tit Meeting of the XtUmal lessae and -the 'Ttae
'Work Done tj the Uisnates.
Almost every day Is proving to ns that
football is becoming more popular than its
dost enthusiastic patrons ever expected it to
become for o long time. Lost year a gen
eral boom in the sport began, and it has not
only continued, but has increased in force
ell round. As e result, we have more foot
ball clubs of all kinds in the country to-day
than there ever were, and the quality of
playing is considerably better. Pitts
burg has taken part in the boom, and a very
pood part it has been. But while football
has increased in popularity here there are
a large number of people who complain
about the very rough features of the Eugby
game. There is considerable reason for the
complaints, but it might be well to point
cut that this undue roughness is not neces
sary; that is, the rules of the play do not re
quire it. It is also worth pointing out that
what some people call ','rough play" is not
rough play at all. People who have not
been accustomed to witness football games
played unde- Americ3n-Engby rules nat
urally come to the conclusion that almost
every tackle or interfere-ce is prompted by
a desire among the players to break each
ether's neck, leg or arm.
, It must not be forgotten that football is
to all intents and purposes a rough game,
end those who take part in it must never for
a moment think that it is as harmless and
as slow as croquet Football as a recreation
ts more than 2,000 years old, and it has ever
been one of the most lively sports and one
which has afforded more opportunity than
any other for the development of all our
physical faculties. A young man, devoid of
pluck, activity and endurance, need not en
ter into a football contest. Football is not
for "spoiled childrer," but only for those
who can take a knockdown anil give one
nnd think nothing about it. And depend
upon it, there is some hope for the young
whleie who can come out of his college,
leave his books behind and run and pitch
and tumble about the football field for an
hour or so. It is this idea more tnan any
other that seems to be prompting so many
jeople to encourage football playing now.
Snnso U;adin Distinctions.
These rough or alleged rough features of
the Amcrican-Eugby game have caused one
or two correspondents to write me on the
Batter. One correspondent asks whether or
not the Kuguy game played here is the
rame Enzby game playe I in England. It
is not and the changes have been made grad
ually. True some years ago a number of
Harvard students went over to England
ivnd rctnrned with the English Eugby rules.
The latter formed the basis on which the
present Arncrican-Enghy rules are built;
but the leading feature which permits. I
tnicht say encourages rough play in the
American game and which is not to be
found in the English game, is that of lining
up. In the l.glish game the players do
not line up (ace to face as if thev were go
ing to have a fistic encounter. The players
stand fs.r awav from each other, and of
conrse this prevents the rough plav we
often see in an American game resulting
from a collision been the rush lines.
And the Irish game is also played in a
wav that does not cause as much rough
work a does the American game. In the
Irish game one player cannot tackle an
other player except one of them has the
ball. As a preventative of rough play this
is a good arrangement. In the English
Association came a plaver is not allowed to
touch the ball at all with his hands. It will
be teen, therefore, that as far as rough play
ing is concerned the Araerican-Eugby
game can according to rules have more of it
than any other style of game. Bat when
this is said don't think that anything is said
to mean that there is undue fouehness al
lowed by the American-Eugby rules. There
3s not, and when rough, or rather unduly
rough plav takes place, it is more the fault
of the umpire than of the rules.
About the ICnu;b riay.
A day or two ago Mr. J. D. Thompson,
one of our local plavers, in speaking of a
recent game at Exposition Park remarked
that had the contest been played on any of
the leading college grounds a cood number
of players would have been ordered off the
field. Xow this is a very important state
ment, simply because it implies that the
umpire of an American-Eugby football
game has much to do as whether or not the
game shall be unduly rough This ought to
DC very batisfactoryand umpires ought to
make the:- minds up to veto all rough play
that borders on blackguardism. A few
days ago I witnessed a game wherein a
visiting nlaver deliberately banged a Pitts
burger's cose until the blood flowed freely.
It is this kind of conduct that is causing
such a large portion of the public to com
plain about rough playing and it is this
kind of work that umpires must by all
means stop at once. It cannot be expected
fhat good lootbnll players will act as gentle
as limbs on the field, but it can be expected
that they will not act like toughs and
blackguards.
The Tocal Kickers.
There is now strong hope that cur two
p-omincnt local teams will finally face each
other. For some time past there has been
considerable talk about a contest between
the Three A's and the East End Gvms. The
letter have been contending that the former
were a! raid to play them; but such has not
been the case. It has been a question of
getting a suitable date. Finally it has been
agreed to have a game between the two
teams on Wednesday next. If this arrange
ment is carried out the contest will be one
of the most interesting there has been
played here for a long time. The teams
seem to be evenly matched, and most cer
tainly the rivalry between them is as in
tense as it can be. If a game is played be
tween the teams it is to be hoped that
everything will pass off all right. The teams
are good ones, and thpy are proof of the in
creased interest there is now in the game in
and about Pittsburg. If the efforts of the
local athletic clubs in the way of getting
together good football teams prosper in the
next 12 months as veil as they have done
In the jiast 12 months, certainly we will
have one or two excellent teams here next
fall and winter.
Trouble In Their Camp.
It is necessary to say a few words rela
tive to the state ol affairs in the "Western
Football League. Uo orgauization was go
ing better along than that one, but sudden
ly trouble has appeared, and a kind of
tronble that threatens the existence of the
entire organization. The League may col
lapse at any time, and all because a majori
ty of its members a few nights ago met and
acted as if they were utterly devoid of
-ason. There have been many curious and
strange meetings held in connection with
Ethletics, but I defy anybody to point out a
more unique gathering than the delegates
who made" up the meeting of the Western
Football League the other night. Why,
the men must have been hypnotized. Th"e
majority laid down the rule that the Judg
ment of the referee as to whether or not
a player touched the ball legally or illegally j
can be protested; Indeed, a protest of this
kind was sustained, the protest being against
t ,,. .1...1 VJ t..-,. ll A 1 A ...
j a team that had beaten another team bv 4 to
L K ot one of the four goals was protested.
This means that as far as judging and ob
serving the game ts concerned, a man at
2Tew Castle has more to sav than the referee,
who was on the field while he gams was
going on. The thing is preposterous. An
other game was thrown out because Fred
Goodwyn, President of the Pittsburg club,
was referee, the Pittsburg team, of course,
being one of the contesting teams. But the
other team, the McDonalds, were, according
to rule, notified that Mr. Goodwvn would
referee the game, as it was an important
one. I have seen the notification, and it
was sent before the day of the game. There
was no objection to the appointment, and
the rulo allows the Secretary to appoint
anybody he chooses.
A Protested Game.
But the game was protested on a plea that
a foul goal was allowed Pittsburg, and when
that plea was downed the game V as thrown
ont for the above remarkable reasons. Now,
what can we expect as a result of such
stupid and unfair proceedings? Nothing
but a general breakup, because no man of
any intelligence and independence of
thought will stoop to referee a game if his
decisions of Judgment are to be overruled
the next dav'by people who did not see the
game, and no secretary will aot, if gamesare
to be thrown out because of his appoint
ments, and appointments, by the way, that
were not objected to until after the game.
The majority of the League have made a
serious blunder, evidently, in their eager
desire to down the Pittsburg team by hook
or bv crook. They have insulted one of the
hardest workers for the League, and ath
letics generally, that has ever been in
Pittsburg, viz., Georee Macpherson; they
have unfairly called to question
the honesty of a referee who has acted on
hundreds rf occasions ably and impartially,
viz., Fred Goodwyn, and theyliave gone be
yond all athletic rules and common sense to
an extent that proves they should never at
tend another athletic meeting during the
balance of their lives. But it is to be hoped
that matters will be remedied and that no
resignations will take place.
That Sprinting Adair.
Foot racing has received another great
blow in this city just when it was regaining
its old-timo popularity. The race be
tween G. Smith and Steve Farrell resulted
in a way that cannot but cause general re
gret among those who patronize the sport
It is not for me to sav or to try and prove
whether ornot the contest was an honest
one, but after fully considering everything
connected with the two men, I am fully
convinced that Farrell can defeat Smith in
a 300-yard raoj just as sure as eggs are eggs.
There was a time when I did not think so,
but facts, of which I knew nothing then,
convince me now. This being so I am
forced to believe that George Smith
tried to win, but saw, in fact knew almost
on the mark tbat his case was helpless.
Attaching stake money is always to be
deplored, although in some case cases it is
necessary as a protection against
robbery and conspiracy. But there
is an old custom, a rule I may
say, which, as far as I know, has been lived
up to for years. That is, that all protests
asainst a winner must be made on the
grounds and on the day of the event. The
great mistake, and, in my estimation, f Al
mistake of Smith's backers, was that they
did not act up to this recognized rule.
Mark, Smith's backers, judging from their
expressions, are as fully convinced now that
thev were defrauded as Farrell and his
backers are that they were not. When a
man is convinced that he has been robbed
of S300 he is exceedingly impatient, and
this may have .been the case with Smith's
backers. It is a pitv that matters resulted
as they did, and it is to be regretted be
cause of the harm it will do to the popu
larity of sport in this city. There seems to
be a fatality about foot racing in this city.
Just as it is becoming popular something
occurs to knock it into utter disrepute.
Sullivan's Challenge.
During the last few days there has been
much said and written regarding the forfeit
put up in behalf of Sullnan to fight Slavin
next j ear, that is, 12 months from now. The
way in which the Sullivanites have de
clared themselves on this somewhat strange
proposition has been exceedingly amusing.
The fact is the challenge is a very curious
one indeed, and if there was anv reason at
all to charge anyone with blufhng the man
who puts up a forfeit to fight another man
12 or 13 months from date should be termed
a full-fledged bluffer. But we can take it
for granted that neither Slavin nor Sullivan
are bluffing, and that the forfeit has been
put up in good faith. This being no, has
Slavin or anvbody else to be compelled to
tie up $2,500 for 12 months in hopes of
fighting a man at the end ot that
time? Not at all. There is no reason about
it. The mutability of human affairs tells
us all in plain language that it is to a very
great extent absurd to definitely make a
match now to fight a year hence. Of course,
it will be profitable to John L. SullUan to
have a match made, even with a forfeit of
$2,500 up. He is in a business that can
only be profitable to him as long as lots of
advertising keeps him before the public.
Were the match spoken of by Sullivan
made just now it certainly would be a great
advertising card for John L., and Slavin
also. Because of this a match may be made,
as Slavin intends to visit this country
shortly, and he and Mitchell will tour the
leading cities.
It seems as if these two big men will
never get together, and the longer they are
in meeting the worse it will be for Sullivan.
The latter is fast nearing an age where a
man's best form leaves him entirely, and,
judging from experience, it will surprise
many people if Sullivan will be able to last
long in a hot fight 12 months from now.
Those who pin their faith to John L. under
all and any circumstances must not forget
that Slavin is a big and powerful fellow, and
has a very good knowledge of the pugilistic
business.
Pncilimn In General.
There has, indeed, been little doing dur
ing the week, as tar as pugilism is con
cerned. A number of exponents of the art
are getting ready for battles. Greggians and
La Blanche have been matched, and the
cliances are that the former will give the
Marine all he wants. Greggians has not
done sufficient yet to fully enable one to
form an estimate of his abilities. But he
has shown that he can fight and that he can
Etand a deal of punishment. These two
qualities will enable him to make matters
extremely lively for La Blanche.
Chappfe Moran has returned from Eng
land and declares war with Alf Levy, the
late importation from England. Levy has
been circulating the report in America that
he defeated Moran in England. Thev
never met, and the truth is that Moran de
feated a man who defeated Levy quite
easily. But it may be that the two bantams
will be matched, and if they are Moran
slnll be my choice.
Little Plimmer continues to please the
talent and the opinion is gaining ground
that he is a good one, and of the fir't-class.
If he is as good as many people think- he is
he will defeat Spider Kelly. ButPlimmer's
full measure will best be taken when he
meets an acknowledged good man of his
class.
Mahcr and Corbett continue .to fight at
long range with little or no signs of getting
close together. Judging from the actions
and statements of Corbett there is little hope
of his meeting Maher for a long time to
come But both of them are in the show
business and they can afiord to talk as much
as possible.
Slosson's Charge of Fraud.
George Slosson, the billiard player, has
during the week made public a charge that
reflects very much on the management ot
the recent contest between him and Schaefer.
Slosson has intimated that he did not re
ceive as much money as he "should have
done. He was entitled to all the receipts
after paying expenses, and he declares his
share would have been bigger had some
body not taken a slice for himself. I men
tion this to show that almost every
sport in tho United States is sus
tained almost entirely the "receipt"
business, not even accepting the fashionable
game of billiards. It also reminds us that
the "society" game is not exempt from
frauds any more than other branches of
sport. These frauds are to be fonnd all over
j tho conntry. Like parasites, they live on

