I > .ivls and Joe Choynsky strode into the arena and took their stand In their corner , so recently occupied by the lamented Mr. Hines. This quartet was followed by Lmoflt lloobcr. Frank Hoatworth , FlUaltninous' nparrlnR partner , and Martin Julian. ! itzslminons1 backer , who took the diagonal corner across. Lewis presented the appear- nnco of the model athlete , weighing 18. " > . lloobcr , although dubbed tlio German Her cules , looked much smaller , yet only lacked seven pounds of LowU' nvonlupols. Lowls winning the toss , the llrst bout was catch-as-catch-can.Hcfcreo Duffy announcing amidst faint applause that the stranglo-hold was barred. Hocbor looked moro like a beer jorkcr than a formidable opiwncnt of the Wlsconsonlan's prowess , and the crowd unanimously settled the contest In Lewis' favor before ho stepped out on the mat. ItorhorliuiTlRltt lox , The men shook hands , retired to their corners and were Introduced by DulTy. The pong then sounded and ttio contest begun. There was a brief walk around , when the athletes took hold , Lewis cjulfkly side-stepping and getting Hocher down. He worked vigorously for his favorite half-nelson and hammer lock , and the Ger man was kept busy preventing him. The Strunglcr finally got there , and by tremendous deus strength plowed I ho Herman's head along' the mat half way urroas the arena , finally forcing his shoulders toward the mat , but Koeber squirmed out of his dangerous ] > o.stlon. ! Lewis did nil the work and novel- was llocber the aggressor. Lewis secured a wrist hold and half-nnl- son and almost the hammer , but again Itoobcr wriggled out of danger. Won tlio rirnt Tall. Lewis gave the doughty German no tlmo to rocunerato , and before the crowd could fairly reallzo It Lewis had him in a iK > sition Irom which there was no escape. Lewis wound his sturdy logs about the reeling torso of his struggling nil versary. pinned his left wrist to the mat and by the half-nelson brought him to n bridge and slowly but surety bore him down. The throng of excited men fairly lifted thereof roof with their shouts. The bout lasted seven minutes and llfty-slx seconds. Just before Lewis and Hoebcr entered the ring a telegram was handed Kouber , which read as follows : I'lflliAliKt.t'iiM.l'n. , March 2. Ernest Ilopbor , Olympic Club , Now Orlcnnt : Ho cautious , nmko him do the work , don't let tliutu raltlo you. Good luck , and \vlro mo the result. \VlI.MAM MUI.UOO.V. In explanation , it is but necessary to men tion that Hilly Muldoon , ex-world's cham pion , and Lewis have been deadly enemies ever since the night that Lewis mads Mul doon quit In Chicago. Ever smco that mem orable night Muldoon has been hunting for a man to down Lewis , but up to date his search has been In vain. l.oivlx VV'ns Too Strong. At the termination of the ten minutes the gladiators were back in tlio ring , this bout being Grtuco-Homan , at which lioober is supposed to bo the master. There Is no clasping below the hips at this style and no tripping. Lewis showed the effects of a good nib down , while Hoebor looked softer and flabbier than over. Lewis was nude save , n black breech clothwhile lioober wore black tights and old gold socks. After a brisk skir mish Hoebcr got Lewis on all fours , then flat , out Was unnblo to accomplish anything. The Stranglcr was too quick , too strong and too agile for him , and was quickly upright again. There was another stretch of fruit less effort on the part of both , but Lewis finally closed behind , and quick as a Hash ho had the big German on all fours. He pained n right half-nelson , and it looked like an other down , but the German , , by a bit of clover shoulder work , bumped Lewis ami gained his feet. This work occupied ten minutes. Both men were glistening with perspiration , but while liocber blowcd and puffed Hko an oceanic monster Lewis seemed ust fairly enjoying himself. AVm u < ilorli > us Struggle. Kocber slipped to the canvas and the Strunglcr was on his back Hko , a panther. Hoobcr got a neck hold , but this was what lidwls seemed to want , for Hko a flash ho got the half-nelson and all but secured another fall. A moment later Uoubcr was again upon his feet , only , however , to bo rushed off them again before ho hud time to demonstrate ) his supposed superiority off his pins , A cloud of steam instantly arose from athletic convoluted bodies. Lewis shortly allowed Koeber to slip his baclc hold , and Rocber was the upper man. The German essayed the hammer lock , but failed. It was a cyclopean struggle , in which all the thrilling climaxes of championship com bat were wrought out. First it was this hold and then that , hut llnally by sheer strength Lewis lifted his bulky antagonist Into the air and throw him