Up- wards of 4,000 persons witnessed the contest, which, by tho way, has attracted more inter: est than auy fight in this eity since the Jask- son-Corbett meeting. At an early hour long betore the advertised tima for the contest to e, the hml was crowded with sport- arly every westorn city was re commen ing men. N presentod. M. J. Sullivan ncted as master of core wonies, whilo Jack Dempsev, the Nonpareil, officiated as roferce. Davis was seconded by the aoughty Bob Fitzsimmons and Danny Needham, champions in their respective classes, Woods' seconds wero Bat Mastor son of Denver, Martin Murphy and Paddy Gorman. eldom has an aggregation been found concentrated in & ring before in America. Tho sports predicted that the fight would not last over ten rounds. Betting was livel during tho day, although the wagors wer mostly small. At Corvett’s headquarters Davis sold in tho pools at 100 to 80, and thero woro plenty of takers at these figures on both sides of the house, Davis got his backing largely owing to his fight with Chovnski. There was first a preliminary event, a six- round o between Mick MeCarthy and Mar- tin McCaffery. It was a gular wrestling match and McCaffery was not init. Twe young fellows followed in a fricadly setto and then tho principals of the big event were called by the master of coramonics., Then the Fight Beg When Jack Dempsey appeared thore was loud cheering and proionged applause. Some one proposed three choers and the 4,000 sports went wild. Davis stepped into the ring fivst, looking fine as silk. He weighed 175 pounds. Woods came on with a hop, skip and jump, and looked as hard as leather. His weight was 150 pounds. First round—Time wa After some_feinting Woods lunded a light Tight hand body blow. After more fiddiing, Woods led, and_slipping around Davis’ neck nearly went to the floor. Second round—Davis Woods! the latter broke ground, but Davis failed 1o catch him. Davis urged him to the ropes, playing his right on Woods' ribs. A left’ drive landed on Woods' nose, with red. Third Round—Davis soveral times: rushed Woods to the ropes, but roturaed each time t0 the center of the ring, having inflicted but little aamage, Fourth Round—Woods led a straight left, falling stort, as 1id Davis' right for the body. Woods landed a good left on Davis check and ot in return a sounding loft on the cheok. Several rallies followed, Woods cleverly ducking. Jack Meant Bus Fifth Round—Woods' left glanced from Davis' jaw. Davis got in his loft on the face and the right on the 11bs in quick succession. Woods twive again landed on Davis’ jaw, the latter ducking vainly; thon rallied and re- turned a couple of hot ones on the jaw, stag- gering Woods. Sixth Round—Davis lad, falling short; then stopped n rush with aloft cross-counter. The men were now getting to close quarters, but taking no chances. Woods led with his loft and Davis uppercut him: Woods clung to tho corners and seemed disposed to chnch. Seventh Round—Woods countered with his left on the jaw and dodged an ugiy swing. Woods parried and landed a short loft on the point of tho jaw, staggering Davis. The lat- ter rushed to catch his nimblo _opoonent, but his swings generally fell short, though near tho close of the round helanded two hot onos. Fighth Round—Woods was sent to the fround tivico With TIght swingas the round closod. called at §:20. landed his right on es3. Billy Played Possum The ninth opened with Davis chasing ‘Woods around the ring on a run, Woods hid- ing his face and Davis landing his right on the back of the neck. Woods suddenly re- taliated with his right on the jaw, dazing Davis for o minute. They then slugged ench other at close range until both. were grogay, hammering each other about the head, Woods with half avm drives and Davis upper cutting with his right. Woods caught him as the gong sounded and Davis went down, half Tose, then fell and was carried to his coruer. ‘Tenth Round- Davis recovered quickly and rushed Woods around the ring gamely, essaying to land his powerful right and going to the floor with his own effort. He succeeded in stopping Woods’ drives for his aw and puzzled tholatter. Eleventh Round—Davis slipped to the floor in his own corner from the effects of Wooas' two-handed drives. = Ho was dazed and bleoding freely from the loft eye and mouth. He appeared blinded with blood, but played right for Woods' jaw, making the Iatter wary. ‘T'ne round closed with Woods smash- ing Davis in the mouth with his right, This Settled It Twelfth Round--Woods appeared tired, but more confident; Davis sbaky, but game, laughing us Woods brought blood from the injured oyo with right hand smashes. Ho frequentiy essayed his right, but Woods avoided him. Thirteenth Round--Woods showed a swell- ing ou the left cheek, but othorwise was un barmed. Davis landed on his jaw lightly with his left. Woods caught Davis on tho head with a right smash, sending bim to one knea. As he rose Woods sent him to the ropes, smashing ms helpless opponent with his right. Davis was unabie to respond and appeared to be hangiug on the ropes. Fitzsimmons rushed into the ring and a fight was narrowly avoided between Woods and the wrathy New Zealander, wno claimed a foul. ~ Denverites sided with thoir mau, and the ring was soon filled with struggling, ex- citod men. Dempsey endeavored vainly 1 restore order. The police then entered the ring and Davis aunouncing he would give up tho fight, the referee pronounced in favor of Woods. Charges of Foul, It was claimed that Woods struck Davis nearly five secouds after the gong struck in the critical ninth round, but the foul, if such it was, was condoned by Dawis' 'seconds allowing the fight to go on. The confusion was such at the time that few of the specta- tors hoard the sound of the gong. Opinions diffor as to whother or nov_Davis was act- ually over tne ropes when Woods struck him in the Iast round, but the decision of the refereo was agalust this. Davis was pun- ished badly. Woods was little marked. NATIONAL LEAGUE.

