"Wben time was called for the seventy- sixth round Mitchell ran over to Sulli- van"s corner and asked if he would give triirgin a present provided he would throw up the sponge. Sullivan generously answered "Of course I wfll," but Mike Donovan, seeing the condition of his principal and to save him from further punishment threw up the sponge and Sullivan had again proven his title as champion of the world. Tbe only marks on Sullivan were a slight cat under the right eye and another on the left ear. Kilrain's body showed the effect of Sullivan's blows and he was bleeding at the ears, nose and mouth. Both men were conveyed to the train by their friends and given attention. Sullivan's condition was superior to Kilrain's. the latter looking as if he had been overtrained. At no time excepting when Sullivan's stomach gave evidence of weakness was there a doubt as to ibe final result of tbe fight. How tto Battle Waged. In the fourth round both men were panting heavily and there were cries of •'Sullivan is licked." Before it. ended Sullivan made the first of his famous rushes, driving Kilrain to tte ropes. KilTain recovered and succeeded in getting John's head in chancery, while in tbis position Sullivan give Kilrain a good blow in ibe nose and both went to the ground, Sullivan on top. In the sixth round when Kilrain drew first blood Sullivan went at }uin right and left. Kllr^ln retreated but Stiiii: van followed bim up and gave him a right hander in ibe neck, followed by his left in the stomach, which laid Kilrain flat on his back.