oft. They were up lu a momentwhcn the German again had Hvun down and by a full-nelson came within a hair's breadth of gaining u fall. Got n Full from I.owln. Lewis broke this deftly and then took a turn on top himself. Ho strained for the double-nelson , but couldn't make it , and at the hammer lock ' ' , owing to Kocbor's'saturated body , ho was equally unsuccessful. Again lioeber got the upper , and though ho iiad a half-nelson it availed him nothing. By a plecoof muscular work seldom seen in un athletic area Koobor suddenly secured n half-nelson and shoulder , tugged and by superhuman bulldog persistency forced Lewis' shoulders to the canvas. The cheering at this accomplishment was a veritable uproar. Tlmo : Twenty-eight minutes and twelve seconds. Strungler Cutting In Ills Work. Lewis opened the third bout catch-as- catch-can , by picking lloobcr up and whirl ing him around , feet in air , and dump ing him onto the canvas , both points down. It was a clover , undeniable , palpable living fall , but Kofereu Duffy was thinking of his loosa point and failed to see it and refused to allow it. Koeber then retrained his pins , but was quickly dashed "prostrate with Lewis astride his buttocks. Again ho was up , and grasping Lewis about the loins throw him straight up Into the nlr , but when ho alighted the German was under neath. Both were on their feet , and again Lewis stands the emperor on his head and all but ended the bout. Lewis Juggled the German and all but Jerked him limb from limb with u cracic and shoulder hold. Ho fairly ripped the canvas up with the Teuton's bullct-liko head. The strangler banged and slammed and Jammed Germany into the sawdust , and against the posts until the big crowd expected to see him left limp and lifeless in the ring , out Koeber always managed to got out of the tight place until Lewis pinned hit right arm to the mat and twining his naked legs about the small of Koober's back ho bore him over and down until Duffy throw up his hands and oxclalmed , "Lewis wins the third bout in twelve minutes and nine seconds. " Wrmtllnc for 1C cop 5. The fourth bout was Gruieo-Koman again. A little fiddling and Koeber is on his hands nnd knees , with Lewis on top. The posl- tlons are quickly reversed. Then again Lewis is uppermost. Again upright , only to co to the mat , Lewis holding the vantage. Ho falls llrst of a single , thcli the double-nelson and again they are locked , standing. Ten minutes are up , and Lewis will have the naming of the style if a fifth bout is necessary. After a tcrrltlo struggle , by upright hold every muscle , every sinew nnd tllicr being strained to the fullest extent , Koobcr goes down and Lewis gets a half-nelson , but falls to bring it to an issue , as the Gcruian writhes loose and gains the top position. Ahammccand half-nelson Is broken , and the muscular Harnnyvillo lad puts the German over , A half-nelson and arm hold almost settled Koobor , and in tact ho proba uly touched both points , but the ref eree falls to see and he gets away. ICocbcr'i Second Full. Lewis is angered by this and ho rushei at the slippery German and dashes him , like a bucket of mud , to the mat. Again ho es capes. The next Instant Lcwlsola down and under. Rocber gets a half-nelson , then the hammer , but it is no go. There is too much iteel la Lewis'corded muscle. lioeber gets the double-nelson and all but downs the champion. There Is an uproar , the audience tiding with Duffy , who proclaims no fall. They ore bead w head again now , with Itocwr on top. lu foiling him Lewis lays la tlio ( Icrnmu'fl arm nnd the florman's hand lers , claim n foul , which li disallowed. The next Instant by n double-nelson lloo- IKT conquer * . Time : Twenty-four mlnutos and forty-threo seconds. l.nwlft Still'Champion. It Is now horse and liorso , but the next liout Is at the American champion's own Btylo , cntoh-ns-catch-can , as ho has downed the Teutonic klmr In less time than the khiK downed him. The scenes tint followed Kocbor's success In the last bout wore excit ing In a superlative degree , the preponder ance of the crowd rather favoring the for eigner. The men shako hands for the final nnd de cisive test. There is a momentary strugplo upright. Lewis nails the German's thick neck with his right , nnd locking hh left leg around the German's right , he up ends him In wink of the eye nnd Koeber's shoulders are Jammed into the mat and the champion ship of the world belongs to Evan Lowis. This was accomplished so quickly that the crowd could not realize It until Duff.vs' arms were in the air and McMillan and Choynski were pulling Evan from his vanquished ad versary. Ilynii AMIIIns lo I'lulit. If excitement is the quantity sought for by the average stranger In Now