OMAHA , April 13. To tlio Sporting Editor
ofTiiEBRK : In all the mass of pugilistic
stuff 1 linvo read In tlio dally papers during
tlio past six months I have yet to run across
n ( rood description of Charlie Mitchell and
his past performances. Can't you fjivo us
something of this sort In your Sunday chat
with the tioxcM ? What Is his a'o ( , his
height and measurements , and who has ho
ever whipped or who has whipped him ? I
know you can got us up something that will
prove Interesting Just now ; anyway , what
ever you may write will ho read with much
pleasure by an admirer. Gravler.
Thanks for the bouquet. I will do what I
can , not being over well posted as to
Mitchell's career. It does seem rather re
markable , considering the many sorting
scribes who have had the honor of meeting
the redonntablo Charlie during the past two
months , that there hasn't been something
written of the nature you mention. To
be sure the sporting columns have been full
of stuff concerning Mitt-hell and his
prospective championship mill with Jimmy
Corbott , but like yourself , Mr. U. , I haven't
seen one good pen picture of the fellow or
oven a skeleton of his ring record.
I saw a good deal of Mitchell in Now Or
leans last month , and , like scores of others
who got nearer to him Hum on any of his
previous visits to this country , I was most
favorably Impressed with him , both as a
hamisomo man and u crack-a-Jack prize
lighter. Whilu in New Orleans , notwith
standing ho was invariably In very Kngllsh
neglige , ho was always well dressed , and a
man , whom passing , you could always turn
to got a second look sit. While a big fellow ,
Charley is not east In the same Herculean
mould with Sullivan , but he is his peer In
every detail of Apollo-like symmetry. Ills
torso Is even abnormally largo , but
his legs , wlulo rounded perfectly , scorn
a trifle attenuated for the bulk they
support. Ills head , while large , is not
swelled and is | Kilscd gracefully on a pair of
shoulders of the Atlas typo , thick neck and
deep chest. Ho la a blonde and as handsome
a man as one would meet in a month of
Sundays. According to old time lighting
ethics light-haired men do not make oou
lighters , but splendid thieves , but in this ro-i
gard Charlie is a well defined exception to the
rule , for ho is a lighter of the first class.
Compared with either Sullivan or Corbott ,
Mitchell Is much the superior man intel
lectually , and in the requirements of polite
sooloty can mal o wall ( lowers of both of
them. He Is a good talker , and In his bearing
and conversation gives every evidence of the
luxurious life barring the 1'entonvillo
hiatus he has led. While In Now Orleans
In March Charlie made a big win , that is ho
got about the whole spor'.iiig fraternity , in
cluding many old a vowed eniinicson , his staff ,
evincing'that his diplomacy is not confined
to the sijuaro circle. As a barroom gladiator
ho Is au fait , and can keep a crowd hanging
along the rail longer than any entertainer in
the country.
Mitchell , on his next birthday , will bo 32 ,
having been born in the opening year of the
great rebellion. That ho Is a natural athlete
and lighter no one seems disposed Just now
to dispute. In all his career so much to his
credit ho has never claimed to bo a gentleman -
man , although when In tlio presence of gen
tlemen ho fully deports himself as such. Ho
Is a fighter , so ho says , and that cuts off the
genteel appendage. When in Now Orleans
Mltcholl weighed .JOO pounds , the heaviest
ho over was , and looked to bo growing every
day. Ho told me , howovar , that his present
condition could bo easily razed to 173 by
the time the snow Hies , when ho
expects to give Pompadour .lim a whirl for
the big championship.Vhcu measured
Tuesday afternoon , March 7 , in tliu Crescent |
City Athletic club's rooms , ho stood just
live foot and ten and a quarter Inches , and
his boxing reach showed thlrty-ono Inches.
His chest measurement was a trillo over -10
inches ; biceps , ililji ; forearm , 14 } < ; wrist ,
? > * ; UilKh , 23J4 ; calf , 15 ? ( ; length of leg
from hip , Si , and circumference of the neck ,
Inches.
For actual lighting Mitchell hasn't much
of a record. Ho began his boxing career In
1678 , and his first real battle was as a light
weight. In which ho made a draw with lillly
Kennedy , who then held the championship
of the mothcrcountry. Three years later ho
fought the Dclgiati giant and put aim out in
the fourth round , although his opponent
weighed seventy pounds more than ho.
