It took Tommy Ryan eighteen rounds to dispose ol George Green tonight. Frctn a spectators' point of view It was a beautiful exhibition of clever boxing. Neither man showed a market ot punishment at the flnUti , and tbo advcn- tago alternated until after the thirteenth , when Ryan's superior stamina began to tell. He seemed the most effective In close wcrk from this point on , and bla left jabs In the face , and short arm right hand blows on the body , took the lite out of the local man. At no time could Ryan land hla right on Grccn'a jaw effectively , while Green sent In several gooJ rights co Ryan's face. Ryan's superior ring generalship helped him to win the fight. Ho allowed Green to tire himself In the early stages of the contest and came with a rush at the finish. The fight was before the National Athletic club , and a crowd of 4,500 spectators were present. Joe Wolcott sent a message from Now York challenging the winner. The following la the detail of the fight by rounds : Round 1 The men begun by sparring for a minute. Green aggressive.

Green swung right on bead. Ryanl rushed. Green clinched and put right on body and head In the clinch. Rounds ! 5 and C were lively. Ryan forced the lighting , but was unable to land effec tively , although scoring two left swings on the body. Green showed to better advan tage In the clinches , putting - evernl hard rubs on the body. To this point the fight .was . even. Round 7 was In favor of Ryan. Green appeared tired , nnd , bis blows lacked force. Ryan was acgresslve. Round S Green landed a hnnl left swing on Ryan's face. Ryan rushed and r.vas met with a straight left on the face , but put , ln a good uppercut In the clinch. It was Green's'round , however. Rounds ! > and 19 were about even. Green appeared the stronger when they came to 11 clinch , forcing Ryan against the ropes , but no hard blows were landed. Round 11 This was i\ pretty exhibition , but without any hard blows being struck. .Round . 12 Ryan jabbe'd Green In the face several times. Then matters were mixed. Ryan put a hard left on > hc Jaw nnd fol lowed with a right on the head , staggering Green , but the latter came back quickly and put a left on thei body and right on the head. , Round IS Slightly In Green's favor. Ho did most of the leading and landed good left and right swings 'on ' the head. Ryan Jabbed Green In tbo face with the left , but without damage. Round 14 Slightly In Ryan's favor. Green kept moving about and .appeared to be playIng - Ing for a rest. Round In Remarkably fast. Ryan forced the pace , but was well countered. Ryan seemed slightly winded at the close. Round 1C This round ended In a hot rally. Ryan showed to bettor advantage In the close work , but both men were tired. This was Ryan's round. * Round 17 The terrifllo pace for sixteen rounds began to tell on both. They took t slowly at the beginning of this round , but wound up nt a fast clip. Ryan resorting to eft hand Jabs. Green appeared very tired. Round 18 Green came up very tired. He showed no marks , but the fast fighting had worn him out. After a rush from Ryan , Green clinched and slipped to the floor , ex- uiusted. He remained down nine seconds , came up for a moment , and then fell to ils knees and was counted out. He did note ; o out from n blow , but from sheer ex- laustlon. VOX DEIl A1II3 AHIIIVI2S IX ST. JLOU1S. He AVI11 Flwht III CIIHC to the 'IllKlit'Ht ' Court. ST. LOUIS , Feb. 23.

Costa Rica now has 2,000 men on the frontier and 'by ' next week will have from 5,000 to 6,000. This , however. Is only a preventive measure , and It will perhaps end In smoke. This govern ment denies aiding the Nlcaraguan rebels. They were only tolerated on Costa Rlcan soil within the limits of the law.

It Is seml-ofllcially an nounced that Colonel Plcquart , the chief celery compound has observed how soon It regulates the bowels and clears the whites of the eyes of that yellow jaundiced look. Another witness of Its Invigorating capacity that may escape the notice of persona not accustomed to ordinarily employing this test Is Its effect on the pulse. Observe the firm , regular , full pulse that was before uncertain , fluttering and feeble. The great susceptibility of woman to worry Is heightened by the fact that she leads u more confined , monotonous life , narrowed down to the four walls of homo the greater part of the day. Palno's celery compound Is Just what such nervous , depressed per sons need to restore their nerves to energy and to lift them out of their constipated , dyspeptic habit of body. Palne's celery compound counteracts the exhausting strain of work by Its strong In ducement to the delicate tissues to take inoro food. It plainly Induces the nerves and brain to feed themselves more liberally , and ban thus saved countless men and women from chronic neuralgia , rheumatism , sleeplessness and falling mental power. No remedy has been discovered so rich lit flesh-formlug and energy-producing con stituents as Palne's celery compound. milllary witness for Zola during the latter' * trial , will bo placed on the half-pay of a lieutenant.
