PRiNCE GEORGE OF GREECE.
new no Saved the Life of Nicholas 11.;
‘ Then the Czarwitch.
Prince'George of Greece is the sec-
ond son of King George. He was
born at Corfu in June, 1869. The young
Prince is a tall, handsome, broad-

shouldered fellow of unflinching cour—'

age. After completing his studies at
home he started to make a tour of
the world. His companion through
India and the East was the present
Czar of Russia, Nicholas II., who was
then the Czarewitch. While they were
travelling through Japan the Czare-
witch was attacked by fanatical
Japanese, and Prince George beat. him
off with a heavy stick. Prince George
continued his travels alone and vis-
ited this°country, accompanied by Ad-
miral Loman of the Russian navy. He
crossed the continent from San Fran-
cisco, stoppiig at the principal cities
enroute and arrived in this city. on
June 30. 1891. He received a tearty

welcome from the Greek residents
acre. The young Prince inspected the
Navy Yard and the torpedo station at

. Willet's Point. lie was especially in-

terested in naval atl'airs. He travelled
incog as the Count Folstor. and his
courteous manners and unaffected dis-
position made him popular every—
where. While on the trip to \Villet's
Point he drank beer in the cabin of
:he United States launch Runaway,
and when in town travelled around in
street carslike an ordinary citizen. He
always carried a white natural wood
stick, which was said to be his mas-
Zot stick and the one with which he.
Jeat the crazy Japanese who attacked
the Czarewitch.

After seeing the sights here, Prince
Scorge sailed for Europe on the Can-
arder Servia, which broke a crank pin
.vhen two days out and was obliged to
:eturn. There was considerable ex—
:itement aboard, but it was said that
he Prince was the coolest pas-
senger on the steamer. When the Ser-
Via got back to this port the Prince
mmediately engaged passage on the
City of New York and sailed the fol-

, Valuables Stowed Away.

In one of the old London banks a box
.vas recently found, containing money
llld valuables, which had not been
ipened or called for in 160 years, and
vhich now remains without a claim-
.nt. Incidents of like sort are not
nfrequent in banking history, though
here is no other recorded instanée of
2 package held in trust remaining so
311g unexamined. Some years ago the
ilei'chants’ National Bank of Balti-
uore discovered a box containing $10,-

‘oad, the ownership of which could
rot at first be traced. '

OORBETT AND PITZ. _

they Will Meet Within the Same ‘Ring
In \Vhioh They Fought Sharkey.

CARSDN CITY, March 4.——Corbett and
Flbzsimmons will settle the champion-
ship of the world in the same ring in
which Corbett fought Sailor Tom Sharkey
and in’which Fitz met the same opponent
in San Francisco. .The paraphernalia was
shipped here from San Francisco today.

The ring in which the two men will
face each other according to the rules will
be exactly'24 feet in size, with a. two foot;
overhang. The platform for the scene of
conflict is already in place. It rises four‘
feet above the surface of the race track, so
that the press seats immediately around
the squared circle will be raised to allow a
view of the bolligerents.

The sale of tickets increases. A dis-
patch has been received asking seats for a
large party from Montreal.

Assemblyman Dempsey, who, it was re-
ported, would introduce a. bill in the state
legislature asking that $3,000 be appropri-
ated for the. purpose of purchasing a. cham-
pionship belt. for the winner of the Fitz-
simmons-Corbett fight, denied the story,
saying that he did not; intend to push any
such measure.

It. was reported that Mrs. Fitzsimmons
is about to leave New York and will bring
her child along. When Mrs. Fitzsimmons
gets here, she will superintend the prepa-
ration of all her husband’s meals, as she
has done on former occasions of this kind.

Entries for the big live bird shoot to be
held in conjunction with the fistic carnival
come in from all quarters by every mail.
There appears to be some trouble in mak-
ing prospective competitors understand
the conditions, and it is impossible to an-
swer all individual requests for informa-
tion on that point. Stuart has made the
following announcement:

“The live bird shoot will begin on the
afternoon of March 17, immediately‘on the
conclusion of the Corbett-Fitzsimmons
contest. The first; event will be for the live
bird championship of the world, the trophy
now held by Champion Elliott, $50 on-
trance feo and $1,000 added money. If

 

there are more than five entries, this event:

alone will be shot off that day. If there
are less, the state championship shoot will.
be commenced and concluded if possible
the same day.

