THE CoRBETT-JAcKsoN FIGHT.
Manager Brady Writes a Letter to
Mr. L. s. Irwin Concerning It.
FL Paso Times

Within the past few days interest in
the Corbett-Jackson fight has been re-
vived. TIE decision of the supreme
court of Texas to the effect that the
present laws against prize fights is void
had led to the proposition to have the
fight here in the opera house. There
are those who have studied the matter
carefully and say that the event would
be worth many thousands of dollars to
the town and that business men can
well afford to guarantee the payment of
the purse.
In this connection the letter printed
below which was received yesterday
morning by Mr.. L. S. Irwin will be read
with interest. 1t shows that Manager
Brady has his eye on FL Paso and that
to brloR the fight here is a possibility
MIR. Irwin ia an acquaintance of Mr..
Grismer who was here a few weeks ago
with 1.-The New South" one of Brady's
shows, and by that means was put il
communication with Corbett's mana
ger. Here ls the letter:

Discussed.
HOT WORDS ON THE SUBJECT

WASHINGTON, D. c., May S.-There
was promise OF an electrical display in
the ssGate when that body met today.
The republicans were active and dis
posed to ask some embarrassing ques-
tions concerning the compromise
amendments" offered to the tariff bill
yesterday.
Senat IT Hoar, of Massachusetts,, spoke
on the bill. The senate was asked, he
| said, to enact in TO law the spasm the
people had got over. The tariff bill
was born of an unnatural union be-
tween the two haareds of section against
| section and that of class against class.
Toward tia close of his speech Mr..
Hoar succeeded in arousing the ire OF
Senator Gray. He wss talking about
the methods used by the so-called con-
| sentative democratic senators to secure
concessions in the form Of higher du-
ties and concluded his statement by de-
clariug the democratic senators who
would support the compromise bill
agreed upon by the democratic caucus
would violate the constitution and their
aths.
This statement brought Mr.. Gray to
| his feet. He demanded to know what
the Massachusetts senator meant by
such charges. The two senator's then
expressed their opinions freely as to
the character Of the policy which the
other represented, and at AS the SEN
ate went into executive session.

THE OLD
A Bit of the Poetry That Has Gone Out Of
Whaling Life.

n D % L the IOcITy INIT mas SOue Ouk Oh
Whaling Life.
The gallant seaman who in all the
books stands in the prov of a whaling
boat waving a harpoon over his head,
with the line shaking out into the air
behind him, is only to be found now in
Paternoster row. The Greenland seas
have not known him for more than a
hundred years, since first the obvious
proposition was advanced that one could
shoot both harder and more accurately
than one could throw. The swivel gun.
like a huge horse pistol, with its great
oakum wad and 20 drains of powder, is
a more reliable but a far less pictur-
esque object.
But to aim with such a gun is an art
in itself, as will be seen when one con-
siders that the rope is fastened to the
neck of a harpOon, ard that as the mis-
sile flies the downward drag Of this rope
must seriously defect it. So difficult is
it to make sure of ones aim, that it is
the etiquette of the trade to pull the
boat right onto the creature, the Prov
shooting up its soft, gently slipping side
and the h]arpOOner firing straight down
into its broad back, into which not only
the four foot harpoon but 10 feet of the
rope behind it will disappear. Then,
should the whale cast its tail in the air
after the time honored fashion of the
pictures, that boat would be in evil case,
but fortunately when frightened or hurt
1t does 40 such thing, but curls its tail
up underneath it, like a cOwed dog. and
sinks like a stone. Then the bows
splash back into the water, the harpoOn-
er hugs his own soul, the crew light
their pipes and keep their legs apart,
while the line runs merrily down the
middle of the boat and over the bows.
There are two miles of it there, and a
second boat will lie alongside to splice
on if the first should Iun short, the end
being always kept loose for that pur-
pose. And now occurs the one serious
danger of whaling. The line has usu-
ally been coiled when ii was wet, and
as it u n out it is very liable to come
in loops, which whiz down the boat
between the mems legs. A man lassoed
in one of these nooses is gone and fifty
fathoms deep before the h%arpooner has
time to say, Where's Jock?" Or if it
be the boat itself which is caught then
down it goes like a cork on a trout line,
and the man who can swim Nth a
whaler's high boots ON is a swimmer in
deed. Many a whale has had a Par
THAN revenge in this fashion. Some
wears AGO a man was wbiSkad ovar with
a blight of rope round his thigh.
George, man, Alec's gone!" shrieked
the boat s~teerer, heaving up his ak to
cut the line. But the harpooner caught
his wrist. INA, na, num-" he cried,
1.-The oil money'll be a good thing for
the widdie." And so it was arranged
while Alec shot on upon his terrible
journey.-A. Conan Doyle in McClure's
Magazine.

THE WONDERS or ATOMS.
even the Smallest speck Visible Contains
Millions of Particles.

Millions of Particles.
There are but few persons outside of
the ranks of the biological students that
have any idea of what is meant by the
expression IAN atom of matter" When
the microscope is applied to the exami-
nation of living tissue. whether that
tissue be of animal or vegetable life, it
is o o observed that all living things
are made up of minute bodies called
organisms" Experts in the various
branches of biological research will also
tell you that no essential difference can
be distinguished. between those cells
which 60 to make up the sum total of
animal life and those which give the
vegetable its existence. These life cells,
although wonders within themselves,
are made up of mlnute PARTICLES called
atoms, which are so small that they
must over remain invisible to the hui
man eye. Some critical reader will say,
If this last remark be true, how can
it be proved that such infinitesimal par
ticles as your SO called atoms exist?"
To this query the reply would be that it
is only when an untold number of these
atoms unite themselves so as to form a
single body, like the grains in a pop
corn ball, that they become at all visi-
BILE and then only by the best appliances
that optical science has been able to
furnish.
This being the case, it is not an exag-
geration to say that every little piece of
matter which we are able to see is built
up of millions upon millions of these
atoms which are so small that no mind
can comprehend their minuteness, even
when taken in aggregations Of thou
sands. There are, of course, many diff
ferent kinds of atoms, such as atoms of
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, etc., each of
which Is believed TO have its own par
ticular size and weight. Then, too,
they probably differ in shape as well as
size. According to the specialists in
this line, they combine together by mu-
tual attraction, which is in some cases
called cohesion and in others chemical
affinity, according as the atoms are of
the different elements. This being the
case it is easy to understand why myr-
shapes, fitted snugly one against tho
other, combine together in varying de-
grees of intensity to build up structures
possessing all the various degrees of
stability and solidity. Some of the most
wonderful theories ever advanced on
the atomic theory are by Sir William
Thomson, the English scientist. In one
of these articles he proves by three diff
ferent trains of arguments that an atom
cannot be greater than the one one hun
dred and fifty millionth of an inch nor
lees than one.fce billionth of an inch.
