THE TROUT AND THE RING.

The tale I sing is a song of spring
And is true beyond doubt,
The players are Miss Clara Carr,
Myself Uncle Jess and trout.
Twas Clara's wish to take a fish
From the bridge across the brook,
So l rugged her line, both strong and fine,
And baited her Limerick hook.
With spring and a snap specked old chap
Snatched the bait and made the line sing;
gave shout at the sight of the trout,
And Clara dropped her ring. -A
We searched for days, in many ways,
We raked and dragged and sounded;
We sifted ooze, but twas no use
In short, never found it.
Many trout taken out s-- ~.
OF the pool, where the stream crossed,
And opened with care but ring was there,
And we gave it up for lost.
'Twas year, guess, when Uncle Jess
Caught big trout on the fly;
1t was plump and round and weighed a pound,
And he brought it home to fry.
His eyes shone bright as he told that night
OF the ring lost a year ago,
On the very spot where his trout was got,
And never found, high nor low.
''Now, what do you think?'' asked he, with q
wink.
'I'll bet you never could guess
What was in that trout" ''The ringi" they
shout!
'Nothin but in ards,' said Jess.

The First Cookbook.

To the Romans belong the honor Of
having produced the first European
cookery book, and, though the author
ship is uncertain, it is generally attrib-
uted to Calius Apicus, who lived un-
der Trajan, ia A. D. Here are two
recipes from this ancient collection:
"First, for Il sauce to be eaten with
boiled fowl, put the following ingredi-
ents into mortar: Aniseed, dried mint
and lazer root; cover them with vine
gar, add dates and pour in liquamen Ia
distilled liquor made from large fish
which were salted and allowed to turn
putrid in the SUM, oil and a small
quantity of mustard seeds. Reduce all
to proper thickness with sweet wine
warmed, and then pour this same over
your chicken, which should previously
be boiled in aniseed water"
The second recipe shows the same
queer mixture of ingredients: "Take
wheelbarrow of rose leaves and
pound in a mortar; add to it brains of
two pigs and two thrushes boiled and
mixed with the chopped up yolk of egg,
oil, vinegar, pepper and wine. Mix
and pour these together and stew them
steadily and slowly till the perfume is
developed" Journal.

O'Connell and the Tipperary Boys.

At Tipperary, brave Tipperary, they
wanted to take the horses from O'Con-
nelps carriage and draw him them
selves upon his way. '"This will never
do," he said to his daughter-in-law.
''Their intentions are excellent, but
they'll get so excited that we'n find
ourselves in the ditch presently"
Bursting open the carriage door, in a
moment he was out among these gi-
gantic Tipperary men, just as big as
any one of them. "Now, boys, be rea-
sonable," he said. Leave the horses
under the carriage"
"But, shure, we'd rather pull you
along ourselves, SIR" was the reply as
the preparations for so doing went gal
lantly forward.
Cali right; on your own heads be it!'
cried O'Connell good humoredly, and,
throwing off his coat, he set to with
pugilistic intent, boxing them right
and left until, he got them to desist.
Their amusement and delight knew no
bounds, and when, on regaining the
carriage, he doubled up his hand and
shook it at them, with beaming smile
and twinkling eye, the air was rent
with enthusiastic shouting, and he
drove off even greater hero than
when he had come.-Donahoe's Maya

SLUGGERS WILL FIGHT IN AUG
UsT-TWo CLEvEREST BIG
MEN EVER IN RING.

New York, July 31.-J. j. Corbett and
Kid Mccoy We're matched this after
noon to fight before the Twentieth Cen
fury club on the night of August 30. The
men will go % rounds, under Marquis of
Queensbury rules. 1t was expected that
trouble would occur when they met at
No. 1890 Broadway, but aside % some
rather sarcastic remarks passed by each
the meeting was peaceful. The men had
agreed to sign articles at half-past L
O'Clock. Corbett was on time, but Mccoy
failed to appear until after 2 O'Clock. AS
soon as Mccoy entered he walked to the
opposite side of tine room where Ccrbett
was sitting. For more h five minutes
neither man said a word to the other.
Mccoy looked extremely nervous n
acted like an amateur making his first
match. After about 10 minutes he re-
gained his composure n the men settled
down to business.
Corbett drew from his pocket the
telegram received from Mccoy, and,
holding it before the after. said: Now,
there ought not to be any trouble in sign
ing articles; you say here that you will
fight me at my own terms. I am going
to take your word for it. but will make
no unreasonable demands
Mccoy said: well. what are your
terms?"
SOTDSUC answered. L Will HSUC you
before the Twentieth Century club. The
winner to take 10 per cent and the loser
80"
Mccoy said he was satisfied with these
terms. Charlie White was named by Nc
Coy as referee and was satisfactory to
Corbett The only wrangle that occurred
was over bandages. Corbet at first in
sisted that no bandages be allowed. Nc
Coy refused to consider that. After sew
eral caustic remarks, the men finally
agreed that Mccoy would furnish ma
terial for bandages and Corbett would
decide on how much of the roll was to be
worn by each man. During this argu-
ment Corbett said to Mccoy:
"On, I know nothing of bandages. You
are an expert on that sort of thing. My
speciality is boxing"
Mccoy answered. "You have not shown
much cleverness at that either, I i'm
agine."
John Considine and George W.. Grant.
the former for Corbett and the latter for
Mccoy, drew up articles of agreement
and they We're signed by both.
Corbett will start in training in a few
days at Owen Zeigler's place at Bath
Beach. He has secured Charley Golf as
his sparring partner and will also engage
some wrestler to help get him in condi-
ton. . Mccoy will go to Saratoga lake to
put himself in shape. He has not decided
who will be his trainer.
