There was a slugging l

There was slugging match accord
 ing to Marquis of DOberry rules down on the river front last Sunday which drew some claret and a big crowd of spectators. The contest was between barber and a counter-hopper. The
 barber contracted to put his opponent into the arms of Morpheus inside of eleven rounds, but according to wire less reports from the ringside the knight of the razor had a close shave from being put to sleep himself. The other man, however, had big advant- age in stature and weight, and taken all together the tonsorial artist did very well to stay the limit. He claims, however, that his opponent curtailed his wind and strength by his persistent efforts to clinch and acquire resting place on his neck and shoulders; the barber says he would have honed the calico wrapper down to a frazzle if he hadn't acted this way. It may be the two will come together again, but more probable that they won't.

The Sun of last week contained quite an interesting extract from letter written by Charley Meadows, in Los Angeles, to his brother J. D. Meadows of Yuma, on the subject of the Tiburon expedition. He says, among other things: "I have set September 1st as the date for sailing, but doubt If will get off before the 5th. I intend to take about forty people with me, the greater part of this number having al- ready joined. am negotiating for a fine boat-in fact, the best and swiftest steamboat on the coast. If I am suc- cessful in getting this boat, will sail from San Pedro around Lower Cali fOrnia via Guaymas; if not, will take my two gasoline beats from Yuma.

Connecticut is not the only one. New Hampshire is to have Constitutionai Convention. But while it has been dis covered in Connecticut that the cities have not enough representatives, m New Hampshire it has been discovered that they have too many. The New Hampshire house, with a membership of approximately four hundred, is the largest legislative body to be found In any State. The preponderance of mu- nicipal representation in the Granite State is indicated by the fact that the representatives to Concord Ward Five alone sends eight Nashua's appor- tionment numbers twenty, while Con- cord has thirteen and Portsmouth nine. The unit of representation in the house is six hundred, and for every twelve hundred population in excess of six hundred q town or ward l IS entitled to all dluitipiidl itl'i NoNi- tative Small towns whose popula- tion falls below six hundred are enti- tied to representation only for such a ratio of the time as their census bears to six hundred For instance. under
 this limitation, during the next ten l years the town of Benton will be per mitted to elect representatives only | in 1904 and 1908, the towns of Els
 worth, Randolph and Waterville only
 in 1904. and tAe towns of L;vermore
 and Windsor only in 1908. During the ] other portions of the decade these
 towns will have neither voice nor vote | in the house.
 We congratulate New Hampshire
 on the Reform that is in sight ant
 we hope it will come as gracefully and easily as Reform comes in Connecticut

Not few people of this State are in-
 terested in the condition of the oyster
 industry ir Maryland. Almost twenty years ago Maryland had an Oyster Commission which was appointed by the legislature! This Commission re-
 ported that the oyster beds of the State were being exhausted so rapidly
 that in the course of few years the industry would materially decline. That
 this Commission knew what it was
 talking about is now made plain by
 another official report which declares
 that the last oyster season filled the en-
 tire State with apprehension as to the prospective loss of the entire oyster pack, it having been probably the smallest ever known in the history of the State This was not due to any fault of the packers, nor to the failing off of the demand for steamed or raw oysters, but to the failure of the catch hf oysters in the Chesapeake bay and ifs tributaries.

What little attention to naval pre- paration can do for a country was shown in our war with Spain. England has at least one man who sees the ne- cessity of having the ships ready; Rear Admiral Lord Charles Beresford told the London Chamber of Commerce yes terday that initial naval reverses simi- lar to the military reverses experienced in South Africa would cause disasters which would be irreparable and eter- nal in their effect It was lack Of organization which led to the remount and other scandals His plan for ln- string naval efficiency included the ad- dition to the Board of Admiralty of Naval War. Lord of the Admiralty, who would be responsible for placing before Parliament the full requirements of the navy. The government, Lord Beres- ford added, ought to purchase coal fields at home and in the colonies. All war ships, useless for fighting purposes or valueless on account of lack of speed, ought to be abolished. The reserves ought to be reorganized, and as early as possible, the whole war fleet should be mobilized, to test it's organization and discover it's weak points.
 England will do well if she acts on this conretent and timely advice. It would be a sad day for her if she should suddenly discover that she couldn't rule the wave,

The cof- fee should be of the best and served with whipped cream. It should be un- derstood that at a "Kaffee'' the guests bring their work and make an after noon of it."

4 F.Ii1HFUE WOUAD.

Faithful are the wounds of a friend, saith the Scripture. The Church IS nowadays getting some very faithful wounds. For instance, the Rev pr Rainsford of New York thus talks about it: In relation to large soclal questions the churches are still in re- treat. Who was it opposed the opening of the museums on Sunday? Who op- nosed the opening of libraries on Sun dav? Who tried to prevent the run hing of cars on Sunday to give people a whiff of fresh air? Who opposes the games of boys and girls on Sunday? The churches couple of boys get into vacant ot on a Sur day aft rnoo1, but the cops soon find them out, ana the bows have to hide their ball and bat or run off. Whether right or wrong. the bows think the churches are responsl- ble. Is it reasonable to expect thai boys will grow up with a love of sun day school when the churches say to them, You shall not do this and you shall not do that; you shall not do any thing on Sunday but go to church.? We are trying to do Christs work with 1 the sword instead of the cross. This has led to the passage of unfairly dis eliminating laws and laws in advance | of public intelligence.
 If the chief object in life is to have "a
 good time on Sunday the outlook i' clearing and cheering.

Some four years ago, when the Holy Shroud in the Cathedral of Turin was exhibjted along with other relics, nhotographer obtained permission to nf1otograph it. On coming to develop tha plate he was amazed to find that fhe shroiid bore an unmistakable hu- han image, which was invisible to the Eve while the relic was exposed. The plate fel into the hands of one of the jacturare of the French Academy or Sciences. His explanation of the mir dele" takes account of the fact that 1,itumen and other substances used in fine East in preparing dead bodies pos sess photogenic properties-that is, they can reproduce images under the infiu- sn5a of NGht. Linen so treated was ffuud to give clear photographic re- production of coins that had been wrapped in it. The experimenter does not necessarily dismiss the idea of re- cent human intervention in the pro auction of the phenomenon. Mean while. steps are being taken to induce the Archbishop of Turin to authorize further photograph of the shroud to be taken.
