Literary Note from the Century Co.

DR.. Weir Mitchell has been engaged
for several years on a novel which will
give peculiar satisfaction to those who re-
ioice in the able and worthy treatment
Of American life and character in Amer
lean fiction. The story is called Hugh
Wynne, Free Quaker, and will begin as
a serial in the November Century. Those
who have read the manuscript say that
it is not only DR.. M tchell's masterpiece,
but will rank as one of the greatest of
American novels. The scene is Lard in
Philadelphia before and during the Rev
dictionary War and among the chsr c.
tiers are Washington. Franklin Laiay-
cite. Benedict Arnold. and Major An
DIRE. The hero of the story serves on

Miss Julia Breckenridge invites the
pub &c. "Wednesday evening. Aug. 20 at
the Institute building, TO a free entertain
ment given 10y her Physical Culture
class. Friends from the country, by
dropping a line. will have seats reserved.
The herald., 1896-09-13

two men can be sesn from these meas
urements. Corbett's are as follows:
IS CORBETTS STAR SETTING?
Some people who are given to looking
beneath the surface Of things say that
the resignation of Brady is nothing more
than the desertion Of a sinking ship.
In other words, the assert that Corbett
has reached that point where retrogres-
sion sets in. II Corbett should be knock
ed out by Sharkey he would be useless
as q money maker. He never enjoyed
the idolatrous worship showered upon
Sullivan when that giant was in his
prime, yet when the Boston man met
defeat his popularity faded away like
smoke. As q defeated man Corbett
would not have the drawing power Of a
fifth rate actor.
In considering the chances Of the two
men Corbett should be returned a win
ner, provided he has not gone back. If
he Is as good today as when he faced
the mighty Sullivan or the crafty Mitch
ell, according to all ring precepts, he
should vanQuish the former sailor in
Uncle Sans navy. All ring experts
claim, as they have for a century or
more, that science is superior to
strength. Corbett has pounds of science
to Sharkey's ounces, and In strength
the sailor man can lose Corbett.
So on paper 1t looks as If Corbett
should do the trick But there are two
potent and unusual factors which must
be considered In this battle. One Is the
The herald., 1896-09-13

blame Will rest upon the shoulders OF
Corbett, and all the talking and bluff
fling in the world will not clear him of
the charge.
The issue is clearly and sharply de.
lined, and Corbett is too shrewd a man
to attempt any tricks under these con-
ditions. He has already suffered Sc
verely in the opinion of the public, and
as his powers as a stage attraction
have sadly diminished, he finds it nee
essary to do something to revive popu-
lar interest in himself.
There is another reason which makes
the sports believe that Corbett will not
shirk the issue. This is the resigna-
tion of Billy Brdy as the manager of
the big Californian. Brady was q
ehrewd manager, but he did more to es-
tablish and push along the game Of
pugilistic talk than any man in tn.
business He was forever quibbling and
raising petty obstacles wheich were all
right from q money -maing standpoint
but from q sporting view they were all
wrong. Brady insisted upon having the
big end of every thing, and II the other
side insisted upon it's rights he began
the game of talk, and kept it up until
al danger Of the fight coming off had
passed. Brady was in the business SOLE
" for the purpose of making money for
Corbett and himself In this he was
eminently successful. AS sport he
was failure. He has quit the manage
ment Of pugilists, he says, forever, and
this announcement should be greeted
by all clear-cut sports who love the
game for the games sake with tumul-
tuous applause.
Corbett has been so long in the hands
of Brady that he has contracted many
OF the ideas Of the latter Corbett is a
~h w ~ 10 in, hY1f y
IS nevertheless a fighter. He can ba
angered and teased into a mate which
his business sense might argue against.
His temper is hotter than his love for
commercial dickering. and when the
former II aroused he casts the other 10
the winds. When Brady was in the
saddle he kept Corbett in check. Cor
bett could rave and storm as he pleased,
but Brady never allowed the fighters
rage to upset the financial campaign.
With Brady's watchful hand no longer
on the reins, Corbett promises to be-
business schemer.
To pound Sharkey in the chest in the
region OF the heart would not be fruit
ftil policy. His body muscles are won
derful, comparing favorable with those
Of sandow: Sharkeys friends say that
man could hit him on the chest with a
siedge hammer without jolting him. The
waist Of the sailor Is not so well devel-
oped ~ the rest OF his body but Corbett

NOT A ROUGH FIGHTER

rough fighter. This Is not true. The
seeming rourhneas is simply the result
of hts prodigtous strength. After a

A WONDERFUL PHYSIQUE
Sharkey has a peculiar neck. 1t is
seventeen inches around and is triangu-
lar in shape; that Is, It is very broad
at the back and tapers almost to point
in front. Itiis covered with tiny mus
cles, which are as hard as the armor
of a warship. Corbett will have stiff
work to get around this neck and knock
Sharkey out by joltfng him on the point
of the jaw, Not only does his neck pro-
tect him, but the set of his head. which

real prosperity" Let me quote a few
statistics to show the reverend but ig-
norant critic of Mexico some of the good
things which he enjoys, but which his
gold standard denies to us. During the
first six months of the fiscal year 1895-96
the balance of trade with the United or
dependent states of America was S30.-
S22, sos. In. favor of miserable Mexico, con-
sequently Mexico is satisfied and happy
on her silver basis. and wishes the Unit
ed states and Europe to hold on to their
gold one. Selfish perhaps, but eminentIy
practical and profitable for Mexico. The
Boston Advertiser recently addressed
query to the Mexican Herald asking
for an explanation why Mexico pros
pered on free silver basis. This is the
answer given by the paper: This is
easy. Mexicos banks, cotton mills. and
iron foundries pay big dividends, her
railways Increase their earnings, every
willing hand Is employed, there is food
for all. and the everlasting hills Of Mex
leo hold the silver that is to be turned
into dollars which will keep the com
msrcial movement just as active as ever
yn1any years from now. We might add
that our minister of finance leaves a full
treasury and an ample revenue and goes
on holiday into the United States.".
Let us run our intelligent eyes over
these figures and see If we cannot some
day turn them round, for surely this
great and glorious republic that we sing
about and talk about and hold up to
the Srest of the world as the concen-
i trated essence of everything that ia
honorable, prosperous and intelligent.

Rev. Ell Fay imagines her to be in to be

sthe United States in 1896, SIS, ,130, 900;
