THE PAY SINGERS RECEIVE.
It Is Thought That Not Dozen American Vocalists Clear Ten
 Thousand a Year.

After years of hard, uphill struggle and study a singer may be recognized as successful, says Leslie's Monthly. What is her reward? The season IS short, a few weeks of fall festivities, a week or two of Christmas concerts, and 8 few weeks of spring festivities. with a sprinkling of individual concerts be-. tween times, make up the list of her opportunities. When she obtains an engagement there is much more prep aration necessary than rubbing up her knowledge of the work 10 be given, and singing the rehearsal-often pulp lic--with the local chorus the day or the afternoon before tho performance. She must watch for dranghts; cold would disable her completely. She must be constantly careful of the att mosphere she breathes.
 She receives in compensation two. three or four hundred dollars, from which must be deducted many expenses There are probably not dozen Ameri- can concert and oratorio singers who clear $10,000 a year from singing, in- cluding $1.oo0 or $1,50o they receive from churches or synagogues. And tha study and work they did at the start was only beginning Of study and work they must do all their life. Of the rest, few make 3 considerable amount of money by being invited to wealthy private houses, singing for people there and receiving checks the next day for their kindness. The vast majority of the remainder exist on taEeI1ty-fiye and fifty dcllar concert work, or take to teaching, or drift into comic opera, or in the end weary of it all and do something else.

BICYCLING.

Bob Alexander, the Hartford pace follower and former .IAing sof the Road,Y is in Hartford looking for an engageentm to drive a racing auto mobile. He visited the factory Of the Electric Vehicle company, where some former champion bicyclists are learn ing the mechanism of racing machines Alexander is an Irvington- Minimum winner and at the time he won that race he was regarded as the best road rider in the country After he gave up road riding Alexander tried track racing and had considerable success. He soon graduated into the profession al class and was seen number of times at the Velodrome track with the fast men.
 s During the past year Alexander took on flesh very rapidly and he now weighs upwards of POO pounds. He became so accustomed to riding fast when he was q professional cyclist that he missed the excitement of fast travelling when he retired from the ranks of the cyclers, so he secured place as fireman on 8 freight train in New Jersey. He was on a fast train and while riding in the engine cab ne often fancied himself back on the cirl- der track. MT Alexander thinks that his experience in riding and handling motor machines would be of value in driving a racing auto and in this k1nd of work he will not be handicapped by his excessive weight.
 Bobby Walthour may remain abroad all the year. The star member of the Columbia team has sent for his wife and children to join him in Paris Ms WaIthour is disinclined to cross the water, but says she will do so unless her husband comes back to America soon.
 Ivor Lawson, r. A. Mcfarland, Hardy Downing, Orlando Stevens and Trainer C. E. Bolles have arrived in San Francisco after successful winter racing tour in Australia. The men will come east for the bicycle races at yailsburg, N. J., and other tracks.
 Oscar Babcock. the former sfx-day racing cyclist of New York, is now with q circus in New Mexico doing a loop the loop act and a cycle whirl.
 At a recent directors meeting of the Pope Manufacturing company Arthur W. Pope of Boston was elected a di- rector to take the place of Samuel c. Winslow of Worcester.

.IEFFRIEs IS STOUT.

Jim Jeffries is getting so big that, if he is not careful, he will outgrow any fighting weight.
 He is now on his way to Harbin Snrinos. Cal. where he will shape him. self for his seance with Jack Monroe.
 This question of his heft Jeffries is loath to discuss.
 .'I am not worrying about the weight question, or any other. for that mat ter.''. said Jeffries. Ut makes no diff ference to me how much weigh. The only thing I try to do is to get good. When I get to that stage it is matter of indifference whether I weigh 240 or 190."
 It is evident, however, that the big pugilist will have to take off at least a score of pounds before the Yosemite club battle. He has a suspicion of q double chin and looks more like a big comfortable business man than a prize fighter. Appearances indicate his weight at least 250 pounds. His ring weight has been around 220 pounds in his late battles.
 The exact date for the coming fight has not yet been agreed upon. Arti- cles call for the latter part of May, but this and Kindred questions will not be settled until after Munroe reaches the coast
 There is also some doubt as to the referee for the big battle. Edward Graney is named in tho articles. but since inc Corbet Britt fioht he has an- nounced that he will officiate at no more ring battles. Jeffries is favora- ble to him, however. and unless there are strenuous obiections from the Mun- roe party. efforts will be made to have him referee the bout Jeffries expects 10 win. of course He asserts that Munroe is game and anything but easy, but the champion is not worried abort tl1a outcome.
 The Jeffries party includes Billy De- laney Joe Kennedy and Joe Egan.

JOHN L. OBJECTS.

John l.. Sullivan thinks he is en- titled to $21S as a result of the sale of the championship belt which was said to be worth $10,0o0 at the time it was presented to him. The belt was recently sold by his uncle" with whom he had left it for a loan of $1.SO0.
 When John l.. heard that the belt had been sold he made inquiries and was informed by some one that it had realized $2,9O0. He decided that all the money above the principal and in terest, with the cost of the sale, should come his way. The ex-chanlpion con suited Lawyer Isaac F'rauenthai, and the lawyer sent q communication to the pawnbroker, making demand TOT the surplus.
 The pawnbroker sent back word that just $4 was coming to the "big fellow and that he could have lt any time he called. The lawyer consuiIed the client and 1t was decided to make
