More Potato.

Renan had a great contempt for mere
words, however eloquent. One evening
he met at a sort of literary dinner M.
Caro-, the philosopher beloved of fine la
dies, who set himself to prove the exist
ence of God. His eloquent assertions did
not seem to interest the sage. In the
middle of one Of his most sonorous Pc
riods M. Renan attempted to make him
self heard.
But all the ladies were intensely in
terested. They would not have their
pleasure spoiled.
In a moment, M. Renan, we viii
listen to you in your turn"
He bowed submissively.
Toward the end Of dinner NJ. Caro-.
out Of breath, stopped with a rhetorical
emphasis. At once every one turned TO-
ward the illustrious scholar, hoping that
he would enter the lists, and the hostess,
with an encouraging smile, said:
"Now, NJ. Renann=

q little behindhand."

Nothing New Under tho Sun.

but that every thought is a revival OF an
imitation or a downright plagiarism of
some one which preceded it years and
years ago. said Calvin S. Southwood as
he warmed his feet against a heater in
the rotunda of the Lindell. "Even
the inventions that appear so brand new
may have existed or their possibility
been suggested away back before the
dawn of history. At any rate this is evil

AMATEUR ATHLETIC UNION.
ISlund Of the Warren Athletic Club Makes
Good Showing.


"A Good Showing.
Final bouts i'm the Amateur Athletic
Union boxing and wrestling champion
ships were decided at the Academy of
Music Saturday evening. and there was
even a larger attendance of spectators
than on Thursday night when the trial
bouts were contested
j. A. klund, w. A. c., was the only
representative from Wilmington I'm the
finals, and made the most remarkable
record, singly and in the aggregate. of any
amateur wrestler i'm the United States
In the two nights of the championships
he wrestled four men, the cream of his
class l2j pounds, and threw his first
man in seven seconds, breaking the
worlds record, the second i'm twenty-nlne
seconds, the third in forty nine seconds,
making a total of but eighty-iive seconds
FOR the three men,
The finals narrowed down between
Iroelsch, of the p A. s. c., and klund.
AT the cali of time klund started in
with his usual rush and inside of a min
ute had Troelsch up in the air against
the ropes, when Troelsch deliberately
threw his arm around the post nearest to
him and held on In defiance of the rules
until the referee, instead of making him
let go, compelled Klund to break his hold
on Iroelsch and ordered both men
TO the centre of the mat and
then, when klund, according to the
rules, attempted TO resume his hold the
referee permitted Troelsch to put both
feet on the ground, whereas, when the
hold was broken Troelsch was swinging
In the air with both feet of the ground
helpless. The wrestling was resumed
and the six minutes expired without a
fall
AT the expiration of the three minute
rest they came together again with
klund underneath. Within about one
minute of the expiration Of the second
six minutes proelsch drew Klund toward
him and tilted him slightly toward the
floor when to the surprise of the specta.
tors the referee touched Troelsch ON the
back, thus awarding him the bout. -,..
Those who were In a position to see,
and particularly the reporters at the end
of the table opposite the mat were dis
gusted and hissed the referee, several
Of them jumping up in their excitement
and calling il robbery.
The above is one of the results of hav-
ing local judges and referees, who
whether intentionally or not, invariably
display partiality toward local compe-
titors
Another cause OF dissatisfaction in
connection with this tournament is the
fact that, although the rules state that
each competitor shall draw for himself
Ohese rules were printed on the official
progrsm) the committee did the draw
ing and when the competitors from the
Pasttime Club of New York objected
they were given no redress. whereupon
they Withdrew their team and will pro
test the meeting as irregular.

salutary conventions are not obligatory

benefit Of society at large, but any one
with a lively and manly conscience can
discern perfectly we'll when the proper
occasion for an exception comes, and it is
a mark Of moroidness when the deliber
ate breach of conventions of this kind Is
treated as a genuine sin Indeed, il
seems TO us that there can be nothing
more fatal to the various social conven-
tions of which se have been speaking-
the conventions which remove needless
temptations from the path of the weak, the
conventions which discourage all over ex.

conventions which protect one day i'm the

1 nice looking old gentleman with a

with an application for place, indorsed
Dy some letters of recommendation.
When the official asked him a question
he said: "Please write it down. / am so
deaf that l could not hear a sound if a
cannon were fired off close to my ear"
General McCauley thought that this
was rather a disadvantage for an appli-
