Their meals are big

hotels of this city
and St. Petersburg
are aniontr the largest in the world. The
hotel at Moscow must caver five acres, and
you can feed 1,000 people in its restaurant
at one time.

was served under a great dome and my

"When I ordered my fih I stepped up to
the fountain and pointed out the fih I
wanted to the white-gowned waiter, and he
took a net and dipped it out and sent it to
the kitchen. It was a sterlet, which is one
if the finest fishes of Russia, and within
ten minutes after the waiter had carght it
I found it sizzling on a jilate before me. I
take my dinners and mv lunches in the res
taurant, asis the Russian custom, and my

have this when I get up, and it consists of
tea or coffee nitk bread and butter and
nothing more. It 1 order tea the waiter

The servants of a Russian hotel are gen
erally men. They have a livery, nnd the
porters and the messengers go about with
curiously shaped caps on their heads and
their pantaloons stufled in their boots. The
feathers in their caps indicate theirdiflerent
ranks and they all wear long coats, whirh in
tome cases are belted in at the waist. The
porter of the hotel, who is the interpreter
and head of the information bureau, is
dressed as gorgeously as a drum major, and
liis coat always sparkles with gold lace. You
always find him about the door of a hotel,
nnd the hotels here have no offices nor
lobbies bucIi as we have.
Keeping Accounts V.ith Buttons and Strings.
There are no cigar stands, news depots
and telegraph offices connected with the
hotel, and the bureau or the counting room
oi an esiauiisnmcui ni-c i:i-.s mat.es yo
ypu j
mint ol that or a mercantile nouse. The
bookkeepers work behind glass partitions
and they keep a large set ot books. They
do their counting with buttons strung on
wires, just as tiro Chinese do, and this
means ot calculation is found in every busi
ness house in Russia. In iront of this hotel
there are always about 50 droschsky Men,
nnd the moment you go out these drhe up
to the curbstone and besieee you to ride.
They jabber at you in Russian and continue
to do so until vou have taken o'ne of them.
The rooms of tlie hotel are very comfortable