Local Baseball Affairs. '
Interest in locai baseball affairs is at a
very low ebb at present, and there is ap
parently little hope of the interest reviving
for some time. To say the least, the work
of the club officials has to a very great ex
tent been very unsatisfactory as far as the
getting together a good-Warn is concerned.
Without going into details it is sufficient to
say that not one thine has been dene so far
that will enthuse the patrons of the club.
Excellent chances to secure good and
reliable men have been neglected,
and experiments are to be made somewhat
similar to those of last year. Some of the
directors of the local club are painfully
aware that there has been too much dilitan
ness. Kine could have been kept here
easily and "let no one say that he is not a
first-class man. Pittsburg wij.1 find that out
next year. But King was lost simply be
cause of trying to work one of these diplo
matic schemes that nine times out of ten
are toiled. King was blacklisted by the As
sociation, and It was the intention of an of
ficial of the local club to n6k the League
clubs to keep their hands off King so that
he would be forced to plav in Pittsburg.
This plan was unfolded to me by an official
of the club, but Manager Powers landed in
the city before the magnates met in Xew
York and King was captured.. But the most
amusing feature of the whole business has
been the protest of the local club against
New York getting King. The latter was re
leased here entirely because he would not
sign lor next season at a reduced salary.
He would have done so finally, but it was
too much for anybody to expect him to do
so then.
But after King was released he was not
officially approached by anyone. I have had
many conversations with him and I knew
that he could be secured to play here next
year on fair terms. But the polioy above
referred to was in operation and as a resnlt
the club lost King just when he was thought
to be safe. And if I am correctly informed
the club's chances to secure Jack Boyle were
also ruined bv dilatory action. A club di
rector told me tlia, other day that it had
been fully expected that Boyle would be
signed by Pittsburg, but that nobody had
gone to see him. Killen and Davies, two
of the most prominent young pitchers in
the country, might also have been signed
by Pittsburg if there had been any activity
shown.' It may be that Killen will be se
cured yet, but the chance is not as good now
as it was. Altogether there is really noth
ing to get enthusiastio over so far as the
doings of the directors are concerned.
The great things promised are to be done
yet.
The Xieacne Meetlnc.
There might be much said about the an
nual meeting of tho National League, but
in crowded times there is not any reason
why very much should be aid about it at
all. The magnates met, and as far as the
reports up to date, Saturday afternoon, are
concerned, they really did nothing at all ex
cept try and make a bigger bluff than the
Association had done. It is worthy of note
that as soon as the League magnates got down
to work the Association moved V Philadel
phia, and as far as I know, and as far as we
really ought to care, they may be there yet
and may stay there.
If there had been any sincerity about the
magnates when they passed the 25-cent reso
lution it might be worth discussing. But
they don't mean it, nor do they mean to
abandon the national agreement For a day
or two it may seem as if evervthine is in
chaos, but there will be a calling back, and
then everything will be all right
Transfer of Players.
Space is getting short, but I want to say
this: That as sure as a peace settlement is
made plavers who have jumped to and fro
during this fall for big salaries will have to
dance in their own organizations. Of
conrse King is all right, and all players
whose cases are like his. But it must be
apparent to everybody tint any threat
about the national agreement is a stroke
of policy that is very good in its way.
Players may be transferred to-day or to
morrow, but depend upon it all "players
who have been transferred from one" or
ganization to another since October will be
returned except under rare conditions.

