half an hour later both had been patched up by tbeir attendants, and probably felt about as well as ever. There was no disturbance Of any description in the enclosure. The crowd, n fact, was much better be- hayed than the average assemblage at political meeting, and it was q regular Sunday school occasion compared with q football match be- tween rival college teams. There was some uproar when the decision of the referee was announced, but scarcely more than most of us have heard at baseball game when the umpire decided a point against the home club.
 There is nothing refined about prize fighting, and the sport pre- sents few attractions for persons who have had their natural angles made smooth by culture and associ- ation with cultivated people, but it is not inherently vicious, and no more demoralizing than any other kind Of rough athletic exercise. When we undertake, therefore, to stop it, we should be honest enough to face the whole question, which is: Shall we forbid all sports at which hard characters may eongregate and in which the participants may get hurt?
 1t certainly does beat the band how people who cheer themselves hoarse at a football match in which life and limb are constantly imperil- ed, will go away and rail at the brutalities" of the prize ring. Where one man is seriously injured in the ring, a dczen are mangled on the gridiron
 It's a mighty poor rule of conduct that won't work except in special cases.
 The anti-prize fight crusade repre- sents much the same kind of moral fly that refuses to the poor man q chance to buy a glass of beer on Sunday and allows the rich man to guzzle his fill at hotel or restau- rant.

 A Attorney-General Trustworthy de- cdes that President Moose of the Senate is in fact Lieutenant-Gover- nor, the Senate having adjourned without eleeting President pro tempore It was no fault of Mir. Moose that selection was not made. An effort was made on the day pre- yious to adjournment to elect a President pro tempore, but failed, and on the day of adjournment, when it became apparent that no extension would be had, a asystematic effort was made by certain Senators to prevent the election of such an officer, and they succeeded in their Arkansas Eemoer3t
