NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—Jim Jeffries and Jim Corbe*"* will meet in a twenty-live round bout March 15, for the champion ship of the world. '"Billy" Brady, man ager of Jeffries, and Corbett had a talk lately and agreed upon the fight on that date. This sudden decision was the result of a statement made by Brady at the Dela van hotel to the effect that he would let Jeffries fight both Corbett and Tom Sharkey inside of six weeks' time. Cor bett, as soon as he learned of Brady's statement, hunted him up and claimed that under the agreement between H:em he was entitled to first chance. Brady thought the argument a good one, and the date for the battle was set. The club offering the largest purse will get the fight. Both the Coney Island and the Broadway club.-j will bid for the bat tle. WILL MEET SHARKEY. Jeffries Is willing to fight Sharkey with in thirty days, but, as Corbett will be given first chance, this will necessitate a date further off for the sailor. The only stipulation Brady made was that O"Rourke is not to remaan in the sailor's corner during the fl&ht, nor enter the ring. Sharkey is at Hot Springs doing some light training in anticipation of a battle. • . Immediately on leaving the hotel O'Rourke telegraphed to Sharkey, asking him whether he would accept the boiler maker's terms. Manager Brady said that Jeffries was tired of being called a cow ard, and was anxious-, to settle .the sail or' 3 championship aspir;fons as soon as possible. 'I am willing to bet any amount of money," said Brady, "that Jim will win within ten rounds. We. don't want O'Rourke in the" ring, and if the propo sition I made meets with Sharkey's ap proval the fight will take place." "FITZ" AND M'COY MATCHED. Fitzsimmons and MeCoy have practical ly been matched to fight for the middle weight championship. The pair met. and after an extended conference Fitzsim mons assured the "Kid" that he would give him a chance in the near future. McCoy Is near the middleweight title. He has defeated all the legitimate aspi rants for the honors, and is now anxious to tackle the champion before he pro ceeds to the heavyweights. The "Rid" believes he can defeat any fighter in the world, including Jim Jef fries, and after he has disposed of Fitz simmons he will take on Jeffries. Although defeated by Jeffries, Fitzsim mons is still the recognized ehawplo:i of the middleweight division, and McCoy realizes that he will have to defoat "Lanky Bob" to clinch his claim to the title. The fact that the AusUalian is willing to give McCoy a chance will assure the sports of another great battle. Fitzsim mons intends to protect his title, and when he faces the ''Kid' 1 the latter will encounter the toughest proposition of his career. At present Fitzsimmons is matched to fight Jack McCormac.k In Philadelphia, Jan. 20. This is only to get his hand in line again, and in a short time the for mer champion will be ready to step into the ring with Maher's conqueror. The contest, if arranged, will probably take place next spring, when it will be possible for the fighters to fight out of doors, so that pictures can be taken of the contest. Fitzsimmons would prefer to have pictures taken of the fight, as he believes it would be a good financial Investment for all concerned. INTEREST IN LITTLE FELLOWS. A fight that is attracting interest the country over will be decided at the Broad way Athletic club next Tuesday, when Terry McGovern, the little Brooklyn box er, and George Dixon meet for the feath erweight champioHshlp of the world. McGovern hau come up rapidly in the pugilisiic world, and has made such a re markable record in a short time that he Is now a pronounced favorite in the bet ting. McGovern is also much younger than Dixon, and this has no doubt influ enced the bettors. Terry was seen to day at his quarters on Jerome avenue. He said he was in the best of condition, and ho looked it. Dixon, too, says he is in the best of shape, and quite confident of keeping his tiile. Tom O'Rourke has bet $1,500 even that McGovern will not win in ten rounds. He has several thousands more to wager that Dixon will win, provided he can get good odds. M'GOVERN TO WIN. That I» the Plot of New York Phrenologist^. NFW YORK, Jan. 4.—The craniums of George Dixon and Terry McGovern were examined today by phrenologists. After a careful examination the experts did not hesitate to predict a victory Tuesday for the wonderful little hurricane fighter from Brooklyn, Terry McGovern. This assertion is based on the superior dynamic force of the Brooklyn boy, as shown in the length of his Jaw from the opening of the ear to the tip of the chin, the thin athletic cheeks and the round ness of the back of the head, the most trustworthy sign of muscular energy and ambition. The examiners discovered that the organ of cautiousness is not strongly de veloped in Dixon. This fact is likely to bring about the Waterloo of the colored champion. In his coming fight with Mc- Govorn he will endeavor to avoid the heretofore invincible rushes of the Brook lyn fighter, and caution will be one of the prime requisites of Dixon in this battle. The admirers of Dixon, however, may gain comfort from the fact that his head and physiognomy show wonderful deter mination and resisting power. Hi 8 per ceptive qualities also are well developed and he will know what he is "up against" the moment he sees his adversary in the ring. The phrenologists expressed surprise that men of such different temperaments should be engaged in the same mode of making a living. They expressed the opinion that McGovern, if he wins at all will defeat Dixon in a few rounds. Of McGovern the opinion was as follows: "Terry McGovern must have come from a remarkably sturdy ancestry. He has grit and wiriness in an intensified form. His shape of. head is very different from that of eGeorge Dixon, and we should ex pect to find the work of the two men cor respondingly varied. McGovern has the motive temperament in predominance. "His muscles must be as hard as iron, and his head Indicates that he has a large development of destructlveness, comba tiveness and firmness. Hence, when he hits he will hit hard and straight, and his knuckles will have strength to make his stroke felt. "We should judge that he could do more in one effort than most pugilists could in double the amount. He is a man who 1b very direct in hts work: He haa no adipose tissue to get in hia way. Every fibe^ tells the story. "The development of h!s aide head indi cates that he possesses power to work THE ST. PAUI, GLOBE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1900. out a mathematical calculation with re gard to the result of his work with lightning speed. He cuts clear of all for mulas. "McGovern has not so much of the vital temperament as has George Dlxon, and, while the latter will know how to ward off an attack, he will have to be partic ularly on the alert to be equal to the direct work of such a man as McGovern. , "Dlxon would like to take preliminary movements and parry a while, as they do In fencing, but McGovern has no use for that kind of work, and evidently will make sharp and short work of his effort." TOM AND TOM ARE OUT. Sharkey nud O'RonrUe Will Not Speaik as They l'ns«. HOT SPRINGS. Ark.. Jan. 4.—Tom Sharkey received a telegram from Tom O'Rourke, in which the latter expressed indignation at Sharkey's statement that he did not care to have htm in his cor ner in the event of a fight with Jef fries. Sharkey said he cared nothing for O'Rourke's friendship and could get along very well without It and, further more, that he would be his own mana ger for the next fight. Division of Chess Prize*.