In such plays religion fiuds her chiefest ally for they emphasize the truths that for 1,900 years have possessed the world. In tho first act of the play, which was pro- auced last cvening at Boyd's to a magnificent first night audionce, thero are two proosals of marriage—both efused; two incipient proposuls—both encouraged; one business failure: ono dafaleatiou; one fight, on th stago, fisticffs; one suicide—off tho stage the presentation of a valentine; u eriminal's confession of guilt, and a betrothal With this vivacions and healtnily live opeutng *Men and Women”' starts off on career of the most exciting character. ‘There are no bad women tn the play, thanks to the authors. All are good, some of them angels. But there ave a good many bad men, who, in the final moments of tho play, roach the grand climacteric by confussions of ¢ dona 1n youthfal days when the blood ran and their final forgiveness by the parties And thoy forth 1o new ted lives with the benediction of the Nazarene ringing in their ears There is one scene in the play which would mako any drama stand out from the long of the commonplace. 1t is a midnigh ing of the diractors of the Jefferson National banlk catled to aiscuss the precarious condi tion of the bank und its possible closing on the morrow. The defalcation of a lot of bonds 1s known. Suspicion points to the as- sistant cashier as tho thief I'hen comes his cross-examination by the counsel of tho bank (bis enemy) and Teabury's iudignant When Baby was sick, we gave her Costoria, When she was & Child, she eried for Castorin, When sh Miss, she chung to Castoria, When she had Clildren, she gave thew Castoria, donlal. Governor Rodman, an ex- convict, rison from & 'prison ocell at Aublien to the executive of o great state, offors to loan the monoy that shall tide the bank over, the refusal to accept it, all work- ing up to P’rescott’s (the cashier) silent con- fossion, is crispy and sharply interesting. It touches just the fringe of tragedy, and then, to cap the climax, Prescott tenders his hand- cuffed hands to tne officer; the guiity man at tis found. All this bit'comes with a sort of solomn dignity after the excited interview Prescott has had with his financeo, Agnes, and tho curtain closes out a picturo that is raro in dramatic art It is inde & pleasuro to testify tothe jorits of the excollent organization now pro- ducing “‘Men and Women" Boyd's. "Throughout, the nicest vossible diserimina- tion has been shown in the selection of tho vlayors and they give a beautifully rounded verformance, Mr. Honry Dalton piays an open handed Hebrow gontlemen, Isracl Cohen, the prosident of the vank aelightfully. In' fact, ho pro sents to the stage a new figure—a high minded, gentlewanty Jew, and it s singulatly rofroshing to seo him us he doos st in the world and not as “Sam'l of *oson’” would have us believe William Prescott, tho cashior, was well piayed by Byron Douglas, & now comer in our midst, and in manner and mothod sug- osted Henry Miller, formerly wilh the Frohmans. Mr. Charles Mackay made a groat deal out of young Seabury, tho hot- headed youth, ready to fight at tho drop of the hat when it came to a question of his honor. Mr. Theodore Hamilton as Governor Itodman, has a wondorfully sympatheti roice and his reading in act ono was a gem of rest diction. In manver and make-up he looked every inch a commanding figure, such us you find in theso western states at the head of the government. Mr. Coarles Gotthold, a sterling nctor, played the villain, Calvin Steadman, with a nonchalance that showed the true artist Miss Esther Lyon as Agnes, n Dickens pe of woman, plaved the part with con summate ability. Tho intense_sentimontal- ity of the partis hard to deal with, but thero never wus the least show of overactivg here, 1 the lady scored the triumph of the evea- ing. The other femalo characters are won- derfully weil taken while the male members of the cast show themselves actors deserving of individual mention. il O HAS A BIG JOB, Goddess A 1 Suits, o more the Omaha lawyer has reasons for being glad.

After_making the usual announcements Judges Davis and Estello devoted the morn- ini to getting the trial juries ready for the term. Ninely jurors had been summoned and forty-six responded to their namos. Of this number, sixteen wanted to be excused. Some of them went butmoro staid and will serve the county at $2 per day. C. N.

Joln I, Potter, a lad of 17 years, had been arawn, but was excused, atd the judges wonder how his name got into the box, as he declared upon his oath that he had never voted.
