THE far and frontier" west does not appear to be peopled exclusively by tough citizens. At Winnemucca, New, a jury was formed recently of men whose average age was twenty-seven, who were all total abstainers from drink. none smoked cigarettes and none had ever chewed tobacco. Still this does not prove everything. There have been mild-mannered, abstemious men own ing large private graveyards, and it takes Q clear-headed man to hold up a stage successfully. Some of the worst of the old buccaneers were pious men of good habits.

ACCORDING to Mir Porter's census there are more than three millions of bachelors in the United States over 30 years of age. This seems large figure, but figures are large or small only as matter of proportion or comparison, and the proportion this number of bachelors bears to the number of married men of One thing is certain, that men do not marry as early in life as they did for merly. The reason for this is undoubt- edly the growing disinclination of men and women, especially in the cities, to marry on small means. It is mistake, no doubt, but it is the modern tendency and must be recognized. Another thing that seems certain, is that the number of marriages at any age is growing less in proportion to the popu- lation than it was formerly, though not as rapidly as has been assumed by theorists. It has been sought to ex- plain this in various ways, but the prin- cipal reason seems to have been over- looked. Women move about more freely to-day then they ever did before
 It is the modern emancipation of women," if you will, but the tendency is unmiytakably toward disenchant- ment. Nowadays the young man works in the office, shop or store along side of the young woman. He has but little opportunity to cherish romantic illusions about the gentler sex, for too often those illusions are dispelled before they are fairly formed. He learns more than is really good to know, about women, and unconsciously absorbs an aversion to the state of matrimony, that
 is likely to become fixed prejudice at
 a time of life when he should be pre- pairing to "settle down."

BERLIN, Nov. 14.-Herr Voight.
Socialist writer, has been sentenced to
a years Imprisonment at Dortmund on
account of an article which he had
written in the Rheinisch Westfaelische
ZeituDg, asserting that Prince Bis
marck mad falsified the famous Ems dis
patch. During the trial of Herr Voight
counsel for the defendant asked that
Prince Bismarck be summoned or sub
nit sworn statement to the effect that
he had not altered the sense Of the text
of the dispatch which led to the war of
1879 and III between France and Ger
many. The tribunal, however, refused
this request, at the public prosecu-
tors instance, he declaring that
be regarded as established that
Prince Bismarck freely translated the
dispatch, but that Prince Bismarck con-
verted ''bugle note for capitulation"
into trumpet call for CHARGE" IN order
to force a declaration of war. 1t was
not, however, according to the ruling
permitted to call the diplomat forger
on that account.

WIND FIGHTERS.
Mitchell and Number of Sports
Do Mich TALKING

NEW YORK, Nov. IA. The admirers
of pugllists and pugilism had plenty of
excitement in the "fenderloin" district
tonight. Harry Mason. of Jackson
vile. Fla, entertained Charles Mitch
ell. Jim Hall. Steve O'Donnell, Billy
Thompson, manager for Mitchell. and a
few other friends at dinner in the Ged-
uey house. About O'Clock the party
went up stairs to private room, where
they were joined by Col. '.BilI" Hard
ing and Manager Edw ards, of the
"Romany Rye" company. Manager
Billy Brady came in a few min
utes later, representing Corbett.
There was quiet tip out that the
articles of agreement for glove contest
would be signed by the pugilists or their
managers, and it was thought that they
would be signed then and there. Rep
resentatives of the press were requested
to leave the room. and a few minutes
later the entire party cams out.
Mitchell said: II am not going to
sign articles in New York and l
won't leave New York to sign them,
either. II know am being shadowed
and don't wish to violate the law, as
said. IL agree with every word
that Charley says. and we have no
doubt that the match will come
off Notwithstanding all this talk"
Mitchell. with his manager, &C
companied by w. E. Edwards,
together with number of others
walked leisurely down Broadway.
Billy Brady Joined the party, and said
Mitchell did not want to fight. sWhy?
l have signed them." he said, land

were Joined by Joe Fendig, better
known as Circular joe" He is closely
ldentlhed with the Dwyer brothers.
Mitchell, Vendig. Mason and Brady
held heated conversation. Mitch
ell insisted that the fight would
not take place until Jan. 25. 1894,
while Brady wished to have 1t
take place on the original date, Jan. 4.
but he finally agreed to the 25th. Then
Mitchell said: How about the side
bet?' "What about the $40, 900 posted
in Boston with Mr.. Blanchard said
Brady. "Oh. we'll, if you want to place
Inc that way" said Mitchell, why | will
put up $4,000 of that as side bet and
$1,000 as forfeit, if l dent appear in
tho iluSs anu L WduL This money COW
cred. Brady. who seemed anxious to
have his man Corbett get a chance
to fight, conceded everything but
Mitchell impressed all those present
with the belief that he was trying to
put forward every obstacle to prevent
the fight taking place. Look here"
said Brady. ''Tll bet you $1,000 that
you'll never appear in the rug"
Mitchell turned and said: "Pll
bet you, put up your money !"
Brady replied he didn't have it just now,
but ii [ put it up tomorrow with this
proviso that if the police stop the fight,
and [ cannot prove that it is through
your work that the police interfered I'll
forfeit the money. AS neither man
seemed to have. the cash about his
person. Bookmaker Ike Thompson and
Joe Vendig offered to put up the stuff
At this juncture Mitchell made sneer-
ing remark in reference to Brady. which
made the latter very angry. 1t looked
as II some person was going to get hurt,
but no blows were struck.
