Rev. JOHN d. KNOX, famous as q
preacher, lecturer and boomer, IS on
trial ut the First Methodist church in
Topeka on a charge Of robbing the
bretheren through the failure of the
Knox Banking company of Topeka
six years ago. Hundreds Of Topeka
Methodists had their money in the
Kuox concern and lost it all.
A criminal proceeding was brought
against Knox, but the banking law
was lame and he escaped punishment.
Then he was tried before the Metho-
dist conference aud ordered to sur
render his license to preach. He sp-
pealed to the general conference at
Cleveland, O., lRsl May, which body
reversed the decision Of the lower
court and sent the case to Kansas for
a new trial. The present court is
composed of nine ministers OF the
Kansas conference. Knox is repre-

Kansas Debts.

A great deal OF space in some of
the eastern papers is being devoted to
Kansas mortgages. Some of these
papers publish notices that are not
very complimentary to us. They
seem to think as a Glass the Kansas
man who mortgsged his farm and
hen failed to pay his debt is dishon-
est. Nlnety-fve per cent. Of the
mortgages given upon Kansas proper
ty were made in good faith. The
money was spent in improvements,
for stock, for the payment of debte,
and for various other honest purposes.
The lands were valued at the prices
then prevailing. A portion of these
mortgages have been paid off, for it
was only few years ago that the
Capital published reports from each
county in the state showing that the
mortgage indebtnPss was decreasing
each month. Since that time the bot
tom has fallen out Of the country and
mortgagor and mortgage alike have
lost. In this claim Of honest dealing
we do not refer to those boom mort
gage companies, that sprsng mp by
the score, they may have been frauds
but the actual borr,wer WAS in the
main honest.

with much opposition. While there

The Doughty Young Boxer Brings His

He was met at Oakland by his sister, his
brother Herbert and other members OF the
family, Edward Creamy, Mrs. Creamy, and
a number of other friends. The chomp pions
delight at seeing once more the hills Of his
native City was most affecting. Standing
on the steamers deck he supported his
lovely Chicago bride with one arm, while
with the other he indicated a number of
the Ciry's landmarks which seemed most
endeared to his memory.
On arriving in the City more friends
were waiting to receive him, and the young
high priest of the manly art and his fair
lady were escorted to their temporary
quarters with every demonstration of well
come. The champion now weighs about
l62 pounds, and has made quite a record
during his absence from home. One of

CARVED HIS FACE.
George Green, Well Known to the
Police, Has Row With
W0man.

George Green, man we'll known to the
police, was taken to the Receiving Hos
pital at an early hour yesterday morning
with his face carved with cuts, one extend
ing from his ear to his chin.
He refused TO say who had cut him, but
it was afterward learned that it was
woman who lives with him at 311 Grant
avenue. They had quarrel, and the
woman drew knife and carved Green's S
face with it.
There is a case of carrying a concealed
weapon pending against Green in Judge
Conlan's court. A few days ago he threat
ened to kill Policeman Webster for arrest
ing one of his friends, and went hunting
for the officer with revolverin his pocket.
Policeman W. Dinan heard of it, and
meeting Green on the street arrested him,
and found the revolver in his pocket.
About Il year ago Claude Lee, in a saloon
on Stockton street, had a satchel stolen
from her containing $1,000 worth of dia-
monds. Green was with her at the time,
and she accused him of the theft. The
following day, while the police were
searching for Green, the satcuel with the
diamonds was returned by come unknown
messenger and the case was dropped.

Mr., HOLBROOK IS FIRM,
Will Maintain His Stand
Against Coursing, the Board
Willing.
Says HIS Critics Dent Know What
They Are Talking About-His
Power Limited.

