CRIES OF FOUL.
Cries of "foul, foul" followed Cases
left swing in the eighteenth, which
landed under Judges ear Immediate
ly following a clinch. Those who clear
ly saw the breaking say the men were
free when the blow was delivered. It
staggered Judge and he clinched dur
ing Cases several subsequent rushes.
1t was Cases round. The nineteenth
was anybody's. Both men were re-
markably strong considering the dis
tance and pace they had gone. Early
in the round they Jared equally In the
exchanges.
The twentieth round had not been
long under way when Case fell short
on a left for the body. He recovered
poorly. Judge was quick to grasp the
advantage and crossed his right like
q shot from a cannon. 1t caught Case
flush on the Jaw and sent him toward
the ropes Judge was after him like
cat with a left uppercut on the stom-
ach. Judges momentum brought the
men together and Case clinched. The
referee had difficult work to break
Cases hold. Case avoided a right
swing and clinched again.
THE FINISH.
Everybody in the house was on his
feet and shouting when Judges left
shot out and sent Cases head flying
back. Case swung short and wildly
and received left in the stomach and
right on the ear Case avoided a left
for the face and clinched. He was
plainly weakened. He clung, however,
until the referee broke them. Judge
was using left and right as the gong
sounded but it could not be heard by the
boxers on account of the din of cheers
for the Scrantonian. Referee Kelley
sent them to their corners in charge
of their seconds. who entered the ring
when the gong rang.
Judge was the more marked Of the
two. His lips, right eye and nose were
badly swollen.
After introducing the principals and
their handlers it was announced that
three weeks hence Tom Williams. of
England and Australia, would meet
the winner.
The preliminary was one of six
rounds between Jack" Kelly CMox''
Jordon). of the South Side, and jack
Livingstone (John Judge). The exhi-
bition was not all that one could wish
in point OF science, but Kelly excelled
in what there was of that quality.
Livingston's harder hitting and more
frequent leading won him the decision.

Honest Failures.

No greater opportunity is afforded the commercial man to exemplify the amenities of business than in a case of distress of his fellow man who has hon. estly failed in business. I say honestly failed because there are many such fail ures. These are the times when the commercial vultures descend beside the Christian Samaritan, one as the com mercial gravedigger. the other as the physician with the balm of fellowship and brotherhood. The first will try to squeeze the lifeblood. but the second will stand and demand that, although it is stipulated in the bond that pound of flesh shall be forfeited, one extra ounce of blood will cause the loss of that which he might have received Swedenborg said, Charity itself con- sists in acting justly and faithfully iii whatever office, business and employ ment person is engaged in.

Stanley's Cat.

AS the bonds of friendship are strengthened by a heavy affiiction so does @ prolonged sojourn in. foreign places, amid strange scenes, turn the most common of everyday sights at home into luxuries. A magazine tells 8 story of Henry M. Stanley, who, after his return from Africa, was busily en- gagged in writing his story of the Dark Continent.
 He used to spread his reference maps upon the floor of his room, and on this particular day, after searching in his near neighborhood for chart which he much needed, he spoke to his assistant, who presently deserted it near the fire- side, with Stanley's favor1te cat upon it asleep.
 He started to turn the intruder of, when the great man interrupted him, saying;
 "Never mind; don't disturb the cat. I'll get along without the chart until the cat wakes up. If you only knew how good the sight of that domestic cat curled up in front of that bright Eng fish fire is to me. you would never chase her away"
 The cat slumbered on, and not until she arose with a lazy yawn, scratching her front nails on the rug as she stretched, did the famous explorer reach for his map.

A W0MANS SUFFERINGS.
Some of the Agonies They
 NeedlesSly Endure.
Nervousness and Female Weak.
 nesses Ruin Many Lives:
These Poor Sufferers Have Found A Sure Way To Get We'll.

Female weaknesses are more common today than ever before. Constant work and worry weaken the nerves and vitality, and female weakness follows. As result there is pain, discharges, suppression, irregularities, weak back, infammations, bearing down, bad taste in the mouth, loss of appetite, faintness, constipation, nervousness, sleeplessness and irritability. Mrs. S. Taylor, of 25I West I7th St., New York City, says:
 For years have been unable to attend to my household duties owing to severe sickness. I was troubled terribly with female weakness, suppression of the menses for over six years, nervous exhaus- ton, sleeplessness and general debility. I had coldness of limbs and feet. and was in a helpless condition. I feared I should never get well.

The Letter ID.

The Semitic people called D Daleth, a door or opening, whence the Greek delta. To us in its present form it is not much like door, as we know, but if the orientals lived in tents shaped like the letter B it is not wonderful they should have doors the shape of a D. Our form of the letter is greatly changed from the ancient D, but 8 glance at the Greek delta, which is a right angle triangle, shows it identical in shape with the triangular tent door closed by flaps of canvas, and when one of these was drawn back shape was represented which must have been fa- miliar to all orientals

FERRYBOATS IN THE WAR.

A Veterans Recollectsons of One He Saw at Fortress Monroe In 1861. ''It is curious, said a veteran sol dier, "how some incident or circum- stance may impart to long familiar object to which we have never given any special thought significance that makes it always thereafter an object of particular interest. Tie East river fer ryboats impress me in that way now whenever l see one, and this was brought about simply by seeing one of them out of it's accustomed waters amid strange scenes and put to strange uses.
 'This was in the fall of 1861, in Hampton Roads. The regiment that I served in was aboard a transport there, waiting with other troops afoat there to go farther south under convoy of a fleet of war vessels. There was a great number of vessels there of all kinds, steamers and sailing vessels and war ships, and they made an impressive show, but certainly the most striking of any one of them on it's first appearance was an East river ferryboat, the Com modore Perry. I can see her at this min ute as she looked then, moving across the waters of the Roads; she looked so utterly strange and curious there and amid such surroundings. But she went here and there with the most perfect confidence, constantly employed in transporting stores and troops and making herself quite as much at home there .assshe ever had been among the currents and eddies of the narrow East i river.
 "Other ferryboats were taken down there. A soldier friend of mine tells me that later, in the peninsular cam paign, there was New York ferryboat in those waters that was used as gun boat, carrying two parrott guns, one at each end, mounted in the gangways, where the teams drive in and out. My own impression is that one or two of these boats went around Hatteras, into waters farther south; but, however that may be, shall never forget the first time I saw the Commodore Perry at Fortress Monroe, and to this day never go along South street without feeling of the keenest personal interest for every ferryboat I see on the river.

Some soldiers lounging near al. so wore the same grin, which was in- tensified on the countenance of 8 negro coming down the walk, and this wild grin rippled and spread like wave as I went on-orderlies, soldiers, doorkeep- CTS, all wore that peculiar smile.

But some time after, as our house about ''Old Abe splitting rails, '' Willie asked my mother: Mrs. Taft, ought Tad to sing that song? Isn't it disrespectful to pa?'' Tad kicked the chair, as he always did when diepleased, and said, Every body in this world knows pa used to split rails"
 Mamma explained why she thought it in bad taste, and Tad said, Well, I'll sing about John Browns Body, then He always obeyed my mother though generally so headstroag.
