Alaska sable, seal and otter are amepe tho most popular turs for general use.
 There are many ladies who seem to have Q mania for silk Innings. Whatever the outside of tho dress may be, the lining is of silk
 A popular fancy Is tho use of Persian lamb and seal; also seal and srmine, the latter being exceptionally elegant fer very dressy wear.
 Lace sleeves over silk arc pretty and popular It takes a full yard of lAce for each sleeve, the lace only covering the puff and rarely being used on tho cuff portion, as 1t Is So liable to wear.
 Some new petticonts are of satin. with narrow bias ruffies bound with the mate rial Others have ruffles with bright rib bon stitched on As binding, and enc spe. with velvet
 Beaver Is a popular fur. In golden brown, yellow and tho natural color it is very much liked and is combined with other furs- As rule, however, combina' tons in this material must be very care. fully used to be effective
 An uimported skirt of black moire has . lining and dust rufiies of old rose taffeta lined with cardinal taffeta, with Q dust rIffie made of double rows of black and cardinal taffeta with pinked edges.

His hair was long and flowing, and it would have been difficult to say whether he was poet or musician at first blush. After blushing several times, however, the casual observer would have about concluded from the air about him that he was q musician. Somehow the air Is more distinctly defined in music than 1t is in poetry anyhow.
 The young woman in the case was clearly literary. Her hair was in Q slump and her cuffs looked as if they ought to have the hose turned on them.

Corbett Is now pursuing tho same course with me that he did with Jackson. He Is 6odging tho issue. He will fight at no place but Iacksonville-this, too, in tho faco of recent enactment which makes boxing illegal in Florida. We can't contest there. Corbett won't go to New Orleans, where there is a chance to pull tho contest of. He won't go to Mexico and battle for the $50, 900 purse offered by the Edison kinetoscope people. In word. he won't battle anywhere on earth unless compelled by public opinion to do so. I sincerely hope that that opinion will be voiced in no uncertain sound before my auburn locks turn gray
 The recent casualties in the ring de plorable as they are. will not stop boxing. The rightful acquittal of Kid Lavigne of all responsibility for Bowen's death at New Orleans and the consequent impetus given to boxing in northern clubs prove that Poor Bowen s death was @ sheer ac- oident Had the floor of the ring where his head bumped with fearful force been padded Andy would have been alive to. day Big hearted, genial, fun loving Con R!ordan-GoG bless himi-was liable 60 drcp dead from apoplexy as any time in or out Of a ring The autopsy proved shAs pcoI Cor was sociahle to 6 fault and loved the wine cup and jolly companions too well The night of the casualty at Sy.a cuse a.d not hit my partner hard enough tc hurt ohild. He was In no condition to box, and by agreement we both played very light so lightly Indeed thnt the audience hissed us. Con Riordan died ot congestion of the brain, caused by alcoholic drink and net from any blow received
 A word in conclusion. As to my en- counters, no mag IT sound physical condi- tion. barring accident can be killed in any such contest. Eminent authorities like Dr William F Shrady. Dr John Wilson Gibbs, Or. G. w Jacobus, Dr. Maurice ! Levi and J w Tufts agree upon ;h.s When a man Is killed. IL IS found that some vital organ is defective. CT else he Is dispatched by some unlocked for accident Ike that which befell Bowen At New Orleans Such accidents are very rare The percentage of deaths iE the ring ls rot one-terth as great as that occurrir 8 ir football. and the record of permanent injuries does not begin to approach that of baseball wrestling and other games Why. thea. discriminate against boxing when other and more dangerous sports are per mitteds If Corbett and your humble servant ever meet Ir the ring, will wager every dollar l ever hope to see that neither of us is even seriously hurt. not to say killed or permanently injured, and we will do our p-ettiest at that to win quickly and decisively Why Because we are both sound healthy men and will be In the pink of condition If we face each other. Besides-and say it without vanity-we are both too clever tc reserve the full force oi blow That Is where sciencs comes in in the event of our meeting I firmly believe thae barring accidents.

 It will depend in great measure upon the att.tGde of James J. Corbett whether CT uot Lcxing shall remain the premier sport Gf America. To kill 1t outright Is An i'm mposs.ble task, for while there flows Q drop ot English, Scotch, Irish or Welsh blood in the veins of men the game Is sure tc eId2re. The passion for strife Is inher- sns in man-at least in tho races speak of-anl boxing Is tho most natural and least harmful outlet for it. The sport be- gHu away back in tho Grcclan era, when even kings Gonned the cestus. or a g!ove hke it-they called it by a different name --and eontended manfully for tho laurel wreath of victory, and that sport is suro to continue until the end of time.
 Tho progress of tho game, however, can be checked for a time and it's popularity made to wane. This hinges largely upon tho actions of the principal actors in tho pugilistic play. If champions won't fight, but rather translate themselves Into writ. CTS, orators and actors, why certainly the play is sure 10 drag along drearily and public interest become dormant.
