Corbett and Jeffries were willing to take purse of 325,000, but ms the club was ng to give more than a $20,000 purse both men agreed to accept the percentage. Corbett became irritated because ment inserted a clause that both men agree to soft bandages in the ring. Cor- bett said the club had no right to “stick ts nose” in the matter. He favored soft BANKRUPT MAY BUY HOMESTEAD AND FAIL United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals Renders an Important Opinion for Creditors. The United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals affirmed yesterday the doctrine that a homestead is secure against creditors of a bankrupt, even though the home- stead may have been purchased out of the vroceeds of the whole or a portion of the bankruot's estate. The decision handed down in_the matter of E. H. . bankrupt. The appeal was taken n order of the United States Dis- trict Court, sustaining the ruling of the referee in bankruptcy, whereby the bank- s homestead was held exempt. evidence was that Wilson, who in the grocery business for, $4843, his stock at reasonable prices and applied $190 of the proceeds to the ex- tingui of a mortgage upon the homestead and to the payment of credi- tors other than those who furnished the groceries. In rendering the opinion sus- taining the District Court the Court of Appeals says: The decided weight of authority sustains the doctrine that where a homestead exemption is allowed by State law the insolvent debtor may, out of the proceeds of a falling_business. eithér purchase a homestead or pay off existing incumbrances thereon and hoid the same against the claim of his creditors. Judge Ross filed a dissenting opinion. ————————— No Appointment Yet. Mayor Schmitz did not make the ap- pointment yesterday to the vacant civil service commissionership as he announc- ed he would last Sunday. The Mayor has his eyes on a new man for the place who has not been mentioned as yet. He tender- ed the position to the man whose name he refuses to divulge and the latter promised to say whether or not he would accept at 4:30 p. m. yesterday. When the time came for his answer he asked the Mayor to give him until to-day to make up his mind and the Mayor graciously acqui- esced. The fact that a dark horse has come upon the scene will throw gloom over the army of applicants for the com- missionership. B A BRIEF VACATION.

After a deal of talk | a compromise was affected. The princi- | pals and the club are to pay the referee ch to pay a proportion, and the official | must be selected three weeks before the | contest. Delaney announced that Jeffries wanted a Californian to officiate in the ring, and he took occasion to deny the stories which have appeared in the Eastern press that | the champion wanted an Eastern man. | Corbett said he wanted a Californian, but he did not want him appointed until near the nght, as he did not like to have him et e e e el @ OLYMPIC CLUB TO HOLD AMATEUR BOXING BOUTS Special Matches Arranged for To- Morrow Evening—Benefit for Landmark League.

Mrs. May Hayes, a pretty matron. only 19 years of age, living at 145 Twelfth street, appeared before Police Judge Fritz yesterday on a charge of grand lar- ceny preferred against her by C. A. Yehl, a bartender at 1201 Folsom street. She was arrested on Sutter street about 6 o'clock yesterday morning by Policeman Stelzner, to whom she was pointed out by Yehl. The bartender claimed that he had been in a saloon at the Clff with her, and while he was asleep in a chair she took $4 50 from his pockets and disap- peared. The case was continued till to- morrow, as was also a charge of va- grancy against her. Mre.

The most loathsome and repulsive of all living things is the serpent, and the vilest and most degrading of all human diseases is Contagious Blood Poison. The serpent sinks its fangs into the flesh and almost instantly the poison passes through the entire body. Contagious Blood Poison, beginning:vith a little ulcer, soon contaminates every drop of blood and spreads throughout the whole system. Painful swellings appear in the groins, a red rash and copper colored splotches break out on the body, the mouth and throat become ulcerated, and the hair and eye brows fall out ; but these symptoms are mild compared to the wretchedness and suffering that come in the latter stages of the disease when it attacks the bones and more vital parts of the body. Itisthen that Contagious Blood Poison is seen in all its hideous- ness. The deep eating abscesses and sickening ulcers and tumors show the whole system is corrupted and poisoned, and unless relief comes soon A AR R RRK KRR R R KRR R R R ER R R R R R R R AR KRR HRK e Mc Rave m sent back home in Keokuk Seldom has de bee so effectivel The | body was ta awa the w P t cide Theodore K.
