Iforthem Monex Change the BetUnit Ficnrea in the But Fiaht An Interest in Contest looked For "Squire" Ablngton Telia Why Hall' Shcnld be . the Vlotor-Fitaaimmona in Fine Con dition and Confident.. . The big prize fight between Hall and Fitzsimmons takes place in New , Or leans to-night. The purse is $40,000, to which is to be added the stake money, amounting to $20,000. The winner will pocket $50,000 net, the largest sum ever fought for in the prize ring. l he annexed extracts from the New Orleans correspondent of the New York World will prove interesting to local "sports:" ; New Orleans. March 5. The Fitz- simmons-Hall fight is just at present the talk of every one in New Orleans Everybody has a chance to pick the winner, and the variety of opinions ex pressed and reasons given for such opin ions are interesting if considered alone as evidences of how the average human. will hedge on bis own conviction. It is almost as difficult to get a point blank expression of opinion as to who will win as it is to guess the winning - number in a lottery, when a man whose opinion is worth anything is asked to state who he thinks will be the winner of the con test, he shrugs his shoulders, says one thing at one time, says another in the next breath, . gives reasons either one way or the other to support his claim. aqd then fixes matters so that he will be able to say "I told you so" after the fight is over. .. One of the few men who has given anything like a candid opinion is Bat Masterson. "Bat," or as the regis ter shows. " W. B. Masterson." is straight forward and outspoken. He inclines to the belief that' Jim Hall will prove too much for the man from Kangaroo land. He has seen both men fight. ' He believes that Hill will win because he thinks that Hall is game, that he can , hit harder than Fitzsimmons. that he is the equal of the champion in skill, and that he possesses as much endurance as does Fitzsimmons. Masterson admits that Fitzsimmons is a wonderfully clever man, a dangerous fellow- to meddle with and a fiend at outfighting. The trouble with the sporting public is that they cannot tell it Fitzsimmons has the heart to stand the "gaff." He has never shown the white feather. though there are some who believe that he was a trine excited in that first round when he came so near being put out by Peter Maber, He has never yet been in a position where he was required to stand punishment, and the talent is therefore at sea. The local betters have been swayed to some extent by the opinions of visiting sports on the fight. The impression prevails that Hall will win. Nine out of ten professional boxers and men who have seen the noted con tests intimate that Hall should come out in the lead, even it is. but by a nose. This has somewhat surprised the local and Southern admirers of the cham pion and they are not as free with their greenbacks, either in open or private betting, as was the case before the vis itors arrived. ! Charley Mitchell, "Squire" Abington, his backer, and E. W. Bailey, the "Squire's" private secretary, arrived this morning from Su Louis. The tram was behind time and the visitors being tired with their tedious journey, repaired at once to the St. Charles Hotel, where they were given spacious accommoda tions. After freshing themselves up a bit, they received the visiting committee from the Crescent City Athletic Club and accepted the hospitality ot that or ganization by becoming its guests dur ing their stay in the city. Both Mitchell and "Squire' Abington talked freely of the coming ight between Hall and Fitz simmons, and both pronounced them selves strongly in favor of Hall. In a conversation the "Squire" lamented the fact that there were no more good fight ers left in England. "This country." he said, "offers such large inducements for fighters that Eng land and Australia have become de pleted of boxers. Aside from Mitchell, Ted Pritchard was the best man at his weight in the old country, and I really expected him to whip HalL Jim is a fighter, though, and poor Ted stood lit tle chance. He is a good, stiff puncher, clever with his head and hand and as shifty a man on his feet as ever I saw in a ring. Of course, I don't know much about Fitzsimmons except from what I have read in the papers, but he's got to be more than extraordinarily good to beat Hall. I shall back Hall' "The American public thought I was bluffing." he said, "when I came over here seeking the match, but 1 was de termined to meet Corbett and fight him if there was any fight in him. The only hitch in the proceedings was in" the selection of a place. I have conceded everything to him in making the match and 1 am perfectly willing he should select the battle-ground. I would much prefer, though, to fight in a city where would be sure of fair play and with no fear of police interference. As to the Hall-Fitzsimmons fight. I can see only, the one in it. , Hall ought to win on per formance, but he will have to fight hard and possibly long to whip Fitzsimmons. A man that can whip Ted Pritchard in four rounds ought surely best Fitzsim mons in fifteen rounds at least, and I will have a good bet on him." Fitzsimmons is still at Bay St. Louis and will train up to Tuesday, when he will rest up and arrive in the city Tues day night or on the morning of the flight. A visit to Bay St. Louis this afternoon found the Australian hard at work punching the bag. He had just returned fron a ten-mile spin and showedno signs of being winded by this exertion. After punching the bag for half an hour he denned the gloves and boxed fifteen rounds with Frank Bos worth, his sparring partner. . Fitz is in perfect condition and appears stronger than ever. - He weighed to-day in the neighborhood of 168 pounds, and said he did not intend to take off any weight. He will enter the ring as strong as a lion and in perfect confidence of winning his nght. The Hall party is expected here to morrow morning.' Hall and his trainer and intimate friends will be met by a committee from the Crescent City Club and will be the guests of thar institution until the night of the contest. MARCH 8, 1893.

