The Victor Itecoroes a I.Ion nnd the Vanquished Is Left to Suffer tn Melancholy etlenee —Before and After the Battle.
Muffled to the ears in a dark-blue meater the heavyweight sat in his dressing-room. A couple of furrows, denoting concentrated thought, appeared in the narrow space between his eyebrows and hair, lie was about to enter the riny and expose his chin to the deadly knock-out blow. Near this macfnificent human brute hovered his trainer, also attired in a sweater, and keenly alert to 'very move and sound. The suave gentleman in the role of financial backer, who manipulates the gate receipts, was also there, trying to appear gay and debonaire, but palpably anxious. At the bolted door stood a fawning tinhorn sport without a jienny in his pocket, but with a good prospect of fondling a couple of dollars if things went right. lie knew the heavyweight from having seen his picture in the pink periodicals and worshiped him accordingly. The dressing-room contained little beside the heavyweightnnd his friends. In one corner was a wide cot of rough boards hastily knocked together, on which the pugilist reclined, thinking that he thought. On n table opposite stood a number of bottles containing whisky, alcohol and liniments. There were also a sponge, some fans and towels, and under the table a tub of ice. Outside could be hoard the roar of the rabble, at six dollars per head, enjoying the preliminary bout os seen through the murky haze of tobacco smoke. The event of the evening— the meeting of the heavyweights—was next on the programme. A favored few gained admittance to the dressingrooms, for there M ere two or three retreats. Substantial-looking men in cheese-colored overcoats and diamonds a shade or two lighter crowded in to shake the hand of the thumper on whom they bad staked their money, nnd to w hisper a word of encouragement in his ear. Some who were not sports, but had friends in that line, gazed awestricken at the reclining gladiator nnd his array of fighting paraphernalia. Having exhausted his oratory in making the match, the heavyweight had nothing to say, and those who did give vent to words spoke in subdued whispers. It was n painfully solemn nnd impressive occasion. Now nnd then the trainer, lest he be overlooked in the shadow of the stellar attraction, clipped a bit of court plaster with which he tenderly dressed an imaginary scratch on the prickled paws of his employer. Eventually the battle tak'-s place, nnd at the end of an hour the heavyweights are back in their rooms. The winner is now the most voluble of the excited throng which crowds the small apartment to the door. He recapitulates every blow given and taken during the fights and points out on the chin of the backer the exact spot on which lie landed the final punch. Everybody is deliriously happy, for they have won money, and call the backer familiarly by his first name. That astute individual is effusively olicitous for the welfare of his trained animal, and presses upon him a drink of brandy from a very small nnd curiously wrought bottle. The shape of t he flask creates the impression that the liquor is of a superior quality, distilled expressly for w inning pugs. He is slow about dressing himself, is the victor, for the red welts and gouges on his neck, breast and arms enhance his popularity 100 per cent. IJut lie affects not to notice these wounds and chats gavly about how he knew that dub wouldn't be in it with him, etc. They all finally depart, however, with the gate receipts, and spend the night in drinking champagne. Across in the other dressing-room the dub sits blinking dizzily at v acancy. He shakes so that the trainer is unable to dress the fallen idol. There is no one present but the trainer and a couple of poor but loyal friends who had nothing to stake on the result. Even the backer has retired in disgust, anti the hisses of the sports who supported the loser tie fore the fight, and w ho followed him as he was dragged limp nnd beaten from the ring, still sound in the purple ears of the vanquished mau. His stomach has been liammered back and welded to his spine, his nose broken and swollen and every bone and muscle in his painracked body aches. In melancholy silence, disturbed only by the intermittent groans of the pngilistic ruin, his trainer rubs him down with camphor and arnica, ocearionally pouring something from a black bottle into the throat of the sufferer. He still trembles like a man w ith palsy and is too weak and wabbly to stand witliout support. After an hour of grooming the victim of misplaced money, sodden with drink, is squeezed into his clothes, then bundled into a hack and spirited away through side streets and alleys to the oblivion of a Uamman bath. He is simply a whipped dog, with no more credit or standing than the bull pup chewed to finish in the regular pit. The other fellow is honored by the interviewers and his remarks are wired to every portion of the civilized world. Later on he opens a saloon and becomes a power in politics.—N. Y. Journal.

