Governor Mitchell, of Florida, still most
firmly declares that there will be no prize
fight, or glove contest, in the State of
Florida, between Corbett and Mitchell.
If the Governor fails from any cause to
prevent the fight, he will be the laughing
stock of the country. The prize ring will
vaunt itself as invincible, and prize pu-
gilism, with its degrading tendencies,
will be nightly encouraged. While there
may be great interest in every mans
mind in the cOntest-even indeed in the
minds of the best citizens of the country
certainly the best citizens will be willing
for the sake of civilization and decency to
lay aside that desire to know which ia
the better man, and to uphold the Gov
ernor in all he may do to prevent the mill.

In the Pittsburgh gas field wells are
being dug to depth of 22OO feet. At
this depth strong flow of gas has been
found and it is the opinion Of the Scien-
itfie American that the supply, contrary
to recently exploited theories, has not
given out, but is practically inexhausti-
BILE.
A YOUNG man in neighboring coun-
ty advertised for wife, and his sister
answered the advertisement. The young
man now thinks there is no balm in ad-
vertisements, and the old people think it
pretty hard to have two fools in one
family

NOT EXACTLY NEWS.
A Few General Remarks and Familiar
Reflections

The Noble County Republican rightly
calls attention to the misuse of the word
de. o.. This word means place where
store and freight are kept. All depOts
are stations, but few stations are depots.
The place that people go to for taking a
train is properly station, and not de-
pot. Why not then say station? To
heighten the absurdity of using the
word depot, it is usually mispronOunced.
The word is French, but the common
pronunciation makes it part French and
part English; as dee-po, first syllable
English, second French. 1t should be
pronounced entirely French, da po, or
entirely Anglicized, dee pot.
Speaking of words, the following story
comes in in evidence: In the Monroe
county court this week the case of Doug
lass against Hatcher is being tried for
the second time. During the first trial
in last September, a learned Justice of
the Peace from Malaga was being exam
ined by G. L. Weems, attorney for the
plaintiff. The witness stated the plaint-
iff was sometimes very savagerous."
Savagerous" exclaimed Mr.. Weems;
what do you mean by that?" "Well,
now,' said the J. p, squaring himself,
and evidently getting ready to enter on
prolonged pathological discussion, 81
will tell you. When | was a young
NAM That will do," interrupted
Mr.. Weems. az want to get home in
time to vote" The court room was con-
vulsed with laughter. 1t was afterward
found that savagerous is colloquial
ism meaning vicious.

Paul Bourget wrote as follows on the
American girl in the New York Herald
of yesterday: Precisely because the
young American girl does not turn all
her Imagination around the problems Of
love and sentiment, her character con-
tains more numerous shades than that
Of her sisters in Europe Those latter
await to develop themselves the moment
when their hearts have spoken and
when the influence Of man has com
meneed to shape them. The American
woman exists BY herself, She knows it.
She wills it 50. She is proud Of it, She
has nothing 10 common with the Gslstea
Of the Pagan myth, who receives all
from Pygmslion, from the expression Of
her beauty to the flame of her soul Her
individuality Is already complete when
she arrives at the period Of marriage, as
late IS possible, as / have already said.
Well or i'll balanced, coquette or
sentimental, learned or tomboy, intrigu
ing or simple, the young American girl
is, above all things, a complete little
universe, which has formed, which has
grown outside of all masculine in
huence.
