Maher Comes to Life.

The retuvenation Of Peter Maher has
not been overlooked by fight followers.
The Irishman's quick defeat of Jim
JeffOrds. the California heavyweight is
taken as a criterion that Maher has re-
covered his old form and wallop. Maher
has all along been recognized as the
hardest hitting heavyweight in the ring
today, not even barring Jim JeffrieS.
Whenever he lands properly with either
hand his rival is sure to bite the dust.
He showed great form against JEFF
fords and has convinced his friends that
with proper care he can hold his own
against most OF the big men. But
Makers age must be reckOned with. as
he is nearly thirty-five, and age is a
factor in pugilism these days.

was prepared to face the opposition and
take a chance. as the gamblers say.
All the boxers who were engaged to
appear were ready and would have been
on hand regardless Of circumstances
had the doors Of the clubhouse been
thrown open to the public. They were
with Hurst through thick and thin. and
were prepared 10 stand or fail with him.
1t was bitter pill for Hurst when the
proprietor Of the hall where the club Is
located yielded TO the opposition.
Had the bouts been permitted the club
would have been on velvet the first

vanced sale reached s., 500. all of which
was returned.

Britt Is Skillful.

Jimmy Britt's recent appearance at a
New York theater provided little oppor-
tuntty TO get a line on his real form
he simply spared. having his brother
Billy as his partner. The lads did rot
fight each other OF the stage, but gave
an interesting exhibition.
Britt is a sHllful fellow, but is not
as scientific a fighter as either Joe Cans
or Frank Erne. But he can hit, q fact
that was evident even in the bout with
his brother. He varies in his STYLE
and his punches are delivered carefully
and accurately. He did not use his
noted crouch in his exhibition. He
says he only fights in this manner in the
ring. All told, Britt made an impress
sion. and the sports who went 20 the
theater to see him perform like him
and will back him the next time he
fights.

be denied that they are two OF the best
iads of their weight in the fighting
business today.

which was OF considerable length. not
a sound was heard. When he concluded
by saying that the correspondence spoke
for itself, and no comment from him
was necessary. there was subdued ap-
plause.
when he asked If any member de-
sired to say anything. there was ST
Ience Of scorn OF sadness, or both. There
was really nothing TO be SAID, save that
conduct of this sort. combined with e
complete absence Of shame in confess
ing It after detection. rendered further
competition for the Palma challenge

Such language as this cannot te al
lowed TO pass unnoticed. The incideut
has already aroused far greater bitter
ness and bad feeling than anything in
connection with Lord Dunraven's chal-

and most serious kind. Where any
space was left, it was filled up with
portraits of eminent divines and phil
anthropists, and every article in the
room was neatly and methodically ar
ranged. In fact, it presented as
marked contrast to Jacks rooms as it
was possible to conceive.
| Jack had not been inside it for
years, but he remembered distinctly
how he used to loathe the room and It's

Now, my dear Jack, pray help your

Stephen mixed the Apollinaris and

And now, my dear Jack, l am ready
to answer all questions"
Jack looked down and frowned
thoughtfully He did not know how t.
put them. Stephen smiled maliciously
bc.2iLd his hand.
You want to know how it comes
about that Miss Rolfe is under my
mothers charge-under my charge, I
may say?"
Under yours?" said Jack, grimly
Stephen nodded.
1T is very simple affair, Jack
There is no mystery. The fact is,
have known Miss Rolfe's father for
some years. He is very good fellow,
but very eccentric"
Il know" said Jack; 1--WE seen
him."
Stephen started and concealed his
expression of surprise by reaching for
his glass.
"Ah, then, no doubt, you noticed
that his appearance and manner does
not correspond with the station he oc-
cupies?"
Il did," said Jack.

FRANkNEss OF MANNER.

Orison SWEET Marden in Success
There is no more delightful trait in
the young or the old than absolute
frankness and openness of nature,
that transparency of character which
lets us see the best and the worst in
them, their strong and their weak
points, without any effort at conceal
ment.
Everybody admires the open.heart-
ed, the people who have nothing to
conceal, and who do not try to cover
up their faults and weaknesses. They
are, as a rule, large-hearted and mag
unanimous. They inspire love and con-
fdence, and, by their very frankness
and simplicity, invite the same quail
ties in others.
SecretiveneSs repels as much as
frankness attracts. There is some
thing about the very inclination to
conceal or cover up which arouses
suspicion and distruSt We can not
have the same confidence in people
who possess this trait, no matter how
good they may seem to be, as in frank,
sunny natures. Dealing with these
secretive people is like travelling on
q stage coach on dark night. There
is always a feeling of uncertainty.
We may come out all right. burt there
, is a lurking fear of some pitfall or
unknown danger ahead of us. We
are uncomfortable because of the I'M
certainities. They may be all right,
and may deal squarely with us, but
the trouble is that we are not sure,
and can not trust them. No matter
how polite or gracious a secretive per
son may be, we can never rid our
selves of the feeling that there is
motive behind his gracioTsness. al. =
that he has an Interior purpose in
view. He is always more or less of an
enigma, because he goes through life
wearing a mask. He endeavors to
hide every trait that is not favorable
to himself. Never if he can help it,
do we get glimpse of the real man.
How different the man who comes
out in the open, who has no secrets,
who reveals his heart to us, and who
is frank, broad and liberal! How we
! all love and trust him! We forgive
him for many a slip or weakness, be-
cause he is always ready to confess
his faults. and to make amends for
them. If he has bad qualities, they
are always in sight, and we are ready
to make allowances for them His
heart is sound and true, his sympathies
are broad and active. The very quail
ties he possesses-frankness and SIM
plicity.-are conductive to the growth
Of the highest manhood and woman
hood.

