He Knocked out Three Men. pilling, of Roclester, Lasts Only two Minutes —Tom Chaffee, of Philadelphia, Has Enough in Fifty Seconds—dJoe Lannon , of Providence, Downed With a Rush. New York; Feb. 16.—Ten thousand people saw the boxing—if such it may be termed —at Madison Square Garden to-night, and ten thousand people were trampled on, bruised and clubbed ia try- ing to give up their tickets. The crush at the door was something unprecedent- ed and an inadequate force, even aided by rosewocd clubs, freely used, was ut- terly insufficient to cope with it. This great crowd was attracted by the adver. tisements which for three weeks past have announced James Corbett, of Cal- ifornia, would meet three men of his own class tonight. Joe Lannon, for- merly John L. Sullivan’s starring part- ner, was the only one of the three named, William Muldoon, the wrestler, was master of ceremonies. When Corbett appeared he was greeted with great ap- plause. He weighed 195 pounds. Mike Donovan and Mike Daly were behind Corbett Four ounce gloves were used. Spilling, of Rochester, was the first man to meet Corbett. The men had only been fighting two minutes when Spilling was knocked down, only to rise and be knocked down again, Po- lice Captain Rilly sprang to the ring, but did not intertere, for Spilling was clearly knocked out, Tom Chaffee, of Philadelphia, next appeared and put up his hands against Corbett. Chaffee stood up just fifty se- conds wiien he fell to avoid punishment and was go clearly at the mercy of the Californian, that Captain Reily ordered him off the platform. Then came Joe Lannon, of Provi- dence, the conqueror of Godfrey. Be- fore they shook hands, however, the po- lice ordered Corbett and Lannon to put on six-ounce gloves, and they had to do so. In the first round Corbett, try as he would, could not reach Lannon with any force. The second round was a re- petition of the first, Lannon fighing on the defensive and Corbett being unable todo mech with him. He got in one heavy blow on Lannon’s jaw, but that was about all. In the third round Cor- bett started in with a rush and forced Leunon all over the ring. Lannon did what he could to defend himself, but he was practically helpless, and when time was called and the bout was over he was very groggy, The Murderer of Jesse James Killed in a Colorado Mining Town. PueBro, Feb. 16.—Bob Ford was shot dead to.day in a saloon at the new mining town of Creede, Col. Bob and Charles Ford, under the dic- tation of Gov. Crittenden, of Missouri, shot and killed Jesse James, on April 16, 1882. They had beenimplicated in a train robbery and fled to Nashville, where they lived with Jesse James for several months. Bob opened negotiations with Gov. Crittenden for the betrayal of the fa- mous robber. He promised to bring in Jesse James dead or alive for the reward and free pardon for himself and brother Charley. Knowing that it was impossible to take Jesse James alive, he continued professions of friendship, and on the chance shot him through the back of the head in Jame’s own house, while the outlaw was hanging a picture. . . Both the Fords were arrested promptly, but released by the Govern- or. The alliance between Crittenden and the Fords killed the Governor as a political factor, and since then he has dropped into obscurity at Kansas City. The assassination caused a big reaction in favor of the James boys, and six months later Frank James surrendered upon the promise of a fair trial, and was promptly acquitted of murders and train robberies. The Fords appeared in a dime muse- um for several months after the trage- dy, but evertually drifted West, where Charley Ford two years ago died of consumption. Bob Ford has lived in Denver fora year past. Recently he went to the mining town of Creede, where he to-day met his death. Perils of the Mines. President Harrison Subject to Congress, WasHiNgToN, Feb. 16.—The follow- ing is the text of a message transmitted to congress to-day by the president : “There was passed by the last congress an act for the protection of the lives of the miners in the territories; which was approved by me ou the third day of March, 1891. That no appropria- tion was made to enable me to carry the act into effect resulted, I suppose, from the fact that it was passed so late in the session. This law recognizes the necessity of a responsible public inspection and supervision of the busi- ness of mining in the interest of the winers, and is in line with the legisla- tion of most of the states. “The work of the mines has its un- avoidable incidents of discomfort and danger, and these should not be in- creased by the neglect of the owners to provide every practicable safety possi- ble. Economies which involve a sac: rifice of human life are intolerable. “I transmit herewith, memorials from several hundred miners working in the coal mines of the Indian Territory,ask- ing for the appointment of an inspector under the act referred to. The recent frightful disaster at Krebs, in that ter- ritory, in which sixty-seven miners met a horrible death, gives urgency to this appeal, and I recommend that a special appropriation be at once made for the salaries and necessary expenses of the inspectors provided for in the law.” Sends a Message on the The State Saengerfest.

