THE LATE PETER JACKSON.
Some Battles of the Great Colored
Fighter.

The news from Australia that Peter
Jackson, the greatest colored fighter
that ever lived Is no more, Is not sur
pr'ising TO those who are cognizant of
the lighters condition physically when
he departed for his old home some time
ago. When Jackson left San Francis"
co, bound for Australia, he was only
shadow OF his former self. He was
the opposite TO the man who fought
with Corbett siXty-one rounds In San
Francisco In 1891 When the dusky
boxer put up his mits against Pom
padour Jim" he was I'm his prime, and
the fact that he did not defeat Corbett
should not be counted against him. II
was said that the day before the fight
Jackson suffered a sprained ankle. and
he went through the four hours Of fight
Ing on his courage and grit.
Perhaps the greatest feat In Jack
sons career was his defeat OF Paddy
Slavin at London In 1892. Savln at
that time was champion OF England
and was considered one of the best
fighters OF the day. The fight ended
in the tenth round and from the first
TO the last round Jackson's generalship
was said TO be the prettiest seen In
the ring for many a day,
After Slavln's defeat Jackson was
made popular hero in England and he
was banqueted and lauded everywhere.
This was practically the beginning Of
the end 10 the great lighters career,
He went the way of the majority before
him and after him. He took to drink
ing and his decline was rapid. The
last few years he has been an object
of charity.
His last fight was with Jeffries in 1898
in San Francisco. The bout amounted
TO nothing more than an exhibition.
and Jackson was put out in the third
round. Some time ago jackson, whu
knew that consumption had got hold
of him, expressed a desire to see his
former home, although Australia is not
the land Of his birth. as he first saw
light in Jacksonville, Fla. Friends took

Army bin Agreement.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 23.-The con-
ferees on the Army bill reached a final
agreement on the bill late tonight, but
the measure is SO complicated and the
amendments SO numerous that the
agreement will probably not be report
ed before Friday. The Senate receded
from it's amendment providing for a
regimental rather than corps organi-
cation of the artillery arm of the SER
vice. That was considered the most
Important difference. and when a set
tlement was reached on that point no
great amount of time was needed to
come to an agreement on the other
points. In the next important contro-
versy, that concerning the detail of Of
Ulcers to staff duty, the Senate won
most of its contentious, it's amend
ments being agreed to practically as
they passed the Senate.

The Castellane SUIT.

PARIS, Jan. 2S.-The first civil tri-
bunal of the Seine has decided the
counter-suit of the Count and Countess
de Castellane against Wertheimer, the
bric-a-brac dealer, by dividing the
transactions into three series. In the
first it is declared that the purchases
were freely agreed to and in good faith
and. therefore, could not be modified.
The second series, comprising the ex-
changes, is regarded as liable to the
suspicion of usury, and the court,
therefore, has appointed three experts
to appraise the articles, final Judgment
being given after their report.
In the third series, concerning art
works belonging to Count Boni de Cas-
tellane sold by Wertheimer, the court
declares the transaction holds good,
but calls on Wertheimer to submit
proof OF the sale in order to show he
aid not realize Legitimate profit.

Visit Of the President.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2S.-President
mckinley discussed his Forthcoming
trip to California today with Senator
Bard. The President remarked that
the long period of exacting work to
which he had been subjected had told
upon him and he found it not as easy
TO recover from the grip as he had ex-
pected. He said he looked forward to
the trip to California with the keenest
pleasure. not unmixed with apprehen-
sion. as he learned of the elaborate
plans being formulated to entertain
him en- route. Reference was made to
the nature of the reception to be given
the President at San Francisco and the
ceremonies in connection with the
launching of the battleship Ohio.

QUEEN AND KING.

The character of Queen Victoria will
always brighten the pages of English
history and this despite the fact that
there has been fighting and bloodshed,
somewhere in the world and under the
red flag of her Empire, during nearly
every year of her reign. But it was not
her fault AS Constitutional queen
she could not govern her far-fiung bat
tie line; she was obliged to act In the
sphere of war under the tutelage of her
Ministry; and though it often broke her
heart she did her duty to the State.
That she died partly because of worry
over the South African war is a pa
thetic side-light on her views of the
duty of Christian States to their neigh
bors. 1t is not often that a sovereign
takes her nations conquests sorely to
heart; but a war had to be unavoidable
and just to draw any portion of queen
Victoria's sympathies. Sometimes she
was able, by her influence, to stop an
appeal to arms; and America will al
ways hold in grateful remembrance her
interference at the time of the Trent
affair with the lingo project to make
Great Britain side with the Southern
Confederacy.
1t is as q woman that the late Queen
wore her proudest diadem. There were
few moral sovereigns before her time
in English history. One of these was
her ancestor, George Ill Most Kings
and Queens were people set apart, even
above the sanctities of the home; but
Victoria made the home her altar and
gave it the ,typifying place in royal En-
glish life which it had enjoyed in the
common life of her people. AS wife and
to even those ennobled names.
The new King. Edward VII, has not,
perhaps. been an ideal Prince but that
does not necessarily imply that he will
be an ignoble King. There was mad
cap Prince of Wales whom Shakespeare
revealed at dice with Sir John Falstaff;
but when the crown became his the
boon companion of his careless youth
was made to stand aside and pay re-
spect to the person and office OF the
sovereign Edward VII is nearing sixty
years of age; he is serious at last; his
training has been royal; perhaps he Will
hold his mighty post in way that will
honor his mothers unsullied name.
Let us hope SO indeed. The American
of Anglo-Saxon blood has nothing but
high desires and good wishes for him.
Three of his direct ancestors We're SOW
ereigns over colonial Americans; his
mother held sway in American hearts;
he himself has been the guest and
friend of the United States. 1t is but
echoing common Anglo Saxon senti-
ment. therefore. to wish him a long and
glorious reign.

