DEcADENcE OF sADDLE-BAGs.
The Handy Carriers of ola Are Not
Often Seen I'm These Days of
Good Roads.

1.-THE old-time saddle bags used by
country doctors have two arch enc
mics in the drug store and good roads, .
said the man from Texas, according to
the New York Times. There are not
nearly so many saddle bags used now
adays as there were rs years ago. They
are one of the commodities that the
increase in the country's population
is gradually driving out of existence.
'Why, can remember that when
was a youngster it was common thing
for a doctor to have his patients scat
tered over circuit of 40 miles or more.
Often there would not be drug store
in all that region, and the only reme-
dies at hand were the medicines car
ried in saddle bags. This was the condi-
tion throughout the greater part Of
the entire country. Now, however, viii
lagos have multiplied. and each has
added that keystone of modern civili-
cation, the corner drug store, where all
the inhabitants of the neighborhood
except those that are exceedingly ru-
raj take their prescriptions and have
compounded the tonics that cure their
ills.
Good roads are hardly less impor,
tant as factor in the decadence of
saddle bags. The time was when it
was impossible for doctor to drive
over the well-nigh impossible sloughs
called public roads, and saddle bags
were a necessity. Now the condition
of the highways makes it possible for
a man to visit most of his patients in
buggy, in which case the hand medi-
cine chest is substituted for the old
fashioned saddle bags.
There are more saddle bags used in
Missouri and Texas to-day than any
other states in the union. In many
sections of those commonwealth ply
sicians still travel great distances, but
suppose the time is not far of when
saddle bags will become back num-
Der, even in those sparsely settled dis
tricts.
$50 far as the practitioner is con-
cerned, this change in fashion is to be
for doctor who has never
ridden across country with saddle bags
Tapping at his horses sides has never
tasted admiration in it's highest form.
To the farm people who stare after
him with open-mouthed awe and won
der as he dashes past he is the apoth- 4
eosis of human accomplishments, and
the pleasure he derives from such

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

The remains of gigantic human be-
ings have been found in some caves
near Grimaldi, the property of the
prince of Monaco.
Oil fuel is now successfully used on
four steamers of the Hamburg COM
pany run in the eastern trade, and spe-
cially built for this fuel.
The famines in the interior of Rus
STA are coincident with decline in
the humidity, due in great measure to
the destruction of forests.
In Humboldt and Mendocino coun-
ties, CAL, there are &c sawmills at
work upon the famous redwood for
ests, which are gradually disappear
ing, the value of the output for the
year 1900 being nearly $4,000. 900.
Among the articles of American
manufacture which are still holding
their own in Europe are typewriters,

can capital and energy is shown once

used throughout the village.
Gross earnings of the railroads in
1901, according to the Chronicles re-
turns, show an increase of about $149,-

THE ALLEY MANS
STRATEGY

Tim was an alley man. Everybody
who lives on the North Side knows
what an alley man is. He is the man
who does odd jobs for dozen fam
lilies and sleeps in the furnace-room of
the particular family which has shown
the greatest federation for his pres
ence and to which he owes paramount
allegiance. The alley man generally
drifts into the neighborhood, per-
forms some service that gives him
title to recognition and thereafter he
fs fixture, gradually extending his
field Of operations until he has ten or
dozen households which call upon
him for occasional service and one
household which he calls his own.
Tim the alley man did service one
day for 15-year-old Jimmie Rutgers,
who lived with his parents in colo
NAL house on Astor street, colonial
though it was built only ten years ago;
but of such is the kingdom of swelldom.
Jimmie Rutgers was driving alone. A
buckle broke and with only one rein at
his command Jimmie, though plucky
and good driver, could do nothing,
and the horse bolted. Tim stopped the
runaway before much harm was done
to either vehicle or driver, but in doing
Il Tim got smashed rib. Thereafter
he was protege Of the Rutgers. He
had a fine room in the steam-heated
stable, and would have been put in
charge of the horses had 1t not been
that Tim had an occasional weakness
for gin. He ate at the Rutgers kitch-
en- table, did about three errands
week for the household and did about |
as many more for each Of dozen 9TH |
or families living along the fashionable |
thoroughfare.
One-half the errands that the alley |
man runs are at the request of the |
cook, the laundress or one of the mi- |
nor maids. This makes the alley man
welcome in every kitchen, and It also
accounts largely for the fact that one |
household is generally kept pretty well I
informed about the 6oings Of the other
households. Tim. however, wasn't
much of a gossip. He was getting on

how great the service rendered might

THE OLD. SWEET DREAM.

