Al Kaufman, wHo fought his second
battle as a professional. Kaufman
took a beating such as has seldom
been received in the history of San
Francisco fights. Kaufman, a husky
nineteen year old boy, was credited
with a punch, but could not land it on
the shifty man from Philadelphia.
O'Brlen's sidestepping, ducking and
general footwork was a marvellous eX-
hfbition of skill. Kaufman, with ali
his strength, could land only an occa-
sionaI blow that never hit vital spot.
O'Brien, cool and elf-pOssessed, dane
ed in and out, hitting the youngster
almost at will.
Early IN the fight Kaufmann's left
eye was closed and his nose commenc-
ed to bleed. In spite Of terrible pun
fshment administered to nim, the boy
kept after his experienced adversary
and on several occasions rallied and
founght back in a manner that
brought the spectators to their feet
In the seventeenth round a succession
of left punches to the jaw staggered
Kaufman and then O'Brien pat over
a right cross to the jaw and tae Cali
fornia boy fell to the mat, his head
striking with great force. Kaufman
showed that he is strong, willing and
game to the core.

There has been little of especial interest in the

PoTALA: THE SACRED PALACE.

From the Metropolitan Magazine.
 Potala, or the sacred palace of the Dalai Lama, the high priest of the Tibetans, was photographed for the first time when the members of the British Tibetan expe- dition reached Lhasa, the sacred forbid den city in the center of Tibet. Colonel Younghusband, who was in charge Of the expedition would permit no attempt by the correspondents to violate the sane tity of the various sacred buildings. but splendid views of the exterior were ob- tained, and the world Is richer by au- thentic descriptions of this wonderful palace, which Is described in the dispatch of the London Times correspondent. Over a city set as a jewel amid green gardens, through which crystal streams flowed, lowered the giant Potala, rising almost from the ground in gigantic stretches of white masonry, pierced with intermin- able rows of windows, and scaled by great red-edged, zig-zag stairways twen- ty feet wide. Above these white mass ascended at either end in the shape of a heavily terracel palace, inclosing ma room mass, the main building. Above this again were golden roofs of Chinese pattern, the whole structure. 430 feet high and between 800 and 900 feet long, com pletely dominating the city of Lhasa, which was separated from the palace by wide stretches of turf and a beautiful plantation full of forest trees.

Block Signal System.

President Milton II. Smith shows in the course of letter published in the Memphis Commercial-Appeal that less than six per cent of the killed or in jured on the railroads of the country in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1903, were due to collisions. He therefore says that the installation of the block signal system would not materially lessen the roll of railway accidents, which number about seventy thousand year.
 MT. Smith analyses the accidents on the lines he supervises in the last fiscal year, and he arrives at the con clusion that less than three per cent would have been avoided if the block system had in operation on every mile of the system.
 Block signals are intended to pre- vent collisions by not permitting a train access to the space between signals. The signals are worked by individuals, all of whom are human, and they may become negligent, and so may trainmen, and brakes may not work, and so on , the end of the chapter.
 After all, block signals are but aids in difficult problem. They relate to the prevention of collisions, and col lisions furnish but a small proportion of railroad accidents. Out of 2151 kill ed or injured in the last fiscal year on the Louisville and Nashville but 131 were due to collisions, and only one of the killed was a passenger.

whisky is much less liable to give them gout. and refuse champagnes and red wines altogether. You can dine out every night in the winter nowadax1 with out seeing bottle of Burgundy and claret is not drunk so much as the light wines of Germany. It is customary to serve champagne toward the close of dinner. but the glasses are seldom filled more than once. A few years ago the measure of wine was one bottle of champagne for every three guests: now it is one for every six guests. sauterne and Rhenish wines are usually taken with greater fredom because they are less gouty.
 There has been a great change in the fashion of cooking, also. The dishes are very much simpler; rich sauces are no longer popular, and there are more made" dishes and less red meat" The read meat" question Is a serious enc with many people, as the doctors will tell you. At the butcher shops patronized by the rich people of the capital the sales of chops. steaks roasts and flets are not more than half what they used to be eight or ten years ago, while the demand for game, chicken and sa1ted meats has increased in & corre- spending manner. Scarcely & dinner has been served this season without a roast ham. It Is a very popular course, en- joyed by women as well as men.

Russian Hope and Japanese Poverty.

The Russian Minister of finance is reported to have said that Japan could be beaten "at this desk" rapping the piece of furniture before him. This may have been good wit, but it is not borne out by the facts. Already France. overloaded with Russian bonds, hesitates to absorb more bonds above a ruinous discount. The French people may take more Russian bonds at 90, but not at 94, and they really do not want any more unless Russia will listen to peace proposals.
 There are two reasons why Japan cannot be starved out in the course of long war In the first place noth- ing succeeds like success. Japan wins all battles on land or sea, while Rus sia of course wins none. Japan's ex- penses, on account of proximity to the seat of war, are far less than Russia's perhaps one-half less, and they will continue to be less, no matter how long the war lasts.
 These differences are daily shown in the market, Japanese As that were quoted a year ago at 621s, are now worth STA, with a rising tendcy. Jap anese sizes that were placed in two lots at 92 and S9 respectively, are now selling at 1041a, for one issue and lO01a for the other. The Russian fours have fallen to SS%, and they would go lower if France did not take steps to hold them up, on ac- count of the large holdings of the French people. The Russian govern ment, too. consistently supports its bonds in the market.
 The bankrupting process is easily a game that two can play at, and Japan will not soon be starved out The Japanese can, if need be, place loan or two at home, but at present there is no necessity for that, for they can get in this country or in England all the money they need.

from the two proposed provinces ho- eIty of action in regard to a very delicate and disturbing subject.
 A revolt followed at once. One mem- Der of the cabinet resigned, and dis affection spread in all directions. The ministry was about to fall, when the premier proposed a compromise, saw ing the existing rights of the reparate schools under the ordinances of 1901. Possibly this compromise may be ac- cepted, but the feeling against any dictation by the dominion in school matters is acute, and it is difficult to say what the outcome will be.
 The entire question is loaded, and it may readily upset the liberals who have been in power about five years. It is insisted that the two new pro- vinces should be left free to determine their own school policy, because they have to foot the bills, and there is no more reason why they should be linn tied in action in educational matters than that the other provinces should be. The situation is interesting, and the sequel is well worth the watching, for we have similar questions ready to come up in this country.

WEAKNESS FELT.
Buoyancy of the London Stock Market
 Yields Slightly.

London, March 1s.-The recent strength and buoyancy of the stock market have given way to some weakness or natural reduction, due partly to the holding back of the Russian loan and the feeling of unrest in Paris which was manifested in the selling from that quarter, brought about by events in Manchuria. Money was kept short last week by the re- quirements of the stock exchange set clement, and the Notation of various new issues of bonds. but supplies will be- come greater next month
 The conclusion of the heavy settlement showed a large bull account for a raise, which the bears promptly took advantage of. The speculative American market which recently has been thought top heavy, being perhaps the least sensitive, yielded to a larger extent than the others and shows the most loss on the week. though it finished firmer under renewed support from the continent.
