Both Good Men.

The verdict of the sporting fra
ternity, who stood beside the ring
at Coney Island on Friday night,
and saw the fight between Corbett
and Jeffries, is that both men are
entitled to praise for their wonder
ful endurance and staying qualities
when each punished the other so
severely. 1t was known and thought
by all who had watched the work
of both men, that Jeffries stood the
better chance of winning, for he
was the heavier and could strike a
more powerful lick, and when Cor
bett stood before him and gave
battle for 23 rounds, he surprised
all, even his most intimate friends,
and though "Gentiemau Jim" vas
defeated, he has nothing to be
ashamed of, for he put up the best
fight in him and by so doing has
added new friends to his long list of
admirers.

HOW SOME WOMEN DOETH.

Woman that is born in the latter
half of the nineteenth century is of
a few days full of high notions. She
cometh forth like flower and de.
sireth a new fifteen dollar hat. She
raiseth Cain and continueth therein
until her hen pecked husband pawn
eth his plow tools and buyeth a
buggy. She looketh with scorn upon
the man who worketh with his hands
for living and maketh much ado
over the half starved pettifogger
aud the perfumed haberdasher.
She turneth up her nose at the
honest and industrious farmer and
skilful mechanic and goeth into
ecstasies and "Jeemeny fits" over
the splke-tail dude who liveth of
of the hard earnings of his mother.
She playeth on the piano forte and
delighteth the ears of the euchre
players who gather into her parlors,
while her poor husband pineth in
sorrow and taketh the benefit of the
bankrupt law. She traineth up her
children to despise them that work
and her daughters to shun the
drudgery of the kitchen. She goeth
all the high social gates, while the
baker and the butcher poke their
long overdue bills at her miserable
husband who standetf them off
while he dupeth other bakers and
butchers. And when he geteth no
more credit he pulleth his freight
for other green pastures. She goeth
to the most fashionable church in
her silks and satins and consoleth
her unrequited land lord and grocer
by singing up to date anthems. She
finally dieth and goeth whittier this
deponent sayeth not.
But the good sensible woman is
not so.-Ex.

Beware of a Cough.

A cough is not a disease but a
symptom. Consumption and bron-
chitis, which are the most danger
Gus and fatal diseases, have for
their first indication a persistent
cough, and If properly treated as
soon as this cough appears, are
easily cured. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy has proven wonderfully
successful and gained its wide rep
utation and extensive sale by its
success in curing the diseases which
cause coughing. II 1t is not bene-

all they took when feeling dull and bad

Democrats Showed Under by an Ava
lance of Republican Votes.

BALTIMORE. Nov. president McKin-
ley carries Baltimore city BY majority of
$685. The returns from the country are
meager but official advices from'eighty-one
scattered precincts out of 35f give him 1925
as against 16l97 for Bryan thus assuring
him a majority of at least 10000 in the
State. The defeat of the Democrats has
been Thorough and surprising, it being GER
tain that they have lost five out of the six
congressman with the probabilities in favor
of a clean sweep by the loss of other. The
doubtful district is the second, in which ex-
Congressman j. Fred G. Talbot is the
Democratic candidate and A. A. Blakeney
the Republican aspirant. The returns, with
one precinct missing, show a majority for
Blakeney, and it is regarded as highly prob
able that he is elected. This means a net
loss of two congressman to the Democrats,
the Fourth and the First districts having
been represented by Democrats, though
Governor John Walter Smith, who was
elected i'm the First, resigned soon after
ward to become Governor of the State.
His business partner. State Senator John p.
Moore, was nominated by the Democrats,
to succeed him, and his defeat was source
of surprise, it being considered that he
was practically sure of election.
