Jack Slc- Aullffc , the light weight champion pugilist of the world. m < H nnd ngaln defeated Jimmy Carroll , his old-time rival and thrca times his antagonist In the ring for that honor , tonight before St. George's club In a ten round bout , forever settling the rmtetlon of Buperlorlly btlwccn them. In all their bat tles previous to tonight , McAullffo has been the victor , though never without a bard fight. The last time the men met was In this city , March 21 , 1S90 , when McAullffe , who was all but out In the forty-seventh round , rallied under the clover handling of Jack Uempsoy and put Carroll nut , when < ho latter war fighting strong. AlU"jh Carroll has passed hlo fortieth year , ho Is a well preserved man and had trained long and faithfully for this , perhapn tils lost fight. It may be eald IIP. has been In training for years to defeat McAullffe and entered the ring tonight In prime condition , McAultffo has often shown a dislike to bard training , and although he came to the coast by water from New York for the purpose of training en route , ho arrived hero rather high In fleeh. Since arriving he ha put In some hard licks and he has taken off considerable flesh , yet his condition was not as good as Carroll's. Dcttlng on the fight was quite brisk , with McAullffo slightly favorite at odds of $9 to $10 , though considerable money changed hands at "even. " The expectation of a hard ami scientific fight between the stars and the additional attraction of a ten-round contest between iJal Hawkins , who recently fought a draw with John Cans In New York , and Joe Flnnlck , known to the sporting world as the "Arkansas Kid , " drew to Wood ward's pavilion a crowd of G.OOO people the extent of the seating capacity. Referee- George Green stopped the Ha.wklns-Fln- nick ( "The Arkansas Kid" ) bout In the middle of the second round and awarded the decision to Hawkins. It was too cue- _ Bided to be of Interest. Carroll appeared drat and was well re ceived , but judging by the enthusiastic re ception of McAulirfo. he Is still a favor/tc / with the patrons of boxing. Carroll looked as hard as wood and as brown as a berry. There was a noticeable absence of all su perfluous flesh about the waist and he looked flt to make the battle of his life. Jack's flesh was white and appeared to be noft. There was too much plumpness about the chest , arms and shoulders. Doth men exceeded the light weight limit. Carroll and McAullffc shook hands at 0:40 o'clock. MIXED IT FROM THE STAI'T. Round 1 Very little tlmo was wasted In flOillliiK for an ononlnc.

TODAY'S FOOT HAI.Ij MATCHES. Ynlc-1'rliicctcin mill Hnrvnril-I'cnn- xylviuiln Ton in * SI red tip. When the sun goes down tonight the national Interest In foot ball for the season of 1S)6 ) will be greatly decreased , ns the last two Important games of the year will have been decided. This afternoon Yale and Princeton , Harvard nnd Pennsylvania will occupy the gridiron , and In comparison all other contests In the country sink Into Inslgnltlrnnro. There Is nn Immense amount of speculation regarding the winners of these game.- * . Not one club of the whole rtuartet 1ms a cinch , and but Blight odds Imvo been offered In the rast. To show the comparative Mrnngth of the elevens , the scores In gnmcs that have been pluycd npaltiBt the same elevens by any two of the big quartet , may bo Interesting.

