SPORT IN THE ANTIPoDEs.

Preparations In Australia for the Kecep-
tion of John L. Sullivan.
SAN Francisco, August Australian
advices, per the steamer Alameda, state
that the match between Billy Murphy
and Critic, which was to have taken
place at Sydney, July 18th, was post
poned for week, as John l.. Sullivan
was expected to arrive about July 22d,
and he would be invited to attend. Con-
siderable preparation is being made
for Sullivan's arrival in the colony.
SULLIVAN ON A SPREE.
The Alameda passed the steamship
Mariposa at Auckland, N. H., June 18th.
John L. Sullivan and his theatrical
troupe were aboard the Mariposa on the
way to Sydney. 1t was reported that
Sullivan lndulged in liquor on his ar
rival at Auckland to such an extent that
Captain Haywards, of the Mariposa, was
constrained to order him confined to the
cabin.

seldom is it possible to impress upon even
a considerate man how much he might
spare his wife by little forethought.
MY son." said a mother to her twelve
year-old boy, who had a disagreeable habit
of strewing the floor with chips from his
whittling, 'there is very little you can do
to help about the work of the house. Your
province must be to save work. If you
had spread down a newspaper before you
began to whittle you might have spared
me the trouble of sweeping this corner of
the room"
The admonition was all very well in its
way, but it would do no harm to give the
boys a few practical illustrations of the
beauty of neatness. The youngster who
knows it is an inviolate rule that when he
makes what is popularity known as a
"mess," he will have to clear it up with
his own hands has learned valuable les
son. He is not likely to keep his bureau
drawers and his clothes closet in state of
confusion if he knows he will be sum-
moned from his play, as his sister would
be, to reduce chaos to order. The only way
to spare the coming generation of wives
the trials and tribulations in this line
which the women of this day, have to un-
dergo is to begin now to educate the boys
who will, in all probability, be husbands
twenty years hence.
True, there are needless girls who have
a trick of scattering their belongings far
and wide for the mother or servants to
gather up and put away, but time is apt to
cure the fault in the woman that was un-
pleasant in the girl. With her, after q
certain age, the instinct of orderliness
seems to assert itself, and by the time she
is called upon to preside over home of her
own she is often as great a stickler for
neatness as though to the manner born.
Then, too, she is apt to receive a natural
retribution for the sins of her youth by the
fate generally forced upon her in later life
of being a snapper up of the unconsidered
trifes" that the members of her household
in their turn have strewn about the home
of her later days. But no such poetic JUS
tice awaits the boy whose childish propen-
sity to make trouble is unchecked. On the
contrary. by an inversion of what seems
the proper law Of retribution, he is often
made the instrument to torment the tidy
soul of the neatest OF women. -

CATHOLIC TEETOTALERs.

Radical Resolutions Adopted at the
Washington Convention.
WASHINGTON, August Cat today g
meeting of the Catholic Total Abstin-
ence Union, the report of the commit
tee on resolutions was presented, where
in it was resolved that in
the effort to overcome the
evils of drink, on the lines laid
by the Baltimore Catholic congress,
there was no race, no creed, no color, no
national distinction, in this common
struggle in this common sorrow, but
also common hope against common
foe. Catholic women are appealed
to to initiate the Women's
Christian Temperance Union, and
cooperate with it. The resolutions de-
clare that sound public policy does not
seem to sanction the sale OF liquor at the
Chicago worlds fair, nor does it require
the existence of traffic privileged to
cover this fair land with breweries, dis
tilleries and saloons, which are wreck
ing homes, breaking hearts and grinding
down souls into the mire of wretched-
ness and woe.
The following resolutions were adopt
ed after lengthy debate: That we con-
slider it the duty of all temperance men
to support candidates for public office
who have honestly pledged them
selves to labor for the enforcement
of the Sunday laws for closing
the liquor saloons on that day
that we deem it the manifest duty of a
temperance man to discountenance any
candidate for public Office who declares
himself or is known to be committed to
support the liquor interests.
indianapolis was selected as the place
OF the next convention. Bishop Cotter
of Minnesota was reelected president.
