1T may not be generally known that
the great majority of the boiler tubes

ships this concern has furnished all the
boiler tubes, total of 80, 800 These
ships include the New York, Olympia,

books" to use his own expression, they
will be nothing to what he will have
when the new home is formally taken
possession of. There will be full set
of classics, not translations merely,
but the originals Mr.. Croker, no
doubt, wishes to edify his leisure with
the lyrics of Catullus, Tibbullus and
Propertius. Then there are books on
mental philosophy, including the
lucubrations of Spinoza, Descartes,
FIGHTER and Kant. The library seems
inexplicably deficient in light liter
ature, but there is a set of Millions
poetical ~orks-strange reading, truly,
for modern municipal Caesar! In
English poetry Mr.. Croker has COM
menced appropriately enough with
Shakespeare. He owns rare edition
of the Paradise Lost" done in
red Russia and gilt, and the
''Odes of Horace rendered by Francis,
seems favorite, to judge from the
books well-worn condition. 1t is said
that Mrs. Croker, who had unusually
good educational advantages in her
early youth, is responsible for the ten
dency to higher literary indulgence in
her husbands mental make up. How
ever it comes about, the Crokers are
liberal book buyers, and their home is
far more judiciously supplied with the
wares of publishers than is that of
many a person with pretensions to
scholarship. 1t has been said that Mr..
Croker has become so fond of coat
of arms that he puts it everywhere.
This assertion is incorrect so far as the
books he owns are concerned.
The room set apart as a library is
spacious and luxurious, done in light
paper and cherry wood. To the right
there is a study for Mr. Croker, al
though the nature of the abstruse
mental problems to which the despot
of Gotham will devote his intellectual
leisure is not made evident, for there
isn't even the picture of horse visible
in the apartment yet.

DIXON WHIPS SMITH.

CoNEY ISLAND, Sept. 25.-Fully 5000
people gathered tonight to witness two
fights here. The preliminary bout was
between Fred Morris and Jim Burge. the
so-called Iron-Back. 1t was at catch
weights. After ten lively rounds, the de-
cision was awarded in Morris favor
Burge proved himself no easy mark. how
ever, giving and receiving punishment
with the utmost GOODNESS.
The main interest centered in the match
between Dixon and Smith. Dixon won
the toss and his manager picked up the
smallest pair of gloves he could hnG
Dixon's seconds were George Godfrey of
Boston, Jack Marlin of Boston, and Tom
O'Rourke. Smiths seconds were Billy
Delaney, Seward Smith and Jack Oliver.
Both men appeared to be in fine condi-
tion. but Smith looked to be the lighter of
the two On the call of. time Smith made
a rush. and there was cllDch. AT the
separation Dixon tried three OF his famous
left swings for Smiths face, but Solly
lodged them all. They stood away awhile,
and Dixon sent out his right on the ear
and sent Smith to the floor i'll a clean
knockdowu.
In the third there were many rushes and
ciincbes. Smith went down four times,
twice by clean blows and twice by rushes.
IL the fourth Dixon planted blow after
blow on Smiths body, and eventually,
i. ssith right on the ear, sent Smith to the
floor. Smith made all his play at the face,
but not fast enough. Both fought hard
In the fifth, with another love-tap on
the ear, Dixon sent Smith to his knees.
Smith came back with right-hander on
the colored boys nose, making 1t bleed.
The blow almost staggered the leather
weight champion, and he did no more
forcing for the moment. Dixon started
again, and siugged Solly in the face three
times.
In the sixth, after sparring minute,
Dixon caught another Oh the nose, renew
ing t1e flow of blood. DiXon's eye was
closed and his messed resembled piece of
raw beef. A couple of close rallies follow
to. but no damage was done.
In the seventh round Smith planted his
right and his left and got away without
return. He kept away and clinched when
cornered. Dixon planted his right on
Smiths face, aud later fioored him with a
straight right. The California boy arose
to his feet, 10 be foored again. He arose
again just before the gong sounded,
but was too weak TO stand, and fell again
in his corner. He gamely staggered to his
feet once more, reeling like a drunken
man. and essayed TO continue, but the
referee advanced and prevented continu-
ance of the brutal play. Dixon was then
declared the winner.

not now have liveried seneschal at
the Fifth avenue house. The door is
in the morning opened by a natty per-
son of the female sex and uncertain
age, and the valetaille appear only at
night. But the Astors have not been

New Workers on their servants, and
they have made three distinct changes

parvenu imitator 1t is stated that the
lackeys of swelldom propose organiz-

pleasant to change their attire three
times in as many hours.
OF course, the lackeys do not pay
for their own clothes which. as rule,
cost from twenty to one hundred and
fifty dollars a suit. A footman's boots
are twenty dollars per pair. However,
it pays millionaires to spend money in
this way. They could never enjoy their
fortunes without good servants. The
Astors have two servitors who have
been thirty-fve years in the family.
They give high salaries in addition to
''keep," and when man or woman be-
comes superannuated in their service
he or she retires upon pension. They
support now some dozen ex-menials.

to build steel ships, great deal about

that divides railroad passengers from
disaster. No matter how heavy and
how strongly built the cars may be;
no matter how fast or how powerful
the engine may be: no matter how
well made and well ballasted the
track, the real safety of the train lies
in the fange of the car wheel, which is
not more than an inch thick at its
widest part, and tapers from that to
an edge. It is the hange that keeps
the wheels on the rails. When the
fange breaks the wheels jump the
track and destruction follows. Even a
small piece broken from the periphery

An Easy Way of Cleansing Fruits From
Insects.
It is one of the peculiarly unpleasant
incidents of life to sit down in the
midst Of ones guests and, after serving
some delicious fruit, find certain forms
of insect life meandering about it with
Although this is by no means an un-
usual circumstance, it is one for which
the housekeeper can scarcely be held
responsible, especially in biueberries,
raspberries and similar fruits, where
there are open ends in which insects
may very easily curl themselves up
and could not be detected save by the
berry. 1t is not generally understood
that these unwelcome guests can be
gotten rid OF in an easy and effectual
way. As soon as the fruit is brought
in scatter over it quantity of table
salt. A small handful to quart of
berries is not too much. Very gently
shake the berries about until all of
them have come in contact with the
salt, then pour on water sufficient to
cover them, let them stand for one or
two minutes: then hold them under
the faucet or very gently pour water
into the dish. allowing It 70 run ont

is most easily done by having the fruit