baths. There are few hath rooms connected
with the hotels, and the Russian usually
takes his bath outside at the public bath
house, where he can be steamed, parboiled
and rubbed down. There is a lack of water
in the hotel rooms, and the Russian wash
stand is a thine of itself. It is a sort of
box-shaped article, with a basin in the top
and a reservoir rsnning up at the back, into
which the water is poured by the servants.
Oat of this reservoir there is a brass pipe to
let the water into the basin. It was a Jong
time before I could find how to tnrn the' wa
ter into this pipe. There was no cock, and
no screw, but I finally Jound a little pedal
at the foot of the washstand, and by put
ting my foot upon this found that the water
spurted out into the basin. It stopped 'flow
ing, however, as soon' as I took mv foot oft,
and the result,was that I used but very lit
tle water. The Russians do not fill a basin
full of water and wash in It. They catch
the water as it falls from the spigot and rub
it over their faces, then get another spurt
of a handful or'so and use it in the same
way, and tro on thus until ther have fin
ished their toilet A half pint of water is
thus enough for the Russian face wash
ing. " ' .
A Typical Dinner in Russia.
A Russian dinner is rather a curious
affair and a swell dinner lasts lor hours.
The first thing you take is an appetizer, and
urn consists 01 voaga, a Jiussian brandy,
together with such relishes as caviare, raw
herring, smoked salmon, raw smoked goose,
radishes, butter and cheese. This, lay out
is on a counter at one end of a restaurant
and you usually stand up to eat it before
taking your seat at the table for the regular
dinner. The first part of the dinner is soup,
and a dish of Russian soup is a dinner bv
itself". The most popular, perhaps 'is
known as stchee, which is made of cabbage
and beef, and in the midst of each plate of
which a bit: hunk of beef floats. Sour
cream is otten added to the soup and you
get a gravy dish of cream for a kind of a
sauce nt the first of eTery dinner. The coM
soups are much liked by the Rnssians and I
ordered one to-day without knowing what
it was. It had a creamy color, but there
was in the cen er ot it a piece ot ice as big
as my fist and there were pieces of cucum
ber, herring and meat floating around in it.
I tasted it and it made me think ot boiled
beet served with ice; and the taste was
enough, Some of the soups were very good
and onerder for soup is always enough for
two. " t
The fish that I find here are excellent and
there is a disa called solianka made ot fish
and cabbage which is not at all bad. An
other is a sucking pig boiled and served
cold, and another favorite dish is roast mut
ton stuffed with bucknheat. The -Russians
have excellent meats and yon will get as
good beef and mutton here is anywhere in
OS THE STEEETS.
the world. The butter is invariablr good
and some of that which I have hail is so
sweet that I can cat it like cheese. It is
nc.er salted and it is served in great loaves,
the guest cutting oft as much as he wishes.
The Teas and the TVIne Arc Good.
1 have drunk a great deal of the Russian
wine and I find that the wines of the Crimea
and the Caucasus are very good. The
champagne of the Don is a little sweeter
than "Mumm's Extra Dry" and some of the
wines of the Crimea taste like cider. I do
not like the Russian beer known as kvi,
but the tea is good everywhere, and the
Russian takes a class every hour orso and
merchants do all their business over tea.
The peasants who bring things here to Mot
cow to sell never make a bargain except at
the Traktirs, and you find the samovar and
the tea glass everywhere.
Every one who can afford it smokes in
Russia. Cigarettes are used more than
cigars, and I see very few pipes. The
cigarettes are shorter "than ours, but the
tobacco is good and it is often brought from
Turkey. All tobacco pavs n high revenue
and cigars nre bought on "sight, and not on
smell. To .get a cisar you have to get a
whole box, and the boxes are sold with glass
tops, through which you can see the cigars,
but as these are pasted shut with a revenue
stamp you cannot handle them. These
boxes are of all sires, and in ordering a
cigar at dinner you will have one cigar
brought to you in a little glass box. and a
fairly good cigar will cost you 40 cents.
You will fare better if you smoke cigarettes,
and you must not be surprised it there are
any ladies at the table to see them !moke,
too. Nearly all Russian women smoke
cigarettes, and it is not thought out of place
to see a woman here with a cigarette in her
mouth. There is some snuffing done in
Russia, and though there are no tobacco
cheuers here, the Russians are, like the
Americans, a nation of spitters. You find
spittoons in every room, and the Russian
spittoon is a brass or wooden box filled
with sand.
In Uio Bnsslan Markets.
I visited some of the Russian markets
here the other day, aud they have many
features which could be adopted -with profit
by us. Pish are sold alive, and the ' only
dead ones are the dried ones. They are
kept in stone vats of running water, and
the fishwife till stand with a dozen of
these marble vats about her, each" filled
with different kinds of fish. Russia has
some of the greatest fisheries in the world.
Millions upon millions of dollars worth of
.fish are taken every year from the Volga,
tlicCaspi?n and Black seas and all the
caviare of the world comes from here. "You
see this caviare sold in cans and tubs in the
markets. It looks like biidshot sprinkled
with salt water, and it is made up of the
eggs of the sturgeon, which arc killed for
this purpose.
The queerest markets of Russia are those
of the winter, when all sorts of fish and
meats are told in a frozen state. There are
many curious things sold in the markets
here, and you can buy eels and snakes aud
chicken legs. Lambs' feet are sold as a
great dainty and calves' lect are bought for
soup bones. Among the oils which are used
by the peasants for salads and cooking is
sunflower oil, and one ot the-great indus
tries of this country is sunflower raising.
The peasants eat sunflower seeds in large
qnantities and they nibble at them and
chew upon them as we do neanuts. You can
hardly find a man who has not some sun
flower seeds in his pocket and everywhere
you go you see women with baskets oT
these black and gray seeds for sale. They
taste ery much like pumpkin seeds anil
the peasants eat them at their gatherings
just as the Chinese do watermelon seeds at
the theaters. J'kank G. Carpexteb.

