The case against her is apparently so clear there is no doub: she will be effectually restrained in the future from playing her part of a eervant girl deserviag a good position. Tues iay morn.ng, in answer to Mr. Pres- cott's advertisement for a cook, a woman presented herse.f and gave the name of Annie Mackeown. She was of middle age. seemed neat and respectful, and the Pres- cotiea thought her just the person they had long been Wanting to preside over the des- tinies of the kitehen. She was engaged on the and promised to return that afternoon to cook nes «weds She did return, and prepared an excellent meal Mr. and Mrs. Prescott were delighted. The next morning there were no fires lit. the doors had not been opened and there was no breakfast ready. . Prescott won- dered whether his of a cook had overslept hereelf. to ascertain and opened the door of her room. Hie was very much surprised when he looked in. The bed had not been slept on and nothing had been disturbed. The cook had gone out, Then Mr, Prescott bad SyyMot she grew suspicious and started to invest'gate. He found a deal of eonfusion all over theehouse Furniture hed heen dismaced. drawers broken into and many articles taken. Among the mise- ing things were a sealskin cape, a velvet hat, a laprobe, two pairs of scissors, a set of carving Knives, $1 in money, a number Of dresses and a fru“ cake. The servant had certainly been trionus in her Itmited time for action. Mr. Prescott was indignant. but he lost no time in informing Chief Desmond. He also hunted up Peliceman Cooney, who walks that district, knd informed him of the occurrence. Coonev had worked on several fimilar cases and he attributed them all to the one woman, There was little clew to her, aa she only stayed in each house a few hours, and never left any address. In her haste she had made the mistake of leaving an old bonnet she wore in Mr. Pres- eott’'s house. This the officer took as evi- dence and after much search traced her to the last house she had victimized and where they identified the bonnet. This was at 54 Cates avenue Following up the clew patiently the officer at last discovered the womans home. Notifvine Mr. Prescott, and with Policemen Stiele and Davis went to the Mackeown home, 6852 Wells avenue, and demanded admittance. The woman herself came to the door, and when she saw tne officers she broke down com- pletely, She conferred everything and gave up all Mr. Prescott's goods she had not dis- posed of. Her husband, who was with her, denied all Knowledge of any stealing. She gave the plea of poverty in defense. Under examination she admitted a num- ber of aimilar thefts committed in the same manner Her method was to apply for a position, keep it a few houre and take the first opportunity to ransack the house. Then she would disappear, and up to this time the police had failed to trace her. The extent f thefts is not known. but it jx belleved has been operating all over the Weat End for the past six months. A PRIESTLY PYTHIAN. indus- in company Cooney - ner she ‘The Rev.

He was in high glee Thursday morning. He saw the wave coming and was anxious to tell the public about it. He declares by the beard of the original weather prophet that this cold wave is bona fide. It is chasing the warm atmosphere down from the Northwest and the advance guard of old Boreas’ army of chilling blasts will reach St. Louis Friday morning. The temperature drop by that time will be 20 degrees, That will be only a begin- ner. Next morning it will go lower—how much lower even Dr. Hyatt hesitates to nee, ow fear of violence from a shivering public. “The balmy atmosphere to-day won't be here to-morrow,’ said the Doctor Thursday morning, as he got out his map. “There's the cold wave,” he added, put- ting his tinger on Queen Victoria’s North- west Territory. There’e a “high" up there that will soon chase the “low” between here and there off the earth. The cold wave is in hot pursult—that isn't a joke— after the warm wave we are now ensey a.

