doubted that Liberal ministry and par

ABOUT AMATEUR SPORT.
A Crank on Runners Makes a Few
Remarks.

The following communication has
been received at this Office:
Los ANGELES. March 9th, 1892.
Sporting Editor Los Angeles HERALD:
In reading yesterdays sporting news
l was pleased to see you once more with
the amateurs. think we have had
enough professional sport this winter,
and it is about time the amateurs had a
day. By the way, things are shaping
themselves, and ii looks as though the
directors of the Los Angeles Athletic
club begrudged the poor amateur even
that small drop of consolation. If Deco.
ration day is to be given up to baseball,
what day are we to have, Mr.. Director? I.
Keep at them until we get the
track, then the question as to who
is champion at the hundred, or the
quarter, can easily be solved.
Your suggestion as to handicapping is
a good one, but think should be con-
fined to club events only, where the
Handicapped would have o much
better chance of getting a line
on the contestants. The hundred,
quarter, half and mile could be
open events, and I think, my dear fell
low, that you would find plenty of entries
in the quarter against even such speedy
quarter-miler as Charley Howard. Gard,
BENJAMIN, McAleer, Howard and prob
ably Ward would be very likely to enter
such race. l have heard two Of the
above named athletes express them
selves as being confident of their ability
to defeat Howard at the quarter, and
where they are all like Barkis, "willin',
there should be no trouble in arranging
such race.
Let each contestant deposit $25 or $50
with the president of the Los Angeles
Athletic club, to be used to purchase
suitable prize for the winner. That
would settle the question as to who ls
the champion quarter-miler of Southern
California. This is only friendly sug-
gestion, Mr.. Editor, to help settle the
question. I was an interested spectator
at the last field day games, and was de-
lighted with the performances of the
above athletes and would 60 long way
to see such a race. Hoping that the
boys may soon get together, I remain,
yours truly, A CRANK ON SPRINrERs.

like man, as one would expect who
knows how much real grit, obstinacy
and will lie underneath his superficial
tiles. Then he insisted that he should
get possession Of the birch which had
been the instrument of his punishment.
There is, it seems, or there was, tradi-
tion at Eton that the culprit had a right
to his birch, and after some argumenta-
,tion, in which Labby defended his point
with characteristic tenacity and re-
source, the birch was handed over to
him.
In Truth, about two years ago, Labby
had good deal to say about school disci-
pline, and mentioned that in his day at
Elton the extreme punishment was a
birching, consisting of from four to ten
cuts. II ought to know something

An odd rellow,s odd Suit.

John Geiger, q member of Court Val
ley Forge, No. 169, Independent Order
of Odd Fellows, has three mended places
in the bone of one of his legs, and, Incl
dentally, the second degree in that Sc
cret organization. Mr.. Geigers leg was
broken in taking the second step, and
he now asks of the Cook county court of
chancery that he be paid $25, 900 dam
ages, or at the rate of s., 1888 and the odd
cents for each fracture.
1t was about three months ago that
Mr.. Geiger went into the lodge, with
great expectations of hearing something
drop. He had nerved himself for al
most anything except hospital ambu-
lance, determined to take the second de-
gree or fall through the skylight.
According to his allegations IN the
bill, Officers James Donohue, John
Riordan, John Nolan and others COM
PEELED him, in spite of his protests, tc
engage in mock war, in which blood
threatened to flow in lurid streams at
any moment. He was compelled to toy
with bright, sharp swords, and as last
measurement of his courage he was
called upon to jump into a boiling,
seething lake of fire.
1t was real fire, of course-that is, not
English fire. 1t had been built in the
Greek language as it were, .and Geiger
shut both eyes and jumped.
The dull thud occurred IL seconds
later. Geiger went home with second
degree in the patrol wagon. He suf-
+1,0 off lie Of
and splints for several weeks, while
the lodge paid the bills, At the end
of that time he compromised on 5000
damages in installments of ten dollars
each. After the second installment the
lodge suspended payment. Now Geiger
claims to be injured for life, and in
asking for $4,000 damages will make
over all right and title TO a second de-
gree on payment of the cash.-Chicago

Two young girls caused quite breeze
of excitement in Broadway, near Prince

employed in the packing department of
IL wholesale notions house in that vicin-

and went serenely to his home after

iron roller shutters. When the girls
found that they were locked in they be-

able to find any way of communicating
with the outside world, they sat down
and cried like "the babes in the wood"
Suddenly an idea developed in the
brain of one of the girls. She ran into
the Office on the main floor and pulled

the other end of the 'alarm" was prompt

What % Wannigan Is.

A wannigan is flat bottomed boat,
on which house is built, according to
the financial ability of the owner, and
many Of those on the west were we'll
built and very comfortable and costly
furnished. Some stand high above the
river at its ordinary stage, and in cases
of high water are supposed to float.
Others were built below the bank near
the waters edge and raised several feet
by means of blocks and posts. With the
water very near the floors no danger
was apprehended by the occupants, but
the current brought down logs and
debris.
Recently the frail underpinnings on
one side of some half dozen wannigans
were knocked out, and they ignomin-
iously toppled over in the water, piling
furniture, crockery and occupants in
confusion. Then the water came in and
added to the work OF destruction. The
wannigans might have foated on an
even keel, but they were never built to
be launched with only half the ways
knocked out.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.

Mexican Women Are Charming, but Their
Lovers Are UnpleasantIy Jealous
A theatrical man was relating some OF
his experiences in the Office of the Sew
enth Avenue hotel yesterday, and he
told story of a narrow escape he had
in the west.
81 was ahead of an opera company
which was playing on the Pacific coast
few years ago." said he, land one day
struck town on the Mexican border
where l came near remaining pelma-
nently, as after events showed. There
was q Mexican ball being held that even
ing, and in company with the local man
ager and q party of young fellows |
dropped in to see the fun.
81 had heard great deal Of the beauty
and manners Of Mexican women and
was curious to get peep at Greaser So
ciety The dance was in full blast when
we arrived, and we had not been there
long until we decided to take hand in
the fun. A pretty little senorita, with
great lustrous eyes that would make u
man mad if he looked at them too long,
attracted my attention, and without the
formality of an introduction l asked her
for dance. She accepted, and we
whirled through waltz, which she
seemed to enjoy as much as |.
''She was as light and graceful as she
was handsome, and when | seated her I
took occasion to engage another Dance
which was followed by another. 1t was
case of smitten, l confess, but one of
my friends interrupted my dream by
taking me to one side and saying: See
here; do you want to get us all into
trouble? If you don't you had better
take walk out of this place right away
while you're in good health asked
him to explain, and he did so. do you
see that Greaser over there? Well, he's
the lover of that girl you've been firt-
ing with, and he's been watching you
with bad eye. There's going to be
trouble here soon if we don't get out
Nonsense, replied, what do care
for the whole gang of yellow skinned
dogs? I've got this dance engaged with
my little charmer and I'm going to have
it, As the music struck up the senorita
and / started out, but we had only
danced few measures when the circus
began. Bang! went a revolver shot and
a volley followed. The lights went out,
my partner screamed and left me, and
matters got very interesting in a very
short space of time. At the first shot
dropped to the floor, and as the crowd
was in the middle of the room had lit
tie trouble in cropping my way TO the
wall and finding the door.
"When got on the outside l found
my friends, who had made their escape
when they saw what was coming, and
they were greatly surprised to find me
with a whole skin. These Greasers
have their way of doing things, remark
ed the local manager, and l agreed with
him. ."-Pittsburg Post.