A Sew Trnlon of the Story About the
Telephone and Convention.
Judge Martin, of Texas, the man of tele
phone and blow-ont-the-gas fame, will not be
in the next Congress. The telephone incident
will bear repeating. The job was pnt up
by some of the practical jokers of Congress.
It was at the time of the Congressional
Convention that nominated Martin's suc
cessor. These practical jokers took their
stand in the committee room in Ben But
ler's house across the way, and called
through the telephone for Judge Martin.
The page rnshed to the House and told
the Judge that someone wanted him at the
telephone.
Martin hardly knew what a telephone
was, but he finally got up and went out He
asked the boy to do the talking. The boy,
who had been coached, said: It is a tele
phone from your convention from Texas..
They are telling yon how things are going
on."
"All right," said Judge Martin, "what
do they sav?"
'They say," replied the boy, "that they
think you will win."
"Is that so?" replied Martin. "Keep a
listcnin."
"Tbey say, Judge," continued the boy,
"they want to know what you thins of the
Alliance, and will you vote for free silver,
and they want you to tell them what you
will do on everything."
"Oh," said Judge Martin, "will you just
tell them that you can't find me."
Martin then left the Capitol. In three
hours he came back expecting to find him
self elected. When he found he had been
sold he was mad, and when a telegram came
saying the other man was nominited he was
the maddest man in Washington. The boy
kept away from the House for days, anS
Martin never caught him.

