SATURDAY, GOVERNOR CANNOT STOP IT May Provent the Fight but Corbett is| Bound to Talk. MAKES A WORDY ASSAULT ON FITZSIMMONS | Insists that Hix Opponent Ix Trying Hard (o Snenk Out of the Fight and that He s a Rank Fakir, NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 4.—Corbett and | party reacied the city this morning over the | Louisville & Nashvile road. They came from Montgomery, where they gave a show last night. The train was an hour or two late and in consequence there were but few people on hand when the train came in. In the party were William Brady, Steve 0'Don- nell, Duncan O'Donnell, John McVey, Billy Delaney, Young Donaldson and Jim Daly. Mrs. Corbett was also along and she stuck close to her husband and heard every ques- tion that was propounded to him by news- paper men as well as nis answers, “I sec Fitzsimmons has been doing some more talking in his trip through the south,” sald the champlon after his party had ar- ranged their traps. “Do you know what I think of Fitzsim- mons? He s a fakir of the worst kind. He is trying his mightiest to get out of this fight, but I will fight him if I have to chase him to a corner so that there could be no escape. I wish the fight was tonight. I am anxious to get at him, for he has been mak- ing some statements that are absolutely false. “I am ready to fight within an hour," said Corbett. “I wish that the battle was to take place today in the Oiympic club. Nothing wekld please me better. In my fight with Sullivan there was none of the worry that I have encountered in this match and which also arose with my fight with Mitchell. When the profession lost New Orleans they lost tho best city {n America for & champion- ship. “Now don’t you think a man in Fitz- simmons’ position should bo a little more circumspect in his talk? Every dollar, with the exception of $2,000 of Fitzsimmons® stake, has been scized. Now, supposing I do win the fight, I may get the short end of it after all. Fitzsimmons had better be making ar- rargements to carry out his end of the con- tract instead of roasting me. Now, if Fit simmons would only put up his stake with- out any string attached to it and agree upon a referee there is no governor on earth who could stop the fight. We could go into some deep forest where men very seldom are seen and settle our differences. I would be willing to fight him for thes take alone. “Fitzsimmons is a sly one,’ continued the pugilist, who by this time was worked up. z 1e worked things very smooth after that little affair in Green's hotel in Philadelphia. Why, do you know, Fitz was beastly drunk that day.” He had been making the crack that he was going to pull my nose the very first time that I saw him. I saw him in the hotel that day and noticed that he was jagged. I went up to And asked him if he had made such a statement, and his reply was that if he did he was willing to stand up to it. T simply caught his nose and gave it a tweak. Immediately after he jumped into a cab and drove around to all of the news- paper offices and gave them the highly colored tale that was published. “Where would you prefer to fight; in Mex- ico or the Indian Territory?’ Corbett was asked. “If 1 have any choice in the matter, I would much prefer to fight in the Indian Ter- ritory. 1 would then be in my own country, and not run any chance of getting the worst of 1t.” Do you think the fight will take place?" “Well, you can bet all of your money that it will,”” replied Bill Brady. ~“Anything that Dan Stuart has anything to do with is bound day for.

