CHANGES IN THE MARKET.
Council Committee Considers Som.
Applications.


The joint council committee on pub
lie buildings and markets met yester-
day afternoon and reconsidered the
proposition of Dennis & Co., offering to
pay the city 500 a month rent for the
southeast corner Of the building now
occupied by George Dayton as a cigar
store. Mr.. Dayton, who has heretofore
manifested some reluctance in the mat
ter of paying 1888 month rent, was
present at the meeting to assure the
committee that he would gladly keep
the store and pay the rental agreed
upon. Accordingly the committee was
unable to further consider the PROPOSE
tion Of Dennis & Co.
Market Master Webster informed the
committee that parties desiring to open
bicycle store had offered to pay 500
a month rent for the east end Of the
Market house. exclusive of Dayton's
corner. The committee directed the
market master to accept the offer.

to any further charter tinkering for st. Paul.
W. B. Dean-While l do not consider the

which may not include the good features of
the existing one. and feel that we should
go along with the charter that we have.
the expenses Of running the city government

BROKE A WORLDS RECORD.

W. f. Becker, the speedy Minneapolis
lad, who caused such sensation at the
Velodrome, San Francisco, on Monday,
apparently has not lost the idea of what
speed he is capable Of Yesterday he re-
ceived a new wheel from the east, fitted
with a '96 gear. While trying it on the
track shortly after his arrival, he was
noticed going at such speed unpaced
that several Of the racing men present
held their watches on him. The second
mile of the three-mile stretch was timed
and it was found he had ridden it in ex-
actly 2;lO.
Becker was highly elated over this,
and concluded to make n special trial for
an unpaced mile. After short rest he
made the attempt, timed by several of the
racing men, among whom was G. X. Coul-
ter, holder of the worlds unpaced mile
record. Becker rode the half in So 3-5, and
the mile in 2:o7 2-5. The half-mile mark
is under the worlds record of 80, held
by Gardiner of Chicago.
Coulter was the most enthusiastic of all
over the plucky performance, and obtained
with Hackenberger of Denver for the %
miles unpaccd, the men starting from tho
opposite sides of the track. Hackenberger
has heretofore been invincible i'm this sort
of a race, but Coulter is confident that the
Denverite will find his superior in Becker

STANDING OF THE POLO cLuss.
WHAT CORBETT AND FITZ ARE
DOING.

Corbett's training qu.,rters mt Shaw
hot springs arc so badly crowded that it
was necessary for some of the athletes to
move, and George Green, Dan Hawkins
and Spider Kelly, the two last named
arriving yesterday morning, were com
PEELED to seek another home They picked
out a place at Genoa, small village
about seven miles from Carson.
The most important arrivals Of the day
were Manager William A. Brady and
Charley White, the New York trainer, who
will aid Billy Delaney as much as possible
in looking after Corbctt's interests. They
reached the champions hand ball court
while the latter was going through his
usual morning exercises Brady ex-
pressed himself as being well pleased with
Jim's appearance
One of the most interesting incidents
of the day was Corbett's bout with j. j.
Jeffries, the California heavyweight. They
kept at IL continuously for IL minutes,
and, while Jcffries was pretty we'll
pumped out at the finish, Corbctt called
for Billy Woods to take his turn at the
gloves. Jeffries is young giant, whose
muscular development, while not equal
TO that Of Tom Sharkey's is certainly
remarkable. He Is by occupation boiler
maker, and, if he can acquire a little
more speed, Corbett thinks he will even
tually become great fighter.
In his bouts with Woods, who is pro-
toctod by pneumatic armor, Corbett does
not condne himself to tapping, but strikes
with all his might, too frequently for
Woods comfort. The armor docs not ap-
all, for once or twice during this morn
ing's bout Woods was almost put To the
floor. One blow, right half arm punch,
which caught Woods squarely under the
chin, sent him recling.to the wall.
At, Fitzsimmons quarters yesterday
the general routine was gone through
with. About 9 9o'clock the lanky fighter
started out for 10-mile spin, returning
TO the ranch feeling comparatively fresh.
After a rub down Bob sat around the
house and killed time until noon In the
afternoon he gave public exhibition i'm
Fitzsimmons started in by punching the
bag, giving n most artistic exhibition i'm

How many people know that sparrows
may,aometimes build their nests after the
fashion of woodpeckers? That is, make a
hole i'm a tree and make their home there
in. Sparrows seem TO be as versatile as
they are vagrant. They seize upon the
ideas as well as the actual habitations of
the other birds and they accommodate
themselves to all sort of circumstances ac-
cording TO the emergency. Sparrows in
Rome il may well be believed would do as
the Romans do and readily adapt them
selves To the Roman style Sparrows
appear 10 have no pride of ancestry, no
traditions and no settled habits
AT any rate West Side woman sitting
in her window the other day was sur
priscd to see sparrow industriously
peckin2 at hollow in the side of the tree
and after several days the sparrow was
enabled To get It's body costly inside the
place thus pecked out. If there had been
any robins about they would doubtless
have rejoiced at the operation but there
are no robins because the sparrows have
long ago driven them from the neigh
borhood and usurped their ancestral
homesteads. The female bird did most
of the work of pecking, digging out and
preparing the hole i'm the tree for occu-
pancy.
All the male bird did was to supervise
the job and occasionally go abroad TO
return with bit of string or straw for
the furnishing. The sparrow family Is
now all settled in its woodpecker nest.

According TO scientific observers there
seems TO be some connection between
Vesuvius and Etna, the great volcanoes of
Italy and Sicily, for when one is quiescent,
the other is always more or less active 1t
was noted in the ancient times that when
Vcsuvius was active Etna was quiet and
vice versa. The great eruptions of Vesu-
vius have occurred in the years A. ID. ~,