A glance Is sufficient to prove that It would be one of the most dllllcult things In the world to figure out anything like a falls- factory conclusion from the above figures. They furnish but llttlo opportunity for form ing an estimate of the r6al merits of the teams. If we take the contests of the bis teams with the Carlisle Indians. It looks as If Pennyslvanla has away the best of It. If we take the two games played by Prince ton and Pennsylvania npalnst Ix > hlgh. It also lookp as If the Quakers were better than the tlKors. OH the form shown by Harvard and Yale against Trinity the Dlues are far In the rear of the Crimsons , and the same may be said of their meetings with Wes- lovan. Out In the battle with Drown nnd Williams and Dartmouth. Yale runs far ahead of either Harvard or Pennsylvania. In the contest at West Point old 1311 Is Just as good as Princeton , although the military lailo scored two points against the Mines. It will thus ho soon how very dllllcult It Is to get anything like a correct line on the com- paratlvi1 strength of the four teams consid ered. Everybody a week ago thoupht the Tigers would simply oat up Harvard. But there was no oatlnc up , and there may bo moro surprises to be unbottled this after noon. Popular opinion , both here and In the east , la that the Tigers will have a snap with Yale , but popular opinion was In n like humor last year nt this tlmo. and Yale showed up like giants when the momentous hour arrived. It may be that history will repeat Itself. It often does. Almost all this season Yale has been playing nn In and out game ; hardly two games have shown similar form. One day she has shown up capitally , nnd the next like a lot of monkeys. The table above displays this. Dut It will bo noticed that any time Yale has played anything like foot ball It has had easy work with Its opponents , nnd the truth Is. It Is not without hope this afternoon. The rigid training- the team has undergone for the past ten days , may have put It on Its feet In the proper way , nnd a jrrand battle may be looked for nt Its hands. If Yale has Improved , as has been said. Its chances arc Just as good ns Princeton's. There Is no doubt but Prlncton has been playing the best foot ball. In fact , no team In the country has shown up much better at any time. It Is certain the Tigers have been at their best , but as much cannot be said of the teams It has met and walloped. It Is not rirobablc that Princeton will bo any hotter this afternoon than when It met Harvard , and this fact must not be lost slRht of. On public form , it should and will be the favorites In the betting. But betting on college foot ball games Is not ruled by any custom that controls the pro. fcsslonal betting rings. Sontlmont has much to do with the adherents of the big colleges In placing their coin. A Yale , Princeton , Harvard or Pennsylvania man " Is greatly swayed "by the love for his alma mater , and not very frequently will he refer to what the odds ought to bo on form. And that Is what makes a pie out of the college men for the professional sharks. As to the game between Pennsylvania and Harvard , Pennsy Is an odds-on favorite. Still a surprise may happen here. Harvard has worked hard during the past week , nnd eastern reports have her In the very highest kind of fettle , hut there Is that air of confidence about Pennsylvania that cannot bo overcome. Confidence Is a great factor In sports , nnd often begets victory where defeat should have fallen. In conclusion , n tip Is offered gratuitously Pcpnsylvanla and Princeton. NEW HAVEN. Conn. . Nov. 20.-There Is a most supreme confidence tonight among all the sono of Ell that the Tigers will bo laid low by Captain Murphy's eleven , on Manhattan Field tomorrow , and the o'e- ment of doubt has not boon i > ble to ret even nn entering weilge. Just before the olcven departed for New York. Dr. Joshua Hartwoll. the veteran coach , who has hith erto maintained a sphinx-like silence , ex pressed himself as very hopeful of winning. The Yale team went out to the field for the last time early In the afternoon. They did not line up , but simply went through the signals and practiced the formation plays which they expect to use against Princeton. The eleven , with the suhs , trainers nnd coaches , left late In the afternoon for New York , traveling- a special car. The de parture was the occasion for a ) : mnU ova tion. Captain Murphy ana every member of the eleven avas Individually given the famous long cheer , while the mention of John Hartwell's name brouirht forth a perfect whirlwind of cheers. The playera were escorted from the New Haven house to the train by over 1,0(0 students , who en livened the route by singing college soncs. There Is n general feeling here T6nlght the Yale eleven of ISM will prove to be one of the star teams In Yale's foot ball annals , PRINCETON , N. J. . Nov. 20. Princeton turned out In a body this [ Afternoon to Rive the Tigers a Bcndoff. Fully 2,000 people crowded to the little old-fashioned station nnd wildly cheered their departing foot bull heroes. Never before has such enthu siasm been evinced here. Over 00 students accompanied the eleven. The last practice of the eleven wan taken early this after noon and was of the lightest kind of train ing. Special attention was. paid to signal practice , to perfecting Uiun play nnd interference and punting. lialrd spent nearly an hour under the watchful eve of Aleck Moffntt. who put the young Tiger fullback through n course