An enormous crowd was parked into Blum's hall to see the fray and enthusiasm was on the rampage. Local sentiment put the house Jargelv in Rlch e s favor at first, but Bartlev came to the front with such a whirlwind attack snd footwork that soon fully half the crowd was bscktng him. The mill was so clearly for biood and on the square that excitement rose to the VlicVlMt Tlltch. From the very start Mike flew in like a man intended, ana ne iea tne ngnting nnt of the wav with all his strength, out- footing and a little outhoxing Richie. The latter s superior strength and endurance, however, stood him in good stead, and as Richie also had a little more steam behind his punch matters were thus evened up. Bartley is a six-round fighter, and had never in his life gone more than eight, so tne last half of the go wp a new experi ence to him, snd he lasted remarkably well considering. His wind was not equal to Richie'. ,, , . Am urerimlnarles Kid Jensen of Omaha won from Charles Klussw with a clever knockout tn the thlra rouna. at leainrr weighia.

On Saturday, May 14. the national gov ernmeot will unveil In the city of Wash ington a monument to Count it Rocham beau, erected a a tribute to bi noble en-ice In aid of tb colonies during tbe revolutionary war. Tbe monument stand at th aouthwest corner of Lafayette Square, and 1 txartly tbe line sise a the monument to Lafay ette which standi on tbc southeast corner of th square. On tbe front of the base of the monument is a figure of tbc god dess of Liberty stepping out cf a bost. In ber left band she bold a flagstaff, on which the rtar and Stripe and the French flag re intertwined. In ber right band 1 word, with which sbe 1 defending B American eagle, wblcb stand above a hleld, bearing thirteen stars, ymboliral of tbe original colonies. The side ef tbe base of tbe monument will bear the coat of arms of France and of tbe Aorhambeeu family. Tbe back of tb bee will bear tbe name of Count d Rochambeau. A bronx atatue of Rochambeau. standing with hi right band upraised, surmounts the ton base. France will be represented by Count de Rochambeau. great grandson of the French marshal, and his wife, and a number of official designated by tbe French govern ment. Tbe date cf tbe unveiling 1 tb anniver sary of Count de Rochambeau entrance Into the French rmy, in 1742, when only IT year old. He wa efhsrated for the prleatbood, but the death of hi elder brother made blm belr to tbe title and estates of bis father, and be followed tbe tradition of tbe family and entered tbe army. In 1747 be wn made a colonel, and In 17P1 he was made a field marshal. He served with distinction a tbe commander, in -chief of th French force In America during the war of Independence and ws called the father of tb French army by Emperor Ntpoleon, wbo beld him In high esteem. A Glaaaor of Renaaare. There 1 a glamor of romance surround ing tbe very same of the Rochambeau of the American revolution and mo long a tbe story of that revolution continue te bold interest and charm, Just so long will the Btory of Rochambeau hold it color bright and fadelee In tbe woof of Ameri can history. From out tbe multiplied memoirs of hi private and public life a writer In tbe Washington Post prenent these salient features: One hundred and seventy-six years ago be was born at Vendome. France, July 1, 172S. He entered tbe army In 1741 as a cornet In tbe regiment of St. Simon. Tbe record show that be distinguished blm aelf in tbe campaigns of 144-46 and in 1746 was ald-de-camp to the duke of Orleans In 1747, at tb age of 22, be wa commis sioned colonel of tbe infantry regiment In the battle of LanSeld, the same year, he received a wound In the bead, and a be wa being carried insensible from tbe field a second wound In the thigh restored blm to consciousness. Near tbe end of 1749 he married the notably beautiful and cultured Mile. Telle d'Aeoata. A son and A daughter were born to them. The daughter lived but a abort time. Tbe son. Donation Marl Joseph de Vlmeure, Vioomte de Rochambeau, was hli father's companion in arms In America. After the peace of Alx-la-Chapelle, Colonel Rochambeau became governor ot Vendome, but on tbe breaking out of tbs even year' war he resumed active mill tary service. In 1766 be was commissioned brigadier general. He served In Germany Is 1760 and at tbe battle of Cloister Camp, while resisting a charge of English grena diers, be received a ball In tbe thigh, but by the aid of two chasseurs, who assisted blm to walk, be bad strength to give or ders during the day. AaslB-aeal Americas Coxaaaaa. In 1700, after years ot faithful eervice and while ill of inflammatory rheumatism. be wa appointed lieutenant general to take cbarg ot tbe expeditionary force destined to aid tbe