RIGHT CROSS
Claims BE Was Corbett's Press Agent
For Which He Wants Paw.

T.ouisviIIe. XIV. Nov. 6-George sier
has received a letter from Paul ARA
strong, the we1l-known New York hstic
critic. who sails under the nom de plume
of Right Cross, stating that he has
brought suit against ex-Champion James
J. Corbett, and the case viii come up in
court at Boston on Saturday
Right Cross claims that he acted as
Corbett's press agent during the time
that Jim trained for his fight with Kid
Mccoy at Bath Beach, and declared that
he never received a cent in return for his
services, although he was promised some
thing like $400.
Armstrong says that at first he felt sure
that the Mccoy COrbett fight was on the
square but of late has become convinced
that Corbett IS a faker.
Armstrong and Corbett were formerly
warm personal friends, but are now bitter
enemies.

SMOOTH JIM ooRBETr
Goes Up Against a Willy Jap and
Loses an Argument.

New York, Nov. e.-J. J. O'Brien and K.
Inoue, pair who have been giving eXhi-
bition Of the unique "Jiu Jitsu' self-de-
tense at the New York theater, worked
their tricks on Corbett at Woods gym
nasiurn this afternoon.
The proposition was that Corbett
equipped with gloves. should be permitted
to box against the odd and weird holds
of the Orient.
The affair terminated with Corbett hav-
ing a wholesome respect for the light
finger grips and wrist turns that make big
men writhe- The Jap sent the pugiiist to
his back on the mat with a twist of the
hand. Later Corbett was invited to stran-
gle the Jap, and a rope was tied about
the fatter's neck. BY a manipulation of
neck muscles entirely Inoue was enabled
to resist the ropes construction, despite
the pugilists full strength.

THIS JAIL IS FULL.
Arkansas City Bastile Has a Surplus
of Prisoners.

Arkansas City, Nov. 6.-At present the
county jail is quite well filled and pro-
badly has more prisoners in it than any
county Jail in the state. Lately the most
stringent methods have been in use for
safety. Threats have freely been made
and there is a particularly tough crowd
in the Jail. Since the Jail break of q
few days ago the men have been very
uneasy, and have talked a good deal
about getting out. The officers are US
ing the greatest kind of care on this ac-
count. Every day each prisoner is strip
ped and searched. His bed and every
inch of his cell is carefully looked over,
and it would be almost impossible to Sc
crete anything inside the cells without
the officers finding it.

cans made a brilliant finish to a very
thorough campaign at the opera house
here last night. The house was badly
crowded. and many failed to hear the ex-

and introduced Congressman BOWersock,
who spoke for half an hour then left to
make a speech at a Eudora meeting.

campaign speech. Judge G. O. Smart was
the last speaker.
The fusion campaign was closed here
last night with speeches by Ex-Governor
Leedy and Mayor Reed, of Kansas City.
Music hall was crowded and the speeches
were both good. Mr.. Leedy spoke of
''sham prosperity" claiming that the
trusts were reaping the benefits. Mayor
Reeds eloquence took well with the aud
fence, and he was literally applauded.
Buch's military band furnished music and
led the crowd to the hall.

was something almost pathetic about

street trolley. She might have been
matronlyand dignifed; she preferred to
be as girlish as circumstances over
which she had no control would allow.
And because >of that foolish desire on
her part came her downfall. The
little boy on the seat beside her was
plainly restless. Finally he leaned
over and whispered in her ear. What
ever it was seemed to arouse her fears
and her anger equally. She shook
her finger and her head at him and
gave him whispered reproof that re-
suited in the shrill whine of spoiled
child. A moment later he climbed up
and made second whispered appeal,
which was met by a second demonstra-
ton of wrath. Then the whine grew

hard to keep up the appearance Of ar
ti6cial youth almost had aconyulsion.
She grabbed the email boy BY the arm
and started to drag him off the car
with her, while the remainder Of the
passengers suppressed their smiles
with varying degrees of success. The

ing Appearances.
This story Is told in Denver of q man
who was once leading merchant
there. In the early; days OF the city
he walked Its streets, out Of work and
money. He was poorly clad, but neat
and clean. He sought employment
from a prosperous grocer and snid he
was willing to do anything. The mer-
chant at length sent him into his cei-
lar to clean out a room SO foully dirty
that many a common laborer had re.
fused to enter It When the young
man appeared In the evening, he was
as neat in his appearance as he had
been In the morning. or course the
merchant thought he had done little or
nothing. But when he saw the cellar,
clean and fresh, he said to the young
man:
you've not only shown that you are
willing to work, but also that you have
some respect for yourself. guess I'll
give you job"
This young man, who In few years
became the head of the selfsame busi-
ness, realized the important fact that
the worker is often scrutinized as close
ly as his work.
1t is q mans duty toward his fellow
man to dress as well as he can afford
to. Nowhere In nature does the poorly
dressed man find any excuse for his
lack Even the lowest forms Of animal
and plant life are clothed In pleasing
colors.
Reptiles crawl In richly mottled