of punting and drop kicking , which may come In very opportunely when the Tigers meet the sons of Ell tomorrow afternoon. Every one of the players Is confident of victory by n score of nt least 12 to 0. PHILADELPHIA , Nov. 20. The Penn sylvania foot ball squad nnd conchers ar rived homo from the Delaware Water Gap at 6 o'clock tonight. The boys were given a hearty welcome by the intlumlaatlc stu dents. There was but llttlo handshaking- , however , Coach Woodruff nnd Captain Wharton hustling the men off to the trainIng - Ing house , where , after n light dinner , they dreHsed for the reception given In Houston hall In honor of the Harvard team. Th re ception was attended by about 500 co'llego foot hall enthusiasts. The musical clubs of the University of Pennsylvania contrib uted Instrumental and vocal muilc. nnd durlnh' the Hupper , which was served In the largo auditorium. Judge McMlchacl of the Harvard alumni Judge Wllnon , president of the Philadelphia Yale Alumni associa tion , nnd Samuel u. Hiirrlck , president of the Princeton Local Alumni association , made n short speech , urknowludglng- hospitality of Pennsylvania and einrcuslve of the hojHi that friendly rivalry between the colleges would grow. The crlmnon eleven upent nearly two houri on Franklin field this afternoon In light practice and familiarizing UicmsclvtH wl ; the grounds. NRAV YOHK. Nov ! SO.-Tho fool ball heroes of Ynlo nnd Princeton arrived In town tonight nnd proceeded without much ndo to tlH'lr reactive hotels. The \nlc men are at the Plaza hotel. The men were In good condition , but there was nn absence of the old-time snap and confidence that tued ( o characterize the Yale men when they made their headquarters farther down town , The Princeton players are at the Murray Hill hotel. The Princeton men were headed by their trnlnor. "Jack" McMnstcra. nnd after they had dined , left the hotel to visit the nearby theaters on orders to return not later thnn 9:10 : o'clock. There was quite a crowd of Princeton admirers at the Murray Hill , but they wore very quiet. The Im perial hotel appeared to be the chief betting center for the foot ball contingents of both sides. Early In the evening 10 to 7 was of fered on Princeton , iwlth few takers , but na thn Ynlo mon continued to arrive , there was u falling1 off nnd even money was the ruling llgure. The principal bet of the evening- the Imperial was by John nraham , n cotton br.oker. of the class of 'Sti. Princeton , of J-'CO even , with a Mr. Johnston. Dr. Haldwtn of Princeton ' 91 bet J50 to Ks ttint Yule would not score. There was also some betting nt the Murray hotel. Several small bets In sums of K to $23 were made. II. H. Talcon , formerly president of the Now York Huso Hall club , bet $100 to $73 on Princeton. He found no dlfilculty In placing bets nt this figure , nnd he also placed several at $100 to $70 on Princeton. He also made a bet of $10 to $100 thr.i Yale would not score.

Corbett. the pugilist , signed an agreement tonight , with Warren Lewis , president of the Greater Now York Athletic club , formerly the Coney Island Athletic club , to spar twenty rounds with Bob Fltzslmmons before the club on January 14 , for n purse of $26,000 , put up by Lewis. Lewis today received a reply to his message from Fltzslmmons. In which the latter asked for a week to consider Lewis' offer. Lewis and Colvlllc , both saw Corbett tonight , and both offered him the same , but as Colvlllc would not put up the guarantee , Ccrbett accepted Lewis' offer , and the latter will deposit $3.000 with Al Smith tomorrow. Under conditions both men must put up $2,500 with the club as a suarantce of their appearance , which will go to either in case the other duoes not appear. Corbett ex pressed himself ns satisfied with the ar rangements , and his decision"which he an nounced from the stage , was received with cheers by the audience. Colvllle , who did not get the fight , said he TOIS plad there was such a lirlcht outlook for a tight. The date. January 14 , was set rather hastily , last night by Lewis , and he will endeavor , after Fltzslmmons has signed , to have It changed to January 1. Fltzslmmons Is nlrcndy training for his Sharkey fight , and Corbett can get Into condition In two weeks. At the close of the performance tonight , Corbett sent a tele gram to Fltzslmmons , stating that twenty rounds would be a finish fifrht. and that talk of a finish light would spoil all. A message was ulso received from Julian , Fltzslmmons' matiHKer , demanding a championship battle to a finish , but "If such a light Is Impossi ble , then any old kind of a match will suit. " Lewis' desire for a change of date Is to enable the fight to be pulled off before the New York legislature can change the present law. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ fitinrilH AdnliiHt ItlllpN Todn } ' .

TMs game has been all the talk In local sporting- circles during the past week , nnd people who ex pect to see nn unscientific came of foot ball will bo disappointed , as both teams have had advantagn of splendid coaching and will undoubtedly put up a scientific game. The Rides' team Is much heavier thnn that of the Guards , but recent games show that "beef" nlono does not win. nnd the Guards expect to sprint away from their lees agllo opponents. A clean and hard-fought game Is expected , as otllclals who know their bus iness have been chosen , and will see. that rules are adhered to to the letter. The game will be called at 3.30 p. m.

