ROYAL ON THANKSGIVING DAY Dentil of I.onBfollotr nol Ho" Talk The Occne ntul OucUn Aimitcur Ath- lutlcn Continuous Pool mill tlm Weekly I.ocnl Sport.

The latest Intolllffcnco nnont the fit-cat wind jamming match liotwccn Clmrllo Mltclicll and Jom Corbott li the oflcct tlint this precious pair of worthies have at last agreed to ndjiiit their differences In the lihtoilc arena at Now Orleans for the paltry sum of 20,000. They mluht Just as well agree to pull off tlio affair at Philadelphia KoUomo Yip- Blluiitl or Knlnmnroo. Olio place Is nt avail- nblo as the other and the advertisement would bo Just as effective and the agreement just as binding. The truth of the matter Is the great commonwealth of tbo United States Is surfeited Ith tbo bruiser and tbcro Is about ixs much fhonca of this alleged International battle belnf fought under the auspices of nny Incorporated club lu this country as tbero Is that It will snow In hades on the Fourth of July. From the start 1 took no stock In the Mltchcll-Uorhctt light as all my roadc'rs will bear mo out out 1 did say thai In case I was mtstakon and the big mill did como off that it could only In Now Orleans oren on the turf.

It was not long after this declaration however until tbo clergy of the Crescent City mndo nn onslaught on the cohorts of Flstlana and the result was to blot out the last hope of over again witnessing anything liito either ono of the previous carnivals within the confines of the Pelican Bttito. Consequently 1 included Now Orluiins in my litt of interdicted cities. Now Governor Foster comes out Hat Coo toil tuul says that if there Is any power on earth thut will prevent the Mttehcll-Corbett light from taking plncu In the metropolis of L.oulManu. thut it will bo invoked and that the parties who nro now presuming to negotiate for the same might as well desist 11 rat us last. In this connection the States says editorially Ninctccn-twcntl'iths of the brutes who make WK money by prlzo fighting and wtiom thu country disgraces itself by lifting into national notoriety indeed In after a fashion apotheosizing arc personal cowards men utterly destitute of that uoblo and generous spirit which h'ros tho'beart of a truly bravo man who is over ready to stake his life in Uo'cnso of his honor orof the wronged.

Nor is this to bo said only of modern prize lighters. It is stated by ull the historians that the prizci lighters who took part in the Grecian mid liomau games wcro notoriously unlit for soldiers being goncr.illy dovold of the courage to encounter the dangers of the battlelleld. AnU iot it is the proud distinction of Now Orleans that of late years she bus bocoino the arena wherein these creatures moot to engage in their briituLcontests. Wo trust however the hist of these dc- pruvod and disgusting exhibitions has been witnessed hero. The legislature of I utsi- ana should enact a most stringent law against prlzo lighting and ono that the Now Orleans clubs as they cull thcmsnlvos cannot ovudo under the pretcnso that they are giving glove contests and in the iner.ntinio no good citizen of Now Orleans should give his countenance to aiy future cxhloltlons of this sort that mf take place in a Now Orleans arena.

IVhllotho above goes to sho.v how the great "moral engines" of Now Orleans on the question thoj attitude of the States is quite funny. I well remember the ultfht of the Sullivan-Corbott light and how 1 mut at the ring side the whole stuff of the States from the proprietor and editor down to tbo counting-room boy in fact every Hv- Inc soul connected with the shop but an extra paid force who remained at the oflico for the purpose of netting out the very full and very complete extra inidnicht edition which they had on the streets In Jess than ten minutes after the BIp i oliow hit the sands for the last time. For one and tlioro are whole lot of rood people in Now Or leans who will endorse what I I think the Olympic club has done incalculably moro good for Now Orleans than number of other institutions which the States has so capably ehumplonrd In the past and whoso memory it still reveres. I sco that the Motropole club of Provi dence Is endeavoring to match Hilly Smith and Tommy Kyun and notwithstanding there Is little moro tliun cigarette niouoy in the purse it looks as If It might bo a fro Uyan Is willing in fact moro than willing as ho agrees to the Mysterious for trulnlng expenses It nothing better Is forthcoming but Smith demurs. Ilo freshly claims that ho is a card second to Mono and must have the ducats or ho uon't light.

See Boston "Billy however found himself in a position a few days ago where ho had to light notwithstanding the faet that tncro wasn't oven 11 beer insight. Ho and Dick O'Brien the Boston welter with whom Hy.ni was as good us matched while In this city it year airo mot on Washington street ana bcguu discussing their chances of faoinc cai-h other In the ring. What grow out of this discussion best told in the following clipping from a Now York paper which ft friend enclosed In a loiter to mo "As usual Smith blustered and used profane language and applied some Indcuont opi- thotH to O'Brien and aroused the lattor's Ire O'Brien then started in to chustiso Smith and according to eye witnesses succeeded admirably IIu punched the "Mysterious" ono to a closing ono severely cutting Smith's mouth. The latter then soil isubsorlcil. bit Q'Brlen "on the neck.

Tl.o affair was disgraceful but was all the fault of Smith who could not refrain from using vllo language Appreciating the fact thut Smith imu provoked the light and that bo was getting what ho deserved the spectators refused to Interfere and lot the men b.Utlo until ono or the other cried peeoavl which 1 mil informed Smith aid when thuv had lought for U.lrty inlnulos.

To Omaha Investors in Clarke County Washington Fruit Lands Report As a member of your committee I have this' day visited and examined the lands of the Stearns Fruit Land Company in Clarke County Washington about four and a half miles from Vancouver and find them fully up to the representations of the company in every par- ticular. The land set apart for you is level the soil is excellent the location desirable the whole country around it is beautiful with small farms planted to fruit the roads are good schools and churches are near. The people living there are all Americans of the best class. In fact I am fully satisfied with the land and the county. I find that the facts in regard to yield of crops have been underestimated rather than otherwise by that company in all its circulars.

Respectfully submitted S. R. MUMAUGH For the Committee John. Steel Esq. a member of the Omaha Cily Council saw the land two days after the above and endorses every word of it over his signature.