THE EEHEAESALS IN PITTSBUEG.
Gossip 'Going ironnd to the Effect That

GOOD WORK THAT HABAKKUK DID
rwitiTTES- iron TIIE DISPATCH. 1
Eew biographies were written in the days
of Habakknk;orelse they hare gone the
way of most of the world's books, first onto
the top shelf, and then into the waste bas
ket, and then into oblivion. Anyhow, no
life of Habakkuk has survived.
Habakkuk.if he lived up to his good name,
was a good man. Karnes meant something
in that old day. Queer and awkward they
sound to us, but the Hebrews understood
them well enough. Habakkuk means "the
man who loves his fellow men." That is a
name good enough for a Christian.
The prophet, in his writings, does not
tell us ranch about himself. That was not
the way of those good men. They cared
too little about themselves to set down the
details of their personal histories. I sup
pose that it never occared to them that peo
ple would ever be interested in them.
They desired above all things that men
should listen to the message that they
brought and learn it. If they could get
that done, what else had they to care for?
They were satisfied if God knew who they
were.
Mast Have Been a Notable Man.
It is plain, however, that Habakkuk was
a man of importance in his day. The leg
ends indicate that. Legends do not gather
about the names of insignificant people.
The bnrial place of HabaKkuk is still
pointed out in the East, though it is not
likely that he was buried in it. In the
Apocrypha, in the story of "Bel and the
Dragon, ',' an angle carries Habakkuk by the
hair of his head, over lands and seas, with a
bowl of pottase in his haud, that ho may
feed Daniel in the den of lions. There
must have been something notable about
Habakkuk, thus to impress his name and
personality upon his time, aud to be re
membered after he was dead.
This is fnrther.evident from the fact that
he bears a' title. He is the "prophet."
TJiat is, he was no obscure, unknown man
who rose up suddenly, in some emergency,
to preach. He had a'right to preach. That
was what he was for; to that he was com
missioned. He was one of the official re
ligious teachers of his time. It is further
to be noticed that he belonged to a church
choir. This appears in the last chapter of
lib book; Tnus he represents the two ends
of the church, the choir-loft and the pulpit.
This is worth considering.
The Religion of the Choir.
It is said sometimes that the choir is the
least religious part of the congregation. I
hope that this is in some cases true. For if
the rest of some congregations is not more
religious than some choirs, I am sorry for
tne parish, xne proper name lor such a
church would be the Synagogue of Satan. I
have never had any experience with any
other than a Christian choir; but I have
been told of choirs in Pittsburg, some of
which, I understand, have not yet been
converted, where the rehearsals are a dis
grace to decent respectability. The organist
has been drinking too much, and the tenor
has put his lips to the same cup, and the
singing and the playing are an elaborate aud
operatic blasphemy.
I confess that I cannot understand the
objection which is so strongly felt by some
good people against the organ. Rut I am
surprised that among all the sects of Chris
tendom there is not one which takes its
stand"upon the abolition oi the choir.
Choirs are said to fight like cats on mid
night fences; thev are said to read novels
and newspapers during the prayers, and to
play cards behind the organ during the ser
mon, and they are known to sing such
fiendish anthems as to justify the para
phrase of the preacher: "Then coiueth the
anthem, and taketh n ay the word which
Whs sown in their hearts!"
Singing So People Do Not Understand.
Even the most Christian choirs will some
times sing so that nobody can understand
them. The other day I heard the 'first
Terse of "Greenland's Icy Mountains" sung
in Giibrrav. It did not sound so much un
like the singing of some Anglo-Saxon
choirs. But this is the least ot choral of
fenses. A decent choir and, still more, a
Christian choir may be pardoned for
much. I wish that somebody could deny
that a good many choir singers sing, partly
for money and partly for reputation, and
not at all for the service of God; but I do
not like to believe it
Here now, in the face of all this, is a
book of the Bible written by a member of a
choir. Yes, and more remarkable still, by
one whose nlace in the choir loft was with
the orchestra. Habakkuk plaved a horn or
a violin iu the Jerusalem orchestra. And
it is sometimes said that orchestras are
mqsjly pagan. . Here is a book by a member
ot an orchestra, which shows that his music
was an offering to the glory and honor of
God. Habakkuk, it is true, was also a
preacher; but, I doubt not, he felt that he
was about a business just as religious when
he stood'at'his music rest as when he stood
at his pulpit.
The Time When Habakkuk Ined.
Hobody" 'knows just uhen Habakkuk
lived. ."Probably, however, it was in the
days of Jehoikm. epbaniah, who was
Habakkuk' j predecessor in the great work
of preaching to the nation and having all
Palestine lor a parish, died before the
reformation which took place in the rcigu
of Josiah. This appears from the fact that
when that reformation began, when they
found the old Bible in the rubbish
of the church cellar and began to learn
new lessons out of it, Josiah did not call
Zephaniah to bis aid. He called, instead,
upon a woman, Huldah the prophetess,
who was a good faithful preacher'in the
days when women preached. That, under
any circumstances, even though a dozen
Zephaniahs were in call, was a wise thing
to do. .No reformation can have better help
than the counsel of a good wise woman.
However, there being no mention Vhatever
of the prophet's name, it is safe to infer
that he was dead. ,
The reformation was effected, and for a
dozen years all thing went well. There was
order, justice, good government, and relig
ion. Then Josiafidid a very foolish thing,
and all came to an end. '
The War Against Chaklca.
The foolish thing was this: Over iu the
northwest there had been a great revolution.
General Kabopolassar, the officer iu
charge of the garrison at Babylon, had re
volted, joined hands with the Medes and,
thus'strengthened, had attacked and ruined
Nineveh. The old Assyrian empire fell and
and the new Chaldean empire took its
place. The capitol was no longer Nineveh,
but Babvlon. In the meantime in the
southwest there had also been events and
changes. The King of Egypt had gone the
way of all the earth and a new king sat
upon his tlirone. This new king, Pharaoh
Necho, was an ardent fighter. He wanted
somebody to fight with; and he looked about
