Some Old Timers.


Take the Old-timers, such as Barney
Aaron. Jem Mace, Dooney Harris and
others. They did their best fghtIng
after they were thirty Then there was
Joe Goddard. Frank Slavin. Peter Jack
son. Billy Edwards and Pete Mccoy.
John l. Sullivan was all in, so TO speak.
before he was thirty-four. Kid Nc
Coy is under thirty, and has been forced
to retire. because, according to his own
admission, he cannot fight any more.
George Dixon lost the featherweight
title to Terry McGovern when he was
in his thirtieth year. McGovern, in turn,
was defeated by Young Corbett' before
he was twenty-five. Pedlar Palmer won
the bantam championship of the world
from Bill Plimmer when he was twenty
and gave way to McGovern four years
later. Although Palmer is twenty-eight
he has been regarded as a has been
for some time. Billy Plimmer was
compelled to quit the ring before he
was thirty.
Kid Lavigne. one Of the best light
weights the arena has produced in the
last decade. was all IN before he was
twenty-nine. Frank Erne. who succeed
ed him at the top Of this clsss. went
down before Joe Cans, the present
lightweight champion. In his twenty
seventh year, and now he has retired
Jim Corbett was knocked out by Bob
Fftzsimmons and lost the heavyweight
championship when he was thirty-one
Tom Sharkey. although only in his thir-
tieth year. has been out of It ever since
his last fight with Jim Jeffries. in 1898
Sharkey always paid the strictest atten-
ton to his health. too.
Starlight. the veteran Australian
middleweight. who has been the trial
horse for number of the foremost
Australian heavyweights. past and pres
ent. is still fighting. Starlight is nearly
fifty. but the youngsters have all they
can do to beat him in decisive fashion
Don't Last Long.
Harry Forbes. who is only a young
ster. having been born in 1879. lost the
bantam title TO frankie Neil a few
months ago. Forbes has been fighting
ever since 1887. Jack McAuliffe was not
more than thirty-one when he retired.
Gus Rubin. who was born in 1872 is
still in the ring. but he has never shown
much form since he was put to sleep by
Bob Fitzsimmons three years ago. Pc
ter Maher has been out OF IL for years.
although he is still a young man. He
was born in 1863.
THE Sullivan brothers, Spike and
Dave. have been receding in form for
years, yet neither of them is over thir-
". Kid Mcfarland, Of New York, who
was expected 10 iii Kid Lavigne's shoes
some day. has retired from the ring.
Mcfarland was born in 1915. but he
was forced to quit boxing a year ago,
when he was knocked out by Joe Cans
THE method of modern pugilists in
training and looking after their health
is different from that which the old
timer used to undergo Present-day
scrappers make twice as much money
as some of the champions did IN the
past. and they live only for today

CHAPTER XII

Alone the prisoner remained until noon,
and then his dinner was brought by an
Indian whom he had not before seen. He
asked no questions, but allowed the mes
senger 70 go and come In silence. An
hour afterwards the door was again
opened, and this time the light, airy form
Of the Princess Coqualla entered the pris-
on. White Hand Immediately arose and
moved towards her,
"My white brother Is safe, and Co
qualla Is glad" the princess uttered, as
she took the proffered hand
"Ah, fair princessl' exclaimed the
youth, with some sadness In his tone;
''but how long shall be safe2"
"As long as you wish. But listen. The
Natchez speak plainly when they have
anything to say, for they would be quick
ly understood. MY father has promised
to kill thee. and In one way alone can
he forego his pledge. He will not kill
his own son-in-law."
The dusky princess trembled as she
spoke, and her head was bowed, But
White Hand understood her. He gazed
a few moments upon her downcast face,
and he wondered at her extreme beauty.
She was dark, but the youth had seen
faces In his own land much darker, but
never had seen a smoother, falrer skin,
nor features more faultlessly regular and
beautiful. He started at her words, but
It was with strange, thrilling start, and
a troubled, perplexed look worked upon
his face.
"Coqualla," he said, ''thou art the only
daughter of thy father~
"Thou speakest TRUTH" was her reply.
"And will thy father give me 10 thee
for q husbandr
"He will"
"And how Is thy wishf".

ships boat to explore the reef and
nothing further was heard OF them. At
low water the captain explored the reef
and found the wrecks Of half a dozen
vessels including the wreck Of a four
masted ship and a steamer.
The reef stretched for miles, and at
the western end was deserted fishing
station with joss house and half
dozen Chinese graves. There was q de-
serted cabin, containing pictures and
articles which must have been secured
from wrecks. After several days spent
ON the wreck, the survivors started in
their patched-up cutter for Hong Kong.
They were four days at sea, suffering
great priyations, when : Norwegian
steamer picked them up and landed
them at Hong Kong.

MAolLToN, THE APE ACROBAT.

