Quit the nOn-esSentialS, my dear brother.
In the name of God, / ask you in regard to-

you do not play the fool.
What is that man doing in Bowlinep
Green, New York? Well, he is going iTs
for a transatlantic voyage. He is quarrel;
ing with the clerk about the spots-the ret
spots on the ticket-and he is quarrelings
ABOUT the peculiar signature of the PRESIDENT
OF the steamship company, and, he is quar-
reling about the manner of the clerk who
hands him the ticket.
How long has he BEEN standing there?
Three weeks. Meanwhile. le.sperhapsitwenty
steamers have gone out of port, and hear

stands III BowlingGreen discussing the ticket.
what do you say in regard to that man?
Y on say he is fool. Well, in that yerv
way are many men acting in regard to the
matter of the soul. They are cavilingJ
about the atonement, the red spots on thei
ticket, about the character of the minister
who hands them the ticket, about whether
1t has divine or human signature, and
meanwhile all their opportunities for heaven
are sailing out of the harbor, and hear the
last tap of the bell announcing their last
chance for heaven. Go aboard. Do not
waste any more time in higgling and carp
ing and criticising and wondering, and, in
the presence of an astounded heaven, play
ing the fool.

Big Petroleum Boom,

ist, made an examination of the premises
ana a snort time since commenced drilling
well at place called Four Mile run. al
most at the top of the mountain. A depth
Oh l,S2O feet was reached by the drill, when
the work ceased and experts flocked to the
scene. a minute examination was made,
Wnen II was found that the
tube contained 5000 feet of petro-
leum, although the well had not been
shot" The sands from the well men
toned are the same as found in the clover
country field, only little coarser. a fact
that denotes rich deposit. These facts
have just leaked out. 1t has also become
known that the question of the title to the
land on which this well is located has been
brought up and legal steps have been taken
TO settle the matter. In the meantime per-
sons owning or leasing adjacent property
are making extensive preparations for the
drilling of several wells, and a few davs

places are discussing the situation, and

Doings of u Crank.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, July 19.-There is no end to
the assumption of clairvoyants. There is
neither end nor beginning to the credulity
of some people. Carl Medow, the marshal
of the town of Dalton, is made a special eX-
ception in this case. A few days ago his
store in Dalton was robbed of $500 worth
of goods. He had no confidence in detec-
tives. This may account for all his subse-
quent foolishneSS. In his mind it was
close call between detectives and clairvoy-
ants. The latter class seemed to have the
best Of it and he consulted one of them.
She told him that the goods had been sto en-
by Henry Albrecht of No. 6S7 South Nor
gan street, Mrs. Brandt of Dalton and
another person from Dalton, whom she
could not describe accurately. The mar
shal believed implicitly in her rawlings, and
got out warrant to search AIbrecht's
house The search was fruitless, and
Medow went away disquieted. He hap
pened, however, to remember that Mrs
Brandt was talking to him in front of his
store about the time the robbery occurred.
Accordingly he got out a warrant for her
arrest and also for the arrest of Albrecht.

How Minister Crawford Took Well
lingtOn in to Dinner.

Savannah News.
Hon. William Fl. Crawford of Georgia
represented the United States as minister
to France during a part of the time
Napoleon BOnaparte was emperor and
Louis XIII. king. After the battle of
Waterloo, Louis returned to France and
was reseated on the throne.
On one occasion he gave a state dinner.
and, as is well known, men and women on
such occasions are seated according to their
rank. Royalty first then dukes, earls,
lords, etc. On the occasion referred to the
Duke OF Wellington was present, and on
account of his high rank (none present be-
ing of his rank) he was alone. The others
had their superiors and equals, and went in
pairs to the dining-room.
Mr.. Crawford, who did not speak French.
and perhaps not thinking of court etiquette,
and seeing the Duke of Wellington walking
slone, walked up to him and pleasantly
aaid: Your Grace, will walk with you,"
and, taking his arm, the rest stared at him,
Gsking. who is that man with the duke?
But Mr.. Crawford, massive in frame,
standing over six feet, and no doubt the
equal of any there in intellect, WaS'not the
least embarrassed.
1t is said that the first time Napoleon
saw him he was struck with his appearance,
and remarked: ''There is great man."
Mr.. Crawford was plain and simple in man
ners, and never put on any airs OF dignity
or superiority.

