w. G. T. q. Fruit and Flowers.

Again from this Mission there comes
q call for fruit and flowers. Today will
b the last day of this work for the
season, and it is hoped that it will be
q kind of red letter day for those who
have come to look on Saturdays as days
of blessing.
Will not the generous public kindly
heed this request for enlarged effort and
respond with fruit? Apples, pears, any
kind, will be gladly received. The COM
mittee will be at the rooms, So Oak
street, through this forenoon. In this
connection we would say, as we have
said before, that if one has no fruit, by
the spending of twenty-five cents liz its
purchase he would be a happier man,
aud there would be happier men and
women among the recipients of the gifts.

hotel. Mr.. Corbett attracted great deal
of attention from the bystanders and the
guests of the house.
After dinner Corbett received few call
ers and discussed at considerable length
Fitzsimmons, his recent fight and challenge
for championship honors. The champion
still takes the ground that Fitzsimmons has
not yet earned.the right to spar in heavy
weight class and he cannot take notice of
his challenge until he has had # contest
with O'Donnell who now has challenge
out for FitZsimmons. u see." said Corbett
that Sullivan and Il ilrain and the Olympic
club fellows are saying that / must fight the
champion middleweight or give up my title.
Now what they say cuts mo figure in these
negotiations.ssIt is what the champion, who
ever he may be at the time, says. When l
challenged Sullivan for the championship
he dictated the terms. l had TO do what he
said. His word twas law as to time, place,
club and stakes And besides all that, |
was in his class. Here is middleweight,
and do not deny that.he Is good one but
a lniddleweight. mind you-who challenges
me and expects me to come to him or give
up the championship It's absurd. Let him
have go with O'Donnell. who has money
up. and then we will talk, that is, provided
Fitzsimmons wins, which is by no means
a probability.
Corbett further said that he would come
out in letter to Fltzsmmons today in an
swer to the challenge. In the afternoon
hestook a two hours spin on his bicycle,
riding out to Rigby among other places and
expressed himself as much pleased with the

One Man For Whom Death by Drowning
Had No TerrOrs.
II can only rNall one experience in
which I may be said to have faced death"
said T. B. Bryan. THAT was during vOy-
ago across the Atlantic several years ago.
We had been out two or three days and
had been having some pretty rough wealth
er. 1t eliminated one night in terrific
storm. The waves rose mountain high,
and our ship was tossed about like cork.
A portion of the upper deck was carried
away, and some of tho saloon partitions
were stove in. The noise made by the
waves as they dashed against the sides OF
tho vessel sounded like the booming of
cannon, and many Of the passengers
crouched in their cabins, waiting in NOR
tai terror and expecting every moment to
feel the ship sinking. was confined to
my cabin by illness, but as had been as
sured by the captain that there was no
danger l did not share the fear Of my fell
low passengers. However, had the storm
continued in its fury or had the boat been
less stanch we would in all probability
have been food for fishes or have had to
rely on the meager support of the small
boats. A fellow passenger evidently had
sublime faith in the captains ability to
pull her through or was exceedingly indif-
ferent to his fate. In the midst of the up
roar caused by the dashing waves, the
breaking of timbers and the outcries of
the passengers he lay peacefully in his
cabin, sound asleep. He was an inveterate
snorer and during the lulls the music OF
his nasal organ could be heard with reas-
surfing regularity. His wife rushed in the
cabin, crying 'Lucien, oh, Lucien, the
vessel is sinkingl'
''Lucien turned over, partially awoke
and murmured: Sinking, are we? (Snore.
Well, let her (snore) sink. What are you
tsnore) going to do (snore) about it?'
His wife said afterward that his view
of the situation treasured her more than
anything else could have done. "-Chicago