It was boun to come. Such weather as we are having couldn’t . last. Theré is no false alarm about this. The drop here by to-morrow morning will be not less than 20 degrees. The cold should continue three or four days, and it will be real nipping weather. The show will probably not amount to much and will come at the beginning of the drop in temperature.’’ Dr. Hyatt’s promise of cold weather will bring joy to thousands of boys and giris who received skates and sleds from Santa Claus, and whose hearts have been filled with dark despair by the continuance of warm weather. Three or four days of cold weather, such as Dr. Hyatt promises, should freeze over all the ponds fit for skating. GOOD MAN GONE WRONG. Pioneer of Rich Hill Arrested While _ Robbing the Postoffice. Special to the Post-Dispatch, RICH HILL, Mo., Dec. 29.—George A. Davis, who has been a residént of Rich Hill ever since the city was laid out, was arrested this morning at 6 o'clock while in the act of robbing the postoffice. He had entered the front door with a key. He was related to the former poetmaster and was familiar with the surroundings. He secured only a small amount, which was in the drawer.

There is within the trade terri- tory of St. Louls an industrial city founded thirty yeare ago, in which all the factories are owned by the workmen and where co-operation, with all the equalities promised for it, long ago ceased to be a dream and is now a reality.

FORT SCOTT, Kan., Dec. 29.—The en- tire Board of Directors of the Moran (Kan.) Bank, which failed last January, has, ac- cording to papers filed in the Appellate Court here to-day, been in the Alien County jail for nearly a week, charged by depos'- tors with having violated the new banking law of 1897, making specifications for the gavernment of banks in Kaneas. The de- fendants are; Joshua Rumbie, who at the time of the bank failure was regarded as be.ng@ very wealthy; W. A. Ross, J. H. Ross, Wiiliam VParke and Cashier kK. A. Brown. ‘They appeared, by counsel, before Judge Schoonover of the Appellate Court at nos home in Garnett to-aay and pre- sented a petition for their release on a writ of habeus corpus. Judge Schoonover soun after issued an order through the court in this city, re.easing them on §200 bonds each until March 14 next, when thelr cases will be heard here. The defendants attack the constitutionality of the new law and information. The court's order was imme- diately wired to Allen County. The Morah Bank was closed by the State Bank Examiner last January and waa found to be in such bad condition that the depositors had little hope. Upon com- plaint of some of them the arrests were made. They are charged specificaliy with failne to hold regular meetings and with having failed to require bonds of the of- ficers, or to exercise proper mansgemen't of the bank's affairs, which under the new law is a felony. Pres'dent Rumble is, a feeble old man and at the time of the. bank's failure was thought to be immense.y wealthy. THEIR AGES WIDE APART.

Mr. Merriam iswsnow in Warthington and has had severa! interviews with the Presli- dent, but declines to contirm or deny the report.

Does it not show that no cure has been feund, and stamp as failures all the old methods of treating th's disease? To those who know that the two most prevalent kinds of dyas- pepsia are so entirely different from each other as to require separate treatment, and that the remedy for one counteracts the effect of the other, this is not surprising, especially as all remedies advertised here- tofore have been mixed and given to- gethe In the dyspepsia third and most dangerous kind of (Intestinal Indigestion), it was different; for this disease, caused by bac- teria, there was no cure.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.—Two packages of poison have been sent to the Knickerbocker Athietic Club within the last seven weeks, both of which have resulted in death.

His character is extremely good. A young man of about 37, he has been identilied With at ieast three of the best athletic as- eociations tn this country. He got hia first training as a at Harvard University. Later he director of athletic instruction at the Bos- ton Athletic Assoctation. From there he went to Chicago as manager of the gymna- sium at the splendid athletic clubhouse on Michigan avenue.

