Shades of flyer, Heenan, Nor rissey and Savers, look down upon us and condone the seeming profanity of that jocose satire! have unconscious ly assimilated bon dit of famous statesman, but it strikes me as exceed ingly pat and I use it for what it is worth. Imagine for a moment If you can the great quartette have mentioned or any of their compeers refusing bona fide challenge properly backed upon the plea that theatrical contracts prevented the acceptance of a fstic engagement for a year or two. Why, they would be hooted off the stage, if not out of the country. No champions were fighters in those days and not actors. They fought for one-tenth and even one-twentieth of the stakes looking glass champions now demand as prerequisite to their entering the ring. And right royal battles they were, with bare knuckles, on the turf, and not with pillows in a padded arena. Just think of itl Yankee Sullivan and John Morrissey fought for one thousand dollars side, and John 0. Heenan and Tom Savers battled for the fstio su- premacy of the world for like amount. Now two foreign middleweights, Hall and Fitzsimmons, cooIly demand forty thousand dollars for 8 glove fight, and what is more, get it.
 Big purses create actors and fal>irs- Why, even the pigmies of the ring scorn fistic fray unless ten thousand dollars or moro is put up as the need o1 victory. The loser. too, wants a big monetary balm for bis injuries If the little fellows cannot star as Gentle

 As if in obcdirpcc, Cour;land closed his eyes.

lived a little longer in the south he'd have known it wasn't necessary to do that in self-preservation as the hounds would never have gone for white man. But that was not a matter for the colonel to bother about now. He was doing well; he had slept nearly thirty hours; there was no fever, he must con- tinue to doze off the exhaustion of his powerful stimulant, and he, the doctor, would return later in the afternoon.
 Perhaps it was his very inability to grasp, in that exhausted state, the full comprehension of the doctors meaning, perhaps because the physical benumb- ing of brain was stronger than any mental excitement, but he dozed again until the doctor reappeared. "You're doing well enough, now, colonel" said the physician, after brief eXamina- tion of his patient, "and think we can afford to wake you up bit; and even let you move your arm. You're luckier than poor Jo Higbee, who won't be able to set his leg to the floor for three weeks to come. I haven't got all the bucl1shot out of 1t yet that Jack Dumont put there the other night"

SAVORY BEEF,
Directions For Making a Very Toothsome
 Dish.

>-
 Dish.
 Savory beef is an old-time English dish, which is highly esteemed. Take a piece of the tender part of a round of beef, weighing about ten or fifteen pounds If it is not perfectly tender, or has not been well hung, let it hang in cold place three or four days longer. Remember that the best butchers in New York and other large cities hang their beef from four to six weeks after it is killed. In freezing weather this is none too long,
 For savOry beef, weigh out three ounces of saltpetre, three-quarters of a pound of common salt, one ounce of coarse sugar, quarter of an ounce each of black pepper and allspice, four or five sprays of parsley, the same amount of summer savOry, a sprig of sweet mar joram if convenient, two bay leaves and two or three sprigs of thyme Pound all these ingredients together. Take out any bone that may be in the meat and rub the meat thoroughly with the pounded mixture. Let it hang in a | cold place for about two weeks, and every day turn it and rub it. When you are ready to cook it. wipe it off rub it with a little butter, cut up an onion and throw over it, dredge it lightly with flour and roast it in a slow oven for about six hours. Or, if you prefer it, in pot with a cut-up onion l or carrot, and let it stew slowly, in boiling water enough to cook it, for five or six hours The liquor it is stewed in should be saved. The meat
 is always served cold. If it is stewed,
 it should be cooled in the liquor in ! which it is cooked.
 This savory beef will keep for two l weeks in cold weather after it is cooked, | and is a wholesome, inexpensive article to keep in the house for the accidental | uiSitnr or fn,. crannral familu 11sa A

