how one Butte boys ingenuity made
him stake in the Klondlka country.
Roy r. Reed, a Meadervll!, clerk, left
Butte in July, 1897, for the gold regions
of the rorth. He used his thinking
apparatus to such good purpose that
of weeks ago, he was able to take unto
himself bride. who will go back 10
the frozen north with him to help work
good claim, or an interest IN one,
which is one of the assets % his ability
to scheme to advantage.
When young Mr.. Reed reached Alas
ka his store of available cash was none
too big but he used it to good advdnt-
age. and it coon began to grow. On
Chilcoot pass he found it was ton late
to get through that season. so he join
ed stampede to Walsh creek, where
an excitement sprang up at that time.
The Walsh Creek bubble bursted about
the time he got there and he was COM
PEELED to retrace his steps. He eXper-
fenced all the hardships incident to
such trips in an unsettled region. and
got back to Dyea in even shorter cir
cumstances than he reached there from
the states, having had to kill one CT
his three dogs because it got the els
temper and another to feed the remain
ing dog, and the last three days of the
trip he himself went without food
Reaching Dyea, something had to be
done, so he set to work trading over the
trail from Dyea to the lakes. By the
time the route to Dawson opened in
the spring, he had increased his capital
till he felt In fairly comfortable circum-
stances, considering, and it being time
about for scheme to make some mon
ey when he reached Dawson. The plan
he adopted was a novel one. Procur-
ing three dogs and the necessary sleds
to haul his outfit on, he purchased a
14-foot canvass boat. in which to make
the trip down the river Then he laid
in a stock in trade. 1t consisted of
case Of sc dozen eggs, case of 800 lem
ons, 500 newspapers of the latest date to
arrive before his departure, 10 maya
zines, and a 7-pound butt of chewing
tobacco. All this he packed on his sleds.
and on April 90 set out alone. He sled
ded with his dog team down the lakes
on the ice. On reaching the Yukon, he
encountered an ice jam and had to lay
up two days, during which another par
ty caught up with him, who had left
Dyea two days later than he, and CAL
ried a big supply of papers Of CORE
spondingly later date. Becoming ac-
quainted with the fact, young Reed
knew if the party got in the same time
he did there would be no sale for his
papers. Providence and a determine
ton not to be outdone, saved the day.

HARD HITTING BOXERS
IN AMATEUR BOUTS
The San Francisco Athletic Clubs
Regular Monthly Exhibition
Gives Promise of Usual
Exciting Sport.

The absence of the bookmakers and
other followers of the turf is noticeable
in the decreased attendance at the big
boxing meetings these summer months.
This does not apply to the exhibition of
the San Francisco Athletic Club, as
month in and month out the number of
spectators is limited only by the capacity
Of the gymnasium on Sixth street.
The programme for tonight is made up
of five eight-round bouts. each pair of
boxers being especially selected in order
to prepare against any insists. Alex
Greggains is the official referee. He has
incorporated in the Queensberry rules
some ideas of his own which seem to
bring out all the combativeness of the
boxers.
The men matched for tonight are: Kid
johnson and Jack Mcmahon, 125 pounds;
Ben Lewis and w. Ingham, AS pounds
Jack Dean and Ed Toy, 1873 pounds; Tom
Monihan and Joe Kane, $50 pounds, and
George Dodson and James Crawford. AS
it is the exception to have an ,uninter-
esting bout, this fine bunch of boxers
should show excellent sport. Being in the
embryo state, they have no regulations
as fighters to lose. and will mix matters
in a hearty manner.

of the list. The claim is raised that, the
element of hard luck has had much to
do with this deplorabie state of affairs
That is rankest nonsense. At the begin
ming of the season there was not a more
promising team in the league than EW-
ings bunch, but he has ruined it by too
much leniency. A few words of praise
for good work has swelled some of the
men so that they have got it into their
heads that all they have to do is to walk
out on the diamond and pose: They want
out delay. Then an element of discorC
has been injected, which, If not promptly
suppressed, will disrupt the team com;
pletely and work irreparable injury to the
game. Manager Ewing is aware of the
source of this discord and he should weed
it out without a moments delay. 1t does
not comprise the best players, and even
if il did it would be better to get rid OF
them than to let them continue to have
full swing. Ewing is away just now and
the process of partially reorganizing the
team has been left to Ed Johnson and
Fred Lange. For a starter. they have re-
leased Russell and Mcclure, two moves
that could not be worse. Russell was Inn
mediately snapped up by futile, who will
find him a worthy successor to Donlin.
Russell is lazy Ghe ball player never

there were enough mdgets in the team
without him. What ought. to have been
done was to place Hardie at first and send
Mcclure into the field. for a time at least.
Mcclure is terrific batter ordinarily, and
1t was not to be expected that he could
get into the game after two years alb
sence and hit it out at the start. Hardie
could play the initial position second to

