ming over with mischief, and full OF the
widest pranks, must have been trial
and tribulation to the orderly and sedate
members Of her family, and thorn in
the flesh to the prim and precise of her
acquaintance, But warm-heaIted, truth
full and perfectly courageous, there lay
the foundations for the finest of charao-
ters. One would not to this day expect
her to do things on dead level, nor to
accept the ordinary and commonplace,
but 1t will be well for our children to
read this autobiography of this tomboy,
and they, as well as their elders, will
find 1t great fin. II all tomboys are as
interesting as Miss GiIder's we cannot

The Worldlings, by Leon ard Merrick,
is quite exciting, and rather heart
rend Ing story of very 'good young
man' who sucoumbs to temptation, and
after seeing his friend, Philip Jardine
well out of the world, through dying IN
Australia, presents himself to Philips
father, Sir Noel, as his long-lost son.
Being accepted ana welcomed as a re-
formed and returned prodigal. he marries
and at first all goes we'll and merrily.
But the mistress Of young Philip Jardine,
appears upon the scene, and discIosss
the plot to old Sir Noel, to whom 1t is
fearful blow. But, In this case dis
honesty is It's own reward, for the i'm
postor, Maurice Blake, is dismissed with
a settlement of three hundred a year, ''to
guard against the possibilities of want, -
while his wife, In feminine fashion,
having never before cared very much for
her husband, rewards his treachery by
loving him more than ever and con-
tinuing to follow his fortunes. The
moral is obvious.
Mr.. Morrison story of Cunning Muir
rell is very characteristic of this writer,
whose Tales Of Mean Street and A Child
Of the Jago gave him an enviable repu-
tation.
This, his latest work, is queer, quaint
and clever tale of smuggling and the
coastguard of spells and OF witchcraft,-
the scene and settiog being the Kent
shore, especially at the mouth of the
Thames.
Mr.. Morrison's style is unusually, but
never commonplace, and if OCCASIONALLY a
person is found who does not ''care for''
what he writes, there are sure to be
many who do.
Mr.. Kirk Munroes books need no
praise from the reviewer, for the boys are
Wild in their enthusiasm over them and
must have them. The latest, Under
the Great Bear, is most exciting tale
OF adventure and mlshap, of SUCCESS and
failure, and if some of US should chance
to think it almost too strang6 o be true.
the authors large body of youthful read
ers viii like it no less on that account.
The hero, Grant Cabot( there is nothing
like real Boston family name), just
graduated from the Technical Institute,
is sent by his would-be employers on a
trip to Newfoundland and Laborador, to
test his business ability. How he stood
the test, his varied and wonderful ex-
periences, and what came of 1t all, the
boys who read Will soon find out.

The local interest in the outcome of
the Gardner McGovern battle in New
York tonight has never been exceeded,
even when the big fellows were fight
ing, with the worlds championship Tor
a prize. In New York it is said there
is very little Gardner money to bet on
the straight result, most of the wagers
being laid on the number Of rounds
the Omaha Kid will stand. The
same conditions of affairs obtains here,
although there are many admirers of
Oscar who really feel that he will win.
It might not be inopportunte to re-
mark, parenthetically, as it were, that
the favorites do not always carry OFF
the coin. If Gardner wins he will be
but sustaining a precedent established
years ago when Jim Corbett wrested
the championship from John L. Sulli-
van, and Corbett was selling as low as
1 to 10. If Gardner is training as con-
scientiously as reports say, and his
hands are in strictly first class shape,
it will not be considered remarkable if
he wins from the Brooklyn boy.
A great many bets have been made
in Wheeling and vicinity. The sport
ing editor of the Register has deposit
of $25 which a local sport wants TO
wager against a like amount that Gard
ner will not be put out in eight rounds
One bet of 500 to SIS was made in
Bellaire that Gardner would not last
eight rounds. Another Wheeling man
wants to bet $500 even that Oscar will
be on his feet at the beginning OF the
seventh A wager of $25 even was
made last night that if Gardner stays
ten rounds he will get the decision.
Several even money bets were made on
ten rounds.
1t is hard to understand how the
sports figure out that Gardner will not
last eight rounds when it took Mccoy
ern nine rounds to beat Dixon.
A report of the fight by rounds will
be received on the stage of the Grand
Opera House and also at Gardeners
saloon.

What the World Saws.

What the World Says.
The following is taken from the New
York World:
Oscar Gardner, the Omaha Kid" is
expected to give Terry McGovern the
hardest fight of his whole career when
they meet before the Broadway A. G.
next Friday night. Both men have
trained hard and are in excellent con-
dition.
Gardner is famous for being the big
gest little man in the ring and is a
great drawing card, no matter whom
he fights. For some time past his
hands have been badly battered, and
many sporting men have come to be-
lieve he is losing his power to punch
hard. These hands have been entirely
cured, and Oscar is reported to be in
better trim than ever before.
McGovern is undoubtedly the great
est fighter of his ounces and inches that
has yet appeared, and it is a we'll
known fact that he put off meeting
Gardner just as long as he could con-
sistently do so. Now the Omaha Kid
is his next, and he anticipates the hard
est struggle of his life
This battle is to be for the feather
weight championship of the world, and
the seating capacity of the Broadway
A. c. will surely be tested. The spec
tators will see wonderful exhibition
both of science and gameness.
Gardeners Training.
special in the Pittsburg Dispatch
gives the following information about
Gardeners training:
Terry McGovern expects a hard bat
tie Friday night when he meets Oscar
Gardner at the Broadway Athletic
Club. The Omaha Kid has been
menace to him ever since he aspired to
win the featherweight title. He never
doubted his ability to beat "Pedlar"
Palmer, and always maintained lie
could beat Dixon, but he was doubtful
about what he could do with Gardner
Gardner has the utmost confidence in
his ability to defeat McGovern, and his
hacker, P. H. Sullivan, we'll known
local bookmaker, has bet several thou
sand dollars on the outcome.
Gardner has trained peculiarly for
his coming bout. Although he has
done the usual amount of road and
gymnasium work, he has paid as much
attention to his hands as to the other
part OF the training. He has not done
any boxing or bag punching and has
kept both hands in bandages at night.
In the morning, when the bandages are
removed, he uses the wrist machine
just long enough to keep the JOINTS
from becoming stiff After his morn
ing run he bathes his hands for all
hour in some kind of picking LIQUID
that makes the flesh and skin hard.
This is repeated in the afternoon, and
before retiring his hands are bound in
flannel bandages. While it is some
thing entirely new in the training line,
he says it has been beneficial to him.
and that, for the first time in a year.
he has been able to close both lists
tightly without causing any pain
Gardner has always claimed that lie
could defeat McGovern if his hands
were strong, and this accounts for his
confidence in the coming bout.

The feature of the days trading was the
buying of October, and selling of Decem-
Der by the elevator interests. Commits
sion house business was small. The local
talent were bearishly inclined. but did
not make much Roadway with the short
sales. Liverpool was unchanged to 1-Sd

receipts were 200,000 bushels less than
last year: elearances were AIS, eco bush
els. Cash sales here were 35O,O00 bushels
The seaboard reports 80 loads. The
weather in the Northwest was clear and
cold.
The corn market opened strong for
September on demand from a few out
standing shorts. October ruled easier all
day from sales of receiving houses. No
vembcr was strong on buying for the &C
count of a local pit operator. December
and May were neglected. There was a
fair cash demand, 100000 bushels. for
No. 3 corn, at 3 3-4c over the October
price, to be shipped by october 10. Coun-
try acceptances from Illinois we're

Packers and shorts were competing for
