New Orleans, July 8.— [Special.]
-The great pugilists and their friends
succeeded In getting together to-day,
and fighting to a finish without any
molestation from a sheriff or posse.
The place selected was near Richbnrg,
in Marion county, Mississippi, and the
train carrying the pugilists reached
there at 5:30 this morning, leaving
New Orleans at 1 o’clock. The fight
did not commence unt ; V about ten
o’clock and was a prolonged one, both
men showing good staying qualities.
Kilrain, although badly punished,
stood up well, and it was not until
the 72d round that he was knocked
out. It is said that Kilrain’s jaw
was broken by the blow that knock¬
ed him out, but this is not certain.

A Lightning Freak
Pike Couney Journal: Commis¬
sioner Jones was in town last week
and related one of the. strangest
freaks of lightning that we ever heard
or read of. The story runs about
this way. Isaac, the little 8-year-old
son of Mr. S. G, Jones, was seeking
shelter from a rain under a pe: Jim-
mon tree. He was leamng against
the persimmon tree when it was
struck about eight feet from the
ground by lightning. The main cur¬
rent passed down the tree to the
ground, tearing up the roots and the
ground ’round about fearfully. The
"brim of Isaac’s hat was inclined to
flop, and an iron wire was stitched
around the brim to hold it up. This
wire was tom out of the hat, which
was otherwise unhurt, and has never
been found to to this this day. day After de-
molishing the brim stay the light-
ning proceeded down the little fellow’s
back, and those who have seen the
clothes worn by Isaac on that occas-
sion say they seemed as if they-had
l>een run through a forty-saw gin.
What clothes were left on him caught
b.n»d bun, which , M
the only injury sustained. At ,, this
time the bums have entirely healed
and the boy is as well as ever. One
who had knowledge of the freaks of
electrical currents says that the wire
on the boy’s hat is all that saved
him, ns it tendril to destroy, to a
great degree, the force of the eurrent
and protect the body.

THE SUMMER SESSION.
Some Things the Georgia Legislature
Ha* Before It.
A writer in the Americas Recorder
says there is a heap of hot and
heavy work laid out for the summer
session of the Legislature, and very
little fun in prospect.,
A lively tame is expected over the
State road matter, although it is
pretty generally conceded that ths
road will be leased. Two bills are
pending. The first is that of Judge
Harrell, of Webster, which provides
for the sale ol the road. Dr. Felton's
bill comes up as a substitutefor this,
and favors the lease of the road. The
idea is to least the road to the high¬
est bidder, without any restriction
other than that imposed upon the
other roads in the State.
Dr. Felton’s educational bill has
aroused great interest and will be
the occasion of a lengthy and strong
debate. The pubiic sentiment is
generally in favor of appropriating
the entire rental of the State road to
the cause of education, although
there is a strong o pposition to the
establishment of any more branch
colleges. There is a very strong
probability that liberal appropria¬
tions will be made to the University,
Technological School, Experimental
Farm and an Industrial, School for
Girls, and the balance of the fund le
appropriated to common schools.
Some of the hesif talent in both
houses, however, is supporting Dr.
Felton’s bill in its entirety. ,
The sub-committee on the Olive
bill will have a meeting the latter
part of this week, to decide what
kind of a report they will make. It
is said that the committee is evenly
divided upon it, and there will be
two reports made, one favoring the
bill and the other opposing it. A
very strong opposition to the\bill
has developed during the recess,
and it is not thought that the ’bill
can be reported in the Honse in its
present shape, if indeed it is ever
reported. Some of those who ar¬
dently favored the bill at the last
session are now as ardently opposed
to it.
The Constitution thus speaks of
Simmons' Immigration bill:
A central figure oh one of those
groups wns Hon. E. 6. Simmons, of
Sumter. - - - r- -V ;
” We have needed it a long time,”
he was saying. ‘‘That's what put
Alabama’s manufacturing enter¬
prises so lar in advance of mos it
Southern State*, and is bringing one
KnwJimJ hundred aanfeo cents into i«fn fKxi the fif«fa Stats ffti* for
every dollar's worth of iron that
goes out of it. My biff provides for
an immigration bureau—no Castle
substantial farthers of the North and
East to come down and make farms
of these Georgia waste binds. Ad- ■
j vertise—that’s the idea. Alabama-
appropriated $120,000 last year to
her immigration bureau. Georgia
can afford to give $20,000 annual¬
ly”
“Is it to be a separate depart¬
ment?” asked Rawls, of Effingham.
“N o—the only way to get the ap¬
propriation is to make it a branch
of the agricultural department. And
in this connection I wish every mem¬
ber of the legislature could reach a
speech of Judge Barrow’s delivered
at Brunswick some time ago—pretty
much on the line of this bill, and the
finest speech of statistics ever deliver¬
ed in Georgia. Don’t yon think it’s
a good scheme?”
And as he stepped aside to light
his cigar another of the group re
marked kno vingly:
•‘Simmons is loaded this time. He
has two other big bills, but he don’t
say much about ’em now.”
‘ Big uns?” queried Johnson, of
the 24th,
‘‘Think they are.”
It is well known that a large ma¬
jority of the Honse committee on
immigration favor the bill and it
will be reported to the House at an
early day, with a fair prospect of its
becoming a law.
The Brady bill passed the House
in the last legislature by an over
whelming majority, and was defeat,
ed in the Senate by only one vote.
That it will pass the House this see
sion is generally conceded, and it is
said that there is little doubt
of its paasirig the Senate. It will, of
course, be strongly opposed, but
Wright Brady is equal to the occas-
sion and one of the most popular
members of the legislature.
* * •
Everyone is looking for It a great is
speech from Dr. Felton. re¬
ported per contra that Judge Har¬
rell, the watch dog of the House, is
loaded to the muzzle. -The result of
the clash between Dr. Felton and
Judge Harrell is like that other
problem, ‘‘what would be the result
if an irresistible ball came Judge against Har¬
an impenetrable wall?”
rell purposes to amend Dr. Felton's
educational bill so as to establish an
academy in every county.