LIFE IN A FRONTIER FORT Duties and Diversions of < tlnclo Sam's En listed Men,11 WHAT THE SOLDIERS 6EAJ AND DRINK The Typical Army 1'oat In the Inillnti Canntry.-Mlilwlntcr ln llic ur- rljion Drill * , Dlrtnorn nnil AiuiiHciucntn , Omaha friends or members' of the Secoivl Infantry , which has chanfecfl"places with the Twenty-second regiment.1 'bill flnd much to Interest them In the following sketch of soldier life In a genuine frontier garrison. It waa written by u correspondent of the Now York Sun from Fort Cuatrr. Mont : A soldier's life In an army fort on iho frontier In the Indian country Is not so easy and Indolent these days aa many east ern people Imagine. It Is a pleasant and somewhat exciting experience and for some soldiers It la a very happy life. For the last thirty years a military fort In the west , In the fullest sense of the word , Is realty no fort at all. It Is merely a collection of low , strong-hunt and homely buildings , houses arranged In any form most pleasing to the commanding officers. Some of the structures at the forte look as If they had been dropped down on the pralrlo hap hazard , the purpose being to have one mili tary station located EO far from another that mutual communication can be had In a day's ride with a horse. There Is not the least semblance of fortification about the frontier forts parapets , buttresses , bastions or can non projecting through embrasures. The- cost of all the buildings at a typical army fort out In this region Is usually not over $16,000. There arc some that would be dear at $8.000. The structures arc always arranged so that offlccro' quarters are sep arated from the barracks of the enlisted men and the parade or drill ground In a rectangle or square between the officers' quarters and the barracks , stables , guard house and hospital. The stars and stripes float from a pole In the middle of the parade ground. For skirmish drills , of which there arc many In modern military tactlcsf the prairie outside of the garrison limits , stretchIng - Ing away In all directions for hundreds of miles , Is chosen. Sometimes there may be a company of people In a frontier fort who please their aesthetic tastes by cultivating flower gardens within the garrison , and a few forts have native vines covering the wooden walls with blossoms and green foliage , but such features are not common. GAIUUSONS AND FORCES. Frontier forts are of various sizes. They run all the way from one-company posts to twelve or fourteen. There are In this fort twelve companies of Infantry and one troop of cavalry. Wherever there Is a military headquarters a regimental band Is stationed. A regiment of cavalry , under the present organization of the United States arm" , con sists of twelve compahles and a band. The officers nro one colonel , one lieutenant colonel , three majors , twelve captains , four teen first lieutenants , and ten second lieu tenants. The two extra first lieutenants In each organization the regimental adju tant and the quartermaster. The adjutant Is a sort of chief clerk of the concern. He does or manages all the clerical work , receives and answers all communications , for It would bo considered a. breach of etiquette to address a communication direct to the commanding officer. Everything should be done through the adjutant. The quarter master must bo a genuine ' . 'hustler" to keep pace with his business. Ho has an exceed ingly difficult position ( o fill acceptably , for that officer , as a ruleila. the most roundly abused of all In the .military service , and In nine cases out of ten the fault docs not llo at his door. A company organization Is ono captain , one first 'lieutenant , and one second lieutenant. Seldom-.ls It that a com pany Is completely offl'ccr.e'd. If the captain bo present , he will command In person , but his lieutenants are detached , for one thing or another they are away from the post on special duty at college's Qr at West Point , recruiting service , trom. ' sickness , a vacancy In the company , or f torn a. hundred other causes ; or , If present at the post , they are temporarily detached , especially to perform such duties as those of post adjutants , post quartermasters , post commissioners , Instruc tors of rifle practice , ordnance officers , provost vest marshals , or they are off In the field surveying , escorting postmasters , chasing Indians , and the like. The duties of all. offi cers and soldiers are calculated to teach any tenderfoot on short notice that the military servants of Undo Sam away out hero on the frontier completely and thoroughly earn every cent they get by the grace of congress. GLORIES OF SUMMER. In summer It is pretty plain sailing , al though at some of the forts distributed along the Missouri river It Is not safe or comfortable for the soldier , or officer either. to attempt to do guard duty or other work at the height of the warm season unless protected by head nets and cast-Iron gloves , on account of the ways of the mosquitoes. These Insects are prepared for business In this latitude. They come In swarms , and are so numerous and persistent that It Is not exaggeration to Bay that life la positively a burden for a ( ew weeks of each year. Mules , horses and cattle all suffer terribly from these pests , while man would