How Arthur 'Brisbane One Scored a,
Big Beat For Ms Paper.
"The layman who is unacquainted with
newapaper Metitoas may be interested in
knowing just how one goes about making
a piece of news," says Allen Sangree in
Ainslee's "'rife best _illustra-
tion of this,- perhaps, is Arthur Brisbane's
arrangement foe John L. Sullivan to box
before the Prince of Wales. At this time
Mr. Brisbane was Lenders correapondent
for the New York Sun...It should be un-
derstood that the competition among the
London representatives is just as keen as
though they were serving their separate
papers -On Park eon's and, though Haring
in an atmosphere of lets _aggressive jour-
nalism, they never for e moment -forget
their American education. In.thia matter
Mr. Brisbane was actuated by no other
motive than to triumph over his rivals •
• with a legitimate beat; and be .found the
great American bruiser but too glad. to
second the idea On the percentage of free
advertisernent. The Sue man worked
quietly, quickly and so snccessfully that
the night for the performance name with-
out .any one knowing of it excepting the
_Prince, his friends and the members. oi
the . fashionable .club thatEiieltered the
twelve foot ring. -
•"At the moment when the referee step-
ped out to announce the fighters the
prince's equerry discovered that there
• was present an untitled person, and, what
Was more deplorable, a newspaper man.
As the result of this discovery Mr. Bris-
bane was ordered to leave 'the club in-
stantly.
he objected, 'I tun responsible
for the whole thing... You are not going
to put me out?' ••
'The equerry would not hear him, and
Mr. Brisbane, desperate and engry,.play-
ed his last card. 'Well, John;' he said,
turning to where the champion stood toy -
ilia with one huge pickled paw, -Tye got
• to go. What'll .you do?'
" 'That's -wbat I'll dor replied the
champion of the world, Picking up his
mat and glaring savagely at the equerry.
'If that young feller goes, then I'll go,
understan'?' And the audience was dis-
mayed to -see the -fighter and reporter
abandon the ringside. It would not do,
however, to disappoint his royal highness
so disgracefully, and the equerry and
Mr. Brisbane filially compromised by the
latter promising toaarite the account only
for the American press. Thee5un of
coupe had a great beat next day, and ev-
ery newspaper in America ,end 'England
quoted -the anecdote of John L. Sullivan's
reception by Albert Edward.
"Mr. Sullivan's speech at that period
had extreme limitations, and when intro-
duced to -a distinguished person he inva-
riably used the same set phrase. To the
Prince of Wales, after shaking hands, he
-observed with dignity and ebeerfulness:
'Prince, I'm glad to meet you. I've often
heard of you.'"

"There's- ail sorts of wive of making a
living, and PTO Seen; neray queen things
in thitalie" said an nanehe of the coun-
ty hospital, "but the strangest of all is
that of being a 'fake relative.' Don't
know what that is, hey? Well, Oeither

graft ail the:same, end- it gets the money.
'"We • are continually receiving at the
morgue here • the bodies of unidentified
men and women. Death is frequently the
result of suicide or accident. In either
-cese the newspnpers print a pretty fair
description of the remains, which is fur-
nished by, the morgue authorities in the
hope that it will bring. in some relative
to identify the body and thus save the
county expense.
¶`Then the 'fake relatives' get in their
work. There is a lot of these harpies,
but it is Field= they interfere with one
another. They seem to recognize the
right of pre-emption, and the first one on
the scene is usually loft free to work the
claim. •The 'fake relative' has studied the
newspaper -description so well that he
can -give a Feationably good word picture
of the appearanee of the deed person,
ile asserts that .the body is that of a
cousin or something of that sort and
leaves with the avowed intention of
making arrangements for the funeral as
soon as the inquest is over.
"A day or so later a--gennine relative
shows up, and the fakir makes it his
business to be near at hand. He con-
vinces the genuine mourner that he is a
distant cousin and announces his inten-
tion .of defraying all the expenses of the
funeral, which is welcente news to the
real relative. But he 18 a little short to-
day, having given all his spare currency

to the undertaker as a guarantee pay-
ment, and if the mourner would like. to
chip in $5 or $10 for flowers or carriages,
why, it would be acceptable. Glad to get
out of the heavy tax ineident to burial,
the real relative generally unbelts, and
the fakir disappears for a day or two,
until the 'coast is clear for another opera-
tion of the same kind.
''Why don't- the hospital authorities
break up the prnctice? Well. there's -lots
of reasons. One is that those who are

