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. BARGAIN IN ORGANS.
