The Craze For Athletic rroph,es.

At every championship fight there is al ways struggle for the gloves of the victor In almost every club it is an unwritten law that the gloves shall be destroyed. Scores of relic and advertisement hunters put in pleas to get these implements of battle. After the Goddard Maher fight it required four men to get the gloves away from God dard, and he said: Folk yer purse, but gi' me the gloves. 'AnG youI rules; l want the gloves" He did not get them, how ever. Joe Choynski actually cried when the gloves he whipped Godfrey with were taken away from him. O'Donnell wanted the Cattenach gloves for a mascot. but they were refused him, notwithstanding that it was his first victory in America Athletes display the same desire to get the running shoes worn by men in record breaking races. Sparrow Robertson was accustomed to turn this feature to advantage. He made a practice of getting Willie Days shoes whenever he smashed n record.
 At that time Robertson made d business of manufacturing and selling shoes When ever he had dissatisfied customer, he gath cred him in by saying: Well, I'll tell you what I'll do. Here's a pair of shoes Willie Day wore when he smashed the 10 mile rec ord" Then, as he always kept a lot of half worn shoes of various sizes, he would bring out a pair and unload them. In Yale, Princeton and Harvard football and base ball games there is always a keen hunt for the ball after the games, but 1t rarely hap pens that an outsider gets it, for the win ming college men usually take it home and place it, duly labeled, m exhibition In the gymnasium.

seat will not be found hard to do if these directions by Good Housekeeping are strictly followed:
 First cut the old canes from the chair with sharp knife and see that all the holes are clear from ',rt and broken canes. Then begin lv v,si;inS the canes in a pail of water.
 Now put trS first cane in the middle hole marked in the diagram (there are generally IS holes at the back and 22 in front of a common dining room chair). In the diagram each line represents cane, so there are two canes in each hole.
 Put the first cane in No. l and have a peg of some kind ready to put in the hole to fasten; then bring 1t over and put it into No. ?, pull tight and drive another peg; then bring 1t up on the under side through No. 6, then from No. 6 to No. ,, then from No. under to No. 1, all the time pulling tight and driving pegs; from No over 10 No. 3, then under to No. :, then from No. to No. s.
 One need only have few pegs, as all but the last one that has been driven in can be pulled out after this is done. Count of the holes on the other side. In the diagram there are 19. Commence at No. 10 and start as at No l. After this is securely begged at No. 10, weave it under and over the four canes already in place to the other side, marked No. II; then draw it through to No. l2, weave back to No. l3. under to No. 10, then weave No. II and fasten with peg. The next thing to do Is to follow the di rections given for Nos. 1, 1. ,. g. and Nos ,, 3, 6. :; then the directions for Nos. 10, 13, II, 12.
 All the rest of the caning Is done in the same way until all the holes are filled. Bt. careful and weave evenly and draw the canes tight. After having fin iShed weaving back and forth, take d similar chair, or the old seat taken out, and see how the cross canes are woven. One can understand this better by look ing at an old seat or another chair than by printed explanation. Do all run ming one way first, then the other.
 The chair can now be considered done except the binding off. Notice that around the chair there is q cane laid to give q finish and to cover up the holes. Take cane long enough to go around. Commence at the corner marked A, and put the cane through the hole, and put in q peg, and lay it smoothly along over the holes. Take another cane. and put it on the outside of the cane that forms the binding, and then bring it over the binding and in at the same hole through to tine under side. Run it along to the next hole. and proceed as before; so on until the corner is reached. Draw the cane down through. have q small peg Just large enough to fit in tperhaps the old one may have been savedl, then bring the cane back, so that when the small l peg to keep it in place is driven in, it is ! ready to commence the front, and the 1 peg is concealed. Proceed on the front as at the side, and finish all corners the same.
 After the reseatinS Is done have lit tie varniSh and brush over the seats This will preserve them and make the seat less liable to break. A bundle of canes. enough for six chairs, can be bought for 15 cents. The canes are three wards long and easy to handle.
