A “NEW LEISURE CLASS.” How It Originates and How It Oper- ates. From the New Ycrk Evening Post. An investigation of the city’s cheap lodg- ing houses reveals some interesting facts about those who use them, especially in these hard times. They are particularly a New York institution. Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore have, to be sure, a few places where the almost destitute wayfarer may be accommodated on the payment of 15 to 25 cents, but they offer few inducements beyond a night’s rest. The New York lodg- ing house, on the contrary, has some of the features of & regular club. Large, well- lighted rooms, supplied with the daily pa- bers, cards, chess and checker boards, dominoes, &c., are found in nearly all of them. There is also an office, in which an affable clerk is found on duty twenty-four There are also baths, lava- tories, &c., with a plentiful supply of hot and cold water, soap, towels and blacking brushes. The Bowery is the home of the lodgihg house, though there are many scattered about the city up as far as Harlem, and the business being an exceedingly profitable one, their number is constantly increasing. It is a mistake to suppose the lodging house is the abode of the tramp. That there are places where such persons can find a lodg- ing upon the payment of a small sum is true, but they do not frequent the lodging houses. They are not wanted either by the proprietors or guests, The chief patron of the lodging house is the chevalier d’indus- trie, age anywhere from twenty to sixty, the majority being under forty. Hard times do not affect his calling, nor do financial stringencies diminish his income. He is in- variably decently dressed, and if ever he misses a meal, it is not for the reason that the meal is not waiting for him. A. conversation with one of them gives a fair idea of how they live. He was a mid- dle-aged man with the appearance of a clerk. After a preliminary talk he told the story of his life. “It was born here in New York,” he said, “forty-four years ago. At fifteen I was put at work and learned a trade. For twenty- five years, or up to my fortieth year, I stuck to it and never expected to do any- thing els 1 had, of course, such amuse- ments us the average workingman has, and was, I suppose, contented with my lot. I lived with an old widow lady who was just like a mother to me, and beyond being inordinately fond of reading, I was, I have no doubt, just like any of the horny-handed sons of toil in the city here. I never had the faculty of saving money, and when four years ago I was seized with inflammatory rheumatism I was obliged to go to a hos- pital. I stayed there two months. During my stay my landlady died, and I drifted in here. I had never even so much as heard of a lodging house before, but the life suited me and I soon got to lke it. Man is a gregarious animal, and when one is lone- some, as I was, there is an indescribable charm about such a place as this. I fell in with an old fellow who had some very queer ideas about life—that is, they were queer to me then. He thought this country lacked one great charm, and that was a lei- sure class such as fs to be found in every country of Europe. It didn’t take him long to convince me that he was right in every. thing he said, and I enrolled myself as one of his disciples. To me it seemed a fine thing to have nothing to do and all day in which to do it. I had little money when I came, but I never had much. “Questioning me one day as to the amount of my earnings, [ found, upon com- putation, that my average wages for my twenty-five years of labor were about $8 a week. ‘Well,” said the old gentleman, ‘it will be no trouble for you to get at least that much without working, and, mind you, an income of $8 a week without being obliged to work for it is a great deal more than the same amount gained by labor’—a fact which I have often found to be true. I then entered a regular course of tuition under his guidance, and after a short time was able to go without assisiance. My lodging cost $1.5 a week, and my board $2, for which I had three good meals a day. I take only two now, and my dinner cosis me nothing. I have a few hundred dollar: put by, and have ample time to indulge my taste for reading, and in the four years that I have lived in this way I have en joyed myself.” ‘hen you make your living, as you call it, by begging?” was asked. “That is about the truth of it. I have a certain number of places to go to regularly. I am well known in them all, and my ‘pen- sion,’ which varies in amount from fifty cents io 35, is paid to me without ques- tion. You never beg on the streets, then?” ‘Never; I would die first.” Bayo there many engaged in the same tion?” s, the ‘leisure class,’ as my old friend called us, is constantly being recruited; but it is a case where many are called, but few chosen.” “How is that?” “Weil, as in other walks, especially of professional life, while there is plenty of room at the top, there is none at all at the bottom.” “What particular qualifications do you consider requisite for success in the call- ing?” “Knowledge of the world, suavity of man- ners, ‘nerve’ and patience. in short, just what goes to make up the successful man in any business.” “About how many of you are there in ww York at present?’ “I haven‘t any idea, but should think the number not far from 10,000,"" “Will the hard times tend to increase the number?” ‘ndoubtedly.”” “Then it will ultimately be a mot cult matter to collect your pension’? “I don’t think so. It will be simply a question of the survival of the fittest.” “What class of men drift into this sort of life?" “All classes, speaking generally. 1 should say professional ‘misfits, or men who have mistaken their vocation, predominate;young | men who have left home on account of pa- int, and men who have gone Ni number.