CHAPTER XVII.

White and haggard, stephen stood in
shadow way, his eyes fixed on Jack and
Una with an expression Of mingled as
constituent and rage beyond all de-
scripton.
Jack was too astonished by what
seemed as much an apparltion as a
reality, 70 withdraw his arm from
round una's waist and 1t was she who
first recovered selt-possession enough
10 cross over to Mrs. Dayenant and
wake her.
Her movement seemed to recall
Stephen to sense of the situation, and
in n moment he rose and coped with It,.
Another man, Il weaker man, coming
suddenly upon what looked like the
wreck of all his deeply.laid plans, upon
seeing the girl, whom 1t was all-im
portant he should secure for himself, IN
the arms Of them an he hated and
feared most In the world, would have
given vent to his wrath and disappOint'
meat But not SO stephen. BY n
vast effort he suppressed the evil
glance in his eyes, forced II smile to
his compressed lips, and came across
the room with outtretched hand an
expression of warmest and most aifec-
Tomato greeting,
"My dear jack" he exclaimed, in
his soft tones. almost rough in their
warmth and geniality. Now, this Is a
pleasant surprise, How do you do?
how do You do?'
But almost before Jack knew II,
stephen had seized him by the hand,
and was swinging ii convulsiyely, smil,
ing so that all his teeth glittered and
shone in the candle-light.
Jack was taken Ivy surprise, and re-
turned the greeting cordially; indeed,
what elise could he do. seeing that
he was in Stephens mothers house.

KENTUCKY CROPS.
Condition as Seen By State
Commissioner.

The drouth prevailing in nearly all
parts of the State is almost unprece-
dented in its severity. From nearly
every county the cry comes that
stock water is scarce and Stock is
being driven for miles for water. In
many places the streams, springs
and cisterns have given out, causing
a water famine for man as we'll as
beast. There is great complaint that
nearly all grass seed sown for mead
ows have persisted for want of moist
ure. There is also apprehension that
a large part of the wheat, rye, and
winter oat seed will perish from the
same cause. The early sown grain
came up all right, but there has not
been = sufficient = moisture in the
ground for it to make any progress.
The grain sown later remains un-
sprouted in the ground yet. 1t re-
mains to be seen what the effect will
be if the drouth continues much
longer. - e--% N
The corn crop generally in the
state is a good one, many counties
reporting a good crop, while others,
notably in the fourth division of the
state, report an exceedingly short
crop.
The acreage of wheat was not in
creased { as expected, only a few
counties reporting an increase above
an average, while quite a number
fall much below. The drouth set
ting in 50 early that it interfered
with preparing the land for wheat

The amount of land seeded to rye is
a full acreage. The acreage of win
ter oats S below the average, large

The tobacco was saved in good
condition. Free from frost, worm
cut and dirt it ought to be a very
useful crop. While the crop is not
large one anywhere, it is reported to
be quite short one in the. first and
fOurthldiStrictS i've stock are fully
up to the standard in numbers and
conditions. The apple crop for win

Evangelist Paul Price began his

was but one opinion expressed and
that favorable Of his morning ser

Lord is my Shepherd, | shall not

voice, is easy in his manners, grace

The night service drew another

sermon was as good as the first.
Yesterday an afternoon service
was held at three o'clock and at
night Mr.. Price preached on "Judg-

ORANGE DAY
A Carload of Oranges Given
Away at Worlds Fair.

Wednesday, November 23rd, was
Orange Day in the California section
Of the Worlds Fair, and 10000 or
anges, fresh from the groves Of the
Golden State were distributed to as
many people. The oranges were
from the Sacramento Valley and the
distribution took place at the Sacra-
mento Valley Exhibit in the Agricul-
tural building Few exhibition
functions have attracted more atten-
ton. There was a constant crush of
people, requiring large number of
jefferson guards to prevent acct
dents.
The bulk of the oranges were in
tissue wrappers, bearing the inscrip-
t on, Northern California Oranges, -
and it was for the purpose of inn
pressing Eastern people with the
fact that oranges are grown in
Northern California that the func-
ton was planned.
The Californians in charge told
the visitors that the fruit was grown
more than five hundred miles.north
of Los Angeles, the bulk of it north
of Sacramento, and portion of il
not far from the northern boundary
line Of the State. They told of olives,
figs, and even of date and Ebanana
palms growing in the Sacramento
Valley, and as proof Of their asser-
tons, they handed out as rapidly as
possible, large, yellow, luscious or
anges.
Some Of the fruit was enclosed in
wrappers, upon which was printed 9
picture Of the State Capitol building
at Sacramento, with an Inscription
conveying the information that these
oranges were grown in the capito
grounds.
The Sacramento Valley Exhibit
was decorated for the occasion with
magnificent profusion of California
flowers, fresh from the doors of Sac.
ramento homes. These, perhap.
even more than the oranges, served