Americana. As eoon as be waa able to travel be went to Ver sailles to receive the order of tbe king. Tbe choice of thl distinguished mil tary genius as commander of tb Auxiliary Army corps was due te Ibe suggestion of Lafayette. General Rochambeau waa pre ceded to America by Count dEtalng, who bad been baffled by the English at Sa vannah. Tbe unexpected resylt of thl ex pedition, tbe ill success of" th attack la South Carolina and tbe depreciation ot paper currency this combination ot af fair precipitated dire extremity and dark despair. Washington stands out a beacon of rea son, philosophy and valor In this era of discouragement. In one of bia remark able letters urging tbe provision for the half-pay of the American officer, when tb war abould end ss an inducement to retain tbe officer at tbe bead of their regiment, be My: "Men may speculate aa tbey will; they may talk of patriot lam; tbey may draw a few example! from ancient atone of great achievements per formed by It Influence, but whoever builds upon them a a sufficient baai for conduct ing a long and bloody war, will find himself deceived In tbe end. I know patriotism ex- iats and I know it baa dona much In tb present crisl. but I will venture to assert that a great and lasting war can never be supported on this principle alone. It must be sided by a prospect of interest or some reward." This critical situation Induced congress to solicit gain from ber ally land and naval forces and moat urgent ot all money. France agreed te send out a squadron of ssven ship to cruise off tbe coast of America. At first it Wa proposed to aend 12,000 men. to be augmented te 20,000, but tboae figures wore greatly re duced aubcequently. A corps ot 4,000 abl troop and a considerable supply ot specie were voted. General Rochambeau . observed that the body of men under hi command was toe mall to act efficiently and at hie sugges tion it was doubled, with secret instruc tions from the king that tbe troops wer te embark without definite knowledge whither tbey were bound, and that the troop should not be dispersed, but re main tinder French generals and tb French generals should b under the com mand of Washington. This expedition was te be followed later in the year by a aecond division. Tb French navy being unable to furotah a sufficient number of transports, parti of regiments were left behind. Oa May Z, 17B0, tbe first division left Brest with tb regiment ef Bourbonnai. Solesetinsls fiaintonge.

Tbe heavy artillery and many passenger were embarked on Fantasque, an old vessel, a tore ship, intended a borpiul ship. Tbe English fleet unOer Graves was witching for the convoy, but their rout through the pamage bet seen tb island of Saint and the Beak of Ratt led from the entrance of th channel and resulted In disappointment to the expectant Eng. lish. Two week previous to the starting of tbe squadron Lafayette, who was re turning to join tbe American army, sailed on frigate from th island of Alt in company with commissary of war charged to announce the coming of the squadron and provide for tbe landttg and supplies of the French corps at Rhode Island. Oa tbe seventieth day from Brest. July 12. 1TP0, General Rochambeau and staff em barked on Amason and sailed Into Newport. Th arrival of tbe French troopa, while Inferior In number to v. bat bad been an ticipated, was hailed with grateful senti ments by Washington and congress. Lafayette was Impetuous and urged Wash ington to begin aggressive measures st once, even If the Engtsh did have tbe ad vantage In numbers snd a stronger naval force. But Count de Rochambeau' domi nating trait discretion was admirably dis closed tn a quiet, restraining letter to Lafayette: "It Is always well, my dear marquia, to believe the French Invincible, but I am going to tell you a secret. In sn experi ence of forty year I bsve found none easier to conquer than those wbo have lost confidence In their leader, and they lose that Immediately when tbey find them selves sacrificed to one own particular alms and personal ambitions. If I have been ao fortunate to retain the confi dence of my soldiers, it is only because I am able to say. after a most scrupulous examination of my conscience, that of the 15. 