The spectators were nearly as crazy with j excitement as the men on the platform, and no one left the arena until after Mitchell's seconds had lifted him up and carried him to his corner. The iightning- like work of Corbett in the round had been too rapid for most of the spectators to fcl- low and understand. They saw Mitchell knocked down three times in rapid succes- sion, saw him stretched out senseless and bleeding, but how it was done was a ques- | tion which was asked by hundreds of men who had been staring at the deed they ask- ed to have explained. The fight lasted nine minutes. Those whose experience at the ringside enabled them to keep their senses and closely watch the oniy contestant in the ring who could act saw that Corbett had | struck Mitchell that last awful blow to not alone knock him out, but to punish him also. There was the hatred of years concentrated in that blow, and a rage that could not be controlied by Corbett Lim- self, which urged him to strike nis antag- onist while he was struggling in the arms of his seconds. The particular friends of Corbett .lid not heed the barb-wire fence, but jumped over, under and through it, regardless of rents and scratches, to embrace and congratu- late the champion. . But the pompadour hero was brief in hi acknowledgment of compliments, and soon threw his bath robe over his shoulders, jumped from the platform and fought his way out of the barn. He ran for nis dress- ing room, followed by a howling mob of whites and blacks, and in a few minutes was dressed and driving into town. Mitch bruised and bleeding face was washed and made as presentable as possi- ble, and he, too, half an hour after the battle was on his way to his temporary quarters in the Everett House. | The two men met in the court room, | Mitchell sending a friend to Corbett to ark eg t oe c the quest, ‘and the two pugilists exchanged the stereotyped compliments about cach other being the best man the other ever met. Corbett’s wife is at the St. James, giving naive interviews with the corresponuenis, all of whom she assures that Jim can lick anybody in the world. Jim himself has been pleased to say that he intended to let Mitchell fight for five or six rounds, but could not resist the temptation to knock him out in the third. Referee Kelly is mad as a hatter, and with good cause, at assertions that Corbett | fouled Mitchell. Corbett would have done so sure enough if he had been allowed, but he was not, thanks at times to the big referee's quick and powerful interference. What They Said After the Fight. | Corbett after the fight looked just as he | did before he entered the ring, except tat @ nervous and rather anxious expression was replaced by a smile of serene satisiac- tion. He said: “I really did expect the fight to last six or seven rounds, and went into the contest willing that it should. But I guess the fighting instinct got the better of me, for I couid not hola back my rignt. Mitchell is game man. No coward w yuld | back for his punishment as he | to return to New York with | and have a special | Mitchell was seen at the Everett House. He had laid aside his chaifing spirit. It may have received a severe shock in the ring. Anyway, he said seriously: “I met a man who is my superior in weight and height, and I now freely acknowledge that he is also my superior in science. He stopped me in three rounds. Does not that tell the story?” When asked the question of fouls, Mitchell indignantly said that no friend of his would make that kind of talk. Al Smith said: “Corbett could have gone to a dozen barns and licked a dozen Mitch- elis before he came home to Ginner.” Referee Kelly said he had done with refer- eeing fights. He declined to discuss the question of fouls further than to say that Mitchell was never struck when he had one knee on the floor. No one with any claim to know what was doue disputes the fair- ness of Kelly’s work in the ring. Bat Masterson did not conceal his chagrin nd disappointment. He is said to have lost a pretty stiff sum, but acknowledges that Mitchell was really licked in the second round. He said: “The first knockdown told the story. Mitchell could not land on Cor- bett effectively. He him in the mouth once and landed on his ribs, but his blows always found Corbett shifting away, and did no damage. . Referring to the talk of a foul Corbett said: “I did not strike Mitchell a foul blow at all; in fact, I did not hit him at all dur- Ing this collapse of his In the second round. But, had I seen fit