Stuart has given his word to the sporting world that the fight will take place, and he will carry out every promise he has made. Corbett and party were driven to the hotel. He will give a performance at the St. Charles theater tonight and leave for Texas tomorrow morning. It Is the general opinion among local sports who know Corbett well that he is not the same Corbett of old. His face is very much pinched and there is a dull look about his eyes. During the day the cham- plon visited the Southern Athletic club and did some little work. THINK CORBETT WANTS TO BACK OUT. The opinion was expressed tonight by cer- tain sporting men that Corbett is building up a foundation to get out of his fight if possible. It was noticed that to every news- paper man who interviewed him Corbett talked only on one subject and that was on the many strings that were attached on the Fitzeimmons stake. 1In every conversation indulg=d in today this subject would be prom- inently brought forward by him. When it is taken Into consideration that the attachments against Fitzsimmons' money in Dwyer's hands were published more than a month ago and Corbett rafrained from saying anything about it at that t'me, the fact gives rise to the suspicion that the conqueror of John L. Sullivan has kept this as his last card. Corbett very bluntly said today that Fitz- simmons would have to have $10,000 up in the stakeholder's hands without an attach- ment tied to it or he would not fight. He claims _that Fitzsimmons only has $2,000 of the side bet up, the other $1,000 being at- tached by the Metropolitan Printing company and Attorney Fricnd, formerly the Austra- lian's lawyer. Corbett is claiming today that Phil Dwyer told him just before he left New York that it he won he would get but $5,000 of the side bet. Corbett also says thut he will fight Fitzsimmons for the side bet alone, but puts in the old provision that $10,000 unattached must be put up. Local sporting men are of the opinion that this provision of Corbett's will oceasion considerable trouble before Oc- tober 31. Just why the champion is anxious to hava the referee selected at this time can- not be learned. Both Corbett and his man- ager, Bill Brady, are clamoring for the ref- eree’to be chosen immediately. When asked what difference it would maks in selecting the referee the day before the fight they said that in such an important case as this the referee should be known s:veral wezks ahead in order to give confidence to the public. The general feeling in New Orleans Is that the fight will never take place. Information from a private source recelved in the city tonight says the Choctaw tribe in Indian territory intended adopting Corbett as a member of their tribe In order that the fight may b2 brought off in their nation When asked what he would do under the circumstances Corbett sald that he would ac- cept the honor. He further said that he would paint his face red, wear an eagle feather in his halr and do anything to make himselt look like an Indian, just so he could Saved by Hood’s Is the experience of many who take Hood’s Sarsaparilla.

SAN ANTONIQ, Tex., Oct. 4.—The gentle- men who_secured a- concession from the state of Tamaulipas to have a prize fight | and bull fighting tournament in Nuevo Lar- edo, have sent & gentleman, who is rolated to President Diaz, to the eapital to secure immunity from Interference. Dan Stuart has agreed to wait three days, when this gentleman can secure an audience with the president. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 4.—W. R. Vice, ex-vice president of the old California club, believes that If the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight were brought off here in California it would mean over $1,000,000 profit to the state. “Dud” White, one of San cisco’'s prominent sporting men, had a talk with Mr. Vice today about ralsing a purse for the fight to come to California. The sporting men_interested in it are very secret about the plan. It will be some days before anything definite can be known. The talk has reached the Olymple club manager, W. J. Kennedy, who said today that he would give Corbett and Fitzsimmons a chance to box a limited engagement befere the Olympic club. The Australian, however, would object to this, as Corbett is popular in_the Olympic club. WICHITA, Oct. 4.—A special to the Eagle says that citizens of Blackwell, OKL, met and raised $35,000 today to secure the Cor- bett-Fitzsimmons fight for that place. They claim to be able to pull off the fight there without molestation from any source. They have opened up telegraphic correspondence with Manager Stuart concerning the mat- tes. FITZ ALSO CALLS NAMES CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex., Oct. 4.—Fitzsim- mons goes right along with his training, not- withstanding the legislature's action at Austin. He says he has an ofter from re- sponsible parties to pull the fight off should the Florida Athletic club fail to do so. He says he is determined to give Corbett no possible opportunity to escape him, and that the big dudo will either have to fight or leave the country branded as a coward who is afraid to meet a_men who is much smaller than himself. Today Dan Stuart wired Martin Jullan to come to Dallas at once on im- portant business. It is impossible to learn whether or not Jullan will go, or what Is the nature of the business. CITY OF MEXICO, Oct. President Diaz has said that as prize fighting has been forbidden by all the states in the American union, it should not be tolerated here. The press is almost unanimous against allowing the fight to occur in this country. HIBITION GAME. ONLY AN Profess t Up a Per- netory nance. The Milwaukee Western league team and a Western league and Western associa- idated team played a game at University park yesterday afternoon before a small and unenthusiastic crowd. These two teams are enroute for California, where will play during the winter, and stopped off here to play the University club team. Captain Abbott, however, was una- ble to get his men all in from the woods, and the two visiting teams were compelled to play a game in self-defense. The con- test was spiritiess and uninteresting.