Ills ilrst notable battle was with
Jack Burke , the Irish Lad. and not
withstanding that the Hibernian had the
best of him two haven In hcicht and twelve
pounds in weight ho fought him , nearly two
hours , the end being a draw. Ho next canio
into prominence as a candidate for John Ij.
Sullivan's game.
This was some tlmo in the early ' 80s , and
n competitive contest was engineered In
Ixindon to determine who was the likeliest
man to cross the pond and give the American
terror a thumping. All the best pugs In
England entered and Handsome Charlie out
classed the whole outfit , innonir whom were
Alf. Greenfield and Tug Wilson. In this
country Mltcholl whipped Mike Cleary easy
and bcatod such well known punchers as
Dom McCaffrey , .Take Kilrain , .lack IJurko ,
Hilly Kdwardsand many others , in Madison
Sijuaro garden he horrified a tremendous as
semblage of Now Yorkers by knocking Sully
down In the Ilrst round of their Ilrst meet
ing. In the second , however , the lilg Fellow
was fast punching the eternal life out of
him , when Captain Williams stopped the
fun. Six years later he met John U at
Chautllly , Franco , in a finish light , London
prUo ring rules. Mitchell weighed U ! . " >
pounds to Sullivan's , ami yet ho fought
iho American champion ton draw , and if the
truth were known , had him as good as
whipped , judging from the infantile task
Corbott had In beating the Ulg Fellow last
September. As I said last Sunday Mitchell's
principal strength as a lighter lies in his
mastery of ring tactics , in his aptitude to
take advantage of another's dereliction or
short-comings , on his dull-dog gamencss ,
quickness , science and strength.
Stanton Abbott , the English lightweight ,
is duo in this country , having sailed from
Liverpool a week ago. I don't know much
about Abbott , save that ho is coming across
ostensibly to take on Jack McAulllTo. In
speaking of the Kngllsn lighters on the day
of the Hall-Fitzsimmons light , the late
Snuiro A biugtton remarked to a coterie of
sXrtlng | men In the rotunda ot the St.
Charles ;
"Wo haven't anything in the 'ovoyweight
line in England , save Charlie horc ( nodding
to Mitchell ) , worth mentioning , nor in the
mlddlo division either. There Is Hitrgo , In
in the lightweight class , but ho is a bravado ,
and Join Carney 'cs stale. Abbott is only a
second rater and wouldn't bo heard ot in a
light with McAullffe , or oven Billy Meyer ,
for that matter. "
So much for Mr. Abbott from a reliable
source.
I neglected to mention In my story of
Grcggains and U.ily last Sunday , that
Mike's prayers and blblo reading did not
save him on the following Tuesday night ,
for Gibbons inllicted upon him u most un
merciful beating.
I was in lilloxl , Miss. , February 28 , and
saw George U.iwson for the Hrst time. Ho
and Goddanl were training together. I had
seen Goddard the previous September , but
learned out little about him. On the occa
sion referred to ubovo , I had quite an ex
tended confab with Dawson , anil after dwel
ling for some tlmo on UIs disappointment
over Uyan's misfortune , ho spoke of God
dard. ' .That follow Is a prodlpy , " said ho.
"ami I often wonder at his wonderful
bowers. You don't know , 1 suppose , that ho
iad a bullet put through both thighs. Well ,
Jie did , und his right leg has been broken
.twice , Ho has been cut with a knife , nnd
hammered almost to deatU with a billiard
cue , and yet U ono of the greatest tighten
Jiving. You can sea for yourself that his
head and face are a net-work of scars , and
if over a man looked at if he had been ruu
through n threshing machine , Jon does. Lick
Smith * It will bo ilka eating bayou oysters. "
"What do you think ho did the other day ?
Nothing more nor less than lick a big bull.
His biiltship was in a pasture over there , and
Joe climbed over the /unco / after a long run ,
and SHV.-I , -I'm poln' to have a little circus
with that bleedln' steer , now watch me.'and
ho made for the hull. The bull didn't like
Joe's looks , so ho turned tall and ran , but
Joe got him in a corner , and In- had to light.
