CARSON, New, March 4.-Assembly-
man Timothy Dempsey Of Carson is still
wrlggling nnder the public fire for having
eau ed to be drawn up bill asking the
Legislature to appropriate money Tor the
purchase of a championship belt to te pre-
sented to the winner of the Corbett-Fitz-
simmons f. BIT.
Although Dempsey would like to con-
vince his friends that he was not serious
about the affair still he has to admit that
he had the bill in his pocket and came
near introducing ii last Tuesday. Demp-
sey denies that he signed any statement
for publication in which he is made TO say
that he never caused such bill to be
drawn up.
In connection with the belt story the
Nevada State Journal, published at Reno,
took occasion in Its issue OF yesterday to

says: sin order to scoop the com bine the
boys worked scheme day or two ago
and had bill prepared in regular form
approprating the sum of $4,000 for the
purchase of a cham pion belt to be pre-
sented to the winner from the Silver
State. Timothy Dempsey, representative
of Ormsby County, had been selected 10
introduce the bill. OF course it was ex-
pected the bill would meet with immedi-
ate opposition and possibly be rejected on
its first reading, but the boys simply
wanted to write up a story that the exclu-
sive Monarch had not discovered, and
the scheme worked we'll and was tele-
graphed.
The Chronicle, CALL, New York Herald
and other papers came out the next morn
ing with important fight news, and the
Examiner ournal did not have line.
Their representatives were wild. They
made rush for Dempsey and persuaded
him not to introduce the pill, AID wanted
him 10 sign a statement that he never
had the bill and that he had no intention
of ntrod ucing such measure. He con-
sented to the first proposition. but refused
to sign statement.
The Examiner men worked on him un-
I'll late last night, but he stood firm and
would not put his name to anything. The
boys had succeeded in making their scoop,
however, and gave bit of news that the

Stanford was more successful in the Sec

In the third the Santa Claras filled the

WHY FOOD Is COOKED

Speaking Of cooking in its relation to health THE
iome DOCTOR says: Food Is cooked to render It
more agreeable to sense of taste and smell Cook
Ing develops havors and odors not present in the
raw state. and 1t facilitates the process of masti-
cation. Some foods tough and hard and can
neither be finely divided nor well mixed with
saliva Again. 1t Is often desirable that the food be
chemically changed; thus some foods portions
OF them are absolutely indgestble in the nncooked
state fourth reason for cooking food Is that
the warmth which Is thus impaired promotes d.
gestion by causing an increased flow of blood to
the digestive apparatus. and hence a more copious
secretion OF the digestive finds Finally cooking
destroys any parasites that may be present I'm the
