Why the Regular Pugilist Finds IL
Difficult to Whip Them

The summary manner in which Sill
Ivan was whipped by waiter last
week has raked up "reminiscences
among New Workers Of barroom fight
erS Of decade ago. who always look
eel upon a pGgiliSt as an easy prey
says the Sun. There was 1T least half
Il dozen men in different sporting re-
sorts in this city Il few years ago who
considered it great opportunity when
they could pick i fight with a famous
pugilist. and they invariably came off
yictOrs For twenty years Larry
. Rrien. who was ar undersized. con-
sumprive-lOoking man would jump at
prize fighters throat on the slightest
provocation. and he always made it a
point to pick a quarrel with the slug
gers he met about town at night. None
Of these barroom fighters or profession
al bouncers would have a living
change witha p ugilist in a ring and
the success they all had out of the
ring has given rise TO the belief that
that prize fighters are not able TO de-
fend themselves under ordinary con
ditions against the assaults Of profess
sional toughs. 1t is very largely qnes-
ton of environment. The bouncer is
at home in his saloon. seldom drinks
and always knows what he is about
II prize fighter is in the saloon the
chances are that he is more or less in
toxicated. Boxers are taught so care
fully to avoid fouling that they fight
fairly as am after Of instinct, no matter
how much under the influence Of lio-
or they may be. The barroom sluggers
on the other hand, resort to every dis
reputable trick known in guerrilla
warfare, from butting to scratching,
biting and kicking their antagonist.
All OF this is on the authority of ia
nous boxing instructor, who believes
the public is in a condition Of rabid ex.
element over the defeat Of Sullivan
by rank outsider.

The Bride and Groom Unable to Say why
They Attracted So Much Attention.
One stormy day recently handsome
carriage came dashing down Fifth ave-
nue., New York, with yard of white
ribbon flying at the pole, says a cor
respondent of the Pittsburgh Dispatch.
Everybody paused long enough to take
a second look at it, and every body who
did saw more white ribbon tied in the
door handles. AS it went by the cab
men congregated in front of the Fifth
Avenue hotel turned and stared, and
the gentlemen loungers within rubbed
their noses against the plate glass at
the curious sight. Behind the carriage
and pendant from the axle swung a
dainty white kid slipper by a white
ribbon. And the wind blew and the
snow and rain swept by in vicious
gusts, and the mud and water splashed
the white ribbon and f1ecked the deli
cate little slipper; but the bright
young couple, snugly wrapped to the
chin on the back seat, were blissfully
unconscious of all. 1t is possible they
may have wondered how everybody
seemed to know that they were just
married and on the way to the railway
station for the happy wedding tour.
Perhaps they marveled that one car
riage on Fifth avenue among SO many
should attract so much attention and
why everybody smiled and beckoned
to his fellow and smiled again. Were
married. was thus Haunted in the face
of all New York. The street urchins
shouted wild approval as the car
riage passed, and some of them yelled:
t'Git on to the bride!" "Baby miner
"Oh, my eyesl'' "Good-by, darlinglo
and SO on, after the fashion of the
gamin world, while the big black
coachman on the box grinned from be-
hind his rich astrachan livery and was
the envied of his kind. If that young
couple entertained any doubts as to
the reason for all these unexpected
demonstrations they were probably
duly enlightened when they reached
the station. Their friends who sent
them thus gayly heralded on their
wedding journey possibly enjoyed the
joke better than the newly made bride
| and groom.

Feeding.


