Tlioro was a illsputo Iho first night as to who should occupy tho single bed. and tho young man whoso coffee had horn ilotod hit iipou a plan to huvo what to his idcunppoarod to do tun. Tlmt niornwg ho bought n box of small carpet tucT.B, and after tho chambermaid had vihitod their rooms this goiuus slipped up. stairs inilltid down tho Lod-clothing of the Muglo boil and sprinkled n layor of tacks over tlifl sheet. That night there was a raco botneontho trio to see who coulu undress tho quickest and secure tho single bod. 'Ihe jokor who hod dosed tho coffee and the ono who had spread the tacks reliovcd theuisohes of thoir clothing very ropidlv, nu I tlioro was 5 Brand rush for tho slnglo btd. Tho ono who had put up tno job with tho tacks reached it Jlrst. Ho had evidently for gotten about what ho had dono, for soon a tcr getting in ho rollod over. There was a wild " whoopl" and a. veil of limn, at tho joker jumped from tho couch, "i lie others at onco reallzod what had hap pened and tho loom resounded with yolls of lau htor. Tho bitorwas bitten, and for tho noxt twenty niinulos ho sat on the bed and picked tacks out of liu body. Ilmr nn Aullinrltntlvo Dcmennor Hnb iluril nn "I." Ilnnn Guard.

" It's imno o' mv busiuoss. I ain't hero to. attend lamps nohow." 1'iotly soon other pnssongors como out and ciuiplalned, bat all received a sullen answer. At lirand street an old gentleman boardod tno train mid moved up until ho was directly under the lamp. It stayed to drip and came down in largo drops on hii lml. Suddenly ho discovered m bat it wai. Coolly walking out to tho guto mau ho said : " Young man, do you sco that lamp loak iug oor ovorybody." "Yes, sir, I do, but it nin't nono o' my business, you know." "Veil, you go straight in there and fix it. Thoro, there, now. 1 don't wont to hear any tu k liom you, but you do as you'ro told.

AND SrORTINO MEN FAVOR THE 0NE-TH00-SAND-DOLLAR CHAMPIONSHIP STAKE.

That ono-thousand.dollar ccamplonshlp stako is bound to como into vogue. That is tho verdict of nil tho Bportlug men. They aro agreed that tho high stakes demanded by chnmpious is moroly a ruso to ovoid fighting. Thoy nil say that as far as tho money is concerned as much could bo mado by having tho stakes S1.C00 ns $G,000. Let tho champions niako their inoncV on outsido bets, thou tho less wealthy lighters will bo given n chnnco to meet tho champions, and perhaps knock them out. A Trust composed of rich pugilists is as unfair to other pugilists ns a powerful mercantile Trust Is unfair to less wealthy merchants. If tho champions nro nfrald to risk meeting tho lesser stars, lot them glvo up prizefighting and go into somo other business. Appended ore a few opinions: J. H. Cusack I'ndoubtedlv tho stakes should bo modo $1,000. Champions proba bly cannot bo forced to fight for that amount. Hut somo means should bo dovised to make them, or forfeit tho championship. fioo. II. Engomsn A stako of 81,000 Is sufficient. If a man won't accopt a clmllongo for that amount ho don't want to fight very much. " Al " Rmlth-Of courso 1,000 is nn omplo Btako. Why, tho champion can make bar rels of money outsido of tho stake. A cham pion might say ho wouldn't fight for loss than r0,000ur $100,0' 0. Ho would then bo uuito sure ho would never havo to fight any. body. Putting tho stakes bo high doesn't givo tho rising talent any show at all. Tho champions just work tho high. stako racket to scare off would-be challengers. A stand vd rulo to have $1,000 flxod as o championship stako would I o a good thing. It is quite timo this woro dono. Then thero would bo nioro fighting and loss bluffing. ' Al " Smith will not rcforoo tho McAnliffe. Holy fight. This is decisive. If you uou't bebevo it just read hi remarks on this nnd sundry othor subjeoU which ho modo last night to the writer of this column : "So you want to know if I'll rofcroe that fight, do you y Tim Evenino World said the other day that it was reportod that Daly objected to my acting as rcorco. Well, you jix-t sit down there and let mo talk to you as I never have to anv othor reporter. " I will never refereo n fight in which Jack McAulill'o takes part. I couldn't referee a light in which ho is engaged, holding tho opinion of him that I have, over since his flaht with Carney. In that fight ho actod in tho most cowardly woy I ever sow n mou net. Ho wouldn't Btaud up and fight nt all. Carney chased him ail ovor tho ring and McAuliffo invariably took refuse behind his soconds. 1 was to havo boon rofcreo and Btako-holder of tho tight, but resigued lu order to bet on Car. ney. I had witnessed the fight between Carney und Jim Mitchell, of Philadelphia, and do eided thot Carney was a hotter man thail McAuliiTo. In tho Camov-MoAuliffn fight tho refereo was dead on MeAullffo's side. Tho Carney folks woro simply robbed of their monoy by him. Carney really won tho fight n dozen timoB. Whenever Carney cbasod McAuliffo into his cornor. ho was kicked on tho shins bv McAuliffo's backors. Onco McAuliilo's brother ' Con ' hit Carney two blows. I never bow such unfair proceedings at n fight in my life. Carney . constnntly asked McAuliffo to stand up just one round, and McAuliffo wouldn't. Tho crowd had already broken into tho ring twico, when the referee invited thorn to do it a third timo and so sa o his favorite, MoAnlitte, from boing beaton by announcing tlmt if tho ring was brokou into again ho would call tho fight a drnw. Of course tho crowd took tho hint and broke iu immediately. That's all that saved McAuliffo. I wish you could havo seen tho way McAuliffo ran for his quarters from tho bam where tho fight took plaoo. Ho beat all tho 100-yard sprinters I over saw. I was refereo in his fight with Qilmoro. Ho modo nn exhibition of himself in that fight, too. He tried to claim foul threo times when thoro were no fouls committed. Ho said (Jilmoro tried to gone" him. Gilmore didn't do onvthlng of the kind. ' McAuliffo has boen greatly overrated. If ho ever meets Meyerogoin, tho bottlng will bo 100 to CO lu Meyer's favor. And this will bo bet by the very men who Uid their money on McAuliffo in the recent McAnliffo-Moyer tight, Meyer can do him every timo. Now, I want to toll you that the reports about Daly objecting to mo as referoo are wholly un founded. Iain thoonowhoobjects. I won't havo anything to do with McAuliffo. ' Why, tho other night Capt. William Daly nnd his p.irly wero iu here and offered to make tho stako b2,SO0. ns McAuliffo wished, if I would act as roforee. I haul I wouldn't under any circumstances whatever. As to my acting as referee in other fights, barring McAnliffe, I bhall be glad to act. That is. thoso lights that I want to referee, I will rof creo.
