Corbett and jackson will probably
meet in the prize ring during the coming
summer, as the forfeit money is already
staked, but the match will probably take
place in England. The difficulties en-
coultered in the preliminsries Of the
Corbett- Mitchell; fight puts a damper on
making any more matches in this coun-
try. The London papers are inclined to
poke fun at Mitchell; that he should con-
fine his efforts to pommeling old men.
He served term Of six months in Jail
some time ago for striking an old man.
Mitchell says Corbett is too much for him;
he IS satisfied on that point. Says he
would not be afraid to meet him again
and might win once out Of dozen times
but he wouldn't bet on it.

Don't Dry Rot.


Madison Outlook:-There is DISPOSE
tion all over the state, and in fact. all
over the country;for business men to cry
"hard times" from the house tops, and to
retreat into their holes and pull their
holes in after them;-in short, to dry up
on the hoof. No surer way could be de-
vised to keep tie times hard. This is Q
psychological panic, the actual condt-
tions do not warrant it and the causes
are purely theoretical. As long as you
talk hard times you will have hard times.
If you have any bargains advertise them.
People can always find little money
down in the old sock for bargains wheth
er they need the article OF not. Don't
dry rot people.

The negroes of the south are making
great educational progress, and The
facilities for such development now
available for them are large and are in
creasing greatly. There are now more
than $500 schools for negroes in the
southern states proper, and in them at
least 2,250.OOO have learned to read, and
generally to write. Last year there were
IN these schools 23s,OOO pupils and 10000
teachers. There are also in the south
$50 schools for the advanced education
of negroes, and seven colleges with negro
presidents and negro faculties.

The river office at Sioux City has COM
pleted series of measurements of the
Missouri river, showing the volume of
water passing between the banks at
various points between Sioux City and
Great Falls, Montana. The test shows
that the volume of water is 90 per cent.
less than in 1878, when the last measure
meats we're taken, and that the volume
Of water is smaller at Fort Benton than
at Great Falls, some distance above.
Many engineers believe that the river
contributes to the artesian basin OF South
Dakota and the lessening Of the volume
of water is due to the artesian wells.

The government is having lots Of
trouble with counterfeiters nowadays,
the latter of whom are combining their
operations to the coinage OF silver dimes,
quarters and half-dollars. The fact that
the coInterfeiters can make the coins of
standard fneness and still realize q big
profit makes the detection of the coins
all the more difficult. A gang of the
counterieiters were run to earth IN Brook
lyn last week. They were Russian Jews
and had several very heavy presses.
Another gang was discovered the next
day in New York city.

It requires but small amount Of men
tai ability and no character whatever to
pursue a course of systematic vilifving
and abuse Of q parsonage over nom-de-
plume. No man ever held the Office OF
president Of the United States of whom
"Siva.'' the Chicago Inter Ocean coward
ly contributor, could not write with
equal abuse IT the freak took him. The
"Siva" letters are despisable in the minds
of all fair-mlnded men and far from
creditable to a newspaper of the Inter
Oceans standing. Were "Siva'' to but
once disclose the true authorship OF the
letters, it goes without SAYING that his
character and animus would be so thor
oughly revealed that he would not care
to write any more ANONYMOUS letters.
The woods are full of editorial writers
who could shut "Siva" up in twenty-four
hours, for it's dollars to doughnuts that
his record would make a black tack
ground for the purity of Clevelands
official career, but Tor obvious reasons
literary poltroons as well as skunks are
sale from molestation.
Since the foregoing was placed in type
the last number Of Town Topics has come
to hand with the following rich scald:
The Chicago Inter Ocean, the greatest
repository of dullness in the United
States has resumed publishing a series OF
articles signed "Siva." They are OF in
describable tediousness, paresis made
adysirdupois. The first series, addressed,
like the present one, to the task OF con-
founding Mr.. Cleveland, had to he
discontinued because eighty-four COM
positols and seven pr00f-readers had been
driven to the lunatic asylum by "Siva's"
disordered slaverings, and there will be
a strike in the composing room il the in
fiction be continued. The Inter-Ocean
idiot pretends that the letters haye been
'ascribed to James g. Blaine, John j. In
gals, Charles A. Dana. A. W. Tourgee,
Roscoe COnkling. Robert q. Ingersoll.
Emory A. Storrs, William E. Chandler,
Joseph B. Foraker, William NJ. Evarts and

The Letcher Blade condensed a good
deal Of wisdom into a little space when
it said recently concerning saloon in
that town: "If.the. people Of Letcher de-
sire to have no saloon here, they need not
haye one." We quote from memory, but
this was substantially the meaning, and
the truth applies to any town in the
state. X the people want saloons they
can have them: II the people desire to
rid the town Of saloons, it can be done.
1t rests With majority Of people.-Woon-
socket News.
Here is practical admission BY both
the Blade and News that the people in
every town in the state regulate the llQ-
uor traffic to suit themselves independent
Of and regardless Of the law of the state
which says there shall be no saloons in
any town. The admission is all the
more noteworthy IN that the Blade and
the News are defenders of the present
prohibition Law.

took fright, and went back to his lair and
resumed his nap with q calm confidence
that no premature warming of the wealth
er would soon disturb HIM. This in
innate relation has existed between the
grounding and the master mechanic Of

the memory of man runneth not to the

consequences. II the grounding finds
his shadow dancing attendance on him
on the glinting snow carpet on which he,
friskily shakes his legs. the weather dis
patcher forthwith arranges the running
card of March to have that train run ON
to the May station, sidetracking April.
II the shadow IS not there, then the
running time of these trains is reversed,
sidetracking March and giving April
right Of way.
This would all be plain sailing-no.

hog and one shadow to look after; but in
the rather extensive range Of territory
occupied by ground-hogs it ls very apt
to occur that a ground-hog in one place
may see his shadow, and other ground
hogs in other places may not see theirs.
This necessarily leads to complications
which must be confusing to the weather
dispatcher and very liable to result in
mistakes. Doubtless it is because of
these intricacles that it occasionally hap
pens that April, running serenely along
on the March schedule, unsuspicions of
danger, gets tail-end telescopipg by

reach its station on time. 1t is just such

henceforth echews all temptations to
