Aire Caliente.

"A man is no good if he has no enc
miles, is often heard said.
1t is the same with a standard ar
ticle of any manufacture. But the
man that is decried because some one
has a private grudge against him does
not suffer in the least. Those who
know him are ever ready to speak well
of him-because spite is so evidently
the spirit that moves his biased critics.
Also, the article of trade which is ac-
cepted as standard-The Douglas Pat,
ent Closet, for instance-has its few
bigotted, biased and jealous soreheads,
that, prompted by envy, talk bitterly
and the only disturbance is a thermo-
gaseous harmless, effusion.

After many weary months the second
bridge on Nuuanu Avenue is approach
ing completion. That it is very solid
structure no one can deny, but that it
has been one of the most expensive
pieces of work which has been done for
the public every one will readily agree.
Who ever the designer was he made a
bridge which was unsuitable to the To-
cation, and though the structure itself

piling up of water which viii overflow

HAD AN INTERESTING CAREER.

HAD AN INTERESTING CAREER.
The life of the novelist Charles Reade,
which is to be published soon in Lon
don, will be of uncommon interest be-
cause it is said TO be in large part an
autobiography. While Reade's career
was not so picturesquely prosaic as that
OF Trollope,-whose matter of-fact au-
photography surpasses in interest most
of his novels, admirable as they are
Reade was singularly robust and vital
personality, and his life should be high
ly entertaining. Not to speak of his
fads, like house building and violin col
lecting, and his strenuous literary car
eer, which involved a prodigious and
systematic gathering of material,
Reade came into contact with most of
the notable men of this time, and was
involved in many controversies, in
which he showed himself what Alan
Breck would call bonny fighter.

PEACE MEETING is OFF
JOHNSON POsTPONEs THE CONFER
ENCE OF COMMITTEES.
National Committee Must BE Clothed
with Power 20 Decide-May
Never Compromise.

CHICAGO. Jan. 3.-"For the present there
will not be a meeting of the peace commit
tees of the American and National
leagues" said President Ban Johnson OF
the former organization to-day. AT the
first conference IN New York." he contin-
ued, lit was understood that the commit
teef from the National League had full
power TO dispose of all questions that might
frise. Since then it has developed that the
(League committee had no authority to act
concIusively on anything. Two weeks ago
wrote Chairman Herman that If the Ma
tional League would clothe its committee
with full power we would meet them and
strive for fair and just settlement. but
not until that action had been taken. Mr..
Herman wired me that he would have his
committee vested with full power. He has
made an earnest effort. but failed. We
vert mindful of the fact that the patrons
Of the game the country over wanted peace,
and to serve the best interests of baseball
we were prepared to do our part TO bring
about a peace agreement. A conference
with committee which has limited power
would be waste of time and energy.
The reply OF Chairman Herman, or the
National League committee, to the COM
munication of Ban Johnson that the old
League would have to vote its representa-
tves full power TO negotiate terms OF peace
before they would be treated with by the
American League was received to-day, but
johnson would not make public the letter.
There are too many ifs in the letter TO
suit me- he said, land there Will be no
meeting of the two committees Monday,
although there may be later in the week,
but that is uncertain.

BRUSH WON'T TALK.
Ii Is Up to Garry Hermann to Answer
Johnson's Statement.

John 7. Brush read with evident interest
the Chicago dispatch quoting Ban john
son as saying the peace conference would
not be held on the date originally set when
II was shown to him last evening. But
Mr.. Brush refused to discuss the matter
at all. He said Mr.. Hermann was chair
man of the National League committee,
and it was I'D to the Cincinnati man to do
the talking il there was any to be done.
1t seems as If President Johnson does
aot care for peace between the American
ard National leagues. at least, the course
he has been pursuing leads one TO believe
that there Is little chance OF a settlement
of the war. Johnson won his popularity
and the popularity of the American League
by fighting the National League, and he Is
evidently laboring under the impression
that he would gain but little and lose much
II he were 10 agree to peace. Practical
baseball men the country over with the
possible exception of Johnson and some
Of his ieutenants believe that peace is the
only possible solution of the baseball prob
lem Johnson probably hopes TO win
complete victory of the National League
and is obdurate in trying to settle the diff
Ierences. His latest step is a slap in the
face to the National League committee and
the National should show spunk enough to
tell Mr.. Johnson that unless he desires
TO talk peace on the terms originally set
out he can go and take back seat, and
the fight viii continue.