1NE BOILS,
FOUR RUNNING SORES
STEPHEN LAMB,
The T. Milburn Co., Limited,
Toronto, Ont.
Some time ago my blood got out of
order and nine large boils appeared on
my neck, besides numerous small ones on
my shoulders and arms. Four running
sores appeared on my foot and leg and I
was in a terrible state. A friend adiosed
Burdock Blood Bitters, so I procured three
bottles. After finishing the first bottle the
boils started to disappear an the sores to
heal up. After taking; the third bottle
•there was not a boil or sore to be seen.
Besides this, the headaches from which I
Suffered left me and I improved so much
that I am now strong and robust again.

"I .believe that the fact that dentists
are able to make artificial teeth so close-
ly resembling natural ones and the rapid
improvement in the capacity of the den-
tist to repair faulty teeth has had a very
great effect mien increasing the average
length of human life," said a prominent
dentist.• "There is scarcely any one to-
day who does not have some work done
on his teeth. In former times -times not
so very ancient, either -people allowed
their teeth to decay until an artificial set
was needed. Oftentimes people were
very greatly weakened by the strain of
the removal of the old teeth, and their
lives were made very much Shorter by
the imperfect false teeth that it was nec-
essary to use.
"Nowadays all is changed. A good
dentist can keep a person's teeth in excel-
lent condition. He can stop the decaying
process and prevent the injurious effect
upon the stomach that follows haying
bad teeth in the mouth. Modern den-
tistry has greatly assisted modern sana
tation in lengthening men's lives."

Too Much Money In Steeples.
A church' econornist o2. a practical and
somewhat eccentric turn of mind has
estimated that nearly 845,000,000 has
been invested in nonproductive, nones-
sential and purely ornamental church
buildings in this country, chiefly inthe
form of steeples. If this feature oa eccle-
siastical architecture were diapeusecl
with, according to his estimate, and the
amount represented in steeples alone
turned into the regular channels of
church beneficence, the religious denomi-
nations would be relieved for a long time
to come from the necessity of making
frequent and imperative demands for
money for the- support of their- mission
boards and other established agencies for
promoting religious work.

was troubled
with bad head-
aches and loss
of appetite.
She was tired
and 'listless most
of the time, and
was loosing
flesh.
Her system got
badly run down,
so hearing your
Heart and Nerve
Pills highly spoken of I procured a box,
and by the time she had used them she
had gained gi lbs. in weight and is now in
perfect health.
Yours truly,
Mits. P. H. CURTIS.