At tfae opening ot the nineteenth round the referee demanded that Kilrain wash his hands, as he believed he had rosin on them. Donovan protested, but Kilrain complied. In the twenty-fourth round Kilrain succeeded in giving Sullivan several powerful body blows, but before the round en ied he received in return one oil the neck which floored him, and for a moment lis was thought to be senseless. The Crowd I.-il'b at Juke, In the twenty-eighth round Kilrain . nine ip smiling to the scratch. "Easy, Hull* it llow." he remarked to Sullivan us the latter pave him a stinger on the I ight I'beek and an equally strong delivery in tin; left ribs. Several more blow's were exchanged and Kilrain had to drop again. , The samo story was now repeated round after round- the excited crowd yelling derisivelv and suggested Jfe}* Jake ought to fight only a woman. It was apparent that Kilrain was determined to be game as long as he could keep on his legs, but the crowd was not in a huuior to admire hie courage and brute tenacity. Now and then he managed to get in some good blows on vari- JAXE KILEAISf, ous parts of Sullivan's anatomy, bat he invariably dropped when it seemed certain that retaliation was inevitable. In the thirty-fourth round a blow behind and under ihe right ear felled Sol- rain like an ox. There was some good fighting in the thirty-fifth round, Kilrain getting two tremendous upper cute thu made (be occuDants of the stand give vent to a prolonged "Oh." In tfae thirty-sixth and thirty-seventh rounds Kilrain walked around too much tes Sullivan's patience and others and voices in the prpwd yelled "Coward" It was ligfat -touches on both sides, walk arounds, clinchidg and dropping on tfae part of Kilrain from now on. Salman's Sublime Pity. Sulfa van evidently pitied his opponent, fer times M'itl.dut number, he gently (Uijied him away *mth hfi open mutfs rhfift be cculd hava delivered blflHB tb» would have settled _ne mill then and there. In tits thirty-eighth round ibe referee insisted that Kilrain should fight and not walk around. Donovan objected, but tiie spectators howled him down. Sullivan delivered two terrific body blows in this round, and a third in the breast that sent KilTnin two feet backwards, to the ropes, where he fell ln a heap. In the forty-fourth round, when Sullivan began to vomit, the Kilrainites shouted to their mm- to go for Sullivan isa the belly. K"ilra__n could not be pur- suaded. however, to put up his fists until his opponent had indicated.his readiness to proceed. In return for his consideration he got a blow in tbe neck that felled him like an ox. So it went on round after round, every one ending in Kilrain going down. A breast blow felled bim in the seventy-fifth and when time was next called he failed to rise. Kilrain Wanted to Continne. Kilrain was toeing the scratch when Donovan threw up the sponge. He protested that he was able to continue, rat Donovan said there was no use in standing up to be knocked down. The defeated man was bundled up and hurried to a carriage and driven to the tzain. He Utterly bemoaned his fate and actually wept, Mitchell Deeply Chagrined. All Ms friends stuck to him and cheered him up except Mitchell, who seemed deeply chagrined and held aloof. Sullivan and his party also hurried to the train in a carriage and the two parties were soon on their way to Kew'Or- leans. Kilrain seemed to suffer more mentally than physically. He said he bad Sullivan whipped twice, but was unable to follow up his advantage. He said he could not understand what was the mat- to. He seemed unable to stand punishment, but could inflict any. He felt almost as if he had been drugged. He could see that Sullivan did not feel his blows. Donovan, Stevenson and others sponged Kilrain and gave him draughts of whisky and water while he was talking. They comforted him as much as possible, and though they had every reason to feel blue over title result they did not let him notice their regret. Donovan said to the reporters that the beat and exercise had done more than the blows to exhaust Kit-ai-i- KUraln's Wounds. Kilrain's face did not betray the great punishment he had received. He had a cut under the nose, across both Ups and his left eye was slightly discolored and swollen. His right band had been injured hy a blow on Sullivan's head and his left instep had been cat by the spikes on Sullivan's shoes. He had received terrible punishment about the ribs and doubtless suffered considerable pain, but be gave no notice to bis agony. He said he had not been properly trained and that he was not in condition when he entered the ring. Never Say Die. He would work and get some money together again, he said, and would once more make a trial for the championship. He complained of the manner m which Sullivan had jumped upon him with both feet while he was down, and had trusted too much to his friends. Kilrain laid down on tto seats, and coats being placed over him, be soon fell asleep. When tiie train was crossing the trestle about eighteen miles from the city, Mitchell for the first time entered the car. Reproaching Mitchell. Kilrain shortly after this reproached Mitchell for the condition that he (Kilrain) was in when he entered the ring. Mitchell attributed Kilrain's defeat to it being ope of Jus off days. A number of sporting men who bad seen Kilrain in training seemed to think he had been tampered with as they had never seen him hit so feeble before. Johnnie Murphy said it was not Sullivan but the sun which knocked Jake out. Kilrain's condition was mysterious and he had been overtrained. Professor Butler declared that he had announced his belief in Kilrain and he had stcuk to him through thick and thin, MjtpJ-a-l had dropped him like a dog when the fight went ^gainst him, but this would not be the case with others, When the train reached the station at the head of Press street two carriages were procured for the Kilrain party and Kilrain, Stevenson, Donovan. Murphy, Butler, Mitchell and Pony Moore were driven up town. Kilrain was given a Russian bath after whicb he retired to rest. General Discomfort Prevailed. The press accommodations at the ring side were very poor, consisting of a bench with a board in front of it. . A)) tfae seats were badly arranged, all •being on a level, and people in the rear being unable to see over the heads of those fa front. Outside of the crowd was a fringe of country people, who had come in on wagons to see the fight. The surrounding trees were filled with small boys. An amateur photographer mounted on a ladder took views of the fight. The sun was boiling hot before the fight began and the spectators were terribly uncomfortable. There were about 2,000 persons. Two colored men made a small fortune by peddling water at 5 cents a glass-and Sandwiches at fancy prices. The limited quantity of beer obtainable brought 23 cents a glass. Sullivan Fought Scientifically. Sullivan's fighting was' the most scientific he has ever done. He abandoned his old rushing tactics, husbanded his strength, kept cool and seemed to recognize and respect the merits of his adversary, while maintaining abundant confidence in his own abilities. It was evident that he had a good restive of fprpe, which would have been available bad Kilrain been in condition to compel him to do his beat. Tlie Sheriff's Function. Just after the two men had taken then* positions for the fight, the sheriff of the county appeared and formally, in tfae name of the state, commanded all those present to observe the peace. He then retired, this being all the action he was authorized to take at ifaig stage of the proceekings. There was np further movement on the part of the authorities toward tfae fighters. Jake's Message to His Wife, Baltimore, July 9.—The wife of Jake Kilrain, the pugilist, received tbe following dispatch from her husband last night: Nature gave out. Am not hurt. John. Charlie Mitchell sent these words by telegraph to his wife, who is stopping with Mrs. Kilrain: "We are beaten; and Parson Davies sent the following to Mrs, Kilrain; "Jake is conquered, out not disgraced. _______ SLUGGERS' SABBATH. How the Panting Sluggers Fassed Sunday at New Orleans. New Orleans, July 8.—Both Kilrain ahd Sullivan leit yesterday afternoon for tbe point selected for today's fight. A train consisting of a locomotive, a baggage car and two passenger coaches was made up at the Queen and Crescent depot and left the depot at 4 o'clock, one car being occupied by Sullivan and his friends and the other by Kilrain and some of his friends. At 6;30 the arrival of both principals and their friends at ths battle ground was wired to this city. How Kilrain Fassed the Day. Kilrain arose about 9 a. m. and appeared bright and fresh. He was in excellent humor and conversed freely with those wbo came to see him. He remained in his room until about 11 o'clock, when he went to tfae gymnasium, where lie spent an hour. At noon, in company with Mitchell, Dempsey and Pony Moore, he breakfasted at Moreau's restaurant, cm Canal street. The party returned to the gymnasium about 3 o'clock. Kilrain's condition seemed greatly improved and his eyes were brighter and his movements much more active than Saturday. Mitchell said; "If Snllivan don't lick him in twenty miatttej hi won't do ft ifl p moBt^." ^«. Jake's Improved Condition. The members of the athletic club, some of whom were disapointed at Kilrain's appearance Saturday, clianged their minds and expressed astonishment at his physical development as well as the improvement in his demeanor. _ Kilrain acknowledged the introductions of those present atthe gymnasium in a graceful and quiet manner and remained in conversation until the announcement was made that carriages were fa readiness to take tbe party out for a drive. -. Kilrain, Mitchell, Murphy, Moore and two other friends then retired to their rooms and packed their grips. Wheat they reappeared it was evident to all that their carriage ride was not one for pleasure only, but that they were prepared for travel. "Good-by, Boys." As the party drove away from the gymnasium lfiimin called out "good-by, boys, IH be back with yoa shortly and I'll bring yon good news.™ These confident words were accompanied by a look of determination and evoked load cheers. Tne party was then driven directly to the Queen and Crescent depot were they took the train as above stated. Seats Sold at JMO. By 10 o'clock yesterday morning .tickets for all the 800 seats in the ring had been sold and speculators began to advance prices for them. In some cases inner ring tickets sold as high as 840. It was expected tbat about 2,500 people would witness the fight, and that the gate receipts would be $30,000. The railroad fare was only $2. Tlu understanding was that if the fight was prevented ticket holders would get their money back, except the $2 fare. The net proceeds of the gate money (say $25,000) will go, 60 per cent, to the winner and 40 per cent, to the loser. Sullivan the Favorite. The St. Charles hotel was crowded with sporting men all day. Sullivan was the favorite, so far as having a money backing indicates. The non-betting element of the community seemed to hope that Kilrain might win. Kiirain's friends demanded 2 to 1 in the betting, but only 100 to 75 was conceded by Sullivan men and this was not readily taken. Among the visitors at Sullivan's headquarters were Sheriff Mailer, Chief of Police Hughes, of Louisville, and others. They were entertained by Muldoon and could not see Sullivan, who was allowed complete rest, and seemed willing to enjoy it. He ate heartily and took a nap before going to the train.

