POOLE PUT PARSONS OUT
Billy Poole,of Tacoma, Won the Glove Con-
 test Last Night.

A very pretty glove contest was decided at the West End Athletic Club last night before a crowd Of about 200 persons. The principals were Billy Poole, of Tacoma, Wash, and Ike Parsons, of Memphis. Poole was seconded by Paddy Smith, of Denver, and Joe Drew, champion bantam of Arkan- sas Jack Davis, of Memphis, and Happy Jack, of Little Rock, looked after Parsons.
 Parsons had a great advantage over Poole in height, reach and weight, but was no match for the Tacoma boy in science.
 Parsons is tall, lean and slender and has long arms. He entered the ring fresh from the barber shop, with his hair cut pompadour and looked very athletic. Poole is short. chunky and very compactly butt. Both men seemed disposed to take their time and very little was done in either the first or second round Parsons had a strictly business expression on his face, and in the third round concluded to press matters. He made an intellectual lead and was knocked down, Poole falling on top of him.
 Poole made several leads in the fourth landing on Ike's ribs once or twice. Parsons was knocked down just before the round closed.
 Not great deal of work was done up to the thirteenth round, as the men clinched at every opportunity Parson lead several times but was generally stopped by Poole. Par sons was out of humor, while Poole pranced around the ring as nimble US a kitten, smiling at his antagonist. In the thirteenth round Poole caught Parsons on the ribs with his right and quickly followed up his adyant- age landing on the chin. Parsons went down and took his full time Of ten seconds. He arose but was ex- hausted and it only required q slight shove to put him down again. when he was counted out.
 Poole was as fresh as a lark and came out of the bout without a scratch Parsons nose was bleed- ing, but he was otherwise uniniured. The contest was for purse and the gate receipts, A large number of people came up from Pine Bluff to witness it. Joe Drew and "Cyclone' Ferris Parks spared three very clever rounds as a curtain raiser to the evenings entertainments Rock Gazette

Decking the Beds of Sleeping Innocents
 with White Clover.
 John Brown was the grave digger of Scotch parish. He had his own ways like most tScotchmen-and one of them was to sow the graves of little children with white clover. The new minister of the parish had noticed Johns loving care of children's graves, and one day came upon him trimming the small rest ing place of child buried n few days before. The conversation which fol- lowed is reported in volume of Scotch anecdotes.
 "John," said the minister, "why are you so particular in dressing and keep ing the graves of children?'
 'Of such is tine kingdom of Heaven, :" answered John, looking up at the sky.
 'And on this account you tend them with so much care?' remarked the min ister, slowly, as if musing on Johns an- swer.
 Surely, sir" said the grave digger, pausing in his work, 'I canna make overbraw the bed coverin' of little in nocent sleeper that is waiting here till it's Gods time to wauken it, and cover it with the white robe. When sic gran deur is awaitin' it yonder, it's fit it should be decked out here. think that He will like to see the white clover sheet spread above it; dae ye no think sac tae, sir?"-Youth's Companion.

A GREAT MINING CENTER.

The recent mineral developments at both the east and west end of the valley mean much for PhDnix and the entire valley. Each days report of the out look in the Superstition mountains has been more glowing than that of the day before and people were at loss only to know how much of them were true. Disinterested prospectors who have come down from the mountains say that all the reports are true, that the only question is as to the extent of the ore which they believe to be sufficient to make the largest gold camp in the United States. Further development is necessary to assure this but the de- velopment is going on rapidly, the ex- citement is becoming more intense and all signs which precede great strikes are prevalent.
 At the other end of the valley at the base of the Eagle Tail mountains there is reason to believe that the greatest deposit of rnarvelously rich ore in ex- istence has been discovered. It will require no extensive development to show this, as it is said that nearly five acres of it lie exposed. Reliable assays show it to contain gold in quantities ranging from $200 to $1 ,5O0 and beside to contain percentage of copper enough of itself to insure fabulous for. tunes.
 It is believed that these claims will prove to be the richest in the world and there is no reason to disbelieve it except that it appears to be phenomenal and without precedent, but 80 was the Comstock in it's day.
 At any rate enough is now known to warrant us in believing that the mining center of the richest mineral territory of similar size on the globe has been moved to within few miles of Phoenix which will become the entrepot of sup plies, the depot of products and the headquarters of the largest body of mining operatives in the world.
 If this should be so and we are san. guine that it will be so, the position of Phoenix will be indeed enviable. AL ready the center of an unrivalled agri- cultural region, equal in extent to an eastern state; every acre of ground cap. able of cultivation and ada pted to the growth of any kind of grass, grain, vegetable or fruit which may be pro- duced anywhere in the United States and in quantities which can be pro- duced no where else, there seems to be nothing further to be desired to fill the measure of prosperity. This is not an imaginative picture in which lurid colors predominate, but . photograph Of conditions which all can see.

 II have just eyperimented with set ting hen and have found way in breaking them of the habit, in the win ter at least. I haven't patented my idea; those who wish to try it can do so and welcome. I made half q dozen snowballs and soaked them in water In the morning they were solid ice. shaped them as near like an egg as pos sible and then placed them under the setting hen. She smiled.
 "I stood by and watched her. She cuddled the ice eggs under her and chuckled softly to them. In about ten minutes she appeared to get uneasy She arose and scratched the darlings together and shook herself, then, evil dently satisfied, settled down again Soon she got up once more, this time with eviGcnt concern: something was wrong, surely; perhaps the weather was getting cold. She felt wet and chilly, but with great perseverance she sat down agaln and again got up, this time for good. She walked out of the box and then turned and looked in, but she had had enough.
 "I told friend of mine this new idea. My friend, being large poultry man, immediately set his four boys to work making snowballs "-Boston Journal

LAST NIGHT the Attic young ladies of

LAST NIGHT the Attic young ladies of Vassar, presented the "Antigone." They have long been engaged in the study of the Greek lines and were no doubt we'll understood by close students of Sopbocles. To many though, the play must have been a spectacular affair with little moremean- ing than the average nineteenth century drama. With respect to the costumes
 we learn that female characters wore the peplus garment which at first glance might be taken for the chiton which if it fit more closely might in turn be taken for the Mother Hubbard.
