Twe Hundred Men Witness the MatH
Wea,byf the Uptown Wde-Laacas-
trtaaa Retain. With (Ht Wallet.
On 8aterday a big cocking main took
place In the hill net far from Colombia,
which attracted a great deal of attention..
In the town of Marietta there are two
Mellen, of cock fighters. One party lives
In the upper part ofthe town and the ether
In the lower, J?or sorae time they have
been Jibing each ether about the merits of
their chickens and the talk, through news
papers and otherwise, led te this main. It
was arranged some tlme age and Washing Washing
ten's birthday, which scorns te be a popu
lar day for that kind or sport, was Axed
upon as the time., AU the necessary prepa
rations were made and the place selected
ler the event Is one or the best and most
popular In the county. It Ts In a secluded
spot,but tbe place Is well known te the cock
fighters and especially te the old timers.
There were several hundred persons In
attendance at the main, which was fought
entirely by day light. They came from
Yerk, Harrlsburg, Marietta, Columbia,
Maytown, Manbelm, ML Jey, Lancaster
and ether places. There were mere en
hand from Lancaster than any ether place,
as this town Is allve with game chickens
at present, and thore are hundreds of men
bare, including the best citizens, who are
always willing te leek at a "go."
The conditions of Saturday's innln wero
that each side was te show eleven birds.
The main was te be for 8100, ami each light
for as much money as the sldes saw lit te
put up. The fighting took place in an old
shed in which a pit or tan had been laid.
The number of birds agreed upon were
shown. Among thesn representing Upper
Marietta were several from Lancaster,
snd Chestnut Hill helped tbe lower end
parties out. When the cocks were wolghed
eight pairs fell In and It was agreed te have
that number of fights. Fer some reason
but seven were fought.
The birds from Upper Marietta and
Lancaster were handled by a well known
cock fighter and breeder of this city, who
possesses a thorough knowledge of the
business, and a colored man from Johns
town, who Is also quite "fly," looked after
the ether side. The fighting began in the
forenoon and lasted until evenlng, as con
siderable tlme was tuken In trimming and
heeling the cock?. Of the seven fights
Upper Marletta nnd Lancaster wen live,
getting the first four straight. 801110 of
the battles were geed and ethers were net.
Three birds from .Lewer Marietta turned
tail In the pit and ran like sprinters.
TITK IIOIITH.
Fer the first fight the Uptown people
showed a Ilenny cock of 4 pounds 3
ounces, and tlte Downtown people a deml
nick of 4 pounds 4 ounces. This was a
geed fight and it lasted for an beur, when
the deminick rati away. The betting en
this fight was cautious, as the ball had net
yet rightly opened.
In the second fight the Uptown people
pitted a gray muff of 5 pounds 12 ounces
against a spangle of the same weight. This
was a rlne fight, lasting about fifteen
minutes, and Uptown was victorious, the
spangle having been almost killed. Betting
was heavy. v
Fight Ne. 3 brought out a brown Henny
of 5 pounds 0110 ouuce from the Uptown
people. He was put against a black red
of the same weight. This was an extra
ordinarily geed light. The Ilenny cock
had his back disabled in the first pitting,
but he made a grand uphill fight for twenty
minutes and finally wen. The betting was
very heavy en this fight.
The Uptewners showed a black red of 5
pounds, 4 ounce in the fourth fight against
a black red of tbe same weight This was
a fine fight for twenty minute, when the
Downtown bird, which was said te have a
fine reputation, ran away.
Up te this time the Uptown poeplo had
had everything their own way, but they
lest the next fight. The Uptown men
showed a blue cock of 4 peuuds, 6 ounces,
and the ethers a black roil of 4 pounds, 10
ounces, which came from Chestnut Hill.
The fight was short and sharp. Beth cocks
were dead game and the Downtown repre
sentative wen.
The sixth battle was between an Uptown
black red of 4 peuuds 14 ounces and a
pangle of 4 pounds 13. This was a lively
fight of twouty-five minutes, but it finally
bjcatne tee sharp for the Downtewner and
he ran away.
Fer the seventh and last fight of the
main the Uptown poeplo produced a gray
Henny of 5 pounds 7 ounces against a
black red of 5 pounds 8. Tbe Ilenny cock
had one of his legs broken in the first fly
and be was easily defeated.
