HAPPIER OF ACCIDENTS
That Was the Story at the Races Last
 Night.

Philadelphia, Jan 31.-There was a Dig disappointment in the bicycle races last night at the Secona regiment ar mory and the sport received black eye just when 1t needs the most en- couragement The scheduled race was q 15-lnile motor-paced event in which Monroe, Leander and Freeman were to ride. The management had provided an opening event. an unlimited pursuit race between Turville and Rutz.,
 The trouble began when Monroe showed up in a condition that did not warrant his going on the track. A substitute had to be found. so it was decided to call off the pursuit race, and Rutz took Monroe slplace in the 15-mile events About g o'clock the race start cd and Leander led at the end of the first mile. Rutz then@pul1ed up and had a slight advantage at the end of the second mile. At the beginning Le- ander and Freeman lost their pace sim ultaneously and Rutz rode around them. Freeman quit the game then and there. Leander caught his pace and followed after Rutz, who was a lap and third in the lead.
 At the beginning of the eighth milo Rutz's wheel went wrong. He dis mounted and getting new mount went after Leander, who had secured q lead of four laps. 'Rutz rode pluckily and did his best to regain some of the lost ground until the early part of the eleventh mile, when his motor slipped it's strap and went out of business. Rutz plugged along unpaced with the hope that Lawson and his motor would pick him up. Lawson got his motor out but could not get 1t to work, so Rutz finished out the race alone, fin ishing 16 laps behind Leander. The tyne was 24 min 'tes B 3-5 seconds.

 FIGHTS IND FIGHTERS.
Louisville Does Not Want Any
 of the Big Boxers.

Tim Hurst Says the Little Fellows are
 Good Enough for Him-Tommy
 Ryan Knocks Out George Green
 Corbett to Fight Layigne-One Gov
 ernor After the Fighters.
 Citizens of Louisville will not nave an opportunity of witnessing battle between James J. Jeffries and Thomas Sharkey for the heavyweight pugilisuc championship and share of the re- ceipts. At least Timothy Hurst, matchmaker of the Southern Athletlc club of that city, will not give the ngnt under any conditions.
 None of that game for me" said Hurst yesterday. What would be the use of trying to bring off such 2 fight there? The first thing I knew some prominent citizen would be writing let. ters to tbe governor of Kentucky pro- testing against the brutal sport.
 Things are going along nicely there now, and we believe 1t good policy to let we'll enough alone. Fights like the one between McGovern and Dave Sul- livan on Washington's birthday are big enough battles, and many people en- joy them better than heavyweight con tests. There seems to be a prejudice against battles between the big men in that section. as was shown when the proposed Jeffries- Ruhlin meeting was prevented by the governor of Ohio.
 ''As to making an offer for q fight between Sharlev and Peter Maher. the Southern Athletic club will certainly not even consider ia In the first place Maher does not evince violent han kering for another figLt. so far as am ah1e. to discover. Even if we thought if could be brought off with out any trouble wit the state authori- ties, we would not have it."
 GARDNER FAvORITE OVER ROOT
 San Francisco Jan 21-The betting from 10 to 8 to 10 to 9. but still in favor of Gardner. Roots admirers in Chicago are sending out money and are not particular about odds either. The story which has been going the rounds concerning Roots fear of Gardner Is simply absurd When Gardner won lFoIH 1houalL ana, h00t rom h1d Car ter there was an effort made to match the men. but Gardner and not Root re- fused to sign. Gardner's victories out here have given him more confidence in himself. end he now fights Root at 165. the weight he refused to make be- fore. Both men have finished training and ara in perfect condition. Joe Chovnski. the California heavvweight. has been signed to meet the winner of this fight on February 29 at catch weights. The Yosemite club, which will hold the fight. has the promise of both Root and Gardner to meet Joe next month

CHEAP MEAT FOR UNCLE SAM.
Government Is Able to Buy Beef at
Lower Rates.