Adams was a lived with her Rogers, an insurance ish. a well-known athlete and poysica: di- rector of the Knickerbocker Athletic Clab. boards with Rogers. Mrs. Adams awoke his morning w.th a severe headache, Her atighter, Mrs. Rogers, advised her to take some bromo seltzer. She got some in Mr. Cornish’'s room and gave to her mother a fuir-sized dose. In a few seconds Mrs. Adams was in «reat pain and evidently surf.- fering from the effects of a strong po'‘son, Dr. Hilichcock was called in and tried to counteract the effects of the poison, which was declared to be cyanide of potassium. Mr. Cornish and Dr. Hitchcock both tasted the poisonous stuff, and in a few minutes both were prostrated by the effects of the alight quantity they had taken. Dr. Potter was called in. He revived the tWo men, but Mra. Adams died. Mr. Cornish states that on Christmas day he received a neat package addressed to himeelf, containing a sterling aiiver medi- cine bottle-holder, in a Tiffany box, and in the holder was a bottle marked ‘Bromo- Seltzer.’ The package Was anonymouely eent, but Cornish says he thought nothing of this. It was this bottle that Mrs. Rog ers got for her mother, and out of which Mra. Adama drank with fatal effect. Mr. Cornish says he can not think who could have had any designs on hie life. Harry Cornish is a cousin of Mrs. Adams, and is 40 years old. He has been the phy- gical director of the Knickerbocker Ath- letic Club for three years. Prior to that time he was the physical director of the Chicago Athietic Club, and prior to that a well-known figure in football and other gports and a coach for many college teams, On the morning of Dec, 24 there came to the deak of the Knickerbocker Club office a package wrapped in manila paper and genied w.th wax. On the flat surface was written ‘n a feminine hand, disguised to cause the impression that the vEting was dune by a man, the address: Mr larry Cornish, Knickerbocker Club, Madison ave- nue ard F riy-fifth street, New York City. The package had been mailed at the general delivery office downtown. In the wrapper ofr manila paper was a pasteboara box marked, “Tiffany,” In the box the usual cotton packing, and in the center wrapper, in white tissue paper, a vial holder ef polished silver On the bottom of the holder is marked, “Sterling silver, number g14."" In the receiving cylinder of the hold- er was a 10-cent vial of “‘bromo-seltzger., The bott.e Was wrapped in the usual label of the drug made in Baltimore.

IF LONDON SHOULD FALL IN? ——— He ———EEE Parliament Will Consider the Increas- into the earth? This is the startling possi- bility that has caused worry among men of acience, and even terror in some quur- tere since recent facts of subsidence have been made public in the newspapers, and SO great is the alarm that one of the first measures with which Parl ent will be called upon to deal when Breer. a few weeks hence will be a bill, e object of which Is to put a check, if not an absolute stop, to the alarming increase in the pro- cess of honeycombing the foundations and subsoil of the British metropolis. What with two and even three layers of under- kround railroads, the one below the other. and huge conduits, tunnels, sewers and suDWays of every description, the eubsoll of London is honeycombed to the depth of near.y 100 feet. The result is beginning to be felt. The other day the papers recorded an alarming subsidence in Hyde Park, where the ground euddenly showed a rift of the length of a couple of hundred feet in two directions, the cleft being about DBD feet deep. Then, too, the roadway suddenly sank last week for a length of about 0 yards on one side of Fleet street, gravely Interfering with the traffic of that crowded thoroughfare, while only the police reports and the returns of the building inspectors can convey any idea of the large number of big edifices in the city and of mansione, both great and small, in the residence dis- tricts that show cracked walls, that are tottering, or which are actually wrecked by subsidence of the ground. ; As yet nothing is known of any Westmineter Abbey, the houses of Parlia- ment, or St. Paul's Cathedral, but the kravest fears are entertained with regard to thelr safety, “WAR CRY” CHAMPION. -_———— a> Lieut.-Anna Lindberg Has Broken All the Army Records. injury to Lieut. Anna Lindberg, the champion War Cry seller of the United States, broke her own and all other records last week. She sold %4 copies of the Christmas edl- tion of the War Cry, which is the largest number by long odds ever sold by a single officer of a single issue in a single week since the Salvation Army began. Miss Lindberg is the War Cry seller of Corps No. 1, or Franklin avenue. The 15th of next month she will have been there a year. In that time she has built up, the best “route’’ of any War Cry seljer in the United States. Since the championship of Lieut. Lin4d- berg was chronicled in the Post-Dispatch, she has had smoother sailing than before. “Many business menand saloonkeepers who had not before permitted me to enter their places, either because they thought I would draw the attention of their employes away from their work or through a feeling of hostility, after they read about me in the Post-Dispatch seemed to take an Interest in me. ‘hey bought of me and permitted me to sell papers in their places.

