Sullivan. There siance in. the ert of eparring: were lawyers,’ doctors, school teachers, miners, merchants, local bruisers, undertakers, store clerks, and every other branch of business and industry represented, not even excepting newspaper men,all of whom went there with the avowed intention of frowning the proceedings down. Half a dozen women scattered through the throng looked rather lonesome but served to-relieve the monotony of the scene. Grass Valley, You Bet, North Bloomfield, ‘. Camptonville, Downieville,San Juan, Cherokee and about every town within a day's travel of this city, their most eminent citizens, a whole special train load having come _ . from the first named place. The orchestra consisted of a violin and piano. “ Shortly after eight o’clock the cartain rolled up toa deafening chorus of cheers, cat-calla and other demonstrations of enthusiasm from the audience, when Frank Moran, master of ceremonies and John L, Sullivan’s trainer, introduced Mike Gillespie of Boston and Steve Taylor of New York. The men were stripped to the waist and wore nothing but a pair of tights. Gillespie has a massive chest and head and limbs which seem to be out of proportion tohis body. He is quick anda hard hitter.Taylor is ex-champion heavyweight and towered above his adver. sary. He appeared to lack the agility of Gillespie and seewingly waited until that sloggec’s ferucious attacks were spent before going in. — Gilles. pie’s rash impetuosity frequently cost him several severe blows. Steve Taylor has an euviable record, being the first man who fought Johnny Dwyer. He also trained Paddy Ryan for his fight with Joe Goss. Thenext set-to was between J. L. Sullivan, the champion, and Steve Taylor. of course the chief attraction was tosee the man who had whipped Paddy Ryan, and had knocked out in four rounds a_ half dozen’ would be champions, His appearance was greeted with slight applause, aud work was commenced at once, Taylor acted on the defensive, and although a strong and scientific hitter he had but slight show against “the chief.” a terrific blow. force of them. ana McCardle. #. After an intermission of about’ five.minntes, Pete.MoCoy, middle weight champion, and Herbert A, Slade, the Maori giant, were introduced, Slade is of immense stature. He is less agile than McCvy, but hite Matt. Tracy and Joe McCardle, both of Grass Valley, next came” to the scratch and kept the spectators in in high glee. McCardle, who is a pupil of Tracy in the manly art, was no match for his teacher, and the tall veteran played with him during the three rounds in a manner that created the most unbouuded amusement and left McCardle breathless. “Mr. Pete McCoy of New York and Mr. Mike Gillespie of Boston !” was then announced in stentorian tones by the Master of Ceremonies, The two stepped on the ‘stage and formally extended their right hands to each other. ‘‘This'll be a” dead tizht,” remarked the M. of C, to the janitor, ‘‘fhese men haven’t spoken in two. weeks,” wary sparring in the tirst roand which closed with promiscuous slogging—the men lowering their heads and striking like battering rams. In the second round the premonitory symptoms of a ‘‘dead fight” were developed. Blows were exchanged with the rapidity of lightning, and both men-fairly staggered under the They were about
evenly matched and neither would yield an inch of ground to the other withouta most stubborn resistance, At the close of the round it was with difficulty the two could be separated, and they continued ylaring at each other for some seconds after Mr, Moran had stepped between them, The round was characterized by promiscuous slogging, and after two minutes’ ‘‘play” on each other’s ‘‘nobs,” Gillespie and McCoy returnued to their corners, bladly blown. »Matt Tracy then’reappeared, this time with Joe McKenna, another of his schelars, as an opponent, Young McKenna made a desperate effort to -plant his gloves in the physiognomy of the old man as the latter would shoye it forward in-easy reach, but each time he foaud himself beating . the air. This set-to was if possible funmer than the obe between Tracy There were lond-calla for Jan Morgan of Grass Valley and Jim Rodda of this city. The two left their seats ‘Tin the auditorium and went behiod the scenés, aud the crawd felt sure’ they would. try issues;‘but after a few moments’ delay Morgan came . before the footlights and said as he had not expected to be called on he had fut broaght his” sparring suit. ‘Therefore he insisted upen being excused, It said that Rodda was willing and anxious to go ‘on and see what kind of stuff Morgen was made anne hie.

Slade’s faculties wore alert in parrying the lightning like blows of the champion. serted that he is equally as scientific as Sullivan, but is baffled by the swiftness of movement and sledgehammer blows. Just at the close of the second round Sullivan landed one straight from the shoulder into the Maori’s throat. gered behind the scencs, threw his gloves violently on the floor and falling into a chair vowed in an undertone he would never ,put on the . cient househol: {gloves with Sullivan “again. ~“He~ }more.i wasn’t paid to be .all broke up, he declared to the Master of Ceremovegularity of the stomach and townies who rushed over tohim with a. els, malarial fevers, liver complaint, glase of water and began to sponge debility, rheumatism and minor aildown the injurud part of the mad Australian’s “anatomy.

Finally the A Doubting Thomias. The Tidings discredits the TranSCRIPT's statement that Superintendent Brigham of the North Bloomfield mine ‘‘expressed himself as fearing that the decree [Sawyer’s] may go so far as to interfere with drifc and quartz mining to the extent of prohibiting the dumping of any debris whatever in the water ways.” This paper did not in any respect misstate the substance of Mr. Brigham’s remarks, and there are plenty more men up this way who entertain the same fears as are outlined in the Baby Carriages, formerly foregoing quotation. for William, Brother Against Brother.
