The Corbett-Fitzsimmons paper
prize fight goes merrily on with not
the slightest sign of a knock-out on
either side. If the two pugilists use
their lists with as much facility as
they do their pens the mill between
them, if it should ever come off, would
have to oe a pugilistic continued
•tory.
License is always to bo conceded to
a poet who engages in tho work of
describing a beautiful painting, but
the writer who says: "Her chestnut
hair is neatly brulded downhor back,"
has not improved upon the more
familiar lino of tho vaudeville song:
"And her golden hair was hanging
down her back."
Over 600 men entered the fresh-
man class at Yale; tho real class, not
the tpecials. This is equal in number
to the entire lot of students in tho
college, say twenty years ago. It is
extremely unlikely that the old-fash-
ioned class feeling, which has always
been a great feature at Yale, can bo
preserved now that tho classes are so
large.
Now that tho changes have been
pretty well wrung on the old fad of
cancer-producing tomatoos, the other
extreme is being resorted to by tho
adoption of all sorts of commonplace
vegetables as antidotes. Hod clover
is being put forth es a sure cancer
cure. In many parts of the country
any abnormal swelling is at once
looked upon as a tumor of tho malig-
nant type, and red clover eating at
once urged.
Tith ostuto (if tho late John Stein-
berger has long been distributed in
the belief that no will existed. Now a

teresting to lawyers, but if tho two
seta of claimants are of an economical
turn they will relinquish every right
and bo happy to learn that tho estate
will cover the certain legal aiul possi-
ble judicial feo.
Patriotism in Japan animates all
ranks of the people, the mendicant,
priests and nuns contribute thoir mites
to the war fund, whilo the empress
and the ladiesof tho nobility give their
jewels and prepare with their own
hands lint and other assuagements for
the wounded. This patriotic spirit in-
vites tho admiration of all the world
except China, and may not bo without
appreciation oven in that torpid and
insensible land, which has the best of
reason for being interested in it.
The pugilistic controversy has
reached the farcical stage. Fitzsim-
mons complains that Corbett, as cham-
pion of tho world, must accept a chal-
lenge from him; yet declares that if
he, Fitzsimmons, gains tho champion-
ship he will refuse to fight Peter Jack-
son on account of color, though Jack-
son is perhaps tho one man who can
do'eat him. As long as Fitzsimmons
maintains this attitude toward Jack-
son so long will Corbett have a loop-
hole of escape in popular opinion.

Co-operative business and manu-
facturing enterprises have a record of
many failures in this country, but in
England they appear to have been
more uniformly successful. In twenty
years ending with 1891 tho number of
co-operative societies in Great Britain
increased from 746 to 1656, their capi-
tal from $12,607,000 to $36,111,170,
the annual sales from $47,818,000 to
$244,608,485, and tho annual profit