We say Loves dream is over
The passion and the pain;
Sinner, saint and rover
He shall not dream againi
But to red deeps of May
Still he sfngeth us away:
It's The same old world. my masters. that
We dreamed Of yesterday!
The same old ways and weathers-
Green fields and rain-sweet lanes;
With letters light as feathers
He hath a world in chains!
Still. still. the blooms are shed.
And womans lips are red,
And not the kings gold matches that
which crowns her queenly head.
And Love shall grieve and leave US,
And speed the shafts that kill;
And pitiless, deceive us.
Yet be our soiace still.
He singeth us away
To meadows sweet with May
IT'S the same old world, my masters, that
we dreamed Of yesterday!

A CURIOUS SPECTACLE.
Traveller in Thibet Describes his Ex-
perience Under . Cascade Of
Mud and stones.

Waterfalls are plentiful, but "muo
fall" is less common. In Mount ON
and Beyond, A Record of Travel on the
Thibetan Border" Mr.. Archibald Lit
tie describes such fall, upon which
he came and under, which he had IL
pass in his travels.
"Asortofrecessi in the mountainsidc,
apparently scooped out by the river,
was filled by a huge whirlpool, into
which from above came a steady fall

rocks, which bounded over the mar
row footway and thence down the low
er slope with splash into the boiling
river.
I'VE sat down on the rock at the bot
tom and watched the spectacle.
We had been told beforehand of all
sorts of impossible dangers, especially
since the heavy rains, but we were not
prepared for running the gauntlet of
such cannonade as this. Never hav-
ing seen anything of the kind in our
previous experience of mountain coun-
tries, we should much have liked to
climb up the mountainside, had that
been possible, and investigate the
source of this extraordinary stream,
which flowed on with steady persist
ency that fascinated our gaze. But
unfortunately we could not afford to
loiter by the way and miss our daily
stages.
Presently some coolies came along.
and we watched with intense interest
how they would pass the fall. The
path was not foot wide, and in fact
was only retained as path at all by
the traffic over it, by which way was
trodden in the shay slope as fast as
It dribbled away. A big rock lined the
inside Of the track on one side of the
fall, and under the lee of this the men
crouched. They watched for an ex-
ceptionally heavy shower, and when
this was over made bolt for it. This
maneuver was repeated by each indi-
gidual, and he was greeted by the
laughter of his companions as he sue
'essfully ran the gauntlet. The stones

San Francisco, Feb. 2. - In the sew
enth round of what was to have been
a twenty-round encounter betwean
George Gardner of Lowell, Mass, and
Jack Root of Chicago, the latter was
awarded the decision here last night
upon the claim OF foul. In a hurricane
fight that developed Gardner as the ag-
81 essor, but Root as the superior box
er, the Lowell man was beaten and
finally forfeited upon a blow conceded
by a majority of the spectators TO have
been q straight foul. Gardner found In
no such easy opponent as Kid
Carter had been, nor did Root find IN
Gardner so easily handled a man as
Byers, when the two met here. Gard
ner, however, fought on the outside in
a wild and uncertain style, while Root
fought on the inside d~eterminedly n
well. Gardner suffered the disadvant-
age Of having his left eye practically
closed by a right-hand punch in the
second round, and he vas never him
self after that. In the fourth round.
however, he missed his only oppor-
tunity during the battle. The Lowell
man delivered q vigorous right-hand
punch that caught Root apparently be-
hind the ear and the Chicago man
went down. Root took the count 10
four seconds. then held

saving himself for nearly half a min
ute. In the sixth round Gardner was
fighting low and the claim of foul was
made uron two occasions but ignored
by Referee Phil Ward. When the
round closed Gardner was plainly in
distress and stood small chance OF
winning. az.
The. seventh round opened with Root
boring in ~methodically and Gardner
fighting Wild in evident desperation. 1t
was then, after one minute and forty
six seconds. of this sort of work that
Gardner started a left reach for tho
stomach and caught Root squarely In
the groin. The Chicago man sank to
the floor with a groan and Gardner was
dragged to his corner by his trainer,
Aleck Greggains. Referee Ward at
once awarded the decision to Root, and
Gardner, approaching him, protested
that the blow was purely accidental.
The 1000 people gathered in the Me-
chanics pavilion Kissed Gardner as he
left for his dressing room. and APP
plauded Root with vigor when he had
sufficiently recovered to leave the ring.