Already sufficient funds have been subscribed for its completion andin the early spring it will be ready for worship. Our people, last Saturday evening, met with a rare treat, with a very able and instructive address from one who for 2¢ years has been an Odd Fellow and therefore can speak from experience, and we believe his heart is as great as his ability. For more than an hour Rev. Wharton, of Tyrone, held his audience spell bound in his discussion relating to the order’s work ana principles. From its earliest inception, in 1743, in Manchester, England. Founded by one Thomas Wiley. After the order had flourished in the old mother country for almost one hundred years its members showed themselves capable of self government and all of one opinion that independance wasa necessary condition to growth and in 1819 Thos. Wild with five others instituted the first Lodge in Baltimore. Pennsylvania alone now numbers almost one hundred thousand members,who come with their means and con- tributions to relieve the sick, bury the dead and educate the orphan by the expenditure of over sixty dollars per hour crushing out suf- ferings and bringing in comtcrts to the millions of distressed humanity, on which is founded their three fundamental piliars Friendship, Love and Truth. Odd Fellowship is still progressing in Centre county, and now has a membership of nearly one thousand members alone, On last Monday, the 15th inst, the Grand Lodge of Pennsylva- nia held a special meeting, at Pennsylvania State College, for the purpose of regularly insti- tuting State College Lodge No. 1032. In con- sequence of tha unavoidable absence of G. M. Ed. Marsh and G. Sec’y Nicholdson who were engaged in another part of the State, by vir- tue of his office D. D. G. Master W. B. Rankin, donned the robe of honor and exercised his authority to institute State Co!lege Lodge No. 1032, with the assistance of the following: P.G.G. M. Wm. H. Fry, of No. 276; G. S,, R. B.

One of the Inmates the Culprit—He Had Recent- lg Escaped but was Returned—He Fell a Vie tim to the Flames—The Other Persons who were Confined were Rescued. JAacksoN, Miss., Febuary 16.—The four story main building of the state as- lum for the insane was set on fire about 5 o’clock this morning by J. H. Brown, an inmate of the institution. Brown had recently escaped and was only re- turned yesterday. He stated to his at- tendants that it would be all the worse for him and them that he wus again con- fined. His threat was soon put into ex- ecution and he himself was unable to escape from the building and was burn- ed to death. a vietim of his insane deed. There were 600 inmates in the build- ing, most of whom were asleep when the flames were discovered. Through the superhuman exertions of the superin- tendent, Dr. Mitchell, and his suberdi- rates, all were saved and transferred to the wings disconnected from the burn- ing pile. Such a scene as -the safe transfer of 600 more or less violent maniacs from such a conflagration to a haven of safety without other light than that from the flames of the building can better be im- agined than described. After performing this extraordinary feat, Superintendant Mitchell, just up from a sick bed, stag- gered and fell under the fearful ordeal through which he had passed and was conveyed to his residence. Assistant Noland Stewart, after heroic and suc- cessful endeavors, also succumbed. The building was of briek and had a frontage of about 500 feet. It is situat- ed about two miles from the city proper- ty. The loss to thestate is probably $20,000. There was no insurance. The , legislature this afternoon appropriated $25,000 to meet immediate. demands. “This watch is $800 ; solid gold case.” “That's too much money. What's the price of that silver one ?" “That isn’t We ask $1,000 for that watch.” | i Garza Appeals to Harrison. Sax Antonio, Tex., Feb. 16.—Revo- Intionist Catarino E. Garza, sate at Coahuila, on the Mexican side of the river, with the Yaquis Indians at his back for shelter, is busily inditing stir- ring manifestoes against ‘that tyrant, Porfirio Diaz.”” His latest accuses General Stanley of entering into “clan- destine treaties with Diaz to murder Mexicans residing in Texas,” and calls upon President Harrison to correct the outrage. He declares that the revolu- tion has spread in most parts of the States of the Mexican Confederation. New Advertisements. A FARM FOR SALE OR RENT.

Whether the Democratic candidate shall be Grover Cleveland, representing the cause of Tariff reform, or any one of a number of other Democratic leaders who can be elected, repre- senting all the elements of opposition to Re- publicanism, the World will be foremost in his suppcrt. The next President must be a Demo erat. But while doing this the World will give to its Republican readers, as it did in the recent campaign, a fuller and better report of Repub lican meetings and speeches in the Pregiden- tial canvass than the organs of their own party print. The World never colors news : it photo- graphs events. The World isnow printing an average of over 330,000 copiesa day. It has made anet average gain of 36,000 aday during the past year. It will circulate next year, on the basis of this increase only, at ieast 120,000,000 copies of the ablest, strongest and best Democratic newspaper ever printed.

The World puts heart and conscience into its work as well as brains, It isthe handmaid of Justice, the unraveler of mysteries, the Jde- tecter and the terror of Crime, the friend of the friendless, the help of the poor, the strength of the weak. Realizing that its pow- er comes from the People, it gives back to them freely whatever service its influence and its resources enable it to render. With a perfect equipment, a thorough or- ganization, capable direction and a deep de- termination to move on and up to higher ideals and greater achievements, the World wishes 1ts multitude of readers a Happy New Year, and confidently bids them to expect from it during 1892 even more wonderful things than it has already accomplished. ~~ 37-5-4t.

It not hav- ing the particular article called for they at once wire the importers or manufactur- ers for samples and through that courtesy we save much time as well as money.
