Being asked recently how he got Shar-
key to agree 70 avoid wrestling in the
forthcoming match, Corbett said
~ demanded that that portion Of the
Marquis of Queensberry rules forbid
ding wrestling be incorporated in our ar
ticles of agreement. Intend to see that
no man will be selected as referee who
will not enforce the rules. l want Mr..
Sharkey warned before we begin fight
ing that if he throws me he will lose
the fight there and then. | don't want
him to pick me up and dash me down
with force enough to knock all the
breath out of me and then to be warn
ed if he does it again he will be penal
lied. He has plenty of time between
now and the day of the battle to famil-
iarize himself with the rules, and
want him to study them until he knows
them by heart, as | do. "-Cincinnati

ON BOARD SHIP
ONE SAILOR SLIGHTLY WOUNDED
IN THE HEAD.
A Big Drunken Row Which Might
Have Been More Serious-Cook and
Mate-The Outcome.

There was drunken row on board
the British ship Troop about 1880
Tuesday night, which came near re-
sulting seriously for sailor who was
shot and for others who received
wounds. AS near as can he learned
bad blood has existed for several days
between the seamen and the mates.
There was a slight squat about 2
o'clock in the afternoon, but it was
handled without serious results.
At night number of the men were
drinking. Several who had been out
returned in liquor. \ difficulty arose
between the second mate of the YES
sci and the cook, and the men sided
with the latter. \ free for all fight
ensued. during which clubs. or any
thing else at hand were used. At the
height of the racket the mate appeared
and the second mate, upon whom the
assault was made, retired to his room.
In moment he came out and fired
Mitchell Diar. sailor, was struck by
bullet on the left forehead. The
ball passed around the scalp, inflict-
ing merely a flesh wound. which is
not dangerous. He was stunned by
the shock and was later removed to
the hospital.
All the sailors and the man who
used the pistol were arrested and
held for investigation. The matter is
now in the hands of the British Con.
sui. 1t is likely that some of the men
will be returned to the ship, while the
principals are held at the station un
til the vessel clears, which may be to-
| morrow.

HORSES THAT RUN RACES.
Some Are Always Ready, and Others Must
BE Trained Hard.

BE Trained Hard.
There is a very important difference
between horses as to the necessary
amount of work to fit them for race.
The great Ramapo, which won for Mr..
Gideon many thousands of dollars, al
ways had to be worked at an enormous
rate before he came to condition. His
owner recently said that he used to feel
sorry for Ramapo when he was being
put through his trials under Trainer
Hyland's orders. They were so severe
that hardly any other horse could have
stood up under them, but they were alb
solutely essential to the great racers
success. The slightest relaxation, and
he went back at disastrous rate The
failure of Ramapo in England this year
is ascribed by Mr.. Gideon to lack of
hard, tireless and unremitting work.
Other thoroughbreds come easily into
condition. In the case of Jere Dunn's
FLY Sunny Slope only three months of
training were required, and none of it
was noticeably severe. Indeed, at one
time III the spring, when Mr.. Dunn had
been away for a fortnight, he found on
his return that his three FLIES were be-
ing worked too rapidly and ordered
their tasks decreased. When he bought
these animals, he had no idea of setting
up racing stable. He happened to be
present at a sale of yearlings, and the
three he has named Sunny Slope, Lady
Eloise and Diana's Daughter were going
at such ridiculously low figure that
he purchased them. When his enthusi-
asm cooled, he began to try to get rid
of his purchases at any price. Once or
twice he offered to give them away to
horsemen of good repute, and finally,
when he discovered that they were on
his hands for good, he put them in
training. Sunny Slope has "won out
the stable several times over, winning
time after time at long odds. we'll back
ed by Mr.. Dunn and his friends. -Ex-

Dear madam;-After leaving dear

have reached to my native land of
Japan, by the ship Coptic, without any
sickness on board the ship, under the