MAY FIGHT JACK MUNROE
CHICAGO CLUB WANTS "KID" MCCOY
TO MEET THE MINER.
Mccoy Tells How He Expects 10 lab
the Man Who stayed with Jenries-
Ryan VIII Train MunrOe.

Kid Mccoy, who is now in indianapolis.
received a telegram last evening from
Matchmaker Smith, of the American Club,
of Chicago, asking for his terms for
six-round bout with Jack Munroe. the
rainer-pugilist Mccoy Immediately wired
an answer and he will stay here until
match is arranged. Mccoy is very anxious
to meet Munroe and believes he could jab
the big fellow out of business in very few
rounds.
Mccoy related some OF his early expert
ences in the prize ring while with party
OF friends Friday night. They were hu-
morous, and, while a few Of them have
been told. they are still interesting.
1T remember once Of having fight in
Indianapolis when I was a mere kid with
q fellow named Merritt, who came here
from Hot Springs. He was strapping big
fellow. but my friends said L could whip
him. The fight was pulled off at Parnell
Hall. which was not much larger than an
ordinary Office room. L knocked him
against window and smashed 1t and later
put him out. 1 got about $46O as my
share of the fight 1 came up town and
had one of my friends put 50 Of the money
in his safe for me and then took the boys
out for good time with what was left.
1t seems funny now, especially when I
think that the receipts Of the house when
Corbett and 1 fought were $1,000.
After 1 left Indianapolis on my early
career 1 drifted to New Orleans and saw
a couple of colored fellows fight. One Of
them was a lanky sort OF chap with
very long reach. He kept jabbing the
other fellow in the nose all the time. until
the one who was getting the punishment
said: Why don't you scatter those blows
little and stop punching me all the time
on the nose? L took a lesson from that
fight and decided ii was better 10 jab
fellow in one place than to try and scatter
the blows. / won many fights with that
sort of jabbing.
IF L get on a fight with Munroe 1 will
expect to jab him until 1 put him out Of
business. If / would set myself and try to
win by landing one knockout blow L might
get the worst of IL, as did Jeffries. / never
lost a fight in my life until 1 changed my
tactics from jabbing and tried TO win
battle with one swing. When a man sets
himself to land a knockout punch he is
easier to get at and may receive a blow
that will put him out of business"

Many persons imagine that the human
voice is as easily recognizable as the hu-
man countenance: they think that they
could never be mistaken in the voices of
their friends; but in the branch telephone
exchange of a big business house the other
day an experiment proved that this was
not altogether true. One of the employees of
the house took his place at the exchange,
and. as various persons called for various
numbers, he guessed who was speaking.
Out OF ten guesses six were wrong. He
erred in the case of his own brothers voice
mistaking il for that OF the proprietor. He
was sure that he had detected a fellow
clerk on account of the pronunciation of
coffee-"cawfee'-that he believed to be
peculiar to this person; but the event
proved that there were others I'm the build

Tommy Ryan, the man who made Jeffries
champion, has been secured to train Jack
Munroe and place the big miner in condi-
ton to wrest the championship from JEFF
ries. Ryan says he can teach Munroe the
fine points of the game in a short time
and make him fit candidate for champion
ship honors. Clark Ball, late manager OF
the es-Fitzsimmons combination and
now manager of Munroe, has planned to
put the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. show out OF
business. He has organized Jack Munroe
fistic carnival company, in which Munroe
will be the whole thing, and this company
is to follow the big fighters show around
the country. Ball figures that the opposi-
ton won't last very long, a world 5
champion who has been whipped by a
miner is not as good drawing card as the
miner who put it on the champion. Ball
was instrumental in securing Ryan to train
Jeffries. and will soon issue challenge 10
