Paid the Reporter.

A reporter in Sherman, Mich, pub
lished an item announcing an approach
ing wedding, and the next day was &C
costed by the gentleman named as bride
groom, who gravely asked him on whose
authority he had made the announce
ment. Before the timid reporter could
reply the man CROPPED for his pistol
pocket, and the reporter thought his
nour of doom had come. Imagine his
joy when, instead of pistol, the man
produced pocketbook, from which he
extracted a five dollar bill. This he
thankfully gave to the reporter, saying
that the marriage announcement had
spared him the trouble of popping the
question,

Silk Weaving by Electricity.

An interesting trial has been made in
Germany with silk weavers' looms
worked by electricity. By cable of
100 feet in length, one horse power
electric shunt motor, with 100 volts and
four amperes, was put in motion, and
the transmission for the weavers' looms
was restricted by communication to
seventy-two revolutions. Two weavers'
looms were put in motion, the result be-
ing that the working by electricity was
more satisfactory than that by means Of
caloric engines or gas motors, and the
swinging masses, otherwise necessary
for the working on small scale, can be
dispensed with. The German papers
think the results named show that hs 'se
industry could easily be made to fou sh
oy the transmission of electric power,
and this all the more as electricity can
be transmitted equally we'll under any
temperature.-New York Telegram.

Aninteresting incident showing at how
great distance a conversation can be
carried on is related by Lieutenant Fos-
ter, of the third Parry arctic expedition.
in which he says thathe conversed with a
man across the harbor of Port Bowers, a
mile and a quarter away, and it has also
been asserted on good authority that at
Gibraltar the human voice has been dis

THE FLAG OF DISTRESS.

Over the Ocean of Being.
Till the wind fails.
Fast on their venturous voyage
Speed the white sailsl
But from the ships that have foundersd,
Laboring slow,
Hardly abreast of the pillows.
The rough RATS go.
Thereon the stranded from shipwrsek
Painfully lie,
Lead seems the water around them
Brazen the sky.
Cruel the ships that in safety
Steadfastly speed.
Cruelest souls that aboard them
Reck not nor heed.
Nayl for across the wan water
No appeal fails!
Nayi for the tiniest signals
Stay the white sailsl
some from the ship will come speeding
Eager to save,
Heirs to one glory of living,
Heirs to one grave.
But If the bearers of succor
Find not the track?
II to the hail of the helpers
Nothing come backf
What If the wash of the waters
Drown the heart throbr
II the wild winds in their courses
Stifle the sob?
Say, shall the true hearts of comrades
vainly be stirred2
Thou who so sorrowest, answer?

anybody out if it hits him right. He is a
crafty man and keeps his head we'll as a
rule. He has had a great deal of expert
ence. and he has no doubt learned to judge
men accurately.
And here is a point: When Kilraln saw
had not signed the articles for the coming
fight. He had signed one set of articles,
which had been destroyed. 1t was said
that Kilrain hesitated to sign the first artl-
cles, but after having seen Slavin box he
was ready and even eager to sign new arti-
cles, which were prepared without any
change from the others. This should en-
courage his friends. Kilrain has an awful
strong pair of hands-as good as l ever saw
on anybody.
Here are a couple of sample blows for
each man in his last fight to n finish. When
| Slavin fought Joe MoAuliffe. he did him up
| in the second round in this way: A half
| swinging loft land blow momentarily dazed
McAuliffe, and before he could recover
Slavin followed with the right-a straight
blow from the shoulder-which caught Nc
Auliffe on the cheek-bone and finished the
battle.
In kilrain's fight with Sullivan his two
best blows-and they were really terrible
runches-were both with the right. The
first was along about the sixth or
seventh round. Kilrain thought that Sulli-
van was going to lead, and he hit out with

hurt. The second v as delivered under very
| similar conditions, and caught Sullivan ovel
the left eye. They were both very hare
| blows, and fairly characteristic of kilrain's
methods. Kilrain is training we'll, and
there is no reason to suppose that he will
| not be in as good fighting trim as he ever
was in his life. The conditions of the fgh,
are in every way favorable to n good,
square trial of the mems fighting abilities,
and it should be decisive.

