war here is getting warmer and warmer.
To-day it eliminated in an alteration on
King street between Oscar Prause. a one
armed ex-cOnfederate soldier, and Con-

band liquor. Prause, who was a by
stander, spoke to the driver, and told him
he could drive on, as the constable had
no right to stop him. Constable Gaillard
ordered Prause off, and the latter cursed
him, whereupon Gaillard used his walk

him pretty severely. There were no ar

CoRBETT MAY BE ARRESTED.
The Opponents of the Fight May Try
to Jail Him at Jacksonville.

Jacksonville, Fla, Dec. 12.-The latest
rumor in sporting circles in this city is to
the effect that as soon as j. J. COrbett s.
Co, arrive here on Thursday he will be ar
rested aud put in Jail for violating, as the
anti-fght people say. the state law in
coming here after having previously ar
ranged for a fight within the state bound
aries.
OF course, the champion of America
will not be allowed to languish in Jail,
but he will be promptly taken out on
writ of haDeas corpus and carried before
Judge Call, who will try the case. If the
case goes against Corbett here, an appeal
will be taken TO the supreme court.
The advocates of the boxing match are
very sanguine that all obstacles will be
overcome, for they say they have the
opinion of the best lawyers in the state
that the match between COrbett and
Mitchell, as it viii take place, Is not in
violation of the state law.

A Snake Laboratory Founded.

An enlightened Bengali, Babu Govind
Chandra Laha, has contributed $1,000
rupees toward the expenses of the pro-
posed snake laboratory at Calcutta. We
may expect, therefore, that the institu-
ton will soon be in full working order.
Two main lines Of research will be fol-
lowed in the laboratory. So called cures
for snake bites will be tested under
strictly scientific conditions, and the
properties Of the snake poison as such
will be investigated. The laboratory will
be the only institution of its kind in the
world, and the committee of the Cal
cutta geological gardens, which has
taken the matter in hand, expects that
it will be largely resorted to by the sci
entific inquirers who visit India during
the cold weather. Nature.

London's latest thrill is derived from
the feat of man who dives down 90
feet from the roof of the Westminster
aquarium into Il narrow and compare
! lively shallow tank Of water set in the
floor of the building. The exploit calls
for an astounding combination of nerve
and skill and is far more noteworthy
than any Of the bridge jumping acts
which have been so tiresomely frequent
Of late years.
The diver is Thomas Burns, who has
acquired considerable notoriety as diver
from bridges and as an expert swimmer
and not little fame from his having
saved no fewer than 80 lives during his
career. He is a sturdily built man, some
20 years of age. He has frequently dived
from bridges over 100 feet high into riv-
ers, but his dive at the aquarium is u
very different affair He stands on a
tiny platform suspended among the iron
girders of the roof, 95 feet above the
floor, and sees below him, instead of
broad, deep river, a mass of faring, be-
! wildering lights, a sea Of npturned faces,
and in the wooden floor of the stage
what seems from that height to bea mere
slot, the tank in which he must surely
land.
The tank is IS feet long, feet wide
and Z feet deep. The. diver actually
dives, takes header and does not drop
feet foremost, after the manner of the
bridge jumpers The marvellous pre-
cision required to land in the tank is
easily appreciable, as is also the fate
that would befall him should he miss his
mark.-New York Sun.

Then came Commodore Perry unloading
models of railways and other civilized
appliances at Yokohama, with the notice
that he would return in six months to see
how they liked them, and that if they
were unappreciative he would blow ia
pan out Of the water, And then for 30
years the Japanese denationalized them
selves with vengeance, even to the
point of top hats and a house of commons
But now because native pilot has
brought an English steamer into col

do is petitioned TO expel every English.
man from the country. We should not
be sorry if the mikado did so and in

selves rejapanned. The country and its
people form, as it were, one Of the ma
tionai treasures Of the world and should
be carefully preserved and restored. &"

Her Weakness Is kissing Young Men.