MOUNTAIN CLIMBING.
SKILL, PRUDENCE AND EXPERIENCE
• NECESSARY TO SUCCESS.
The Dangers and the Perils of Ascent
and the Method,. of Avoiding Thera
Described by a Veteran Alpinist.
How Accidents Happen.
Mountain climbing is a craft which has
a twofold object -the attainment of the
point which it is desired -to reach and the
neeidance of accident In so doing. The
first is gained by skill, the second by pru-
dence and experience. Accidents are
caused either by things failing upon the
climber Or by the climber himself falling.
When 1 speak of accidents, I mean
practically unavoidable misfortunes. More
than half the deaths that annually occur
on the Alps are caused by neglect of the
most rudimentary precautions and are not
properly accidents. True Alpine acci-
dents are those" which occur in spite of
foresight and precaution. They have al-
ways been few, and when the continually
increasing number of climbers is reckoned
they may be said to decrease rather than
increase in frequency. -
The things that by falling upon a climb -
Ing party may produce fatal results are
rocks, ice and snow. All rock mountains
are falling to pieces -some faster than
others -under the alternate frost and
thaw. 'Water trickles into cracks on a
warm. day. At night it freezes and in
freezing expands. It thus acts like a
wedge to widen the credo and tear rocks
asunder. Thus the --who)e face of most
rock mountains is cumbered with loose
stones balanced on ledges to fall when the
least impulse is applied. One stone in
motion starts others and theyin turn many
more;- In this manner a whole rock face
may be swept by myriads of falling rock's
of all shapes and sizes. Such falls are
fairly common on the east face of the
Matterhorn. That Is why the route fol-
lowed up it keeps as- close as possible to ;
the edge of the face.
Rock faces are usually furrowed with
tracks called gullies and couloirs, worn by
the stones falling down them. If a gtilly
Le straight, stories generally fall down the
middle of it, and the sides may be elitnbed
in comparative safety. Some faees of
rock are less liable to be acme swept than
others. An experieneed climber knows
the signs of danger. When there is much
recently fallen snow on a rock face, stones
do not fall so often as when the snow is
all melted away. A good climber bears
all these facts in mind and knows what
to look out for.
As with stones, so with ice. It does
not fall anywhere and anyhow. It has
•its habits, which may be learned by ob-
servation. Except in the lower part of a
glacier ice seldom appears on the surface.
People talk vaguely of ice wheu they
mean hard frozen snow. Where a glacier
descends a very steep and uneven slope
it breaks up into great lumps of ice,
which are called seracs. Seracs often
tumble, but seldom in the early part of
the day. It is generally easy to perceive
-whether a given serac is ready to fall ..or
whether it is firm, A well chosen route
avoids the track where the serae may be
expected to fall. The crests of some nar-
row snow ridges are fringed with an
overhanging wave of ice, called a cornice.
Cornices grow slowly by accretion of
snowflakes. When they become too big,
they fall, and woe to the man on whom
they fall! The wise man does not pass
under a great cornice.

lanche. Snow avalanches only fall in
.easily recognizable tracks. Most of them
fall in springtime, before climbing be-
gins. The summer avalanches fall after
fresh now has accumulated during bad
weather. Ayalanches, however, seldom
fall on climbers. Usually an accident is
caused by the climbing party starting an
avalanche. Professor Tyndall nearly lost
las life in. this way. He was crossing a
Om slope of snow In the afternoon, aft-
er it had been softened by hot sunshine.
It cracked across, and the whole surface
-a foot deep or so -slid down, carrying
his party with it. By good luck they es-
caped from the rear of the avalanche be-
fore reaching the edge of a cliff, oyer:
which it tell. A prudent climber avoids
crossing rotten snow slopes that are steep.
Most accidents, however, are caused by
falls from rocks, ice or snow. Careful
climbers seldom fall from. rocks. They
do not undertake ascents that are beyond
the skill of their party. If the guides are
good enough for the particular climb, two
of them. will render any tolerable clirnber
safe by proper use of the rope. While
they are moving he keeps still. When
he moves, they reraain firmly planted and
draw in the rope as he advances. If he
slips, they easily hold him.
A fall from ice is less easy to check.
The dangerous places are steep slopes of
• real ice -hard blue ice like the surface of
a frozen pond set up at an angle. Steps
cut in such material are themselves quite
slippery. It a slope of this kind is very
long and takes perhaps hours to ascend,
the time comes when carelessness in fca-
ing or balance may lead to a slip. If the
man ahead is immediately above the one
who slips, he can hold him easily, but if
the ascent, as is probable, is being made
diagonally, a slip is more difficult to ar-
rest, and the whole party will be in great
peril.
From slopes or ridges of now men are
not likely to fall unless they are over-
thrown by a sudden blast of storm, a
has happened once or twice. Even then
a fall may be arrested by using the ax
as a brake if the surface of the snow be
not too hard frozen. The chief danger on
snow is that you may fall through it into
a hidden crevasse. It sometimes hap-
pens after a fresh fall of snow that a
crevasse is completely covered up so that
not a sign of it can be perceived even by
the most experienced eye. Against this
peril, however, there is one certain pro-
tection. It is the rope, rightly used. If
the members of a party are joined, aa
above tlae snow line they always should
be, by a good rope firmly knotted round
the waist of each, with a distance of from
ten to fifteen feet between a man and his
neighbor, and it the rope be not allowed
to dangle on the ground, it will be a mat-
ter of indifference whether one falls into
a crevasse or not. Before he is more
than waist deep the rope .will hold him,
and he will be able to scramble out with-
out difficulty or damage. - Sir Martin