Washington, May Enquiry at the
war department has disclosed the fact
that despite the great increase in the
price Of beef the army is now making
contracts for the next fiscal year by
which 1t will get beef at number Of
military posts at lower rates than 1t
has been paying under the contracts
arranged year ago.
Dealers in some Of the big cities have
offered to furnish beef to nearby army
posts at prices lower than those of last
wear. and in most cases where there is
an increase it Is very small In some
cases the increase over last years
prices is due not to any OF the causes
given by the beef men, but to the fact
that chilled beef has been substituted
for freshly slaughtered beef, which is
of course, cheaper.
Figures taken from the official rec
ords Of the subsistence department fur
nish striking comparison with the
prices demanded of private consumers.
Contracts have already been made for
supplying with beef three posts near
New York city, and in two OF these
there is a reduction of the price as COM
pared with a year ago. AT Fort wood,
on Bedloes island, the prices for the
coming fiscal year will be 1888 cents
pound, against S.25 cents for the year to
end on June 80. At Fort Wadsworth,
on Staten Island, the price just fixed by
contract is TIA cents, against 7.19 cents
under last years contract. AT Fort Col
umbus. New York harbor' the price
will be Increased from 1863 cents to
T.S7 cents.
In Washington, where there has been
a marked rise in the price of beef to
private consumers, the subsistence de-
partment of the army has made con-
tract with local dealer to furnish beef
to the Washington barracks at IA cents
a pound, against III cents under last
years contract.
The official records show also that
beef dealers are now offering to furnish
supplies at lower rates than last year
to army posts near the cities OF Atlanta,
Pittsburg, Baltimore, Troy, New Bed
foyd and New Orleans.

| Adam as man but as an ideal. Paul
| in his epistle to the Romans, when he
referred to Adam, said what he be-
| lieved to be true. My conceptions OF
the existence of Adam differ entirely
from these of Paul. My views on the
prophecy of Isaiah are that Isaiah did
not possess the spirit of prophecy of a
mediumistic sort. but he outlined the
future by a kind of deductive reason
ing. In other words, Isaiah did not see
an actual Christ, but conceived some
personification of ideal qualities. What
think of Tsaiah--in all this connec-
toni think of all biblical prophecy"
Mr.. Noll had been a student at the
Union Theological Seminary over
which Rev. DR.. Charles Cuthebert Hall
presides as president. He is a worker
in the Bohemian church, and has been
for twelve years close student. 1t is a
rule in the Presbyterian church that
any one can ask applicants for the
ministry questions. The old ministers
fired questions at the young applicant
SO fast that he became confused. They
got after him about Adam and he kept
to his original answer.
Professor Francis Brown, who is the
acting president of the Union Theologi-
cay Seminary, says he knows of three
young men ordained within the last
year who hold to the belief that caused
Noll to be barred from the ministry.
Professor Brown asserts that Noll was
q studious young man, very earnest and
very sincere.
The debate In Elizabeth became so
heated that the moderator summarily
adjourned the session. He told every
body to go home and pray over the
question. and come back on the 2Sth
prepared to vote as their consciences
dictated. AT the meeting of the Pres
hyterian general assembly next month
the question of whether Adam shall be
considered a myth officially will be
taken up. In the meantime the minis
tiers who are coming are carrying out
the injunction of the moderator, who
said:
Pray with Mr.. Noll: wrestle with
God for him; moderate him: turn him
up and give him a dressing"
That DR.. Parkhurst is not alone
among eminent ministers in support
ing the young men who think Adam
myth is shown by the opinion of DR..
Robert Collyer, who said: Personally
/ do not believe in the literal truth of
the story of Adams creation in the
first chapters in the book of Genesis.
Hhe first chapter is to me a poem, the
rest comes to us as a legend, or what
you will, but not literal truth"

more comfortably If there had been in
this or some other car an apartment

can be said. that such is the general
opinion now in many eastern cities and
on many eastern railroads, that con-
