While the attendance at the St. Asaph track yesterday was the smallest of the meeting, the racing was excellent, and, as four favorites, a second choice and a third choice won, the public fared unusually well. It was a great day for Willie Sims, the crack colored jockey, landing his four mounts first, much to the profit of those who followed him. His success on Facto- tum was due, however, more to the swerv- ing of Grampian than to anything else, which took Drum Major out at the turn for home. tao results after The Star’s report closed wi Third 6 rece—Siz furlongs.

The best sparring exhibition yet given under the auspices of the Eureka Athletic Club was the one that took place at their club house acress the Potomac river last evening. There were but two bouts, but they were gcod ones. There was a large and enthusiastic attendance, The first bout of the evening was be- tween Johnny Glynn, champion of _Dela- ware, and Sol. English, champion of Mary- land. They were scheduled to fight fifteen rounds, Stannard and O'Brien were be- hind Glynn, and Kilrain and Billy Young looked after the Baltimure boy. Snapper Garrison, the well-known jockey, was the referee. The boys weighed in at 7 pounds, and put up as good a fight as has ever m seen in this vicinity. Glynn was a decided favorite in the betting be- fore the fight, the odds being as much as 10 to 8 in his favor. The result, however, did not justify these odds by any means. The contestants fought fast and furiously for fifteen rounds to a draw. Glynn was the aggressor throughout, and did most of the leading, but English met him in fine style, and showed himself a most clever sparrer. Although almost entirely on the defensive he took advantage of every open- ing and it was a question among the ex- perts if he did not gain the most points. Inasmuch, however, as neither had any special advantage at the finish, the referee felt constrained under the agreement be- tween them to call the contest a draw, a decision that met with almost universal approval. Bob Cunningham of New York and Joe Bateman of this cily each ex- pressed a willingness to meet either of the competitors, but so far as known no match was consummated. Morris and Dunn. The second bout of the evening was be- tween Fred Morris of this city, otherwise known as Madden's cyclone, and Bill Dunn of New Jersey, who has a long string of victories to his credit. Dunn is a white man, while Morris is as black as the tra- ditional ace of spades. They were sched- uled to fight twenty rounds, or more if necessary, to determine which was the better man. Fourteen rounds were suffi- cient, however, to show that the colored man as a fighter was a much better man than his opponent. Dunn showed himself a good sparrer and a hard hitter, but he was not at all equal to the task of knock- ing out his elusive colored competitor. He hit the latter hard and often, but appar- ently did not injure him severely, and was not so well able to stand the severe blows he received in return. He put up an ex- cellent fight, however, and it took fourteen rounds of good square fighting to determine the contest. Dunn was a better sparrer than Morris, but he couldn’t stand the game so well. At the end of the thirteenth round he was pretty well winded, while his antagonist, despite the many blows he had received, was in good condition. In the fourteenth round Morris went at his man like a whirlwind. Dunn was too weak to resist his rushes, and after receiving two hard left hand punches on the jaw, laid down and was counted out. Stanton Ab- bott, the English light-weight, and Billy Murphy of Boston, were the timekeepers of this fight. Lavigne Defeats Griffin. “Kid” Lavigne of Saginaw, Mich., de- feated John Griffin of Braintree, Mass., last night at the Seaside Athletic Club, Coney Island, at 124 pounds, in fifteen rounds. Timothy Hurst, the base ball um- pire, was referee. Neither fighter did much in the tame first round. In the second La- vigne did most of the fighting and fought his man all over the ring. From the third to the seventh Griffin was outgeneraled everywhere, and his gameness was com- mended. Not until the tenth did he im- prove and get in a few good right-handers. In the last and fifteenth round Lavigne rushed and downed Griffin as soon as the two reached the center. The police inter- fered and Lavigne got the fight. Smith and O’Brien Draw. More than five hundred men crowded into the Lafayette Social and Athletic Club at Boston last night to see the fight between “Mysterious Billy” Smith and Richard O’Brien. Both men fought hard. The fight was declared a draw by Referee Murphy at the end of the tenth round. O’Brien was the stronger by far, but he had not the pun- ishing power of his adversary. Smith was under the stipulated weight of 145 pounds, while O’Brien was six pounds overweight. Both men were strong and eager at the close of the tenth round. eae AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN.