There were two side fights that did net
amount te very much.
Tbere was a great quantity of money at
the pit side and betting was very heavy.
Besides the nioney that was put upon each
fight tbe outside betting was grout. Proba
bly mero money can be seen at a geed cock
1 ig main than any ether sport with the ex
ception of liorse racing, and the majority
of men who attend them are liberal fellows
and care very llttlu for a dollar. Satur
day's crowd was of that klud, and plenty
of the men wero much gamer than the
chickens they backed. It is certain that
several thousand dollars changed hands
and the men from Upper Marietta were
big wlnners. The majority of Lancaster
sports wero with the wlnners and they
came home well heeled. Several Lancas
trians were with Lewer Marietta and a
number of thein were heavy losers. It Is
said that one man from Marietta lest bo be
tween $100 and $100 en the lewer cud birds.
Seme of the crowd in attendance at the
fight wero inclined te be quarrelsome.
They get full of rum and thcre were sev
eral lights that had net been previously
arranged. One man was knocked ever a
huckster's btaud where oyster soup nnd
otber edibles wero sold. The soup w as in
a large boiler and was all spilled. The
man who upset it was coverod with soup
from head te font, and the few lean oysters
that were In the kcltld hung te his clothing
Ue buttons. This fighting was the result
or getting 11 number of poeplo te the fight
who had 110 business thore. It has been
the custom oflate te give tee much pub
liclty te these fights in advauce, and the
result is that tee many kinds of peeple are
brought tegtther.

A GREAT DAM I1UH9T.
Arizona Territory Has a Disaster Much
Llke That nt Johnstown.
A dispatch from 1'roscett, Arizona, says;
The large sterage dam built across Ilassa
yampa river, by the Walnut Grove Water
Storage company two years ege, at a cost
of gjoe.000, gave way early en Friday
morning under the great pressure of a
heavytloed, and swept everything before
it. Forty persons are known te have lest
their lives. These! vice dam of tbe company
In located 15 miles below the resorvelrs, and
10 miles of the Hume were just approaching
completion. They also wero swept away,
although the cumpiny bus spent evor
$$00,000 en the enterprise of stoering the
water. The hydraulic mining niaehlne had
arrived and they oxnected te commenco
operations next week. The dam which
licld the waters back was 110 feet lengut
the base and tee feet ut the top. It was 110
feet thick ut the baseaud ten loot at the top,
forming a lake three miles in length, by
three-fourths of a mlle wide and 110 feet
deep. Lieutenant llrodle, lu churgoeftho
work, was absent ut Fhuenlx superintend
ing the shipment of machinery te the works
and was saved.
Net the Slightest doubt had been enter
tained of the safety of the dam, aud nu
merous houses hud been erected by miners
along the ceurse of the stream. These
wero uplilled by raging watera as though
they had been corks, and floated down
stream until they wero dashed te pieces.
The first Intimation of the appalling dis
aster was a sound roseuibling thunder,
and at the same Instant a perpendicu
lar wall of water lully fifty feet high
came rushing down the narrow vul
ley with almost incredible speed. For
tunately thcre were but comparatively
few poeplo living near the bottom of the
hillsides, and orthesuu large number wero
warned by the awful sound aud escaped te
higher ground. The vnlley widens ubove
Wickeuburg, and much of the town lies
upon the lowlands close te thoceursooftho
stream, and it is almost certain that the
vast body of water which rushed out of
the reservoir has carried away many
houses at that place.
Heavy rains have fallen for several daj'F,
and en Friday it was apparent that the
water in the lake was approaching the dan
ger line. The rain continued throughout
the night aud early next morning the water
rese te the top of the dam and cut a small
passage near the centre which rapidly
widened and docenod as the water poured
evor it. until in iess'thau twenty minutes
the little stream had become a rearing cat
arm t. This Is the first of the great sterage
reservoirs projectod in the territory.
Iho IlartoiiderH Organization.
The bat tenders of this city have decided
te form 11 social organisatien, and thirty
eight of them have signified their intention
of bccxMiiing members. The first meeting
was held en Sunday ev cuing of last vv eek,
