Kvery aspiring heavyweight in the
world who wants a crack at Jack
Johnsodn's title will be accommedat
ed If the Western clubs have dates
enough, Upon his arrival in San
‘Francisco the other day, Johison
stated that there was no one barred
in the heavyweight elimination siakes,
and that the faster they came (he bet
ter he'd like it, Already he has sign
ed to meet Al Kautman, Jim Barry
and Stanley Ketchel, and he expects
to hook up with two more before the
day set for him to meet Ketchel,
which is Octeher 12, Whether the
fight comes off or not, the wesierners
will have seen plenty of boxing by
the champion, The articles of the
Kaufman fight call for ten rounds,
and the decision is to be a draw if
both men are on their feet at the
close of the fight, Johnson had a
taste of the referce business out west
and rather than risk his title with
another limited bout he had the de
cision thing inserted, Marvin Hart
was handed a decision over him out
there some years ago that was a dis
grace, He hadn't one round in his
favor, but in order to collect an old
derby the club owner had the decis
jon framed for Hart and he got it.
Those decisions never did ana never
will do boxing any good. Johnson is
right and extremely tair in asking for
a draw if both are on their feet at
the end. The sporting writers out
there will judge the contest, and their
decision will go. No one man who
can be reached will have a hand

The recent exploits of Nat Cart

mell was picked to win several short
distance events, but he failed. Since
then he has improved wonderfully and
is now showing his heels to the Eng
lish cracks. Recently in a 200-meter
event he defeated Reggie Walker, the
South African speed marvel. Cart
mell is now competing in England as
a member of the Bichfield Harriers.

Some Atlanta fans were talking

the marvelous standing of .083.

) A SPINSTERS' BANK.
Costonians Plar To Make Single
Wemen !ndependent.
A movement has been started in
Boston by Mrs. Glendower Evans, a
well-known clubwoman, to establish
a pension bank for spinsters, which,
she believes, will do away with mer.
cenary marriages, penniless spin
sters, worry about husbands and jokes
about old maids. She has already pre
gsented her plan to the members of
the Massachusetts Insurance Commis
sion and has interested many club
women in her project. Her first prob:
lem was to determine the age of the
spinster, and after careful delibera
tions she decided that it begins at 40
years. Before that age, she says, a
woman has good chances of matri
mony. A depositor, however, may
open an account with the insurance
bank as early in life as she pleases,
and if she marries before she is 40
she receives a goodly sum to start
housekeeping with. If she remains
unmarried, she retains her bank ac
count, and at the age of 50 begins to
receive a regular annuity. If a
woman decides to marry after reach
ing the age of 40 she gets her money
back on demand.
The plan is so unusual that Mrs.
Evans expects to encounter difficulty,
she thinks, and some opposition in
making women understand that the
plan is to their advantage. But she
has a philanthropic band of Boston
women back of her who are ready
and willing to explain the spinster
insurance principle to spinsters.
The Insurance Commission declares
that it is the most unusual banking
proposition ever advanced in Amer:-
ca, and that the women interested are
energetic enough to make it conform
to the Massachusetts insurance laws.

BABY HORRIBLY BURNED |
By Boiling Grease—Skin All Came
Off One Side of Face and Head—
_Ahought Her Disfigured For Life
—Used Cuticura: No Scar Left.
“My baby was sitting beside the fender
nd we were preparing the breakfast when
the frying-pan full of boiling grease was up-
Iset and it went all over one side of her face
and head. Some one wiped the scald with a
towel, pulling the entire skin off. We took
her to a doctor. He tended her a week
and gave, me some stuff to put on. But it
all festered and I thought the baby was
disfigured for life. I used about three
boxes of Cuticura Ointment and it was
wonderful how it healed. In about five
weeks it was better and there wasn’t a
mark to tell where the scald had been.
Her skin is just like velvet. Mrs. Hare,

The Value of Trees. |
The residents of western cities do
not seem to appreciate the value of
trees, as do those of eastern cities.
Nothing adds more to a residential
city than a showing of lordly elms or
poplars lining its streets. What more
pleasant, during these torrid summer
days, than to sit under the shade of
a friendly tree, either at home or in
the yard of a mneighbor Some
householders, of course, appreciate
the value of trees, not alone as a
means of beautifying one’s premises
but as a protection against the heat
of summer and the storms of winter,
and give proper attention to the mat
ter of growing them. The great
mass of our western people, however,
pay but little attention to this high:
ly important matter and for this
reason few of our cities are well
provided with trees.—Bt. Joseph Ga
zette.
