
Jolly and Wise, two of the companions of
Martin and Miller, toll a heartrending story
of their sufferings. When the blizzard struck
them on Wednesday night of last week they
were holding a herd of a,.UK) cattle. The
wind became a hurricane before morning,
and when Martin aud Jolly went on the last
guard about 3 a. ui. the storm was so blind
ing that they could not bold the herd, and
Jolly started to the camp for help.
In the mean time Miller aud Wise had left
the camp to assist in holding the cattle.
Jolly could not find the camp, and Millor
and Wine could not find the herd. All three
were drawn together by shouting, and
wandered around until daylight, when they
found Martin.
The cold was so bitter that tho men en
tered a ravine, and after fastening the horses,
took tho saddle blankets and buried them
solve» iu a snowdrift. Jolly and Wise were
slightly apart from Martin and Miller, and
early Friday morning, when they emerged
from tho drift, Marlin only was in sight,
and he wag dead. Miller was found shortly
afterward, his horse standing iu front of
him, os it to protect him from the cold.
Miller was dying from exposure, and Jolly
started to get assistance. Wise remained
with Miller, aud was fast Incoming insensi
ble himself, when a Mexican sheep Uerdur
found him and took him to Rhode's ranch, a
few miles distant. Tho men returned to
where Miller had been left and found him
lifeless.

Baltimore, Nov. 11.—"A century close*;
a century opens." A hundred years have
come and gone since first a bishop of the
Catholic church was given to America. A
century of time has been added to the («st
since the creation of the See of Baltimore.
Th* centenary of tbe church was celebrated
Sunday in a manner befitting tbe occasion,
Admission to the cathedral could lie gained
only by tho tender of a card of invitation.
Every available bit of apace within was
utilised, yet thousands of (toupie had to be

E. Antoquara Qillow; England, by Bishop
John Virtue, of Portsmouth, aud Monsignor
of London. All of the archbishop* in the
United States wore in attendance except
Kenrlck, of Ht Louis, who is too feeble to
travel, and nearly all the bishop*.
An Imposing Procession.
The students of Ht Mary's seminary and
the priest«, local and visiting, collected at
Bt Joseph's academy on Horaloga street,
and the biabo|ai assembled at the archiépis
copal resilience on Charles street, where they
donned their purpl* vestment*. The procas
■ion of 15U seinlnarle* and 4,000 priests in the
order named, two abreast, started from tho
rendezvous at 10:30, searching down Sara
toga to Charles to the archiépiscopal house,
whore the prelates fell in line in this order;
Cross hearer, Ablsits, monsignori, bishops,
archbishops., the papal legate and Cardinals
Gibbons and Taschereau. The procession
then continued up Charles to Franklin, to
Cathedral street and into the cathedral.
The aumiumrians and prisais occupied camp
chairs In the slslea Tho archbishops and
bishops wer* seated within the chancel. Car
dinal Gibbons, Cardinal Taschereau and
Archbishop Hatol 1 i occupied thrones. That
of tbe latter was drapud with the papal col

Areliblshop Ryan's german.
It was 12:45 p. m. when the "lie ml*»
sut" was said. Then Archbishop Ryan, of
Philadelphia, ascended tho pulpit and
preached tbs sermon, taking his text from
Ecclesiastic.!* 1, 1, 2, 7, 14. Th* sermon
was one of retrospection. The archbishop
welcomed the representatives from the
holy sec, from Canada, Mexico and Eng
land. This was as a religious union of
all the Americas, and he trusted it would be
but the beginning of a still more intimate
union in the future. Ireland, Germany,
France end other European countries were
well represented in their children aud
descendants among priests, prelate» and peo
ple. It was iu truth a great historic Catho
lic celebration, calculated to gladden the
heart of the present successor of the founder
of tho American hierarchy and the hearts
of bis brother bishops and priests, and to re
joice and console the pontiff himself. It whs
a celebration that ought to deeply interest
the thinking men of all denominations or of
no douomination. At the beginning of tbe
present century the church's unity and
catholicity was adapted to a state of society
world.
new in the history of tbe world.
A Great Political Catholicity.
Up to that time men legislated for a single
people of the »me race. The fathers of this
republic bad to form a constitution for
•very race. They had to combine a political
catholicity with n political unity. Ho, also,
before tbe establishment of tbe Catholic
ekurcb in this world, religions were national
in their organizations and adapted to people
of the same race. But the church was des
tined to embrace within her government tlie
peoples of every nation aud bold them there.
And in no country hod she to exercise this
power as here for nowhere el» were they
found together. The organization of this
government and of tbe church were, there
fore, striking and suggestive coincidences.
Ho believed that before another century
thoughtful men will see that this wonderful
catholicity and unity will prove a most pow
erful auxiliary fur tbe perpetuation of our
political onion. Ho compared Bishop Car
roll In ths church to George Washington iu
tbe life of tbe republic.
Archbishop Ryan paid a glowing tribute
to the tint bishop aud gave a sketch of his
in.-.
Kpeaking of the suppression of the Jesuits,
of who» order Carroll was one. Archbishop
Ryan said Carroll knew that no society, no
individual was essential to tho church's ex
istence ; but he believed that it predisposed
Carroll in favor of that great principle in
the American constitution which declared
Hint the state should not interfere with re
ligion.
The Charrh Not Kdoeatloo'fl Knemy.
In reference to tbe charges that the church
fears »jene« and is the enemy of education
he spoke at length. He said the last to fear
intellectual progress was the Catholic. He
knew that truth is one—that God oannot
contradict in the revelation of the Scripture
what He exhibit* in the revelation of sci

