Admiral. Togo. who has distinguish
ed himself SO much against the Rus
slams by his skilful handling Of the
ships under his command, Is now an
excellent English scholar, as is evil
denced by the letters he has written
to his old tfriendsrof the. Thames Nau-
teal Training College, where. he; began
his education for q. sea career. But,
as may be easily conceived there was
a time when ne found it a very diff
cult matter, to express his thoughts In
English, This. Of course, greatly
hindered his doing himself justice in
the examinations IN which geography,
grammar, history, and Scripture were
included Thus there need be small
wonder that, in spite of his ability
and grasp of figures, he. took a. very
humble place in the marks, list. f,.s
: The examiners did not credit him
with those gifts which he has since
turned to such good account in deal
ing with his country's foes, BY a GU
rious accident, when the proofs OF the
lists" were. sent to the head master
he found Cadet Togo's name appear
ing as 'fNo. go,Yaan error which was
at once corrected; and rightly so in
the light eof44nore, recent. knowledge.
The great. fighter will, no doubt, smile

across this little story, which SO well
illustrates. the aphorism. Never

W. BIG OFFERS FOR
BRITT-C0RBETT FIGHT

PuslIistic promoters throughout the
country are already LAYING their wires
to capture the Britt-Corbet contest for
the fsather-wsiEht championship OF the
world which IL scheduled TO take place
In November or December. When the
two lad fought their sensational TWEEN
ity-round battle in San Francisco last
March they drew moro money than any
contest ever brought of between little
men in America. or. for that matter,
anywhere else in the world. Strange to
say, the contest between Britt and
the former champion Melted the fighters
and promoters a bigger gate than
the famous McGovorn-Erne contest
which took place in Madison Square
Garden. when the boxing game was
In full swing around New York. Nc
Govern and Erne drew a $40 gate,
while Britt and Corbett drew $S3,ooo.
Taking into consideration the fact that
the latter mill was pulled on In San
Francisco, this reccnd Is remarkable.
The managers of the boxing clubs on
the coast now figure that the return
match between the champion and Young
Corbett will draw close to 100000. The
boys boxed in a small pavilion in San
Francisco. and should the match be
pulled of there again they win surely
show In the Mechanics Pavilion, which
place. according to Manager ]: w. Cof-
froth. who has a lease on the building,
can seat more people than Madison