CAUGHT FROM A_ SPARK. e Firemen Had Great Difficulty Prevent- ing the Total Destruction of the Plant at Broadway and Lami. A fire that destroyed the woodwork in the boller rooms at the Broadway cable power house, at Broadway and Lami street, was discovered at 3:38 o'clock Thursday morn- ing. Traffie on the cable line was delayed sev- eral hours, and during the early part of the morning the cars crept along the tracks at enail pace because of the inability to raise steam. By 8 o’clock affairs had ad- justed themselves and the road was run- ning as usual. The Broadway cable is operated by two power houses. One is at Broadway and Lami and the other, its twin, is at Broad- way and Salisbury. The bulk of the work Thursday morning was done by the Salis- bury street establishment. The boller room where the fire occurred is 120 feet long and 4 feet wide. It is on the Lami street side and is two stories high. Two itmmense smoke stacks run from the ground up through the middle of the room. The fire was discovered on the second floor, in the rear, by Chief Engineer John Kelley. There were three men_ on duty at the time of the fire besides Kel- ley. Assistant Kingsley, Fireman Burn- ley and a helper. Only the fireman was in the boller room. When the fire was discoveted the firemen ran to turn in an alarm and Kelley and his assistants tried to fight the fire with the equipment of the power house. The interior of the room was built of pine and the fire had gained such headway it was impossible to stay its progress. When the fire department arrived the interior was one mass of flames and the firemen had all they could do to prevent their spread. There was nota great deal of wood used in the construction of the building and most of this was soon burned away. The place was drenched with water from a half-dozen fire engines and a force of work- men put to work removing the charred pieces of timber. It was found the boilers were uninjured and the walls not harmed. The fires in the furnaces had died down, but were not out, They were started up and the big engines began te move. Capt. McCulloch, the euperintendent, was at the power house early Thursday morn- ing. He made an investigation, and said he thought the fire must have originated on the second floor from a spark. Lines transferring to the Broadway cable did not ‘ssue checks during the early morning traffic, but by 8 o’clock cars were running without interruption. Capt. McCulloch said the loss would not be heavy and was fully covered by insur- ance: ADMITTED THEIR MARRIAGE. William 8S. Rossey and Miss Blanche E. Young Secretly United. Willlam 8. Rossey of 2222 Adams street and Miss Blanche E. Young of 4519 North Market street are married, although they declared emphatically to a reporter Wed- nesday that they were not. They have admitted the wedding took place Tuesday evening in Centenary Church, Sixteenth and Pine streets, and that the ceremony was performed by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Young. As was told in Wednesday’s Post-Dis- patch, Mr, and Mrs. Rossey did not in- form their parents they were to be married. Only two friends were in the secret and they were witnesses to the ceremony. They are Harry Dreyfus and Miss Jessie Willi- son. The four persons agreed the public should not know of the wedding. The parents of the contracting parties. also were to be kept in’ ignorarice of the affafr. After the ceremony, Mr. Rossey took his bride to her father’s home, bade her good night and returned to his own apart- ments. But notwithstanding all this pre- ve” friends learned they had been mar. ried. After the marriage was announced in the Post-Dispatch, Mr. and Mrs. Rossey has- tened to inform their parents of their action. They were forgiven and blessed. Both are employed in a Washington ave- nue dry goods store. They first met in an elevator several months ago. They were charmed with each other and a friendship followed which soon ripened into love.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 23.—After being adrift on the ocean for 2% days and BW nights in a frail boat Capt. McDonald, his wife and three children, survivors of the American ship W. H. Starbuck, were res- cued by the bark C. D. Bryant, Capt. Colly. They arrived at this port yesterday. The Starbuck was burned in the South Seas the night of Nov. 5, and the crew took to three boats: The boat in charge of Capt. McDonald drifted three weeks, lacking a day, before land was made. Storms overtook the occupants and life hung by a thread. Tropical suns burned them and the chill of the nights added to their sufferings. Their supply of water gave out and the siow torture of thirst was the culmination of their agony. Through all these days and nights of torment Mrs. McDonald endured hardships with the same heroism that characterizes every member of the unfortunate little family. Even the children, Howard, aged 7; Maud, 5 years old, and Gladys, the baby of 19 months, seemed to imbibe something of the heroic spirit and endured almost as bravely as the rest. Mrs, McDonald said: The cook was drowned, but we picked up the rest. Then there. were fifteen in our little shell, ard we wete cramped for room. The allowance of water was cut down from a pint to half u pint. We had plenty of hard bread, canned fruits and meats. I partook of nothing but the fruit. The short allowance cf water made the situation se- rious, but the men behaved like heroes. They never made a complaint, and took their turns bailing out the boat. When the mates crew came in our boat we had to throw overboard everything in the way of clothing, save what We wore. ‘The thought that I might lose my reason began to prey on me, and my condition be- came almost hysterical. The twentieth day we saw land. My husband had promised to the man who first saw the shore a big Slass of water. He himself won the re- ward. I can not describe the scenes in that little boat when land was sighted. I scarce- ly knew what I was doing or saying. I hugged my children to me and thanked God for His goodness. ‘The land we had made was Hookena, and next day at noon we were ashore. The natives came outside the reef and we were put into one of their boats. My limbs re- fused to support me.”’ Capt. McDonald, like his wife, was born in Canada, but is an American.

