Hoped luto a IiaJ Bet.

A Detroiter who deals in real estate, law, insurance, loans, lawsuits, politics, etc., went over to Chicago the other day. While 11 wiring that city a man came to him and confidentially remarked: "There's a chap in the car back there trying to get a $20 bill changed. If a a base counterfeit, and I want to put you on your gnard."

He was warmly thanked for his kindness and passed on, and five minutes later a man appeared with a bill in his hand and asked: 'Friend, can yon change this twenty?" •Sorry to say I can't," was the prompt reply. 'Well, let me have ten and you keep the bUl until we get to Chicago.'' *Can't do it." •Can't von let me liave five?" "No." •Perha])S you are afraid of the bill. I don't claim to know much rIhuu ij' ciev. Is it good or bad?" "It's a counterfeit." •*•. '•'No!" "I'm sur-- i'f it." "It ain't be. I'll bet tlve facc valuo o! it that it is a good bill. Leud nie

"Well, il will be worth $20 to find out about it," said the stranger, and off they went to the conductor. "Give me two tens foe this?" brusquely queried tlve stranger, as he handed out the bill. "If 1 can," replied the couductor, scarcely glancing at it.

He made out a ten and two lives and passed them over, and the Detroiter handed over the amount of his bet, kicked himself ifco the next car, and he never saw a bit of Lake Michigan as tho train made its way into Chicago.—Detroit Free Pres*.

NkwOulfaxs, Jan. 15.—Dempsey, the invincible, the Nonpareil, is no more the champion middle-weight iiri/.e-liglit-cr of the world. Bob Fitzsimmons. the tall New Zealander, in a single fight has leaped into the front rank, gaining the title of middle-weight cliam-v. pion and winning $12,000. lie whipped Dempsey Wednesday in thirteen rounds before 4,500 men from all parts of the country in the rooms of the Olympic Athletic Club. Dempsey was outclassed from the start. The city is ringing with Fitzsimmons' praises, and such good judges as Prank Stevenson, Jim Corbett, Billy Meyer, Parson Davies and others of like note declare him nothing short of a

phenomenon, and voice the opinion that a great mauy of the heavy-weights have no business with him. lie demonstrated his ability to the satisfaction of everybody when he defeated the acknowledged king of his class for so mauy years with such astounding ease. Dempsey never had the faintest glimmer of a hope of defeating the big blacksmith from the moment time was called for the third round, or the first round, either, for that matter, as Fitzsimmons forced the pace and drove his mau before him with irresistible force.

Dempsey lauded often enough to win a dozen tights, but the antipodean walked right over the "Nonpareil" and struck hi in two blows for the one received in return, llis reach was something wonderful. Dempsey's .secondsare censured for sending their man up like a beef to the slaughter when he had no chance of winning, but this criticism is liarsh, as they were in favor of throwing up the sponge. It was PempSiy himself who insisted on lighting on. his exhibition of gamcness being such that it will never be forgotten by those present. When he could scarcely raise his hands to a level with his chest. Fitzsinnuon* begged him to stop and said to hi'ii repeatedly: "I don't want to strike you. .lack."

Dempsey was attended by a physician in his dressing-room. lie was a sorry spectacle as he lay back with closed eyes. His nose is broken, and his eyes will both be very black. The Nonpareil is heart-broken, and would say nothing.

The mill lasted forty-nine minutes. The receipts of the club were ^!0,000, of which Si-.W0 went for the purse and $3,000 for expenses.

ATOICA. 1. T., Jan. ir.— Officers have received word to be on the lookout for certain parties suspected of robbing Judge J. J. Durant, of Durant, I. T., at Paris, Tex., Monday night. The burglars effected an entrance to the judge's room through a window and relieved him of JK.WIO worth of bank stock, SG00 in notes, a JUKI pin and his watch, valued at $350. and about $50 in cash.

BOSTON, Jan. 15.—The l'ost says that the principal manufacturers of spools, bobbins and shuttles in this country are interested in a consolidation scheme, and have had a man in England, who, it is hinted, has been successful in interesting British -capital in the proposed trust and tho formation of a syndicate with $5,000,000 capital to purchase the. business.

Indian Dettoraiive Art.

When the Sioux go on the warpath in anything like reasonable weather they exercise great economy in dress. They paint their poni* with red and black paint in cr"«sos. They also wear their hair loose and flowing, anil put a liberal allowance of red anil black paint on their faces. Decoraiive art prevails largely in their make up. Bugs, reptiles and animals. iw nearly as the rudely artistic mind of the Sioux can contrive, are {tainted on their foreheads and ohiiy. while a cposa of red and black paint adorn* «*ch cheek.—Denver Republican.