Clara the Hugger, or Clara Sherman
was before Justice Blume of Chicago
Thursday morning to explain why she
persists in embracing every young man
she meets. While Policeman Fitzgerald
was travelling his beat he was seized
around the neck by young woman.
She made every effort to draw the Off
GERS face toward hers, but he managed
to free himself from her. Later he saw
the same woman hugging young man.
He placed her under arrest. When ar
raigned in court, she said that whenever
she meets young man with a handsome
face she cannot resist the temptation to
kiss him. Justice Blume fined her 500.

A Volcano In Honolulu.

The floor of Kileauea is at certain
periods subject to overflow by floods of
fresh lava from Halemaumau, which
will probably destroy large sections of
the aforesaid trail, necessitating much
labor in renewing it. This can hardly
occur under two years from now, as it
will probably take that length of time
for the level of the molten lake to work
up the 200 feet or more necessary to en-
able it to discharge itself on the main
floor, During the last period of over
flow, in 1SS9-90, many thousands of acres
Of the main floor In Kileauea received
fresh coatings of lava. In the immediate
vicinity Of Halemaumau pit the leavings
were piled to thickness of from 20 to 80
feet.
Meantime the lake, 500 feet in diam
eter, is overlooking every few days upon
the lava floor around it, which is per-
haps $50 feet lower than the brink Of
the circular pit, which is 2,400 feet in di-
ameter. The American minister, Mr.
Stevens, who was there recently, count
ed 10 fire fountains playing in the lake
at one time. In April last we measured
the largest fountains with an instru-
ment. The Below, pulsating thrice q
minute, was 90 feet in diameter and 80
feet high. Its action was steady and in
cessant during the week we were there.
Other fountains were more furious, but
intermittent. On the whole, the present
aspect of the volcano is unusually salts

THE "DONG TOM

ties against great odds before the episode
at Fayal, and her Long Tom" was al.
ready the mainstay of her armament,
Shortly before the Armstrong sailed for
the Azores she received a new command
er from the regular navy, Captain Sam
uei Chester Reid. He was 30 years OF
age and had been a sailor since he was
II years old. He fought several battles
in his teens and was a prisoner Of war
to the French in 1889
The British squadron entered the har-
tbor of Fayal purposely to capture the
Yankee privateer, which the pilots told
tthem was lying there to take ON water
and provisions. The harbor was neutral.
and the Armstrong could not withdraw
owing to calm The British officers
declared that they would have the priva-
teer and her crew if they had to knock
down the town TO get them. Under
cover of night they sent four launches
j filed with men to board the Yankee.
The attack was repulsed with muskets
and the Long Tom" Two volleys set
tied it, and the boats hauled off. A
second attack was made with IA launches
loaded with Britishers That time the
Long Tom" made fearful havoc firing
into the solid lines Of boats. The attack
was repulsed, and there was lull until
: morning.
. Then the whole British feet closed in
'on the priyateer, The leading ship was
wounded several times by the Long
Tom" and dropped out of the fight.
Reid saw that the British fire was en-
dangering the town in front of which
his vessel lay, 50 be scuttled the schooner
and prepared to fight it ont on land.
The British lost 300 sailors from the
boats, 100 of them killed or drowned.
Reid was showered with honors for
his exploit with the Armstrong and was
appointed TO position in the regular
navy. He was stationed in New York
harbor for number Of years and died
there in 1851. The arrangement of our
national flag with star for every state
and stripe for each of the original 10
was designed by Captain Reid. The re
turn Of the Long Tom" to America was
brought about by Colonel Samuel G.

Miss Prescott undoubtedly presents a
remarkable picture, and one that many
people find it difficult to become used to
no matter how frequently they see her.

and In summer sailor hat Of straw
trimmed with band of ribbon. She is
good looking and intelligent, and despite
the wonder and amusement her costume
creates she wins the respect of every one
and the esteem Of many by her kindly
manner.
Miss Prescott has had her romance in
her time, having been twice engaged to
be married Her first fance she did not
care for, and he went west and finally
married there. They had been engaged
only to suit their families. The man
she loved and would have married died

which are said TO be very original and
