SPORTING COMMENT.

NJ. Jean Dc Reszkef the opera singer,
Is about to gather one OF the greatest
stables of thoroughbreds in Europe. It
is the singers ambition to be the owner
Of a string OF runners capable OF win
ming the, grand turf events OF the Old
World. lie Will spend a great sum Of
money to further his ambition and will
get the best American Jockey he can
securc to ride his horses. In an inter-
view NJ. DE Reszke} said: Before re-
turning home I hope to secure proml-
rent American, Jockey TO ride my horses
in The large stake races OF Europe. In
which l intend to take considerable in
tcrest next season. Like many others
abroad, l have come to the conclusion
that the old English style OF riding Is
outclassed by the. American style"
The case of Jem Hall, the Australian
pusilist, now suffering from an airec-
ton of the lungs, which. 1t is said, must
Inevitably result in his death, is one by
no means uncommon among the ranks
OF the nstic fraternity. Joe Coburn,
Johnny Dwyer. Pat Killen, Jack Demp-
sey and many other former lighta OF the
ring passed over to the great majority
from the same cause which threatens
to cut short Halls days on this terres-
trial sphere. Over-training and dissl-
patton are usually held to be the chief
agents in winding up the average box
er's career. Also, an athlete In condi-
ton. like prima donna in opera. Is Pc
culiarIy liable to colds. and colds neg
ected or enhanced by a spree are the
prolific parents OF consumption. The
lungs OF the pugilist may be well de-
veloped by the running and walking he
must do, but this will not strengthen
them against the attacks OF disease.
They are every bit as sensitive as the
lungs of the ordinary iayman. The re-
action from training weakens the sys-
TEN and makes It an easy victim to
various complaints.

Charlton, March 13.-(Special.l-
The people OF Charlton are looking Tor
a speedy settlement of the English
Boer war, now that one of their citi-

for its termination. Rev. S. b. Merrill,
"a school teacher and author, has been
pondering over what he calls .'the need
less and extravaganza loss of human life
and expenditure of money!" until lie
has resolved to see if he cannot III
some manner stop .'the cruel and in
human war in South Africa. Accord
ingly he sits down and writes a per-
sonal letter to President Mckinley, KIT
Washington, praying him to use his
good Office as president of the United
States to intervene and put an end to
the war, and also another one 10 Queen

folly and eXtrayagant loss of lives
and treasure in her effort to quell the

not be selected atsthis convention. That
will be done at the regular state con
vention to nominate state officers,
which will be held probably about Au-
gust 1. The first convention was put
at a late date at the request of Sena-
tor Allison and the rest of the Iowa
delegation in congress, so that the pol.
icy in regard to Porto Rico and the
Philippines may be as nearly developed
as possible before the convention is
held.
Robert G. Cousins, congressman from
Fifth district and member Of the
committee on foreign relations, will
be temporary chairman. The other tenn.
porary officers will be: Secretary.
Harry Lamphere, of Grinnell; reading
secretaries, f. Z. Ferris, of Sioux City.
and A. v. Proudfoot. of Indianola;
sergeant-at-arms, Colonel Dan Closer
Of Dubuque; doorkesper, James FL

Candidates for delegates to the ma.
tional convention are very scarce. Fol
delegates-at-large the names now mos,

river and viii use their individnalsand

Joliet is growing daily more pleased
with the new canal, which has purified
the river water, but the business men
are anxious to see the full volume Of
water turned on, If only for a few
days, in order to determine exactly
what the effect would be and what
must be remedied. The volume OF wa

canal has been steadily increased from
day to day, and is being worked grad
ually toward the legal flow.
The gates at Lockport are omen wild

cubic feet a minute to pass. The ice
has almost entirely left the stream.

DAMAGED RT FLOOD.
Wagon Bridge at Wapello Wrecked
Yesterday.

Wapello, March a. The second
span of the wagon bridge from the
west shore, crossing the Iowa river, at
this place was thrown in the river
yesterday BY the enormous amount Of
ice, which almost ruined the pier. The
first alarm was the falling rocks from
the pier, and finally a large cake of
ice split the pier letting the span fall
into the river. The other part of the
pier still,stands and on it is suspended
the largest span across the river. It is
thought the pier will stand unless
more ice comes, which would soon
crumble it4away and let the other span
into the river. ~
Sometime during the night the river
was gorged by ice, and IL began to rise
until it was higher than it was ever
known to be. At this point the water
was within six feet of the floor of the
bridge. The bottoms north Of town
resembled a large lake and the road to
the hogback bridge vas completely
cut off.