Some Valuable Information \boot tho Operattoiin of the Owners ami I*reject ora of C'talmM Stock Speculating. Cripple Creek, so far is is now know n, embraces a little area with a ra- | dus of not more than three miles. It I contains, all told, perhaps eight or ten square miles of ground. This at the outside world yield tihO or 700 full claims. On these there would he a possibility. I do not say a probability, of finding veins rich enough *o near the cost of vorking. There are in the district, so 'ar, some 12,000 located claims. You may judge of the probable vnloe of the most jf them. j Of these 12.000 claims of course the many are merely fractional. About 1,300 are patented, anti have title established. Of these 1,300, 200 are shipping ore. In other words, there are 10,000 odd claims in the district that so far as developed ore practically worth nothing at all. To put the matter In another way, ] upwards of 900 companies have been organized thus far to opeiate in the district, and dozens more nrii being put in the Held each week. Of these 900 or more companies about six per cent., of 50 or 00 in all, own producing mines. And of the latter but 12 of 15 are divi-dend-payers. Of course, in the clever nnd seductive circulars which the countless mining brokers scatter broadcast, you will road of this or that company which will bo a dividend-payer the very next week, or the very next month, or something like that, and whose stock may be bought now for a song, and later be , worth par. And they point to numerous instances—to such splendid mines ns the Portland, for example. Just a j year ago stock in tho Portland was selli ing at 40 cents, and now it is some- | where around 200, nnd paying a divi- ! dend of 12 per cent, on its value. There are a number of such instances as this, so that it is slight wonder that people j should lose their senses and invest in all sorts of worthless and “wild-cat” schemes that are thrown on the market. Cut if you will recall to mind that the gold kings of California did not make their money mining in the hills, but by manipulation on the stock exchanges, you may perhaps conclude to keep your money in a safe place. 1 do not mean that all of the stocks ofI fered on the exchanges of Colorado are | worthless, but I do mean to say that I most of the companies that are being | floated or offered in the east are the | sort that have no standing, or will | bring in Colorado nothing like the price i asked for them east. It is a fact that j more money is always spent on the claims next adjoining a bonanza mine than is ever taken out of the mine itself. In Colorado, or, for that matter, nil over the mining west, they divide mineowners into producers and consumers —into the men who put money into a mine and the men who get money out of it. The meaning of this is that mining has come to be a business or a science which requires skill and training, and technical knowledge, and the same amount of shrewdness and ability which is required for success in any other line of trade. There may be greater follies than for an eastern man to put his money into Colorado gold mines. Just at the moment I think of one—that is, speculating in mining stocks.—Harper’s Weekly. STANLEY AND THE CONGO. The Great Explorer Tell« ot ills Flrt Journey Donrn the tllver. The geographical world was anxiou to know what was this mysterious rive the quest of which hail occupied Lh ingstone’s declining years. The Lor do/1 Daily Telegraph joined with th New York Herald in defraying th cost of tliis second expedition. Th story of how 1 set out a second tim from Zanzibar, circumnavigated tb Victoria Nyanza, discovered Lake A bert Edward, voyaged around Lak Tanganyika, ami reached Livingstone 1 farthest point — Nyangwe — or. th banks of the Lualaba, has licen told i detail in my hook “Through the Par Continent.” It also relates how, afte a tedious land journey parallel with th river, I made ready my English boat collected about a score of native canbei embarked my follow ers, and how, afte a course of nearly 1,800 miles, w reached the Atlantic oceaji at th mouth of the Congo. By this river voy age the question which had puzzle* Livingstone for 11 years was solvet It is a noticeable fact that w hen I liega my descent of the Congo 1 was the.oul white man—excepting my companior Frank I’ocock—to be found be twee the Zambesi and the Bahr-el-Uhaza and between Zanzibar and the Lowe Congo. It may easily be understood why, o returning from the discovery of th great African waterway, I should b anxious that England should avail hei self of it. In 181(> England hail dis patched a naval expedition under Cap' Tuekey to ascend the Congo, but it tci minuted disastrously 200 miles inlanc in 1873 Capt. Grandy, another Englis officer, had attempted the task. 1 1876 Admiral Hewitt’s expedition lin suppressed the pirates of the Lowe Congo. For over CO years England ha kept watch over the Congo slavers Half of the expenses of my expeditio had been contributed in England. 8h was also rich, tender and just tdwai 5 the uatives, and her people were th best colonizers in the world. All thes facts were, in my opinion, claims tha might justify England in stepping foi ward and taking iiossession.— Henry 5 Stanley, in Century. —The public debt of Cleveland is $6,111,499 and the taxable property Is valued at $123,745,710.

