TOE COMING FISTIC BATTLE , Dempsey and Fltzslmmons Will Fight for the Middleweight Championship. SIXTEEN THOUSAND TO THE WINNER , The Mntcli Ke&nnled ns Ono of the Greatest Evrr SInilo Something of the History of tbo Two Men. Jack Dcmpsoy nr.d Bob Fitzshnmons will decide the middleweight pugilistic cham pionship of the world Wednesday night. The match Is looked upon as 0110 of the greatest over mndo. It was arranged by ttio Olympic Athletic club of Now Orleans , and the battle will bo fought under the itusplccs of that or- canlzatlou. Many thousands of dollars will bo wagered on the result , and prominent sporting men from all over tbo world will witness the dispute between two pair of fa mous fists. The purse Is $12,000 , the largest over fought for , of which the winner will re ceive $11,000. In addition to this $ . " . .000 a sldo has been wagered by the principals , so that the victor will clear § 10,000 for bis night's work. No pugilist living Is better known than Dempsey , * "Tho Nonpareil. " During his ring career he has engaged lu forty-llvo battles and only once mot defeat , Dempsey's friends for the llrst time seem to think thcra Is n prospect of his defeat. Ho U certainly going against big odds. Fltzsiinmons , who stands fully 0 feat 1 inch , is n rawboned fellow , has u tramen- deus reach , is strong as an ox an J 11 mh llttlo or no trouble in lighting t nay weight. It is apparent , therefore , that Dempioy has the worst of It In the matter of Height and reach , but what the ' ' .Nonpareil" lucks lu these two respects ho will undoubtedly muko up In the way of using both his bead nnd his foot , which heretofore have always played an important part In nil ot tho1 champion's battles. IIo Is unquestionably ono of the greatest generals that over stood in a ring. Ho Is a cleverer sparror than FiUslmmons and has a long reach , but It Is not to bo compared with that of the Now Zcalondor. Whllo the latter Is. said to DO awkward ho is trlpky and a hard hitter , and has a way of getting HITO nnd doing so very quickly , too. What makes Dcmpsoy's friends afraid , however , Is n belief that lho "Nonpareil" Is not the man ho onca was. His defeat by La Blanche , while un doubtedly an accident , 1ms nevertheless shaken conlliionco in Dempsey n little , as It proved that there was a possibility of his de feat , despite bis phenomenal career In tbo ring. ring.Tho The easy way In which Fltzslmmons de feated Billy McCarthy In tbo California club Is well remembered , At the time n great deal of surprise was expressed that It should hnvo taken Dcmpscy a much longer time to iinish McCarthy than It did Fitzslmmons. The ' Nonpareil , " however , Is not by any means a /nst lighter. His style Is that of worrying his opponent down with occasional loft and rifht banded jubs that have tolling1 effect In a long drawn contest. As ho has frequently stated himself , ho is not a knocker-out , but n llnlsb lighter. HO does his men up' gradually. Dempsey's judgment and wonderful endur ance have been great factors In all his battles. It Is not , as anile , until a tight lias progressed for some time that Dampsoy's superiority ever his opponent becomes cleuily upp.iront. Ho Is much better in a llnhh light than in a limited round contest , and is better with bare knuckles or skin gloves , than with largo gloves. If his battle with Fitzslmmons waste to be with the "baro 'uns" instead of with largo gloves , Dompsoy's frlejids "ivould feel that the victftry.of the Nonpareil was almost a certainty. Dempsey is also bettor under Louden prize ring rules than under Queens- berry rules , because ho Is such a flue wrestler. Pitzsiniinons Is certainly , a re.markublo fighter. The easy and rapid manlier in which ho polished off Arthur Unhnm is another ovl- ' dcncoof that. It is true that Upbnm. ii a very inferior man , and that Bill McCarthy , tno Australian , is by no moans a great fighter , still the remarkable ease and rapidity wltti which the Now Zealander conquered both of them shows tbatho Is no ordinary fighter. Jack Dempsey was born on the famous Cur- ragh of Kildnro , in Ireland , on December 15 , 18(5 , ' . Ho was but a stripling when his parents loft the old country to rcsldo In America. Ho shied his castor in the ring in 1884 against Billy Dacey , and Dempsey was thought to bo far outclassed. The battle began at 4 o'clock a. in. and was over in llftv minutes. Dacoy got a terrible thumutiu : nnd had all bis cham pionship aspirations knocked cndwiso for many days. The noxUtlma Dempsey stepped Into the rlnir ha was facing Tom Henry , an Englishman. The battle occurred In John Thompson's theater in Now York and was a most desperate ono throughout ; each man re ceived a bloody smashing and both were badly off at the cud of tbo mill. Dempsey looked like a whipped man after tbo fourth round. JVt that titno Pat Shccdy , who was betting on Dempsey very heavily , crossed ever to his corner and , touching Jack on the shoulder , said : "Well. Jack , old man , I guess it's all up with us this pop , " and Jack , looking up nnd smiling , said , good-humoredly : "You haven't seen mo light yet , bill watch mo now , " True to his promise , ho wont sav go- ly at his adversary. At the end of the sixth round Henry looked ns if ho had been shot out of a cannon. The tryst lasted about twenty minutes. Dempsey was now a full- fledged champion , and his idolizors could bo counted by the hundreds. On nil sides Dempsey was thought Invincible , and few men went airainst him in tbc bopo of doing better than either getting a draw or winning tbo small end of the gate. Doinnsey now thought ho'd make a trip through the country , and with this end in view went to Now Orleans to fluht Charles Blxamos. They battled for live roucdswhon Blxaraos , who was a game man , was put out. Jack wont to 'Frisco , whore ho nnd Mitchell engaged in a terrible tongno-lasuing , which resulted in nothing. Dempsey defeated sev eral men while in 'Frisco , among them'Jim Carro. His naxtcngagemcnt was under Lon don rules with Kooniin , nnd It was most des perate. Jack won two ether tights while west , nnd tbo Pacific slope people looked upon him as a thorough hero. Arthur Chambers' enmity grew lu proportion tion to Dompsey'R ' conquests , nnd ho searched the country to Und u conqueror far his bated foo. Jlo pitted Jaok Fogarty ngalnsl him , and cleverly hud bis man trained and it lit form. A terrible licht occurred. Jack winning In Just two hours , witn a badly bruised hand and the supromust contempt for the man who would have him dismantled of the clonk of pugilistic glory. But Dempsoy's greatest buttles were hli ) first and second meetings with George I n Blanche nnd his great scien tific show "with Donovan , the cleverest , of the clover men In the middle-weight , brlgado. Dempsey met La Blanche at Lurch in out , Long Islnnd , ono cold morning lu February , 18SO. This mighty fight , lasting thirteen rounds , marked ouo of tbo most despurato ring encounters of modern times. Dompsoy's ' generalship was superb ; La Blancba was wild in bis hitting and Ill-tempered. Betting at the ring sldo was In Dempsoy's favor. When the battle was over LU Blanche was heard to say : "IIo will light mo again and then I'll lick him , suro.1 Dempsoy's llrst surprise occurred when ho faced Mike Donovan. This was only a boxIng - Ing affair of six rounds. Strntg.it counters and cross-counters were as plentiful as flowers in spring. Donovan opened b punch ing Jack on the nose , and surpnsoa tlio Non pareil a moment Inter by punching him in the stomach. Dempsey for once bad faced a man who could hit with' any ono. McLolluu's conqueror was too crafty and too hard a bitter and Dcmpsoy did well enough to draw. This was his first repulse - , pulse and It disheartened him. Tbon the Non pareil mot La Blanche a second time in San Francisco and , true to his prediction , the Marino scored a revenge for his Long Island dofeat. The tncn fought thirty-two rounds , with the advantages In favor of Dompsoy. Then Jack was knocked cndwiso by a swingIng - Ing right-hander , and the 15,0000 which ho thought ho could win from La Blanche was lost to Uim forever. Novcr bofora or since did defeated