A MlLL1oxA1RE,s GENEROSITY.

The Bible says that the widows
mite given in the temple was more ae-
ceptable in the sight of Heaven than
the contributions of the rich. On the
same principle man who on moderate
income gives turkey to the Orphans
Home does more according to his
means than Senator Fair, who has just
given $500 to that charity. Fair pays
taxes on $40, 900, 900, and $500 is about
10 cents on every $1,000 he owns. He
gets great deal of credit for it in the
papers when he really deserves to be
scored for not building a new Orphans
Home while he is about it, and giving
it enough money to run for the next
twenty years. Such il paltry Pitian,e
from 50 wealthy source is simply Il
miserable burlesque on generosity and
outrages the name of charity.

THE OHIO ELECTION

The Republicans have only them
selves to blame for the defeat in Ohio.
They attempted to dictate to the peO-
pie from temperance platform which
had no place in politics. One of the
planks denied the right of the German
citizens to drink beer on Sunday. This
was the fatal mistake of the campaign,
and it is not to be wondered at that the
Germans, and in fact hundreds of other
people who believe in letting such
questions regulate themselves, voted
the other ticket.

the contrary his brother (the General)
was in the Senate when the bill was
under discussion, and urged all his
friends TO support it. He felt almost
a personal interest in the passage of
the measure, and did all that he could

Aoh AOEA 1lluuuts ousl
At Harry" Hills theater yesterday
afternoon about 1900 persons gathered
to see and hear John. l.. Sullivan, the
pugilist. Since the prize fight at New
Orleans there has been a growing
grievance between Sullivan and Ryan.
1t has led to an open hostility. Re-
ordinations have passed, and Sulli-
van, after receiving $4,000 yesterday as
balance due him as winnings, made
known his wrongs. The money was
given him by Mr.. Hill, who presented
him to those present with a few re.
marks. Sullivan in appearance is
prepossessing. He is tall and we'll
developed physically. His arms are
immensely muscular and his move
ments very rapid. He weighs, out of
training, l75 pounds. He said that
he had fought a fair fight. Ryan ac-
knowledged to him that he had been
whipped because he could not prevent
1t. he was prepared to Whip Ryan
any time, and if he could meet him
in gloves he would give him plenty
to do. If Ryan desired any help he
was willing to tender it, but he wanted
it understood hat whining would not
better it a bit. Sullivan said that his
trainer, William Madden, had been
offered $1,000 to poison him. BE at

terested in Ryan's victory, but not to
Ryan himself. Ryan came to him
Immediately after the fight and told
him he (Sulliyan) was a natural prize
fighter, and that he (Rysn) was fool
ish to attempt to whip him-that he
had received no more than his des-
serts. In conclusion Sullivan spoke
of his gratitude to his trainer, ami in
a dramatic manner vowed to stick by
him."
Before the people departed Sullivan
spared with Mr.. Madden. The con-
test lasted ten minutes, and resulted
in a draw. No date has been set for
Ryan's benefit, and the probabilities
are against any amicable arrangement
between the rival pugilists.

tan undertaken, N. MosperO thinks,
which has been brought to light after
the lapse Of $500 years. In addition
to this important 6nd of royal
mummies with inscribed papyri
and collins more than thirty centuries
old, several minor discoveries
have been recently made. One is a
large stone tablet, with a degree Of the
synod of priests inscribed in three
texts, Greek, h~ieroglyphie and demo-
tic. 1t lisa hundred years older than
the famous Rosetta stone that has
served as a key to the Interpretation
of Egyptian writings, Another is
two royal tombs, which present the
earliest known examples of the arch.
and show that that device was known
in Egypt before it was to the Romans.
A third is the secret entrance to the
pyramid of Maydoom, which shows
an interior construction some
what similar to that of Ghizeh. The
within lead to the belief
that its dateis 1900 B. c., which would
make it older than the Great Pyramid
of Cheops and the oldest known mon
ument in the world. The main gallery
in the pyramid is blocked up BY the
of the roofand at the latest ac-
counts workmen were engaged in re-
moving the obstruction, so that the
chambers and galleries which lie be-
yOnd may be explored for mummies
and inscriptions.
