what a Good Authority Says About
the Coming Contest.
New YoRK, April 23.-''M Macon McGor-
mick, +" the well known sporting writer Of
this city, says in letter to the Morning
Advertiser:
"If Sullivan and Corbett meet, and [ be-
Eeve they will, it will be in the ring of the
Olympic Club Corbett will not listen to
any change of venue He has nothing
against the new Coney Island Athletic
Club, but he says: Tt is the ambition of
my life to meet John l.. Sullivan in the
ring. We all know that the Olympic Club
can and will pull off any match that it
undertakes. This being the case, there is
no use III attempting to pull Off our match
anywhere else. Sullivan has as many
friends in New Orleans as have, and he
knows, as | do, that the Olympic Club will
not favor either Of us. Each man will get
fair play, and no man can ask any more.
Until was matched with Sullivan I never
said that thought that could defeat him;
but now do say it, for if l did not think
that could beat him / would never have
made the match with him [ sincerely
hope he will get in the very pink Of con-
d1t1on. l DON'T want him to have want of
condition to offer as an excuse for his de-
feat. 1t will not be my fault if | do not
toe the scratch as fine as fiddle. and I
want him to be Just as well as I will be-.
Then the victor may feel proud Of his
victory Sulllyan's season will soon be
over, and then he will have to look up a
trainer With all due Difference to his
great powers, I think John had better train
very seriously this time. He has had two
or three very narrow escapes from defeat
in his time, and each time want of condi-
ton was responsible. Take a timely tip
John, and take no more chances"

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, the great organ

niless plow boy, and by his indomitable
will ne has worked his way up SO as to sell
SO far, nearly 100000 of Beatty's organs
ana az piano., since 1870. Nothing seems to
would have wrecked any ordinary man for
ever, he turns to an advertisement and

world. We are informed that during the

more Of his make, that means business
Of $40, O,O0o, 900 if we average them at 500

From an Exchange.


According to the reco ords January
and February, 1916, the year with
out summer, were warm and pring-
like. March was cold and stormy.
Vegetation had gotten well along in
April whea real winter set in. Sleet
and snow fell on seventeen different
days in May. In June there was
either frost or snow every night but
three. The snow was five inches
deep for several days in succession
in the interior of New York, and
from ten inches to three feet in Ver-
mont and Maine. July was cold
and frosty ice formed as thick as
window panes in every one of the
New England states. August was
still worse; ice formed nearly an
inch in thickness and killed nearly
every green thing in the United
States and in Europe. In the
spring of 1917 corn which had been
kept over from the crop of 1916 sold
for from S. to SO a bushel, the
buyers purchasing for seed.

Grover Cleveland .


| believe that among our people
the ideas which endure, and which
inspire warm attachment and de-
votion, are those having some ele-
ments which appeal to the moral
sense. When men are satisfied that
a principle is morally right, they be-
come its adherents for all time.
There is sometimes a discouraging
distance between what our fellow
eountrymen believe and what they
do in such case; but their action
in accordance with their belief may
always be confidently expected in
good time. A government for the
people is right and by the people is
everlasting. AS surely as this is
true, so surely is it true that party
principles which advocate the abso-
lutte equality of American manhood
and an equal participation by all
the people in the management of
their government and in the benefit
and protection which it affords are
also right. Here is common ground
where the best educated thought and
reason may meet the most impulsive
and instructive Americanism. 1t is
right that every man should enjoy
the result of his labor to the fullest
extent consistent with his member
ship in civilized community. 1t is
right that our government should be
but the instrument of the people S
will, and that it's cost should be
limited within the lines of strict
economy. 1t is right that the in
fuence of the government should be
known in every humble home as the
guardian of frugal comfort and con-
tent and a defense against unjust
exactions and the unearned tribute
persistently coveted by the selfish
and designing. 1t is right that eff
cheney and honesty in public service
should not be sacrificed to partisan
greed, and it is right that the suf-
frage of our people should be pure
and free.
The belief in these propositions,
as moral truths, is nearly universal
among our countrymen. We are
mistaken if we suppose the time is
distant when the clouds of selfish
ness and perversion will be dispelled
and their conscientious belief will
become the chief motive force in the
political action of the people.

Gates: "l'll bet you can't put a

in the front of your pantaloons and

Jolly fellows in Turner, Jackson &
Co. Is store when the assertion was
made and Mr.. Turner said he could
accomplish the feat for the nickel.
."All right" said the trick-player.
The funnel was placed in the front
of his pants and Mr.. Turner threw
his head away back for the nickel to
be placed on his forehead. At this
moment a dipper full Of cold ice
water went down the funnel and in
a second the large drops of perspira-
ton on the councilman's brow were
transformed into icicles.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
SNAKE BITTEN.
Cook Groves Dangerously Bitten by a
Rattle Snake.

Wednesday June 29, Cook Groves,
who lives southwest of Mexico, was
bitten by a rattle snake. He was
getting corn out Of the crib when a
snake nailed him between the
fingers, making a terrible wound.
Cook started to the house, but be-
fore he got there was blind and
staggering. He told his wife what
was the matter and called for some
whisky, which is said to be the best
antidote. He drank about quart
and sent to town after some more.
His hand and arm swelled up ter
ribly, but the doctors think he will
recover. He sucked the wound to
draw the poison from it as much as
possible. He also tied a string
around his arm to keep the blood
down. Young Groves is one of our
most prosperous and active young
farmers and stock raisers. We
trust the wound will not prove
dangerous,
