"RING OF DEATH"
Miss Alix, an American, Falls While
 Looping the Loop in an Auto.

Madrid, Jan 26-Miss Nina Alix, an American girl. met with serious ac- cident here Sunday night She was a performer ill the Parish circus, and was billed to perform feat called the ring of death" which consisted of looping the loop In an automobile. After reaching the top of the loop the automobile and its occupant were in some manner precipitated from the track to the ground The accident caused great excitement among the spectators, and a number of women fainted.
 1t was thought at first that Miss Alix had been fatally injured. She was re moved to a hospital, where the doc tors yesterday said she would recover.
 A correspondent visited the hospital yesterday and was allowed to talk with her. Her head was swathed in bandages, and despite her injuries sIle was in good spirits She said she did not know how the accident occurred. Everything went along as usual until she reached the top of the loop. when the automobile almost stopped. Then suddenly she became unconscious and knew nothing until she came to her senses in the hospital.
 The accident is attributed to the fact that two new blanks used in the track were not sufficiently elastic and pre- vented the automobile from reaching the speed necessary to take it around the loop.

Nelly and O'Connell Are
 Being Strongly Backed
 by Their Friends - A Good Preliminary Bout

Interest has been awakened in the coming matches which are to take place in City hall tomorrow evening. In the first place, there is a, desire on, the part of the management to intro duce good wrestling bouts ill this city and the ones tomorrow night will con- stltute a preliminary trial. Kelly has asked on more than one occasion since ais fall from the good graces of the sports of this city to be given another chance. He admits that he made mistake, but he wants to redeem him. self. He says he will wrestle to-mor. row night better than he ever did in his life and if he does so he should be given encouragement If he wrestles as well tomorrow night as he did when he met Alex Swanson he will certainly gain many friends whom he has lost. He is confident of defeating O'Connell and this confidence is held as well by OConnell. The latter says he may take a fall out Of Kelly before the hour has expired. As a prelim- mary Jack Roach will face Frank Speh, who is recognized as a clever wrestler where he came from. This will make two star bouts and there will be another arranged for before to- morrow night.

LIVING FOSSIL FISH.
species kof Great Antfaaity stun zns habits the WorId-Has Lungs
 0s We'll as GiIls.

A very unusual demonstration waa recently giyen by Prof Denny to his students at Firth college, Sheffield, says Stray Stories.
 Among the most ancient animals still inhabiting our planet is the so-caIled mudfish of Africa. This creature is worthy of our respect, if only in con. sideration of its antiquity, which dates far back in the early ages of the world.
 The most striking features of ths mudfish is the possession of lungs as we'll as gilIs. On the approach of the dry season, in it's natural haunts irx Central Africa, it holIows chamber in the mud and enters upon rest extend- ing many months, during which time it is without access to water and breathes only air.
 While in the mud these creat,tres may be dug up and survive even after a journey across the world in this dry state. Prof. Denny received one of these mud blocks not long ago
 In the presence of the students the hard block was placed in warm water and after being thus exposed for nearly two hours the fish, that went to sleeu in tropical Africa many months befores awoke and came forth from it's terupors ary sepulchfe to find itself in bath of tap-water in the biological Iaboras tory Of Firth college.

New Football Rules.

When the football rules committee decides to begin the annual task of re- vising the code governing tne big col lege games, it is said, the members will have a flood of suggestions 10 look into. One of these suggestions covers the penalty for holding ,3;a and asks the committee to' abolish the 2o- yard rule substituting expulsion for the offending player for certain length of time, say four downs, there by depriving his team of his services. Another suggestion is that when the center rush attempts to make the long pass back for q punt, the opposing center should be compelled to step back at least yard from the ball, preventing interference. Still anoth- CT hint to the rule makers is that team having the kickoff shall be pen alized twenty-five yards if the ball is driven over the goal line, and must then be forced to kick over. Which would do away with the deliberate at tempt to regain the ball by driving it out of bounds i'll two kiclS-offs. The rules, committee will also be asked to make tho phraseology of the code clearer and more concise. But in spite of these suggestions. conserva- tive football men do not advocate radical changes and believe that the rule makers will make few. if any, al- terations. The rules gave universal satisfaction last fall.