also flnd existence next to unbear able should he not be able to provide him self with adequate protection In the way of head nets and long-armed gauntlets. In summer the Inmates of the fort have had the temperature as high as 123 degrees Fahrenheit 'In the shade. In January and February the mercury at this 'point has sometimes sunk to the awful temperature of 45 degrees below zero. Putting the two together we get a range of 16S degrees as the dlflerenco between the extremes , which Is hard for any other spot on the known globe to equal. In the winter the 'snow may reach on a level In the northwest anywhere from six Inches to four and flvo feet. The average , nowever. is not much moro than fourteen Inches all around : but even this depth on a level , unbroken stretch of pralrlo makes campaigning on foot not the pleasahtest occupation one could find. When the winds blow and the blizzards fly and the snow begins to pile up , then It is time to seek shelter and not bo found wan dering over the open prairie without com pass or landmark. Even the Indians , under such climatic conditions , stick close to their uncomfortable tepees and lodges , preferring rather to bo at peace with all the world then than to enjoy unlimited freedom In the open air under the doubtful protection of a breech-clout and a well-ventilated blanket. LIFE IN WINTER. In garrison during midwinter soldiers and men manage to malto life bearable In more' ways than one. Reveille Is sounded epme hours before daylight ' during the cold months , ana with tnc rjret sound of too huglo the soldier must , tie , ' out of bed and slipping Into his troustra.Svlth all dispatch. At the assembly , about ' .ten minutes later , the companies fall In On their respective parade grounds , roll is called and the result reported by the first sergeant to the officer of the day , who Is standing In the center of the parade ready ! lo..receive It. With cavalry" , stable call U blown Immediately after reveille , when th'o trpoper proceeds to ' give his s'tecd a llttlp attention and oats before taking breakfast himself. Fatigue call Is sounded at about JT:3U : o'clock , when those not on other duty are detailed to per form any work required about the garrison , and guard mounting Is a , { 9 o'clock. This is tbo beginning of ttic official day , which lasts Just twenty-four hours. The old guard Is relieved , a new guard marches on , a new officer of the day relieves the old one , and both officers , at the * conclusion of the ceremony , report to the commanding officer In his office for orders. The guard Is divided Into three reliefs flrst , second , and third. Each man has two hours on post and four houra off. For Instance , sunpcso there are three posts to walk , Just as there are here. No. 1 is at the guardmaster's storehouses , No. 2 at the commissary and quartermaster's storehouses , and No. 3 at the haystacks. The cavalry take care of their own stock and guard their own stables. Tbo first relief ( conilitlng of as many sentinels aa there are posts to guard ) goes on duty at 9 o'clock and cornea off at 11. Second relief la on peat from 11 to 1 , and the third relief from 1 to 3. Dy this time tbo flrit relief-has liad four hours' rest , be ing succeeded at 5 o'clock by the second relief , who has been taking It cany for tbo last four houra. In this manner the duty U fairly equalized , givlne each , man of the gimrd right hours on post and nlxtrcn hours rest. The tour of guard duty here comra to each enlisted man about once In every alx days , or from four to five time * A month. Those not on guard duty have other things to look after , Drill call Is sounded at 0:30 : o'clock , promptly nnd precisely , according to order , no matter If U be raining pitchforks or blowIng - Ing howitzers at the time. The pleasant pastime of drill Is kept up , within doom , for sixty minutes. Of course , no movements can bo performed In the limited space of the equad room ; simply the manual of arms , bayonet drill , and the like receive the strictest attention from all hand * . A com * mlcslonod officer Is the Instructor at drills. Retreat call Is at sunset , tattoo about S:30 : o'clock , and taps to extinguish the lights about fifteen minutes later. THEY FARE WELL. Let no one bo deluded with the Idea that Unclb Sam's soldiers dine from cheap , sub stantial fare only , In thcic piping times of pence. It may bo different In nctlvo war fare. Wo all recall the old laying of the days of the rebellion , to the effect that the menu In army life was "pork , hardtack and coffee for breakfast , " "hardtack , pork and coffee for dinner , " nnd for a change supper consisted of "coffee , pork and hardtack. " Hut how untrue this Is today. Anyhow , llttlo foundation there Is for the old Jingle which the men of the old army set to "mess call : " 'Tork , porky , porky , without n strip of lean ; Soiit ) , soupy , soupy , without n single bean ; CorTce , coffee , coffee , the meanest ever seen. " At every army fort on the frontier the diet Is practically the same. The cooking Is done by enlisted men , who have shown expertness In the art. Occasionally a cook Is hired to teach the soldiers new wrinkles In culinary devices. Nowadays the regula tion ration at the garrison for enlisted men Is about as follows : Twelve