“On the morning of March 18 the great;
Nevada Swaepstakes handicap, $5 en-
trance fee and half of the gate receipts
added, will be shot. This will consume
all the time not devoted to the Smith-
Green and Hawkins-Flahert-y contests.

. With a possible attendance of over 10,000

one«half of the‘gate receipts should net the
marksmen not less than $5,000 to shoot
for. This will be cut up into five moneys
as follows:

“Firs 5.0 per cent; second
money, :25 per cent; third money, 20 per
cent; ionrth, in per cent; fifth, 10 per
cont.”

Legislated Out. of Ofllce.

NET: YORK, lllai‘ch 4.-—,—In a talk about,
police af’a'rs in general Colonel Grant.
before leaving for Washington to attend
McKinley s inauguration, said that. the
present board of police should he legislat-
ed out of office. He declared that. he did
not. believe that harmony could ever be at—
tained among the present. commissioners.

“The present- members of the police
board should lie legislated out of office.”
he said. “The?“ are so much at. variance
that I do not think it. is possible for them
to come together. ' The, legislature should
step in and legislate the entire board
out of office. Other commissioners should
. then be appointed who would work togeth-

er until the mayor of Greater New York
comm in.”

Colonel Grant; szs'id that. he had no infor-
mation that there would be any supple-
mentary legislation affecting the police
board. As to-the rank and file of the de~
partment, he asserted that it was now in
a much improved condition from the stand-
point of discipline. But he said there was
no telling whether it. might not: become
more demoralized than ever if the existing
conditions continued to prevail. The po-
lice force, be said, had been built up in
the last two years to what it never was be-
fore.

“Months of hard work.” to continued.
“were required to do it, and it could all
be undone in a short. time. ” '

That is.the Way They Do Things in Nor-
walk. '

\

Mr. C. A. Mailings, 35 Van Zandt
Ave.,East. Nor-walk, says: “Both my
son and mvself have been bothered
with catarrh, it troubling us verv much

alike; the head being badly stuffed up,-

while the matter dropping into the
throat caused continual coughing. I
procured a. bottle of California. Catarrh
Cure at. Plaisted’s drug store, in South
Norwalk, and we began using: it. We
didn’t. have to wait. long to [cam its
value, it relieved at. once. Mv head
and throat are now much clearer than
they have been for some time. I will
gladly recommend the medicine to any-
one who is suffering with catarrh.”

California Catarrh Cure is especially
prepared for the treatment of the mu-
cous membrane. It alloys the infirm-
mation, checks the disease, and arrests
and repairs the decay of this delicate
lining. The ravages of catarrh mav be
increased by impure blood, but purify-
ing the blood will neither cure catarrb,
relieve hay fever, nor clean and purify
the nasal passages after a cold; while no
case of catarrb, even if the patient. has
impure blood,tails to yield to California
Calarrh Cure.

In the case of a cold the treatment
may lie begun as early as possible, but
should he continued til the last truce
has drenppeated.

In llus‘ll catarrh the directions on
web bottle have only to be followed
mi a cure lS efi'ectcd, then, with care
of each cold. one may be free from
chronic catanh forever.

Catarrh of the stomach presupposes
nasal cutarrb, and is cured in the some
wev. .

In the case of hay fever, the earlier
the treatment is begun the better, but.-
used at. any time relief Will be obtained
and persistence will result in a cure.

California Catarrh Care is sold by all
dealers; 50 cents, three times as much
one dollar.

The Georg-in Senator Takes a Whack at
Extravagant Tendepcies of Modern
Times, Using; the Inauguration

Expenses as a Text.

WASHINGTON, March 4.—The senate gal-
leries were packed long before the session
opened today, and long lines of inaugura-
tion visitors stood in the outer corridors
eagerly awaiting an opportunity to get; in-
side. The senators began to look jaded,
having been together until the opening
hours of morning. The outlook for the
day was one of busy routine in reconciling
differences on appropriation bills. _

A conference report 'on the District of
Columbia. appropriation bill was presented.
The items of agreement: were concurred
in and the disagreements sent back to con-
ference.

A further conference on the sundry civil

ill was OTCGI‘CC.

Mr. Frye (Rep, Me.) presented a con-
ference report; on the bill amending the
shipping laws, which has been the subject
of much comment on the ground that. it:
restored flogging of seamen. M r. Frye
said in explanation that he had never
sought to defend himself from assertions
based on ignorance. The bill. had been in
the interest of the sailor from the first.
and only an insane man could have drawn
the conclusion that. flogging was to be re-
stored. At the same time the conferoes
had yielded to these “wise men” making
the charges.