Orleans ho is getting his money's worth this morning , nnd all on account of the prospect of witnessing a battle between Tommy liynn nnd George D.iwson after all. Notwithstanding tonight will witness the In augural events before the Olympic club In the finish light between McMillan and Hines and the championship wrestle between Evan 1x3wis and Ernst lioeber , the solo theme of talk is in the prospect of bringing llyun and D.iwson together. Kyan has been unmercifully , but unjustly , roasted on all hands and last night was in a mood of dcspondiMiL'y that boded no good to himself , and a close watch was kept over him. him.At u late hour ho called Ludaker. his brother-in-law , nnd Prof. Kooinson and his physicians to his room and resolutely an nounced that he would llglit Dawson today , tomorrow or at any other tlmo for any sort of stake , at any condition or under any auspices or circumstances. Ho de clared ho felt better and n hasty examina tion by the physicians demonstrated that the swelling had about disappeared , and that after a fashion ho was able to go } about. His attendant , fully realizing the ugly position in which Tommy was placed , consented to his demands and at once hus tled off to see the Dawson contingent. They were found In the St. Charles this morn ing , and after a long wrauglo that resulted only in disappointment and renewed hard feelings , Itynn's backer demanded that Billy Madden and Bookmaker Humphreys naino their own terms. Kyiin' * Otter to Fight. Upon their falling to respond to this liberal privilege , Prof. Koblnson said Kyan would meet Dawson in a finish light before either one of the clubs Hero next Thursday night for a side wager of $ ' ' , .r > l > ! ) and whatsoever purse might bo offered , Kyan to weigh in at the ringside tit 14'J , and Dawson to go In at catch weight. "Kyan , " ho added , "has a very bad ankle and ho is heart broken , yet ho says ho thinks ho can whip Mr. Dawson , even with the handicap , and If ho Is mistaken ho is per fectly willing to have his head beaten off. " Still the Dawson party held back and Mad den then Intimated that It would bo unfair to allow Kyan the two pounds asked , notwithstanding that Kyan con sents to the Australian going in at any weight ho sees proper , so it begins to look as if the D.iwson contin gent had no faith in the clncti they had so loudly claimed. Kyan's offer Is a foolish one , but It is better that ho light Dawson , even If compelled to let the latter use a meat cleaver , than leave Now Dr'eans ' with the stiirma of coward plastered all over him , and I think they will light. There Is such a unanimous demand for it that there scorns to bo no escape from a collision. Oulnn Very Confident. I met JohnQulnn , Smith's backer , at the St. Charles last evening , and ho said : "Say , Sandy , I want to post you a bit. Do you know that Ed has never been properly trained for u light in his life , until now { Well , it Is n fact. . Ho was in fairly good llg when ho went against Peter Jack son in Chicago , and ho made a most awfully good showing. AVhcn ho fought jcorgo Godfrey ho was way off , and would iiivo looked much better in a hammock than he did in a ring. The light was delayed ind instead of keeping himself In shape ho got drunk and stayed that way for a whole week , and as an inevitable consequence quence , ho got what ho deserved , a [ iropcr licking. Now things are differ ent. Ho hus trained hard and industriously and is a cuckoo this very moment. - Ho is one of the gamest men who ever donned a mit. can stand any amount of hard knocks , ind as ho is head .and shoulders over that big Australian stiff-in point of science and ring tactics , why shouldn't ho win ? Then there will not be over ten pounds difference in their weight , but I see you quoted on Goddnrd and suppose your mind Is made up , and what I tell you don't go. But it does Ed will beat the head off ; hc favorite , you hear me I" .Sunily's Own Opinion. "If Sriiith would stay away from Goddnrd , I think myself ho has n sort of a chance , " I replied , "but ho is too fighty for that , and consequently I expect to see him lose , and lose quickly. There are few men who dare mix matters up with this fellow. " "Well , wait nnd see that's all we can do jupt now , unless it is take a drink , eh ? " Upon investigation I find that there are moro people than Backer Qunin who enter tains the idea that Denver Ed is about to maka the listic effort of his life. All agree that ho is u hard citizen , but erratic and un reliable , and while many venture the opinion that ho will bo victorious , they are placing but few shekels in support of the opinion. They all say that the light will bo a slaughter , and for mo I thlulc Smith will bo the victim.

