Among my many sins , I have attended n prize fight , and far the outpour of rank blas phemy nnd reckless blackguardism It ran nn execution at Newgate or Horsomongcr lane Jail very close. The police were dead against prize lights , which were excuses for a gigantic form of extortion. Two rufflans of the lowest class contracted to batter one another about In order to extract the guineas from the swells , the toffs and the supporters of the "noble art of self-defense. " A pro- grant had to be secretly arranged , a special train had to bo secured for the army men , the swells about town and the scum of the metropolis , who Ilvod upon the excitement or the pelf of prize-fights. There was a certain official countenance to these Illegal "mills. " The editor of Bell's Life In Lon don constituted himself the arbiter on tlicso occasions. This was the organ of the prize fighter. The editor received the stakes de posited , acted as referee and afterwards de scribed the fights In a Jargon delightfully humorous. "Tapping the claret , " "One In the bread basket , " "A rouser on the conk" were all phrases Invented by the editors of Bell's Life. The night before It was necessary to go to a sporting pub'to got "the ofUce , " and to receive for a valuable consideration the spe cial railway ticket. The vigil of the fight was usually spent In the "wild west , " for In these days there was no closing hour. Restaurants and public houses could keep open as long as they liked , Races wcro run In the Haymarkel at 3 o'clock In the morning , and about I or 5 the "swells , " all In evening dress , would assemble at the railway station , each one In charge of a specially appointed protector. The scene at the railway station was Indescribable. The olllclals made themselves scarce and the station was banded over to mob law. On the platform the pocket of every unprotected man or youth was emptied , and when the train started amidst a chorus of obscenity and blasphemy no one knew the destination. It might be a deserted chalk pit or an old quarry , or a lonely wood or a river marsh , Suddenly the train would stop and away went the excursionists , tramping over Held and meadow. The principals were milflled up. The attendants carried the ropes and stakes and when the ring was pitched every one who had a sovereign was fleeced to buy the colors of the favorite a silk handker chief that could not have cost 4 pence. I forbear to describe the hideous blasphemy that soiled the morning air , or the mad exe crations during the mlllJv When a cham pion's eye was bunged up with a blow his second lanced IH'nnd then sucked It Into fighting condition < ! have scon many a bravo young fellownffalnt at the hideous sight of a prize flRht Soldiers , most of tltcm , who would have' ' gone to battle without flinching. -il i > o THE LIGHT THAT FAILED. .

The curious portion of the passing throng edged over near the curb to watch It pass. It was evident that the ranks had received a now addition fa girl , 'whoso salt and general ' eral appearance'betokened a laclt-of homo training and a hard trouble for existence In the tenderloin "district. Her face , pinched from hunger and dissipation , with a slight discoloration under one eye , Indicated that her debut In the gospel corral was very recent. "Git onto Kitty , de bilk ! Wouldn't dot Jar yo ? " exclaimed a street gamin to a hack driver , who gravely remarked : "Tho plckln * must be glttln' mighty slim up the alley. " But to these and other comments Kitty assumed an air , of contemptuous Indiffer ence and marched on thumping a tam bourine , head erect , and-a now light shining In her eyes. A temporary blockade at Mason street caused a slight delay , and a party of young men passed through the procession. They had been loolclng'upon the wine In Its red ness. Ono of them stopped , bared his head nnd bowed low before the now re cruit. "Er beg pardon , but haven't I mot you somewhere ? Your chawmlng- face seems familiar. " This provoked a roar of laughter from his companions "Cholly's such a Josher , y'know. " The light In the new recruit's eyes be came a steely glitter. "Youso de Jay wat stood mo off fud do drinks last winter , nnd den screwed yer nut wldout yeUdln1 up. de dough. " And she banged the tambourine down over ils bare head , leaving It as a necklace , taking a feint with her left hand , she fol- owed It up with .her . right on the point of hp jaw , then turned and disappeared In the crowd , emitting a sizzling stream of pro- anlty that marked her course like the flery all of an erratic skyrocket. * * * * * * The good angel , who sat aloft patiently flsh- ng Intc tha bottomless pit for lost souls , slowly arose and wound up his line , re marking that ho had ono good bite , but It got away.