the planet as mnch of it as was known in
that ancient day and he. made up his mind
that the only power that was strong enough
to make war interesting and profitable was
this new kingdom ot Chaldea. Thus he
gathered up his armies and sallied forth out
of E?ypt against Chaldea. The line ot
march lay through "Palestine. And as the
hosts swept by King Josiah with his little
handful of soldiers somehow got it into his
mind that it was his duty tp attack them. It
was a lodlsih venture. It was like a little
dog rushing out to assail a caravan of ele
phants. The Egyptians stopped a moment
to break in pieces the army of Israel and to
kill the unwise king, and then ther pushed
on to the Euphrates.
Saw Life at Its Best.
Thus that good King Josiah died, and all
things went wrong again. Jehoikim ruled
in his stead, and Jehoikim was but another
line of royal reprobates. In his days lived
Habakkuk. The times were bad, the court
war bad, but the people were not yet cor
rupted. The reformation had not accom
plished all that good men had hoped for it,
but it bad accomplished a great deal.
Habakkuk has no need of Zepbaniah's
strong denunciations. Perhaps things Were
worse than he was aware. Habakkuk was,
as we have seen, an official prophet, a court
Ereacber, an ecclesiastic. And, naturally,
e saw life from the best side. He saw the
people in their Sunday clothes. -It was a
real disadvantage to Habakkuk to be thus
in office, nnd a preacher by profession.
It is a disadvantage for the preacher to
day to be a clergyman, and to lire a differ
ent life from other men. Habakkuk did
not see so much of the people as Zephaniah
did, nor as Micah did who lived among
them. The roost that he saw was that there
was oppression in the land, and gross injus
tice: the bad misused the good.
A-Scrmon and a Hymn.
But this was text enough. Habakkuk
fell to studving it The problem of the
Book ot Job, and of the psalm ot Asaph,
the problem of the prosnenty of the wicked,
forced itselt upon his attention. How
could he solve it? "What could he answer
the men and women who cried out of the
deep to know the reason why? The more
he thought about it the harder it all
seemed.
Tbus the book begins. It is in two parts;
the. first partis a sermon, the second is a
hymn. The sermon is in the form of a di
alogue between the speaker and God.
The problem is stated, and God gives a
solution. There will be an end, He says, to
all this unrighteous oppression. Away in
the East, the Chaldeans are making ready
their armies. General Nabnpoiassar, the
usurper, is dead and Kebuchadnezzer, his
son, is reigning; Babylon has become the
foremost city in the world. It is five times
the size ot our nineteenth century London.
It is surrounded by a double row of massive
walls, 300 feet in height, and so wide that a
four-horse chariot can turn upon the top of
them. Within the precincts of che king's
palace, which is named the "Admiration of
Mankind," are the hanging gardens, one of
the seven wonders ot the ancient world.
Month by month, the Chaldean power is
growing stronger. The Egyptian host is
encamped by the Euphrates, and day by day
The Hoar of the Crisis
of battle approaches. Chalilca is to win;
the Egyptians are to be driven back, fight
ing as they go, along the roads ot Palestine;
Judea is to be conquered, as the victorious
host returns, and its people carried into
exile. Habakkuk looks for telief from in
justice, and God 'shows him this. The end
of oppression is to be the end of the nation.
But the remedy is worse than the disease.
That this great, wicked nation should de
stroy Judea is but a repetition ot injustice
on a" wider scale. Not ouly are the right
eous destroyed with the wicked, but tne
bad fall before the worse. Evil is still tri
umphant Habakkuk cries again, How
can this be?
And God answers. This evil nation shall
not live lorevcr. Its triumph shall be tem
porary. Already it has shown the five
symptoms of the disease which shall de
stroy it Babylon is ambitious, covetous,
violent, drunken and idolatrous. And it
must fall, as every nation living such a life
must fall. The Lord is in His holy temple.
He will make His presence to be felt.
But what comfort is there for the right
eous? They say that a German monk was
one day climbing on his Knees up the holy
stairs at Rome, and as he went there came
into his heart, between the words ot praver,
this sentence of this ancient preacher: "The
just shall Jive by faith." Not by penance,
not by meritorious works, not by climbing
holy stairs, but by faith shall the just live.
That is God's answer for the righteous. It
is an emphasizing of the value of the spirit
ual side of life.
Adversity Not a Bevine Curse.
Men of God had long taught in Judea
that the Heavenly Father blesses goodhess
with material prosperity, and visits sin1 with
adversitv, and poverty'and ruin. That was
the best'they knew. But, little by little,
they had been learning better. In Habak
kuk's time men had seen that evil king
Manassah die full ot length of days, and the
good king Josiah cut off in the flower of his
youth. 'ihey lud seen an evil nation
blessed, as it seemed, with prosperity, and
a reformed nation menaced with disaster.
They, had learned, what we to-day know,
very well, that adversity is not a sign of
the curse of God. It was a hard lesson to
learn. We ourselves, with all the apostles
and our Lord Himself to teach us, find it
a difficult page to master. In Habakkuk's
time'it came as a new revelation. It was
the prophet's message.
Disaster yes: aud the good and evil over-
whelmed.together in an undiscriminating
ruin yes; and the pagans ot corrupt Baby
lonia rejoicing in their triumphs yes. But
what are all the takings ot cities worth
compared with his reward who rules his
own spirit? The best ot life is character.
All is an element of success which brings
man uearer to God.
Tho Preacher ot Consolation.
"The just shall live by faith." Habakkuk
is the preacher ot consolation. "The man
who loves his fellow-men," we found to be
the meaning of his name. And his book
justifies his title. Troubles deepen upon
us; in the world we have tribulation; but
along this path we may aporoach to God.
In spiriual riches consists the blessing of
the ri?hteou..
Then follows Habakkuk's hymn, to the
glory and greatness of God. "Although the
tig tree slull not blossom, neither shall
lrnit be on the vines; the labor of the olive
shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat;
the flock Khali be cut off from the fold, and
there shall be no herd iu the stalls; yet will
I rejoice iu the Lord, I will jy in1 the God
of uiv salvation." Geokoe Hodges.