STEWART AFTER MATTES' DECISIONS ll rrlvnln Opinion of tlio Olno County I'nr- Iliiincntiiry ItnlcK Ooe * Into tlio Itrcords Hound limy ( letting Itciuly 1II1U for LINCOJ.X , Nob. , March 2. [ Special to Tun : } KK. ] The smoke raised by the conflict in the senate chamber had not entirely cleared way when that honorable body convened .his . morning. This fact was evidenced by , bo action of Senator Stewart In arising to i question of privilege. lie wanted to enter nn emphatic and vigorous protest against , ho proceedings of last night. Ho protested iltterly against the rulings of Chairman Mattes and declared that ho had trampled upon the rights of members of the senate. Senator Mattes answered the somewhat excited remarks of the senator , and said that f ho wanted to make any complaints ho should have made them the night before. Ho claimed on his own part that the inde- icndents had undertaken to prevent the senate from carrying out n regular order by filibustering. Ho took his seat with the statement that ho would make the same ruling again if placed in the same position. Stewart's protest was spread upon the [ ournal. Kcports from standing committees were then received. The most notable report was the ono from the committee on miscellaneous corporations , recommending the indefinite postponement of senate file No. 1)3. ) The 1)111 was Introduced by Pope , and fixes the rates 011 telephones at $1 per month for bus iness places and $1.50 per month for resi dences. Objection being made , action on the report was positioned until tomorrow. The committee on reapportloninent re ported Young's bill , No , 1'il , making a reap portionment of senatorial and representative districts , with the recommendation that it pass as amended. Consideration of the re port went over until tomorrow. Lobcck's bill , No. IDli , requiring the publi cation of articles of incorporation , was sent to the general file. Bnbcock's bill , exempting 400 acres of cemetery property from taxation , was recommended for passage. Dabi'ock's bill placing all canals con structed for water power or other useful purposes under the laws relating to irriga tion was placed on general file. Upon report of the committee on federal relations C'orrell's Joint resolution asking congress to submit a constitutional amend ment providing for the election -of United Slates senators by a direct vote of the people - plo was postponed. The committee on deaf and dumb roiwrtod that it had visited that Institution at Omaha , and recommended an additional appropriation. JiuiKlliiir Over Pny , The senate then involved itself in a tangle over the question of pay for employes. The discussion arose over tlio resolution offered early hi the week by Senator Tctt't , reciting that the secretary of the senate and his assistants liau been drawing double pay , and declaring it the sense of the senate that employes bo paid only one day's salary for one day's service. The resolution had been referred to the committee on accounts and expenditures. Chairman McCnrty. from that committee , reported the resolution back to the senate with the recommendation that in the future all claims for overtime should be referred to his committee. The report brought Senator Tefft to Jits foot. Ho declared that the report of tlio committee practically admitted that em ployes had been drawing double pay and en dorsed the practice. lie asserted tnat some of the employes In the secretary's ofilco had been drawing as high as $8 u day. Ho be lieved that & was sufficient , and if there were not enough clerks ho was willing to vote moro. Chairman MeCarty admitted that $ S per day had been drawn , but remarked that It couldn't bo helped at this late day. Ho knew that the employes had put in overtime , but the committee had not ascertained how much. The debate continued along these lines for some time , Dale tried to Justify the double pay scheme by citing the fact that the work in the secretary's ollleo was now being done ny six clerks , whereas several years ago fourteen were employed. Senator Gray met this assertion with the rcllcctlon that because the senate was ex travagant several years ago the fact could not Justify the same course at the present time. Will Hold Out on the Clnrks. The debate ended by the adoption of a resolution offered by Senator Tellt providing that the receiving of double pay in the past should bo taken Into consideration In draw ing vouchers in the future. The effect of the amendment will bo that the extra pay drawn by employes in the past will bo deducted - ducted from the salary they draw hi the future. Mattes' bill amending the act creating the State Board of Health was recommended for passage. It permits that board to issue cer tificates to mfdwives who are graduates of