men Jacks" they can get up vaudeville shows and clear five hundred or one thousand dollars a week. Why,
 then, should they want to fight. when
 one or two victories CD will place them in a position of affluence9 Think of the colossal assurance of George Dixon, who claims to be feather-weight cham pion of the world and won't battle for the title with Johnny Griffin. He, or
 rather his astute manager, haughtily informs the Braintree lad that "theat- rical engagements" won't be broken
 unless Griffin consents to fight at one hundred and eighteen pounds. One hundred and twenty-two pounds Is the feather-weight limit, and Griffin and
 manager rightfully contend that Dixon
 must concede to an opponent the right
 to weigh in at that figure or relinquish the championship. Griffin even agrees to give two pounds away and fight at | one hundred and twenty pounds. but Dixon's sly manager won't hear of the proposition. Why? Because he fears that Griffin Is the colored lads master at that weight, and what then would become of the vaudeville combina-
 tion" and the one thousand dollars 1t is
 now earning weekly? At one hundred
 and eighteen pounds Manager O'Rourke knows that Griffin would be two weak | to fight and the thousand dollar weekly income would be saved
 By the observations that have thus
 far indulged in do not wish to be un- derstood as holding that there are no
 real fighters in the present generation.
 John L. Sullivan, Jack Dempsey and
 Jack McAuliffe are fighters through
 and through. With the first two I am
 not on terms of concord. In fact we do
 not speak as we pass by, but I can do justice to their splendid qualities of head
 and heart The trio named are cour-
 ageous, manly and game to their
 hearts cores. Each has met the best [ and bravest of his own and other lands.

They were always 1. lon the level" to use q sporting phrase, and thus gained the confidence of the American public. while their magnan- Unity to fallen fees and open-hcarted generosity have made them popular idols.

 In fact, no foreign fighters, save an isolated instance here and there, have any of the attributes of real manhood They are pluclly enough in the ring, but towards out of it.

 Of the big pugilists now actively be- lSES CIlS puDilc Joe NOu(itirC, O1 AuSIr lia, is perhaps the only one who is hon est and sincere in his pugilistic aspira tions. He is different in every way from his countrymen. He is honest and manly. He is ambitious of win. ming the worlds championship and is ready and willing to meet Corbett Jackson, Mitchell, Slavin or any fighter breathing. Not only is he willing to dc this, but announces that he will back himself to any reasonable amount in 6 side bet, independent of club purse. Contrast his conduct with that of the other great gladiators. Cute Charley Mitchell, the sly, devilish sly Joey Bag, stock of the ring, declines to meet him He ayers that he is after higher game in the person of Champion James J Corbett. Maybe he is. He is now prac tically without home or country, and he must do something to rehabilitate him self in popular esteem.

BISMARCK'S DOGS.
Four Footed Friends Who Were ThoI
 ouEhly Reliable.

Four-Footed Friends Who Were Thor
 ouGhly Reliable.
 In his recent interview with Dr. Hans Blum, the national liberal poli- tician, Prince Bismarck did not confine himself altogether to charging Caprivi with incompetence, Radowitz with drunkenness, and the late Empress Au- gusta with intriguing opposition, but at the suggestion of the princess re- lated few stories concerning his two faithful friends, the late imperial dogs, Sultan and Tiras.
 "Whenever I went away from home" :" said Bismarck, Sultan nosed about everywhere for me with every evidence of deep sorrow. Finally, he would always seek consolation in my military cap and my deerskin gloves, which he would carry in his mouth to my work room and drop on the floor. He would then lie down with his nose on them, and would not leave them except for meals until came back.
 'Old Tiras, too. was very intelligent and faithful I used to go to the reichstag through the garden behind the chancellor's palace, and thence through the Koniggratzer strasse. As l went out the gate into the street I would turn to Tiras, who had followed me so far, and say 'Reichstag' in my ordinary tone of voice. At once Tiras would sdrop head and tail and sneak back to the house. Once when started out in uniform left my walking stick just inside the garden wall. returned four hours later from the reichstag, and as I entered the house I noticed that Tiras was not there as usual to well come me. To my inquiry about the dogs whereabouts the watchman re- piled: He has stood for four hours at the back garden wall and will not let anybody go near your excellency's walking stick At Varzin one day l found by the roadside a wood-cart, which l thought had been stolen, be- cause the wood was green. I told Tiras to watch it while I went toumake in | quiries. Nevertheless, he began to sneak after me. l turned back and laid my glove on the cart and Tiras re, mained, watching it for more than an hour as if he had taken root in the ground.--Chicago Times.

