Mary CuniO.. the Beggar.

The richest hunting ground for a female
oeggar would seem to be New Mexico and
Southern Colorado, where the scarcity of
women predisposes the average citizen to
gallantry toward the fair sex, and natural
recklessness makes him extravasant in his
generosity. Mary Cunio, resident in
Denver, but often on the tramp, is a men
dicant by profession, and a drunkard by
way OF recreation. She frequently has
several thousand dollars ia her possession,
and is 4 regular and : large depositos "a
one Of the Denver banks. At short IN
tervals she starts upon a begging expsdi-
ton southwark, and always returns with
a good supply Of money, Then she en-
joys her prosperity by going on a wild
spree. Recently she deposited 81, 400
with the Chief Of Police for safe keeping.
Another police officer says that he has
seen her returning from one of her ex-
petitions with as much as s. $1,000. 1t is
thought that she is o good deal of a
capitalist.

attraction being announced q hard glove
fight between Owen Judge and Dan.

$3.50. The audience was composed mainly
of well known members of the sporting
yers and politicians were also observed to
occupy front seats. When time was called,
and Judge and O'Connell appeared in the
ring, Capt. Douglass of the police force
stepped to the front and demanded to see
the gloves to be used by the fighters. A
pair Of ordinary gloves were shown him,
when he said he would not permit such
implements of Brutality to be used, and
that unless regular boxing gloves were
substituted the fight would be stopped at
once. Much to the disgust of the crowd
stuffed gloves were accepted, and the mill
commenced. The fight was of very short
duration, lasting only three brief rounds.
O'Connell was punched, mauled, and
bounced like a ball about the ring, and
proved to be no match at all for Judge.
At the end Of the third round, when time
was called. O'Ccnnell failed to come to
the scratch. Judge was declared the
winner, and the purse was handed over to
him.

Ismailia, says writer in the New York
Herald, is mushroom city. Like Jonah's
gourd, it sprang up, comparatively speak
ing, in a night. When the canal was in
course of construction NJ. de Lesseps saw
the necessity of building town about half
way between Port Said and Suez. Such d
town would be basis for stores; it would
supply the many thousand workmen with
water and other necessaries, and moreover
it would be place where the principal
officials could reside and direct operations
on every side. lie chose a sand ridge oppo-
site Lake Timsah for the site. Here and
there grew clump OF date palms, but east
and west there stretched the yellow desert, 30
bare, so monotonous and so uninviling that
no eye less sharp than that of the great
engineer could have discovered the capabili-
ties of the place as the site for town. NJ
de Lesseps, however, saw its capabilities.
With his customary energy he set his men
upon the work. Streets and blocks were
outlined upon the sand; stone from adjacent
quarries was brought In abundance, and
mortar was made upon the SPOT. In few
weeks city had arisen, with houses,
streets, avenues, palaces, public squares and
public garden. This wonderfully built
town was named In honor of the late Khe-
dive Ismail

If the mere act of whstling can help and

them come many more such occasions than
TO men. There are many who have not the
gift of song. Why should not they whistle
as they rock the cradle or perform their
household duties, or accompany themselves
on the piano? But there is physical or
hygiene advantage in whstling which
should excuse It against all the canons Of
propriety or good form" 1t is often re-.
marked that the average girl is so narrow

One of the most eccentric wills of modern
times has just been quietly set aside by Vice
Chancellor Bacon in the Chanccry Division of
the High Court of Justice. The document in

sitions were made in codicil, which direct
ed certain appointed trustees, Immediately

be bricked up in Il solid manner, and to con-
tinue the bricking up for twenty years.

rections should he carried out to the letter,

FARMING IN THE UNITED STATES.

this country is invested in agriculture. The
