An elaborate eulogy of tho tug-of.war ap
peared in a recent issno of a morning paper.
Yet the writer of it, of course unwittingly,
really argues against it. Tor ho says, directly,
that the chlof hem fit of tho tug-of.war is tho
preliminary gymnasium training. Ho says:

according to the tug-of-war'a own defender, it
is not tho tug-of-war which gives health and

f'Al Cridge has consented to act as stakeholder
of tho tun. ono stakos in the Uulliran-Kilrain
match: Ho has given his word to that cllect.
This decision of his is an eminently satisfactory
ono to all concerned.
e
In speaking of Mr. Cridge as stakeholder,
Frank Ktoveiiaon aaysi " 1 do not know him
personally, but I do know him to be a peifectly
hotu-xt mau and a fair one. All Kilralu is look
ing for Jubticc." Ilegarding th same gentle
man, Jimmy Wakely says: "Ciidgeis lust the
lunti for the position. I was delighted when ho
told mo he would servo as stakeholder. All
Hullivan wants is fair play." Thcro seems to bo
a remarkable unanimity of opinion as to Mr.
Cridge on the part of the two big fellows' re
spective friends,
Ono gentleman at tho memorable meeting at
tho CKvin-r office, and whoe Judgment is en
titled to tho highest consideration, makes the
following commentary on Sullivan's condition:
"I noticed that his colpr was not hoalthy-look-ing,
lira that his neck was far thinner than it
used to be, and that he sagged from sido to side
whou walking, just as a man does whose kidneys
hurt him. I don't think Hullivan woighs within
forty pounds as much as he did when he met
Paddy Ityan." f 4
The offer of a ip, 000 purse by the, Southern
California, Athletic, Club to thowinncrr of tho
Htillivan-Kllrajn tight, if the great pugilists wiU
fight at their Club instead of near New Orleans,
has created quito a little stir. There seems to
be no doubt but that tho offer will be refused.
But this would make tho winner's total $30,000
an unheard-of sum in pugilistic annals.

has fought Johnny Murphy at the prhatuclub
in Boston a match will be liiado between

The Hombaokcr Athletic Club, by tho way,
has thrived very well indeed since its Inception
somo seven months ago. It numbers, besides
Eugcno Hornbacker, some notable athletes
within its ranks. Among them are tho follow

will be remembered wrestled a forty-mlnutu

House. Tho match between tho two wrestlers
will probably occur some time this month.
The Hornbacker Club gives a sparring exhibi

varied and interesting. About thirty of the
members will spar ana wrestle, betides some
first-class outside talent.
Tho ennual gymnastic contest, held last night
ot tho Young Men's Institute Hall, more than
met tho roslcst-hucd expectations. The atten

ERNEST STERNER'S EXPERIENCE WITH AN
AUGUST MANAGER.
Dr. Houghton' Ileqarst for Ihe Closing ef