Ho lowered his head , but before ho could
make a move , Joe was Into him , nnd grab
bing him by the fore legs , lifted him to his
hind foot. The bull didn't know what
to make of this of course , nnd ho began going
round and round stlfMcggcd. Joe clung
to his fore legs , and with his gigantic
strength endeavored to throw the animal
over on his side. Now It was the bull , now
Joe , and they swayed backward and forward
llkeacoupio of wrestlers. Ic was a tough
Btmgglc , and I tell you 1 was frightened at
several stages of the game , but Joe suddenly
gavn his hulry antagonist a savage kick on
ono of his hind legs and over ho went on his
side , then Joe ran back and Jumped over the
fence , exclaiming : "I'm going after Evan
Lewis next. "
And the next night Denver 1-M Smith , over
whom poor old One-eyed Connelly once got a
decision , put Joseph out In about the same
fashion ho had bested the bull , and Mr.
Uawson never said another word.
Nothing now during the past few days ancnt
the Corbett-Mltehell battle , other than the
announcingof the fact that both men have put
their lists to the Coney Island agreement.
Tomorrow night In the big club ho-jse by
the sea , Tom Williams , the renowned anti
podean welterweight , and Boston Billy
Smith , will indulge in their Untie conference.
Williams says ho thinks it will bo the task
of his life , and that he wilt take no chances.
Ho has trained faithfully find Is said to bo lit
to battle for a crown. Smith , or Boyle , as
the case may bo , is in great fettle also and Is
fully ready to meet the Australian at his
own gamo.
It will bo a fight.

.lohn.I. Hardin and J. E. Knowlcs were
down at Wauuuncoy last Sunday tlio guests
of Dr. II. G. Caplcs , a gentleman sportsman
and onn of the very best Held shots in the
west. The days shooting netted ninety-two
Wllso-i snipe , twenty-three greater and
thirteen lesser ycllowlegs , fortjeight ducks ,
principally teal , and two clapper rail. And
they claim that the shooting was'nt extra
good either.
Fred Montmorcncy , John Patrick and
Lieutenant Ornoy wereuown on the Nishna-
botna ono day last week , and report capital
sport. They only took -.10 shells each , but
by U o'clock they were out of ammunition.
They had in the meantime accumulated
twenty -four Jacks , eighteen yellow legs ,
thirteen tllt-ups and a solitary goose. By
the way , there Is a story connected with the
gooso. They say it has been hanging around
there for a month , having been crippled by a
farmer when the birds first came in , and
their driver ' -put them on" where the geese
generally camped. So they surrounded him
and commenced shooting , which accounts
for their running out of shells. After firing
away about thirty rounds apiece , they ran
the old Invalid ( town and actually caught
him allvo. They intend to go down again
soon , and say they will take a barrel of
shells.

The breeding interests not only of Ne
braska , but of the whole trotting world ,
were made to suffer In the death of the
premier race stallion , Lobaaco , last Sunday
night , at the farm of his owner , James G.
L'ldd , near Beatrice. The groit ; horse was
sick for two weeks with laryngitis , sulTorin ?
Intensely at times , and it was only by reason
of his marvelous nerve power and vonder-
fnt vitality that ho withstood the onslaughts
of the disease as long as ho did.
Inasmuch as this extraordinary animal
brought to Nebraska a world's record , mak
ing not only himself but the stato. a name
in turf history , ami advertised the bustling ,
thriving city that Is the homo of his owner
as nothing else has over done , It may not he
out of place to dwell at length upon the
most remarkable member of tlio o < ] iilno
family that has ever had a home within the
borders of this commonwealth.
By the sheer strength of his hvlividiiil
performances , ho had achieved fame tint
almost removed him from the ranks of the
brute creation , and had Mwcomo ono of tin-
Idols of the breeding world. Thus it
was that when the news of his
probably fatal sickness was ll.ishod
from one end of the country to the
other , telegrams by the hundred pouivd in
daily upon the owner , expressing sorrow because -
cause of the situation , and voicing the wish
that the stricken champion might recover.
Lobasco was bred in the famous Blue Grass
region of Kentucky , nnd as a yearling was
taken to Iowa , passing into the hands of
Mr. Ladd as a 4-year-old for $12,5'JJ. .