The senator spoke of newspaper refer-
ences to' him as “that brutal Senator
Frye” and declared that. the man who in-
vented tho flogging reports was cit-her a
feel or insane.

In the course. of a lengthy discussion of
the law in the case it was brought out that:
under the existing law the courts compelled
a sailor to show that malice, hatred or re-
venge impelled an assaultin order to make
it unlawful, while the new law proposed
to relieve the sailor from the. necessity of
showing malice or revenge on the part of
his assailant. The conference report was
agreed to. .

Gordon‘s Inauguration Sketches.

Mr. Gordon (Dem., Ga.) made several
efforts to be recognized to present a “most
extraordinary paper.” When he finally
was recognized, he presented a sketch of
the inauguration ceremony of 100 years
ago, which was, he said, in striking con-
trast with the inauguration we were about
to Le ""

uok upon.

The senator referred to the first. presi-
dent; “in his severely plain black suit.” de-
livering his address amid tears, and to
President Adams in his “severely plain
drab suit” making his address under sim-
ilar circumstances. It; was opportune, he
said, to place on the record an account of
these simple but impressive scenes. Leave
to print the paper in The Record was given.

Reports on the committee inquiry into
the Perrino land grant were prevented.
The majority report; justifies the course of
the interior department, while thu- =ninor—
ity report criticises the department's ac—
tion.

A final conference report on the post-
oifice appropriation bill was presented and
agreed to.

House bills on the calendar unobject-ed
to were then taken up and the following
passed: To amend an act to grant to rail-
roads in Indian Territory additional pow-
er to secure depot grounds and to correct;
alignments; revising the statutes relating
topatents, with amendments (Mr. Plath
explained that the essential features of
this bill were those requiring that an in-
vention shall not have been published two
years prior to application for a. patent);
limiting to one year the time of prosecuti-
ing an application and terminating the
limit on patents first. taken out in foreign
countries.

' In the House.

The house of representatives was still on
the legislative day of yesterday when
Speaker Reed cracked his gavel at half
past 10 this morning after areceSS of seven
hours. There were crowded galleries, with
many uniforms of the military organiza-
tions which are to participate in the in-
augural parade conspicuous therein, but
down on the floor were many vacant;
chairs, and the members early in the arena
wore a jaded air.

The chairmen of the committees whose
appropriation bills are the bone of conten-
tion between the house and senate were
mnrshaling their forces with conference
reports on the Indian and sundry civil
bills ready for consideration. Several en-
terprising legislators clamored to have
pension bills taken up; frantically waving
the documents over their heads, but; suc-
cessive shouts of “I object!” mowed down
these projects, which required unanimous
consent for their reading.

, First in order came the Indian bill.
The action of the house conference in ac-
cepting e. senate amendment to detach
from Oklahoma the Osage and Kansas
Indian reservations and attach them to the
Indian Territory aroused fierce opposition
from Mr. Flynn, delegate from Oklahoma.

Mr. Curtis (Rep, Kan.)said the change
was demanded by the Osage Indians on
account of unjust; taxation and harsh treat:-
ment by' the people of Oklahoma.

Mr. Curtis said that in the act creating
Oklahoma. congress had reserved the right
to change the boundary at any time. “If
there is any place on this continent where
organized hell is in force, it. is among the
five civilized tribes of the Indian Terri-
tory,” shouted Mr. Cannon (Rep, Ills),
and he demanded that. “this unheard of
Caesarian operation, clumsily performed,
shall not; be a success.”

Touchingthe location of hell, Mr. Pen-
dleton (Dem, Tex.) agreed with Mr. Can-
non, but. insisted that if there was a. hot-
ter hell than that. which existed in the In-
dian Territory it was situated in Okla-
home.

Mr. Cannon scored the senate unmerci-
fully. It; was not. parliamentary, he do-
clared, to attack the other branch of con-
gress: but he insisted nevertheless that;
$270,000 of the alleged Bowman act claims
in the amendment, including the Choteau
claim, was inserted fraudulently and with
intent to deceive in the dying hours of
congress. Unless his motion was agreed
to, he declared, this bill would fail more
certainly than the vilest sinner on earth
would fail of salvation at; the judgment
day. The temper of the house seemed
doubtful, and Mr. Dingley, the floor lead-
or, scught; to rally the members to support
the appropriations committee by holding
up the specter of the failure of the supply
