BOXING ON THE DECLINE.
National Sp orting Club of London Of
fering Smaller Purses.

New York, Nov. THE boxing game
is evidently on the decline in England
The National Sporting club of London
has decided to reduce the limit of
rounds in boxing contests from fifteen
to ten and to offer the boxers, no mat
ter how important they may be, purses
of only $780, This announcement has
been received by Harry Harris, the Chi
cago bantamweight, from Philadelphia
Jack O'Brien, who is the champion of
all champions in England.
Harris received a letter from OBrien
q few days ago which contained the
above mentioned news. O'Brien says
that if he had not begged some of the
English boxers to meet him this sum-
mer he would have almost starved.
Pedlar Palmer and a local boxer named
Williams, according to O'Brien, will
soon meet in a ten-round bout for the
purse offered by the club. 1t is possible
now that Charley Mitchell and Kid Nc
Coy will open a boxing club.

NEWSPAPER OPINION


Many persons have been rudely
shocked to find that a flower for which
perhaps they gave a considerable sum
and which they took 40 be genuine
proved subsequently to be artificial in
every particular Within our own ex-
perienco not long ago the attention OF
la man sitting at dinner was
drawn to the fact that his shirt front
and coat were gradually being covered
with stroaks of brilliant red color.
lie was wearing a bright carnatiOn in
his buttOnhOle which at guile a shOr,
distance, as it appeared subsequently
deceived perfectly. The flower had
just been watered to freshen il and il
was then seen that on the water drops
detaching themselves they were of a
brilliant red color while the "carna-
ton" gradually assumed the faint
variegated appearance owing to some
OF the cOloring matter being washed
out. General Incredibly was expressed
that at first sight the flower could be
anything but real. A laboratory ex-
animation, however soon bqought the
whole truth to light, and the results
are remarkable ana certainly a credit
10 the ingenuity Of the designer.
There was not a vestige OF a carna-
ton about il. The Flower" consisted
OF slices of turnip neatly cut and dyed
with acid magenta; the stems and
leaves were Of twisted cloth dyed a
dark green with chromium; the bloom
was a very fine starch powder deli
cately busted over the stems and
leaves and the support to the whole
clever fabric was concealed iron
wire. A synthetic amber-colored oil
know as "oeillet" completed the decep-
ton in giving a perfume wonderfully
initiative OF the genuine carnation.
Altogether we can hardly conceive q
cleverer deceit and it is satisfactory to
be able ito add that so far as our obser-
vations went it is free from positive
harm except to wearing apparel.
On carefully searching the various
materials for irritating substances and
poisonous metals we could not obtain
the slightest evidence that such were
present. 1t is clearly possible, how
ever, that the cOlors used for artificial
flowers may contain substances injuri-
GUS to health-such as, for example

From the Cleveland Leader
There is nothing which would suit
the average schoolbOy better, and
which would more surely conduce tn
good citizenship, than systematic
reading of patriotic books
II there is anything the average
American boy likes it is to read OF the
herOism of the men who have served
this republic in the wars for the essab-
lishment and the maintenance of lib
erty, and the boy of foreign birth or
parentage is just as sure as the native
American youth to imbibe patriotism
from the reading of books telling the
story OF America.
Events within recent years have
demonstrated the necessity for such q
course Of reading, moreover. Loose.
.tongued politicians have done their ut
most to shake the faith of American!
in the perpetuity of republican institu
tons and to convince the Young ant
minimizing that the Declaration of In.
dependence has been disregarded am
the Constitution spat upon ant
wrenched in pieces. It will take many
lessons in patriotism to counterfeit the
effect of the harmful work OF dema'
gogues on the stump.