Jackson Advised Sam Houston to Do It for
HU Nerves In a Duel.
General Sam Houston, the noted Texan,
said CoL William Sterritt to Frank G.
Carpenter the other day, was afraid of noth
ing. He won the attention of General
Jackson by his desperate bravery in fighting
the Indians, and Jackson was his closest
friend and adviser. It was Jackson who
gave him the advice as to the steadying of
his nerves in a duel. I have heard the story
in Texas. It was while he was in Congress
and he had a duel to fight with General
White. Jackson told him that before he
went to the field he should put a good-sized
leaden bullet in his pocket and just before
he was ready to fire he should take this out
and put it in his mouth.
"You can bite on this bullet," said An
drew Jackson, "and you'll find it will
steady yonr nerves and you will get a fair
shot at your opponent"
Houston did this and he said he fonnd
the recipe to work like a charm. He
wounded White and came off himself with

A special contract might have to be made

A Sawdust-Lined Barn.
Better take time by the forelock, and
surround his African highness with
innumerable gas nines at once. An n,
barn at the zoological garden has been lined
with sawdust in the hope ot making it warm
enough for the elephant's winter residence.
The seams and cracks have been well
"stripped," and a sove will be put into the
building next week. The Elephant is now
living in this barn, and he 3eems tu be very
well contented with this place. His keeper,
Patrick Meenan, tells me that it has
been cold enough alreadv, however,
to afiect the animals' spirits.
A cold elephant acts just like a human
being does ho shivers. An elephant's
shiver, Meenan informs me, is a well-de-
hnea tremble, and I don't imagine that it
would take more than three or four severe
fits of that elephant's trembling to shake
that old stable down. This, therefore, is
another reason why the city fathers should
pay careful attention to the animal's win
tering, or else some day in January he may
rush down Fifth avenue, carrying the roof
of the barn on his back.
"But you can warm up the elephant by
exercising him, can't you?" I asked.
The Elephant might Slide Down H11L
"Yes, exercising him will warm hira np a
little," answered one of the attendants,
''but I am not certain how we can do that
this winter, out h re in the country. These
roads and hills are so steep that on icy oc
casions it might be very dangerous to take