Small Summer Trading Eeported at Philadelphia. IL00DS EESTEI0T PE0DU0TI0N. But Many at the Disabled Collieries Will Shortly Rosin* Operations—Another General Advance in Prices Ad- Tocated—Furnace Coal Will Come High. Philadelphia, July 9. — Walnut street coal brokers report a scarcity of orders since the new prices went into effect, buyers seeming content to get in the supplies already contracted for before making engagements for the future. Complaint is made that the trade has not responded to the advance as was expected. There is, however, no trouble in placing all the coal mined as the production has been greatly restricted by the heavy and continuous rain3. Collieries Flooded Ont, The Reading started up five additional collieries at the beginning of the month, but seven were flooded by the Fourth of July rain and will noi resume operations before next week. Similar circumstances have occurred several times inthe past six weeks, aod tiie output has been greatly reduced in consequence. All sizes are now moving off well except chestnut and small stove and the stocks at tidewater are chiefly made up of these sizes. Western shipments are increasing and the southern trade is also a littie more active. Business along the line is only fair. Effect of the Advance ln Iron. The advance in iron will probably be followed by an increase fa the price of coal to furnaces. Some of the Philadelphia companies are prepared to advocate a general advance in prices to the entire trade on August 1, in the belief that business will thereby be stimulated. It is becoming more plain that the bulk of the season's trade wiQ be crowded into three months, and the large purchasers are desirous of getting as much of the business as is possible out of the wa y before the rush comes.

