Horsemen may look for a new record for mile trotting during the coming season, as Robert Bonner expects Mand 8. to establish a time for the distance that will stand unlowered fora long time. The celebrated mare is now being jogged daily over the covered private track of her owner at Tarrytown, N.Y.. and is keeping her muscles strong and elastic for a trial later on. Mr. Bonner drives her himself, the work be- ing confined entirely to “jogging,” with no attempt whatever at speeding even for a short @istance. The mare is hitched to a vehicle with pneumatic wheels for the first time, Mr. Bon- ner having adopted this innovation as soon as he perceived its beneficial influence. “Maud 8. would not be trained,” said be in an interview recently, “tif I did not think she could wipe out all records that have ever been made.

He Demolishes the Criticisms of the Sulli- wers. Champion Pugilist James J. Corbett has been criticised for bts course in insisting on a year’s rest before taking on another match for the world’s championship. Corbett has given out an interview in which he defends his position and which be concludes with a challenge to fight any one—Mitchell or Jackson. preferred — the fight to take place next fall for a purse, in reply to Pat Sheedy’s arguinent against the practice of fighting for large purses Cor- bett says: “If champion pugilists are going to contest for $10,000 purses and stakes all told, as the distinguished Mr. Sheedy suggests, who then is going to take the money that they will draw? According to figures published the night that Sullivan fought the receipts were nearly $90,- 000, the purse was $25,000 and the club cleared Close to $45,000 on the battle. “The profits of the Myer-McAuliffe contest were $90,000; Dixon and Skelly, $20,000; Maher Clab admits that it cleared $25,000 with the Dixon-Johnson match; $25,000 with the Choy. Godfrey, and £25,000 with Goddard and iaher. The fact that ‘the Crescent Club of New Orleans gives Fitzsimmons and Hall a £40,000 purse and has offered Mitchell and my- self n $55,000 purse proves that at present there | are fortunes being made by athletic clubs who are arranging boxing contests between cham- pions. Who is this money to go to if not to the pugiliste?” Corbett justifies bis course in asking ore year's rest between his battles, that Sullivan, although be held the championship twelve ars. fought onl¥ four men—Ryan, Mitchell, Kilrain and Corbett—an average of one battle every three years. KOBERTS WILL COME. “Lett From the Great English rdist. Frank Ives baa received a letter from John Roberts, jr., the English billiard champion, but it throws no light upon the proposed contest at the English style between him and Ives. Bob- erts states that he has been devoting the most of bis time playing exhibitions at the London Aquarium, and therefore has paid but little attention to practicing for the match. He is non-committal as to when, or whether at all, he will engage Ives in the game that is in a sense his own, and @ne which he should without any hesitation jump ata chance of playing with one to whom the game is supposed to be for- eign. ihe English champion writes, however, that he will pay this country a visit next May, and upon his arrival will be prepared to engage any man in America at pyramid pool for the cham- pionship.

For severagdays he was under the care of a physi- cian, but when he was uble to get out he went back to hie bad habits, and finally Mr. How- arth told him that he would have to move from 0. j his house when bis time was up, at the end of this month. About three weeks ago the unfortunate man borrowed a revolver from a friend and brought it home to his rooms, His wife did not want the weapon in her place and so she got Mrs. Howarth to keep it for her. This morning Mrs. Fitzgerald called upon Mra. Howarth and got the pistol, saying her husband intended to return it. She gave it to him and he went out. WE LEW OUT HIS BRAINS. Three hours later the deed was committed. He got off a Belt Line car and ean to the vesti- bule of the house mentioned, No. 1021, and blew out his brains without saying a word to any one. His last employment was as coachman for Congressman Taylor, who stopped at the Coch- ran. e ‘The dead man’s widow is left penniless. Her mother lives in Maryland, about thirty miles from this city. When searched 1 cent and a car ticket and several letters of recommendation were found in the dead man’s pockets. His body was removed to the second precinct station and from there to the morgue. Word was sent to the coroner, who will give a certificate of death in accordance with the facta.

Grade crossings within the city limits are a standing menace to life, limb and roperty. Beyond the limits of the town the nger is enhanced many fold, for the railroad feels that if it must reduce its «peed within the corporate limits it ie free to do as it pleases out- side of those limite, In our opinion a serious mistake will bemade if'a grade crossing is established at Ivy City. ‘The *Koyal Biue”’ and “forty-five minuie” pass | that point at a rate of speed varying trom thirty | to sixty miles an hour, |.

This falla back to Africa. It is in fact a lingering trace of the strong opposition to the change of the calendar, and the change made from the old ‘to the new style in 1752. When Pope Gregorius put out the new calender nine ds shad to be omitted in order to make the civil year correspond with the solar year. A recent reminder of this is the correction made in the date celebrated as the anniversary of the discovery of America. The English did not adopt the Gregorian calendar until about 200 years after its promulgation, So they bad to drop out two days more. Russia, which sticks to the Julian calendar, is now twelve days behind in her computation of time. In 1752 the English parliament dropped ont eleven days and the civil year was made to begin January 1, instead of March 25. The communists of’ that day pretended that this change in the calendar was an attempt on the part of the rich and learned to cheat the poor and ignorant out of eleven days! It was a long time, however, before even educated people became accustomed to the change. In a letter from Wm. Hooper, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, to James, Iredell, governor of North Carolina, lated February 12, 1784, Mr. Hooper speaks of having celebrated Gen. George Washington's birthday on the 11th. The present generation thinks of Washington's birthday as 22d. It was, according to the old style, 11th. THE MECHLENBURG DECLARATION. There was a Declaration of Independece, Charlotte, N. C., of which Te Sram has a copy, which was written and signed according to the Julian calendar May 20,1775. By the Grego- rian calendar it was May 81, 1775. ‘This con- flict of dates has caused later day critics to pretend to doubt the authenticity of ‘the North rolina Declaration of Independence. But a number of the descendants of the of the declaration live in Washington, and they have what is regarded as undoubted proofs of the genuineness of the document. One of fhese is Kobert A.

Satolli, in reply, referred to the pope's love for the American people, in evidence of which he cited hia own appaintment as perma- nent apostolic delegate to this country. He also thanked Bishop Keane for having afforded him facilities to make would accom- pected that Dr. McGlynn will return city the Intter part of the month, when it is stated that he will deliver a lecture here. He will taen come back to New York to settle up his affairs, and February 8 he expects to sail with Bishop Moore for Savannah. It is said Dr. McGlynn will go to Rome as soon as he had finished the Lenten course of lectures for Bishop Moore. Some of Dr. McGlynn’s friends are of the opinion that his expressed willingness to go to Rome will be regarded by the compli- ance with the order made that be ehould visit Rome and that the order will be suspended, AT THE UNIVERSITY. Dr. McGlynn’ spent today at the Catholic University. He was not visible to newspaper men and there were but few other callers, came on to see Mgr. Satolli and his time was with that prelate. He expected to leave for New York some time today, but the exact hour was not known. The conference between Dr. McGlynn and the representative of the Rope is of course the lending topic ‘tholice who have taken an interest in the late controversy. Some well-informed Catholics are of the opinion that now the pope will recall his order directing Dr. McGlynn to go to Rome. If such is the case the announcement will come from Rome.
