Mitchell and Corbett to Settle Their Pug!-
listic Differences in the South.
NEW YORK, March 13,—The chances of
the Coney Island Athletic Club securing
the international battle between
“Charley” Mitchell and “Jim” Corbett
for the heavy-weight championship of
the world appear to be very slim. It is
learned from a close friend of President
Neel of the Crescent City Athletic Club,
that Mitchell has practically signed
articles of agreement to fight Corbett
in New Orleans. The conditions under
which the Englishman has pledged
himself to fight the champion under the
auspiczs of the Crescent City Club are
that the club shall offer a purse that will
meet with his approval. It is not known
how large a purse Mitchell expects to re-
ceive, but the Crescent City Club would
be sure to offer enough money to please
the Engli5h champion. Corbett is equally
anxsous to fight Mitchell in the city
where he achieved his great pugilistic
triumph.

PORT DEPOSIT FLOODED.
An lee Gorge Breaks and Lots the River
Loose.
PHILADELPHIA, March 18.——From Port
Deposit, Md, comes a story Of a night of
anxiety followed by a day of flooded
streets and houses. An ice gorge at Conc-
wingo, a few miles above Port Deposit,
was holding in check a great voiume of
'water.
The gorge gave way, and the flood let
loose swept doWn, leaping the banks and
spreading through Port Deposit. When
the water had reached the height of eight
feet in the streets and houses, it ceased to
rise. Yesterday the flood remained at the
same height and outbouses and every-
thing not securely fixed has been swept

‘ BRISTOL, Pa., March 13 —A woman
called on Caleb Hoffman, a. well-known
farmer of this place whose farm was for
sale and asked him‘ to name his own
figures. She insisted on clinching the
bargain with a $300 payment. He took a
$1,000 bill she gave him to the bank and.
it was pronounccd good, but the woman
afterwards managed to substitute for it a
spurious note and the farmer accepted it
and gave her $700 change.

The Ban Against Father Treacy head In
Public'Yeste'I-day.
SWEDESBORO, N. J ., March 13.—
Dramatic and pathetic scenes followed in
rapid succession here yesterday when the
members of St.Joseph’s Catholic Church
. were compelled to choose between Father
Treacy, their ex-communicated priest
and Father Leahy, whom Bishop O’Far-
rell had sent to them. A loyal band, per-
haps twoscore in all, followed the de-
posed priest and participated in the pic-
turesque religious service, while five
times as many obeyed the command of
the Bishop and attended the business
_meeting of the congregation of St.
Joseph’s Catholic Church conducted in
Howell’s Hall by Father Leahy, where he
announced the excommunication of those
who attended the mass conducted by
Father Treacy. ‘
SANDEMANIANS DWINDLING.
Death of Capt. Charles W. Lamb, a Mom-
ber of the Historical Sect.
DANBURY, Ct., March 13,—Capt. Charles
W.,_Lamb is dead. His death leaves only
onesurviving male member of the his«
torical religious sect known as the San-
demanians,which was very powerful in
the United States years ago. The order
has gradually dwindled in numbers and
at present not a church remains. The
church in this city was one of the last to
be abandoned. A number of surviving
Sandemanians have becn summoned to
this city to attend the funeral. Services
will be according to the ritual of the or-
derf .
Capt. Lamb in his younger days was
master of a whaling vessel, and he made
the circuit of the globe three times.

Mr. German, his best man and a party
of friends were on hand at the appointed
time; so was a telegram from the inlended

what shaken.

natural gas in the conduits of the Central
