The late Benjamin H Brewster President Arthur's
attorney general whose face terribly ds6gured
by scars, once engaged in attorney for
the Pennsylvania Railroad and the opposing coun-
sell in his closing speech made most brutal attack
on him. The dealings of railroad, he said "are
as tortuous and twisted as tbs features of the
who represents it." Mr.. Brewster gave no outward
his argument Then he said: For the first time in
my life the personal defect from which | suffer has

RINGERS AMONG THE BEANS.
How a Supply of Fresh Quinine In
fuenced Poker Game.
Dew York Sun


perhaps 1 shouldn't go into any ret
doctors chances of election said Ma
jor Dfollier.> but there is one thing
that has always prejudiced me against
him. 1t is a small matter, and, per-
haps, my proof is not conclusive
enough to establish a case against him
before an ordinary jury, but from the
point of view of any sporting man, it
certainly would look bad for kim.
1--WE were down in the Red river
country together in IA, and time hung
heavy on our hands during the even
ings. The doctor fed us lots of qui-
nine to keep down the swamp fevers,
and gave US wholesome advice about
diet, particularly cautioning us against
fresh milk from the neighborhood.
"Of course, we played poker, and, as
1 recollect it, the doctor was an invet-
crate loser. He didn't seem to know
the commonest rudiments of the game,
and was an impatient player, as well
as a sullen loser. We played with
shotgun wads for chips, and there
were less than 500 in the camp.
Now comes the singular and sug
gestive chain of circumstances which
been taking our quinine in powdered
form, and the stock got low. Doc made
a requisition on St. Louis for more, and
it seemed slow coming.
One night, when he was a heavy
loser and 1 was the banker, as usual.
he pretended to get mad at the gun
wads; said they were grimy old hoo
docs, and, at the close of the game,
chucked 'em all in to the fire.
!,
a game, he suggested that we should
get 500 white beans from the cook, and
use them. consented, and counted out
the beans at 10 cents each. When We
came to finish up l had to go down
into my clothes, when [ felt sure I
ought to be about 81 winner. I showed
the beans down in my pocket and said
nothing.
Next day I got thinking about the
matter, and counted I'D the beans. I
found [ had $50. Then I looked EN-
over, and found that lot of them
were ringers. Artificial beans, you
might say.
Il said nothing about it, but se0ar-
ated the ringers from the genuine
beans and put them in another pocket.
l was on to wooden nutmegs, and had
heard of shoepeg oats, but I couldn' t
see how anybody could afford to make
imitation DeanS, even IL tney DID sell
for a dime apiece on extraordinary oc-
casions. That afternoon Lieutenant
Ranger said to me:
We've got our quinines 1t came day
before yesterday. and Doc did not find
the package until a few minutes ago.
Queer form it comes in. Something en-
tirely new. A patent capsule contain
ing five grains.
'Then he showed me two Of the bean
ringers, and all said was:
That's nothing new to me. / have
taken eighty of them in a night
g No. Is that so? Didn't it make your
head ache? asked the lieutenant.
Such headache.' was all 1 said "

sHARKEY's PROPOSITION.
Gives Corbett a Chance to Fight For
Charity.