NEW YORK, Oct. 4.—The new Manhat- tan Athletic club gave its first boxing exhi- bition of the season tonight, and the big gymnasium fairly filled with spectators. The first bout was between Mike Harrls of New York and Tommy West of Boston, elght rounds. Harrls was evidently in poor condition, as he went to the floor twice in the opening round through his exertions, and was badly used up witih u right hand jab, which lald him out so badly that the bell only saved him from going out. In the second Harrls was knocked down three times with straight blows. In the furious fighting which followed Harris got all the worst of it. West dealt a fearful blow with his left on Harrls' neck when they cam together in the sixth round, and Harri went to the floor for nine seconds. Harris was knocked silly in the seventh round with & straight right hand upper cut, and the referee awarded the fight to West. The next bout was a fifteen round go be- tween Frank Erne of Buffalo and Jack Skelly of Brooklyn. These men met last month at the opening of the Empire Ath- letic club, when Skelly was knocked out in the seventh. They were scheduled to fight at 12 pounds. Though both men fought warily, they got in some hard ones, Skelly getting rather the worst of it. Skelly was floored in theseventh round. In the ninth Arne landed three times with left and right on the body and chest and had a decided advantage. He showered blow after blo on Skelly's body and face. The Buffalo ho sent in a_telling right on the jaw, which knocked Skelly down and out, and referee stopped the bout, decliring Erne the winner after two minutes, twenty-five seconds fighting in the ninth and last round. oh TROTTED FIVE FAST HEATS. Avernge Time Was 2:00 1 the World's Record. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Oct. 4—Two of the three events today were won by favorites, and there was little money laid on the flld at 2 to 1 against Ella Belmont, who won the 2:%5 trot. Nightingale sold last night at $50 to $40 on Onaqua In the 2:11 trot, and after the lowa mare had captured two heats, the first one bemg a reduction of her record by three-quarters of a second, the Village Farm entry won the race, her first winning mile clipping oft one and one-half seconds from her record. Two new world's records were hung up on this, the closing day of the races. In the 2:11 class trotting, the five fastest heats ever gone, with an average of 2:091-5, were reeled off. Then W. W.

We are not much concerned to know how Americans treat an American, but we have had occasion to complain of the mauner in which they treat a Britisher when he 15 foolish enough to enter upon an international contest upon a distant shore. Mr. Charles Rose w'll undoubtedly be p mitted to prove that the Americans can organize a yacht race on fair terms, but his patriotic scheme, to succeed, must put Lord Dunraven In the wrong. The Royal Yictoria Yacht club, which has backed Mr. Rose's challenge, is apparently con- vinced that the Southampton boat, in the hacds of an American challenger, might be Fran- | quite | OCTOBER 5, 189 al'owed to do great things and perhaps what might be called to win the cup. Lo backing Mr. Rose with such an ebject the Roye Yacht club has assumed a responsibility as has never before been taken by British elab Charles! Day Times this morn; Rose, writing to the € in reference to his chalienge, says: “1 should like it to be un- derstood that) mccording to the deed of ift, Lord Dunraven could not again chal lenge with Vabkyrie II1 until after a contest with some oiher vessel had intervened, or until the expiration of two years. Bui in w_of the lhet challenge being through the Royal Yachtshuadron, 1 have informed 8ir Grant of that organizgation that if Lord Dunraven or ang other member of the Royal Yacht squadron Is desirous of isguing a challengef or 156, with another boat, 1 am ready to withdraw."” CLASS B CHAMPIONS TO MEET. Pixley and Bird to Ride a Mateh ot the Falr G dn Todny. At the old fair grounds this afternoon series of races will be ridden between B. Bird, champlon of