No Applications for Position are
Answered by Her.

New YORK, Dec. IA Boston
lady few days ago advertised for a
French maid to take charge of her
child and accompany her abroad.
Among those who answered the
advertisement was Miss Madeline
Pollard who achieved notoriery by
suing Congressman Breckenridge
for breach Of promise. Referring
to the matter Miss Pollard last
night said: 81 can't see anything
wrong in answering the advertise
ment. l do not know who got the
letter. The advertisement was
signed by initials only. In
my letter l said l was not French
but that l felt myself capable Of
performing the duties Of governess.

never received a reply. l have
answered a number of advertise
ments in the hope Of receiving en-
ployment but every one has been
a failure"

To Mark the Birthplace of Wash.
ington.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l5--Some
years ago Congress delegated to
the Secretary of State the duty Of
selecting the most appropriate
means of marking Warhington's
birthplace at Wakefield, Va,
soventy-five miles below this city,
Oh the Potomac River, and $1,000
was appropriated for the purpose.
The movement has been delayed
owing to the absence of facilities
for the transportation Of material,
but the complexion Of wharf by
the Government near the site sup
plies this want, and proposals will
be opened today. Secretary Ores
ham has decided that a shaft OF
American granite, high enough to
be plainly visible from passing
vessels, a distance of about five
miles, would be the most suitable
to picture, but it's exact design and
inscription have not yet been des-
ignated,

Following up olsen's Murder.

DULNTH, Mimi, Dec. l5.-The
police are quite reticent about the
clues to Lena Olsen's murder, but
there is no doubt they are on to
something which they consider
good. Detective Hayden went to
Minneapolis Wednesday night to
work it up bit, and expected to
get all information he wanted by
last night. When he went away
there was not much reliance
placed in the clue, but he Telegraph.
ed this morning that he had got
ten new material that would de-
tain him he knew not how long.
This is looked upon as good
omen and hopes have gone up.
The murderer is not supposed to
be in this part of the country. The
new clues have nothing to do with
the Hayward arrests and confess
sions, having come to light in
Duluth within a couple OF days.

DESIRED DELAY.
But Failed to Postpone Final Con-
sideration of the Currency Bill.

slderatlon OF the Currency Bill.
WASHINGTON, Dec. l5.-There
was a spirited incident before the
banking and currency committee
yesterday, when Walker, of Massa-
chusetts, said he understood a pro-
gram had been quietly adreed on
by which the currency bill would
be considered by Democrats of the
committee at night, by full COM
mittee tonight and presented to
the House on Monday. Springer
said this was a mere surmise. All
the committee actually did was to
agree to a meeting Saturday night.
1t being understood that a final
vote on the bill could then be
taken, Walker moved that the
committee reconsider such agree
ment. He protested against un-
due haste over the currency ques-
ton. The motion to reconsider
was voted down by a strict party
division,

DEMPSEY RYAN MILL.
OPINIONS OF THE LEADING SPORTS
AS TO THE, MERITS OF THE MEN.
The Odds are Laid on Ryan and it
is Thought That This May End
Dempsey's Career.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Dec. b.
Tommy Ryan is the strong favorite
in tonight's contest for the weller
weight championship. The feeling
seems to be that Dempsey will sur
render a second championship and
probably end his career in the ring.
There are many who profess to be-
lieve otherwise, but they are not
backing their opinions withamoney.
Dempsey is well below weight and
good and hard, but there are doubts
as to his wind and those who have
talked with him believe that he
has not fully recovered his old
time spirit and cool calculating
head. His methods Of training
since he came to New Orleans have
increased confidence in him. He
took long run last evening and
after returning to his room was
rubbed down. He expects to rest
today Tommy Ryan took no ex-
ercise except an afternoon run. He
is about al. Should he take on
weight today he will 60 for another
short run in the afternoon. Par
son Davis, Frank G. Ives, Captain
Arson, Abe Levy and others visit
ed him and agreed that he was
trained to the hour and in the best
possible condition. Here are some
of the opinions:
Old Tom Carey, of Chicago: 81
have seen both Ryan and Dempsey
and I think the Chicago man will
WIN"
Jim Hall, the Australian mid
dle-weight: 81 consider Ryan the
cleverest man of his class in Amer
lea today. Dempsey probably has
lots Of good stuff in him, and it
will be a question of which man
keeps his head and takes the OPP
portunities that are offered. If
either comes ratified the other may
do him in hurry. Dempsey goes
into the ring at great disadvant-
age"
Tiddy Alexander, who brought
young Critic and George Dawson
from Australia, and is at present
handling Shadow Maber, said {:
"Ryan is a wonder and no mistake.
I was in Mysterious Billy Smiths
corner at Minneapolis and saw
Ryan fight all round Billy who is
mighty good man. l don't be-
lieve he can be whipped"
Baneam McIninerary, the sport
ing writer says: 81 believe Demp-
sey will win"
Sam Fitzpatrick, who trained
Lavigne said: 81 don't believe
Dempsey is the man that he use
to be. He is going backwards
while Ryan has been improving
all the time. will back Ryan"
Choynski said: 81 don't believe
Dempsey could ever box as we'll as
Tommy Ryan does, and Tommy
is stronger and younger. 1t looks
to me like cinch."
That Is the way opinions run:
The confidence of the Chicago men
has had the result of quieting the
the friends of Dempsey. AS a re-
suit there is very little betting.
Frank Ives, Abe Levy and other
Chicago people who were anxious
to back Ryan said they were I'M
able to find takers, Joe Choynski,
Kid Mccoy and ParsOn Davies
will be in Ryan's corner tonight.
Billy Mccarthy and some one yet
to be spoken, will be behind Demp-
sey.
Parson Davies, accompanied by
Ryan and Choynski, will leave
here Sunday for Memphis, where
they will give an entertainment
Monday night.

public good in stimulating the south to
the needs Of education, and that tho
project Of national aid 10 state educa'

Prof Mayo says: "The throo coming