Feeding.
The black bear and the grizzly must
be closely alike in their manner OF
feeding, according to the descriptions
given by Mr.. Roosevelt in his book,
s'The Wilderness Hunter" He once
watched a black bear for half an hour.
AT first, he says. the fellow was stshuf-
fling along and roofing in the ground,
SO that he looked like a great pig.
Then he began to turn over logs and
stones to hunt for insects, small rep
tiles and the like. A moderate sized
clap of his paw and then plunge his
nose into the hollow to gobble up the
small creatures beneath.
''Big logs and rocks he would tug and
worry at with both paws. Once, over
exerting his clumsy strength, he lost
his grip and rolled clean on his back.
Under some of the logs he evidently
found mice and chipmunks; then, as
soon as the log was overturned, he
would be seen jumping about with
grotesque agility and making quick
dabs here and there, as the scurrying
little rodent turned and twisted, until
at last he put his paw on it and
scooped it into his mouth.
probably when he smelt
the mice underneath-he would eau
tiously turn the log over with one paw,
holding the other lifted and ready to
strike
The grizzly, too, Mr.. Roosevelt says,
is at most times "a grubber in the
ground, an eater of insects, roots, nuts
and berries. Its dangerous fore claws
are nominaly used to overturn stones
and knock rotten logs to pieces, that it
may lap up the small tribes of dark
ness which swarm under the one and
in the other.
''It digs up the camas roots, wild
onions and an occasional Iluckless
woodchuck or gopher. When food is
plentiful bears are lazy, but commonly
they are obliged to be very industrious,
since it is no light task to gather
enough ants. beetles, crickets, tumble
bugs, roots and nuts to satisfy the
cravings of SO huge bulk.
1.-The true time of plenty for bears is
the berry season. Then they feast
ravenously on huckleberries, blueber-
ries, kinnikinic berries, buffalo ber-
ries, wild plums, elderberries and
scores of other fruits. They .often
smash all the bushes in a berry patch,
gathering the fruit with half-lux-
urious, lf-laborious greed, sitting on
their launches and sweeping the ber-
ries into their mouths with dexterous
paws.
$50 absorbed do they become in their
feasts that they grow reckless and feed
in broad daylight, while in some of the
thickets, especially those of the noun
tain haws, they make so much noise
in smashing the branches that it is
comparatively easy matter to approach
them unheard."

Washington, Dec. 5.-Germany has
taken the initiative step toward cur
failing the importation OF another
American product. In the proposition

mously increase the duty on cotton seed
oil. The proposition is To increase the
present duty which is /. TO $50 equiva-
lent to duty Of $50 per cent, aud as
the proposition is supported by the
combined agrnriau and protection in
dustrial parties there cun be little
doubt that II will succeed. The sub
iect Is treated at length In n report To
the state department by United States
Consul Merritt, at Bremen. He says
that the future cotton seed oil and oil
nuts and seeds viii pay a high duty.
The raising Of the duty is supported by
the report that Its use for food pur-
poses rose from 10000 pounds in 1885
to over 600 900 pounds IN 1898.
by means OF simple processes OF re-

acts was also passed.
Richardson, OF Tennessee, called up
the conference report on the printing
bill. The report was adopted. Outh-
waite presented n special order for the
consideration OF the railway pooling bill
each day after the morning hour until
disposed Of. The order was agreed to
without division. The object OF the
bill is To authorize competing common
carriers. subject to the provisions OF the
Interstate commerce act, To enter into
contracts for the division OF their gross
or net earnings and 90 secure the more
expeditions and efficient enforcement OF
that law. Applications for pooling, to-
gether with copiesOf the extracts, must,
according 10 the terms OF the BILL be
filed with the commission, and unless
dlsapproVed become operative twenty
days after filing. Another section re-
quires from the railroads answers to all
questions asked by the commission,
with fines for default. Patterson, Of
Tennessee, dwelt at length on the OPP
pressiveness OF Illegal rate cutting for
the benefit OF the packing companies
at Chicago. That combine. he said. ham
died In dollars more beef than the en-
tire cotton crop OF the United States
amounted to. Rates made for these COR
porations practically drove small COM
petitors from the field and fixed the
price OF every bullock on every farm
in the south and west. Under the pres
ent law ne said IL was impossible to
secure convictions for violations Of the
ant-pooling section, because both par
ties to the cut rate were equally guilty
before the law and one could not be
made TO testify against the other. The
pending bill would compel testimony,
and did not aim at the punishment of a
clerk or agent, but OF the railway COM
pany itself. Cannon did not think ad-
ministrative functions and RESPONSE
bilities should be shouldered onto the
courts. but that revoking of pooling
arrangements should be within control
OF the commission.