Story from Scotland OF a Ghost and q
Series OF Dreams.
Some years ago my wife had repeated
dreams OF house. the interior arrange
ments Of which she described minutely,
although no Idea as to Its locality was
conveyed to her. subsequently, In the
year 1883, hired for the autumn from
Lady B. house in the Highlands.
with shooting and fishing; my son, who
was In Scotland at the time, arranged
the matter, neither my wife nor hav-
Ing seen the place. When went with
out my wife) to make final arrange
ments for taking possession, Lady B.
was still living In the house, and she
told me that II did not mind she pro-
posed putting me for the night into a
bedroom which she herself usually oc-
cupied, and which for some time past
had been haunted by "a little lady"
who continually appeared In 1t. AS I
was somewhat skeptical upon such
matters replied that l should be de-
lighted to make the acquaintance Of
her ghostly visitor, and | accordingly
slept In the room, but no such visitor
appeared to me.
Subsequently, upon my wife's arrival
at the house, she, to her great astonish-
ment, found it to be the counterpart Of
her dream house, and on inspecting 1t
from hall to attic every detail appeared
to correspond. But on descending
again to the hall she said: "No, this
cannot be the house, after all, as in my
dream there was another suite Of rooms
on that side, which is missing here"
She was at once told that there was
such a suite of apartments, not ap-
preached from the hall, and on being
taken over them she recognized every
room. She, however, said that a bed
room In this suite appeared in her
dream to be a sitting-room, and 1t ap-
peared that this had been the case, but
that the arrangement had just been al
tered.
A day or two after, my wife and I
met Lady B.. and / introduced the
two ladies to each other, as they had
not previously been acquainted. In
stnntly Lady B. exclaimed: "Why,
you are the lady who haunted my bed
ROOM" have no explanation to offer,
nor had my wife during the rest Of her
life, as to what some might call q re-
markable coincidence. and what would
be called In the Highlands case Of
second sight" Certainly my dear wife
was the last person in the world to
give undue license to her Imagination,
and, further, l can vouch for the fact,
and so can other members Of my fam
lily, that she did undoubtedly describe
accurately a house which had some
rather remarkable arrangements, and
this long before she or any other mem
bers of the family were even aware
that such house really existed"

"LIke my fathers. lie loves thee, for
thou hast touched his heart. Last night
/ heard him say thou vast the first un-
complaining, noble white man he had
ever Seen full Of pain and sorrow. ] love
thee, too. and can always love thee and
be true"
White Hand started across the prison,
and his head was bowed In deep thought
At length he stopped and took Ocqualla
by the hand and led her 70 whore the
ground rolled up into little knoll, and
here he sat down and drew the princess
20 his side.
"Coqualla." he whispered, speak to

were thy life all thine own, and thought
that the asking would bring thee 70 me
forever. I'd ask thee on my knees"
A little while che y6nth held the hand
Of the princess, and gazed Into her large,
dark eyes. and then be spoke. His words
were low and earnest. and Coqualla list.
ened In silence. lie went on. and spoke
more freely, but still In a whisper, and
when he had done, the princess placed
her arms about his neck and wept. He,
too, wound his arms about the 1.-THE form
Of his companion and pressed her 70 bis
bosom; and from that moment their loves
were reciprocal.
Coqualla hurried away from the prison,
and when she returned, she brought with
her the dress OF Little Sun Of the
Natchez, and an earthen bottle. White
Hand was soon arrayed In the Indian
garb, and then the princess proceeded TO
bHthe his face. arms and feet with o
iluid that was contained In the bottle.
II was preparation Of the outer cover
Ing OF the hickory nut, and some peeu-
liar root, which gave the color Of the
red mans skin.
Thus arrayed and H.etsmo.phcsed, Co
qnalla took her lover by the hand and led
him forth. Not far from the temple was
the house OF Stung Serpent. II was, like
all the other dwellings, Of en- oblong form,
the walls built OF rough timber, made
tight By a cement formed Of clay and
Spanish moss, with a roof Of reeds and
vines very skilfully interviewer upon a
frame, and made tight by the same Kind
OF cement that formed the walls. To this
house White Hand was led. and when
he entered. he found that not only were
all Of Stung Serpent's family present,
but also the Great Sun and his wives.

Riamarck,a niR Brain.

Prince Bismarck's brain, according to
the tlattering estimate Of the anthropol-
ogist, Otto Ammon, was probably the
heaviest known to anatomical science.
Herr Ammon, in consultation with
Prof. schafer, the sculptor, concluded
from the measurements taken for
Schafer's bust that the brain Of the
old stateman weighed 1857 grammes,
and consequently exceeds In weight
that of any known genius. Cuvier's
brain weighed 1880 grammes. Byron's
1907, Krant's 1850, Schiller's 1880,
and Dante's 1920. The average weight
Of the brain of an intelligent Euro
pean Is only 1880 grammes.

be, he said, that q change in the po-
Iitical power Of this government which
the people desired to accomplish might
be indefinitely postponed. Hoar stated
that questions u qualification should
be postponed and acted upon by the

republic Of Colombia, securing to ths

changed ratifcations Of the Alaska
boundary treaty. The preparation Of
the cases of the two sides will proceed
with all speed, as, under the treaty,
they must be submitted to The arbitrat-