Passing St. Francis' academy the column halted nnd allowed tlio schoo children , In charge of the sisters , to taho the advance. The boys , fifty-one In number wore red sashes , and the girls , seventy-six In number , were dressed In whlto and were blue sashes. Each child carried a mlnla 'turo American flag and they presented an Inspiring rpectaclo as they marched In per feet order to their place In the column. Ap preaching the church the Woman's Relief corps and Sons of Veterans opened ranks the old veterans passed through to scats reserved for them , followed by the other organizations , the standard of each being placed In position at the front , near the communion rail. As the Grand Army was passing Into the church Father I'aclflcus who conducted the services , stood wltlioui with uncovered hoad. Within the church was a profuse display of bunting nnd flags genuine American flags , Just such as the old boys used to march under to the music of shot nnd shell. Schcrdenmeyer's Mass In p , which Is used only on state occasions , was sung by the choir -with flno effect , nnd then followed the seimon. Father I'nclflcus taking as his text the words , "Blessed arc the dead who die In the Lord , for henceforth their works shall follow them. " Referring to the Im mortal Lincoln , to Grunt , Sherman , Sheridan and a dozen others famous In the civil war , ho mentioned that while they differed Ir nationality , education , religion and almost everything , yet In one thing they were alike In patriotism , and "that was the golden bond thdt bound them to each other nnd to us.1' Speaking of the common soldier , he said that when the Protestant stood on guard the Catholic slept In perfect security , and that when the Catholic was on guard the Protestant did not _ fear a midnight surprise. In fact , then no question of religion or nationality was ever raised , and that when the soldier looked In the pale faces of his dead comrades , he never stopped to think whether they were natlvo or foreign , Protest ant or Catholic , but only remembered that they died In one common cause. "Thoso dead soldiers loved one another like brothers , nnd that fact should teach those now living to love one another like ' brothers. " To the loyal women of'the land , whether Catholic or Protestant , who "In a thousand ways served the cause of liberty In the camps or In the flcld" he paid an eloquent tribute. The sermon was a fervid and eloquent tribute to our deceased comrades and to the cause for which they shed their blood. Such an extempore expression of patriotic loyalty as was this sermon could only como from a loyal heart. "In conclusion , " ho said , "let mo use the words of the Immortal Lincoln , 'With charity for all and malice ' " * " toward none. The church was filled to overflowing , moro than 900 being present , and made up from all classes of pepolc. As the old , grizzled veterans left the church they were again escorted by the children , and tha crowd without stood In respectful silence as they passed. Altogether , It has been a day long to bo remembered In the history of Grand Army affairs In the city of Columbus. HUBBELL , Neb. , May 27.

Hood & Co. , Lowell , Mas * . : " ( iontlenien : Wishing to tell what Hood's Sai < saparllla has done for us , I will say that 3 yean ago wo had a beautiful boy born to us. When about six months old ho took a sore mouth , r.verythlng th.it was known as usual remedies , In such cases was used. I had two doctors but' all to no benefit At tbo ago of 11 mouths ha , breathed his last. Thus wo laid Our Darling Child In the grave. On Aug. 4,1801 , another boy wa * born unto us. At the ago of two months ho be came aftllctcil with the s.imo disease. I believed the boy's trouble was constitutional , and not' common sore mouth. I procured a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparllla and commenced to give it regularly to both mother and baby , nnd occa- slonly washed his mouth with n syrup of buck brush root. Improvement began at onco. Wo have succeed In eradicating the scrofulous blood from the system and to-day we are blessed with a nice , fat baby boy , eighteen months old. IIo Is the very Picture of Health , all life and full of mischief thanks to Hood's Sarsaparllla. I nm a minister In the Methodist 1'rotcstant church. I am here to back what I say and I am In no nay Interested In any profit In the matter , except It adonis mo much pleas ure to recommend Hood's Sarsaparllla to all as Hood'ss ? > Cures a safe , sure remedy.
