MORE CROOKED WORK.
Tom Sharkey Denounces O'Rourke His
Former Manager

NEW YORK, October 26-Sailor
Sharkey today let out a grilling blast
on his former manager Tom O'Rourke,
and incidentally threw some additional
light on the crooked methods of fight
ers and their promoters, first made
manifest as the result of the domestic
troubles of Corbett and Mccoy. ShAr-
keys roast Is in reply to O'Rourke's
charges that the sailor quit in his fight
with Fitzsimmons, and is afraid to
fight Walcott.
"O'Rourke," says Sharkey sis one of
the most ungrateful beings living.
After made barrel of money for him
which he never deserved, he abuses me
and gives out statements that do not
contain a word of truth. He could not
tell the truth if he wanted to. He is the
faker not I. After my fight with JEFF
fries at Coney Island O'Rouke came to
me and assured me a return match of
six rounds providing 1 would quit in the
third.
81 told ORouke did not care to be
party to such a scheme to deceive the
public. O'Rouke said the public was not
to be considered, as there would be
plenty of money made out of the affair.
This is the man who says / quit with
Fitzsimmons. When l fought Rubin

HOME FROM NOME-BUsTED.

SEATTLE, October 26.-With decks

and a few sad eyed women, the big
Government Transport Lawton pulled

$50 of those who were recently ac-
counted the destitute of Nome City.
Starting northward in the early spring
with buoyant hopes and dreams of
golden wealth in the far stretching
sands of Nome, they return by the
grace of a generous Government, which
now extends it's protection TO further
prevent their humiliation. No names
of those returning free are given out.

CHAMBERLAIN'S PAIN BALM
CURES OTHERS Will NOT YOU?

My wife has been using Chamberlain's
Pain Balm, with good results, for a
lame shoulder that has panied her con-
tinually for nine years. We have tried
all kinds of medicines and doctors with
out receiving any benefit from any of
them. One day we saw an advertise
ment of this medicine and thought of
trying 1t, which we did with the best OF
satisfaction. She has used only one
bottle and her shoulder is almost well.

QUEEN OF AUSTRALIA.
Victoria May Be Asked to Assume a
New Title.

SYDNEY, ~ S. W., October 2S.-Wil-
liam st. John Lynne, premier and trea-
surer of New South Wales, during a
speech at the opening of German fete
here today, said:
1.-THE temper of the Australian people
was never so affectionate toward the
mother country as it is now. The war
in South Africa has produced a patrio-
tic bond which should last eternally.
1t has been suggested locally that her
Majesty should assume the title OF
Queen of Australia. To me 1t seems a
good proposal. Indeed, think her
Majesty might well be approached with
view to her assumption of the title of
Empress of the British Empire, thus
embracing all the colonies and depend

CLUB AGAINST CHIsEL.
A Fight at the U. s. Transport Port
Stephens.

Officer Thomas Merins and a Chinese
from the transport Port Stephens had a
lively fight this morning on the wharf,
the officer being badly cut up by a
chisel in the hands of the Chinaman
Merins was on watch as a special officer
to see that the Chinese on the vessel did
not come ashore. Tong See Chong came
over the railing and Merins grabbed
him to take him back.
The Chinaman made stab at Merins
with the chisel and made a cash in his
cheek. Merins club came out and Tong
got a blow over the head, but he was
game. He came at Merins again and
stabbed him in the side and then on the
hip.
BY this time Merins had decidedly
bloody appearance and Tong's head was
likewise well marked. The second mate
came down the gangway and stopped
the fight and police Captain Flint ap-
peared on the scene. Tong was taken
to the police station.

overtaken the artist. It was not the

only the lap dog. The doctor pocketed
his pride and most zealously attended

the end OF the year he sent in his
bill, but among the items there was
none for attendance OF a dog. Nine.

Gently q terrific wind and rain storm

When this storm came upon the
farmers who cultivate the corn over

q Chicago concern which is controlled
by Mr.. Roseboom. Conservative esti-
mates place the rise IN price at 5
cents per pound, which would net a
profit Of 100000 to the Roseboom
company. The indications point to a
higher rise, and II is considered by
experts that the profits will easily
reach the $1,000, 900 mark for this
season alone.
For 80 years Mr.. Roseboom has beer