that a 'man's feet 1 inch in height should
weigh 120 pounds; one G feet 2 inohes, 12G

height of 6 full feet should weigh 178
pounds.
Superstition in Borneo.
The British Consular agent in North
Borneo says that on the west coast several
people have been seriously hnrt by trying
to fly out of coccanut trees, and in some
districts the paddy planting season has been
allowed to pass without planting the crop.
This is due to a curious superstition about
a forthcoming general jubilee when every
thing may bo left to take care of itself, when
paddy will spring up ot its own accord, and
people get wings and fly through the
air.

Corbett's Claim That He Introduced
Purely Scientific Boxing.
WHAT HE SATS ABOUT SULLIVAN.
Something- Must Be Done to Arouse Wan
ing Interest in Baseball.
LOCAL PROSPECTS FOE NEXT TEAR
Probably the most important and inter
esting sporting leature of the week has
been the publication of a letter written by
James J. Corbett telling his San Francisco
'friends how he became champion. To me
that letter is exceedingly important because
of.two things: .First That it is so full of
inaccuracies, and second that .in it Mr.
Corbett would try to persuade people that
purely scientific boxing was of his intro
duction. This brings to the iront the
question as to whether or not scientific box
ing is of recent origin, as far as fighting is
concerned. This is one of the most inter
esting questions of to-day, and I know that
thonsands of people are always eager to
read or talk about it Boxing was never as
popular as it is to-day and we find it being
taught in almost every institution of
higher education.
Well now, so, that I will not misrepresent
what James J. Corbett says, I quot.e from
his letters. He says:
As Tar back as I can remember boxers, or
rather fltfhters, used to sinnd up toe to tne