man talio to heart so much his failure to win us Jack Dempsey did on this occasion. The Marino stoutly denied tbo Nonpareil a chunco to rocoror lostground and ducats. Jack next met and walloped Charles McCarthy. Ills flcht with Kltzslmmons Is his first engagement to a finish since that time. Fit8lninona U also twenty-debt years of tige nnil wntfTbohi In England , The followIng - Ing account of hj puRlllsllo career Is In bis own vrorasi/yMr first nppearnnco In the ring was at JenYMnco's amateur boxing tour nament nt Tntnnru , Now Zealand , ten years ago. Mace was making a tour of the colonies nies then. 1 succeeded In knocking out four men that nfutiif wlnnldg the amateur cham pionship of Npm Zealand nnd a gold watch. The next ycnr'Maco visited us again nnd gave another tournament. I then knocKed out five men In ono night , sustaining my title of champlon.il lllftor defeating the flvo men I put oti the gloves with Herbert Slado , nnd to the surprise of everybody present , bos ted him. After stoppluc ; , Slado , , Mnco and I were going to wind up tbo evening's entertain ment with n 'friendly bout. Wo put on the gloves nt\d \ sliook , bands , nnd were about commencing to spar when wo wore greeted with such nslbfni of hisses that Mace thought It would better to talco off the gloves. The audience thought that Mace was going to try to knock mo olit , * when In reality ho only Intended - tended to show mo a few points In boxing. All of these bouts were foughtundorMnrquls of Quocnsberry rules. I next fought Arthur Cooper under London prize ring rules , de feating him in three rounds. Then came my fights with Jack Murphy and Jim Crawford , both of which were fouirht under London prlzo ring rules. I defeated the for mer lu four and tbo hitter lu three rounds , knocking thorn both out. After this I loft Now Zealand and went to bydnoy , sparring for the first time there nt Lurry Foloy's Athletic ball , where I ' defeated Brlstncad , n heavyweight , la two rounds. IIo weighed 170 pounds to my I4"S pounds. The fact Is , I never fouirbt nt over 148 pounds until I came to the United States. I next defeated Jack Oroeiitrco , a middle weight , In three rounds. Dick Sandal , who , after 1 loft New Zc.ilunil , got to bo amateur champion there , was tha next to meet me. 1 defeated him lu four rounds. Then I defeated Bill Slavln , n brother of Frank Slnvln. I bested him In seven rounds. I then fought Eager , who * recently foutrht a draw witn Starlight , tbo colored middleweight cham pion of Australia , ami , though ho were threo- ounce gloves whllo I had on clglitounce , I beat him In three rounds. I defeated Conway - way , champion of Ballarnt , In three rounds. ' Aly next battle df importance was with Dick Ellis , who w.is and is now considered a good one lu Australia , ho having fought three draws with Lang.tliowcll known Maori heavyweight , two battles being under Lon don rules and ono uuder Quoeusbcrry. Ellis weighed 170 pounds nwlnst my 143 pounds , but I bent him in three rounds Just the sumo. I next fought Jim Hall , champion middle weight of Australia , for the championship , defeating him In flvo rounds. Then I fought Starlight , tbo colored middleweight cham pion of Australia and champion of Queens land , knocking him out in nine rouuus. My last fight in Australia was with Professor West , a beavyxvelght who used to exhibit through Australia , advertising to knock any man out In four rounds. 1 knocked him out in two minutes. Coming to San Fran cisco , I Immediately got on a match with Billy McCarthy to light at tbo California athletic - letic club. I fought him with hut very little training , ns I had been in the country only fourteen days when wo met , knocking him out In nlno rounds I could hnvo llulshod him in three rounds , but wanted to give tbo club members a show of sparring for thnlr money. My last flirht up to clatowas ivlth Arthur Uplmin. I defeated him In flvo rounds at tbo Audubon club , Now Orleans. Of course , I liopo to ndd Dempsoy's ' nnino to the "list : but then I haven't ' defeated him jot and ho may provo to bo too much for mo.