000 who bare been killed when under my rommsnd I cannot reproach myself with tbe death of a enngle soldier." Reowest for Mere Mew. As a result of a conference General Ro chambeau sent his son back to France to convey and explain to tbe minister tbe want of hi own men and those of Wash ington. General Rochambeau, in bis own account of tbe independence ot tbe United States, given a graphic statement of affair at that time and a detailed tory ot the part hi eon took In the history of tbe wr. "It bad been settled at tb conference In Hartford that be should proceed thither with tbe particulars and tbe result of an interview, together with a memoir contain ing the full account of the additional troop, vessels and specie which were needed. Tbe letter Item wss the more es sentlal, as by heavy loans which bad been contracted the pay of tbe troopa was pro vided tor only until January L My son bad commltteed to memory tbe whole of my dispatches, eo as to be able to render full verbal accounts to the ministers, lest be should have the misfortune to fall into tbe bands of tbe enemy, tbe dispatches be taken from him and he be set at liberty on parole.' General Rocttambeau's on put to Bra Oc fober 28, wltb M. de la Peyrouse. Tbey passed through tbe midst of tbs English ships during a gale of wind which pre vented the English from following. General Roc ham be a a continues: "M. de la Peyrouse returned In February. We learned that my son and be bad found on tbelr arrival at Versailles, among other things, that tho English, having declared war on tbe Dutch, were taking them by surprise in all their possession In which tbey were unprotected; that France wa making actlv preparation! to send out both military and naval forces to tbelr as sistance, and, lastly, that all tbe circum stances would not allow of further effica cious attention being paid to tbe wants of America. Tbs king, however, ordered M. de la Peyrouse to return immediately to America and take with blm 1,600,000 francs which had been deposited at Brest for tbe lsst six months, to be carried out by tbe Second division. His majasty further di rected that Colonel Rochambeau (hi on) should be detained until be could deter mine In council on the reply to be made to the request of the Americans. "My eon arrived la Boston on Msy t on board tbe frigate Concord. In company with M. de Barros, who had been appointed to the command of tbe squadron, vice de Chevalier de Teraay. My dispatches statsd rhlch was at tba same time declared to congress by his majesty' minister, that different circumstances, among other an English fleet, superior la number, cruising oS Brest, bad prevented tbe sailing of tbe Second division In tbe preceding year, but that la order that America should not be deprived of tbe assistance which had been provided for it and which France had no desire to profit by, tbe government had come to the determination to aend money In lieu of troops, and that for that pur pose a sum of 6,000,600 francs bad been voted with which General Washington might provids tor tbe wants of bia army." None caa read a line of tbe dire neces sities, distress and suffering ot tbe men wbo were standing for freedom, with bleed ing and torn feet, naked and starved bodies without a lump la tbe throat and yet a aoag In tbe heart that relief did come In time! Lafayette bad provided bis troop with shirts, shoes and hats by pledging his private fortune, wbll General Rochambeau advanoed oa bia owa account 120,000 before the last gift ot France reached tbe eolonlea. Aa A his Ally. Among all tba books of Americana none occupy eo conspicuous or bo largs a apace as tboee on tb American revolution, and nowhere 1 tbe thrill ot Interest bo in tense aa tbe chapter where Rochambeau enters tbe story and where be leads his powerful brain to tbe exigencies of tb hour. He and Washington wer very close in this critical time. At Newport and on down tbe curving coast ah the day alnoe, military student have delighted to dwell en that series of tactical, strategical move. ments. until th English are finally netted at Tork town. A dramatic episode la that crisis Is not wanting In interest. Tb regiment of tbe Gatlnals grenadier were to lead tbe at tack. This regiment had been formed out of that of Auvergn, of which Count de Rochambeau had been colonel and which by its brave and honorable conduct bad earned tbe title of "d'Aurergoe sans tacba." When Rochambeau assigned tbe regiment their part In tbe attack be aald: "My lads, I have need of you thia night and hope that you will not forget that we hav served to gether la that brave reglmc-nt cf "Auvergns sans tacbe" Auvergne without a stain. Tbs soldiers replied thst if ths general would promise to have tbelr old name re stored to them tbey would stand to p killed to the laat man. He promise They kupt tbelr word losing a third of their complement. At th final reckoning tba king restored to tbem tbe appellation of "Royal Auvergne." General Roc bam beau returned te Philadelphia, received the thank ot congress alee two canae taken tram the English army, upon which was engraved hi rost-ef-arm with a laudable Inscription, and the American secretsry of foreign affair was Inetrurted to recom mend Rorbambau and his artry to tbe fa vorable notice of Loul XVI.