feared the progress of science and education.
Carroll acted in harmony with tbe spirit of
the church, therefore, when ho founded
Georgetown college, and the Catholic bish
ops were now acting in the »mo spirit in
founding the Washington university. The
charge that tho laity wore priest ridden
every Catholic knew was fai», and ho hoped
that in tbe congress this week the laity
would speak out fearlasly and freely.

iu the great questions of the day affecting
tho church and society. He closed with
prayer for the continued success of the

Archbishop Ireland, of 8t Paul, preached
the urmon, which dealt entirely with the
future. He said the great work the Catho
lics of the United Btates are called to

A Note of Warning.
Iu conclusion, the s|ioakor sounded a note
of warning against a favored aristocracy in
the church, uihiu whom so much enro is
lavished that none remains for others. "The
strength of the church today is the people,
who are held by their intellect and heart,"
said the speaker. "Wo have a dreadful
lesson to learn from certain European
countries, In which, from weight of tradi
tion, the charcb clings to thrones and classes
and loses her grasp upon the people."

Mrs. Parsons and Her Red Flag.
Chicago, Nov. 11.—The feature of tho

utter lack of the enthusiasm which generally
characterizes the gatherings of the Anarch

executed Anarchists, and scarcely half of
those listened to tbe speeches. The speeches

The lawyer« in the Vanderbilt building
who are conducting the cane for Mme. Mod

voluminous eorretpondoiiJ* whiob panned
between tb© activa» nud Mr. Booth. Mjno.
Modjenka i* alleged to have repeatedly urged
Mr. Booth to mi ra-o her from her contract,
a« whe found their relations unbearable aftoi
his conduct toward her. It 1« certain, how
ever, that the Philadelphia inaun^on«, Zimr

in active œinm urination with Mod

und from this it is surmiued that thoy are

of the actress Iroai Mr. Booth.
Whjat Ollier Actors Think.
Mine. Modjeska I nu» been singularly free
from scandalous report« during her long
and prominent career on the stage. Theat
rical people w ith whom I talked on the sub
ject think Mme. Modjeska 1« not satisfied
with the artistic employment ap|K>rtioued to
hor and tho com;>* usatiou allowed her by
Booth and Barrett, and that she desire*
either a release from her contract or incroaea
ofj «aUry. The press criticism* of Mr.
Booth'« performance« speak of the loss of
interest iu his acting and the perfunctory
manner in which he performs his «tage
duties, while th^y accord to Mme. Modjeska
Agate** Modjoflk»** Protest.
Modjeska op.ned her New York engage
ment with Booth m an unsatisfactory role,
und although the public clearly »bowed that
it did nut car* for "Richelieu," the drama
was kept on the boards three weeks, against
Modjoska's ^protest and as a detriment to
her reputation.
It U possible that all this together has
prompted Modjeska to the action she k said
to have undertaken. Neither Mine. Mod
jeska nor Manogvr Arthur Chase could be
found. Tho people at the Broadway theatre
had strict orders not to give their addresses
to anybody.
Mr. ISootlt Was Nuu-Commltal.
I called at the Players' club, on Oramercy
park, and Mr. Booth received me in*com
pany with Super In tendent McGoimlgle. 1
asked him If there were any difference* he*
iwetfii him and Mme. Modjmkn.
"If there is, 1 do not see that it concerns
tho public," he replied.
"Have you at any time, Mr. Booth," I
asked, "done anything that could have led
Mme Modjeska or Count Bozonta to think
that you imagined that Mme. Modjeska
would favor you more thua would any
woman who wtu for tne tune being your
partner iu butuue^sf'
Mr. Booth smiled as Hamlçt would. He
thrummed hm fingers on the arjn of hia
chair, reached ovef to an open cigar box*
took a cigar and lighted u del it irately.
Then bo said :
Ills Love Making Day« Over*
"Mme. Modjeska first came to my houso
to §"e my dau hter, before Mrs. Booth's
death. 1 met her then. Since our business
arrangement l have mot her on the stage
only.*'
1 asked Mr. Booth plainly If he had ever
conducted himself iu such a way as to givw
offense to Mine. Modjeska.
"My dear sir," Mr. Booth replied, knock
ing tlie ashes from his cigar, "my dear fel
low, Mme- Modjeska and 1 are old enough
to have grandchildren. My love making
days off the stage are over."