AN irvQUlSlTlVI'i FISH. \ Ilhiclc Coil That Wittulics Pivcrs nt Work. Mnny intorcstincr utorios are told by divers of their experiences at the bottom of the son , and the curiosity manifested by fish is ono of the tliomos on which they dilate with satisfaction , wiys the Vancouver News-Advertiser. Tlio fact that certain species of llah are of an in quiring turn of mind lias been proven beyond - yond all doubt , and n , circumstnncn in connection with the repairing1 of the water pipos-in the Narrows adds confir mation. When Divers Llewellyn and McHurdy first began work on tlio broken mains they observed a fish whieh-lookod as if it belonged to the black cod species hwimming about thorn nnd frequently going in and out of the broken pipe. They did not pay much attention to it on the llrataiul second ( lays , but when on going down tlio third day they saw it closely oxaming the pipe they were then work ing on thojr betran to give it moro con- uidoratioti. On the fourth day ho was again at tlio spot , nnd they there and then dubbed it the iiibpoctor. It WUB always on the spot , either when the divers got there or it came immedi ately afterward and remained till they wont away again , and during the titno they were at work it observed thorn with the most serious nttontion , always shifting its position us tno divers did theirs , in order tlmt it might observes exactly how things were done , The men on tlio Htoamor becaino very much interested in it and always made inquiries when the < livora came up as to whether the inspector specter was satisfied with the work dono' That it does not stay about the spot except , when the cllvorj nro there and that it knows the time of their ar rival , is shown by the fact that on threo' different occasions when they had to go back unexpectedly the inspector specter was not thero. Ho always turned up next morning , however , as usual. For seventeen days now the inspector hn9 boon watching this job , and if any future accident should occur , ho will , no donbt , apply for work nt the company's olllco , Anyone doubting this statement of fact can hnvo it verified by Mr. Nixon or by tlio dlvcrd , Llewellyn and Mcllnrdy.

An old cap tain , in roliitfng hia oxporlonco , tells itow the dog wns chased all over the ship , but could .not bo cuptorod or shot. The sailors tried to lasso the brute , but failed. Tlio loop was always too largo or too small , or it slipped tip too soon or not BOOH oiinugh , so that wo could nc- complish nothing. "Our attempt. * , " n.nld tlio captain , "served only to irrilnto the rabid mil- mill so that lie was now perfectly fran tic. leaping , howling and rushing about in a terrible manner. Jus , as wo had begun to despair of effecting anything in this way wo honrd a shout from for ward. It WHB the volco of Little Key Drew , the ship's bov. " 'Hello , thcrol' fia fluid.

"Aa WQ flood in the shroud * , the ship's fore and main courses , which were sot , prevented us from seeing the bov , but \vo could ousilv judge of his position and his Intention also. " 'Look out for yourself , Hey ! " was the cry from more than ono volco , as all realized the fearful risk that ho ran. " 13 ut the llttlo follow had his plan. Ho made a great Hlainplng and shouting and the dog , which hnpponud jiibt then to bo well forward , luincil upon the topgallant forecastle.Vo who were in the rigging hurried down to the deck , no longer thinking of any danger to ourselves , and then the whole scoijo wns before us. Key had run out along the bowspait and jibbootn , nnd the dog , which had stopped for a inomont to bite and tear the staysail netting , which was in his wuy , , vas trying to follow him. The upper sldo of the bowsprit being flat , the mad animal could easily trav erse it. but wo did not believe ho could bo able to walk on the jibboom. To our great alarm , however , wo svw : him dush out upon it without fulling. It was a surprising and startling sight. ' "Rov , Hey ! ' wo called , 'tnko care of yourself quick , quick ! Don't lot him got hold of you ! ' "But the hid was prepared oven for this. Away out on the end of the boom ho stood with his hand on tlio Hying jib- stny , and when tlio dog was within a few foot of him ho grasped the hoops of the sail which were around it and wont up the long rope like a squirrel. The mad dog made a sort of half-leap as if to roach him , staggered , lost his balnnco and fell with a splash under tlio ships ] bows. Wo ran forward , nnd , looking over , saw him struggling in the water. "Probably the sudden immersion throw him into ono of these convulsive fits so common ' in tlio rabies , for , after a few minutes of violent tumbling , ho sank outright and wo saw no moro of him. " DARIiIMG , I MUST LiI3VV13 YOU. A Buffalo Hello Discovers I for IIus- 1m iid to be n Curiosity was greatly excited in a cer tain s.olcct circle of society in I3ulT.nl o , N. Y. , recently by the return to her father's house of n young lady who , a short time before , hnd boon married with much cclnt to a gentleman in n largo western city , says tlio Now York Morning Journal. Friends at once called on