something about Mrs. Columbus
Probably but few people nowadays
ever knew there was such q woman as
Mrs. Christopher Columbus! I
occurs to Inc as particularly singula,
that III this day, especially whei
women are being accorded SO much
of prominence and largely by the
reason Of their own enterprise, too
that upon this occasion the memory
Of Mrs. Christopher Columbus is per
mitted to be SO entirely out Of it in
stead Of in it
Il have been reading up on the sub
ject lately and find that Mrs Colum-
bus was probably more deserving Of a
share Of the credit OF Mr. Columbus
success than have been most Of the
unknown wives OF well known men.
''Columbus was married in 147O, or
thcrcabouts to Miss Palestrello. Of
Lisbon whose father had distinguish
ed himself as a navigator. A part OF
Miss Palestrello's marriage dover was

From childhood she had displayed
wonderful enthusiasm Oh the subject.

speculative and advonturesOme ideas

known as brainy, brilliant woman,
who WAS constantly Urging her hus-
band on in the path which finally
brought him to the wOnderous goal
with which we are so familiar. While
a girl Mss Palsetrello made a number
Of hazardous voyages with her father
in unfamiliar waters. aai later made
many geographical drawings, several
of which were used with great profit
by Columbus. when he had won her
for his wife and SCI ont upon his more
important wandering on the great
deep.
There is probably 10 picture Of

FOR HIS HEALTH.

He came TO Texas for his health.
Also, for that same reason he went
away.
The way of it was this: When the
Wrctch-hiS name was Reginald Cros-
waite, but we called him Wretch for
short-left college somewhere in the
du~ky East his family decided that
hard study had wrought havoc with
the poor fellows health. and forthwith
sent hIm TO try suu-cure as only Texas
furnishes it. As Il matter of fact. he
had studied nothing more serious than
a beautiful assortment of Bohn's cribs
His ill-heaith was due 10 causes not
connected with the intended routine OF
college life.
SO the peaceful little community of
JimvilIe, Tex. awokc one day to the
consciousness OF the fact that it har-
bored Reginald Croswaite. Esq, gor-
geous in store clothes and an English
accent. Old man Bowman, who in
some remote and ineXplicablc way was
related TO the Wretch. aud IN whose
house the latter stayed, express

And that was perhaps the feeling of
aii uf us there in Jimviile. We were
plain folk. and Texas seemed very fair
to Us. And for the things the Wretch
Dragged to Us OF sometimes In his con-
descending way-well. The East was
welcome 10 them. Dante and Del
sarte might be necessary adiunctg in
that sheltered life down cast;' in
Texas they are out of place. There
was tragedy enough in our daily lives,
and any cowboy viii tell you that rid

than all the cslhetic professors in the
world.
1t was winter-by the calendar and
northern wealher-w hon the Wretch
came to us As the spring came on we
thought surely the glamOr of 1t wOnld

more glorious than Texas spring.

mesquite trees shoot oct their slender.

the soft. gentle balm OF the south
breeze induces feeling of absolute
rest-the person who can be in Texas
then and not feel something Of The joy
of living where spring is so glorious Is
not a person fit for decent society.
But the Wretch never opened ms

only turned his nose a1d his trousers

IN SPORTING CIRCLES.
The Program for Tomorrow Nights
Amateur Tournament.
THE BURN NS-BAKER MATCH.
what Tim Murnane Thinks OF the Plan
for New England League-Current
Sporting and Athletic Gossip.

The preliminaries in the amateur box
ing tournament Of the Metropole Club
were success and portepd good sport
when IL comes to the finals tomorrow
night. There was good boxing in all the
classes and in some the men were so
evenly matched that it required an extra
round TO decide the winner. In the los
class Tom Cooney got the decision over
Smithers. n novice who will be heard
from probably later on, when he has be-
come more accustomed TO boxing in pub
lie. He made great showing and many
thought should have got ihe decision
which the judges gave Cooney, because
he did most of the leading.
In the same class young Gleason bean
Talbot handily, but thought he was not in
proper condition to 20 on second time
in the same night, aud so the semi-final
bout went to Cooney by default. The lat
ter had great trouble in getting TO weight
and in the event of his not being able TO
stay at the limit, 107 pounds, young Glea-
son will take his place in the finals. OF
the other classes the best bout was between
Flattley of Pawtucket and Edwards of
this city. 1t was rugged setto from start
TO finish and required an extra round of
two minutes for the judges to decide Ed
wards n winner.
The program for tomorrow night is as
follows: bantam, l05 pounds, Cooney and
Heffron of Boston; feather, ll5 pounds;
1eatner, 10 pounds. GIN Gordon and Nc
Loughlin, both of this city; special, 125
pounds, Bouchy of this city and Moriarty
Of Lowell, lightweight, l35 pounds, Joe
Eaton and Brennan; welterweght, las
pounds, Edwards and Hands; middle
weight, 15s pounds, +. S. Cane of this city
and L. j. Kelly of Boston; special, 135
p unds, Slavin of East Providence end
Wilson of Boston; special, 1875 pound,
Barnett of this city and Walcott of Bos-
ton, both colored; heavyweight, special,
Fred Scott. champion of New York State,
This makes nine bouts altogether,
which will be sport enough for Que night
for any man. All the bouts will be of
three rounds duration, the first two of
three minutes each and the third of four
minutes, with the privilege of a fourth
round of two minutes.
On Wednesday night there will be a
rattling go at the Metropole club when
Bobby Burns will try TO stop Marcellus
Baker i'm ten rounds. The latter is one Of
the oldest men in the business, but is as
clever as ever and declares that in at
tempting 10 stop him in ten rounds
Burns has taken the biggest contract on
his hands that he ever had. Besides this
there will be four round bouts between
local boxers. L. w. y.

HARMONY? OIL.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE /.

1t was a noticeable fact Mayor Pond
was absent from the conclaye of the
Democratic chieftains in Providence,
Saturday, but Heffernan was there.
Everyone la this city is laughing at the
predicament i'm which the Democratic
managers have placed themselves in re-
gard To the securing of halls for their
rallies. The facts OF the case are these:
the Harris hall has been recently reno
waited In thorough artistic manner and
the trustees recently voted not TO let IL 20
any political rally during this campaign
on account of the unseemly scenes, which
sometime occurs at these rallies.
In regard to the other two halls the FIRE.
mond Club have secured Music Hall for
every open date and they desire TO hold a
series of rallies.
The Republican managers are expecting
that Messrs. Read and Mckinley will visit
Woonsocket during this campaign, and
desire TO have the largest hall in the city,
and be assured of every open date until
April 6, SO they have reserved the Opera
House.
The Democrats would have been offered
the use of the Opera House for any open
date which have not been filled for a Re
publican rally, il the action Of several OF
their leaders which was discourteous and
outrageous had not made il undesirable
to extend any fayors to them.