four broad feet of his, where will he stop,
and what would be my condition after being
hauled along after him? Or, suppose he
slips on that hillside there while going to
water and falls. Why that bulky mass of
flesh would start sliding down and nothing
would ever stop it until h'e would fall over
the crags of Panther Hollow. Meenan,
over there, wintered him in Pittsburg last
year, but that was in a big, warm brick
building."

particularly difficult, was to get up on the

his feet alongside each other, and then he
laboriously strove to maintain his equilib

A Cave for the Bears.
The carpenters are just finishing the
winter den for the three bears. They are
naturally cold animals, but their present
open cage is being completely closed in on
three sides. At one end is a big box half
buried in the ground. This is meant for
the sleeping cave for the bears. They enter
it from the main cage. It is pretty well
covered up the sides with earth, and plenty
of dead leaves, grass and underbrush is
mixed in with it to keep the place warm.

fashion. Most of the birds will be taken to
the city, where they can be kept in museums
and other warm places dtiring the winter.
The arrangement of monkeys' cages at
Schenley Park is good for winter weather.
The cages are built into the old farm-house

that the outer half of the cages may be

ride. Drive your sleigh in from Forbes
street, and in five minutes you will be in
the heart of a wild conntry, hill and valley
clad with snow snow that is really white,
not the smoke-begrimed article that is
typical of lower Pittsburg. Make the cir
cle of the noble roadwavs which encircle
these hills, and then continue your ride on
out Forbes street down Shady lane out
Highland avenue to the other park and,
mv w ord for it, by that time your horse
will be tired.
Already some East End people are re
volving in their minds the idea of petition
ing Councils to erect toboggan slides and
skating ponds in the park. The average
toboggan slide would not cost any more
than the swings which the city has already
built in the glen at the foot of Panther
Hollow.
Winter Amusements In the ?ark.
If the city furnishes children summer
amusements, It is argned that the precedent
is set and it may just as readily furnish
winter amusements. The climate of Pitts
burg gives it moro snow usually than Balti
more, Washington and even Philadelphia
get. Why not take advantage of the bene
fits thus gained from climate? Naturally,
Schenley Park affords opportunity for mak
ing magnificent toboggan slides. Some of
her hillsides might be boxed into chutes
that would form slides of unequaled length
and safe grades, furnishing a sled ride which
would ni.ke children generally grateful to
the city. There are some natural basins,
also, in the park, and a couple of water
plugs turned into these for a few hours
would make half a dozen skating ponds.
Altogether, there is no reason why Schen
ley Park might not be a scene of pleasure
all the winter through, unlets It be that the
weather takes a notion to protect the big
elephant with mildness and keep fresh and
bright the carpet of green.