the most punishment would generally win

so on up until about eulli van's timo. Then

was-the flisc one to use the lo;t on Sullivan.
Mr. Corbett's Very Great Mistake.
The above statement is the most ridicu
lous that has ever appeared in print on box
ing, and had Sullivan, Mitchell, ICilrain or
anybody else made it any one of them would
have been called an "ignorant blowhard."
Now, while there was scientific boxing
nearlr a century ago, I will not go that far
back to prove conclusively the nonsense of
Champion Corbett. I will mention a few
facts that have happened during the lives
of many of us and before a young man like
Corbett was born.
Barney Aaron was one of the most scien
tific men that ever entered a ring. He de
feated very big men entirely by his science.
nnd he lought his last battle, I think, iu
1867. Jem Mace appeared in the ring years
before Corbett was born, and surely Mace
did not stand "toe to toe" with his oppo
nents. Had Mace done this with big men
like Hunt and King he would hare been
killed. But he used both hands, his feet
and his head, and more scientifically than
any man who ever lived before him or since
his dav. Sayers, although not an extremely
scientific man, used the very "side step" in
his fight with Heenan that Corbett would
have us believe is of his own invention.
There was a time when there was hardly
any boxing at all in prize fighting, but most
certainly that time uas long, long before
Corbett was thought of. Jem Ward was an
extremely scientific man and that's how he
defeated his big opponent and became cham
pion in 1825. The truth is that as far as the
art of boxing is concerned Corbett did not
show a single movement that was not al
ready known. True, he used some move
ments in a most dexterous way, as he is a
very active and clever fellow, but what I
claim is he showed no original movement
Another Fallacy Pointed Out.
Corbett coes on to say in his letter:
"What proved most successful in my fight
with Sullivan was the very latest move that
I have. It was a peculiar side step that I
have and by it the worst I can get is a jab
on the shoulder."
Here ngai.i Corbett is wrong, because the
"side step" is not the "latest" move; it is
very much older than Corbett and before
his time men used it with just as much suc
cess as he can. Years ago Edwards' boxing
manual appeared and it has this to say
about the side step: "There is no maneuver
in the whole art or boxing that is so timely
and useful as the one known as the side
step. It is generally resorted to in avoid
ing your opponent's most furious rushes,
especially it he is a good deal heavier man
than you are and comes in at you constantly
to force you to infighting." Edward then
proceed to show how the side step is made,
and Corbett's manner of doing it was no
improvement at all on the advice given by
the writer of the book.
All boxing movements were easy to per
form in front of Sullivan at New Orleans.
Corbett had plenty of time at all stares
and he performed his part well, but in try
ing to persuade his friends that he intro
duced a new method of boxing he is simply
playing the part of a quack.
Another remarkable statement in his let
ter is that he gives an opponent no time
to put his hands down, and thereby tires
his'opponent's arms. This is an interesting
statement in view of the tacts and circum
stances of Corbett's contest with Jackson.
The former really kept so far out of the
way that Jackson could not only have
rested his arms, but could have taken a sit
down. Corbett further goes on to talk
about the brutality of the London prize
ring rules as compared with the Marquis of
Queensberry rule". Let.rae say that where
there has been one man knocked senseless
u-ider old-time prize ring- rules ten
have been so knocked under Queens
berry rules here gloves have been
used. Queensberry rules wero not
conceived to govern finish contests. The
Marquis invented them to guide scientific
boxing contests only and I still hold the
notion that a finish fight under Queens
berry rules and with gloves is more brutal
than a bona fide prize ring battle.
Now, don't let it be understood that I am
endeavoring to disparage the merits of
James J. Corbett. I am not. But I am
trying to show that he is claiming what he
has no right to claim and that if he believes
what he says is true his historical knowledge
ot boxing "and pugilism is very defective,
indeed.
Tho Latest From Mr. Mitchell.
Charles Mitchell, tor a time at least, is
free from the unmerciful clutches of the
"English law and has definitely declared
that he is ready to fight Corbett next May.
I am incliued to think that Mitchell will do
ixhat he says and his latest offer is such a
plain and fair one that corbett cannot very
well avoid accepting it Mitchell offers to
fight1 the American champion at New Or
leans for a satisfactory purse aud a bet of
$10,000 a side.
Let me ask you people who are always
railing against Mitchell and terming him
windbag, etc., what you think of that offer?
Could anything be fairer? And also let me
ask that if it is not accepted nhst will you
think of the man who declines it? While I
may not be impressed with the notion that
Mitchell can defeat Corbett, I do claim
that Corbett as champion boxer, or cham
pion anything else, ought to be entirely
ignored if he does not tranklv and fairly
come to terms for a contest witn Mitchell.
A day or two ago Corbett declared .that he
would not be prepared to meet 'Jackson for
12 months This is simply preposterous
and has reduced this championship business
to a complete farce. Goddard is claiming
the title by default while he has agreed to
fight Peter Maher, a man whom-Fitzsim-mons
