OF course Jim Corbett is one of
the most steady men that ever
engaged in the pugilistic business.
He has never met defeat and does
not want to. He is fully awake to
the fact that no matter how good a
man he is, he may by some tluke,
if not by superiority be knocked
out in an encounter with the big
black. There is no denying the
fact that he is a first-class man
and as brave as they are made: but
he has too wise a head for a pug.
He has rounded in a nice sum of
money and well knows how to
care for it. His whole ambition is
to leave the roped arena without
meeting defeat and we have come
to the positive conclusion that it
is a settled fact in his own mind
that he will never face an opponent
for real prize fight again.

In reply to the Olympic Club Of
New Orleans, to put up purse Of
$4,000 for Bob FitZsimmons and
Jim Corbett to fight for, also to
deposit $4,000 with the Police
Gazette to be paid should they
fail to carry out the agreement,
Corbett was asked by the Sporting
Life representative for an answer.
Corbett would not accept or refuse
the offer. Finally the American
champion said az shall say moth
ing until | return to New York"
Sporting men in England are
surprised at his not accepting, as
the purse is the same amount he

Sullivan.

WILL THEY FIGHT
It Is Not Believed Corbett and
Jackson will fight

That many believe the big fight
between Corbett and Jackson is of
for good, cannot be denied. The
men cannot agree, says the st.
Louis Sporting News, and it seem
an utter impossibility to secure a
battle ground satisfactory TO all
concerned. There is a great deal
more money in this bluffing at
fighting than can be earned in an
encounter in the roped arena. We
positively believe that Corbett will
never enter the ring again for the
purpose of fighting finish fight.

If we have arrived at the correct
conclusion (and we have every
reason to believe that we have,
from a recent letter received from
London), we consider it Corbett's
duty to come out publicly with
the announcement. If he does in
tend to fight again there is one man
that he must meet before all others
and that is the man who has for
months been eXpectantly waiting
for June to keep his agreement.
The drawing Of the color line
putting off the fight and trying to
make Jackson fight where the
original articles particularly
stipulate the fight shall not take
place, will only cause the public
to believe Jim is trying to work
the universe. Get on or of your
perch Corbett, and let the people
know your pugilistic intentions.
While your career is a public one
and the public are filing your
Golfers, let them know what they
are over anxious to know. Are
you going to fight again or not?

The Tailor's Argument.

In "Thrums" lived q merchant tailor
who ordered from friend, a book agent,
a complete set Of an encyclopedia which
was being published in monthly parts.
All went well till tho delivery of the last
volume, which proved to be about one
half larger than any Of the others. Deliv-
cry was refused on the ground that the
volume was not according to sample and
broke the uniformity Of the set. Mr..
Comrie Thompson was then acting sheriff
substitute for Forfarshire, and the result
ing case came before him. The plaintiff
stated his case, and Mr.. Thompson then
advised the defendant to take delivery,
adding:
"Now, Mr., don't be foolish If the
book is larger, they don't propose to charge
you anything extra, and you ought to
consider you are having a bargain"
"Well," pleaded the defendant, I'm q
tailor, and if your lordship were to order
coat from me, and I quoted price and
afterward delivered the coat half size
bigger than you wanted it, you would, ]
have no doubt, refuse delivery. And
might then say; Don't be foolish, sheriff
The coat, it's true is much larger than
you want, but the 10th Is the same, and
Iwon'tmake any extra charge. You ought
to consider you are having bargain. "
This rather tickled the court, which ex.
pressed its appreciation Of the point some
what noisily. Verdict for the plaintiff,
with costs.--London Tit Bits

Rules for Voters to Follow

If you wish to vote for the candidate
for mayor of one party, the candidates
for the other city officers of another,
and the candidates for aldermen and
supervisors of third party, you must
simply make crosses after-tO the right
of the names of the candidates you de-
sire to vote for.
If you wish to vote for all the candi-
dates of one party mark an y In the
square of that party's column.
If you are voting for all the candi-
dates of one party except one erase his
name and put an Y after the CORES
ponding name in another column.
In voting "split" tickets, mistakes
will be avoided by making cross in
the square to the right of each candi-
date for whom the voter desires to cast
his ballot, and drawing his pencil over
the corresponding name of the candi-
date he does not wish to vote for; but
all this marking and erdsing is not re-
qplsite except as a safeguard against
error The rule first given above is
sufficient if properly observed.
Five minutes time will be allowed to
each voter for marking his ballot. I'm
official ballots or memnraI da to assist
the voter in marking his ballot may be

mind of the Americans there interest-

a British war ship. AS it happens the
British vessel is the flagship of the

The Shame of Breckinridge.

Not in modern history has there
been an instance Of more sudden
and shameful fall of public charac-
ter than has been precipitated by the
Breckenridge case Not twelve
months since the name of W. c. p.
Breckenridge WAS held in high honor
throughout the country. Born of
distinguished lineage, bred in the So
ciety Of honorable men and pure
women, possessed of a fine scholar
ly mind, endowed with the rare gift
of genuine oratory, and with a not
able public career, extending over
many years, he appeared to be man
to DE admired and envied above his
fellows
Within week the story of a libidin-
Gus, hypocritical life, with it's hideous
accompaniment offalsehood, treach-
cry and cowardice: told in the pres
ence Of the Nation, has robbed w
C. P. Breckenridge of every claim to
respect, while the defense as outlined
for him by his attorney exposes him
to the contempt Of mankind.
A contemporary says that the ex-
cuses made for him prove Mr.. Brock
inridge the meanest man that ever
lived except Adam. The exception
does injustice to the Kentuckian's
great prototype. When Adam real.
lied the sin he had committed be
went and hid himself in the company
OF his wife. Mr. Breckenridge sought
the company of another wife and by
every means in his power has tried &c
Olacken the name of the woman with
whom he enjoyed illicit relations fol
ten years.
His plea that ''the woman gave
me of the tree and | did eat" is the
last ditch of a man who has dragged
his manhood through a slough Q
lust, lies and sanctimonious hypo
crisy Before submitting it TO tht
court and the American people h
