Tex Richard himself is too busy to
bother with referees just now. He
is spending his time figuring on how
he is going to seat the $4,000 persons
who will try to get in the arena he
will construct. The walls OF the en-
closure, he has stated, viii be built
as high as the laws allow, in order
to get patrons in every section as
close as possible to the ring.
Seat prices have been advanced.
BIeacher patrons will be charged SO
and the range from there will be to
$50. This includes war taxes. Much
care in printing the tickets will be
taken in order to prevent duplica-
ton. Scalpers will be crushed so far
as possible, but already spectators
are planning to procure the admis-
sion cards. An offer of 100000 for
a block has been declined.

Lonq.Lived Superstition.

We wonder whether the Turkish
prisoner who foretold the end Of the
war by means Of the shoulder blade of
a sheep had ever read "Giraldus Cam
brensis' Itinerary Through Wales"
made in the year 118S.
If 80, he would have read In Chap
ter XII that these people (the Elem.
ings Of Pembrokeshire), from the in
spection of the right shoulders of rams
which have been stripped Of their
flesh, and not roasted but boiled, can
discover future events, or those which
have passed and remained long un-
known"
A footnote tells us that this curl,
Gus superstition is still preserved in
a debased form among the descend
ants of the Flemish population Of this
district, where the young women prac-
tice sort Of divination with the blade
bone Of a shoulder Of mutton to dis
cover who will be their sweetheart.

fury, found the same superstition ex-
listing among the Tartars." Now. in
the twentieth century. we find it
among the Turks.-London Chronicle