"They don't know what they're talking
about"
Secretary Holbrook of the Society for
the Prevention OF Cruelty to Animals
made the sweeping statement in a sweep
ing manner. He referred to the opinions
of Dominick Shannon, J. H. Rossiter, John
Grace, A. Lorsbach, John Sammi and
others relative to coursing, published in
yesterdays CALL.
81 contend that coursing is brutal" the
gentleman continued, land as long as the
board takes that view l will arrest any one
found practicing it in the confines of the
County. People who criticize my attitude
forget that my jurisdiction is confined to
the County of San Francisco.
"Coursing has never been tolerated in the
County. Eighteen years ago some parties
tried to open coursing park on Point
Lobos road, halfway between the old toll
gate and the Cliff House. They were
promptly arrested, and promised to aban-
don the plan. That was the first, last and
only attempt.
"Mr. Shannon talks about horse-racing,
and asks whether I consider il humane
sport. My answer is to refer him TO the
court records for the case against Thomas
Williamson and others, for unnecessary
cruelty in racing. His horse fell exhausted
after he had gone under the wire. | prose-
cuted Williamson, but Judge Low dis
missed the case.
"Mr. Shannon saysI am mistaken about
grayhounds tearing hares to pieces while
they are in dying state. l can produce
twenty witnesses to prove it. He asked
whether l think duck or quail shooting
brutal. That strikes me as silly ques
ton. Ducks and quails have chance for
life. Hares have practically none. Be
sides every body knows that the game he
mentioned is killed for the market.
"Rabbits are pests. Granted. So are
rats. but we arrested gang of rat-baiters
at Haileck and Leidesdorff streets beca use
their sport was unnecessary cruelty Put
an end to pests, but do 1t in the most hu-
name way possible, | say.
"Mr. Hughes tells an untruth if he says
sent a deputy to stop the bluerock shoot.
My deputies are quite as intelligent and
that they never received such instruc-
tons"

THE DISTRICT COUNCIL.
Several Strong Outside Unions VIII
Answer Call to Strike the Par
rOtt Building To-Morrow

Several Strong Outside Unions WIN
Answer Call to Strike the Par
rott Building Tomorrow.
The Building Trades Council held spe-
cial meeting last evening to hear reports
relative to the strike. The Shingiers'
Union and the Amagamated Interna-
tional Carpenters Union sent delegates,
who said that their organizations were
ready to join in the strike.
The two walking delegates reported that
the Parrot building had been struck in
the morning and that every union man
connected with the Building Trades Coun-
Gil had responded to man.
The electrical workers and plum bers at
work on the building told the delegates
that they would strike the Job if requested,
although their unions are not actually
affiliated with the council. There are
about 125 of these artisans employed there.
The business agents were instructed to
accept the offer and call these men out on
Monday morning; also to call out all
either union or non-union sympathizers
who will respond. This will leave very
small force of workmen in the building so
far as can be learned.
The business agents and the grievance
committee were specially instructed to
use every honorable means in their power
TO bring about speedy settlement Of the
Parrott building strike.
The organizing committee was directed
10 meet with the tinand lmetal roofers on
Tuesday night, and with the tile-setters on
Wednesday night, at lis Turk street, and
organize both trades, who will send dele
gates to the council.
The council will meet again on Monday
evening

that curiosity and in many instances
confusion occurs relative to the manner in
which the numbers of the street are carried
out. Ordinarily the odd numbers are on
one side of street and the even ones on
another ard they alternate on almost
directly opposite sides. Not 50, however,
with Market street. For instance nu m be +
1925 is located on the north side, between
Mason and Powell, while 1925, on the
south side. instead OF being opposite, is a
block beyond. between Sixth and Seventh
streets. In order to straighten out this
confusion in numbering F. B. Ges has de-
vised Market-street business directory,
wherein all the Objectionable features of
Market-street numbering are overcome,
and it enables any one to readily locate
between what streets any particular num-
ber on either side is located. This direc-
tory will be much appreciated by mer-
chants doing business on this thoroug b.
fare, and it will no doubt make it me-
dunn much in demand for the insertion OF
business cards or announcements.