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—Aseistant District Attorney Gerald Hall Gray has discovered an organized plot tu mulct street railway companies by perjufed testimoney. The first arrest was that of Charies Gallaher, an adjuster, about twe weeks:-ago. Tues- day night William Rapp, a janitor at 164 East Ejightieth street, was arrested, and Michael P, O’Connor, a lawyer, gave himm- self up and was admitted to bail. The indictment of the alleged conspira- tors is a blanket indictment, containing the names of five defendants. The affida- vits tell a curious story of the cheapness of perjured testimoney by, witnesses re- garding an accident which they never saw. One witness, who was put through a course of study so that he m'ght know the etory by heart, is said to have got $10 to com- mit perjury. Another got $. They did not always remember the stories, and one man. who was in Oklahoma when the accident to which he testified occurred, aroused the suspicion of Justice Freedman by the man- ner of telling his story.

RULES S FOR POLICEMEN. ———-— - Their Good and Bad | Points Empha- sized by the Board. The Board of Police Commissioners have adopted the following rules, suggested by Capt. Phillips, declaring its estimate of what a policeman should and should not be. The rules are read at roll call every morning, so that officers may become en- tirely familiar with them: 1. The lack of prompt obedience to in- structions of all euperior officers and that respectful civility due to thelr rank. 2. A disregard of cleanliness of attire and neatness of appearance, as expressed in soiled, ill-fitting or unbrushed uniforms, tarnished buttons and uncleaned shoes. Carelessness in deportment or in the dignity becoming an officer and gentleman, 4. A course of improper behavior, s6uch as acting the idjer on his beat, frequenting RULE 1.—D0 ap viICeEs NEED drams shops or questionable pl ices es whil in the discharge of police duty. % 5.

