AMATEUR BOXER ARRIVES.
James S. Fox comes on the Zealandia
Last Night.

An Oakland, California paper under
date of January 18th has the following
about James $. Fox who arrived on the
-Zealandia:
James S. Fox, the well known am
ateur lightweight boxer, will sail in a
few days for Honolulu.
Mr.. Fox will be accompanied by his
sister and expects to remain perman-
emily, having secured an excellent po-
sition in the islands.
Jimmy" as every one in Oakland is
accustomed to call him, is perhaps the
best known figure in the local athletic
world, having occupied a prominent
place among amateur sportsmen for
the past thirteen years. He held the
amateur lightweight championship Of
the Pacific Coast for four years, during
which time he was pitted against many
clever men in the tournaments of the
OlympicS Aceme and other clubs. His
success led to tlattering offers to enter
the professional ranks, all of which he
declined, preferring to remain strictly
an amateur.
For a number of years he filled the
position of boxing instructor in the Re-
lance Club, and has acted as referee in
many contests held before that club.
his decisions giving universal satlsfac-
ton.
Mr.. Fox will be missed not alone in
athletic circles, for numerous friends
among all classes will regret to learn
of his departure. 1t is certain, how
ever, that he will be accompanied by
the best wishes for his success in his
new home

ELECTROLYSIS.

The superior court has made an inn
portant decision at indianapolis relat-
ing to the responsibility of a street
railway company for damages to gas
pipes through electrolysis, caused by
the return of the trolley current to the
earth. The court decided in favor of
the gas company, on the ground that
the railway company can, by the use
of an approved appliance, at reason
able expense, so operate it's cars as to
avoid injuring the gas company's pipes
while the gas company cannot by any
known method protect its pipes from
injury" AS trolley roads are every
where, and the electric current may
attack not only gas pipes, but water
pipes and the frames of steel buildings
as well, the decision becomes one of
general and practical interest.-Spring,
field Republican.

SOLDIERS SET Fashions
MANY GARMENTS THE TRIBUTE
TO HEROES.
Louis Napoleon, Boulanger, Yelling
ton, Grant, Lord Cardigan and Cara
baldi All Set Some Fashion or Other.

Those who keep their eyes about them
must frequently have wondered why so
many FTenchmen affect the curiOusly
pointed beard and muStache known as
the imperial" 1t is their unconscious
tribute to that unfortunate soldier, the
late Emperor Napoleon, who set a
fashion which has successfully sur
vived upward of thirty years Of repub-
licanism, according to the London Mail.
The soldier has always exercised a
great effect upon Partisan fashions.
During the Boulanger crisis everything
from boots to bonnets bore the name
of the brave general; while, quite re-
Gently, the Dreyfus blouse of blue and
gold, with military braiding, was open
ly worn by every fair sympathizer
with the prisoner of the Isle du Diable.
To Italy we owe the celebrated
'Garibaldi" blouse, which has COM
pletely reVolutiOEiZed the everyday
dress of modern womanhood, and the
comfortable sleeveless Garibaldi vest.
TO Kossuth, the great Hungarian pa
triot, our grandparents We're indebted
for the curious hats and jackets worn
by them at the time of the Crimean
war. This last war, with it's thrilling
charge of BalaklaVa, was destined to
give yet another war fashion to the
world. Lord Cardigan, who led that
glorious charge, was an exceedingly
ucllCdlt man lOl a SOlultIs lut lGlll-
BILE cold of the Russian winter so
pinched him that he procured a warm
knitted waistcoat of Shetland wool
with sleeves to match, which he wore
under his uniform. Hence the comfort
able Cardigan" Jacket, which has sur
vived to this day.
The success of Wellington brought
the usual crop of fashionable memen-
tos chief among them being the We'll
lington military cloak of dark blue Mel
ton cloth, such as the mounted police
men still wear; the much braided
Wellington frock coat, beloved of the
mid-century Dundrearys; and the knee
high Wellington boots.
The Highland regiments have been
responsible for more than one change
in the fashions. During the Indian
mutiny the splendid daring of Sir Colin
Campbells men so won the hearts of
the British public that little Britishers
were Immediately arraycd in all the
glory Of kits. Their elders, however,
drew the line at such abbreviated de-
Cency, and cOntented thcmelVes by an
neXing the Highlander's spats. We
still wear them.
At the present moment there is a
distinct feeling of soreness in certain
branches of the clothing trade anent
! the frost in khaki. The boom has not
| yet arrived, and beyond a few Khaki
| riding breeches, and few SLOUGH hats
sold to patriotic cOsters, there has been
! literally no business doing. The
clothiers made one fatal mistake
| khaki is not becoming. Chicago Rec

Mr. Merriam director uf the census,

recognized among statisticians that as
"a country obtains "a greater density of
population the increase rs slower than
ion those that are thinly settled. This
is demonstrated i'm Belgium, England,
Germany and other countries. England
and Germany for example, have in
creased only n per cent during the last
ten years. This is largely due To emf