to President Harrison on Centennlul
The woes of young actors who attempt to
beard metropolitan managers in their dens Iisto
been often told. They have rarely been exag
gerated. Tho young lactor who ventures to so
ouro an opening for himself needs all tho nerve
and brazen self-assertion ho can muster. A
short tlmo ago a young actor named Ernost
Hternci, who has done good work iu tho "May
Blossom " company, determined to approach tho
great Augustin Daly, and soo if ho could, not nb
tnlu some sort of a position in that gentleman's
organization. An interview was arranged. Mr.
Htcrner felt slightly jubilant: at any rato ho
would hare a hearing. Ho found tho austere
adapter in his private office and w alked iu. Mr.
Daly did not say anything; neither did tho
young actor. Tho silence became oppresshe.and
Mr. Sterner at length spoke.
"My name is Stonier," said tho young man.
"H'm," quoth the adapter, greatly edified.
"William:"
"No. Ernest."
"Ernest J" queried ilr. Daly. "Not Will
lain "
"Ernest." remarked Mr. FUerner. who began
to think it possible that Mr. Daly know bis namo
better than ho did,
" Well," said tho adapter, looking up and sur
veying tho young man leisurely from tho crown
of his head to tho solo of his foot, " don't you
think you have rather mistakeu your vocation 1
Do you imagine yon can act :"
" Ves "very feebly.
" You aro too small," continued tho adapter,
cnntcmutuoui'ly. "Not nearly big enough for
my stage. But." affably, "look in again some
day."
" I'am as big as Mr. .Tames Lewis, of your
company," declared Htcrner angrily, " and as
lor mistaking my vocation, do ou think It is
exactly courteous for a mannger who is supposed
to be at tho head of tho profession to tieat an
applicant of whom ho knows nothing in such a
way 1 1 am much obliged to you. Uood-uiorn-ing."
.
Mtill ho did not despair. Even after this chill
iug interview Mr. Sterner thought ho would try
again, He requested another interview. A timo
waa appointed. Ou this occasion, however, be
wascoiifrontcdby Mr. Daly's Hibernian facto
tum, Dick Doruey. This, according toMr.Stcrnsr
is all that occuned: Doruoy looked at him with
tho supercilious graco of tho "governor " and
remarked, simply hut airllv: " We only cngago
colored poople for ushers. "
Maro Klaw, Miss Davenport's manager, is very
delighted at tho result of his star's engagement
with "La Tosca" in Chicago. A discussion
was raised upon the realism of tho stage, with
special reference to Bardou, of course. It proved
moat Tortunate. Miss Davenport's businoss was
enormoua. .She will play nothing but "La
Tosca '' next season.
Little Miss Foley Is going to play from June 4
to Aug. 10 at the Soldiers' Home in Dayton, O.
Thisis what iscalled-a "Hummer snap." Hho
will only have to appear twico a week. "There
are such nico. rich old veterans there," declared
Miss Foley yesterday. "I may marry one of
them, you know. There aro immouao possibll
ites. Delighted at this snap ? Well, I should
say so. My rooms arc now full of dressmakers.
I am going to mako myself beautiful for the dear
old tilings." -
What kind of a house did yon lisvo at the
last performance of 'An Iron Creed?'" Miss
Foley w as asked.
"Oh." quoth sho, "the houso was big
enough, but thcro was nobody In it."
Miss Marion Manola will appear in four dis
tinct impersonations in "Clover," tho opera
that is announced to follow ' Tho May Queen "
at Palmer's. Miss Manola's contract with Col.
MfiCapU expires May 1, but it has been renewed
for the Summer. Tho Colonel cannot afford to
lose her.
Tho Tier. Dr. Houghton's reqnest that the
Academy of Musio should bo cloied on Good
Friday rathor incensed Manager Aloxander
Comafock. " Why should Dr. liomiliton inter
fere t" asked tho young manager. ' ' Wnat does
he do for actors but bury them. Tho trouble is
that he doesn't bury enough of them. If he will
mako a contract to inter 3,000 actors in three
weeks wo'll oloso the Academy during that
time. "
"I would like Mr. Ocrry to know that the

that he was merely obliging bin friends and
that it wouldn't do for them to trent him as
a flat too often. On hia marriage with Louie
Joyco ho did what he had agreed to: ho paid
Will Joyco'a debts, which, according to that
young gentlemau'H own showing, amounted
to G,000, but he gave Will to understand
that he mustn't nrosume upon tho relation
ship to ask any further assistance.
Louie Joyce was perfectly woll aware of
the sum which her brother wax to rocotve,

perhaps the sum would satisfy them, but

could hardly bring herself to believe it,

found her husband was being attacked
through her, she would Imform him of his
danger. Bhe had persuaded neraelf when
she married Dashton that the honestly
loved him, and as time went on, and she
found out her husband's good qualities, lore
really did come. Itwax the one great hope
of her life that her influence would at lost
