almost everybody, lias granted t lie in

the judge limply stating that in his opin

of the law of Florida, which lorbids
"fighting by previous appointment."
Before The Flitht.
Jacksonville, Fin., Jan. 23. At day
break the rain was pouring in torrents
and the early ntcrs felt that the fates
and the elements were dead against the
financial success of the Duvul athletic
club in "pulling off" theCorbitt-Mitchcll
fight according to schedule, The hour
announced for the men to appear in the
ring was 1:30 p. m., and the report got
started early in the forenoon that by
that time the arena would be flooded
because the roof was only a sham affair,
something in the nature of a protection
from the rays of the sun. This, of course,
was not wi 11 calculated to help the sale
ol tickets, but in spite of it the Duval
quarters were crowded from 9 o'clock up
to 11:30 with eager seekers after the
costlv pieces of paper which would take
the holders to the ring side.
The streets were crowded with
strangers; every hotel and boarding
bouse was lull to overflowing with
guests last night, and hundreds of pri
vate residences had to be called upon to
shelter the strangers. Along Bay street
for seven blocks every b;irroom was
jammed full ol spur, ing men, and men
and boys blocked the d or ways and all
street corners. Despite the steady rain
that was fulling, at li-e pool rooms the
hnarsc voice of sellei s could lie luard far
out on the street as tliev arose rcirularlv
above the din and clatter of bar busi
ness. Sports were unusually t'tnid about
putting their money un. There was very
lit lie going out on either of the tu:;ilils
At the Gl"lc ells' po d sellers still keot
offering the chestnut ''100 to 1-0" on

man would pu'l out a little ui )ney.
At the hotels ihcrewns a gootl (leal ol
bcttuig, the slakes in almost every in
stance being larger than those at the
saloons and pool rnuiiK. Dave Johnson
ol New York put up 8700 lor Mitchell
against $2,000 on Corbctt on result ol
the light, and there were di .ens ol
wagers in varying nnwuuts that the
lvnglishmnn would stav in the ring lor
UO rounds. A well kuown Boston sport,
in maki.ig a bi t of this kind, e xplained
that he based it upon his confidence in
Mitchell being able to run away fro in
CorlKtt tor that so -ice ol time, "but il
he allows himself to be hit a lew times
by the American champion," continued;
the speaker, "he cannot stay lor 10
rounds even."
Bv 1 1 o'clock nearly every caniage in
town was in cotnm ss;on and . hey began
bearing eastward toward the arena
through the deep mud and water, their
occupants blowing great cloudsol smoke
Irom the winnows that gave the caval
cade somewhat the appearance of roar
ing volcanos.
The sensation of the morning was the
charge of $20 each to nil press represent
atives ana correspondents lor "('mission
to the arena. The rumor has been cur
rent for two days past that this uoult
be on the program, but very few be
icved it.

THE BOND PREPARED.
Collector carter Will Doubtless
Go In February I.
Cnpt. Melvin Udmondson Carter is ex
pected to assume charge of the office of
collector of internal revenue for this dis
trict on the first of February.
Collector Carter's blank bond was re
ceived by yesterduy afternoon's eastern
mail. The bond was prepared this morn
ing and was taken this afternoon by
special messenger, Duff Merrick, esq., to
Judge Dick at Greensboro for approval.
The bond is the collector's official bond,
and is for $100,000, to be justified in
double the amount. This one, however,
is justihed lor $275,000, simply for "good
measure." The bondsmen are some of
Ashevillc's most prominent business men
who voluntarily became Collector Car-
ter's sureties and who have no favors to
ask. There is another bond, known as
the disbursing bond, for $40,000, to be
lustihcd in twice that amount, which
wdl be made up after the collector takes
charge ol the oliice.
A telegram to Collector Carter from
the department lust evening staled that
if there were no delav in the oreoaration
of the bond, the office could be transfer
red to him on the evening of Tanuarv
31. As there has been no delay it is
likelv that February 1 will see the new
collector installed in oflice.

Killing of F.d Davis' wife and
iil' Mulclde Monday Nlirni-
The Greenville, S. C, News of Wednes
day contains an account of the killing ol
I he w ile of Ivd. Davis and Davis' suicide
in that city Monday night or Tuesday
morning. Mrs. Davis, who was the
step-laughter of Tecumseh Hamilton of
Asheville, was murdered with an nxe
while in bed. Davis committed suicide
by drowning himself in a well. The News
eavs Davis butchered his wife, although
the coroner's jury rendered a verdict that
she came to her death bv wounds inflicted
with an axe bv the hands of some person
or persons unknown to the jury. Davis
was, the News says further, one of the
Iks; known and most populur negroes in
Greenville. There is a strong suspicion
among the colored people tnat some one
else is involved in the tragedy, and that
Davis, as well as his wile, was a victim.
Davis was known here, having come here
with the Black Diamond baseball team,
of which he was manager, to play an
Asheville team.