Mortality.

Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?
Like a swift heeting meteor fast flying cloud2
A fash of the lightning, a break OF the wave,
He passeth from life to his rest in the grave.
The leaves Of the oak and the willow shall fade,
Be scattered around and together be lail.
And the young, and the old, and the ,oW, and the
high
Shall molder to dust and together shall lie.
The infant a mother attended and loved,
The mother that infants affection vino proved.
The husband that mother, and infant vino blessed
Each, all, away to their dwellings OF rest.
The hand of the king that the scepter hath borne
The brow of the priest that the inter hath worn,
The eye of the sage and the heart of the brave
Are hidden and lost in the depths of the grave.
The peasant, whose lot to sow and to reap
The herdsman, who climbed with his goats to the
steep;
The beggar, who wandered in search of his bread
Have faded away like the grass that we tread.
So the multitude goes like the flower or the weed
That withers away to let others succeed.
So the multitude comes, even those we behold,
To repeat every tale that has often been told.
For we are the same our fathers have been
We see the same sights our fathers have seen,
We drink the same stream and view the same sun
And run the same course our fathers have run.
The thoughts we are thinking our fathers would
think
From the death we are shrinking our fathers
would shrink,
To the life we are clinging they also would cling,
But it speeds from US all, like bird on the
wing.
They loved but the story we cannot unfold;
They scorned, but the heart of the naughty is
cold;
They grieved, but no wall from their slumber will
come;
They joyed, but the tongue of their gladness is
dumb.
They died--aye they died--and we things that
are now,
And make in their dwellings a transient abode,
Meet the things that they met their pilgrim-
age road.
Yea, hope and dependency, pleasure and pain,
We mingle together in sunshine and rain,
And the smile and the tear, the song and the
dirge,
Still follow each other. like surge upon surge.
Ts the wink of an eye, tits the draft of a BREATH
From the blossom of health to the paleness Of
death,
From the gilded saloon to the bier and the
shroud.
Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud2
William Knox.

: ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
The Latest Notions Present Some At.
traetive Draperies.

The Latest Notions Present Some At.
tractive Draperies.
The window hangings, drapories
in general and other accessories that
make for the adornment of the
house beautiful and that the art
decorators are now showing are six
furious to a degree. 1t is noticeable
that there is as much latitude allow
ed in the selection of draperies by
the woman who would be fashiona-
BILE, so far as her house is concern
ed, as there is in the choice Of her
wardrobe.
The holland or plain linen shade
that for so many years remained un-
adorned save for a more or less
elaborate fringe is now transformed
into a thing of beauty by fringe
of applique lace and insertion of the
same in artistic pattern, In one
style of holland line shade seen
recently the applique design was on
a foundation Of black net, but the
color was not apparent when the
light shone through the shade, and
the combination of the light buff
linen and the lace was exceedingly
effective.
Brussels net with broad border
of silk applique on heavy net repre-
sents one of the latest designs in
handsome lace curtains, although
Arabian lace is still the favorite in
the more costly window hangings.
In the line of heavier drapery for
the window or for portiere use the
silk curtains in the most delicate
shades, with embroidered edge in
silk to match and applique or silk
in self color, are exquisite, particu-
larly in the shades of pale pink and
blue that are just a little darker
than the pastel colorings.
+ For summer use in particular, but
not necessarily confined to this par
.ticular season, are the Scotch mad
ras curtains, which are now found
on the list. They can hardly be
considered as costly or luxurious
draperies, but they are beautiful in
the finer grades, which drape as
gracefully as crepe de chine and are
really as soft as this poplar dress
material. To mention the color
combinations would be to catalogue
all the possible variations of yellow
and brown and red and blue and
green and pink in artistic effect.

When the Rance Is RESTING.

In disseminating the coal range for
the summer some care is needed for
its proper preservation. 1t seems
almost trite to say that the last fire
should be dumped and the ashes and
dust entirely removed, but expert
ence has shown that this caution is
needed. The ovens should be taken
out and the spaces in which they fit
thoroughly cleaned and creased.
Grease the oven also and the range
implements-shaker, shovel, poker,
etc.-together with the iron CRATES
and such other parts of the range as
are liable to rust. These triAing
precautions will save time and mon
ey when the range is to be put into
commission again and should be OBJ
served whether the house is to be
closed or not.
