Then it was found that the gloves bought
for jackson were too small Others had to
be substituted. AT 1;20 the men shook
hands again and squared Off for the first
round. In this jackson did the leading, the
fighting being fast and furious Each man
was apparently bent ON knocking the other
out as quickly as possible. Smiths blows
were delivered on the body, but Jackson
gave him no rest, following him all over the
ring. Both indulged slightly in hugging,

Smiths wicked Foul
In the beginning OF the second round Jack
son did some powerful hitting, Smith scarce
ly making a single return. He hugged the
ropes with the right, trying at times to get
in his left Finally he closed, and, back
heeling jackson, he threw him. The latter's
seconds claimed a foul, as wrestling and hug
ging the ropes were expressly forbidden by
the articles of agreement. After silence was
restored the referee awarded the fight to
jackson amid some groans which were al
most drowned in the loud cheers that fol-
lowed. Smith glared like savage bull

fists. Lucky for him he was restrained, for
Jackson was a trife angry, too, aud would
probably have given him "A sound thrashing.

TO accept The verdict of the referee was
heartily approved by the club and also, to @
great extent, by Smiths friends. The

He Did Not Know His Audience.

The young professor of magic stood
before his audience outwardly calm, but
his heart was beating wildly. He was
about to perform his greatest, most be-
wildering feat of legedermain.
The excitement of the prestidigitator
had communicated itself to his auditors.
In breathless expectation they awaited
his next movement. He stood with one
hand resting on the cover of mysteri-
Gus cylinder, and the other extended to-
ward the audience.

Wolverines Are Ugly Customers

Few Washington people know
what q wolverine is. They know
that Michigan is called the Wolver-
ines state and that Michigan people
are called Wolverines. But they have
little or no idea why the state was so
named or what the nickname means.
The state is named after an animal
that used to infest, and still fire.
quents, the dense woods in the north
ern part of the state as well as in the
woods of northern Wisconsin and
Canada. This animal is the wolve-
rine, or, as the varieties of him found
in northern European countries are
called, theglutton. They are savage
beasts, these wolverines are, and
they play sad havoc with cattle of
the Michigan farmers. They are
like a cross between a wolf and bear.
The tail and the temper resemble
those of wolf, but in strength and
size and savageness they much re-
semble a bear. They are less clumsy
than bears, though, and they can
climb trees. Many hunter has
walked under n tree up in Michigan
without looking for a wolverine
the tree first, and the wolverine in
dropped down on him from one of
the lower limbs, and before the next
morning had eaten him up, bnckskin
breeches and oil, even to the heels OF
his hunting boots. They are ugly
looking beasts, the only pretty thing
about them being their bushy tail, q
foot or so long. Their claws are
longer and sharper than bears,
and their teeth just as sharp.
Altogether the animal is a very
unpleasant sort of one to see outside
of cage. They are SO savage and
SO wary and suspicious that it is
almost impossible to catch them
alive, and SO they don't have them
in circuses and geological gardens,
and nest people don't know what
they are. They are so savage that
hunters don't care to hunt them, and
SO the wolverine has things about
his own way where he lives. Wash

Lost n Decent Burial

A good story is told on promi-
nent city undertaken and the way he
lost pay for an exceptionally fine
lob of work in his line.
A man had been found drowned.
and on the body being taken in charge
by the authorities a young man
came and identified the corpse as
that of his father. The undertaken
was called to attend to the body, land
took it to his morgue. AS the Dung
man appeared to be quite wealthy
and expressed a willingness to pay
we'll for attentions given the deceased,
the grim attendant upon the dead
made it a point to fix the body in
the most modern methods of under
taking. After he had placed the
corpse in the casket he thought it
would be we'll to call in the young
man and give him a look at the face
of the deceased and hear him admire
the mastery manner in which the
dead was laid out. The young man
came and the face was exposed to
his fond gaze. just then the under
jaw of the corpse dropped down and
the upper pair of a set of false teeth
tell out.
,"Herel" remarked the young man,
with sudden energy, "that is not my
fathers body!"
"Wha-, whatp' stammered the
undertaken.
81 say that is not my fathers
corpse, for father never wore false
teethl''
"Well, what are you going to do
about it,"
zone thing I'm not going to do,
and that is pay for the preparation
of this strangers body for the
burial"
well, say! continued the under
taker, chow am I going to come out
ahead in this transaction"
ooh, that's none of my affairs,
answered the young man, and he de-
parted forthwith.
After the young man had departed
the undertaken gazed for a moment
on the face of the dead, and then
grabbed the innocent corpse by the
hair, pulling it out of the coffin, &C
companying the act by the following
language:
"Come out of there, you unbecom-
ing, ungrateful, condemned idiot
come out of therel If you had only
kept your mouth shut you could
have had a decent burial. Come out,
