An Aeathetic Hear.

An aesthetic bear that dances for a
living in England was trudging along
the road behind its master near Ken
sington, and had paid no attention to
the men or the women in skirts that
wheeled by. When fat woman in
bloomers, however, appeared riding a
bicycle the bear broke away from his
master and made rush for her, smash
ing the wheel, but being caught before
it hurt the rider.

Increase of Christian brotherhood.
''In very short time" says the New
York Christian Advocate, there will be
brotherhoods named after oil the apos-
ties and perhaps number of the
prophets. They are now rivaling the
secret societies in number and per-
sistency. The Brotherhood of the Chris
tian church is as much as we find time
to attend to properly, and can hardly
claim to meet oil of its responsibilities" I"

international Bicycle Records.

All interested in cycle racing are aware
that II Is the intention Of many well known
foreign riders to come TO America during
the present year to enter into competition
with the cracks OF this country. In Wow
of this fac, the suggestion that the racing
board Of the L. A. W. should reverse Its
record rules seems most scasonnble.
As the record rules are now accepted In
this country no records against time
made with standing start will be- allowed,
ms 10 Is compulsory that such exhibitions
be with flying start.
The rules of the controlling bodies In
England and France come into direct con-
flict with those of the l.. A W. They re-
quire that speed trials shall be made with
n standing start This difference In rules
Is unfortunate. aud the trouble should he
obviated by the formation ~ an inter
national record agreement, so that riders IN
foreign lands would be able to make records
that would Ire rcognizcd In any part Of the
globe.

KENTUCKY FUTURITY.

The Sth renewal Of thekentucky futurlty
opened by the Kentucky trotting morse
breeders association closed last tuesday
night and since then the entries nave Deeh
coming in from every quarter OF the coun-
try Secretary Wilson said last night that
no thought the milk was all out Oh the
cocoanut and that no moro entries Woulu
bo received
Eight hundred and thirty seven mares
have been named, which Is more than inc
most hopeful Of the management OF the
association anticipated. Sec Wilson when
advocating the opening of the stake lg-
ured out $50 entries. This estimate he IN
creased afterward just before IL closod 10
500 which was within 81 OF the fnal re-
suit.
The futurity nominators are more
numerous than over before. Inat Is, there
are more nominators, AMI their entries
are smaller. This shows more than any
thing else that the small breeders OF the
country APPRECIATE the stand taken by tne
Kentucky breeders association, ana al
helped To the extent of their abillty AS
a result the futurity il on as good "a foo6-
ing as last year, ana while the association
will bc compelled To go down in its pocket
and prodLc. several thousands 20 COM

to stand in carrying out its policy OF adj
yancing the interests of the horse busl-
ness -.
OF the total list of entries about half
were made by men who nominated one
and two mares. They came from all Soc
tions, from Nova Scotia 20 California
and from Canada to New Orleans. Mares
and stations never heard of before have
their progeny eligible TO the futurity-and
maybe one OF them will win II.
OF the balance, the minority was con-
tributed by the prominent stock farms OF
tho country. A. III. Moore, Cloverdcll
farm. as usual, heads the list. Last year
he nominated 100 mares, this year ne

SlLER ON SULLIVAN.
The Referee OF the Big Fight Talks
About the Ex-Champion.

George Sllcr, who refereed the big mill

In an interview at Chicago the other day,
he said:
"Sullivan's challenge 90 the winner Is

While Siler's opinion regarding Suls,
livans challenge is tho same as that OF

injustice when hc says he was never a

New York Steam Filters
Refuse to Go 10 Work.
Present Trouble WasPre cipi-
tated by the Bosses.
From $4,000 TO $4,000 Mechanics
May Ultimately Be Affected.

New York, March 30 "A strike of the
steam filters in this city, in which be-
tween 30 600 and $4,000 men may be in
volved, was declared this morning, when
over 100 steam filters refused to go TO
work in their shops. The strike Is the
result Of practical lockout on the part
of the bosses The latter announced on
Saturday that the agreement hitherto ex-
listing between themselves and their cm-
ployes would no longer be considered in
force, and that those who wished TO report
for work this morning must sign new
rules. The men have refused TO sign and
the strike is on.
The notice handed to each man as he
applied for his wages on Saturday night
is as follows: Inasmuch as the agree
ment heretofore existing between the
Master Filters Association and the Enter
prise and Progressive Associations has
bccn violated by the last named associa-
tions, the Master Steam and Hot Water
Filters Association has declared the said
agreement null and void. Therefore each
and every steam filter or steam filter
helpers who wish TO continue In our en-
ploy is hereby directed TO report TO our
shop Monday morning, March 80, at 4
o'clock and agree TO sign our new rules
before going To work.
The members of the steam-fitters union
believe that the notice Of Saturday was
issued by the bosses because of the steam
filters going on strike at the Columbia
buildings and other structures because of
the unions fight with the plumbers union
over tho control of the thcrmostatic
work. This latter trouble, it was thought
would be settled by arbitration in which
Bishop Potter would DO the referee.
Thomas Cunningham, and Thomas
Hume, walking delegates of the steam
filters association and James Nugcnt del
cgate for tho helpers, declare that If the
old agreement existing between them
selves and the bosses has been violated at
all it has been violated by the bosses alone.
William j. O'Brien, declared that the
steam filters ,n their fight would be
backed up by every building trade repre-
sentcd by the board of walking delegates.
The result may mean the cessation of
work ON every building i'm course of erec-
tion in this city. This would mean that
I'm all, from 30, 600 To 60, 600 men will go
out. The master filters association CON
trolls about three-fourths Of the steam fit
ting work done in this city. The asso-
ciation's agreement with tho men did not
expire until August next. The union
rate of wages for an eight-hour day Is
s. 80 day 10 steam filters and ~ a day
10 helpers.