His turf career extended over a pariod'
of four years , and was a remarkably brilliant
ono , as In all that tlmo ho was never behind
the money but once. The greatest race of
his lifo was at the St. Joseph meeting last
fall , when on the 14th of September he de
feated that gr at trio of fast ones , the cray
gelding , Jack , the bay marc , Una Wilkes
aud the black stallion , Grattan , for a purse
of $2,000. He was laid up in the Ilrst heat ,
and was then sent for the money , taking the
second , third and fourth heats in ' - ; ! ! ' < , ,
2:10W : and 2:13 : , thus capturing the world's
stallion race record In the third heat of a most
hotly contested struggle. In the last heat ,
the others had been ruled out , neither hav
ing taken a heat , and the HnUh was between
Lobasco on the one hand , with his superb
courage and wonderful finishing power , and
on the other hand the gamoy gray gelding
possessed of equal speed and with the re
doubtable limit ! Dohlo behind him. Such
was the character of the light ho had to
make , but he was equal to it and ho brought
back with him to Nebraska a champion
record the like of which Is not and never has
been held by any othcr , state.
Lobasco was drh'on ! into Beatrice Satur
day , March 25 , by his Owner and placed in a
livery stable over night , while Mr. Ladd
went up to Lincoln on business. A
window heedlessly left open by a care
less hostler occasioned a draught , in
which' the animal remained through the
night , and it was then and there tint the
fatal work was done. The horse was driven
back to the farm Sunday morning , and it
was not noticed that there was anything
wrong until ho reached there , when ho re
fused his food. 'Unfortunately , a veter
inarian was not called at the time , as it was
regarded but a temporary indisposition. On
Monday , the throat'as so swollen that the
horse could hardly breathe. Poultices were
applied , but apparently did no good , as the
horse was unable 18 cat or drink and could
with diniculty got his breath. Dr. Hobin-
son of Beatrice was callt-d out , but was
unable to alToiti any'relief ' as tlio malady
had become seated ; and on Tiiesday the
horse "choked down" several tilnes , stag
gering and falling because of inability to
get breath.
Dr. Hamacciottl of Omaha was telephoned
for on Wednesday mornlngand hurried dpwti
on the uoon train. The horse had been given
up , but tracheotomy was performed and a
tube Inserted in the windpipe. At that time
the temperature of the animal was 100 } ,
but the operation seemed to afford imme
diate relief , for the horse at once went to
sleep. It was impossible to get anything
down the throat , and medicine was admin
istered hyperdermically , while nourishment
to keep the suffering champion alive was
given by moans of rectal Injections. Milk ,
eggs and brandy converted into an eggnog
was all that could be used. The horse tried
hard to drink what was offered him , some
times strainlnir so that the fluid would pass
through the air passages and run out of the
tube in the windpipe. Ho would stand some
times for half an hour with his nose In a
basin of egg nog or gruel , and at the end of
that time would hr.vc been able to drink less
than a pint of It ,
Tlio only medicine that could bo given
through the ordinary channel was quinine ,
which was thrown far back on the tongun ,
and was then absorbed. A great deal of
that drug was given and it had a good effect.
The steam bath was also used , a blanket be
ing so arranged as to partition off ono corner
of the box stall , and behind It was placed an
oil stove on which was kept a vessel of boilIng -
Ing water , The Intelligent animal would
stand there with his head over the belling
water for an hour at a time , with his head
resting on the bar placed there for that pur
pose. Ho also frequently used this head
rest to relieve the strain on the overtaxed
muscles. As ho grow weaker ho was less
able to support the head , increased In weiirht
as it was with the live or six pound tlaxseed
or cranberry poulticei , and whenever the
strain became unendurable ho would walk
over to the corner and place his head on the
rest.
rest.Tho disease was ob-itinatc , but It yielded
to the treatment , and on Saturday the horse
was able to swallow. There was a prospect
of the recovery of the animal when the
veterinarian left there , and that ho did not
was duo to the rupturing of a blood vessel in
tlio lungs. Tno horse had not laid down
during his week of sickness until Sunday
afternoon , when ho was assisted by the
attendants. He remained quiet about half
an hour , when ho suddenly sprang to his
feet. Ho remained on his feet during the
rest of the afternoon , but again laid down of
his own accord. He sprang up quickly a
few moments later , and In 11 vo minutes was
dead , suffering a hemorrhage from the lungs.