Minnesota, and A. Pixley of this cit Mr. Bird comes here with a splendid record, having swept everything in Minnesota, Dakota and northern Towa. At Asbury Park, during the national meet this summer, he won the big two-mile handicap, riding from the 150-yard mark, defeating some of the best riders in the country, Pixley has also made a splendid record this season, hav- ing captured the Nebraska state cham- plonship, and_defeating Hackett, the win- ner of the Kansas champlonships at To- peka early In August. There will be three races this noon, a half mile, upon which limit of 5 has been placed; a one mile, with a limit of 2:12, and three miles, with a 6:456 limit, The prize will be a $100 bi- cycle, and the winner of the majority of the races will get the wheel. The races must, however, be ridden under the time limit or immediately reridden. Messrs, Denman and Potter “will make the pace on a tandem. Racing will be started promptly at 3:30 p. m. NERVOUS OVER COMIN a B W after- a time CONTES Cambridge Unc Results, NEW YORK, Oct. 4—The mbridge boys eased up a bit at Berkley oval this afternoon and the Yale athletes also stopped training. The latter left New Haven this evening and they will probably try the course very early tomorrow morning. Cap- tains Horan and Sheldon are both somewhat dubious as to the outcome of Saturday’s games. Both of them say the question of supremacy lies in the ~hurdles. World's records are not likely to be broken, but in- tercolleglate may be. When seen this afternoon by a reporter of the Associated press, Captaln Sheldon sald that the 100-yard dash, as well as the shot, hammer and broad jump contests, weré as good as won by Yale. He sald thé events of which he was doubtful were the 200-yard run and the hurdles, Captain Horan was sure that his men would win the 300-yard, quarter, half and one mile runs, but would not 'say how the hurdles might result. Foth capains seemed nervous over the hurdies, and these events may turn the tide of affairs and give the Yan- kees or the Britons a victory. Yale an rtain of the End of the Coursing M ABERDEEN, 8. D., Oct. 4.—The coursing meeting was brought to a close today be- fore a large crowd. The semi-finals of the Aberdeen derby for greyhound pupples whelped since January 1, 1894, wer off, and, as predicted in’ yesterday’ - patch, Merry Maid beat San Joaquin, Min- neapolis beat Oakes. Merry Mald is owned in Huron, 8."D., and San Joaquin in San Francisco, Thé (California dog was the favorite, and 2 to 1 was bet and offered against Merry Mald. The final course was not run, as the owners of Merry Maid and Minneapolis agreed to divide the first and second money. Minneapolis is owned by Mr. T. P. White of Minneapolis. In the | final course for the Palace stakes, A. P. Siocum’s Caliph Beat Dr. Van Hummel's Valkyrie. The latter s from Indianapolis and the former from Oakes, N. D. Wheelmen, Fall in Line. The six-day class A bicycle race, which opens at Bicyele park on Monday evenlng next, is attrdcting much interest in wheel circles, Already some of the fastest class A men in the Staté have entered, including Harry Edgehl, the messenger kid, Charles Pegau, Henry B. Tagger and C. M. Ed- ward of this eity,-and Charles A. Murray of Murray, Neb.The race will last two hours each’ night, and in addition to valua- ble prizes to he awarded the winners spe- clal prizes will be awarded each evening.

Awwociation Foot Ball. The foot ball match between the newly organized Caledonian club and the Young Men’s Christian assocation, to be played on the Young Men's Christian associa- tion grounds, corner Twenty-eighth and Dodge streets, this afternoon at 4:30, prom- ises to be an_interesting contest. The Young ~ Men's Christlan assoclation boys are all new men at the game, while the majority of thelr opponents are old-timers and think they know it all. The Chris- tians are beglnning to play good ball, and will give the visifors a stiff game. Murphy and Grifin Will Not Fight. LOUISVILLE, Oct. 4—The Murphy-Grifin fight, that was scheduled to take place here next Monday night, is off.