to have done so, the blow would not have been a foul one, for Mitchell's knees were not upon the floor and he was not, therefore, knocked down, | as fighting men understood it. He had been knocked down, but was up off his knees— if not both of them, at least one. But I understand that Mitchell is perfectly satis- fied, so I do not see why any question should be raised about the circumstances now. But as far as that goes Mitchell had already fouled me by following me into my corner and hitting me on my neck after the | gong had sounded at the end of the first | round. So thi all, he did it. Editor Harding of the Police Gazette said> “Corbett proved he is a wonderful fighter | with gloves, ani he outclassed Mitchell just | like Bob Fitzimmons outclassed Jack Demp- sey. Corbett has gradually improved since he defeated John L, Sullivan, and Mitchell has grown stale and lacks the stamina and hitting power which he demonstrated when he fought Sullivan. Corbett is the greatest pugilist that America has ever had during the past three decades, barring none of the many champions. The only pugilist who would stand an outside chance of winning with Corbett would be Bob Fitzimmons, and his chances would oly be a little better than Mitchell's.” At the Everett Hotel Billy Thompson de- nied the story that Mitchell had offered his hand to Corbett when they met in the ring and that Corbett had refused it. is customary, of course.” said Thompson, “for the two contestants to rhake hands, but in this instance neither m .n made any move- ment in that direction. I wish to deny the report that Mitchell had applied a vile epi. thet to Corbett a few sevonds before the a’ lezged foul. No word was spoken by either | man and Corbett’s exnibition of a vicious temper was not the result of the insult from | Mitchell.” { ‘The defeated Englishman's manager adda- ed that Mitchell had declared since the fight that Corbett is the most finished fighter the world today. ‘And as fer myself.” added Thompson, “I never in all my life saw such a superb fight as Corbett put up | today. If he takes care of himself the cham- pionship will stay with him for many, many | years. Mitchell takes his defeat gracefully, had no harsh words to say of anybody nected with the fight. Roth Men Arrested. | Soon after the return of Mitchell to the Everett House and of Corbett to the St. James Hotel, both were arrested on wai rants, charging them with having commit- ted the offense of fighting by agreement. | The men were both taken to the court | house, where their bail was fixed at $7,500 each. Bonds for their appearance were fur- | nished. | Mr. J. D. Burbridge, with whom Corbett lodged during the day, signed the bonds for Corbett, and State Senator Genovar signed | for Mitchell. The charge against Mitchell, | it was understood, would be tried in the morning, but Corbett's case be post- poned to allow him to go to New York to keep his engagement at the Madison Square | Garden on Saturday night. In the event of Mitchell’s trial resulting in a dismissal of if there was any fouling at | | the charge, as recent precedents indicate will be the case, Corbett’s case will be dis- missed on motion ¢f his attorney without the necessity of his returning. The Question of Foul. | There was a good deal harsh criticism passed upon Corbett by many of the high- class sporting men and spectators at the But I understand that Mitchell is perfectly satisfied, so I do not see why any question should be raised about the circumstances . “There is no doubt,” he “that Corbett tried to hit Mi but he didn’t.

He didn't foul me in any way. I was just fairly beaten. “Will you fight asain?” “As regards Corbett I would fight him again tomorrow, but J don’t think that the result would be in the least different, but 1 would try it just the seme. I would fight eleven times and perhaps the eleventh me I might beat him.” “How about fighting with aaybody else?’ “Well, 1 said that I would not fight again after the Suilivan fight in ISSS. 1 fought him with two broken hands, but I have complaint to make. But this will be last fight, I think, sure.” “I don’t want him to fight,” put in Pony Moore, who was sitting by. “I have other business for him. “That isn't it it is a good, manly sport. Of course, there are a lot of goody goodies that think ft wrong, but what is there wrong about it? it is a manly sport, and by fighting wich gloves on there can be no danger nor any harm done outside of a few bruises.” eee --——_ - CRAVATS FOR LADIES’ WEAR.
