A Law for the Sluggers.

Cilcago Re.-owL Monday evening’s prize-fights at the Roby club-rooms indicate that the governor of Indiana has accepted the results of his own untoward act. Sheriff Frederick occupied his old box at the Columbian club, but even after the fights were over he did not again attempt arrests. It is not at all likely that those arrested at the first exhibition will ever be brought to a trial. The shrewd manner in which the prize-fight bill of the last legislature is worded apparently precludes the possibility of a conviction under the law. And how completely the wording of this law pulled wool over the eyes of the governor! In construction it is a ghastly exhibition of mutilated rhetoric, but it would seem to be patent enough in its intent: “It shall be iawful to organize associations for the purpose of buying, leasing and holding mineral springs, the improvement of the grounds attached thereto and the building and carrying on of hotels, bath houses and other conveniences thereon for the use of visitors, and to organize associations for the purpose of carrying on pleasure or health resorts, the erection of and maintenance of hotels, clubs, boating and bathing houses, sanitariums and gymnasiums in connection therewith, and for the maintenance of gymnastic or physicial training schools, and for the giving therein of athletic exhibitions and other contests of science and skill.” Mineral springs and prizefights are scarcely to be looked for in a single sentence, and while the combination tricked the governor into signing the bill it will still point always to the methods and the motives of the man who framed it. Chartered as a club for the purpose of maintaining a “pleasure and health resort, boating and bathing houses, sanitariums and gymnasiums and physical training schools,” the Columbian Athletic association is perhaps secure in its position until the meeting of the next Indiana legislature. In the meantime it is hoped that Sheriff Frederick’s box at the prize-ring will not be taken from him when the club discovers that he does not Sneed to be longer propitiated.

A Looloo.

A tenderfoot had announced his determination of relieving a few of the miners congregated in the Locale, a gambling den in Butte City, Mont., of whatever spare change they might happen to have about them. Without much trouble he found a victim who was willing to try a hand or two at poker. Luck favored the stranger from the start and he Won steadily. Finally he drew four aces and after the stakes had been, run up to a considerable figure he magnanimously refused to bet-further. “This is downright robbery,” he exclaimed, “and I don’t want to end the game here by bankrupting you. So here goes.” He threw down four aces and reached for the money. “Hold on!” cried his antagonist. “I’ll take care of the dust, if you please.” “But I held four aces—see?” “Well, what.of it? I’ve got a looloo.” “A what?” “A looloo—three clubs and two diamonds. I guess you aren’t accustomed to our poker rules out here. See there?” As he spoke he jerked his thumb toward a pastboard card which ornamented the walls of the saloon: It read:

: a 100100 : : BEATS 4 ACES. ! The game proceeded, but it was plainly evident that the unsophisticated young tiger hunter had something on his mind. Within five minutes he suddenly braced up, his face was wreathed in smiles, and he began betting once more with his former recklessness. In fact he staked his last dollar on his hand. Just at this juncture the barkeepei stopped in the midst of the concoction of a Manhattan cocktail and quietly hung up another card behind the bar and above the dazzling array of glasses and bottles. The stranger threw down his cards with an exultant whoop. “It’s my time to howl just about now!” he cried, as he reached for the money. “There’s a 100100 for you—three clubs and two diamonds.” “Tut, tut!” exclaimed the miner. “Really this is too bad. You evidently don’t understand

oir rules at all. Why look at that rrfe over there.” The bit of pasteboard bore this legend. : THE LOOLOO CAN BE PLAYED \ BUT ONCE A NIGHT.

Chicago, the Fair and the Fire.

One of the most remarkable facts noticable among the great influx of visitors to the Fair is their keen interest in the great city, her past history and present wonderful growth, and the marvelous rebuilding that has taken place since Chicago was swept away by the flames of the fire of 1871. This is nowhere more manifest than at theCyclorama of the CHICAGO FIRE, Michigan Avenue and Madison Street, where the beautiful effects that the artists have secured in painting the great conflagration are like nothing ever yet shown in cycloramic work — the burning embers, hurled through the air by the hurricane that was blowing on that memorable October day, the toppling walls, portions of which are shown in mid air, blown there by an explosion of giant powder, clouds of ruddy hue, tinted by the flames, the shadows of which are dancing on the doomed buildings—all so realistic as to be startling in their effect, and one can almost imagine the work of destruction to be at the moment going on. The visitor to Chicago will find this one cf the most interesting exhibitions in the city.

All Sorts.

Maoris of New Zealand own about ten million acres. A Buffalo young man says that he was drugged and kidnapped by his relatives to prevent an obnoxious match. Mrs. Edward Nason, of Biddeford, Me., has a husband intermittently. He has run away fourteen times in less than as many years. In Lewiston, Me., a woman called the police to arrest a burglar. He proved to be a man who was courting the woman’s sister S. William Douglas and wife, of Lanark, Scotland, were born on the same day and hour, married at nineteen, lived together eighty years and died on the same day. The Mormon Tabernacle choir. 250 strong, will take part in the World’s Fair musical contest at Chicago in September under the direction of Prof. Evans Stephens, of Salt Lake City. There is a new England woman whose pastor recently asked after her health. Her reply was: “I feel very well, but I always feel bad when I teei well, because I know lam going to feel worse afterward.” The grip left some queer wrecks. George Danner, a Western farmer, is one of them. After partial recovery he was seized with sobbing tits, which quickly gave way to continuous laughter. He is slowly recovering. " The Florida fruit exchange is authority for an estimate that the coming crop of oranges in that state will aggregate 4,500. • 000 boxes, or nearly one million boxes more than has ever been produced in a single season.

A correspondent of the Pittsburg Dispatch is responsible for this paragraph: “Charles Burson, an employe at the mills at that place, attracts considerable attention among his fellow employes. His hair is naturally white, but after working in the mills for a few hours and becoming heated it turns a brilliant red. When Bruson leaves the mill and cools off his hair resumes its natural color. “Rattlesnake Pete,” of Oil City, Pa., as his name would indicate, is a man of somewhat grewsome tastes. He is now proudly wearing a doublebreasted sack coat, a pair of trousers made of rattlesnake skins so arranged that the yellow and black stripes form a pleasing effect; that is, Pete thinks they do. It took him four years to gather the skins for this suit, and he had to kill 125 snakes to do it. The buttons of his coat are rattlesnake heads mounted with gold.