a legally chartered school of obstetrics. A little Hurry was created by North's mo tion to adjourn for the day. It was mot by an amendment by Dale , providing for a re cess until 2 o'clock. The amendment was carried. This afternoon the senate thought better of It , however , nnd adjourned Immediately after roll call In order to allow a largo dele gation of Omaha people to occupy the senate chamber to present their objections and ar guments on the Omaha charter before the senate committee. IN Till : : HOUSE. Committee of the Whole Piishnd to Keep U | with UsVork. . LINCOLN , Neb. , March U. [ Special to TUB BEE. ] As soon as the house had boon prop erly opened this morning McICcsson tried to get the committee of the whole Into working order , but objection was made and his motion to that effect was not agreed to. Chairman Khodos , from the engrossing committee , reported that his clerks wore on < tlroly out of work and ho believed that if the house would go Into committee of the whole the present force would bo able to do thi work. With this explanation the hous * went into committee. Before doing so , however , ono or two mat tcrs of minor importance. A committee o four was appointed to confer with the gov crnor In regard to the gulf railroad project The matter of paying fees of witnesses who had appeared before the several invest ! gating committees was briefly discussed and it was tacitly agreed that they should b paid whether the committees had been authorized to call witnesses or not. The house then went into committee o the whole for the consideration of bills on general file , with McKesson in the chair. Watson's bill , No. 01 , providing for the se curlty and payment of rebate vouchers o certificates issued by incorporated coin panics , trusts , associations , etc. , was thi first measure taken up. Mr. Watson explained that the object o. the bill was to break down the sovera trusts now operating in Nebraska. The sys torn of rebate vouchers now adopted in No braska by the distillery , starch , cracker match , coffee and other trusts , enables then to get around the anti-trust law passed by the legislature in 18S7. The bill was rccom mended for passage with no opposition. I'oitpuned Stevcni' Jllll , Something of a fight came up over Stevens bill to tax real estate mortgages. Oakley asserted that the All would drlv < capital out of the state. Jouscn claimed that it was class leglsla tion. tion.Goss Goss alleged that it conflicted with othci statutory provisions , and Cornish polntei out the fact that the tax would have to b < paid by the man , who borrowed the money , Kcsslor stated that ho had been n bor rower of money ever since he had lived it the state , and ue had found that every hind nnco thrown around the collection 01 money nvnrlnbly raNed ihMato of Interest. Ho lalmed that the Nofjlrnaka farmer * needed nonov from the east nnd that this bill would njuil ) HIP farmers jyho borrowed money nero than It did any otic else. Carpenter could iwm nothing but compllca- Ion In the bill. Uyntilil put n double tax iHii | the money loliubr. Ho claimed that ho bill would work a creat hardship to bor rowers , Stevens undertook to nniwcr nil the argu- nents urged against his bill. Ho gave the louse an excellent sample of eloquence from ho rare old Websterian stock , nnd Insisted hut ho wanted all'tlK ) members to go on ecord , whether -thwir sympathies wore vlth the poor and tliivppressoil ; or with the leh and the favored. Dobson recognized' Wgrcntde.il of Justice n the bill. He claimed that almost every ict on the statnta books was put there In ho interest of capital. The farmers and a borers of the country have been reduced o a condition of almost serfdom. The committee rosn , on n motion to report > rogrcss , ami asked leave to sit attain. The louse MUmmnrlly disposed of the bill , however - over , by indefinitely postponing further con sideration by a vote of 4" toID. . The house then took ft recess until 'J o'clock. I > Uciu liiK thn World' * Tnlr Illll. After recess the house again went Into jommittco of the whole and took up Schap- icll's substitute f rliisa roll No. ! i ( ' > S , the till appropriating sSWiHX ) fgr the Nebraska exhibit at the World's fair. Schappo called the attention of the louse to the fact that the enacting clause 'mil been omitted from the bill. In the Ight of recent experience the house hastened .o correct the error. , Carpenter offered nn amendment adding o the $ 'J. > , ( K)0 ) the amount now in the bunds of the commission , $ HV158.lVi. Elder offered an amendment to the itnciidmcut making the entire amount ? 15.