COLONIES OF THE WORLD.

The colonies, protectorates and de-
tendencies of the world number 1876.
They occupy two-ffths of the land sur
face of the globe, and their population is
one-third of the entire people of the
earth. OF the 5OO,OOO,O 900 people thus
governed over three-fourths live within
what is known as the torrid zone, and all
of the governing countries lie in the
north temperate zone. Throughout the
globe-encircling area known as the torrid
zone no important republic or independ-
ent form of government exists save upon
the continent of America. OF the 1875
colonies and dependencies, forty-eight
belong to Great Britain, thirty-two to
France, eight to Germany, nine to Portu-
gal, FIVE to China, four each to the United
States and Turkey, three each to the
Netherlands, Spain, Denmark and Rus
STA and two each to Italy and Austria

HE IS A KENTUCKIAN.
He Mashed ellis Lawdship's'
Mouth and Tanned Him to
Good Behavior.

We recently published an article on
THE Kentuckian's Weakness, and Mr..
James Andrew Scott, the popular Frank
fort attorney, has given practical verif-
cation of it. Mr.. Scott is quiet, inoffen-
sive and courteous gentleman, whom no
one could suspect of being "slugger, "
yet here is what Rev. w. c. Taylor tells
the St. Louis Republic he did to an
English Lord in a New York hotel for
using cuss words in the presence of
ladies':
"Mr. Scott, with his wife, two grown
daughters and son, visited Niagara Falls
and had a suite of rooms at the Inter-
national Hotel. An English Lord also
had rooms on the same floor, just across
the hall. A little after midnight one
night great crash was heard in the hall.
1t aroused every one in the hall, and inn
mediately a crowd of men, yelling,
swearing and fighting, was surging along
the hall in the direction of Mr.. Scott s
apartments. He called porter, who in
formed him that the titled man was
drunk and that he was knocking down
every one who attempted to interfere.
"The clerk was sent for, but he said
that the head clerk had given orders not
to interfere with the party in any way
The head clerk was summoned. He said
that the Englishmsn and his party were
worth about 81 900 day to the hotel,
and that interference with him would not
be permitted. In the meantime the pro-
family had become unbearable, and Mr..
Scott called policeman, but the police
man was stopped at the Office down.
stairs.
"Mrs. Scott and her daughters were al
most frantic. Mr.. Scott is a Kentuckian
to the manner born. and every inch of
him is true to the traditions of his noble
State. He CALAMITY undertook inter-
national negotiations. AT this juncture
a gentleman, who claimed to be the Sec
rotary of the party, presented himself
with the statement that he was authorized
to settle any bill for damages. Just then
an oath was launched by his Highness,
directed at any one who would presume
to interfere with his conduct.
"rhe Kentuckian, scantily clad, sailed
into the room of his lordship, dealt him
a blow in the mouth that ratified the teeth
in his head and piled him in heap on
the bed. In another moment Mr.. Scott
had his lordship by the throat. In the
scufie that followed the he'd broke down.
Then his lordship sued for peace, which

SPORTY ITEnS.

Joe Cavanaugh has been made Captain
of the Austin base ball team.
Shindle, who played for a time with
Brooklyn last season, has been signed by
the Hartford Club, of the Eastern League,
to play third base.
Martin Muldoon defeated Thomas Nc
Nerney in wrestling contest for the
interstate championship at Warren, Ohio,
on last Saturday night.
The worlds record for double kick
was broken by d. c. Briggs, of Colum-
bus, Ohio, who made seven feet three
and three-quarter inches in that city last
Saturday night.
Among base ball enthusiasts last week
there was only one topic of conversation,
and that was the memorable eleven inn
ing battle of Saturday at Washington
Park between Brooklyn and Boston.
A six day go-as-you-please foot race is
announced to take place at the Grand
Central Palace, beginning May 8. 1t will
be twelve-hour-a-day contest so as to
keep within the provisions of the new
law.
At the Greenwood Athletic Club in
Brooklyn last week Owen Ziegler
knocked out Frank Wango, an Indian,
in the second round. The bout was to
have been for twenty rounds, at 1873
pounds. The Indian was outclassed and
was almost counted out in the first round.

boxers have come to the conclusion that
they have been humping each other for
purses that are too small. They held a
meeting in that city last week and passed
a resolution that hereafter they will not
fight for a smaller purse than SIS.
The league championship season of
1899 has started most auspiciously. The
attendance at the games thus far played
has been phenomenal and this means
that admirers of the great national game
will turn out to see base ball played on
its merits, but will not take the trouble
to go to the ball grounds if there is to be
any rowdyism.
The number of players with which the
twelve League clubs begin the season is
as follows: New York. eighteen; Brook
Ign, twenty; Philadelphia, nineteen; Pitts
burg, eighteen; St. Louis, nineteen WASH
ington, seventeen; Baltimore, eighteen;
Boston, sixteen; Chicago. seventeen; Gin
cinnati, nineteen; Cleveland, seventeen,
and Louisville, nineteen.

hint was sufficient. America was again
victorious, and the hotel was quiet