An enthusiastic democratic meeting in the interest of E. FP. Wheeler for governor was 2a in Cooper Union, New York, last even- ing. Congressman Howard Mutchler of Easton, Pa., editor of the Easton Express and Northampton Democrat, was arrested yes- terday afternoon on a charge of criminal libel, preferred by Howard J. Reeder, can- didate for re-election as judge of the court of Northampton county. Among the speakers from other states whose services have been secured for :he closing efforts of the Hill democrats in New .York are Chauncey F, Black, the ‘atest democratic lieutenant governor of Pennsylvanfa, and James Kerr, clerk of the House of Representatives, A letter has been made publfe by the New York democratic state committee from the New York branch of the Granite Cut- ters’ National Union, indorsing the candi- dacy of Senator Hill. About 1,500 enthusiastic democrats as- sembled in the Louisville Opera House last night at New Albany to listen to a master- ly address delivered by Senator Blackburn of Kentucky. It was announced at: New Yosk state democratic headquarters last night that John M, Sheehan, president of the Sheenan Club of the twentieth ‘assembly district, had sent in his resignation from Tammany Hall, and that he and the members of his club, 118 in all, have joined te state democ- racy. At a meeting of the Reat Estate Exchange Honest Government Club in'New York last evening, resolutions were passed and Tam- many Hall was vigorously assailed.

Grace o of New York last night addressed a meeting of the state democracy of the eighteenth assembly dis- trict. Mr. Grace said, among other things: “I ask you to vote the ticket we have in- dorsed. It is unfortunate that we democrats should be called upon to vote for a repub- ican for mayor, but it is better to vote for an honest man like Strong than to put back in the mayor's chair a representative of the rascals who, at present, are in control of the city.’ — + eee Words of Advice to Colored Men. ‘There ‘was a large and enthusiastic gath- ering of, citizens of Meridian Hill at Abra- ham Hall, 15th street extended northwest, Sunday afternoon to hear an address by ex- Congressman Langston of Virginia. Excel- lent music was rendered by the Northwest Mission School, under the leadership of Miss Geneva Belt. Mr. Langston was introduced to the audience by lawyer Thomas L. Jones. Mr, Langston spoke of the necessity of training the mind of the colored youth along the line of industry, frugality and culture. He advised the negro not to be afraid of work, that labor, sacrifice and self-denial were indispensable elements in making a true map. The speech of Mr, Langston was in every way instructive and interesting. Mr. R. R. Burneit, the president of the Sunday School Lyceum, also made a brief address, urg- ing the parents of children to take more in- terest in the school. The next meeting of the lyceum will be on the second Sunday in November, 1804, ——._—_. Signed the Deeds. In the suit in equity filed April 9, 1894, by Wesley Fry and Elizabeth Fry against John H. Adriaans, for an injunction and the cancellation of a certain deed, Judge Hag- ner yesterday signed a decree for a per- petual injunction and for reconveyance. ‘The defendant took hn appeal to the court of appeals, Fry claimed that about March 30 last he was desirous of selling lot 24, sec- tion 8, in Barry Farm, and he requested Adriaans to negotiate such a sale for him. Fry, who cannot read, signed a paper au- thorizing, as he supposed, the sale of the real estate referred to, which he intended to be merely a power of attorney authorizing the sale of the one lot. Later, however, he was informed that the paper was an abso- lute deed to Adriaans of lots 24, 25 and 27, in Barry Farm, and part of lot 18, square According to Fry, he called on Adriaans on April 9, with his attorney, Walter C. Clephane. Adriaans, he says, refused to answer any questions put or to make any explanation of the transaction, but on being accused of fraud and deceit, assaulted Cle- phane and ordered him and Fry from his office. The suit was then instituted. It was decided in favor of the plaintiff, as stated above. zon ae Want a Guardfan. Julia O'Sullivan has filed a bill in equity against Fanny Ricketts,’ Joseph F.

