Parfllt, a Youtifr Man, Dies From Hemorrhages. They Vera Brought on Br a Blow Ilecelved From Charles HcHale, a College Chum, Who lias Been Arrested and Committed to Jail. William J. rarfltt died at his home at Lost Creek No. 3, at 2:15 o'clock till morning, fifteen minutes before attain ing 111 majority, and from the oueete of a blow received in the face from Charles Mc IXali, of town. The blow brought on violent htfulorrhaBM from the nose, whioh eventually led to exhaustion and collapse. Dr. S. II. Brady, of Lost Creek, made heroic efforts to save the young man's life, but was unable to stop the fatal flow before collapse set in. MoIIalo, the young man charged with de livering the blow, was arrested In town last night on a warrant issued by Justice Green, of Wm. Peuu, and charging simple assault and battery on oath of I'srfltt's father, Will lam. Mcllale went with Constable Joe Peters before Justice J. J. Cardlti and entered $800 bail for trial at court. It was not thought at tlio time that Parfllt would dio. This morning, after the death, Mcllale was again arrested in town by Constable Petors and taken to tho Poltsvllle jail to await de termination by the conrt.or District Attorney, as to whether ball shall bo taken, rarfltt, as already Btated lacked fifteen minutes of 21 yean of ago. McHalo is about 10 years old. A Herald reporter called upon the parents of the deceased at Lost Crock No. 2 to-day. Mrs. Pariltt stated that at about 5 p. m. last Monday her son arrived home from Wood's Business College In town, where ho and Mo- Halo wero fellow students. Parfitt's eyes wero black and bluo ami tlicro was great swelling in tho region of tho noso between the eyes, llo refused to make a statement as to how ho sustained the injuries. He was bleeding profusely at the nose and the hem orrhftge continued almost constantly up to tho time of death. Mrs. rarfltt on Tuesday went to the business college and found that her son and McHalo had an altercation at the corner of Main and Oak streets after leav ing tho college on Monday afternoon The college offloials summoned McHalo to Mrs. Parfitt's prosenoo and he stated to tho uiothtr of tho victim that ho and Pariltt had a dispute about blowing papers at each other's desks and they were lectured by one of tho professors. When the college was dismissed the two young men met at tho foot of the iron steps on tho street. McHalo told Mrs Pariltt that her son pushed him away tauntingly and McHalo punched Pariltt on tho bridge of tho noso. Mrs. Pariltt also states that upon returning homo she questioned her son and learned from him that McHalo challenged him to go into tho basement under tho Ilynkawicz building to put ou boxing clovos and settle the dispute betwoen them, Pariltt declined and McHalo struck him in tho faco with his fist. Mrs. Pariltt said her son was always deli cate and up to seven, or eight years ago, sho had much trouble with him on account of hemorrhages at tho nose, but after that porlod ho seemed to outgrow the attacks. The families of both young men are very industrious and highly respected and tho affair is looked upon with deep regret by their friends. Breen's Itlalto Cafo Free I.uucli.

GIYES THEM A CHANCE TO TALK Both of the Principals Claim to be Opposed to Its Previsions, While Slier Will Ratify Anything the Fighters Agree Upon Fight to be Klnetos coped. Carson, Nev., March 11. Tleferee George Slier yesterday gave his Inter pretation of the Marquis ot Queens bury rules, under which Coruett and Fltsslmmons are to tight on March 17. He decides the men shall be allowed to strike In a clinch, with one arm free, and In the breakaways. This Is gen erally thought to be more to the ad vantage of Fltsslmmons' style of lighting than to Corbetfs. Fltsslm mons has long declared that he did not desire to have any hitting with one arm free, and demanded that the breakaways should be clean, with no punching. This Is generally thought to be a ruse on the part of Fitisim mons' crowd. On the other hand, Cor betfs friends claim that hitting with one arm free will exactly suit him. When asked If Ileferee Sller's letter gave him all he desired, Corbett re plied: "No. Ail I want is that we fight under the Marquis of Queensberry rules, such as I have always fought under. I carry those rules In my head, and I am very likely to conform tq them unconsciously while fighting. When a new construction Is put upon them I might forget all about It In the heat of the flcht and commit a foul unintentionally. Fltzslmmons has std he did not want to hit with one arm free, but everybody knows he wants Just that very thing. Everybody OF.OItQE SII.EIt. concedes that Fltzslmmons la a harder hitter than I am, and everybody con cedes that I am better at long range lighting and more scientific. However, I am not making any objections, na yet. I am going to talk It over with my trainers, and will say what I think later." The receipt ot filler's letter raised a storm at Cook's Itanch, and Martin Julian declared that In his ' opinion Corbett had a talk with Slier, and In duced him to Issue the letter. tfltzslmmons asserted It would not be right for him to agree on anything until both he and Corbett had entered the ring. He had always fought under the Marquis of Queensberry rules, he declared, and that was what he wanted to right under this time. Julian took the stand that when n man Is knocked down aud his seconds throw water upon the fallen man, with the Intention of reviving him, it should be a ground fqr forfeiting the right, nnd he asserted that he was going to insist that this be agreed upon. Then Fltaslmmons declared that he would light under the Marquis ot Queens berry rules, and that If they did not suit Corbett he would light under the rules ot the London prize ring. "He has fought all his battles under the Queensbury rules," said Fltaslm mons, "and they should be good enough for him now." Both Fltzslmmons and Julian de clared they did not want any hitting with one hand free nnd on the break aways. Both said that breaks should be clean, and no hitting should be al lowed until both hands were free. Fltzslmmons. above all thlnsrs. inalato,! that 'no agreement should be made be fore the men entered the ring. This was his strong point, and he stuck to It with all the obstlncy with which he was capable. Slier, when told of the objections raised, said: "I did not expect them to agree. However, if Corbett and Fltsslmmons declare they prefer to tight the other way It Is all right. All I want Is for them to agree to some thing." The right Will be Kinotof eopfxl. New York, March 11.