very easily beat And on the other
hand we. have Corbett declaring that Fits
simmons is not in his class and,' therefore,
will not fight him. This is all very amus
ing. A Few Words About Baseball.
While the world's championship series
has aroused a little enthusiasm hera and
J there, there is not that amount of interest
being centered In the contest as there was
in former similar contests. Ot course,
there are many causes for this lack of en
thusiasm, and one of them it the double
season. The truth is, that something Terr
great will be needed to restore the national
game to its former prestige.
So far the world's championship contest
has been interesting to those who are tak
ing notes of '.t While the Bostons look
like winners, there is always such n uncer
tainty about baseball that we can never ,fell
what is, going to happen. The Cleveland
games were ot a kind to please all classes
Ot cranks. The team war nl Ttitrhed.
but at critical times the Bostons showed
tne better nerve, and that won them the
Yictories.
Financially the games onght to be a suc
cess, and it would certainly have paid the
club to have plsyed'agame here. They
wonld have made lots of money.
The general baseball situation is not of
the most attractive kind. There is consid
erable dissatisfaction among the players
and there are even rnmors of another .re
volt Ot course there is not much likeli
hood of anything of the kind. There; are
many obvious reasons why we ( shouldn't
believe those stories of intended rebellion.
If there were means of making such a re
volt it would be foolish and ruinous to - do
so. But the magnates should by all means
try to do something to restore harmony
among the players and patrons of the game.
Depend upon it magnates have a few very
serious questions to face before next season,
and they ought to face these questions in a
spirit of fairness and justice.
Affairs of the Local Ball Clab.
Local baseball club affairs are going along
quite satisfactorily, and alrcsHv can
hear people talking about the great pros
pects for next year. This "next year" busi
ness has lost its force by repetition, but 'I
am inclined to think that one of the best
teams in the country will be in Pittsburg
next year. -There are good reasons for thus
anticipating, and one strong one is that we
will have all of our good players and very
likely one or two others of great repute.
The club officials have made satislaetorr
arrangements with all the local players lor
next seasou except Farrell and Baldwin.
Unless something verv extraordinary and
quite unexpected happens I don't think
there will be much trouble in signing either
of the players it they desire to remain in
the business. As I understand the matter
their .obfectlon is simnlv eonrlnnH tn tliM
reduction or salary for next yexr. Of course
they have a right to object. Tout In objecting
they should consider how tho club U going
to realize big tal.irles. Of late ball playors
nave been receiving salaries muoh higher
than the conditions or the business war
ranted. I have strongly maintained this
and at the same- time argued that salaries
should bo reduced in a fair and legal way.
lllgh salaries cannot be paid under pi eseut
circumstances. If the magnates would get
baseball back to wrier It was then all
would be prosperous again.-
llanager iluckenborgor intends to remain
in the city during tlm winter, aud this will
be to the club's advantage. 1 really do nut
know of a more rellablo aim industrious
man than A. C Bnckenberger, and most as
suredly the local club has nothing to fear If
hols looking after the team lor -next year.
lie works lor success and that's bow lie gets
lc. There are noisier men, bnt none more
successful than Manager Ilnokenberger. Ha
thinks he wilt have one or 'two irreat new
players next season. There is reason to be
lieve that he will, because it is a fact that
goou players are no longer opposed to com
ing to Pittsburg: in tact they want to come
here now. Charley Farrell has given the city
auch-agood name throughout the baseball
profession that star players are just as anx
ious to como here as to go to any other
club. The truth is that Farrell himself had
not a very high opinion of Pittsburg until
he came here and iouild our good qualities
out, and also found a good baseball team.
Tho prospects, then, are very good.
An .Enthusiastic Football Season.
More than twelve months ago I argued
that football was the coming sport of
America, and judging from the enthusiasm
that has characterized the opening or the
football season this year my prediction Is
not wido ot the murk. I venture to say that
if the weather is at all favorable this, will be
the greatest foqtball seasou on record. So
far It has been remarkable and none of us
can remember such an enthusiastic opening.
To be sura "Buguy" football has the call,
and already this season I have noted strong
complaints about the rouzhnessor the game.
I have discovered this, readers, before, but
let me say that much of the rouliness of the
game is because or a violation of the rnles.
Certainly the game is not as gentle as that
or "Kiss in the King, ' and it would not be
worth seeing if it was. Where twenty-two
young athletes aro putting their strength,
activity and skill into operation, accidents
uio always liable. And it Is nonsense to de
cry the sport because or the accidents.
Serious accidents have oconrred in "baseball,
cricket, bout rowing, and in short in all
branches of sport
But there i one thing that can be clone,
and that is what we know as "slagging" can
be l educed to a minimum, if lc can not bo
entirely prevented. Italerees oan stop this