The modern fighter, like the humor- ist to whose memory the gloomy Dane paid parting tribute at the grave side, is "a fellow of infinite jest and most exquisite fancy" The humor of the gladiator is rendered all the more ex- quisite by an apparent inconsistencies that he is at all funny.

recollection of the young girls volce- the last thing he had heard that night and the mystery that seemed to sur round it. But there was no dclusion in this cousin-his rival, and that of the equally-deccivcd Champney. He con- trollcd himself and repeated coldly:
 Jack Dumont?"
 "Ycs. But of course you knew noth- ing of all that while you were off in the swamp there. Yet, by Jingo! it was Dumonts shooting IIigbce that helped you to get off your nigger, alarmed sight more than your killing the dogs"
 II don't understand" returned Court land, coldly.
 Well, you see Dumont, who had taken up no'th'n principles I reckon moro to goad the IIigbccs and please Sally Dows than from any conviction, came over here that night. Whether wanted to dare Higbee for bedevil- ment, or was only dancing attendance on Miss Sally no ono knows. But he rode slap into Higbee's party, called out: of you're out hunting Jo! here's chance for your experimenting their old vendetta feud - and brings his shotgun up to his shoulder. Higbee wasn't quick enough; Dumont lets fly, drops IIigbee and then gallops off chased by the Reeds to avenge Higbee and followed by the whole crowd to see tho fun-which was a lit tie better than nigger driving. And that lot you and Cato out, colonel"
 And Dumont?'
 ''Got clean away to FoXboro station, leaving another score on his side for the Reeds and Higbees to wipe out, as best they can. You no'th'n men don't be- lieve in these sort of things, colonel, but taken as a straight dash and bit O raiding, that stroke of Sally Dows' cousin was mighty fine!"
 Courtland controlled himself with difficulty. The doctor had spoken truly. The hero of this miserable af- fair was her cousin-his rival. And to him-pcrhaps influenced by some pity ing appeal of Miss Sally for the man sho had dcceived-Courtland owed his life. He instinctively drew a quick, sharp breath.
 Are you in pain?"
 Not at all. When can I get up?'
 "Pcrhaps tomorrow"
 And this arm?"
 "Better not use 1t for a week or two. " He stopped and, glancing patcrnally at the younger man, added gravely, but kindly: If you'll take my unprofes- sional advice, Col Courtland, you'll let this matter simmer down. It won't hurt you and your affairs here that folks have had taste of your quality, and the niggcr a lesson that his fellows won't forget"
 II thank you," returned Courtland, coldly, but think I already under stand my duty to tho company rep resent and the government l have served"
 "Possibly, coloncl," said the doctor, but you'll let an older man remind you and the government that you can't change the habits or relations of two distinct races in few years Your friend, Miss Sally Dows, although not quite in my way of thinking, has never attempted hut."

The whole events of the night might have been q dream, but for the unsupportablc languOr which numbed his senses, and the tOrpOr of his arm that swollen and distnlorcd lay outside the covcrlid on pillow before him. Cloths that had been wrunG out in iced water were replaced upon it from time to time, by Sophy, Miss Dows' house keeper, who seated by his bedside was lazily flaming him. Their eyes met.

Dempsey right off the reel, but prom ised Jack that I would back him, al though told the Nonpareil that it was like burning up the money to do so. The bluff worked and Mitchell weak ened. He would not meet the brave Brooklyn lad.
 Again contrast Corbett's and Jack sons tactics with those of Goddard. Jackson fought an eight round draw with the Australian at home, but he declines to meet him now. He, too, ayers that he Is looking high and wants to go at Corhett, with whom ho also fought draw. The Californian keeps up the comedy by smiling in lofty dis dain at Goddard. He wants Mitchell or even John L. Sullivan, whom he de- feated-two sure marks. For them he will break theatrical contracts and meet either in September, but the mo- ment Jackson or Goddard is Haunted before his vision up again goes the ''the- atrical compact" banner. It is a safe refuge.
 Now the truth of the matter is that all of these men fear Goddard. They sheer at his ungainly style and declare that he is not up to the championship form, but they know in their souls that he is a very dangerous customer to take on. They know that he has the heart of lion and the strength as well; that his frame is like adamant and almost impossible to puncture; that he can give as well as receive terrific punishment with Spartan stoicism, and, last of all, that he has never yet met with defeat. The man who, when almost a novice at fighting, could stand off Peter Jackson and Paddy Slavin, and easily vanquish