ounces of porker or bacon or canned beef ( rresh or cured ) , or one pound and four ounces of fresh beef , or twenty-two ounces of salt beef ; eighteen ounces of soft bread or Hour , or sixteen ounces of hard bread or one pound and four ounces of corn meal , and to every 100 ra tions fifteen pounds of beans or peas , or ten pounds of rice or hominy , ten pounds of green coffee or eight of roasted coffee , or two pounds of tea , fifteen pounds of sugar , four quarts of vinegar , tour pounds of salt , four ounces of pepper , and to troops In the field , when necessary , four pounds of yeast powder to every 100 rations. The number of men being known , sufficient rations to last ten days are drawn from the com missary department and turned Into the mess. Fresh meat Is delivered by contract dally whenever It Is possible , while the bread Is baked by soldier bakers In the post bakery. In addition to the food supplied In the ration , many extras are purchased by means of funds furnished by the post exchange. This exchange Is the successor of the old army cutler , who rapidly became rich from the profits on goods sold to the men. A few years ago the sutler system was broken up and the government now runs Its own stores In the Interest of the enlisted men. Only a small profit Is made and this profit Is used to buy n better and more varied sup ply of food for the men. There Is a post exchange at most forts. The following articles , bought at a post exchange In two months , will give an Idea of what the soldier boys have In the way of extra diet : Six hundred and fifty pounds of bologna sausage. 500 pounds of cheese , 225 pounds of breakfast bacon , 400 pounds of fresh sausage. 700 pounds of mutton and 300 pounds of liver. There Is consumed at a dinner In an average army garrison , 50 gallons of soup , 250 pounds of roast beef. 7 bushels of potatoes , 2 barrels of turnips , 24 gallons of tomatoes , 1 barrel of cold slaw , 30 pounds of tapioca for pudding and ICO pounds of bread. From ono to two barrels of sirup are eaten at an avenge frontier garrison in a month and the average number of pounds of sugar used dally Is forty-three. The following Is a sample of the menus at the three meals each day In winter at a United States garrison In the western wilds : . Breakfast Cracked wheat with sugar , beef hash , bread , butter , sirup and coffee. Dinner Roast pork and gravy , roast po tatoes , succotash of lima beans and green corn , beets , tapioca pudding , bread , sirup and coffee. Supper Meat and gravy , fried potatoes , hash , pudding , bread , sirup and tea. Every man can have Just as much as he desires , provided ho does not waste by leaving much food on his plate. This waste Is not permitted and men are punished for "wasting. On holidays an extra dinner Is served. The dinner last Christmas day was as follows : Roast turkey , cranberry sauce , celery , mashed potatoes , baked sweet po tatoes , pickles and cold slaw , mince and pumpkin pie. pound cake. Jelly cake , apples , raisins , coffee , cheese , bread and butter which for a good meal compares most fa vorably with a holiday dinner at some of the best hotels In the land. AMUSEMENTS. For amusements the officers have a club room , and so have the soldiers , too. for that matter. The post trader supplies the luxuries , and In return has the monoply of what trade there Is In It. At the billiard or pool tables of some of our frontier posts may be seen men who are truly experts with the cue. The band at headquarters forts Is for the benefit of officers and en listed men alike. Light wines , beer and elder are sold at almost cost prices , but whisky Is not allowed under any pretense to be within the limits of the garrison. After many years' service In some particular regiment , the soldier has the esprit du corps , and ho takes a certain pride In his profes sion and what he Is about. The bands of the military service , with hardly an ex ception , are fine bodies of musicians , and capable of holding their own against all comers. In or out of the army. At an Isolated post this luxury Is most thoroughly appreciated. Hops , concerts , dances , card parties , dinners , theatricals and various other amusements are the order , when they are cut off from the outside world and the rest of civilization by the Icy fetters of winter. A visitor at the post Is made much of. Ho or she Is dined , feted and danced. In summer the guest is driven or ridden. ncros.3 the country to the Indian camp , over the bluffs , or along the river bank , back and forth , here end there and everywhere , to his or her heart's content. In winter , on bobs and behind a merry set of jingling sleigh hells , away he goes spinning over the prairie , In and out among the sage brush , getting as much enjoyment out of the square Inch as the air , country , and sur roundings are capable of offering. This Is a pheasant picture to contemplate , but all these llttlo diversions are dearly bought , by Isolation in a wild , partly settled country , without theaters , operas , shopping , or any of the ordinary enjoyments that people con sider a part and parcel of their existence. FAIR WEATHER DUTIES. In fair weather great attention Is given to target practice. There was a time when the average soldier of the line could not hit