ForeihOught of Texans.

~ went up to the White House
yesterday" said Representative Kill
gore to Washington Post reporter,
"and of course / had a Texan in tow.
sMr. President said [, this gentle
man. He wants Consulate in Mex
ico.'
'The President said 'Phew-w-wv
I" "'Why do you whistler asked.
"E'Because he wants Consulate in
Mexico said the President. you
know very well that [ dislike to ap-
point Texans to those positions.
+" Now, Mr.. President, I said,
you will excuse my speaking plainly,
but this prejudice against men from
my State holding Federal positions in
Mexico is the most confounded non
sense on record. grant that it might
apply to the candidate for Minister,
for he handles international questions,
but Consul is nothing more or less
than business man. His official acts
are almost entirely of a commercial
character. Texans are constantly do
ing business with Mexico. The trade
relations of the two countries are very
close.
"'Well, said the President, 4 didn't
make this prejudice, but it exists,
and we are compelled to defer to it.
Your friend must widen the scope of
of his application. Let him make out
list of the consulates he would be
willing to take, naming them in order
of his preference, and I will see what
I can do.
"It's singular thing" added the
Congressman, refectively, "that near
ly all of my people who have come to
Washington want consulates-they
won't have anything else and they
generally apply for places in Mexico,
which they can't get Their anxiety
to be located in the sister republic is
explicable, [ suppose, upon the ground
that it is near home, the Rio Grande
is shallow, and if they go broke they
can walk back"

Combined Effort Necessary.

Here is a floating paragraph that
says great deal in a small space,
and it is general enough to apply to
any and all communities "No COM
munity ever prospered, no town ever
grew without some kind of COM
bined effort for the general good
without some expenditure of money.
The towns that have happened to pos
sess men who have worked together
for the general good have forged
ahead, while those that have men of
great conservatism, who have been
content to sit down and let fortune
come have gone to decay, or have not
progressed. People who would pro-
gress must something-must take
some chances. At this age it is hard
to call to mind town that has grown

put forth some sort OF exertion; with
out having done something other
than sit down and let prosperity

Effects of Frost at Niagara Falls.

The wear and tear OF the elements
on Niagara may be better remarked in
early spring than at any other season.
Great powders are continually falling
from the faces of the cliffs where they
were loosened by the action OF the
frost. and the same process no doubt is
going on in the stone under the cata-
racts. The erosive power of the water
fall is not so great, but water, wind
and frost together make the recession
of the gorge, particularly on the Horse
shoe side, quite perceptible.-

UNSOPHISTICATED.

She was bashful. self-conscious but rosy,
This fresh little bud from the fields;
She'd blush like the heart Of posy
When 10 the soft zephyr 1t yields.
And not being well up in grammar,
She'd often say came" STEAD OF come"
And she'd pick at her apron and stammer,
And Eat home" with this maid, 'to
hum"
And the questions she'd ask you we're funny
On matters irrelevant quite;
But her smile was go open and sunny,
To answer them all was delight.
And she'd tell you, with naive little touches
OF frsnkness confding as sweet,
OF things the most personal, such as
Her age and the size OF her feet
And Of quizzing she'd never suspect you.
Though amused at her sallies you were,
And her laughter uncurbed would infect you
As well as her "bon hommc' rare.
As for slang-let us draw here the curtain,
And country slang, mind you Ut that;
And. heavensi the town bellies, I'm certain,
Most swOoned at the style Of her hat
Yet, STILL this sweet maiden bucolic
Had virtue enough in her way;
Though rather too ready TO trolic,
She kept mooping dudelets at bay
10 fact, She had Just enough "gumption."
Or call IL good sense, II you please,
While blandly ignoring presumption,
With look the 'presumer' TO freeze.
And then she could get up such dishes,
And "hxin's an things, that you'd own
That never such cooking delicious
To tickle your palate you'd known.
Besides she made all her own dresses
As well as her sisters, they say,
And neatly she groomed her brown tresses,
Though not In conventional way.
So while oil the girls In the city,
Where she'd come for TO visit a SPELL"
Tried, each, to be brilliant and witty,
And laughed at her frequent do :ell,"
She kept her own gait most demurely,
Nor noticed their quzzing and chaf
And, all quite unconscious, was surely
On them neatly turning the laugh.
For soon It appeared that this posy,
So verdant and fresh from the fields;
so blushing confding and rosy,
With arts that true innocence Yields,
Had captured nobility's scion,
The hope of the citified BELLE
Who said, as she sighed for her lion:
"Well there Did you ever! Do tell"

Since the COney Island Athletic club

attracted here last evening. II
is estimated that there were be-

the building.
jim Corbett was givcna great ova-
ton when he walked into the building,
accompanied by Manager Brady and
several other friends They were
shown to one of the private booths.

ing room and climbed upon the stage
1t was regular panaemonium, as
there were fully twenty Pierce men
present to one to admire Dixon.
1t was ten minutes TO 10 when tba
men began their battle. The purse
A.
was $500, of which the loser received
$500
Dixon wore nothing but a white
jockey strap and brown shoes, while
Pierce wore blue trunks, a white belt
and dark canvas shoes.
Round 0ne-Dixon led with left az
ter little feinting and caught Pierce
in the wind. He visited the same spot
again. After some cautious sparring
in which Dixon showed up to the best
advantage the men clinched on the
ropes, but broke away of their
own accord. Dixon then smashed
Pierce with his left, and again with
his right. A clinch followed and
Dixon showed he was good hand at
the game of infghting and made Pierce
break his hold Dixon caught Pierce
again and the round ended.
Round two-After a short feint by
Dixon, Pierce led heavily on Dixon's
face and then ducked a right handler
cleverlg A sharp rally followed, of
which Pierce appeared to have the ad-
vantage. Dixon endeavored to land
his right, but was met and stopped
very cleverly. Pierce appeared to have
gained confidence in himself as the
round ended.
Round three-Dixon started in for
business. He sent IN his left and
drove Pierce to the ropes Then fol-
lowed such volley of rights and lefts
that Pierce must have thought there
was shower of hands and arms.
First he became dazed, tried to
recover and went down in a
heap. Struggling up before time
limit he was met with lightn ing-like
jabs in the face and jaw that would
have settled bigger and stronger
man than Pierce He sank 10 the
floor and was counted out. 1t took
nearly ten minutes for him TO regain
consciousness. Pierce was clearly out
classed.

of excitement First, there was a
heated debate on the question whether

carried TO admit delegates only from
societies recognizing the necessity of
the organization of labor concurrcntly
with political action.
The adoption of this resolution.
which was tantamount TO the exclu-

uproar. The avowed Anarchist dele

and several of them had TO be elected