First Baptint Congrregratlon at Ita Meeting; I.:is< Mulit. "A beautiful spiritual love feast" was Deacon J. C. Hoblltt's characterization of the regular Thursday night prayer meeting held at the First Baptist church last night. When asked if there was anything in any way bearing upon the late unpleas antness in the church concerning: the criti cism of the pastor. Rev. Riley, brought up, the deacon said: "There was nothing of the sort, sir. I haven't ever attended a more glorious prayer meeting. Our pastor led the meeting and all present were in harmony. The meeting was as well attended as any that has taken place in years." Another member of the church stated to a reporter that every person at the meeting represented and could be counted the friend of Mr. Rlley. TO TEST CLEARANCE SALE LAW. Mn nd iwn in* Proceeding* Aj;aln»t Auditor Johnson Looked For. County Auditor Johnson haa received an intimation that a fund is being raised by persons interested In tax titles and certificates to prevent the holding: of the spring clearance sale by mandamus proceedings. A law passed by the last legislature pro vided for the absolute sale of property on which taxes of 1897 or prior yeara are delinquent. The sale is to be held after the regular delinquent tax sale in May, and absolute title is given the buyers. It is argued that thene is a flaw in the law. »«•••< <••0«««0*..#9...•c99»«*....,•«$ The California Limited Flnast train west of Chicago. 52 hours from JCftnsM City to Lot Angel**, via Santa P# , Route Pullman Dining Car, $uf f«> Smoking Car (with barbar shop), OWvatioft Oar (via UuliM' parlor) Vostibuled and El»otrto-Hjht es throughout », Pour tlmei a w*ek-— Wed* neadavi, Thuf»4fty4, Friday. a«d Sundays « *00 a, ft, from Kansu City.

Admiral Dewey's declination to visit St. Paul for "carnival week" has not hindered the progress of affairs in the least. Though considerable disappoint ment was expressed at the result of the effort to secure his presence, the directors met at once and planned other attrac tions. At a meeting held yesterday aft ernoon it was decided to treat the city to an old-fashioned ice palace time again, with ice palace, illumination and aIL Since the carnival proposition was tirst agitated there has been a considerable sentiment in favor ,of the construction of an ice palace. " Thipj' directors decided at once that the city could celebrate without an admiral, If necessary, and unanimously voted 4 ta'-build a palace in the old style. A'committee, consisting of C. B. Bowlby.'^. n. Stem, the carni val architect, and pow Smith, were ap pointed to decide >on » v location and ar range plans at once.: T. F. Smith wai appointed chairman of the finance conimitCee, and has called a session for this afternoon, at which subcommittees will be appointed and the work of securing^' funds mapped out. The plans will so through with a rush from now on and .efttlre harmony had been secured. The ige palace scheme met with greater^Tfavpr than any plan previously announced* "by the different members of the association. While the. choice of a location has been left with a committee, itr is probaWe that with th« consent of the park board the palace will be constructed in Smith park, using Sixth street, from Wabasha to Sibley, as the main thoroughfare and approach. As far as the plans have been matured they call for the construc tion of a large Ice palace similar to those built during: previous carnivals, and the erection of an Inclosing wall of loe around the site. Inside of which there will remain sufficient space for all dis plays. On the street leading up to the Ice palace pillars of ice will bo con structed, around which will be wound strings of electric lights to furnish even ing illuminations. A careful estimate of cost shows that the ice palace can be built for the same amount of money as the Olympia, court of honor and es planade planned for the Dewey fest. The committee has a second location in view, at Jackßon and Tenth streets, where a frontag* of 1,110 feet is obtain able, with a depth of half a block. m Desertion Is Alleged.

The tendency to piles had disappeared totally. She is very grateful to her husband's friend who first brought Ripans Tabules to her attention. In her case it was found that one gives relief- 5