The lungs him become weakened by the con
tinued strain of attempting to breathe while
the throat was closing during the earlier
part of the week1. While lying down the
breathing became difficult and the horse
Jumped to his feet' tp'obtaln relief. Consequent
quent to this overexcrtlon was the rupture
of the enfeebled Organ and the fatal
hemorrhage.
Judged by any ti'ltfrlon Txjbasco was a
great horse. As a physical specimen of the
equine race ho was a beauty , what ho was
as a performer his record shows and of his
Intelligence and kind disposition a volume
might bo written. ' Children were always
welcome visitors in liM box , and pettlmr and
caressing were nlm6tit ? as necessary to him
as his oats. Ho 'vn' ' * not addicted to the
many little annoyinVr'tHeks ' that are so com
mon with the natur.it horse , and even after
races , when so many 010 sour and peevish ,
ho was a's good natinWl as over and enjoyed
the attention of visitors.
Mr. Ladd hasowlii-d1. * great many horses ,
some of them among"l.1io host , of which num
ber Counsellor may be mentioned , us ho was
sold by Mr. I-idd for ? 22,000 , but ho says ,
with tears In his eyes , that ho never saw a
horse llko Lobasco , and never expects to sco
another. There seemed to bo something
akin to real affection between those two , the
human and the brute , and during the sick
ness of the latter the man shed many a tear
of genuine sympathy as ho sat in ono corner
of the box and watched the suffering of his
dum friend. They understood each other
perfectly and when out on the road together
the veteran of three score years was wont
to converse with his horse as ho would with
n child. Frequently in approaching lown
the owner would suggest that they "had bet
tor put on a little moro style , " and the hand
some head would bo raised , the graceful
neck arched , and the great llowing r tall that
literally dragged the ground would I bo I spread
over the crossbar to show all to the best
possible advantage.
The horse had been worked so much on
the track and had such a long stride that it
was hard to Jog him up or down hill , and

sometimes in joRRins on a down urade ho
would mix in his nait. if on such occasions
Ladd reproachfully askedIs : that the
best you can do ? ' ' the question would bo Im
mediately answered in a way far moro con
viiicmi ; than any words would have been.
During tlio sickness of the horse the old
man frequently remarked that if th' ? latter
died ho did not believe that he would him
self llvo a month , and the belief has fre
quently been expressed by those familiar
with the situation that to lose Hobasco
would break the owner's heart. Ix > basco
earned for his owner last year the hamisomo
sum of 812,000 and promised to do as well
this year , although U was not the intention
of the owner to again campalzn him until
next year. Mr. Ladd was Intending to take
the horse to the World's fair in order that
ho might bo seen by the horsemen of the en
tire world.
The services of the horse were In great
demand by breeders all over the country-
anil his death called for the sending of telb
grams to Tennessee and Wisconsin to stop
the shipment of two carloads of choice
marcs that were booked for the season
hero.
Air. Ladd is said to have received a cash
offer of 6100,01)0 ) for the hcrse , but it is cur
rently understood among horsemen that the
olTor was just half that sum. It wiis made
before the horse made his great record at St.
Joe , and was refused. The would-be buyer *
then asked Ladd to put a price on the horse ,
hut this ho declined to do , stating that the
animal was not for sale. Soon afterward he
won the champion race record lor
stallions , and the anxious horseman
who wanted to get possession of him
again waited upon the owner and
insisted that a prleo bo put upon him , but
Ladd once moro refused. It was understood
at the time that had the price been lixed at
$75,000 the horse would have changed owners
on the spot , while some Insisted that there
would have been no haggling had the llguro
been considerably higher than that.
Every man , woman and child in Beatrice
took a personal interest in the horse , and
their pride was manifested whenever his
name was mentioned. Whenever ho was in
the city a crowd Hocked to see him , and no
stranger's visit was complete unless ho was
driven out to the farm to sco the famous bay
whirlwind. Traveling men shared In the
common interest , and public talk was of a
character to dlstrcdlt the idea that the
horse was private property.
Mr. Ladd still has liepuhllcan , a horse
that promises all an ordinary man could ask ,
but thi ) owner , while appreciating all his
good i > oints , heaves a sigh and says : "Ho'll
never bo llko Lobaseo. " .
