the boys, who halls from Chicago, failed on
the entrance examinations last May. but has

10 hard study, IL will not be surprising IL he
enters. The other boy is from Cincinnati
and reports are to the effect that he is "a

If these boys are admitted, they will at once
be quartered on the receiving ship Saniee,
along with those cadets admitted in May and
their colleagues in the examinations next
week There they will be cared for until oc-
tober I, when the academic year begins.
Then they will be put on their mettle, and IL
they fail to make the required percentage may
be dismissed on:the semi apnual examinations
in Januar y.
Just now the navy Is Smuch exercised over
the possibility OF having two colored cadets nj
Annapolis. and trouble is expected 10 follow
If these young men become members of the

WALCOTT WINS.
Defeats George Green in a Hard
Fought 15-Round Contest.

San Francisco. Cal, Aug. 21-No glove
flght since the Fitzsimmons-S Sharkey
meeting OF last November has been talked
about as much in this city as that of last
night between George Green and Joe
Walcott.
IL was practically championship affair
Green has been the acknowledged head
of mis- class since Tommie Ryan outgrew
the welterweights. Green's victory over
"Mysterious Billy" Smith at Carson last
March, after smith had given Ryan suoh
close call In New York few months
before. placed him second to Ryan.
Waloott's we'll known record as hur-
ricano fighter and his long string OF vic
tories In the East led the public tn believe
that n memorable contest would be the
outcome Of the meeting.
Woodward's Pavilion, holding 1000 peo-
pie, was jammed TO the doors. The
betting was 10 To ~ in Green's favor.
Jack Welch acted as referee.
II was a hard fight oil the way through,
but the end came In the 18th round when
Waloott's in-ighting during the clinohes
was very damaging. He landed "a short
arm right and staggered Green. Another
on tho jaw sent Green 20 the floor for
eight seconds Green got up groggy. and
Walcott Knocked him against,the ropes
and put him out with n succession Of
jolts on the jaw. Green was carried
from the ring unconscious, and it was
several minutes before he recovered his
gpngpe

MANLY MEN !

Unfortunately. many men have, By fast liv-
ing. youthful ind secretion or overwork, shat
tered their nerves so that they are sexually
weak aud lack the vigor and robustness OF
complete manhood. They have lost their
grip. and the mastery that they should
possess, as men, has deserted them.
Men ia this condition naturally worry and
fret until worry brings on lunacy, and all this
is greatly aggravated oy uaprincipled quacks
who under prstense OF curing the patient,
only take their money and fail to give them
an equivalent in sexual strength. The reason
is that they do not possess n remedy adequate

"Embattled Farmers" are
Ready to Fight.
Claim That They are Being
Ill-Treated by City.
Rebellion Against Seizure of Lant
For a Reservoir.

Croton Lake, N. Y, Aug. "a. There is
open rebellion here against ths seizure
CT land by the New York authorities for
the Croton reservoir. Farmers have pro-
3 tested and pleaded and made representa-
tions which seemed absolutely justi1able
to the county assessors concerning the
value of their property, only TO
have their estimates entirely verturned
by the commissioners Of appraisal. An
noyance has given place to declaration
Of war.
Quiet agrioulturists who have not
dreamed for thirty two years of shooting
anything bigger than an occasional quail
or rabbit declare, now, begosh that If
any New Yorker comes on their land To
put them Off OF IL or to make them leave
,heir homesteads they'll put load OF
bucksbot into him.
Chief among these contestants of dity's
right to absorb anything that Ii seer and
may fancy is Hiram Sarles, who owns a
hotel at the north side Of the lake. With.
IN fortnight he was Instructed to aban-
don his house or pay rent to New York
for il.
"I'll DE damned il / do eitherv' do
elared Sarles, "and as this is my house
until you pay for IL, II any one comes
into Ii co disturb my possession Of it, I'll
blow his damned head Oh. ;"
Then Sarles began acoumulatinR shot
guns and within the last few DAYS when
any emissary of the hated commissioners
appeared at the hotel Sarles has taken u
diabolical delight in leading him up TO
the array of guns and informing him that
they are LOADED to shout ducks, but
that they might go off on q commissioner
II he should come this way"
Sarles has distinctly declared that he
will not pay rent for occupying his own
property. The aqueduct officials declare
that II he doesn't he will be evicted. Sarles
says tho officials "dasn't" Tho latter
say that Sarles sells liquor in his hotel.
and that such sale is illegal. Sarles ash $
the pertinent question, ''If you don't sell
liquor. what's the use of hotelg'
There seems TO be reason To believe that
before Saturday determined efforts will
be made to oust Sarles. and II the attempt
Is made there may be few shots with
blank cartridges fired. The officials may
have To do as they did with an old
woman at Purdy's who refused To give
up her house and wouldn't leave il.
Tnereupon tho constables carried her out
in an arm chair, aad she proceeded against
them for assault and trespa SIS.
