A Backer of Tom Savers.

The recent death of James Craigle
on the Isle of Man serves to recall
the greatest prize fight in history,
the memorable battle of Marlborough
on April II, 1860, between Tom
Savers, champion of England, and
Jack Heenan. Mr.. Craigie was one
of Savers hackers, putting up a part
of the stake of $1,000, for which the
battle was fought. At the ringside
were many of England's most notable
men, including Lord Palmerston.
The battle ended in draw and a
free fight and the pugilists had to be
Struggled away from the police. The
disgraceful ending of the fight
marked the beginning OF the decline
of the sport as a "gentleman's game"

A Photographic Watch.

A clock with a phonograph attached
to it, which delivers its message on ex-
actly the same principle as the alarm
of an alarm-clock, is the latest piece
of mechanical ingenuity in Geneva.
Into the receiver of the monograph
all that is necessary is to speak the
message of which one desires to be
reminded the next day at certain
time and at that hour the phono-
graph speaks the words. Thus if one
has an appointment at o'clock to-
morrow one merely says, 81 have to
keep an appointment at O'Clock"

MAUTS HOPES,

PAIA, Maui, Jan. 3.-'Maui rejoices
heartily with the rest of the group over
the completion of the long dreamed of
cable. The news that the Senate
in Washington had yesterday passed
the Fire Claims bill reached here in the
afternoon, and after the complete iso-
lation of the past it seemed hard to
believe chat it had actually occurred
yesterday. The next step looked for
ward to by Maui and no doubt the 9TH
er Islands also, is the laying of an in
ter-iSland cable so that some reliable
means of communication will be open
ed up with Honolulu. The wireless is
all right so long as it works, but the
trouble with the system seems to be
that you never can tell when it is go
ing to be out of order, and it is liable
to be so just at the time that you
want it most. However we are thank
full for what the wireless does for us,
and give it all the credit that is due 1t.
A daily mail from Honolulu so that
the papers could reach the Island eV-
cry day would be the completion of the
fondest wishes of QUEENSLAND resi-
dents. Little by little the blessings
are coming, and some day we will no
doubt have all of them.

Little Town in Wetzel Has a
Severe Blow
Entire Robinson Block Reduced to Ashes
Loss Being $4,000 Heavy Rain
Assisted in Saving Town.

The thrifty little town of Smith.
fi.ld, sit uated about twelve miles In
the country from New Martinsville,
On the Short Line Railroad, suffered
from a $4,000 fire Sunday, which
destroyed the entire Robinson
block, reducing to ashes In short
time the following: W. E. Kimb'
Inns gents furnishing store; H.C.
Whistlers drug store; the telephone
exchange; the residence Of Perry
Grimm; D. c. Riggle's meat market,
and badly scorched the Bank OF
Smitbfeld, and the Brown Froont
hotel.
The fire started a little before
noon In the home of Perry Grimm
and spread with alarming speed,
the flames bursting out of the
Robinson block Immediately across
the street, where stands the bank
and hotel. The town has no fire
department, but the water works
was brought into service, and the
plugs opened, which saved adjoiu-
ing property. The entire city was
out to fight the Haze, and together
with the rain that was falling at
the time, saved the place from de-
struction.
The fire sufferers are partially
Insured. The Robinson block will
be rebuilt at once.

ried baskets Of potatoes, onions and
beets, instead of flowers. After the

hurried over TO her home to get the
dinner on. The dream was so
startling the man woke up to find

CONSTABLES
COMPLAIN
Because They Are lnsuffi
GENTLY Paid
Must Pay Their Own Mileage and Get
Only Twenty Gents for
Serving Subpoenas

There has been great deal of dis
satisfaction with the fees paid The
constables and the system under
which they work. Our reporter,
by interviews, got the following In
formation. The constable Is paid by
the justic eof the peace, the squire
and the highest paid for arrest Is
Sc and that for the arrest of iunatic.;
the lowest paid, and that's what
usually occurs, Is 60 cents for the
arrest of misdemeanor cases. For
arrests In felony cases the officer
gets 81 but be often has to hunt
for couple of days before he can
get the man he Is after, as no
transportation fees are given
the constable he must pay his own
mileage so that the prof! is not
very big. No money at all Is paid
for commitments and In serving sup,
poenas only 20 cents for each Is paid.
WI en the officer makes an arrest
an order, called school order, upon
which Is stamped payment rot
euranteed. is given, this order is
presented to the Squire and If he
has any motley frou fines on hand
he pays the constable.
The constable gets nothing fo1
taking an offender from the Office
to the jail.
Another thing that Is against
the officer Is the haiboring of Grim
[iuals and refusing to give evidence.
Many instances can be cited where
criminals have got away on &C.
! count of people refusing to tell
what they know of the criminals
whereabouts. Very often 1t hap
pens that this Is done and 1t should
be made severe offense with LA.
bilities Of a heavy fine. The officer
has the power to 60 out OF the
county after a criminal, but as no
mileage Is furnished there Is very
little inducement for an officer to
exert himself when he has the car
fare of two to pay. Some remedy
should be devised to perfect the
schelu of constab!e's fees In the
servi ,g Of warrants.
The pay Of the police officer Is
lb65 per month with no extra pay
menls made for arrests. unless the
ficer Is on special duty. This Is
another thing that should be looked
,iato-she duty of special police.
This Is work that should be CIV
en- to constables. The humane WORK
which is not so well kuo"n In
some other towns furnishes another
kind of unpleasant work for an
officer, although be is paid for that
alone.
Taking all in all, accol ding tc
1.-The constable, their work Is not anV
too pleasant at any time, and tie
class of peaceable law abiding citi
zens should take enough interest In
the work to tighten his load as
much as possible.