The Bible savs, "man is fearfully and wonderfully made." But physiologists all concede that tbe most wouderfal portion of man is tbe nervous system. In it are loo ated the seats of life and mind, and the control of all tbe bodily organs. When tho nerves are destroyed, the part is par- alized. The flesh, blood and bones are as nothing to it. Derangement of the brain or nerves are causes of headache, fits, dizziness, fluttering of the heart, sexual weakness, sleeplessness, neuralgia, cold bands and feet. A free trial bottle of Dr. Miles' Nervine—the latest and most ruc- cessful mats for all these diseases may be had at Dr. Ross & Co's drug store. High School Building Site.

Fourth of July Parade. The parade on the Fourth of July morning was uot a success as to numbers or as to participation of organizations. The city officials were absent and Sedg- wick Post, American Mechanics and W. C. No. 381 P. O. S. of A. failed to materialize in the parade. The ti ne drill ing of the Uniform Ranks, Knights of Pythis, under Capt. AL Gar- rett,!.was one of the features of the parade. Swatara Tribe of Redmen headed by the Perseverance band made a very fine appearance in dress and numbers. Lebauon Valley Commandery STo. 6, P. O. S. of A., was noticable for its fine uniform and marching. Miss Mary C. Miller, daughter of Mr. Harry Miller, represented the Goddess of Liberty with great credit and made a handsome appearance, surrounded by 42 happy young girls, representing the States of tbe Union. George Washington, with bis 13 boys fa Continential uniform, was a pleasing feature and was very appropriate.

Burkholder, a retired distil- ter of Lititz, made aa assignment last week for the benefit of creditors to Abraham S. Burkholder, bis brother, also of Lititz. The failure of Mr. Burkholder was quite a surprise, as he was considered to be rich. He retired from tbe distilling business a year ago ; since then his son- in-law ran it and it was generally thought that he had accumulated a fortune at tbe Rome distillery, where the well-known Burkh<\[f!pr whisky was made. His as- _.:.,.. v: ..-._-■: d execution to-day against Jacob B. Hertzler, his son-in-law, for S3,CC0 and on this writ Ilerlzler's distillery at Rome was seized. Hard at Work.

Uhrieh is building a fine residence in Annville on the gaound lately purchased from the estate of Philip Carmany, it being the eld homestead. It is to be two-story, the first of brick and the second frame with sandstone base. The doctor being single and building such a fine residence he may have some matrimonial intention in view. Anniversary. As is customary with newspapers we concluded it was proper to say a little something in regard to the anniversary of the Advebtiser, as this issue rounds out the fortieth year of its existence. The paper was started on the Fourth of July, 1849, by Wm. M. Breslin, who conducted it up to within three years ago, when be was appointed postmaster of this city. By looking over the first subscription book we see the names of a few persons who still are subscribers to the Advertises, but a majority of them have died off and younger members taken their place. We take this occasion to express oor heartfelt thanks to onr numerous friends throughout this county and elsewhere, and who have always stood by us through thick and thin, and we shall endeavor to keep the Advertiser as it has been in the past a purely Democratic paper in the interest of the farmers and workingmen of this country. r__> * mm.

•@° The European edition of the New
York Herald finds great fault with the
United States exhibit at the Paris exposition, and severely criticises the commissioners who had an approiation o*
$250,000 to work with. "One of tbe
flrst things the commissioners did was to
rent a line house for §12,000, and settle
down in it with their families. The
commissioners say that a great deal of
the money was spent in collecting the
display of cereals. It would not do a
country fair very great credit. A little
glass case six feet long holds the whole
of our wine exhibit California alone
wanted to appropriate $10,000 for an
exhibit of wine, fruit and other productions, but though I applied for space
last January it was refused.
"The United States boasts of having
more miles of railroads Hum all the rest
of the world, yet the exhibit in tbat line
embraces one refrigator car, the sawed
off end of a freight car and a little locomotive one can see over. It shows the
home improvements, but it is a mere
toy.
"France, England, Belgium and even
•Switzerland make railway rolling stock
•exhibits wliich are incomparably better
than ours. Mexico and South Ameri ;an
•countries throw the United States far
into the shade with their exhibits. Tbe
United States exhibit is simply ridiculous."
