AFTER THE FIGHT.

After the fight was over,
After the prize was won;
After great Fifz had triumphed,
After Jim had been done,
Many game sports were broken
Cleaned out Of dollars bright,
Left with nary token,
After the fight.
After the fight was over,
After the mighty shout;
After the referee, Siler,
Had counted Jim Corbett out
Never a word was spoken;
Obi what supreme delight;
Neither pug even suffered,
After the fight.

CnnstantinonIe,s Beauty.

No one ever neared Constantinople
without being struck by its marvellous
beauty. Mrs. Max Muller, in Letters
From Constantinople, thus describes
it:
under all lights and at all hours
the view Of Constantinople from the
Marmora is unique in loyeliness. The
gentle outlines Of the low hills, the va
ried colors, the magnificent buildings
form whole, combining in one the
beauties of Stockholm, Venice and the
bay of Naples. When lit up by sun
shine, the varieties of color are dazzling.
The eye rests on mosque after mosque,
with their snow white minarets, in
sharp contrast TO the almost black cy-
presses that mark the small, unused
burial grounds surrounding each mosque
or the vast cities of the dead at Scutari,
beyond Pera, and outside the old city
walls. The roofs Of most Turkish houses
are rich brown, while large plane
trees, with their bright green leaves.
stand in every garden, and over all is a
sky so blue that after sojourn of sew
eral weeks one longs for tho contrast of
English clouds"

Alumni. Attention.!

On Friday evening, June Is, 1897, the
Alumni association OF the Calumet high
school will receive into it's membership
the class OF '97. Before this event takes
place it may be well to say to those grad
yates OF the high school. who are not
yet members OF the association.
IL cannot but be evident to all who
give the matter any thought, that this
organization must be OF immense benefit,
not only to its members. but to the
school, and through tie school to the
community in general.
The want OF interest and cooperation
on the part Of the patrons Of the school
il one OF the most serious drawbacks to
its success. Certainly no community has
better reas'n to be proud OF its high
school than Calumet. and a strong Al
umni association can do much To foster
this interest and loyal y.
Leaving out OF account the pleasure
which comes OF meeting the old friends
once each year and growing younger ia
recalling the care-iree days of school life,
it Is a duty owed TO the community by
every graduate 10 show his loyalty 70
the school which gave him his start in
education.
The association intends this year to
invite al the graduates OF the school to
assist in receiving the incoming class,
end then an opportunity will be given
any wishing TO become members to do so;
or those who wish to join before then
may do so by paying a membership fee
OF so cents and yearly due OF 81 to the
treasurer, Miss Ruppe, at her home on
Sixth street. Those who are already
members may pay their dues for the pres
ent year at the same place.

Wolves were supposed to be an entire

Rowett weighed 1851 pounds and Jones

New York. June with fully 1901
pleasure-seekers on board the three
decked excursion steamboat Paul Koch
drove on a shoal near Penfeld light
house, in Long Island Sounl. sunday
afternoon. The vessel struck with a
shock that pitched many passengers OF
their feet. The galley in the cook room
was overturned, and the boat had hard
ly come to a standstill before fire was
blazing briskly in that compartment.
The cook room is on the port side near
the wheelhouse. Directly ABOVE it is a
larger room, in which several games Of
cards had been going on before the YES
sci struck. The players SAID smoke
curled from the deck beneath them, and
two or three OF the occupants OF the
room made rush for the doorway.
Fire Was Soon Drowned Out.
One man, with rare presence Of mind.
blocked their exist and pointed out the
disastrous result that might follow an
alarm. The men went below and found
the cooks trying to extinguish the blaze
The captain and officers were having
their attention wholly occupied by the
other trouble into which the steamboat
had found her way, and did moi know Of
the more threatening danger. Captain
l.Vnrh KnpNv nf Ga Int
when passenger who had his family
on board made his way into the pilot
house and told him of the fire. The blaze
then could not be reached from the cook
room, and the passenger urged that the
crew be called TO fire quarters. Captain
Lynch got some of his men TO work
with axes and had them cut a hole
through the deck overhead. Hose was
then brought, the steam pumps set GO
ing, and in a little while the fire was
drowned out. Few Of the passengers
knew of the danger until it was all
over.
But the Vessel Was Fast Aground.
But there was another peril, and that
kept them uneasy. The vessel had struck
two miles from shore, and only a short
distance from the lightship whilh marks
the dangerous Penfield reef. There was
a second bump and shock, and The sound
OF grating sand as the vessel ground
her keel into the shoal and came TO a
standstill, with bows hove up and stern
depressed, and seas racing along her
sides and splashing over her guards
The tide had commenced to run food,
and shortly after Z O'Clock in tie even
ing the engines, which had been set hard
astern, succeeded in backing the vessel
clear Of the reef. The hull was intact
and the vessel was headed for this city,
where she arrived at 1880 ocl 1ck Sun
day night. Her passengers were landed
at the foot Of East Thirty-frst street,
and an angry and bedrasgied crowd it
was.