I September. 1876. : so ; that the trustees and religious denomi nations severally holding the said lots shall ever hereafter hold, use. enjoy and dispose of the same absolutely and un conditionally. That the Mayor execute such deed in the name of the city to the wardens and vestry of St. Mark's Church for the lot on the northeast . corner of the said square. i . Campbell square (block 238) was con veyed to the commissioners of Wilming-. ton on the 80th of June, .1845, by Wm. S. Campbell. For many years it was used as a burying ground for colored people. Ia 1866 the block was divided and set apart as sites for church buildings for colored people. j Ten Cent Per Line. . ' In order to still further popularize the cheap advertising department of the Star,' headed "Business Locals," the charge is reduced to 10 cents per line, but no, advertisement will be taken for less than 25 cents. There are nf any ad vertisements that can be condensed into three lines, for which the charge will be only 80 cents for each insertion, .while five lines (about forty words) will cover a large majority of the announcements that should properly go in he cheap column. The "Business Locals" are all leaded. and occupy a prominent position in the STAR; and the reduction ot one-third in the rate formerly charged, places this department within the reach of all classes.

Much Damage to Fruit and Early Veze- tables in South CaroUca. Georgia and Flondai Advices from the truck farms of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida are of a gloomy character, though the gloom may not be so thick that you can cut it with a knife am bng the truckers in this section when they read the news. - A dispatch jirom , Gainesville, Fla., March 5, says ; j : ' " ; " : .'''. '.. Cold facts are the order: The freeze last 'night was to truck farmers some thing terrible.' j ""he mercury went down to 27. Ice lordied one-quarter of an inch thick in 'thej city. The earth froze half an inch jdeep. The. appearance of the fields at; j nOon to-day is frightful. Lettuce was iut py the wholesale, some fields 25 per cent, and some 50 per cent. Some fields of cabbages look as if 80 per cent, are ruined. Tomato plant and cucumbers were killed under cover. - . . Beans, cucumbers, squash, cantaleups and tomatoes not under cover are killed. Small cabbage suffered most. There will be no more shipments of lettuce for several weeks. 1 STRAWBERRIES 0JT ONLY 10 PER CENT. The strawberrji crop escaped with a loss of perhaps 10 per cent, of the bloom, J. C. Crawford! had 100 acres planted in beans, squash, icucumbers and melons just well up.!' The tomatoes, which had been transplanted; are now lost. It had rained almost ' without intermission .for the past week, andj cabbage were flat on the ground, in many places and the ber; ries were rotting from an excess of mois ture and inability! of the farmers to get dry weather long enough to look after them. I The damage has only been ex ceeded in J886. M -' All the orange blooms which were out have been killed and grave fears are en tertained that the: large fruit crop of all sorts is gone by the board. To-night may wind jup the remainder of the crops. At j Lake, Flap the freeze was disas trous to fruits andyegetables. The early pea crop was destroyed and beans were killed to the ground. Similar reports, though not quite so unfavorable except as to"fruitj come from Georgia. The following Ifrom the Charleston News and Courier gives the situation in South Carolina . - "Inquiry amongirepresentative truck farmers from Mount Pleasant, Charles ton NecW and other trucking sections yesterdayj elicited ; ample proof of the statement published in the News and Courier esterday .'morning to the effect that the recent cold snap had done great damage' to the earfy fruit and vegetable crops. jThe extent of the injury sus tained by the farmers cannot, of course, be accurately estimated at this time, but it is probably f ullyas great as was at first feared.)) -f i . Mr- , , . "The strawberrm crop being the most advanced is most (disastrously affected. The berries were just beginning to turn, and the I vines promised an unusually abundant yield. iTChe first crop will be virtually ruined, aud the full Crop will be so materially retarded that farmers will probably j miss the; cream of the early market. Blossoming peas were nipped in a manner which will give them a severe set-back." W- BUSINESS LOCALS. Notices For Rent or Sale.
