A FALSE ALARM.

Newspaper Men Not TO BE Discrimin-
atcd Against by Cleveland.
WASHINGTON, March IA report
that Mr.. Cleveland had told congress-
men that he did not intend to appoint
newspaper men to Office for the reason
that he might be accused of subsidizing
the press, does not hold good. Congress-
men Dockery, De Almond, Cobb, Burns
and Morgan of Missouri, called on the
president for the express purpose of as
certaining the truth about the mo
journalist need apply" rule. Mr.. Dock
cry asked President Cleveland point
blank wheter it were true or not that he
had Disseminated against newspaper
men and the answer came Just as
straight as the question, that there was
no such. intention. From this and
other statements made by the president
the delegation went away satisfied that
the story had arisen through some mis-
construction of other statements, and
Mr.. Dockery is very firmly convinced
that the report arose from a remark
attributed to Postmaster General Bis
sell in substance that he would not give
postoffices to editors.

There Will BE No More Big Fights
In New Orleans.

There Will BE No More Big Fights
I'm New Orleans.
New ORLEANS, March Ia. -Pugilism
is done for in New Orleans. The mem
bers of the Crescent City club will go
into their pocket. and Fitzsimmons will
not get $37 500 just yet. He will get
S15, 900 or 5000 cash. all that is avail
able, and good paper for the balance.
There will be no more contests in the
Crescent City club ring, and perhaps no
more in that of the Olympic club,
though the Bowen Burke match is
scheduled for the first week in April.
The clubs will go at general athletics
and rowing. and die unless their social
sides are strong enough to bear the
financial loss of such shows. which have
long ago ceased to pay in richer towns
than New Orleans. The women of the
city are organizing an anti-pugilistic
leagae, al they did an anti-lottery
leage, and the leading papers ~editorially
denounce the contests. The next legis-
lature does not meet until May, 1894,
and the city authorities are with the
clubs. Both Presidents Noel and Dick
son are members of the city council.
But the best opinions here are that
neither club will fly in the face of pub
lie opinion, and that pugilism in New
Orleans is done for.

JUST ABOUT TO FALL.

Have you seen the happy mother when the
babe begins TO talk?
Have you seen her teach the tiny tangled feet
the way tO walk?
Ever near each slender shoulder, yet so feeble
and SO small.
With her ready hands to hold her, when she's
just about to fall.
Shut your eyes. and you can see her in the
baby's childhood days,
When the golden CLEAN of sunset on her tan
gled trcsses plays,
And the mother, though grown older, still is
near enough to call,
With her ready hands to hold her, when she's
just about to fall.
Now the baby IL a woman, and she's bending
DER bed,
Where the spirit from the body of her gentle
mother fled;
AS the lifeless limbs grow colder: "Mother!
Mother" hear her call,
But there are no hands to hold her, and she's
Just about to fall.
Launched alone on life's rough ocean, she is
drifting with the years,
But the voyage is lonely one, and sometimes,
through her tears
She can seem to see her mother; she can almost
hear her =,
And by faith she sees another hand to hold her
should she fall.