- > 00 to bo equally divided between the hog , 'lorso and cattle breeders of the state. In support of his amendment Elder charged .Hat the commission had squandered the J.10,000 appropriated two years ago. Ho iroposed to stand up for the hog breeders of Nebraska. Carpenter knocked Elder's amendment In the head by the statement thutno live stock would be permitted In Jackson p-irk. Khodes wanted to know what had become of the money already spent , but no ono was well enough posted to give him the required information , and ho returned to the perusal of his favorite volume of Cushing. ICesslcr thought $ i" ,000 was not cnouith to insure a creditable display. Ho favored an Amendment Increasing the amount to $40,000. A substitute for all the amendments was offered by Jensen. It simply provided that S3.r,000 shall bo appropriated in addition to the unexpended balance in the hands of the World's fair commission. It was adopted. The debate over the bill was hot and iioavy for an hour and upwards. The op ponents of the bill fought it section by sec- Lion , but tlio friends of the measure were In the majority , and they succeeded in preserv ing the main features intact. The bill was further amended so as to set ipart the following sums for the purposes named : Horse exhibit , $1,000 ; cattle ex hibit , $1,000 : swine exhibit , $3,000 ; agricul tural and horticultural exhibits , $1,000 each ; dairy , apiary and poultry exhibits , ยง 1,000 each. After the bill had been thus amended the committee voted tovrix'ommcnd the bill for l > assago. Other Kottllno Work. House roll No. ife'Oy ' Hlgglns , providing that the Jurisdiction or justices of the peace In civil cases shall ! , unless otherwise di rected by law , bo .limited to the township wherein they have bpon elected and where they shall reside. f.n < committee voted to recommend for indefinite postponement. It was discovered that in the bill pro viding for the payment of the incidental expenses of the present se.Solon an item making appropriations for newspapers and postage had been included , and an amend ment striking out Ufo. t.Vcm was carried. The committee then arose and Immedately after making its repprt the house adjourned. Modjeska has addwl ouo ( moro to 'her gal lery of great histrionic , interpretations of feminine character. Hcr'Katherineof Arra- gen must bo placed alongside ' of her incom parable Mary Stuart , witU , which it claims kindred .because of its comtsingled womanly weakness , queenly dignity , and that devout faith which , through suffering's sorest hours , gives sustaining solace and strengthens res ignation. Last night at the Boyd Modjeska's produc tion of Shakespeare's "Henry VIII. " was presented for the first time in Omaha. The fingers of ono hand are more than enough to tell off the worthy presentations of this great historical tragedy seen on the modem stage. Modjeska's will surely rank as ono of thorn. The play is spectacular , and Mod- jcska's setting of It is , and must rema'n , notable. The scenery , painted by Albert , Graver and Burridgo of Chicago , Is all as plctorially accurate as , stage limitations will permit of. The London of the sixteonthicen- tury surrounds the onlooker , nnd following Buckingham to the waterside and the block , as cheering Anne Bullen in her coronation procession , ho lives and moves In the streets 'where the towers of Westml/Nstcr / throw- " their shadows , and where , in Oscar Wilde's line phrase , "St. Paul's floats like a bubble o'er the tow.n. " The interiors are as notabloas the exteriors. The second scene , the council chamber , is a triumph of scenic art , the pictured tapestries being lifelike to a degree. The court at Blackfrlnrs , the queen's apartments at Bridewell , the death chamber at Klmbolton are all as worthy of commendation. No praise can bo too high for the enterprise , informed by such rare artistic instinct , of the woman who has put before the public such a fitting frame for the action ofj ono of Shakespeare's greatest plays and the reputation of Omaha ana her citizens In their ability to fully appreciate , and properly attest their appreciation of , the higher stngu art is at stake. iSot a seat should have been vacant at the Boyd last evening , and several dozens were. But the living central portrait in this sumptuous frame , Dr. Johnson , speaking of "Henry VIII.,1' said "tho genius of Shake speare comes in with Katherine and goes out with ICatherino. " How sweetly womanly a figure Is hers. And Modjeaka is Kathcrino. She Is moro beautiful than Holbein's great portrait ; but throughout the action of the play , from her first appearance to plead for the relief of the overtaxed com monalty of the realm , through the court that would deprive her of her dear honor of wlfchood and queenhood , in her retirement , to her last sad , salntllko passing , she is the Kathcrino of Shakespeare , the ICatherino of plain , unbroidored his tory.

