Cleveland. I1d.anapol and Washing
ton are the cities which will in al prob
ability be given up entirely TO Brother
hood clubs next year.
VIII Jake Kilrain spar Sullivan be-
fore the California Athletic Club? That
IS the question which is agitating the
pugulists just now. Sullivan says he
would like to spar somebody, he dOesn I
care who. for Sl2 600 purse. which
the club has promised to offer. in case
some one can be found who has nerve
enough TO face the champion. The Sui
livan folks in this city say that Kill
rain 5 annOuncement-tbs 1t would be
folly to agree to a match before the
Louisiana trouble is settled-is mere
subterfuge, only given out by him as an
excuse TO evade match. John l..
would prefer meeting Kilrain. but he
has no objection TO Mr.. Jem Smith, of
England. John offers TO send Smith
81 800 with which to reach New York,
and then give him another Il 900 to pay
car far to San Francieco. Besides this
liberal offer. the loser Of the match
would receive enough money out of
the purse witho which TO balm his
wounded body and spirit. The same
offer is also open to any other foreigner.
1t appears to be questionable matter
as TO who will enter the approaching
international billiard Journeys. Will
liam Sexton, the Green Mountain boy. is
badly run down. and is said TO be in
very poor trim for the struggle. On
81 l. h.,ptn.uu -.
he has very little time in which
to practice, and in the event OF
two Journeys, ne would not make
very good showing in the New York
one. As for Jake Schaefor. 1t appears
to be exceedingly doubtful whether he
will enter the list as competitor. SIos-
son has suggested a compromise In
order to secure Schaefer's participation
in the Journeys The suggestion is to
hold one Of the Journeys IN Chicago
after the style of handicap game that
Schaefer prefers. II Schaefer refuses
to enter, Chicago Will have no tourna
ment.
FASHIONS FANCIEs.
The arbiters of fashion have decided
that cloth suits trimmed with fur are to
have great run this winter.
They have also revived the Grecian
headbands, in gold. silver, amber, and
tortoise shell, which were fashionable
a quarter of century ago.
Some Of the new bOnuets have been
facetlously described as being fiat as a

mink, come next; but the majority |
contents itself with black Persian lamb |
and Astrakan, and even with monkey |
skins. The piettiest thing in the new
shapes is called the Queen Anne, and is

Goats and wraps are more resplen-
dent than ever. A cloak for a bride is

white and gold brOcade. opening at the

white regence silk. Full sleeves of this
plain white are pulled into deep cuff
OF closely curled white ostrich feathers.
