WOMAN ATHLETES TEMPER.

Those who have something to do
with athletics among women have
been puzzled and depressed at the
lack of true sportsmanship among
them. We are quite aware that this
statement will be the cause of re-
sentful refutation among the girl
athletes, but it is true, nevertheless.
1t is just as well to confess that
women have not learned to contest
with each other without losing tenn

THE WESTERN BAD MAN.

The day of the Bad Man as a fac
tor In western life is past. His finish
came when the cattle country turned
into farms, and the mushroom mining
camps died or became cities. With
more people came fixed laws which
were nearly enough impartially ex-
ecuted to end the days of the six
shooter as a symbol OF justice. How
ever that era of gun-play produced
some unique characters, none more
noted than wild Biz Hickock.
wild Bill' was at various times a
scout, town marshal, and a gam
bier, and at all times a fighter. The
fame of his proves was common talk
from Deadwood to Tucson. He was a
big, handsome, long-haired fellow, who
looked the part, which is not usually
the case with gun men. But Bill fin
ally got his; he was shot and killed
in a Deadwood saloon, while playing
cards, by one Jack Mccall, whose
brother Hickock had previously slain.
Jack Mccall paid the penalty of his
crime on the gallows at Yankton, Da-
kota Territory. But "Wild BILL who,
according to natural laws ought to be
hale and hearty today, died at the age
age of SO, with record of two men
killed for every year of his life. Not
much in the Bad Man game.-Atch-

The Badger Fight.

One of the best of the badger
fights 50 far was the one pulled
off Wednesday evening. l.. f..
Cowling was master of ceremo-
MES, NJ. +. Slower. Col. RuSk and
w. j. Redfearn referees. The
contest was between Jim Gam
ble'S old badger, Jack, and Geo.
Reynolds dog. Considerable
money was put up with odds
largely in favor of the badger as
the dog was still suffering from
wounds received in a similar com
bat some two weeks ago. The
interest over Impossible outcome
was intense as the badger had
an experienced champion and
coach in the person of John j.
Lane, of Minneapolis, MINI. Mr..
Lane had, he said, seen many of
these cOmbats in other portions
of the world; he said it was cruel
in the extreme and would be eS-
pecially so. in this instance, as
the dog was crippled in one foot
to begin with. He was willing,
however, to see and participate
in this one "drawing' in Texas.
His opinion, thus freely express
ed, and being that of an expert,
had much to do in inclining the
