( PROUD PHTKU JACKSON.
Peter JaekFOn. the greatest glidlator
the black race has ever produc- d. is an
unhappy, dls-contented man. He is as
proud as Lucifer, and extiemly -sensitive
on the score of his color. A
hundred years ego T think he would
have been a splendid African king.
Before he got broken down In health
he mlsht have divid d honors with An
tonio Alaceo In b.ittlirg for the liberty
of Cuba, fo- no ore Piirf--rs m to keenly .

Frank P. f-liv'n, Jackson's great
Aiiftralian rival, has a eonsu-rdng am
bition .to becomo a millionaire nnd
globe trotter. He has a fad which
some day he he, pea may make him
"rich beyond the drenmes of avrlce."
He Ii enamored of patents. Almost
nry kind of an Invention can make
Mm open h's purse strings. H" Is now
rwner of twenty-two ood patents, any
one of whleh may land him a winner.
Peter Mnher's sole ambition Is to
whljj Bob Fit:sommons, then the win-
ner of the Corbett-Sharkey fight and
retire as champion of the world. With
the money and prestlire thus gained
he will open up a cafe or hotel in
Pitti-btirg, enter the field of politics,
and try to become an nlde-rman In that
lively trwn.
Po'i Flfsitrmons' whole Idea is to
i:al-p all the rnorey lie can by "show-iiie,-"

$100,000 he has -Hiu'.n-leieil du-lnff the
past decade. When that Is done, he
will open up a photonraphis studio in
I'.oston. He was brought up In the
bn-iness and understands It thorough
ly. His ambition is to have as grea:
an art calkry as Saiony in New York.
The other colored fighter. Joe Wal
cott. the "Mack demon." to, Has an
ambition. Joe is a arieat fefder. and
im with dllliculty be restrained In
trair.ii.g. The sable satan wishes to
whip "Mysterious" Iiilly Smith. or

res'nurant in New York a-d, eat t hli

Solly Sn lth, the game lltt'e feather
weight, has a sirriiar ambition. He
waits to whip right off the reel Willie
Fnl:!i, of England, and George Dixon,
of Amtrlca. Then with his backer,
Johnlle Mnok, he proposes to open up
a banking house in San Francisco, his
native town.

consume neaily every great tighter I
knew. You will notice that many of
them have honorable aspirations, quit
, iid much so as men engaged in less
unluoiis, if more peaceable, pursuits
I prod lot that many of them will bo
l heard from In a creditable way before
a dosen years have gone by. I'll gam
ble all I am worth that none of them
' will ever commit a crime. And. mark
you, have yon noticed how few pugil
ists have cvr committed crimes? I
mean real crimes, such as murder, ar
son, burglary, robbery and the like.
And pugilists are supposed wrongful-
' !y, of course to be a lawb:ea!;ing c!a-n
at that. 1 nevtr knew but one pugil-

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Hellefonte, Pa., Sept. 22. Although a
great e ort was made to get the f'ot
ball men In training, few men at flrt
responded. Fcot ball seemed somewhat
discouraging when a number of t:d
men did not report for practice. Dur
ing the last week a vigorous call for
new men has been made and it Is now
surprising to see nearly thirty candl-
I dates on the field, engaged in various
j forms cf practice.
Cartain J. A. Dunsmore hns arrang-
' ed a form of nrelimlnary prnct!c and
: a system of "hardening up" is niw be

Republican Siate Committee Meeting
Shews That Everything Is Serene
io the Old Kejitone State.
Philadelphia, Sept. 22. A largely at
tended meeting of the Republican state
committee was held here today at the
committee's headquarters. Among
those present were: Congressman John
B. Robinson, of Media, and William A.
Stone, of Allegheny; ex-Lieutenant
Governor Watres and William Connell,
of Lackawanna; Thomas. V. Cooper, of
Delaware; W. W. Grlest. Erie; States
Senator Wllllnm H. Andrews, Crawford
county, and Lyman D. Gilbert, Harris
burg, and others.
State Chairman John P. Klkin, of
Indiana county, presided. He said he
was gratified with the outlook in Penn
sylvania, and continued: "We want to
reach the highest water-mark of all the
great majorities given by the Republi
can party in this state. I am satisfied
thnt a larger one will be rolled up for
McKlnley and Hohart than has ever
been given." Chairman Elk in then di
rected the calling of the roll of coun
ties so thnt reports could be received
from the members.
Mr. Planka, from Berks county, rep
resented the Democracy as divided In
thnt county. He believed that the
"Gibraltar of Democracy" will be found
In the Republican column after the next
election. The representative from Ln
caster stated that that county will give
from twelve to fifteen thousand Repub
lican majority. Lebanon promised a
Republican majority of from 3,'MIO to
3.500, and Schuylkill's report was. to the
effect that the fight there la hard, but
the Republicans expect to eloct Con
gressman Prnmm and to roll up a ma
jority for MeKI-dey.
At the conclusion of the reports Fy
ecntlvo Comn'Ittee CbnlrTian Boyer
stated tbst he wa confident Penn
sylvania would c-lve 300.000 majority for
McKinley and Hobart.

CARPETINGS
Water-Damaged
It is well known that our fine stock of Carpets, Draperies,
etc., lias never been offered at "great reductions," "clearance
sales," etc., for the reason that the goods were new and select
in styles, durable in quality, and right in price.
The recent fire in the Coal Exchange has made conditions
different. The pattern and quality is still the same, but the
appearance is somewhat impaired by having been wet.
Our trade is such that we cannot afford to have anything
in the store with even a suspicion of damage. Therefore,
every grade of goods must be closed out for what it will bring
whether damaged or not. If you need anything for floors or
windows, you may never again have the opportunity of buying
such goods at such prices.
p
SVlcC
and Mr. KUsellburt; talked over the
matter.
No direct evidence has yet been sub
mitted to the attorney general against
the trust so far as can be learned.
Attorney General Hancock said today
that he might have something to say
publicly In a few days regarding the
alleged existence of a coal trust.
