NEv YORK, Feb. 1O.-The trials of
Brother Talmagc on account OF his in
ability to raise money (outside Of his
personal resources) for rebuilding his
tabernacle are growing apace. The con-
tractor stopped work on the building
short time ago because his money was
not forthcoming, In spite Of the loan Of
SIPS, 900 by Russell Sage. Contractor T.
Wills agreed to put up the building for
$4,000 He has received only $65, 900.
Instead Of sec, 900, which was due him
last August, he received two notes
for $500 each and four for
$2,5 500 each, all due in four.
months. These notes, Contractor
Wills says, have not been paid. He
now brings suit against the church for
the balance due him on his contract,
and asks that his claim be made first
lien on the property, superseding even
Russell Ssge's mortgage. He will seek
TO have the unfinished tabernacle sold
to satisfy his claim.

RING NOTES.
The Attempt TO Bring Mccarthy aA1
Dixon Together Not Yet Abandoned.


New YORK, Feb. 1o.-Tbe Puritan
Athletic club, OF Long island City, will
presently be an institution Of the past.
The officials have discovered that they
cannot have boxing matches in the town
where their club house stands and they
have no intentions of going elsewhere
every time they want one, 80 they have
practically decided to give up the ghost
Jimmy Wakely to-day declared that Nc
Carthv and Dixon should yet meet.
In the first place he offered to be respon-
sible on McCarthy's behalf for So 900 for
that bet which had been made between
Joe Early and Tom O Rourke. The McCar-
thy money In this wager was furnished
by prominent turfman, who considered
the bet off when tho men failed to como
together on Feb. s. Wakeley said he
would bet that amount II Dixon would
agree to box In private with the same
gloves that were to have been used In
Long Island City, or he would bet -, 500
or 5000, as the Boston people preferred
that Mccarthy would defeat Dixon with
gloves, the fight to take place with but
ten men side at the rlng side.
He was willing TO go almost any
where, even to Boston, to have the
dispute settled. and said 80 in .
dispatch to O'Rourke. The reply to that
message will settle the question OF
''who's afraid?" The fighters will have
a few days to get back into the form
they were in on Feb. S. In case the
Boston people accept Mccarthy has ex-
pressed cheerful willingness to Wake
ly's proposition.

MIC sherir Il Rieht.

II trouble results at the Ashtabula ore
docks it will not be the fault of the
sheriff, whose appeal for military force
looks to the preservation OF the peace.
He may be assumed to know whether
he can or cannot get long without the
troops.
The sheriff is at the far end of a long
string of red tape, and by the time the
other end is reached the mischief may
be done. If troops had been sent to
the Conceivable coke region earlier,
when men on the ground thought they
should have been sent, the bloodshed
that followed might have been pre-
vented.
Men who intend to make trouble al
ways resent the presence Of the mill
tary, but they are not to be consulted,
and it is mercy to all concerned
to support the law with sufficient
lawful force to prevent riot, Poll
ttcians may fear to move, but they
get no stronger hold on the people by
their timidity.

Tbe eritish DIonarchy ON Trial.

It was not necessary to await the com.
ments OF the English newspapers to
know that in the proceedings before
Lord Chief Justice coleridge the British
monarchy was on trial. The sovereign
Of Great Britain is only fgurehead in
these days, but there is among British
subjects a feeling Of self-respect which
demands that the royal figurehead shall
at least be respectable.
In the person of Queen Victoria this
demand has been satisfied. II The
queen has not had an opportunity to be
great she has been the embodiment of a
pure life, striking contrast 70 other
rulers Of her house. Not only has her
yirtuous example led the British people
tolook for better things in their soyer-
eigns, but since the Georges reigned the
world has moved, and under no mon
archy has the idea Of free government
made greater strides.
Great Britain to-day is a monarchy
only in name and outward form. The
real thing has passed away. Very little
will he required to wipe out all that re-
mains. That the British press is free
enough and bold enough to suggest the
possibility that yictoria's son may
never be king, is a reminder that the
institution of royalty has no great hold
on the people Of the kingdom.
The personality OF the heir apparent
may easily serve to present to the world
the engrossing spectacle of British roy
atty as q dissolving view. Albert Ed
wards moral lapses may lose to his
house all that generations of blind luck
have brought it.