A noticeable fact is that each wears a long white beard and none is bald. —“The underground railroad” was a secret arrangement, legally a conspiracy, by which fugitive slaves were concealed and sent secretly from place to place in Canada, which, being a British colony, was a safe place for them. It extended all over the north. Covington, Ky., was a principal station, and there were other stations all through Ohio and Indiana. levi Coffin, cf Cleveland, was the president mofe than 30 years. —One of the many natural wonders of Arizona scenery just mafic accessible by the opening up of new rail and stage roads is a remarkable natural bridge in the Tonto Basin, not far from Flagstaff.

The underside is grace fully arched and the upper perfectly level. The walls of the canyon arc honeycomliofl with caves, in which is a great profusion of stalactites and stalagmites. CONJURER WAS CONFIDENCED. HU Accomplice in a Trick Did Not Live Up to Ills Agreement. An illusionist was talking the other day of some of the accidents thatsometimes spoil the art of the conjurer. “It was in Nashville, Term.,” he said, “that I experienced areal knock-down blow. I was performing the wellknown trick of passing a marked coin into the center of an uncut orange. At least, that’s what a gtxnl many people thought l was tlojng. I used a silver dollar anti emphasized the trick bypassing the coin into the |>ocket of some boy whom I had enticed on to the stage. I will openly confess that the boy had to be n confederate and that the marked coin had its fellow in one previously prepared by me. One night as 1 was entering the theater, I looked around'for a likely youth to aid me in my double dealing. I picked a boy and promised 1o pass him in if he would follow my instructions. “ T am a conjurer,’ I said. T want you to put this dollar in your righthand trousers pocket. I’ll get you a seat in the front row. When l ask for somebody to come on the stage yon must come. Then I will ask you to produce the dollar.* ‘‘The boy promised everything, and, after making arrangements for him at the door, I left him. When I was ready for the dollar (rick, I saw my young confederate sitting open-mouthed in the front row. I had prevailed upon another member of the audience to lend me a dollar matked exactly as was that I had given to the boy. "I passed that borrowed dollar into the orungtq cut the fruit open and out dropped the Coin. Then I went on: “ ‘And now, ladies and gentlemen, 1 w ill perform a still more difficult feat. I have passedthedollar intotheorange. Now I w ill ask some member of the audience to step on the stage, and, w ithout going anywhere near him, I will pass the same dollar, marked ns you have seen, into the right-hand trousers pocket.’ “True to his bargain,the boy stepped to tbe stage, I stepped opposite him and asked: “ ‘Now, sir, have you ever seen me before?’ “ ‘No. sir,’ was the answer. “ T have here a dollar,’ I continued. T am going to pass it into your righD hand trousers pocket. One—two— three—go!’ "I made the proper magician’s pass, and smiled upon my audience. “ ‘Now,’ I said to my nssisiant, 'put your hand into your right-hand trousers pocket, and give me the dollar.* “The boy looked a bit sheepish, but he dived his fist down. Then, to my Unutterable horror, he produced a handful of silver and said: “ ‘I’ve only got 90 cents of it left, »Ir.’ “I went out in a hurry and took a drink.”—N. Y. Times.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. so ml* IlintH Which the WUo Woman Will Do Well to Note. There is little change to record in table linen, except that the pretty colored lunch cloths ure 110 longer in vogue, and I ata sorry. They were miicb more cheerful than the small square of linen in the center of a hare oak table now preferred. The colored cloths now serve as a cover when the table is not in use. There ure very pretty ones, in delft blue and white; and another dainty pattern shown is on pule pink and silver. If you wish pie-crust to be very nice, fold it, lay it on a [flute, and stand in the refrigerator over night. This will improve a good plain piuste so that it is almost as flaky ns a puff paste. In sealing a pie moisten the inside, but not on the edge, with a pastry-brush dipped in water or the white of an egg. Put tlie upper crust in place and press the two together with the thumb dippe 1 in flour. Press together, but not on the exaot edge, or the pastry w ill not rise. When the ice chest smells queer and yet it is immaculately clean in every nook and cranny of the compartment, pour some boiling hot soda water down tho escape pipe and look at the fearfully and wondcrfnlly made rope of solid matter that is washed down by the soda water. The pipe ought to be thus Hushed once a week to keep tbe refrigerator sweet. No serv.iiit does this of her own free will. Many mistresses don’t, either. Pour in cold w ater afterward to cool off the box and wipe dry. Food keeps better in a dry, cold atmosphere than it can in a damp, cold one. A great many