just Arrived from England and Says
Jim VIII Talk, Too. When He
Gets Here shortly.

NEW YORK, July H.-W. A. Brady.
manager of champion pugilist Jim Corbett.
arrived to-day by the Britannia. He APP
pears TO be deeply interested in bringing
about a meeting between Corbett and
Jackson.
''Jim has some very pronounced ideas of
Jackson" said he HE does not believe the
Australian wants a finish fight. This is the
reason for all the talk about a twenty
round engagement at the National Sport
ing Club which should be called the jack
son Club" he added, with a sneer "Why.
they are all Jackson people to a man, and
Jim would not have the ghost of a chance.
We know that Davies and Lord Lonsdale
have been in constant communication, and
the former, by guaranteeing a purse of
$4,000 tried to force Jim into a match, but
did not succeed. George Pierre told me that
two men could not fight twenty rounds in
that club unless one was beaten, yet I
saw four drawn battles. 1t is only six
teen-foot ring, and Jim, after looking the
place over told them frankly he did not
like their club or their money and would
not fight there"
But there are no available clubs here
save those in the South" was suggested.
.'Do you expect Jackson to fight there?'
For my part don't know what TO ex-
pect from Jackson. but I'll tell you. as L
started TO. what Jim expects him to do
Brady replied impressively. Jim thinks
jackson will come here, make a grand
stand play about the South and then re-
tire. or else, after a whole lot of talking.
finally agree to fight below the Mason and
Dixon line. Then his manager will say he
has conceded everything to Corbett. Jim
Will fight Jackson anywhere in the United
States and al any time will suit him.
When he gets here he will throw some
turkey talk in Jackson's direction, depend
on that"
How about Fitzsimmons?"
''Oh yes" said Brady, pausing as though
to place the man named. Fitzsimmons
wants TO fight Corbett. eh? Well. Corbett
desires to arrange things with jackson just
at present, but the long one need not be
alarmed about getting shut out. Some
to put him out in four rounds. Fitz cuts
no figure with Corbett He will be attend
ed to in due season.
Brady spoke enthusiastically of the treat
ment shown Corbett in England Ireland,
Holland and France. In Ireland the cham
pion found il extremely difficult to get about
town. The horses were taken from his car
riage in several towns, and crowds drew
him through the streets. This happened
once twice in England, too. Corbett may
go abroad again next season. He has a
says The trip was not as great a financial
success as they expected, but Corbett will
bring back some Bank Of England notes
with him.

CALCULUS OREMATED.
Stevens Boys Indulge I'm Their An

stevens Boys Indulge I'm Their An
nual Saturnalfa of Vengeance.
The tranquility of Hoboken's atmosphere
was disturbed last night with college yells
and death songs, when Calculus, the dire foe
of all collegians, was sentenced to death and
cremated by the students of Stevens College.
The students, preliminary to the incinera-
ton of the dead king of mathematics
parAded through the streets. Inside a sarcap-
hagus was carried a stuffed figure, repre-
senting Calculus. 1t was a tough looking
arrangement and looked as if it ought to be
condemned. Its hair was red, and its fea-
lures positively repulsive.
The trial and execution took place in a
spot on the campus enclosed by ropes. A
platform was stationed in the middle of the
enclosure, upon which stood the Lord High
Chancellor, Fred erick Harris, the attorneys
for prosecution and defence and the jury.
The prosecuting attorney, Lord B. Clark.
Grated awhile on the crimes of the prisoner
in the box. w. Norris, for the defence,
! started In to show why Calculus should be
permitted to escape, but he was ruled out of
order by the L.H.C., and the latter told the
jury to find the victim guilty of all the
crimes on the calendar.
The verdict was announced without the
jury even being boxed up, and the L.H.C.
| sentenced Calculus to death.
The executioners prepared the fire, and
Calculus went up in smoke.

INDIAN MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS

The VIVA, the national instrument of India,
calls up a vision of troops of Nautch girls,
dancing to its music, the little peals OF silver
bells. fastened around their ankles, keeping
time as they glide and whiri. The vinn is a
queer looking instrument 1t is a single bar
ef hollow bamboo. fastened with extended
bird claws, carved from wood to
two empty gourds. The onds of the
bar are often beautifully carved to repre-
cent birds or heads of animals. Eight wire
strings are stretched along the top of the
iIalleW bamboo over a series of movable frets,
and there are three other strings, which
PASS over a single fixed bridge. The player
throws one gourd over his left shoulder and
rasses the other under his right arm, holding
the bamboo ~diagonally across his breast;
The frets are pressed with the left hand, and
the strings are snapped with little hard
strips called plectra, worn upon the first and
third fingers of the right hand Another
beautiful instrument of India is the soors-
ringa. which is shaped something ike q
banjo, although it sounds moro hke a sweet
guitar. 1t is made OF very dark wood, with
q round body, peal shaped at the back, and
a long slender neck. and is beautifully Inlaid
wSsh ivory and pearl. There are eight wire
strings, which are played with a p~lectruln.
The sawed, or East indian guitar, is also a
beauty. both in form and decoration. The
sides and back are very dark green, almost
BLACK, covered with golden figures.-St.

PRANKLIN,s SMILE
A Portrait of the Real Poor Richard
EOnnd in Paris.


One of the historic figures hat | have al
ways hoped to find approximate more close
ly to my own fancy is Franklin. There are
enough portraits Of him; for a dozen busts,
two dozen oil pictures, twice that number OF
miniatures, but all these tell the same story.
Here is q face with strength, with thought,
with worldly wisdom, with ~kindliness, with
contentnlent, with self-control. all in evil
dence, but absolutely without a suggestion
of laughter. Yet the author Of Poor
Richard was q wit, and helped himself and
his generation over many a rough spot by a
clever phrase and a laugh.
A recent fortunate find" of Mr.. George
A. Lucas of Paris in one of the bric-a-brac
shops Of that city, is no less than an entirely
hitherto unknown terra-cotta medallion Of
Franklin. In profile and clearly modelled
from life it most resembles the Mini minia-
ture, but the expression is different, and the
fino rounded head is not hidden by the IA
nous fur cap, which, if it SO pleased the
Parisians of his day, nevertheless took away
SO much of Franklin. What Is more, the
grave expression of the mouth is lacking,
aud in place we see the lips and chin as it
seems to me they must have looked when
Franklin was smiling ''insidep and could not
entirely keep 1t there.-Paut L. Ford 'n