BAH EOTJSIOK'S FIRST MABBIAQH.
Two Stories to Account for On of the
Mysteries of the South,
Of Sam Houston'-s first marriage, they
have one version in Tennessee, but there is
another version in Texas. The Tennessee
story Fs that while Houston was Governor
of the State he fell in love with a very
pretty young lady named Allen and pro
posed to her and after a time was accepted.
Within a very short time, the next day
after the marriage I think, he left his wife
without a word of explanation. He pro
tested that the cause of separation in no
way affected his wife's character. He left
Tennessee and went among the Cherokees
and lived with them for three ypars. And
during this time it is said that he got a
Cherokee wife. As to the last I do not
know but the marriage and separation are
conceded facts.
Now in Tennessee it was claimed that as
soon as the wedding party was over Governor
Houston's wife told her husband that she
had been forced into the marriage by her
parents and that she loved another. Houston
thereupon said that he would not compel
her to live with him but he would give her
a divorce by leaving the State. This he did,
taking all the blame.
In Texas it is said that this story may or
may not be true but that another reason for
his leaving his wife was a wound in his
shoulder resulting from a shot which he
had received in the Indian wars which at
this time made him very offensive to those
who were closely associated with him. At
all events he acted most magnaminonsly in
the matter and he never made a publio ex
planation of his course. He married again
after he went to Texas and there are a num
ber of his children living in the State to
day. There are several boys and one girl.
The hoys are bright, well-to-do young men
and the girl is a brilliant writer and she not
long ago wrote a scathing review of some
articles which had been published concern
ing her father.
THEATRICAL msUBAKOX.
It Comes, High, bnt Is Different From Any
Other Kind Issued.
The item of insurance to traveling theat
rical companies is an important one. Every
company carries from $2,000 to $10,000
worth of scenery and properties. On this
they carry a queer insurance policy at S
per centum. The wardrobes and properties
of a spectacular show are usually more or
less covered by insurance at the same rate.
They are valued at from 55,000 to 515,000,
and wardrobes and scenery and properties
often aggregate a large sum of money.
The insurance policy is queer b 'cause It
expressly differs from all other kinds of fire
insurance in not requiring a stated place of
use or storage. It comes high, but careful
managers considers such insurance a good
Investment.
A New Sort of Bating.
The little boys of Brest, roused to emu
lation by the deeds of bicyclists, have in
augurated a species of course which threat
ens to extend. They have had i'long dis
tance races" with their 1 oops wooden
hoops, of course, for no French boy is ever
seen with a hoop of iron. In their opening
event tney traveled ten Kilometres, from
Brest to Guipavas; in the second, they
went three kilometres, from Brest to St.-Pierre-Quilbiguou."
Controllers were posted
at points along the routes; the competitors
wore badges; prizes were bestowed; bets
may certainly have been engaged, and fair
onlookers may have lost their hearts. The
little boys of Brest are to see their records
broken by some little boys of Paris who
have written from their schools to the
papers.
A Useful Plaster.
The ordinary sprain, as a rule, receives
but little attention, and the indifference
with which it is regatded often leads to
serious after effects. If the stream or rnn
ninpr water, which most people know enoujh
to have iccouisu to in cneof sprain, be sup
plemented by the application of a plaster
composed of one pirt of catbonate ot lead
and two paits of ullve oil, in oiUinary cases,
very little subsequent trouble is likely to
arie. So effective is this plaster that Dr.
Dulinmel, who has been trving Its effect in
Pails on wnumber of hospital patients, most
of whom weio suffering Irom sprains of the
antic, states tlmt his patients were able to
walk as soon as the plaster and retaining
dressings hud been applied.