women in this world who fancy themselves good cooks spoil every bit of food that they prepare, except, perha]*:, hard-boiled eggs and baked potatoes. They are careless ami indifferent. If a recipe calls for more than they happen to have they make, it up with water; if they do not happen to have the herbs nnd seasonings for tie turkey stuffing, they *L> not bother to go or send to the grocer’s for them— just leave them out. They cut down the amount of butter that, a rrcipe calh for because butter is expensive, nnd the result of these little economies and carelessnesses is that the food is flavorless, spiritless and wearisome to the palate. Really, they waste a good deal because the food, not being es|>eoia!]y good, is not all eaten, nnd some must be thrown away. Generally, economy is excellent, but not economy of that kind. When particular linking is receiving attention and several unfamiliar dishes are being manufactured, it is of special importance to have the oven in perfect condition, and as far as possible under the control of the cook. The best of stoves, says an experienced housewife, are tricky sometimes, and bear watching. Nearly each one has its pet peculiarity. A tendency to burn at the bottom, or a habit of scorching at the top, while the lower part remains raw and sodden. Familiarity will enab’e the cook to correct these difficulties She will overcome the first fault by placing the grating of a pan under the baaing dish, and the other by covering the cake or loaf with a pan or paper until the liottom is done. A plain piece of manilla paper laid over the top of a cake will insure thorough, even bakflig, when without this arrangement the top would become scorched long before the cake was baked through.—Chicago Inter Ocean. Asthmatic Attack*. The immediate cause of the distress of an asthmatic patient struggling for breath is the contraction of the bronchioles, which prevents the exhalation of the air from the lungs without the greatest effort. Temporary relief from an asthmatic attack may nearly always lie obtained by causing the patient to inhale some narcotic vapor, by means of which ihe pneumogastric nerve is obtunded, and thus tlie spasms are made to cease. This, however, is ol>jectionable, as it not infrequently gives rise to a drug habit- Before trying the narcotic, it is best to obtain relief, if possible, by attacking the cause of the trouble. For instance, if it be accompanied by u fit of indigestion, washing out the stomach by means of a stomach tube will often relieve the most distressing paroxysm. If caused by a prolapsed stomach or a free kidney, permanent relief may be obtained by restoring these organs to proper position. Hot and cold sponging of the spine and tbe application of an ice compress, or a rublier bag filled with broken ice, on the front part of the neck, are also means which have been found of great service in this trouble.—N. Y. lodger.
Lockx of All Color*. An Atchison young man gets a lock of hair from every new “steady” and lias collected an elaborate array during the ten years lie has been in the market The color of the hair in his collection | varies from a bright red to a coalblack. He has over CO specimens, which shows that lie has averaged a new "steady" every tw o months during the time lie lias lieen gathering his collection. Some of his specimens have faded badly, showing that the haid had been dyed. One specimen has changed from a deep black to red and gray. He prizes his collection very highly and keeps it locked up for fear some one will steal it. Whenever he sees a girl with a shade of hair which is different from anything he has in his collection he immediately goes after her and sho becomes his “steady” until he gets a leek of heir hair. Then he goes after another girl with a new shade of hair, lie has heard of girls who had blue hair and is now looking for one. He claims to have seen a girl with a little blue mustache, but was afraid to ssk for a specimen.—Atchison Globe.

A NOBLE LIFE SPENT FOR AND WITH SUFFERING WOMEN. A Lifo’s Work Perpetuated Hirongh a Faithful Daughter, nud Records of Priceless Value. fSPECIAL TO OUB I.AtlY READERS [ What a vast amount of misery and suffering has been prevented by the e\.arheaded foresight of one noble woman! | She had struggled, labored, and sacrificed for the welfare of her sex. Tlie eyes of the women of the world were upon her. —«$
As she recalled the past, and tried to
penetrate the future, a smile of supreme satisfaction passed over her honest face as she remembered that her life’s work would be perpetuated. The room in which she, sat contained hundreds of volumes of records; and, turning to iter daughter, site said, — “My daughter, this room, as you well know, contains the records of my life's work, in which fo’-’ many years you have so diligently assisted me. “ By earnest application you have compassed my methods; and it is a happiness to think that when I leave, the glorious work will, through you, go on. “ The mission is a noble one.
