that it is impossible TO get the fight ON in

"The articles signed by jackson and
myself call for the fight to take place in
America, and the fact that | have said I

chance in America has given Parson
Davies an opportunity 10 make one of his
characteristic bluffs. He is now bubblipg

no chance OF a fight.

GREAT VITALITY or sNAlLs.
One at the Smithsonian Lived without
Food and Water 10. Six Years.

One at the Smithsonian Lived without
Food and Water fo< Six Years.
The Smithsonian institution has hit
upon something extraordinary in
snails. The creatures may be slow,
but they hold the record over all other
animals for prolonged vitality under
adverse conditions. Stories of toads
dug out OF rocks in which they had
been imprisoned for ages are apocry-
phal, but recent discovery, says the
Providence Journal, has established
the credit of this humble mollusk as
No. / in tenacity of life. Only the
other day a specimen from an island off
the coast of Lower California, inclosed
in drawer with part of the mollus-
can collection, was foundt o be alive. 1t
had had no food or water for more than
six years. When placed in a box with
moist earth it protruded its foot, began
to move about and seemed to be as
well as ever. Some time ago few
Snails of a different species, gathered
in Mexico, reached the Smithsonian in
stitution and were placed in box.
They remained undisturbed for two
years and three months, at the end of
which time they were put into glass
jar with some chickweed and small
quantity of tepid water. Pretty soon
they woke up and appeared quite ac-
tive
Pond snails, which are sometimes
found alive in logs of mahogany from
Honduras, possess equal endurance.
Specimens carried from Egypt to Paris
packed in sawdust have arrived unin-
jured. Other kinds have been expert
mented with by shutting them up in
pill boxes and dry bags for years, but
have survived. The limit of their
vitality is yet to be ascertained. Land
snails in cold climates bury themselves
in the ground or under dead leaves in
winter; in tropical regions they become
torpid during the hot season. When
about to start in on period of sleep
they seal up their shells with close
fitting door, which sometimes is a
shield of thin, transparent mucus, and
in other cases an opaque membrane as
thick as visiting card. Behind this
the animal constructs other walls,
which serve like so many partitions to
protect it against prolonged cold or
dryness. 1t is believed that just as
the seeds of plants are distributed by
the winds, so likewise the eggs of
snails are scattered abroad on the
breezes, thus disseminating their
species. They are very prolific ami
mails. Some of the great land snails
of the tropics, which live on trees and
weigh a pound apiece, lay eggs that
look strikingly like those of pigeons,
being quite as large. The eggs are de-
posted among decaying vegetation,
the heat of decomposition Matching
them.

LOVERS vows ON PAPER.
How English Newspaper Proposes to
; Simplify Breach of Promise Suits.

How English Newspaper Proposes to
Simplify Breach of Promise Suits.
The London Spectator, moved by the
painful spectacle of the modern
breach of promise case, proposes a
novel expedient in order to overcome
-the difficulties which such suits pre-
sent. 1t says: There would be one
very simple method of tightening the
task Of the jury, which would also
afford to young women and their
guardians a means of ascertaining
whether the lover had any serious in
tention of developing into husband
or not. Let no promise of marriage
be held valid unless it is made in writ
ing npon properly stamped paper. If
Vthe plaintiff could produce formal
promise of this kind, there would be
no need to go into all the history of
a doubtful courtship, or to consider
any other factor in the assessment of
damages than the respective incomes
of the contracting parties. OF course
1t will be objected that such prOpo-
sition is injurious to all the romance
of courtship and marriage. But where,
we would ask, is the romance in nine
ont of ten breach of promise cases that
find their way into the law courts?
These cases are hardly ever brought
except by people whose affections
have not been deeply engaged in their
acceptance of a suitor. For one young
woman who now brings an action for
breach of promise at least nine are
Tilted and suffer in silence. The
more their affections have been en-
gagged the less they can bear to tell
the pitiful tale of their disappoint-
ment and witness the poor little
romance of their life exposed to the
ridicule and laughter of an un-
sympathetic world. If it once became
understood that the ardent lover
should offer such a proof of his good
faith, then girl would know well
what to expect from a lover who with
held it. At any rate, parents or
guardians of the lower and middle
classes would not allow young man
to grow ''too particular in his atten-
tions''-as their phrase runs-un unless he
showed disposition to furnish this
guarantee. Then, if the promise were
unfulflled, even the most modest and
sensitive maiden could proceed
against her faithlesslover without loss
of pride or dignity.