BUSINESS HEX ARE THE PATRONS
rCORKESrOJTDEXCI OF TITE ptSPATCn.1
New Yobk, Nov. 14. The demands of
business and the general process of evolu
tion bring ont Queer combinations. Some
ingenious fellow starts a scheme and works
up a paying clientele; another sharp fellow
improves upon it and a score of other fel
lows take it up on a larger scale. In a year
or two It becomes a part of our business
system, is accepted as a matter of course,
and if anybody thinks about it at all it is
to wonder how things went on so long with
out it.
This idea struck me forcibly the other
day while looking into one of the "clipping
bureaus" down town. A number of girls
were seated at as many reading stands
skimming the newspapers, marking para
graphs, turning and skipping and rustling
among the leaves that have blown in from
Maine to California. These keen-eyed and
nimbled figured girls are doing the reading
professionally for people who are too busy
to do it for themselves, and they are doing
H a good deal more thoroughly and ex
haustively than any one man could possibly
do even if every day contained 48 working
hours and he hadn't anything else requiring
attention.
The labor Savin- Movement
The evolution of the clipping bureau Is,
on a different scale, similar to that of
stenography, typewriting and other labor
saving devices in professional life. The
advanced modern idea of commercial and
professional life is the greatest personal at
tention to details with the very smallest
expenditure of time and labor. Toincrease
the nnmber of your eyes and ears and hands
and feet for business purposes without un
necessary physical or mental taxation is one
of the secrets of success.
"The mental processes have no natural
relation to the physical exertion of skill
necessary to reduce them to practical use,"
said an eminent author and publicist to me
some years ago. "The world is full of men
whose strength and activity of brain are
wholly out of proportion to their physical
endowments. There are thousands of will
ing and capable eyes and hands waiting for
the command of the great directing power.
The end of the most perfect human life is
in the fitting of these human elements each
to each and to the greatest advantage of
the whole. At the head ot all the means
within reach of us to accomplish this stands
the newspaper press."
Boiling Down the Newspaper.
But the newspaper press of his idea meant
a good deal more thau the morning or even
ing, or perhaps only weekly paper usually
read by the .American. It meant the whole
newspaper system. A single newspaper of
this day often means more than any man in
business life can read, much less digest.
The system aa a means of information is ont
of reach. That is to say, it was out of
reach till some fellow started this clipping
idea. By this scheme yon can get from
2,600 newspapers every day any informa
tion contained therein on any particular
subject in which you are interested.
Nearly everybody reads the newspapers
with a keen eye for that particular field of
news in which business interests are in
volved. It may be politics, stocks, base
ball, books, produce, bonds or pork or some
thing else. If you could have placed before
yon every day the current news on your
particular hobby it would surprise you to
see how many people are writing and talk
ing about it. One of the' best results of the
clipping bureau is in relation to public af
fairs. It is the concentrated voice of pub- j
lie opinion. At ashington it has as
sumed a greater importance, for it is there a
means of
Determining Publio Policy.
Every governmental movement is usually
commented upon bv the press, whether ft
is as to finance, Indians, lands, foreign af
fairs, pensions or anything else, .Not an
editorial fine is written on any of these sub
jects but speedily finds its way through
various sources to the desks of those in au
thority. Those interested in the personal
ity of politics get every day what is being
said ot possible political candidates and
through this means political leaders keep
an hourly hand upon the public pulse.
With the entire newspaper system at com
mand there is no excuse for errors of judg
ment as to the country at large. -
The extent to which the modern way of
reaching the great newspaper system is
used will astonish those who have given
the subject no attention. There are proba
bly a dozen clipping bureaus here- and
others in Boston, Washington, Chicago and
San Francisco. They aggregate many thou
sand subscribers. The uniform reward for
finding each item is but 5 cents. The uni
form price to the employe or searcher is a
small traction ot a cent. 1 am told at one
place that the search girls get but 1 mill to
2 mills per article found and yet make from
to $2 per day. At the former price the
searcher would get 1,000 articles for her 5L
One Test of a Good Newspaper.
The nnmber of subscribers and the variety
of subjects being very great this is s'ifl
astonishing. It is because of this fact, that
the variety of subjects covers almost every
newspaper topic, that such work is possible
and paying. When you see a newspaper
that has been through the clipping bureau
there is mighty little ot it ielt. And when
you see what is left you will see matter in
which the public generally is not interested
p irticulariy. The intelligent woman with
u blue pencil sees things at a flash and like
a flash it is marked for the shears one,
two, three, fonr, ten, fifteen one after an
other until the paper seems to have been
struck by lightning. The greater the
wreck the. greater the newspaper.
There are certain subjects in greater de
.mand and hundreds of newspapers must be
'purchased daily to cover them. Supposing,
ior instance, the manager here has 50 sub
scribers for inf- rmation on a single topic,
Say that topic is located 'some morning in
The Herald, then the searcher having found
it once finds it 50 times aud 50 copies of
The Herald are necessary to fill the orders.
Mainly for Business Purpose.
The clipping is simply dividing np news
paper information among those who want
it. Twenty-thousand subscribers to a single
bureau of clipping and 20 professional
searchers reading the thousands of daily
newspapers for them. Many of these sud
seribers do not receive more than 20 or 30
clippings a month, but some big firms and
corporations often have monthly bills run
ning up into the hundreds.
"It is purelv commercial," said Colonel
William F. G. Shanks, showing me the
j prominent names on his list 'they sub
scribe for business reasons. We have not a
single subscriber whose order is not based
upon bnsincss rather than personal reasons.
We have what we call our bankers' special
service a daily service of early informa
tion of proposed issue of State, county,
municipal, water, street, railway or cor
poration bonds. We send special subscrib
ers to this service the first mention of any
proposed loan, trace its history through tho
preliminary legislation, give notice of adver
tisements of sealed proposals for its pur
chase, and finally announce the name of the
purchaser and the price paid for the bonds.
Investment Prospects Matched.
"The report which is printed daily also
gives new organizations ot railways, manu
facturing and other substantial corporations
seeking capital. We have as subscribers
hundreds of the biggest investment banks,
bankers' trus and insurance companies who
want early information of such proposed
issues of bonds; besides a larger number of
investors who wish to know through us the
actual pri-e at which bonds are sold, and
other particulars as to the character of the
securities important knowledge for them
to have at hand when the securities aro
offered for sale- or as collateral for loans.
All this i iformation is official and the fig
ures are down to date of the sale of the
bonds, information, you see, not to be had
from books."
"There must be some odd featur-s of-the
business, are there not?" I inquired.
"Welf, I should say so! If you had been
here an hoar ago you would have seen us
dispatch a man hundreds o'f miles to secure
for a subscriber a dozen copies of a libel
direct from the office of the paper printing
it. We can't avoid doing work of this sort
for subscribers when they insist on paying
handsomely for it.

