1 The Society Killtor's Outing.
The Society Editor has returned from a
ten day's outing in the wilds of northern
Wisconsin. With true swell instinct ,
"Blrdlo" that's what the boys about the
'shop ' call him hired a guide , a Fmlandor ,
nt.tho hamlet of Amborg , and boldly pushed
into the lonobrlnus pineries with nothing but
, n bamboo rod to defend himself with. The
guide could only talk a lit.tlo Finland , and
nirdlo a llttlo United States , but In their
mutual endeavor to find out what the other
ono said , they had a most rapturous tlruo.
The first night out tnoy camped on a small
tributary of the Mlsaconne , nnd In the silent
Watches their Rozlnanto became frightyiiod at
u predatory bear and juuiocd' the country ,
compelling tno society scrlbo and his Fin-
Ihn'JIsh ' slave to hoof it cross country to the
' ' Mlsaconne. By dint of industry , however ,
tboy arrived ut their destination Into the
next afternoon , n small lake Into which the
L MUaconno dooouchcs. Whlto man's foot
. .had seldom trod In these solemn aud prlml-
Itivo precincts , nnd after a short rest , tbo S.
K. christened the lovely hflo sheet of crys
tal liquid "Swagger Lakelet , " nnd ho and
his , scrvantimmedlately began to barrel their
trout ! .
In describing the spot 10 the gang lu the
sporting editor's ofilce , Birdie exclaimed :
"Swagcor Lakelet I Yo immortal gods ,
i What a plcturo of ravishing onchant-
luuiitl What wouldn't I give up if I could
unly giva you an Idea ot its fetching sweot-
nosst Not a fragment of cloud lloating in
the cerulean empyrean but found in Its doll-
cute tcxturo an licinedlato imago. Tints not
'detectable In tbo air Kindled Its surface , and
thus ovary moment Its appearance changed.
Kow it 'smiled In tonderesi nzuro , then a
faint breath from too diirlcunln ? woodB
lighted upon It and n gloun of silver rlpplo
cutntbwart ; next some impalpable shade
turned it into purple , again a dull gray , then
' Jlltllng with darks and lights , settling Into
Hottest qulot and divlncst hues , beamy , vel
vety , ouo broad glitter of magio tints.
Avauntlwlth iho'dnubery of Dommlchino ,
Gorroglo or Titian I Swagger Lakelet Is the
chief a'cauvro of the Master's hand 1"
"What you glvin' us I" Interrupted the
.ti'JHco reporter , "d'yo 'spose we're a lot o'
guys wbats goln1 to swaller datstultl"
'But Its on the dead , " pleaded Birdie ,
"and It you could only have vlowou the ex-
tiUlsllo "
' Whut'yo hoar bout Sullivan up there ,
Bonnyl" the sporting editor Interjected , nnd
with a IOOK of buporhitlvu pain , mingled with
equal quantities of disgust and pltv , Birdlo
folded up bin book of flies and hurried out of
the room.

George R. Clark of Chicago , backer of
Johnny Van Hocst , writes to the Pollco
News August 7 , in reply to the proposition of
Sol Smith to fight Van Hoost nl the Cali
fornia Atblotlo club for a $3,500 purse nnd
wnger 82,500 with Mr. Clark that Smith
would win. Vice Provident A. Valentino , In
botmlf of the California club , offered the
$ i.500 purso. Mr. Clark answers ns follows :
"I would not think of going to San Fran
cisco fur n parse of lo than $5,000 , as I have
stated. Should Vim Hoest win It would
mean no money for him nftorwnrds on the
road. I have no ono In San Frannlscn whom
I could trust to train my man , nnd I could
not go there myself. I vant Uoorgo Dlxon
or no ono as an nntticouUt lor Van lluost.
As the public well knows If Van Heest can
dofont Dlxon ho can make easy monov on the
roaa. Van Ilcest will have to como next
with Dlxon. The Olympic club made a
great mistake In taking Jack Skolly. I do
not know what men wore thinkmir of to giva
$7,500 for a man who never bad a finish fight
nnd to take him in preference to Van Ilo&st ,
who has to his credit IIfly-two fights with no
defeat. Van Hocst acainsl Dixon would
have given the Olympics n bnttlo which
would have boon worth the pnoo they charge
for it , and , \vhoovor won , ovorv spectator
would have been satisfied. All the Chicago
sporting w.riters regard the putting of Skolly
against Dlxon with amiuoment. "
Tommy Ryan has as yet made no match ,