PAY MORE FOR CORN,

How to Ttlko CtU'O of o. l'lann With proper care and attention a good piano should last a family a lifetime. If this is not given it the piano will in time become harsh and "tin-paimy," and afford littift satisfaction or delight to its owner. Ordinary practice, whether by a child or a grown up person, will not injure a piano in any way. It is not necessary to be a professional piano player and to know exactly with what force to strike the keyB in order to keep the instrument in good condition.

Of course it will not be improved by thumping tho case or by striking the keys with any hard substance. Neither does this remark apply to schools and institutions where playing is taught, and the instrument is used continuously for ten or twelve honrs every day. In the

Dampness is the most dangerous enemy the piano has to contend against, and for this reason the climate must be considered. If the instrument is placed in a damp room, or left open in a draught of :ur, the result will be that the strings, tuning pins and the various metal parts will become coated with rust, and the cloth used in the const friction of tho keys and action becomes swollen. It is positively painful to play on such a piano.—Charles H. Steinway in Ladies' Home Journal.

Dress of New York-* Literary Wouien. The literary woman of the past was called a hi ue stocking. The literary woman of the present is a butterfly in dress. The gayest of colors, the richest of decoration, the extreme of the mode characterize her attire at the gatherings of Sorosis, where the literary element Btrongly predominates, and one is im pressed by the brilliancy of the spectacle. The president, Mrs. Clymer, is as picturesque in her attire as she is digni tied in her manner. Some combination of heliotrope and gray, with just a touch of yellow, make her seem like the original of some (piaint old painting. Jennie June, now that she has laid isile her willow's weeds, apjioars iu light golden brown dresses and mantles, with a bonnet in the same shade, trimmed with creamy lace.

Mrs. Dr. Lozier surprises every one with a new toilet *t every Sorosis meeting as beautiful and dressy as the paper slie reads is brilliaut a:ul unn.Mial. Mrs. Collis. the Alaskan traveler and writer, is a very handsome and effective dresser. Mrs. Ravenliill (Katherine Kidder's grandmother and teacher) is aa dainty and dressy in her attire as a girl, and the younger members, who do duty as ushers, among whom little Miss Demorest takes the lead, are as styii as they are courteous. Even Grace Greenwood's dear motherly face was shadowed by a bird with most brilliantly gorgeous yellow plumage all one winter.—New York Letter.

The Walk of tlio larincr.

It is well known that country folk, from being so constantly on their feet, aro usually blessed with understandings of more generous proportions than those of their city cousins, who, tempted by tho facilities for rapid transit, too often deny themselves sufficient exercise. This applies more particularly to the men. I have, seen soino country bred maidens with the neatest, slenderest and most dapper little feet in tho world. But then they don't plow from dawn to sunset As a rule, however, a countryman can be detected iu a city by the size of hh extremities.

Following the plow, too, naturally induces a jerkiness of gait—a peculiar uncertainty about the body's motion, which

out sooner than if it was nsed in a private family. The matter of tuning should not be neglected, and should never be intrusted to any other than an experienced person. Incapable tuners very often work irreparable injury to the most perfect and costly instruments. During the first year a new piano should be tuned every three or four months at least. After {hat it will only ba necessary to liave it tuned at longer intervals.

tirely remove. In tho man from the districts where the laud is still very rough these marks of his calling aro accentuated. Where tho land is full of burnt stumps and rocks plowing requires considerable strength and more skEQ, and the continual bracing up of the plow in the furrows has a tendency to make the farmer get into the habit of walking with his legs wide apart, as in this position he obtains greater control over the plow and maintains his equilionum.—Detroit Free Press.

The Ajo of Woman's High!.*. The century's closing decade m/y bring to woman a far wider and fuller entry into her domain. It is but a little over four decades—less than forty-two years ago—since the meeting of the first woman's rights convention. Tiie women who did the pioneer work, making not only that convention but all that has followed it of right and justice to women a possibility, are some of them still with us. Those of them who have "gone over to the majority" went thither within the full memory of a generation now living and working. The names of Lucre tia Molt, of Angelina and Sarah Grimke, of Frances D. Gage, of Abby Kelly Foster, of Sojourner Truth, barn a slave and rightfully coining to wear {lie title of the "Libyan Sibyl." were but a few years ago answered to on earth by their possessors. Today they may he well written on every woman's golden roll of remembrance of the dead.—Susan E. Dk-kinson iu Scranton Truth.

New Dress Shades.

Dress skirts are growing wider, particularly for evening dresses. Wasp gauze is a new matsrial, although gauzes and tulles are not so much worn in the evening as formerly, except for young girls. There are charming new sliades for dinner dresses. A peach flower is one of the most delicate and becoming. The pale reddish mauve is one of the best worn shades in foulards, particularly for yokes and sleeves with the spotted or rinsied foulards.—Boston 'I ranscript.