a fleck of barns , although be might have been armed with a double-barreled repeatIng - Ing shotgun. It used to be said , too , that during the late war a man with a gun would bavo to shoot away his own weight In lead before he could hit anybody. All that Is changed now. It would surprise people to know to what degree of fine marksmanship tbo soldier has been brcugbt by the most excellent system of rifle Instruction now In vogue. At flrst distances , or rather with single shots at an object , the soldiers of our line can more than hold their own against the line of any other army on earth today. European armies neglect marksmanship as an Important adjunct of a soldier's life. Hut the tendency of modern warfare Is to light no longer In solid brigade , with Intervals of from one to flvo yards between Individuals , and backed up by artillery. Were the late war to be fought over , with all the late Improvements , there would be no four or flvo years of long drawn out con flict. The unpleasantness would bo settled In lew than ft twelvemonth. A sklrmUh llnu of any of our regiments toJay would do twenty time * the execution of a similar line of twenty-five years ngo. The rpMon I * that the soldier la taught as his flrst duty how to handle and get the moit out of hie piece. A vllt to any ono of the annual rlflo com * petition * held at various points throughout the United States would convince the most skeptical , beyond all question or doubt , that Uncle Ram's troops are now an array of marksmen and sharpshooters. Instead of A mob of raw , undisciplined recruits. There Is ono drill practice by a cavalry troop at several frontier posts which Is not only useful and Instructive , nut also de cidedly Interesting to witness. Out on the prairie have been erected numerous posts the height of AH ordinary man from hlft fee * up to his shoulders. A number of largo leathern balls , the size ot n man's hc.nl , ami filled with straw , tro placed on the posts before drill commences. Now the troopers are hauled up In line and each Individual U set to work cutting off the various leathern heads from tbo posts. When a man's turn come * ho drawn his saber , the command Is given and away ho goes at a mad dash down upon the enemy , cutting oft the first head with a down stroke , the next one with n back sweep and the third Is slashed on the crown or decapitated In gome way. Of courseIt Is ridiculous to see the recruits flrst practice these manoeuvers , but the raw-boned fellow becomes an expert after awhile nnd his laugh Is turned on others who succeed him as the butt of ridi cule. The drill also Includes firing blank charges with a revolver at the heads , the sharp concussion of the explosion generally blowing the leather heads off , If the aim Is good. The bump of fun Is an exceedingly large one In the average soldier of the line. Young men In the prime of manhood , of flne physique and generally perfect In every way , look on the term of enlistment as a sort of task and propose to get as much niu'i-ic- ment tnd fun out of the flvo years as pos sible. Their devices and trlcka for getting out of drill and other duties are of various description. Whisky Is the soldier's weak ness. Should a post be 1,000 miles from civilization nnd stringent orders be In force forbidding liquor on the reservation , with every possible means taken to prevent Its Introduction and use , still the average soldier will , In some way or other , have his toddy In spite of every obstacle. He's bound to get It In some way. The greatest trial of the officer of the day Is to keep whisky away from the prisoners and out of the guard house , but It Is Impossible of ac complishment , for they certainly gut It In some manner and whenever they want It. Whisky has been discovered being smuggled Inside of loaves of bread when food was brought to the prisoners. A sentry might fill the barrel of his musket with liquor and walk his post smelling awfully like rum , but never bo found out. Prisoners returning from work under charge of the guard , carryIng - Ing stable brooms over their shoulders , have had a flask or two concealed In the bulky part of the broom and yet escaped dis covery. KMGIIT.S OK 1.AltOR KOJl SILVER. GeinTiil Asipiulily Deelnro * for IlryimV Pet Dnelrliie. ROCHESTER. N. Y. , Nov. 20. The gen eral assembly of the Knights of Labor de clared today for free silver. The action taken was In the adoption of an additional clause to the seventeenth plank or the dec larations submitted by the committee on law. As originally framed this plank held that Interest-bearing bonds , bills of credit or notes should never be Issued by the gov ernment , but that when need arises the emergency should be met by the Issue of legal tender iionlnterest-bcarlng money. To this was added the following : "And that gold and silver when so Issued shall bo of free and unlimited coinage at the ratio of 1C to 1 , regardless of the action of anr other nation. " The general assembly voted down the proposition to reduce the ratio of represen tation of district , state and national assem blies. A new proposition granting repre sentation to Isolated local assemblies at tached directly to the general assembly on a basis of a delegate for the first 1,000 members and one for each additional l.OOU or major