The Local Newspaper.

The advantages of a local
newspaper are thus set forth by
a minister, who evidently knows
exactly what he is talking about E:
"Your local paper tells you to
go TO church, to- county court,
and when to send your children
to school or anywhere else YOU
want to go. 1t tells you who is
dead, who is sick, who is mars
ried, who is born and many
other things you would like TO
know. 1t calls attention to pub
lie enterprise, advocates the best
law aud order in your town. It
records the death of your son,
the illness of your wife. 1t sets
forth the advantages of your
town and is the first to welcome
new comets. Yet, in spite of
all these benefits, some say the
home haper is not as good as
some other paper that has no
interest in their business or sue.
cess. The home paper is too Of
ten neglected by those who ben
eft by it."

ant; in short, let her only be
loved, honored and cherished

Making Hard Times.

People unwittingly do much
to make hard times. This is
done in various ways, but one of
the me st effectua' ways is by
talking hard timrs-~grumbling
and complaining-just as if that
would help things any. 1t only
makes matters worse. Here is
how it is done, as described by
Nathaniel G. Fowler:
Ninety per cent. of that which
makes hard times is due TO the
general feeling that times are
hard.
One man finds times hard
with him, and he tells the Sec
ond man that business is bad
aud then the two men together
lSlI IOul lHSl, duN luS lOui luEu
tell eight men, and the eight
men tell sixteen men, and the
sixteen men tell thirty-two men
and by~and>bye all men think
that business has gone to the
dogs, but none of them have
ever visited the kennels to per-
sonally investigate the wherea-
bouts Of the business that disap>
peared. Men growl instead of
work, and at the slightest provo
cation make times bad for others
by making them bad far them
selves.

Curfew Law For Chicago.
Alderman coughlin Wants
Everybody at Home After
9 O'clock.

Alderman Coughlin, of the
First Ward, is preparing a cur
few ordinance for Chicago. He
threatens to introduce the meas
ure in the City Council January
10th. He will try to improve
upon the curfew law of Evans
town. While he thinks the
scheme OF keeping children off
the streets after 9 o'clock at
night is good one, lie would
send men, women and children
to their homes at that hour.
Incidentally, the statesman of
the First Ward thinks there
would be created 1000 places
for curfew bell ringers. The
Civil Service Commissioners
will have to examine applicants
for these places. The Alderman
will give his constituents the tip
W hen to take the ordinations,
and thereby be sure of the pa
tronage.
Il would have the curfew bell
sounded at 9 o'clock each night
from the steeple of every church
and the roof of every school,
house." said the Alderman.
"Woe be unto the citizen or
stranger who needed not the
warning. Adults cause more
trouble in the streets than do
children. If the children, it
would be all rights for adults
NV motive i'll this is the desire
to secure reform. l think all the
reformers OF the city, includ-
ing my friends the Civil Service
Commissioners, will be in favor
of this law"

C0RBETT NOT ANXIOUS TO
FIGHT.
He Couldn't Be Dragged Into
the Ring With Any One.

81 don't think you could drag
Jim Corbett into the ring again
with a yoke of oxen, and it
makes no difference who was in
the ring to meet him. Jim has
had his fill of the game, and he
will never fight again" said Al,
Herford. "Of course he is try
ing to make the public believe
be is anxious to meet Fitz again,
but that's merely an advertising
dodge to keep his name before
the public, and l will give him
credit for his shrewduess. The
reason Corbett will never fight
again is that his constitution is
not strong enough to stand for
the training, 10 say nothing OF a
bruising battle on top of the pre-
paratory work. 1t is doubtful if
Corbett could shape himself for
finish fight inside Of two
months. Billy Mu'doon. who
trained Sullivan for the Kilraln
battle at Richburg, told me III
New York last week that Cor,
bett would have to buckle down
to at least eight months hatd,
systematic work in order to be
in half as good trim as he was
in his battle against Mitchell.
Jim is a good fellow, with Bohe-
mian habits, and it would be like
extracting every tooth III his
head if he were obliged to train
for two months, to say nothing
of an eight months siege. Fitz
simm ons, through Martin Julian,
has requested Corhett to fight
Maher, Choynski and the whole
string of heavy>weights OF any
account, but there is no reason
to believe that Fits request
will be complied with. Corbett
will continue to pull down a
net profit for a few seasons as an
actor, and will repeat his chal
lenge' periodically with a view
OF securing SO much deadhead
advertising. But he will never
fight Fitzsilnmons or anybody
else. If Fitzsimmons wants to
fight lie must turn to Rubin,
Jeffries, or any other Of the
heavy weights who are likely to
accept his challenges Fitz is
not a big drawing card On the
road as an exhibition boxer, and
he hasn't accumulated enough
money to retire from the ring OF
the stage. In fact, necessity
must compel him to return tc
the ring within the next two
years. Washington Post.