~tralia). in eight rounds. Then he went to
London and knocked out Bill Goode in five
rounds last October. His draw with
Jem Smith-when the outrageous conduct
of Smiths Brummagem heelers disgrsced
their favorite forever-is familiar to every
body. The fight lasted fourteen rounds
and WAS all in Slavin's favor. His last fight
WAS with Joe McAulife. Joe Was knocked
out in the second round.
This record | have run over rapidly in
order to bring out the main fact which it
disclones-tha Slavin is a hard fighter who
finishes his battles in short time.
A sight of him shows one that he is a
wonderfully good man. He is built like n

Whatever may be the result Of the final
Jackson-Corbett battle. Slavin looms up as
the next antagonist of the conqueror in the
eyes of every man who watches the course
of pugilistic events. Therefore,, this set-to
between Kilrain and Slavin takes on an
Importance which can hardly be overesti-
mated.
What do we know about Slavin already
before his battle with Kilrain. First, there
is his record. He made his debut in the
prize ring at Chasters Towers. Queensland,
in 1856, defeating Martin Power in thirteen
minutes. Then he beat Ton Burke, the
champion of Queensland, knocking him out
in four rounds He beat S%hanahan. of
olympia, in two rounds; S. Burke, OF Rock
hampton. in 10 seconds; Prof. Babbs i'll a
round and 4 half; BliRh. the Sydney heavy
weight, in one round; Tom Taylor, a pupil
of Peter Jackson, in two rounds; FoRarty
in three rounds; Mike Dooley in eight
rounds.
Then he fought a draw with Costello in a
battle lasting two hours and a quarter. AT
forwards, after many unsuccessful efforts to
get on another fight, he agreed to stop Cos
tello in six rounds and failed to do it.
| Then he was matched to fight Jackson. but
having hurt his wrist in the set-to with Cos
tello, he was forced to lose that honor-and
his deposit.
Then he beat Laing, the heavyweight
champion of New Zealand: and Jack Burke,
of London (who went from America to Aus

But it must be remembered that these were
awful whacks that would make any man
quail. It isn't, perhaps, likely that he will
be forced to encounter such hard lraps as
these two III a coming fight, though they
were straight blows from the shoulder ana
not swingers.
Kilrain is very clever in evading a blow.
There is nobody who can duck better than
Kilrain. He eau use his head in strictly

Every man who cares anything about the
doings of the pugilists is interested in
Frank p. Slavin. His record is one which
compels respect; his principal qualities
have made a favorable impression upon
Americans since he came over here; and he
ia entitled to the consideration which hos
pitality renders to every visitor. Further
more, the relation in which he stands to
puRilista just now emphasizes the import
anoe of every genuine disclosure regarding
his abilities.
The conditions in the prize ring are as
follows: the Jackson-C orbett match is yet
to be settled. The winner of that fight will
be the actual heavyweight champion of
America. Slavin has come over to fight
that man. Can he win?

An Effort Being Made to Force
Springer Out Of the Hot
Contest.
But the Illinoisan Announces
His Determination to Go
the Pace.
Figures Given by Candidates
and Friends--Balloting
May Be Long.

W WASHINGTON, Dec.4-The hotels are
thronged with members of congress,
and the speakership contest has reached
fever heat. RumOrS are no longer a
commodity in the political market, and
the facts and figures are now demanded
before any prediction receives credence.
Yielding to popular inquiry, all the can
didates and their friends have at las
given out figures upon which they base
their hopes of success, and these fig
ures have been supplemented by the
names OF their respective supporters.
The estimates show material dis
crepancies, but they are more nearly in
accord than any which have preceded
them. Upon the face of these estimates,
and upon the confession of candidates
themselves, one fact is evident, that no
nomination is possible on the first ballot
if all the aspirants are put in the field.
That this will be the case and that five
candidates will enter tomorow'S caucus
there is no longer good cause to doubt.
Palmer Is n Power.
The adherentS of both Mr.. Mills and
Mr.. Crisp agreed this morning that the
arrival and effective missionary work
of Senator Palmer last night has SO
strengthened the forces of Mr.. Springer
that the withdrawal of the Illinois man
is now indeed remote possibility.
