I'hrttdan JTorW , London , 1 THE GLADIATORS , They Are Not so Heavy as They Might Be , A Small but Appreciative Au dience Greet the Far Famed Sluggers. Contrary to the expectation of a majority of the Omaha sports , the celebrated sluggers , Mace and Slado , came in over the Union Pacific yester day afternoon and wont immediately to the Paxton. Of eonrso every one knows that Mace is an old rounder , ho having been the "world's cham pion" Bomo ten or twelve years ago , Ho went to Australia about eight years ago , since which time hia name has bnoti comparatively unknown in pugilistic circles in this country. The reoont enconntor between Snl llvan and Paddy Ryan has given an opportunity for all the ox-charapiont cf the world tocomoout of their hold and contest cither by word of mouth or by hlppodromatio subterfuges the world-widu ruputation of the now world-known Sullivan. The citizens of Omaha were ap > pr'ssd of the coming of thcao much heralded el ditora yratorday by Prof. Yayer'a bant ) , which paraded thi streets in a wogon drawn by eight horeoa. The public , or at lcnt that portion of it which ventured upon the atroot , were thua apprised that the slugger ; , after a tedious and weary delay ol watching and willing by the peoploj were in our midst. The performance drew n largo and enthusiastic audience to the Acadcraj of Music and rather early iu the evening ing a curious as well as intorcntoi assemblage wan gathered together. Shortly after ! ) o'clock a nowspapoi man waa Been entering the ailoor under the Academy with a rathoi heavy and largo man , "That's Blade , ' said a by-stander , and upon Inquirj it waa found tint It tua he. The re porter followed him up the otaira intt tbo show room. "I cun't nndcratam this bloody country , " oaid Mr. Slado with a atrong cockney accent , aa hi ascended the atairway ; "it acorns t < mo that everything is turned about. ' The variety show which precedet the Hparring exhibition waa of tin usual kind. A young lady well pow dorcd up and with an artificially da volopcd form came out and aan | "When ohe H laid in the cold , colt t rave , " ; \nd annwerod a heavy on cor by singing uomo similar ballad. Dor ing ttna entertaining performance th reporter eought n private box whori Mr. Mnco was found comfortably on scntiBed bntwocn novoral of the per formers , and other ladiea who ha < added lustra to the occasion. MHO la rather heavily built , about iivo fee eleven inches tall , and weighing abou 200 p und ] . Ho ia 51 years old , am until ho went out of the arena , stun eight years ago , waa considered th most scientific boxer , and the hardea hlttor , in tht < United States or in th world. Ho had Buvorul battles in thi country and England , and came ou victorious iu every ono of them , an earned the championship of the worlc Ho is bald on top of his head , and heavy mnstaoha which shadows hi upper lip is colored a sombre blaol which gives MACO the usual appeal anco of people of his class. Herbert Slade , the alleged Auatn Han , and really in all probabilit "cocknoy" Englishman , imported fc the purpose of putting money in hi own and Maco'o pocket , la u wol built man between 30 and 35 years < ago. Ho stands about two inches ovc BIX foot and weighs nearly 225 pound Ho came in the box where Mace wi and immediately entered into an an mated conversation with ono of tt female occupants of the box. "How is it. Mr. Mace , that yc have boon BO long on your way b tweon San Fruiclaco and Ohicag where yon were to moot yonr friom Richard K Fox , and Sullivan , arrange for the fight between Slac and hlmt" asked the reporter. "I have boon delayed on the wi by my frlunds , you know , " ho aa smilingly. "Weren't you to moot Fox ar Sullivan In Chicago yeaterday by a pointmont'i" Well , no , I think not , " ho r piled , "If 1 remember rightly It w to-day. " "Well , BB you are not there to-da when do you expect to got there ? " "Day after tomorrow at the d thest. I shall not atop at any mo placaa on the way. " The reporter asked Mace about tl encounter himself and Slado had h in San Francisco and other place During their itay in San Francis they were thu guests of the Olynij club , which ia uampouid of the pri cipal sporting men of that city. Gt M. Robinson , a local sparror u Slade , and it waa aaid that the fc mor was much too heavy for the i ported fighter. Mace said that ho thought Sla waa much moro than a match for Rt Insou , and he wes atitlsficd that to impartial observer the fight , or ratl the encounter , showed the forme superiority. "Did you hoar that Tom Chandl an ox-prizo tighter , said that SU waa no good and never could be match for Sullivan in a prize figb asked the reporter. Mace said ho had , but had placed credit to the report. Shortly before 12 o'clock an tttcho of the ahow walked upon ' stage and aald : "Gentlemen , I hi A. the pleasure of introducing to you I Join Mace , who for 40 yearn has b A.ho the chief tighter of the world , ho wears the champion gold belt of lie world , " and hero the follow dangle ins bell in his handa as if in corroborat ire of what ho aaid , "and aho anot m. worth 100. " The two thumpers walked dainl on the atago nnd after n fjw scionl subterfuges commenced to pasta c other about the head aud breasl md royal stylo. Slado reached for M first and got in a sounder on the ter'a This seemed to mug amuse at latter and ho plugged the Austral with u solid ono in the loft bro KS From all appearances Maoo got wont of the fust rouud and time CM ft- called. The SLCond round developed c Biddable moro ability on the part of both aa adepts in the manly art and they both sent in the blows hot and fast. Time was again called and Mace trotted back to hia seat and Slado smiled as if ho kuuw ho had the better of the conflict. The third and last round was a repetition of the fust and second although in the wind up Slado put in some rib ticklers which evidently were not relished by the champion. After a akirmi h of two or three minutes the Utter called ont , "I have got enough , " and it was all ovor. ovor.Tho men will loavp to-day for Chicago where they will meet Fox , Sullivan and the other men to arrange the fight between Slado aud the now champion of the country. IIAUY DAHNEH. It will bo remembered that on bia roc ! nt visit to Omaha , Paddy Rjan secured the services of "Baby" Barnes , u well known Omaha boy , to travel with him in the east , and that ho is making a aUr slugger of him will bo soon from the following special dispatch to The Chicago Tribune.

This power , It was said , he had alv possessed , and that the fact was known to lib associates. A Cromley , residing at 242 West Bnren street , became interested the man , and after satisfying bin that ho could , to all seeming , do what was claimed , had him examined by medical men with the object of ascertaining whether the 11 imo was , as Ondorwood himself insisted , produced by the breath or by artificial and cunningly coucnalod means. So far as the teats nave ponu they have failed to domocstrato that any fraud Is practised. Although carefully watched , and BO situated that deception would appear Impassi ble , Underwood produces fiaruo at will , llow it is done , or toi what peculiar culiar condition of his organization hia extraordinary power is duo , has not boon explained. The test that will take pinto this evening is designed to bo more elaborate than any that have preceded It. Underwood will bo prepared for It by the phyeicians , who will adopt measures to effectually neutralize the til'jot of any artifice before fore allowing him to produce the flamo. On Friday evening last Mr. Oaom- ley took Underwood to the residence of Mr. Eageuo IIowo , at 1149 Woat Taylor street , where ho exhibited hie strange faculty In the presence of a few of the friends of the last named gentleman.

The edges ol these holes were surrounded will black , charred linen , while furthei away the fabric was scorched browr as tf by the heat of the burning part "Will you explain how Underwood did this ? " "Certainly. When our friends a * rived ho took the handkerchit f am hold it to his mouth for a while , ant then the flame appeared. " "Was its appearance instantaneous , or did it require uomo time to prcduci the effect ? " "Ho hold the handkerchief to hii month for ono minute and twenty sec ondo before it canght fire. " "Did it seem to yon that any tffjrt was necceesary ! " "Yes , something of the kind. H vras very much exhausted when h got through.
