intended the publication as a sort of d

but the idea didn't pan out, and two
years ago the paper was taken over by
the Nationa Post Company, with E. E.
Garrison as president, j. L. Gilbert as
vice president and treasurer, and Sam

PRIZE FIGHTS IN ATLANTA;
WHERE is DR.. BROUGHTON!

Atlanta, Jan. Prize fighting has
made distinct hit in Atlanta and is
undoubtedly here for good and all.
The class of matches put on the past
two weeks has made the club solid
with the many fans and no longer will
they be content without bout once a
week.
Prior to the opening of Staten's
Club Atlanta was without a boxing
club, which in large measure was
due to the opposition to the game by
several ministers. The game as now
conducted is on the highest level at
tainable and no kick from any quarter
has been made. All are thoroughly
satisfied with the class Of fights being
put on and are supporting the club as
it should be to make it a success. Only
the better class of fighters appear and
no dirty work has to be contended
with.

Plight Of a BIbliophlIe.

The opening Of the catalogues which
arrive by post affords book buyers
some exci'i moments. Charles Mon
selet, In mis- "Curiosites Litteraires,"
tells of a friend Of his living at Bor-
deaux who, glancing through Paris
booksellers catalogue, saw the title
of a book which he had vainly sought
for 80 years Looking at the clock, he
found there was just time to catch the
morning express for Paris. Stopping
only to take some money from his
cash box, he dashed off to the station,
and arrived at the bookshop in time
to secure the prize. AS he wrapped up
the book the shopman remarked: II
suppose you live in this street, mon
sieur" mo, have just come from
Bordeaux" was the reply. The man
looked astonished, and the bibliophile
discovered that, In his eagerness, he
had Travelled $50 miles in dressing
gown and slippers, and had never no
ticed any deficiency of attire.

Everyone Follows Races.

The Hippodrome, one OF the finest
race tracks in the world, Is owned by
the Buenos Aires Jockey club, and
it's enormous revenue is derived from
this source. The Argentinians are
born gamblers, and they wager al
most incredible sums on horse flesh.
The municipal statistics of Buenos
Aires show that $25, 100000 in Amer
lean gold was wagered upon the-rac
at the Hippodrome last year. This
is an average Of 80 Argentine dollars
for each man, wOmau and child in
that great city. Naturally the report
ed figures do not include all the mon
ey wagered on horse racing, so that
the true sum is no doubt several mil
lions in excess of the reported figures.
There are none so old and few so
young that they will not wager few
pesos on a favorite. The tense faces
Of all present show the personal in
terest in result. The jockey club re-
ceives as its share 10 per cent of all
bets, besides the entrance fees and
seat sales.-Travel Magazine.

VINCE PIE AND APPLE
DUMPS PUT UNDER A BAN

South Hadley, Mass, Jan. 1.-Pie is
under the ban at Mount Holyoke Col
lege. The faculty has prepared a sur
prise for the girls when the latter re
turn tomorrow from their holidays.
There is to be no more mince pie on
the college tables. The apple dump
ling also gets the faculty hook, so to
speak.
BY this means the faculty will try to
keep the girls awake after luncheon.
1t is hard to see how the faculty
could displease the girls more. Mount
Holyoke girls fairly dote on mince
pie for luncheon. They will go a good
way for apple pudding, but mince pie,
according to the faculty and board is
the ideal lunch with many students.

BLONDE SOLDIERS DRINK
MORE THAN BRUNETTES DO

Washington, Jan According to a
report made by Major w. p. Chamber
ain. of the Medical Corps, the blonde
soldier in the Philippines is a heavier
drinker than the brunette.
Otherwise the fair-haired man is
just as good as the man with the ra-
ven locks, when it comes to military
conduct.
For the information of those who
contemplate joining the service, at
tention might be called to Major
Chamberlain's statement that sickness
in the soldier GROUP in the Philippines
is more frequent among the blondes,
while in the south constabulary police
group the brunettes suffer most.