Vitality.
New York, Dec. tom Sharkey last
night issued the following letter: st see
by the papers that Mr.. Corbett wishes
to retrieve his lost laurels by making a
proposal to me that seems out of the
question; but 1 will not do as he and
the man who at present holds the
championship, and will not back it up as
they have DONE by telling their OpponA
ents that they should meet somebody
else first.
Il will cover Mr. Corbett's forfeit. al
though | think it very foolish to meet in
private for 50 600 a side, when we can get
50 much more money by boxing in public;
put II Mr.. Corbett will find the place to
box in, with ten men on a side and
guarantee me protection from arrest [
Will box him any old way. [ will give
the $1,000 to the poor of New York, or
what's better, seeing Mr.. Corbett has
mentioned charity as an excuse for a re-
turn match. l will box him in public
where there is no chance for arrest as
1t will be according to the Horton law,
and Will agree to give the whole or any
amount agreeable to him to be given to
the poor. the same to be under the pro-
vision of committee from the press of
this city.
THE only proviso [ wish to put in. is
that if l should make another match in
the meantime, this match with Corbett
is to come off afterwards"
George Dixon, the feather-weight cham
pion of America, has been matched to
fight young Pluto, the Australian cham
pion- Dixon and the foreigner have
agreed to try conclusions in a. twenty
round bout before the Olympic club of
San Francisco, some time in February. 1t
is Tom O'Rourke's intention to take his
stable of boxers to San Francisco after
Sharkey has had one more fight in the
east, which will probably be with KID
Mccoy.
The arrangements for. the Pluto-Dixon
match were made. some time ago, but
rumors to the effect that the LATTER
would not fight again, left the match
an uncertainty. However, Dixon has
not decided to retire. for a while at
least. and will take on a few good ones
before he leaves the ring. Pluto is said
to be the cleverest boxer at his weight
that Australia ever produced, barring
that wonderful tighter, young Critic. He
comes to this country with a clean
record.

distance Wheelmen.
PIERCE FALLS BEHIND
TRAINER FORCED HIM TO TAKE
SOME SLEEP.
Rode For Three Days With But Four
and Half Hours Sleep-Leaders
Have Passed the Thousand-mile
Mark-Elkins Paced By Petroleum
Motorcycle.

New York, Dec. 1.-THE largest crowd
that has gathered to watch the riders
in the six-days' bicycle race filed Mad
ison Square Garden tonight. All the
seats and boxes were filled by 7:SO
O'Clock, and large crowds gathered in
the center of the ring.
The riders. at o'clock .. M, We're
down to twenty-one men. At o'clock
Miller retired from the track, and was
asleep for one hour, reappearing on the
track at .. m. He received an ova-
ton from the crowd. Pierce was able
to regain his lead over Miller by the
enforced rest of the latter. and at Z
o'clock, the siXty-seventh hour of the
race, was three miles in the lead. Up
to the sixty-eighth hour of the race.
Pierce had taken but four and a half
hours of sleep. All that hour his trainer
forced him to retire for a short time.
He was off the track but fifteen min
utes. When Miller returned to the
track and found Pierce three miles
ahead of him, he rode very fast, and
at the end of the sixty-eighth hour was
three miles ahead of Pierce. He made
his lead five miles in the next hour.
Waller ran into the rail in front of
the press stand near the Fourth Ave
nue. end of the track, and was dis
mounted. He quickly resumed, but the
fall appeared to have dazed him. Miller
finished his LOO miles at S:45 o'clock
D. M. and seemed strong.
At $3.50 Harry Elkins rode an exhibit
ton two miles, following a very hot
pace set by Henry Fournier of France,
with his petroleum motorcycle. This
race was decidedly novel, and stirred
the crowd to great enthusiasm. The
motor is said to be capable of thirty
six miles an hour. and can, therefore.
go faster than any rider can follow,
and that is what the crowd seemed to
enjoy. Elkins made the two miles after
the motorcycle in Ais 2-5.
The board of health doctors were
close observers of the race all day, and
made many examinations, frequently
cautloning the Taen to moderate their
pace. At 5:25 p. m. they concluded that
Gross had enough, and he was ordered
from the track. BliVen, who had been
ordered off the track at II p. M this
morning, was given further eXamina-
ton by the board of health doctors,
| assisted by DR.. Frey, representing the
riders, but was found unfit to continue,
and was ordered out of the contest.
Miss Hansen, Miller's sweetheart
who has been with her lover all the
| time, to minister to his wants and in
spire him to a greater effort, tonight
telegraphed to her mother in Chicago,
! asking permission to marry Miller some
day this week She had not received
a reply at a late hour. Her mother is

use must be found for it. and the owner

by the foreigners in some of the recent
operations of Hooley, the promoter,
fairly caused the hair to rise upon the
heads of the less venturesOme Ameri-
