Physicians Praise His Strong Bones and
CIosely-k Joints.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 24.-James J.
Corbett, the champion pugilist, has
been under the Roentgen rays. He
su omitted to this, the most searching
of all Photographic processes, for the
first time in his life. During the in
terva1s between the sittings the medi-
cal men present made a close study of
Corbett's anatomy through the me-
dunn of the fluorescent screen. DIR.
Jones says over his own signatures:
1T is unusual in my experience
with these examinations to find
a man with such large, strong bones,
and at the same time possessing the
closely-knit joints which one finds the
most striking features of Corbett's
bony anatomy. This is undoubt edly
one of the chief reasons for his great
power and certainty of blow"

SHOT HIS SON-IN-LAW.

An Aged Kansan Resents Unpleasant c.

CHANUTE, Kan, June 24.-Twentv
miles west of here, T. ]. Newman,
aged II years, shot and fatally wound
ed his son-in-law, b. F. Worthing,
with shotgun. Family trouble was
the cause. The old man and a daugh-
ter, Is years old, lived with his son-in-
laws family, and occupied one room
together. This latter fact aroused the
suspicious of the family, and also of
the ghbors, and unpleasant stories
were circulated. Matters finally came
to a focus when Worthing gave the old
man notice to leave the house and
threatened him with arrest

The city of New York once had
white house, of its own. That was
when President Washington was the
bright particular star of the fashiona-
BILE and exclusive set of Cherry Hill.
At that time it was supposed, in New
York at least, that the capitol of the
nation would always be there. The
city, with some aid from the state,
built an executive mansion which was
both pretentious and handsome. 1t
was brick structure with q colonnade
of great marble pillars standing on a
knoll on Bowling Green. 1t had
large state apartment which was fitted
up in the manner of a throne room,
with raised dais and chair of state
for the president to hold his formal re-
captions in In many other ways the
appointments of the stately mansion
resem b1ed d palace of the other CONT
uent.
The mansion was finished in 1870,
but never occupied by Washington,
the seat of government being moved at
that time to this city. Then the eXecu-
tive mansion in Bowling Green became
the governors house, and in 1T George
Clinton and John jay lived during
their terms of office 1t was a pleasant
and stately place of residence, with
the park of Bowling Green and the
rapidly extending thoroughfare of
Broadway before it and the aristocrat-
ic mansions of the Battery back of it.
In 1899 the building was altered in
its interior and became the custom
house. It remained the place for the
receipt of customs until 1915, when it
was torn down and the property sold off

BEAUTIFUL JAVA
It's Scenery Said he Example of Trop-
ical Perfection.

Sts Scenery Said to BE an Example of Trop-
ical Perfection.
The scenery of Java is, / think, trop-
tca1 perfection No sameness in the
landscape wearies the eye All is val
ley and noun tain, cultivated with
beautiful congratulated ricefelds,
emerald-green stretches of tall, waving
maize, small thickets of bamboos
gracefully bending to the breeze-or
covered with tropical verdure only
equaled in beauty by the forests of
South America Being only midday
when we arrived at Tassikmalaya we
ordered tiffin and two carts to be
ready an hour later to take us on a rs
mile stage to Bandjar- So at two
o'clock we were once more en- route in
the usual conveyances of small avn
UNCOVERED carts-each drawn by
three ponies-one for ourselves and
the other for the baggage. For the
6rst few hours we passed frequently
through small villages where the
ponies were watered and our drivers
smoked small, tapering cigarettes,
which they bought for a quarter-pen-
ny the packet
The last part of the journey was
through tall jungle, and as the sun
had set some two hours before our ar
rival at our destination it was no easy
matter for the drivers to keep the road
in the inky darkness Finally. long,
steep hill took us down from the COM
parative GOODNESS of high altitude in
to the fetid swanps where lies the
town of Bandjar. At first sight you
would think these swamps inha bited,
in such myriads do the fref1ies fit to
and fro, or hang motionfess, lamplike,
in the misty air, giving one the idea of
the lights of some distant village. All
the natives here, as elsewhere in the
island, hold the white man in great
awe, and as you pass along all dof
their huge brimmed hats and some
kneel by the wayside. In such towns
in the interior as Bandjar there are no
hotels, but the Dutch government
provides free stopping houses for trav
elers-dirty, tum ble-down places for
the most part-where a caretaker will
look after them for consideration"