RIVAL BASEBALL
LEAGUE PROMISED
There Will Be Competition Next Year
at st. Louis, Chicago, New
York and PHILADELPHIA.

. ST. LOUIS. June 2S-The Post-Dispatch
to-day printed this: A we'll known base
ball man of ST. Louis said this morning:
"A story comes from Chicago to the eff
feet that a new association on the lines
of the American Association IS to be
formed, the National League folks being
in with the play AS a matter of fact,
the Chicago story is the first bluff sent
out by the National League to head off
movement that has been on foot for some
time, and which means that the National
League is to have competitor in all its
leading cities. The National League to-
day Is a house divided against itself.
Freedman, and Soden and Rogers have a
thorough contempt for Hart and the Rob
insOns, and the feeling is reciprocated by
the latter trio.
There is planning and sCheming on all
sides and out of II next year Will come a
rival association to the present National
League This, in fact. will be the last
year that any set of men Will have
mortgage on the national game, and there
will be rival clubs in every city in the
National League where the patronage will
warrant anything of the kind Four cities
certain to have competition next year are
St. Louis, Chicago, New York and Phla-
delphia
THE new association will have nothing
in common with the National League syn
dictate. and its motto will be, Down with
syndicate baseball and death to the sav-
ish reserve rule In St. Louis the men
ba ok of the new association have already
secured grounds thirty-four blocks nearer
the center of the city than those now oc-
cupied by the present St. Louis club"

LOS ANGELES PEOPLE
TO WELCOME IEFFRlES
Preparing a Big Celebration for the
Homecoming of the Cham
nion PuOi1iSt

Los ANGELES. June 2S.-The Jeffries
family is in good humOr to-day. as word
has been received from the champion
pugilist that on or about July 13 he will
step into Los Angeles to enjoy a quiet
rest for a week upder the parental roof
on the Arroyo Seco. This information
also is to the effect that Jeffries will
leave Kansas City tonight and that he
may arrive in San Francisco July s. after
giving boxing exhibitions en- route in
Denver and Salt Lake City. The sport
ing fraternity here, under the leadership
of John Brink, is preparing a reception
for the champion at the athletic club.
1t has not been decided on what date
he will give a sparring exhibition, but ad
mirers of the champion tonight insist
that the largest hall in the city must
be secured to accommodate the crowd
The chara cter of the reception a the club
will be informal. permitting every one
to clasp the hand that gave the antipo-
dean his quietUs.
While the mother of Jeffries is modestly
proud of her big boy, she recognizes that
in taking on Sharkey during October and
in Jims sailing for Europe late in July
the lad has entered the prize ring
to stay and that he will make fighting
his business. The greatest regret that
the Jeffries mention is that they cannot
see Jim until a late date in his new role
in the drama, The Rough Riders that
is being written for the champion.

WACHENDORF A DRUG FIEND.
Erratic Doctor May Have Caused
Kehlenbeck' Death I'm
Intentionally

1t appears that DR.. C. C. J. Wachen-
dorf. who is suspected of causing THE
death of John Kehlenbeck. is a monoma-
MAC on the subject of drugs. According
to DR.. Latta. former superintendent of
the. San Joaquin Hospital at Stockton.
Wachendorf while an inmate of that in
stitution was always trying to induce his
cane.
Dr. Latta also says Wachendorf was in
the habit of taking from half a pound to
a pound of ether at time, inhaling it
until he fell asleep. Wachendorf said he
acquired the drug habit in experimenting
on himself.
On several occasions it is said the err
atic physician has been found in the
back room of a saloon stupefied by some
drug. generally ether. Whether Kehlen-
beck was a victim of Wachendorf's alb
normal desire to experiment with drugs
on others or whether he was deliberately
murdered for few hundred dollars time
alone will tell.