fraction thereof was adopted , which gives representation to between 50- 000 and 60,000 members who are cot now entitled to representation. A resolution was adopted that the general assembly announce the attempt soon to be made to take from the government of the people the sovereign right to Issue money and leaving It entirely under the control of the national banks , and calls upon the people ple everywhere to watch their representa tives In congress and demand from them such legislation as will continue the Issuance of government money in preference to money of all banks or corporations. ST. LOUIS. Mo. . Nov. 20. At today's ses sion of the Illlnoln Federation of Labor at East St. Louis a resolution presented by II H. Huff of Chicago , which had been In the hands of tbo resolutions committee- since Wednesday , was adopted by a vote of 37 to 10 , ( is follows : "Whereas , The free coinage of sliver was Indorsed by our supreme body , the American Federation of Labcr , at Its district conven tions , therefore , be It "Resolved , That this body hereby Indorses the resolution In regard to the free and un limited coinage- sliver at the ratio of 1C to 1 , as passed by the American Federation of Labor Chicago . in December. 1S93 , In Denver In December. 1894 , and In New York in December , 1895. " Several delegates who voted In the nega tive said they did so , not because they were opposed to the text of the resolution , but because they considered It Injudicious to place the organization on record. The annual election of officers resulted In the selection of the following : President , Charloa J. Rleller of Springfield ; vice presi dent , Jacob Tazelear of Chicago ; secretary and treasurer , Walter S. Bush of Peorla ; ex. ecutlvo committee , Carl Hanson of Chicago , A. II. Austin of East St. Louis , John Tay lor of Glen Carbon , John R. Holmes of Springfield , Herman Llbblng of Qulncy , Millard - lard Lloyd of Hloomlngton and John D. Potter of Peorla.

Mil. , Nov. 10. The Sun' special correspondent In Home has Inter viewed Cardinal Satolll In relation to tha reports published In this country concernIng - Ing Cardinal Gibbons , Archbishop Ireland and others. Ho writes of the matter as fol lows : "I then drew hlc attention to the reports and rumors which had been nude about him Immediately after lll.shou Kcar.o'f resigna tion of the rectorship ot the Washington university , and of the part that he la said to have played In It. Ills attention was also directed to the change that Was said to have somewhat suddenly come about lit his attitude toward certain members of the hierarchy , The various phases and the full details of these rumors , which arc so well known to those who have followed the polemics that arose on this question In the United States during the last few weeks , were evidently quite unknown to him. The clippings which I had made of them from American Journals , appearing between the Cth and 12th of October , were then pre sented to him for the flrst time. After glancing rapidly over the headings , he said : " 'You may say that , having seen the cardinal ( Satolll ) and having spoken to him ot these reports , which have appeared In the newspapers concerning the mailers to which you have Just- drawn his attention , ho says solemnly that they are- wholly devoid of foundation. Such as he has been hereto fore , such he Is and shall continue to be , In respect to the United States. As representa tive of the holy Father , he has striven to rise , and considers he has succeeded In rising above all differences and person alities. " "And then forgetting for a moment the formal method of utterance which he hail been employing , he spoke In the first person singular , saying the following words : " 'I have striven on every occasion for the peace and the common weal of the church and the country. Loyalty to the Church and the Country , which Is the title of my book , has ever been my motto. " ' . XKW ItliCTOIt IS XAMHIJ AT LAST. Poiip Ieo AiMiulntN n Snet'CMMor to HALTIMORE. Md. , Nov. 20.

Conaty , D.D. , was seen by a representa tive of the Associated press soon after the news of his appointment wan received In the city. In fact the dispatch was , ho said , the most direct and authentic news ho had received about the matter. However , In view of the fact that no official notification of his appointment had yet reached him , Dr. Conaty said he did not care to discuss the subject aside from declaring that he Is grate ful for the expressions of confidence received and has been sensible of the trust Imposed In him since the day his name was first mentioned In connection with the office. WASHINGTON. Nov. 30. No Information lias been received cither at the Catholic university or the papal legation In { his city concerning the statement that Dr. Conaty had been appointed rector of tha university. It was stated nt the legation , however , that there was no reason to doubt the authenticity of the report. If the sub ject came before the propaganda , which no doubt It would , action would be taken Thursday , as the propaganda meets Thurs day. It was ulso stated that there was no reason to expect an announcement of the appointment by cable to the legation. Children are told that angels bring little ba bies straight from heaven.