the familv to learn , if possible , thocauso of the sud den renouncement of the fair bride's vows , but were only told that for goo'fl reasons , which they did not propose making public , Mrs13. . had loft her husband , and requested henceforth to ho called by her maiden name. A few on- torpribiug souls , however , refused to bo thus kept in the dark , and devoted themselves to ferreting out the mystery , which they now say involves the follow ing romantic story : Some years ago Miss - was aroused from sloop ono night by n burglar , who having broken into the house , was stand ing at her bedroom door. She Hcrunmod at the sight of him , and ho ran out of the hoiibo so , quickly tlmt she did not have time to see his face. The young lady at the titno of this occurrence was only a school girl , but on her arriv ing at womanhood a suitor almost immediately made his appearance. Presenting the highest testimonials ns to his standing in the west , and his finan cial prosperity , ho was received with much favor the ladies'1 by young par ents , and she herself was much ploasco with the gentleman , who continued t ! > woo her with such ardor that she nt last consented to marry him and accompany him to his distant homo. They were very happy until her lius- ind , in a lit of conildonco , confessed to her that ho was the burglar who had broken into her homo years before , and that as > ho watched her lying asleep had fallen madly In love with her. On ilco- ing the house ho had resolved to win her for his wife as soon as she was grown. Ills papow of introduction , etc. , wore all foiyjonos , and , instead of tlio \vliolosulo lumber dealer ho had repre sented himself , he was a noted house breaker and conlldonoo man. The lady , at thosounlookod-for revelations , fainted away , and on recovering announced her intention of leaving him forever if ho did not at once premise to renounce his mode of life. This ho refused to do , nnd though closely watched by him and deprived of money , ? he succeeded in escaping from him , nnd actually bogging her way , managed to get as far ns Cleveland , whore she had relatives , who fur nished her with ineaiiB to reach her parents , tier husband has written im ploring her to return to him and prom ising complete reformation , but her people - plo have refused to credit any suoh In tention , and have sworn to shoot him on night if ho makes any attempt to even see hor. The lady says tjmt lie was a most devoted husband and a gentleman by birth and education , and connected deyond a doubt with somu of the boat families in the east.

Ho repaired with it to n hill of Inrgo red nuts which he hnd passed on his trump u short time beforo. In the mid dle of the hill ho deposited the tnrun tula , releasing It from its Imprisonment. It was a rather chilly dny and but few nuts were out of their holes. Jlut these few gathered around the stranger , looked nt it closely for a brief moment nnd then one by one hurriedly entered the different small holes within which were their domiciles. The tarantula meanwhile was motionless , occasionally blinking' itn tmv.ill , bhurp eyes , but not deigning to ghineo upon the small in- bccls. But presently came forth the ants in a body. Although the tale-bearers had entered the hill by dllToront holes , tha wnrrlora till issued from the smno ouo. First came a large nut and then the oth ers FO closely upon the hoolst of ouch Jr\ \ othov that the line looked Hko a bloort- rod string. The sldo of the tarantula wns nbout four inches froia where the nntrf honed from the cone , and they mndo straight for the enemy without loss of time. The largo ouo in the load pounced upon quo of lho furry logs nnd the others got their teeth in us near by na possible. There scorned to bo an almost unending string'of'tho ants , nnd in a minute and a-htilf the entire body of their victim was covered with them. After that the tarantula scarcely moved. At llrst it attempted to pull away the lop attached by the ants , hut ( hiding it fastened it shoved along with the itlsongag'od lops , moving- perhaps an inch nnd a half , but the ri intiindcr ot its body WUH boonctvvej ' with the insects , which devoted part their forcotolioldintrtho victim in place. Tlio tarantula only killed three of tlio nnts. ' These three ventured within roncJi of the jaws of the lariutuliwhieh ; : closed its mouth with n snap , ending their ex istence instantly , In four minutes the tarantula was dead. There was not a sign of blood nnywhoro on its body , though in mnny places were evidences of the fray. Near the lioud were scars showing where the nnts had bltton deepest. Shortly alter it closed its oycs and allowed its bend to sag muny of tlio ants withdrew , but when there woe a convulsive jerk of ono log the nnts rim up again , and this time remained till , every sign of animation wns gone. Then the nnts removed the corpse. It was a heavy body to remove but thGy accomplished it. On lho rather lint top of the hill the pull was hnrd nnd long but on tlio incline it was easier. Ar rived at the foot , the nnts dc urlod the corpse and returned to thcii' houios.