In his interview favoring the retention of the Philippines Senator Frye said: If we give them g00d government théré “will be little difficulty. If we do mot send carpet baggers and political hacks and ad- venturers with an eye to making money there to govern thése people; if we show wisdom and sincerity of purpose there will be no serious difficulty in the govérnment. Senator Frye suggests a big “if,” which embodies the root of the question. Can any people be intrusted with the government of an- other people? Jf this can be done safely then our political structure is based upon a false assi~mption and her struggle for liberty Was useless. Can any people be intrusted with the power fo exploit another people? If this can be done safely then the whole experience of mankind substantiates a lie. If we do not send carpet baggers, political hacks and ad- venturers to the Philippines, whom shall we send? Whose claim tc appointment to places in the imperial government of our colonies, will be superior to that of the politicians who use the machine to support the admigistration in power? Are ro political hacks and adventurers put in office in this country? In the days of the reconstruction of the South the Republic- ans sent carpet baggers, political hacks and adventurers tu rule over and rob their own kith and kin. The scars of these outrages are scarcely healed and thé bonds issued by the carpet-bag rascals are a heritage of debt fér the third and fourth generations. What reason is there to expect that the politicians of any party will be more considerate of the rights and interests of Cubans, Porto Ricans and Filipinos than of those of Americans? Has human nature been completely changed? Has there been a revolution in our political methods and purposes? St. Louis is proud of Kansas City. In indorsing St. Louis as the proper location of the World's Fair of 1903, the Kansas City Real Estate Exchange has shown a wise foresight that will be abundantly repaid. No other Missouri city except St. Louis could have got the Fair, and what helps St. Louis helps Kansas City .and the entire State. iil. i — Boss Platt, rather than the President, appears to control the appointment of Ambassador to Great Britain..

The both riders are very prper in New York, and aince his ex- ibition of last Monday, Gibson is the idol of all cycle enthusiasts who are anxious to see an American of Michael's size defeat him, if such a thing is possible. Reviewing cycling abroad, Germany must be given credit due her. In the year just closing she hes held her own with other countries giving bicycle meets and has d's- tributed over 346,000 in purses to profes- sional riders. In the city of Berlin there are five tracks on which 190 races have been run the past year. All these meets and others held on the seventy other bicycle tracks in that country have been a great success finan- clally. The managers have used ihe best of judgment and cycling will always pros- per there. It has become a popular sport and next year Germany will equal America in her number of riders. Charlies W.

