TUB Bun. ] In talking about his victory over
George Dlxon at Madison Square garder
Tuesday night. Billy Pllmmor said :
"I always told my friends that I could boal
Dlxon , nnd 1 think I proved to their satis
faction on Tuesday nlcht that I was noi
mistaken I huvo studied Uixon's lighting
movements over slnco I cumo to America ,
and I fult confident I could avoid his famous
loft hand blows by clover ducking nnd good
stops with the elbow. My success proved
that my theory was correct. Dlxon has won
n good many llRhts by 'scaring his men
Ho could nut do that to mo. I novo ;
yet met u man I was afraid of , I may llph
Dlxon to a finish some day if u purse of $10 ,
000 Is offered. I Vvont out of my class to
give Dlxona chance , nnd If ho wants ti
light mo to n finish ho will have to coino tc
my terms. I need a rest Just now , and
propose to talto U. "
Plli.iuior is in great demand now. Th
Coney Island Athletic club wants to match
the little Englishman against Dlxon lor a
$10,000 purse to a llnlsh. Domlnlcic O'Mnlloy
of the Columbian Athletic club offers 1'llin
mnr a finish tight against Johnny Murphy o
Boston for a purao of f.5,000. 1'llmmorsay
ho will consider both offers. Of the two , h
thinks bailer of the Coney Island offer.

CHICAGO , Aug. 27. There was only ono
meeting of the "unemployed" today and It
wns so orderly that the police found no rea
son to Interfere.
The rioters arrested yesterday , not ono of
whom can speak a word of English , will bo
arraigned tomorrow.
It Is very much doubted If a quarter of the
people who filled the Farnam Street theater
yesterday wcro acquainted with the fact
that they ' were assisting with their generous
applauso'at the promloro of u now vaudeville
organization to be known as "Tho Cosmo
politans. ' ! The company , recruited from the
London mublu halls , the Folles Borgores ot
Paris , Tony Pastor's , Kostor and Bial's and
the leading variety theaters of Chicago ,
has boon in active rehearsal the past
fortnight , and yesterday made Its Initial
appearance under the management of Hooves
& Palmer.
Omaha lias soon all the leidlng vaudeville
companies touring the country In the past
half doron yonra , but It Is questioned
whether local theater-goers have soon so
excellent a company of clover people as
these holding the boards nt the Furnam
Street theater this wook. While hero und
there an old-timer makes his appearance in
nets that have become somewhat vcnoorod
with time the element of newness Is largely
predominant and the reception accorded the
now faces wns at once hearty and spon
taneous ,

John H. Muck plays the banjo artistically ,
while Lottie Murphy and Phil Mack appear
in a bright comedy sketch , "Afler the Gumo

woman , notwithstanding her Gallic nom do
theater , has the taint of the London nmalo
hall about her. She Is bright , dances ox-
quisltely and is a blessed relief from the
traditional soubrette with "frowslod" hair
and piping voice. But the hit of
the evening was made by Mary
Stuart with her sonc ' 'GcorKlc. " In
methods , Miss Stuart suggests the queen of
the vaudeville stuge , Fougoro , who was the
sensation of Now York lust winter. Pretty
and plquanto , with a musical voice , mezzo in
quality , and a versatility that charmed aud
captivated the audience. She Is fur and
away the bright star of the performance
wherein all are stars. Her suggestive hit
"On Midway Plaisunco" was a pronounced
"go , " whllo > her Impersonations are the
height of cleverness. Miss Stuart is
the best exponent of genuine farce
our theater goers have scon in years.
