to extract the guineas from the swells,
the tofrs and the supporters of the noble
art Of seif-defense." A program had to
be secretly arranged, a special train had
to be secured for the army Of men, the
swells about town and the scum of the
metropolis. who lived upon the excitement
or the peif Of prize fights. There was q
certain official countenance to these illegal
mills The editor Of Bells Life in Lon

occasions. This was the organ Of the prize

to receive for valuable consideration the

keep open as long they liked. Races
were run In the Haymarket at 3 o'clock
in the morning and about or the
"swells." all in evening dress, would
assemble at the railway station, each one
in charge Of a specially appointed protector.
The scene at the railway station was In
describable. The officials made themselves
scarce and the station was handed over to
mob law. On the platform the pocket of
every unprotected man or youth was
emptied and when the train started amidst
q chorus of obscenity and blasphemy no
one knew the destination. 1t might be a
deserted chalk pit or an old quarry or a
lonely wood or river marsh. Suddenly
the train would stop and away went the
excursionists tramping over field and
meadow. The principals were muffied up.
The attendants carried the ropes and
stakes and when the ring was pitched
every one who had a sovereign left was
f1eeced to buy the colors of the favorite-a
silk handkerchief that could not have cost
pence.

A Chinese Banquet.

From the st. Louis Globe-Demecrat.
Il once attended a swell Chinese ban
ouet and was not a little surprised at the
way In which some OF the delicacies were
served" said Walter +. Logan OF Sacra-
mento. Cal. at the Laclede last night
after We had discussed the more sub
stantial portion OF the repast and des-
s.rt was being served, oranges were placed
before each guest, the skins OF which had
apparently not been broken.yet from which
the pulp had In some mysterious manner
been removed and four five different
kinds OF Jelly substituted I'm its place. The
guests expressed a good deal Of astonish-
ment as TO how such an operation had
been accomplished. but their amazement
vas only increased when a dish of eggs.
the shells of which appeared to be per
fectly whole was placed upon the table.
Examination showed the contents of the
eggs had been removed and the shells fill
ed with nuts and candy. Our host smiling
ly refused to tell us how such wonderful
results had been accomplished. and We left
the house completely mystihed."

The brewers then deemed IL absolutely re-

fact that they were made heavy and

Now they have TO be made heavy and extra

though the governors friends in this
state were strong adherents Of Cleve-

contributed largely to his nomination.
he earnestly desires the success Of Hill
in New York and hopes the president
will soon make public q declaration in

He says: "Hin deserves the active

nomination for governor. and the politi-
cal significance Of the campaign in
New York" He said he had learned
from a perfectly reliable source that
Senator Hill had done all in his power
to dissaude Maynard from being a
candidate and he had told him defeat
was inevitable If his name was placed
on the ticket, But his colleagues on
the bench thought otherwise.