The breach that ms existed butwccn .John Sullivan nnd Chrfrlos Mitchell was spanned this afternoon rvhfii the two met on thu stage in Hanilln'n .hcatur and warmly grasped each other's lands. The scene that followed this meeting was ono of the wildest ever witnessed or heard In i St. Louis theater. The house was packed , o the doors and every ono present seemed on the instant to RO roaring , stark mad. For nearly llvo years , or ever sluco the Ohantllly affair In 1SS3 , Sullivan and Mitchell have > vnged a war of words unparalleled even In the "mouth" annals of Ilstlana. Hut now all is over. Everything Is as lovely between them as a marriage bell , Itidging from today's display of affection. Doth are heart and soul in the desire to dls- ; > ese of James J. Corbctt and will do their best to divest the I'hainplon of his richly deserved served title. Mitchell will be the principal , and Sullivan will probably bo his second on the occasion of the Corlwtt annihilation. When Sullivan was knocked out at Now Orleans last September thu llrst words ho uttered on regaining consciousness were th it if ho was to bo defeated ho was glad to know th.it an American had won the championship. Until within a few weeks asro ho stood ny that expression. Hut It In mtlercnt Novr. Tabn L.'s sentiments have been wonder fully metamorphosed nnd ho now declares himself for un Englishman as against nn American. Charley Mitchell , Ooorpo Dalrd , Jack Me AulltTo and several of their St. Louis friends were tendered a box at Havlln's for the matlneo this afternoon > vhich they accepted. As Mitchell entered the box many In the audience recognized him nnd a cheer went up , Sullivan entering on the stage a moment afterward. The latter evidently had realized what had happened lu the house , nnd amid the racket which had been prolonged , stepped to the front of the stage. John bowed first to the nudumco and then took off his hat to Mitchell , who was in the box. Then the scene In the house grew moro wild. The cheering and whistling continued without interruption for fully live minutes. \n the last act , Just before the thrco- ronnd sparring contest , Mitchell , Abingdon , Bulrd and MeAulllYc , on motion from Sulli van , stepped onto tli/o / stacc and stooil in line. Instantly the audience of y.OOD or more went wild. For llvo minutes the crowd yelled and stamped nnd clapped. Then Sullivan reached over and warmly clasped Mitchell's hand. The audience became wilder than ever. Finally securing quiet , Sullivan stepped to the front and said : Tiilkhi ) ; About ( lUiitlmiicn Ladles nnd Gentlemen : Tin ) hand I have just extended lo Mr. .Mitchell was extended 113 an act of genuine friendship , [ Cheers.Vi ] \ have not before shaken hands slm'o 1HH7. I do this today publicly to show ( hat a gentle- J nmn born on this shlo of the Atlantic can ap- * preclatu gentlemanly conduct on thip i'tof one born on the other shlo. And In addition I wish him success against Corbctt , who Is a born American , but ho N not on the level. See ? [ Cheers anil a few hisses. ] Sullivan again shook hands with Mitchell and retired with the balance of the party to the rear of the stage. The audience loudly called for Mitchell and ho , coining forward , said : Ladles nnd Gentlemen : I thank you for this demonstration of your good will. Whllo Sullivan and I have not met ho fore In iv friendly way .slnco our llttln ntriilr at Uhnntllly , I ran assure you I have never had any III will toward him. OUrulTalr at that time was purely a buslines one. I do not want , to appear as trying to make myself look big becuuso I have made a match with the man rrhwwoll - of cour- won from him , but did not really defeat him. Mr. .Sullivan last September was not theHnlll- van I mot mid fought a draw with. You know well I don't want to booirenslvo or say It with bad meaning , but John , like others of us , sometimes makes a fool of himself and takes u drop too much , And before ho fought Cor- bett In ) had a long spoil of .sickness. Whi'ii I fought Sullivan 1 oxpecto 1 a draw and got It. And I want to say rUht hero that n.s u pu llUt and athluto , thu world nuver saw Mr. Sullivan's eiiial | , and never will product ) his equal. If 1 win from Coruett and bulllvan challenges mo I won't accept , but will forfeit nnd retire and let him dlu thu champion. Another outburst of applause followed this speech , and then the play was allowed to proceed. The whole party were Sullivan's guests at dinner this evening. DA1A" COULDN'T WIN IT.