HanIan Fails to Put Up.

Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, July 19.-When Teemer,
the McKeespOrt OarSman, challenged Han
Ian to row, he left 81, $50 in the hands of
Benjamin GarnO, editor of the Clipper.
Teemer gave Hanlan until July IS to ac-
cept the challenge, and said that if the
Toronto sculler failed to respond up to that
date he would withdraw his money, and claim
the championship of America. This even
ing Mr.. GarnO had failed to hear from
Hanlan, and Teemer will now claim the
championship. There is difference of
opinion among sporting men as to the
merits of Hanlan and Teemer. Some stick
TO the belief that Hanlan, in good con-
ditiOn, is invincible, and others declare
Teemer is Hanlan's superior, and can de-
feat any one in the world at any rate.
Should these two men ever meet a close
race will be the result. Teemer's handicap
victories over Ross last summer prove that
he is very good oarsman.

Hadley's right ear. The two quickly
warmed up TO the work. Thompson taking
the initiative and Hadley retreating about
the ring, showing disposition TO drop to
his knees when i'm close quarters. The
round closed with Thompson having the
best of the fighting.
Round was a hot one. the blows fall
ing thick and fast, Thompson forcing the
fighting rapidly. Hadley was disposed to
go down and showed signs of weakness.
He took a good many blows, which if de-
livered straight from the shoulder would
have laid him out. At the close. Thomp-
son showed signs of fatigue, and the bridge
of his nose was seen TO be peeled.
Round 3-Hadley came up first, but
Thompson seemed to have recovered a lit
tie. 1t was punch and punch back, both
men becoming groggy on their feet. Had
ley landed several good ones, using his left
altogether, but Thompson made an effort
and was again the aggreSsor. When the
round ended Hadley'S mouth was bleeding.
Round 4-Thompson's efforts were tell
ing upon him. but he fought Hadley around
the ring and finally knocked him through
the ropes. The round was characterized by
bulldog fighting without particle of sci
ence. 1t was peg away, and hOnOrs were
easy. ThompSon's body showed number
of abraSions, and he was evidently eX-
hausted when the end of the round was an
nOunced.
Round 5-Hadley bobbed up serenely at
the call, while Thompson came up sOrely
distressed. 1t was clear that Hadley was
getting to the front. He was cool and
smiling. and had the fighting all to himself.
He began to swing the broken right hand,
getting in on Thompson's jaw. Thomp-
sons hands were down and he staggered
helplessly after his retreating opponent,
taking blow after blow on the face and
body, grunting al each resOunding punch,
but reeling up for another and making little
effort to get back at Hadley. Meryine'S eyes
were eXpreSsiOnlesS and he was unques-
tiOnably dazed. HadleY had not strength
enough left to knock the heavy man off his
feet. Thompson finally staggered forward
against Hadley, the two embraced each
other for a second, when Thompson seemed
to wake up. threw his arms around Hadley,
lifted him easily and fell with him and
upon him.
Round 6-This was the last. Hadley
came good naturedly forward, jabbed. was
seized and thrown easily. The perform
ance was repeated, Thompson raising him
as though he had been child and throwing
him over his head. Again was Hadley
thrown, when the referee raised his hand
and declared the fight won by Hadley on a
foul by Thompson.
SLUGGING NOTES.
Frank Ame and Hank Seeley acted as
timekeepers for yesterdays fight.
John s. Barnes and Charles Hadley will

FT. KEOGH, Mont, July 19.-News of

Crows, and that Stevens reports that there
is danger of serious trouble between the

headed by Black Wolf and White Bull.
The latter are attempting to force the Rose
bud Indians to live on Tongue river and
threaten to kill Agent Stevens fhe attempts
to interfere with their plans" The report
saws that the Indians are much excited
over the matter. The Rosebud Indians
positively refused to 90. There are now
4 IL camp with the Tongue river Indians about
lis Pine Ridge Indians under Crazy Head

he will die rather than go back to the Pine
Ridge agency. An exciting report has also

CheyenneS and the Indian Territory. Still
another report says that in an engagement
