"Young women should not be allowed to go to after-theatre sup- pers and I think that a Dutch neck is sufficiently low for a first on second season debutante. A mother with young boys should be especially strong against this habit of girls drinking, for it has come to be ex- pected that drinks are to be ordered. "When a young man takes a girl oéut to dinper or luncheon, it is as- sumed that she does mot object to trinking and in this way she is re- spousible for his drinking. If the girls did not drink as much as they do, boys would not.

The English Amateur Athletic As sociation have decided to appoint seven delegates to confer with the National Cyclists' Union with regard to the dispute that has arisen over the latter's right, under the agree: ment, to sanction professional foot races at amateur cycling meetings. There is trouble abroad as well as at home. New York Sun: At his best Burns does not class with such noted heavy- weights of the past, as Corbett, Fitz. simmons, Sharkey, Rublin, McCoy and the great Jeffries, but he is the best white man at the weight in this coun- try at the present time, although many believe that "Jack" Johnson, the big negro pugilist, give him the fight of his life. Cotter, the Burlington long distance runner, says the New York papers misrepresented him in the Yonkers, N.Y., Marathon race. Ie says he did pot "blow up," but that he was dis- qualified at the twenticth mile, and compelled to pull out of the race. He was told that he was being paced by a professional runner, a young man from the hotel he Stayed at, who volunteered to accompany him over the course. Cotter says he got a raw deal. He thinks he would have won the race had he been permitthd to finish the course. Brusso, the Canadian pugilistic champion, is of German extraction, wot French, as is generally supposed. He employs no business manager, pre- ferring to manage his own affairs, and bank the salary which a manager would have to be paid. Noah is thrifty, uses neither liquor nor to- bacco, and during the seven years he has been in the ring has amassed a modest fortune. He is proud of being a Canadian, and never fails to an- nounce himself as such. He has fought his way in less than five years from obseurity to a position which no pugilist has heretofore attained. Mrs. Brusso is a member of a prominent old southern family, with the inherent aversion to the negro. For this rea- son Brusso avoids "Jack" Johnson and it is doubtful whether the pair will ever meet.

A rather unfortunate accident, to- day, was the breaking of the main belt at Richardsons' elevator, thereby delaying the unloading of the steamer Nevada.