CASPER LEON AND JIMMY BARRY MEET AT OMAHA THURBS- DAY EVENING. GEORGE KIRWAN VERY SORE. He and George Gilmore, His Tranier, Say They Were Robbed of Honors Honestly Won at Toronto. The fight for the 110-pound championship of America whl take place at Omaha Thursday night before the City Athletic Club. Casper Leon and Jimmy Barry will meet there then in a W-round bout. Barry has trained at Davenport and Leon at Chi- cago and both are in fine shape for to- night's match. Zarry is the man who killed Walter Croat in a fight at London, England. After that battle he vowed that he would never enter the ring again. Thursday evening he met vows and declares that this is to be last appearance. This declaration on his part leads admirers to believe that he is going to win, but the fr'ends of Leon are just as confident, and they are betting al their money on the little Italian. It will be remembered thay last Satur- day night at Toronto, (Canada. Matty Matthews was given the decision over aa Kirwan, the Chicago boxing mys- Kirwan is the man who fought Lally and Connolly in St. Louts, and who raised such a commotion by his peculiar tactics in the ring. Kirwan has just returned from Toronto to his home in Chicago, and he was ac- companied there by h‘s trainer, Harry Gil- more. The latter on his arrival told the Chicago reporters that he and Kirwan were awfully sore over their treatment@at Toronto. “We were robbed, and that ifs all there was to the matter,’ he declared. “I did not like Dixon for referee and asked one or two of my friends about him. They said they thought he was all right and would render a fair decision. I was therefore lead to desist from making an objectién. “There was no doubt who won. I1 was afraid they would call it a draw, as I could see that Dixon waa favoring Mathews, but I never dreamed he would give the fight to him." Kirwan !s dsigusted wtih the treatment he received and declared he would not figh again for a year if it were not for hi coming match wtth Ziegler. It is possible that another match may be arranged bDe- tween the men. Leon and he his his Jim Jeffries, the heavy-weight boxer from Los Angeles, ha: been matched to box twenty rounds with Joe Kennedy of San Frunciseo under the auspices of the Na- tional Club on Jan. 27. The purse will con- sist of 8 per cent of the gate receipts. Friday night Dan Creeden and George Green wil) have their mill at San Francisco, Doc Payne and Jim Hurley will meet at elmira, and George Kennan and Owen Ziegler and Auetralilan Jimmy Ryan and John Root will come together at Chicago. Pugilistic Pointers. Gteen and Creedon are well matched and their coming fight in Frisco is expected to be a great one. Both men are training hard. The fight has called eff. The men were ta fight next month, but some disagreement led to fhe bout being postponed to some future date. Jim Jeffries, the big Californian, will not fight Jim Kethnedy next month. Jeffries will not be in condition in time, and hag asked to have the mill postponed. A “ringer” was worked off on the sports of Birmingham, England, nat long ago. A fighter of good ability who looked a great deal like Bobby Dobbs was rung off for that individual, and after winning his fight secured the stakes in spite of proof that he was not Dobbs. Judging from Tommy Ryan’eé bout wtih O'Rrien at ‘Hartford not long ago, he has a poor show with Fitz if the two men meet. O'Brien. although he got the worst of the mill, did not class with Ryan, and Tommy desefves no credit for gaining the decision. Young who will Dixon soon, has fought and never suffered defeat. One of the greatest fights in Australia was between Griffo and Pluto. The men fought fast and furtous for 8) rounds until the fight was called a draw. That was before Griffo made his debut in America. AMERICAN ATHLETES. They Have Done Some Wonderful Work During the Past Year. Although the American atheletes have not attracted much attention this year they have done some wonderful work. John Flanagan, who is a member of the New York Athletic Club, one of the great- athletes of the present day, threw a hammer 158 feet and 4 inches, world’s record of 130 feet 4 (“hoynski-Ruhlin heen meet George Pluto, over 9 Dbatties est 16-pound breaking the inches. This wonderful feat was performed at the New Jersey Athletic Club games on Decor- ation Day. Ee. C. Kraezlein, a student of the Univer- sity of. Pennsyivania, ran a furlong over sticks in 233-5 seconds. This marvelous feat was completed in the Intercollegiate games last May. On that day Kraeziein made a name for himself that will live al- ways. Beside that feat he has done other thirgs and proved himself to be one of the moet wonderful sprinters in the world, Another feat that attracted attention from all over the wor'd Was the vault made by Clapp, the Yale athlete, who cleared a rope at the height of 11 feet 10% Inches. The old reeord of 11 feet 6% inches has stood since 1882. Clapp has a way of hits own of clearing ropes and making high jumps. He is considered a comer in this line and it is expected he will clear 12 feet next year. GAME LAWS TO BE CHANGED. Hunters and Fishermen May Be Com- | pelled to Pay a License. D.

Ives wants to play ¢ix nights tn Syracuse, N. ¥.. at three styles of billiards. If the men meet there Silverman offers a purse of $1000 to the winner. The challege was somewhat of a surprise to Shaefer, but he emiled a: he answered the proposition al- lowing that his old pupil had plenty of rve a his answer Shaefer said he was satis- fled with Syracure as a place to eisy in, so long as Ives would not come to hicago. He also stated that it would be better to play five nights instead of six, and the winner of three out of five games take the purse. Shaefer wants the purse ratted for in his old days he would not play five nights for $1000. The “‘Wizard” will not play unless a ' ; ; contract of every thing signed by Ives be scent to him. He thinks that it is all a bluff on Ives’ part and that that Individual will back out when he receives his (Shae- er’s) reply. : Should this match be pulled off it would excite world-wide attention. Never before ha va match-like this been arranged. In testantse have played only one kind of hilliards and in this it is agreed to Play three styles.