Clever Devices Used to Prevent Fraud in
the Ancient Game.
North American Beriew.J
The number of dice used was three, being
marked with a minimum of one and a max
mum of six spots. The most fortunate throw,
called venereus by Cicero (de Divm.1, 13),
and basilicus by Plautus (Curculio, ii., 3,
7p), was when the dice showed three seniones
or 18 spots. The progress of the game was
marked on the board by the movement of
the men (latrunculi) backward and for
ward. The' gravity of the losses depended
naturally upon the amount of money at
stake anil the fines that were paid when
the dice showed one or more aces.
It is difficult to explain what skill had to
do with such a game, 'still Isidores de
scribes how inveterate gamblers could suc
ceed in throwing the six aud avoiding the
unit. In a graffito at Pompeii an honest
player congratulates himself for having
gained a good sum'of money withont fraud.
Plantds dwells sometimes on the dishonest
practices, to avoid which' several instru
ments were invented from time to time,
such as the h6rn (pyxis cornea) and the
fritillus.
It seems, however, that these instru
ments did not always fulfill their purpose.
A third one was Invented, in the shape
of a tower, with a 'spiral staircase inside
and a funnel on the top. The dice shaken
first in the horn, or in the Iritillus, were
thrown into the funnel and rolled down the
spiral stalrcase-nntil they landed on the
table. Such precautions rendered cheating
almost impossible. ""
The Smallest Picture Made.
Probably the smallest painting ever
made was the work or the wife of a Flemish
artist. It depicted a mill with the sails
bent, the miller mounting the stairs with a
sack of grain on his back. Upon the ter
race where the mill stood was a cart and
horse, and on the road leading to it
several peasants were shown. The
picture was beautifully finished, and every
obfect was very distinct.yet it was so amaz
irfzly small that its surface could be covered
with a grain ot corn.
