THE HUSTLER OF ROME. WEDNESDAYOCTOBER 31 1894,
TH ETHIGS OF PUGILISM.
A Story Which Might Have Been
But Never Will be.
Corbett and Jackson, according
to the latest outlook,will not fight,
says the Texas Siftings. The great
pound sociable will not couie est
there is considerable disappoint
ment spread out all over the Uni
ted States in consequence.
While piize fighting is undoubt
edly a disgrace tocivilizaticn some
how or other about bine men out
of ten take an absorbing interest
in finding out which pugilist is
most likely to take the cake —the
pound cake of course.
These pound sociables ar« pro
hibited by law, and it is very diffi
cult, particularly in northep
stales, for two pugilists to maul
each other. Os course they could go
[off quietly in the woods and maul
each < tber, but the real object of a
piize fight is to make a great deal
of gate money. This involves so
much publicity that the officers c;
of the law have ample time to in
terfere.
It is very discouraging to a prize
fighter to tram for mouths,, doing
real hard physical labor every day.
drinkmg no whisky, and suffering
other hardships and then have the
police break up the fight. At the
same time thare is reason to believe
that in many cases there is no se
rious intention of having a fight st
all.
The conference between Corbett
and Jaekson was scmewhatsimilar
to a dispute that occurred not long
since iu new York between the
German driver of an ice wagon and
an Irishman with a dray.
“Gome out o’ that,” reared the
drayman. “C<>me out of your ice
waggin till I bait the ground wid
yez, ye flop eared Maggard. Dance
I to me, ye
' “Look me owitt” howled his an
tagonist. “Look me owit!” Oh
chimminy grashus, if somebody
makes mu once mad already, 1
shake me out of my breeches, if
shebeen mine own sadder. Off
you get sometimes it vas pedder
you tunned uvay before I get me
crazy mad I ”
“Whoop!” howled the blood,
thirsty Celt. “Come out o’ yer
cairt, ye murdering thafe of the
wurld, till I skin ye alive. Put up
fishts, ye Mohawk! Wasn’t me
own fayther wan of the Killman
aisys of Killatlick, an’ a cair full of
ice?”
And the iceman got a hatchet
and the drayman got a draypin,
and they danced up and down the
alley and yelled and whooped and
howled and shrieked and pounded
the side of the house, and tore up
the paving stones, and called for
blood, and pawed dirt, and roared
and wept, and finally got on their
respective vehicles and rode away
—bloodless.
HAM AND EGGS
11. H. Kohlsatt, the ex-owner of
the Chicago Inter-Ocean, is nego
tiating for the Tribune of that,
city. Ho is a brilliant journalist
and will stir things up if he secures
the Tribune. A gentleman from
Chicago spoke of Kohlsatt the
other night at the Armstrong: “I
have known him for a number of
years, and he has made his rise in
the world by ind< mitable pluck
and energy. Many years ago
he was a poor young fellow, travel
ing for Blake’s bakery. He finally
married Blake’s daughter, and the
tide of his fortune changed. He
managed several fashionable res
taurants in the Windy City, and
made big money. He has been ex
tremely lucky in real estate. He
bought the site on which the pres
ent Inter-Ocean building stands,
for $150,000. People laughed at
him, but in less than a month he
sold out to Marshall Field for SSO
- profit on his purchase.
“It has been so with every ven
ture. Everything he touched
changed to money. He securred
the controlling interest of the In
ter-Ocean, and electrified the
whole country by his brilliant in
novations in the news and editori
al service. He made the paper in a
few short months the leading re
publican daily of this country. He
s »ld his interest in the Into:-Ocean
at an enormous sum. If he gets
the Tribune look out for a red-hot
journal.”
The time has come when man
can no longer scoff at the possi
bility of woman taking a promi
nent place in the walks of life
which have always been held ex
clusively by the sterner sex. The
age is upon us when woman will
take her place in eveiy calling and
profession where she is to measure
her intellect and pluck with man.
Take the field of literature for the
past year. Who has written the
books- that set the literary world
agog? Women. Beatrice Harridan,
a little woman so feeble and deli
cate in frame that her short con
tributions to literature, have been
accomplished under great difficul
ties, gave us “Ships-that Pass in
the Night,” Sarah Grand wrote
’ The I’seventy Twins.”’ And then
that weird book “A Yellow Aster
by lota.
But woiyan’s abilities are not
confined to-literature. In science,
law, politics, etc., her influence
and brain is felt. The day is sure
ly dawning when the right of na
tional suffrage will he granted. In
many State# it is already the case
Hu a limited degree. To many this
I may all sound like nonsense, but
read the papers, watch the- trend
iof the twentieth century, amd see
iifit is not so. The woman ©f the
next century is the coming man I
Mr. T. Coons, advance a«ent of
Prof. Gentry’s Dog and Pony show,
which will lie Monday Tuesday and
Wednesday, is in the city adver
tising his show Prof. Gentry is
the most celebrated dog and pony
trainer in the business today, and
carries with him eighteen ponies
and sixty dogs. It requires an in
finite amount of patience? to train
these animals. He has a dog that
turns back sumersaults in quick
succession, and it took just eleven
months to learn the deg how lo
perform this one act. He has a
three year old pony that weighs
seventy odd pounds and all are
small animals. The tent will be
spread on Second Avenue at the
old show grounds.