During the examination of Police Com- missioner Sheehan before the Lexow inves- tigating committee in New York yesterday Chairman Lexow brought up the subject of police blackmail, and asked if Mr, Sheehan had not actually been aware that this trib- ute was being paid by the keepers of dis- orderly houses, gambling houses and others engaged in illegal or criminal business, He denied this, but said he had heard it occasionally said that such things existed. He had never been able to run the stories down, however. “Did you ever investigate them person- ally?” continued Chairman Lexow. “I referred them to the superintendent for his investigation. The board relies on the superintendent in all these things.” After some more sparring Mr. Goff said: “Inspector Williams charged Dr. Parkhurst with falsehood. He said that he had sent special officers to the alleged disorderly houses and could get no evidence. The courts convicted the men. Is not that prov- ing Williams an official Har?" Mr. Sheehan did not think so. He said that it was possible that some of the dis- orderly houses were started by the Society for the Prevention of Crime in order to make Inspector Willams appear in the ght of an “official ar.” “Tae Society for the Prevention of Crime would like to do it,” he sneered, “Do you wish to go on record as saying that the society of which Dr. Parkhurst is president would organize disorderly houses for the purpose of proving a police officer a falsifier?” “I did not say that,” cried Mr. Sheehan, boldly; “‘but I think the Society for the Pre- vention of Crime would do anything to run down Inspector Williams.” “Have you ever heard St sald that every police commissioner was corrupt and a bribe-taker except Commissioner McLean?’ the witness became angry at that. “I won't say whether I heard it said or not,” he sald. “I have read that some republican stump speakers had‘ expressed themselves in such a manner, and probably every one — are bribe-takers themselves. They “Did you ever make a demand for a re- traction b by any newspaper?” ber | “Haus the statute of limitations expired wet?” “How do you know?" “Why, I know it has not.” “What Is tne time; I ask you as a law- yer?” “It 1s none of your business.” A murmur of disapproval and a hiss or two were heard in the court room wnen the witness permitted his temper to get the bet- ter of him thus. Mr. Goff was unruffied. “I came here to tell what I know about the police department, and nothing else,” said the commissioner. It was shown by Mr. Goff from the rules of the police department that the superin- tendent was under orders of the commis- stoners at all times, despite Mr. Shechan’s statements tothe contrary. The witness, however, objected to this in- terpretation of the rules, claiming that it was the duty of the superintendent to sup- press disorderly and gambling houses with- out specific instructions from the commis- sioners. “I don’t see how the commissioner can excuse himself,” said Senator Lexow, ‘for his allowing the superintendent to take no action at all in these matters, of which he says he had knowledge, or at least the sus- picion that wrong-doing was going on.” Regarding pool selling, the commissioner said he was satisfied the sellers paid the police-for “protection,” but that he could not trace the money. He had heard that Superintendent Byrnes got it, but doubted the truth of this report. The committee took an adjournment until today. ——___+e+--___ ‘Trevor Battye and Hyland, who were sup- posed to be In straits on an arctic island, arrived at St. Petersburg Sunday.

The Epworth League of this city was to have held a mass meeting on next Monday evening, November 5, but has postponed it on acccunt of the fact thet Gen. Booth of the Salvation Army will hold his only meeting in this city on that evening in Con- vention Hall. For the same reason the executive committee of the Christian En- deavor Union of this city has also post- poned the meeting which it was to have held on the same evening. Other and small- er meetings have been postponed in differ- -ent churches, so as not to interfere with Gen. Booth’s meeting and the general de- sire to attend it. This desire is well re- corded on the reserved seat sheet at Droop’s, which thus early has numerous blue and red pencil marks on it. Conven- tion Hall is so large that there are, of course, very many seats still for sale, in- cluding many of the best in the house. It ought to be stated for the benefit of mem- bers of the Auxiliary League, who have been asked about tickets, that the only place at which they can be had before next Monday is at Droop's, 925 Pennsylvania avenue. . ee ~a ONE ENJOYS Both the method and results when Syrup of Figs is taken; it is pleasant and refreshing to the taste, and acts yet prom, on the Kidne: rm farted ls, cleanses the sys- che tem effectually, dispels, colds, head: aches and fevers and cures habitual constipation.