[ Special Tele gram to Tun BKE. ] Dan Daly of Hot Springs , who broke the lightweight record at South Omaha two years ago by fighting Tom White ninety-six rounds to a draw , and Billy O'Donnoll of this city fought another long draw near the town of Kowena , north of hero , early this morning. Because of police Interference the flght was held in a tent on the prairie and in the bitter cold. It took eighty-one rounds to decide that neither man could best the other. The fight was fast and swift for the first fifteen rounds , O'Donnell leading the fight ing and punishing Daly severelyIn the fifteenth he broke the bones in the back of his right hand with a blow that scut Daly to the ground. From that tlmo on he was unable to use his right except in defense. Daly took advantage of the opportunity and rushed the lighting until the thirtieth round. Then O'Donnoll commenced to worry him with left hand Jabs In the mouth and nose. O'Donnell again became the aggressor , and for thirty-seven rounds pushed the lighting. In the sixty-seventh both men landed terrific loft hand swings on the jaw nt the same time. Daly went Into the ropes limp and O'Doiinoll fell helpless to the ground. It looked like a double knock out , but both men got up before counted out and clinched as time was called. From that to the seventy-sixth O'Donnell fought like a demon , rushing the lighting. In the following rounds both seemed winded and helpless , and could barely land. Daly asked for a division of the fCOO purse and drawing of $ T 00 sldo hots in the eightieth , but O'Donnell refused , in the eighty-first the men were so weak from exertion nnd punishment that they could hardly stand , The referee called the flght a draw , ordered the purse divided and declared all bets off. One thousand western sporting men saw the light , which lusted five hours and twenty-two minutes , and all pronounced O'Donnell a marvel of science , strength and grit. WILL J1UILD IT UP.

I Will cure You , Is n true statement of the action of AVER'S Sarsaparilla , when taken for diseases originating in impure blood ; but , while this assertion Is true of AVER'S Saraaparilla , as thousands can attest , it cannot be truthfully applied to other preparations , which unprincipled dealers will recommend , and try to im pose upon you , as "just as good as Ayor's. " Take Ayer's Snrsaparilla and Ayor's only , if you need a blood-purifier and would bo benefited permanently. This medicine , for nearly fifty years , hns enjoyed n reputation , and made a record for cures , that has never been equaled by other preparations. AYER'S Sarsaparilla eradicates the taint of he reditary scrofula and other blood dis eases from the system , and it has , deser vedly , the confidence of the people. Sarsapariila "I cannot forbear to express my Joy at the relict I have obtained from the usa of AVER'S Sarnaparllla. I was allllcted with kidney troubles for about six months , suffering greatly with pains In the small of my bock. In addition to this , my body was povorcd with pimply eruptions. The remedies prescribed failed to help mo. I then began to take AYEU'8 Sarsnparllla , and , In a short tlmo , the palm ) ceased and the pimples disappeared. I advise every young man or woman , in case of sickness result- ing'.fKra Impure blood , no matter how long standing the case may bo , to take AYEU'S Sarsaparilla.
