BOSTON RACES FAILTRES

Boston, Jan 21.-The race meet Sat urday night was the closing one at the Park Square Garden. Although a good card was presented only hand ful of persons witnessed the races. The twenty-five mile professional un- paced contest, in which such great things were expected, could hardly be dlgnlfied with the name of race The men hardly rode fast enough to keep warm. The event was won by John Dubois of Brockton in 1:O9A; Harry Caldwell of Manchester, N. H.. was second; Louis Gimm of Pittsburg, third. and Hugh Mclean of Chelsea fourth. Lester Wilson of Pittsburg and F. J. Caldwell of Hartford were evenly matched in the ten-mile motor paced race. but Wilson was rather CT ,ratic in following the motor and lost pace several times. Caldwell won by nearly two laps, in 2O:4O It was stated that the Maine Sportsmen's as sociation, who sub-let the track and building to the Twentieth Century Racing association, were to tear out the track and close up the building, as the meets for the past two weeks were not q success.

be all dressed up in furs, and Sammy Green is going to be the Ice Sprite and his mother has made him an aw- fully cute suit, and Joey Brown is go- ing to be all covered with spangles and be an attendant on Santa Claus, and all the little girls are going to be dressed so pretty and sweet, and here you are going to go back and pump that horrid organ. Why, you could have been the Ice Sprite, or Jack Frost, or anything you wanted; and instead of that you went and asked MT. James if you could pump the or gan as your part in the performance. Why, Freddie, I am ashamed of you"
 Freddie wriggled and looked uncom- fortable, but finally said that some body had to pump the organ, and as none of the other boys would do it he felt called upon to give up being Jack Frost or the Ice Sprite, much as he wanted to be, and go back and pump the organ instead.
 "Why, they can hire some one," said Freddie's mother, indignantly. ''It's a shame to make the Sunday school boys pump that organ. I'll hire some one myself for that night
 Freddie said that he guessed now he had promised he'd better keep his word, and his father said: s'Let the boy alone. He IS self-sacrificing and is quite hero. I'm proud of him.
 So on Christmas night, says the Chicago Tribune, the other little boys arose and shone. and sang songs and made speeches, and struttcd like peacocks, while little Freddie sat back in the room behind the organ where all the candy that was to be distrib- uted to the audience was stored. And while the cantata proceeded little Freddie ate and ate and ate, anl, planted away half bushel of candy for future use.

M'COY BARRED OUT.

San Francisco, Jan 21.-TAe pro posed contest between Sharkey and Mccoy is off. This was definitely set tied Saturday morning when Manager Jack Gleason of the Twentieth Gen. tury club, appeared before the police committee of the board of supervisors in answer to a demand that he state his intention relative to the permit his club has for a contest in February. Gleason said that he proposed to give a fine exhibition of sparring and prom ised that ample provision would be made to see that it was conducted on the square. Supervisor Reed replied that no club would be able to give sat isfactOry assurance that any man of the reputation of Mccoy would fight on the level, and that if the club per sisted in trying to bring off the contest between Mccoy or any other man of the kind, the permit would be revoked
 Reed declared that the supervisors Had determined that fake fights should not take place in this city if it was possi- ble to prevent them. Seeing the flu tility of further attempting to arrange the match, Gleason will now try to bring Jack Root and Jack MOffatt to- gether. In this attempt the National club must be counted upon as a rival for it's bidding for the encounter.

Billy Delaney, Jetfries'S principal trainer, was very enthusiastic over Jetfries's condition. "The big fellow,'' he said, lis almost ready for battle. His in- jured arm has healed nicely, and he now has absolute control over it. The fight with Ruhlin will be short and fast. Jeffries will score knockout inside of ten rounds. 1 have trained Jim for all his big fights and can truthfully say that he was never ill better shape for contest.''

REFUSED TO PAY.
And q Suit For Injury to Character
 is the Result

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan 21.-When the Rev Father o. F. Gallagher, for twen- ty-five years pastor 2, of St John s Roman Catholic church, died, he left an estate valued at $S0,OOO, and a will in which he stated that Patrick J. Brady owed him $3,O0O for education and clothing. He said Brady had often promised to pay the money, but had never done so.
 T now solemnly declare that I re- fuse to relieve him from the obligation of payment ill full," were the priests words. Then he willed the amount to James Corcoran, and Michael Gal lagher, with instructions to collect the money.
 About $7O0OO was left to the Pitts burg diocese for the education of young men for the priesthood and the celebration of masses for the priest, The diocese refused to accept the gift because of the condition that it would have to accept and provide places for the priests so educated. Anticipating this, Father Gallagher directed that in the event of such refusal the money was to be paid to the Archbishop of Tuam, Ireland, for the same purpose. To remind them of their obligation to him, he directed that certified copies of the will shall be sent to the priests who become his beneficiaries every five wears.
 MT Brady today entered suit in the Allegheny county. court for S500OO damages for injury to character caused by the dead friest's will. He and his family were Johnstown flood sufferers. He claims that Father Gallagher vol unteered to send him to school, and did so, but did not spend anything like $3, GOO for his education.
 There was q distinct. understanding, he asserts, that the money was not to be repaid, his parents being unable to pay it. He says no demand was eyer made on him, and that the sending and reading of certified copies of the will every five years-the $7O.OOO being q perpetual endowment-will be a blot on his name for all time. Lawyers say this is the first time such suit has been entered.

THE END IS NOT YET.
Friends of Colonel Callahan Said to
 Have Not Laid Down Their Arms.

New Haven, Jan 21.-The end of the National Guard controversy which cul- minated in the election Colonel Sucher as commander of the Second regiment is not yet. The friends of Colonel Callahan have not lain down their arms and capitulated internationally. They are likely to be heard of in the legislative ring line. It is doubtful. in deed improbable, that Colonel Calla- han himself, is responsible for the at titude of his military friends, but there is no doubt that some of these have entered upon a campaign of revenge. George l. Allen of Middletown, post master of that city and paymaster on Colonel Callahan's staff, is not, it is said, to be reappointed on the staff on Colonel-elect Sucher. Therein lies the rub of the present trouble.
 Just before the recent election of Colonel of the Second regiment-in fact the day before-it is related that MT Allen and Ernest l.. Isbell, clerk of the city court of New Haven, and Lieutenant of one of the local com panies, met in one of the corridors of the Capitol at Hartford, and that the meeting was of a rather stormy char acter. It is said that MT Isbell urged upon MT Allen that the latter should get the officers of Company H of Mid dletOwn to vote against the reelection of Callahan. Allen refused and warm ly repudiated the suggestion. where upon, it is said. Isbell threatened Allen with military decapitation if Sucher should win. Sucher was victorious, as is now we'll known and Aliens head is on the block
 Now, Isbell is interested in the de- feat of Judge Dow as assistant judge of the city court, and as the fate would have it, he finds Allen opposing him. Perhaps MT Allen has no personal in- terest in the city court fight. He would naturally keep his hands off the contest, belonging as he does to an other county. but he wants to square matters. with MT Isbell and he ex- poets to be able to do so.
 Mir Allen, as secretary to Highway Commissioner Macdonald before he was appointed postmaster at Middle town,. made. a valuable political ac- quaintance in every county of the state. This acquaintance may possi- bly serve to the retention of Judge Dow and the undoing of City Court Clerk Isbeu.
