FEMININE SPECULATORS.
Many ProInfn nent Philadelphia Wom- en Gamble fin Stocks to an
 Alarming Extent.

The fact that many of the leading women of Philadelphia gamble in stocks was fact brought out by the failure there recently of 8 big firm of stock brokers. The women who were losers by their collapse have thronged the offices of the assignee Tor the bankrupts, trying to make some advantageous arrangement of their unfortunate investments. As a rule, the women were we'll dressed. In years they had reached or passed middle life. While in appearance they seemed to be shrewd, womanlike, scarcely one of them was able to comprehend how Howard, Crosby & Co. should not drop around and make good every investment made on the board, says an eastern exchange
 They had been slipping into this Chestnut street office for months to gamble on the market The habit seemed to have a wonderful hold on them. As rule, their custom was to drop into the office each day and examine the board, iounging idly about and following the musical click If the sounder.
 After comparing the quotations with those of previous days and watching the board for a few min utes the patrons would place their orders. If certain stock would be 70 and advanced two points to 72, when the women returned on the fol- lowing day they sold out and studied the boards for new invetments.
 As rule, these women speculapr are milliners, dressmakers or sales women. Their purchases varied from ten dollars up to $50. Some of them have been following the business for months and have made money. Scarce ly any of them are losers on invest ments made previous to. two or three days before tho failure.

The San Rafael (Cal) correspond ent of the New York Journal says that. caught in the tooth-shod jaws of q bear trap, Ray Hollis battled with the storm and what seemed certain death on the steep hills back of Chi leno valley all night. When found by his brother he was almost unconscious and his leg was terribly lacerated.
 Last week large panther had been seen in the locality and Hollister set a bear trap on the trail on the ridge where its tracks had been found.

PUGILIST WEIGH UNCONSCIOUS.

Phillipsburg, Jan S.-F'rnnk Nelch, who was knocked out by Paddy Dono- van in the fight at the Cedar Park A. C., q week ago last night, is still lying at the point of death. His case Is bafIling physicians, and the fact that he is still alive though unconscious is inscribed to his fine constitution only. It is believed that there is q fracture at the base of the brain and this means death Under the laws of Kew Jersey. if Welch dies, Paddy Donovan, who struck the blow, can be sent to prison for twenty years for man. slaughter.

It Doesn't Pay

It doesn't pay to fuss and fret when any-
 thing goes wrong. Instead of wailing when you lose inst sing
 merry song. It's always better while you work to whistle than to whine And when luck fails it never pays to sit
 down and repine. The man who makes the best of things
 shows sturdy common sense. The chances are that he will rise tofname
 and eniinence: But if he doesn't. none the less he'll mako
 the most of life, And women all will envy and congratulate
 his wife. Some rVille Journal

ABOUT THE RINGsIDE.

Joe Bernstein is slated to meet "1oung Corbett" at Denver on next Friday night in ten-round bout.
 Tom Sharkey left for West Baden Springs last night to begin active training for his coming battle with Kid Mccoy.
 The authorities of Lawrence, Mass. have issued an edict to the effect that boxing matches will be barred ill that city in the future.
 Ali Levy, the bantam, has written to the matchmaker of the Isoteric A. c. of Boston asking for q contest with Peter Brooks.
 Patsy Sweeney and George McFad- den have signed articles of agreement to meet at the Isoteric A. C., Boston, on January If. The bout is for fifteen rounds at 133 pounds.
 Al Neil, the crack San Francisco middleweight, has posted forfeit and issued a challenge to meet Tommy Ryan in a twenty-round bout during the first week of March.
 Charley White, Tom NBroderick's manager. who arranged for sammy Kelly's trip abroad. says that Kelly will be matched upon his arrival at London to meet Ben Jordan.
 According to the London Mirror of Life. Pedlar Palmer has decided to re- tire from the ring. He says that he is going into business at London and will never do any more boxing.
 Jerry Marshall. the colored Austra- Han pugilist, is said to be suffering from consumption at Baltimore. Marshall came to America about seven years ago to meet George Dixon, who defeated him. George Dixon has accepted an offer to meet Henry Lyons of Chicago at Baltimore next month. Al Herford. | Lyon's manager, is willing to hang up | q good-sized purse for the two men. George Dixon is of the opinion that he can defeat Terry McGovern and has asked Tom O'Rourke to match him against his condueror again. Dixon | thinks that with at least two months good training he will be in condition to beat Terry.
 | Al Hereford, manager of Joe Cans, and matchmaker of the Eureka A. C., | Baltimore, has offered purse of S3,- | 900 for a tWenty-roun1 bout between Harry Lyons, colored, of Chicago, and | Terry McGovern. He says that he will also match Joe Cans to meet the l winner of the HugheS-Daly bout. which takes place at London next month.
 Sammy Kelly. in company With | Harry Harris, has sailed for England. Kelly, upon his arrival on the other side. will try to seek a mill with the winner of the Curley-Roberts "go,' which is to be decided at the National Sporting club to-lnorrow night. Harris, who comes from Chicago. will try and induce Harry Ware to clash with him.
 The match arranged between Kid Carter of Brooklyn and Bob Long, which is scheduled to be decided at Springfield, o.. on January 22, will probably fall through. Carter, accord. ing to the management of the club, has not posted the $lOO forfeit which he said he would put up. If he does not do so Charley Burnes of Cincinnati will be substituted.
 It appears that the challenge issued by Benny Yaeger, the "Tipton Slash er,' to meet Terry McGovern was in the nature of q bluff. The fact that Yaeger had deposited q $1.O0O check with George Siler prompted McGovern to notice the def and he at once GOV cred the money. When Siler tried tc cash the check he found it worthless, 1t is said, and at once washed his

Measure of Value.

 All value in cnes vision lives, Or else within the heart. If faulty painting pleasure gives, Why, that to us is art. The old rag doll by many spurned, May yet emotions stir: It's value, where child's concerned, Is what 1t seems to her. The maid for whom perchance you care May have admirers few: Though others see no beauty there, She's what she seems to you. A photograph or scribbled rhyme That others would despise May mean to you joy sublime Therein their value lies. = And so to everyone I say: Why measure by the cost? A trifing thing misplaced some day May be treasure lost. To life this rule you will apply If you are really wise However tempted, never try To see with others eyes. Chicago Evening Post.

His fellow players got him into the rink. He leaned on his polo stick and refused to hit the ball. The crowd had been patient, but it could stand this no longer. The women-all save one-had left. The crowd howled, hissed, catcalled. There was a rush made for Daley, and for a time it looked as if he would be used roughly. But he was hustled away. After the game Daley said he was go- ing to Portland. It is to be sincere ly hoped that such is the case. A man who plays such tricks is not wanted in Taunton. He injures the game.

THE FILE-eNAwERs.

Poor old Tom Fitch, as the Adver-
tiser calls him, is a lively sixty-three
year old, who is rated by R. G. Dun
& Co. as being worth fourteen times as
much as the amount that L. A. Thurs
ton pays taxes upon. The intimation
that he came here to seek the office of
Attorney General is absurd, for he
would not be eligible to the Office with
out a residence of a year. and it is
not likely that he would seek it or ac-
cept il then. for his abilities as a law
yer have found prompt recognition.
and he already enjoys a practice worth
four times the salary of the Attorney
General. Why the Advertiser con.
tinues to editorially slur Mr.. Fitch is
mystery. for he is not an office
seeker. and since his advent here has
taken no part in public affairs or in
pending quarrels. The Advertiser in
its blind rage strikes also at Judge
Campbell (Mr Fitch former law part

here to seek a judgeship. The intima
ton is ridiculous. as Judge Campbell
