BALLADE OF BEAUcAIRE.

Beatrice Hanscom in January Critic.)
Back in the days when bellies and beauX
Still called their porters and their chair,
When Nash, in autocratic pose.
Ruled Ger the Pump-room revels there,
You came to Bath. Monsieur Beaucaire,
As barber-gamster, yet you chose
To masque as Duke of far Nowhere
All for the crimson Of a rose.
Gaily you chaffed that worst of foes,
The titled cheat you held in snare;
Softly you sued till Heart-of-SnOWs
Warmed into loves own sDring-time
fair
Then came the onslaught Debonair,
Brave. and keen-skilied ven fought til
close,
Though where your wsistcoat showed a
tear.
Blossomed the crimson of rose.
Tainted and scorned. Yet bitter blows
AIy Lady Mary had to bear,
As at the last Fate did disclose
How proud a name was yours to wear,
When. facing Oh the candles flare.
She saw die out loves roseate CLOVIS,
While to the fiddles wandering air
Crumbied the crimson Of a rose
ENVOY.
Prince-with score Of names to spare
Strange are the truths the masquer
knows
Strange what a man will do-and dare
Just Tor the crimson OF rose.

Four National League Clubs Have
Signed Agreement to That Effect.
From what is deemed an authoritative
source, it is learned that the four clubs
behind A. G. Spaiding in his fight for
the National league presidency have
signed an ironclad agreement TO stick
together in the present fight. no matter
what comes ont of it. In other words,
if peace is not arranged. they viii play
out q four-clUb schedule next summer.
Assured of this stand. Mr.. Spalding ar
ranged for a joint meeting between his
faction and the National league. the
American league and the minor leagues,
and then went TO New Mexico. leaving
the anagement of affairs for the present
with G. d. White at Chicago. Mr. White
was for some time president of the East
eTn league.
Baseball enthusiasts. who have the in
terest of the sport a great deal more at
heart than the quarrels of the club own
ers express themselves faVorably toward
the peace measure proposed by John b
Day. and hope TO see some good come out
of it.
A. G. Spalding Is not in the east to
sneak for himst = but it is understood
that ne will not )untenance any measure
that does not provide for the elimination
of Andrew Freedman as a factor in base
bali politics. Mr. Freedman, on the other
hand. announces that he will have moth
ing to do with a plan that involves Mr..
Spalding as part of its personal machin-

man rs concerns the other and il was
suggested that if the league ever adj
iusted its differences II appeared as il

YOUNG CoRBETTs LATEST.
Has Spine Blanket Which He Wears
Before FipnLs.

OClOIe rig MS
William Rothwell, the Young Corbett"
Of pugiliStic fame, has fallen into the
ways of all fighters, having developed an
aole-boded superstition. lie has a spine
blanket which he wears before all OF
his fights, and to the mystic power of
which he attributes much of the glory Of
his victories He has worn the blanket
in his training for the last six fights ia
which he has been engaged, every one Of
which has resulted in his favor. So i'm
plicit is his faith In the great powers Of
the blank Il that ne strapped 1t to him
before the McGovern fight and lay in his
training CHARTERS for three blissful hours
while the medicine in the blanket worked
upon his physical we'll being.
The affair was constructed for the Tight
err by ". A. Rutherford. a dancing mas
ter of Denver. Mr.. ROthWell had been
complaining of cold feet and sought the
advice of Mr.. Rutherford. That gentle
man said that the cure was easy. He
thereupOn constructed sort of up-and-
down bandage, built much on the order
of a porous plaster without the sticking

young mans back, and seen in position
might have been thought to be an anti
dOte or cure for the yellow streak the
fighter was curreltly reported to possess
along the main bone column or his Struc-
tura. ROCKWELL clares that the stuff
which is put in the bandage and which
eXudes through, up and down MS spine
has cured his tendency TO sweaty ana
cold feet and has also implicit faith IN
its anti-hoodOo powers. When he went
to New York to appear in court he LETT
his spine blanket in Denver. Arriving
in ST. Louis, his first anxiety was Tor the
safety of that article. He telegraphed
10 John Corbett to send the blanket to
St Louis at once. As John Corbett eX-

fighter.

GOLF PLAYER COMING.
English Professional After American
Dollars

London, Jan. 25.-The announcement
that the former golf champion, James
Braid. is to visit the United States for
six months prompts the Outlook TO say:
The sum to be paid him is not made
public, but it is one no professional
golfer could ever hope to make in a year
in England. Nobody will grudge Braid
the reward for his skill, but many golfers
will regret this downward step in golf.
Every day golf loses more of its old
character as healthful game, and tends
to become a business of pot hunting.
The aim of many is to make it a cate
money or travelling expenses pursuit for
men who ought TO be better employed. In
their games, as in everything else the
Americans will have nothing but the best
that dollars can procure.