There has been a change In the plans of the Board of Health so far as dispensing with the services of Dr. Towne Is concerned At tho last meeting of the board it was de- cided to suspend every salaried officer ex- cept the commissioner, but Dr. Saville said yesterday that he would retain Dr. Towne. He had no time himself to keep up the rec ords of vital statistics, and there were several cases of diphtherla which required attention. There was a serious epidemic of diphtheria in St. Louls, and it would never do to be with- out an inspector of contagious diseases at this time, He would retain Dr. Towne in the office and trust to_the council to make pro- vision for paying his salary. oo AR WILL RUN WITH THE MACHINES, MEN, A J on are: John s City, Mo.; Emporia, Kan.; R Special Police Become Fire Depart- ent Drivers for a Time.

If it is sick and faded and with- ered and lifeless, nobody cares for it. It falls short of its object in being. It in- com plete—un- finished. Times without number women have been liken- ed to flowers and rightly. But what of her whose physical conditioncorres- ponds with the blossomless plant? What of the woman whom weakness has made not wholly and wholesomely a woman? Many things lead to de- rangement of a woman's delicate organism. It may be due to carelessness. It may be due to ignorance fostered by mistaken parents on the plea of preserving modesty. It may result from improper treatment of some minor trouble, Whatever sickness a woman seems always to affect the organs which make her a woman and these in turn work upon all the rest. There is much insanity among women. It is really surprising that there is not more The troubles peculiar to their sex work strongly on the nerves. They drag upon the most delicate nerves in the body and the inflanmation always present causes a debilitating drain that will encrvate the most robust Dr. Pieree's Favorite Prescription has brought comfort and health to thousands of suffering women.

'Burgheim Had Suffered, Paine's Celery Compound Syon Made Him Well, Publisher of Two Great German ‘apers, Can Now Work Fourteen Hours Every Day, Sleeps Soundly and Peacefully Lvery Night He Lives. Sleep 1s one of the things that_cannot_be put off from night to might.” The punishment for sleeplossness is worse than pain. It means a shattered mind. It often happens that a sudden stress of work or anxie robs one of the night's rest, The effect is soon apparent fn the languol headaches and listlessness that ensue. 1f_rapid and abundant means are employed to repalr the exhausted parts the nerves re- gain their elasticity. But if an unnatural atfon of sleep Is carried beyond the stretching power of the brain the whole nervous system becomes undone and prostra- tion results, Thousands of men struggling under great responsibilities or tedious work, overworked mothers and wives, shop girls who are forced to stand on their feet all day long, have little difficulty in convincing thelr anxlous, MR. MAX BURGHEIM. friends of the remarkable power of Paine's celery compound to restore their energy, re- new their vigor and make them strong and well. Here Is a letter from Mr. Max Burgheim, the well known president and manager of the Cinclunatf Freie Presse company. Mr. Burg- heim writes “The following statement may bs terest. I have been suffereing from sleep- lesaness, Insomnia, for many years, and although 1 have tried almost everything to & cured, consulting the best physicians and even going several times to Kurope, every- thing was in vain. “I did not have a night's rest for almost six years, that Is to say, 1 could not sleep for two hours in succession in a single nigh you can easily imagine what the effect on m had_been, After spending a fortune in trying for re- liet I had given up aimost all hope, and when 1 first read about Paine's celery com- pound 1 did mot have much faith in any- thing. But after having used so many remedies and consulted so many physicians in this country and abroad I felt like giving the compound a trial. The result was truly wonderful. “The very first night, about six months ago, that I tried Paine’s celery compound you' can imagine my joy when I found that 1 had slept six hours in succession, a thing I have not besn blessed with for so many years. 1 continued the us: for over three months with the same happy result, and although I was fearful lest the malady would come back on me, 1 can now say that although 1 have not taken the compound for months 1 do sleep every night peacefully and without interruption “You can easily imagine what this means for aman who works fourteen hours e day in the year and has charge of two newspapers.