XABTIK SPOILING FOB A FIGHT.
The
Donihty Texas Judge Would
Have
XnTed to Carve Speaker Reed.
Speaking of Texas recalls the bowle knife
of Judge Martin, and the fact that the next
Congress will be free from the danger of a
thrust from it. Curing his last days in
Congress Martin was pining for a fight. He
went around, it is said, with this bowie
Knife slung back of his neck, and he longed
for an opportunity to use it on the adipose
form of Thomas B. Beed. He could not un
derstand how such words as he heard could
be used in Congress between gentlemen and
not cause a fight. He thought himself the
special protector of Mills, aud he some
times got up close to him during his contro
versies with Beed. At one time, when a
Democratic member denounced Beed, Mar
tin rushed to the front of the House and
threw his bony finger at the Speaker's desk,
and yelled out: "Didn't you hearn it? He
denounced ye, he denounced ye."
He evidently expeoted Beed to come
down from the "Chair and fight, and he was
eager for the fray. Martin looked for days
for the correspondent who reported the
story of his blowing out the gas at Will
ard's Hotel, and he threatened to cut off
the ears of the page who fooled him about
the telephone.
PISTOL OB BOWIE XKL7&
Cassis M. Clay Bays the Latter
Xa the
Weapon to Carry.
During the interview which I recently
had with General Cassius M. Clay, the
Kentucky gladiator, writes Frank Carpen
ter, I asked him which he considered the
safest weapon to use in a personal en
counter, the pistol or the bowie knife. "The
bowie knife by all means," replied General
Clay. "The best of revolvers often misses
fire and you may get so close to your enemy
as to be unable to use it. Your bowie
knife never misses and scientifically used it
will cut to the death every time. Durine
my life I have had to be on my guardT I
would have been dead long aso had I been,
a coward or gone about unarmed. My
bowie knife I have always carried with me
during my campaigns and it has several
times saved my life."
General Clay's house at Whitehall, Ky.,
is built like a fortification. The walls are
very thick and the doors of the interior are
very high and narrow. J. Be building is al
most fire-proof and the greater part of it
was constructed while General Clay was In
the midst of his political troubles and his
enemies were attempting to shoot him or
run him out of the country.

If Sir James Crich;on Brown Is to be be.
lieved, and he Is one of the first physicians
of the day, the time Is fast approaching
when, unless a radical change in manner of
living is made, men will not live ont half
their days. Dr. Brown says that men and
wo en are growing old before their time.
Old age is encroaching on the strength of
manhood, and the infirmities associated
with it are stealthily taking possession of
the system some years earlier than they
were wont to do in former generations.
Deaths due simply to old age aro now re.
ported between 45 and 55 years of age, and
in large numbers between 65 and 60, and
there has been a reduction in the age at
which atrophy and debility another name
for second childishness kill those who have
passed middle life. Presbyopia, or the
long-sightedness of old age, in which near
objects cannot be distinctly seen unless
held at a considerable distance from the
eye, is believed to begin earlier than it
used to da
The eminent oculist, Critchett, says that
his experience of over a quarter of a century
leads him to think that both men and wo
men now seek aid from glasses at an earlier
period of life than their ancestors. From
another authoritative sonree we find that
people who have lived in hot climates Ilka
India become presbyopic four or five yean
earlier than they would otherwise have
done, for life in a hot climate really means
excessive wear and tear to a European.
From the same source we learn that the
ordinary ago for.tho adoption of spectacles
for reading used to be SO: It is now nearer 43.
Dr. Brown further tells us that the teeth aro
dropping out earlier, baldness la mora
prevalent, senile Insanity Is more common,
and suicide is increasing.
These are very unplesant facts, bnt they
appear to be well substantiated. The besS
and truest remedy for iho loss of old age is
to teach children more earnestly the fact
that to enjoy the la-t half of life they must
take care of the first half.

a blend of Indian and Ceylon teas with.
Kentish bops, prepared by a special drying
process. In which the bops come In oontaot
with pure afr only, and are not subjected to
the fumes to which brewers' hops are ex

troduction or the bops not only improves
the flavor of the tea by ginning it a malty
aroma, but the sedative in the hop counter
acts the exciting effect of ordinary tea npon
the nerves. It is also claimed that the tonio

Novel Orans Peeler.
A remarkably Ingenious and simple
orange and lemon peeler is now being Intro
dnced, by which It is claimed LC00 oranges
may be peeled without soiling finger or
glove, or losing a drop of juice. The peeler
is a piece of wire, nickel plated, very much
in the shape nf a button hook, but with a
tiny blade let Into the inner bend of the
book. When the point of the hook Is drawn
into the fruit it slides between the pulp and
the peel without danger of entering either,
while the blade divides the peel easily and
rapidly, after wblou it may be removed
without trouble.
Bicycles for Slilltary Wortc.
It is considered that one man on a bicycle
would outdistance relays of cavalrymen at
30-mlle intervals for 30'J miles. An Important
consideration is whether the btcclo can
carry food enough fora courler,and another
point which h ould have to be definitely
settled by a series of contests Is the kind of
man to be enlisted in a bicycle corpse
whether he should be light and slim, like the
Ueal cavalry soldier, or a large rain, with
the muscle and brawn of the infantry
soldier.
Seat Attachment for Bicycles.
An arrangement has been devised by
means of which children can derive from
bicycling the benefits of rapid motion In tha
open air. This consists of an extra attach
ment, to hold a child in front of the rider in
such a manner that it cannot fall out and
will not throw the machine out of balance,
while it may also be adjusted to snit chil
dren of difleient size. When the child is
not riding the seat may be easily removed
and the bicycle used in the ordinary way.

A new idea to givo an ordinary room tha

closely resemble inlaid wood that only a
connoisseur will detect the difference. An
