JEFFRIEs' ARM IMPROVES.
Proposes to Fight Fitz or Rubin in
August.

New York, July 25.-For the first time
in weeks Jim Jeffries was allowed on
Saturday to take off the steel harness
that has encased his injured left arm.
He hopes to discard it entirely within
day or two and, if by August l he is
satisfied that it is healed. he will issue
a challenge broad enough to accommo-
date any of the heavy weights who have
been clamoring for a fight with him.
Jeffries has been taking it easy at At
lantic City and save for his injured arm
he is in grand shape. He win leave for
Mount Clemens next Thursday, after a
consultation with his manager, Billy
Brady. With a short spell of easy work
at that resort he hopes to get his arm
in as good shape as it ever was. In case
August 1 finds it safe he will issue his
challenge on that date
The bad arm has cost Jeffries a pile
of money, and he knows that to get some
return he will have to fight in this city
before September 1. He is anxious to
battle on August %, if possible, and ex-
pressed on Saturday a preference to
meet the winner of the Fitzsimmons-
Rubin bout,

BRUCE WILL BE LIVELY.
Shelters Will Start Up on Mammoth
Scale About Septemher /.

Pittsburg, July 25.-The little town of
Bruce was for few months one of the
liveliest new towns in this county But
its smelter fires went out and it became
dead as the leaves of autumn.
The people who had moved in expect
ing to find permanent and lucrative en-
pioyment in its mines and smelterS have
hurried away to more promising fields
and but few people are left in the one time
great industrial center.
But Bruce is going to take a fresh
start toward greatness. In about a month
Its industries will be revived and hundreds
of smeltermen and miners will be setting
their faces once more toward Bruce.
Not later than the middle of Septem-
Der the local interests. both smelling and
mining Will be started up again on a
larger scale than when in operation be-
lore and with every assurance of perma-
nence. The storm of a. couple of months
ago put a stop to preparations then being
made to start. and did so much damage
to both the old construction and the new
constructions then under way. that it set
matters away back. But there is now a
certainty that the company interested in
smelling and mining at Bruce has am
pie capital to make its plans successful
and that this company means to build
vast rolling mills in this field

Independence, July 25.-w. B. Dobbs
and T. w. Overman. of Marion, Ind, are
here negotiating with the business men
for a bonus of $4,000 for the establish
ment of a glass factory, to be brought
here from Marion.
The negotiations are about ready to be
closed, as a number of capitalists have
subscribed from $500 to $1,000 each. The
factory will employ 100 workmen, and is
attracted to this city by the abundant
supply of natural gas and quality of
sand near here. of which bottles and
other rough glass goods can be made
This point is also nearer the fine sand
beds of Missouri than Marion, which is
an important factor.

THIRST FOR GOLD.
outweighs Everything Else at Cape
Nome.

Washington. July 25.-Surgeon Gen
eral Sternberg received a report today
from Surgeon r. G. Ebert of the army,
dated Nome harbor, Alaska, June 20,
which gives details of the conditions
existing at that place. He says that
within two or three weeks the popula-
ton has increased from 200 to 10000,
with tents and buildings irregularly To-
Gated along the beach. The sanitary
conditions were crude in the first place,
and with the influx of the new popula-
ton became worse. He describes hor-
rible condition existing, as there is no
method of cleaning up the town and no
provision for the destruction of accu-
mutations of garbage and filth. The
thirst for gold existing among the peo-
pie who have gone to Nome City out
weighs everything else, and no atten-
ton is paid to sanitary conditions Re
ports of the cases of enteric fever vary
from 175 to 700. There have been 10
cases of smallpox and one DEATH

Cleveland, o.. July 25.-A worlds rec
ord was made at the Chenille trotting
track when the black gelding Coney.
by Mckinney, paced the second heat of
a race in 2:02A. This is the fastest
mile ever paced by a horse in hopples.
Frank Bogash has held the record for
three years at 2:041z. 1t was the sec
ond heat in the 2:o6 race. Prince
Alert took the lead at the start and
held it to the half, which was covered
in 1;O01a. Then McHenry began to
push Coney, who was four lengths be-
hind the leader. AT the three-quarters,
which was made in 1:31%, he had
caught Prince Alert and he was going
so fast that McHenry pulled him down,
and he logged under the wire an easy
winner.

Seems to Have Benefited the Giants
New FORKS Were "SoIdiering."
New York, July 25.-Excuses and ap-
peals for sympathy will avail the New
York nine no more this season. If ever
a team of baseball players made out
clear case against itself the local aggre-
cation succeeded in doing it by the ad-
mirable manner in which they played
against Cincinnati Brooklyn and St
Louis No doubt exists in the minds of
nine-tenths of the patrons of the sport
that some of the New York men did not
give their best services to the team when
Buck Ewing was manager. This is plain
enough for a blind man to almost see.
Instead of moping around the field,
dawdling on the bases, perfunctorily go
ing through the necessary motions at
bat, and fielding in a listless manner
suggestive of a small boy at work on the
famlly woodpile when the remainder of
his chums are in swimming, the Giants
have played with the snap and dash
characteristic of their work early in the
year.

New York, July 25-John Reagan, of
Brooklyn, last night defeated Clarence
Forbes, of Chicago. in the twentieth
round before the Seaside Sporting club

it was a hot set-to. Forbes sent the
Brooklyn boy to the floor twice in the
first four rounds. Reagan then fresh
ened up and kept even with Forbes,
giving smash for smash. Toward the
fifteenth round Forbes seemed to be
firing, and Reagan gave him swing
on the nose that brought the blood
Both men kept going fiercely to the
end of the bout in the twentieth round,
when the referee awarded the decision
to Reagan.

SORES AND
ULCERS

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood IS in poor condition is
sluggish, weak and unable to throw off
the pOiSonS that accumulate in it. The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and all impurities eliminated from the sys-
tenn SIS. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
the system "A CONSTANT DRAIN

When this has been accomplished the dis

BURGLARS QUEST.
He Failed in an Effort to Get Pauline
HALLS Jewelry.

A burglar attempted to break into the
room occupied by Pauline Hall, the
comic opera and vaudeville star, in st.
Joseph last night, presumably in the
quest of Jewelry. Miss Hall is in Tope-
ka. today with the other members of the
Frincis Wilson Opera company.
Attempted thefts of jewelry owned by
actress have come to be looked upon
as clever advertising matter. But aside
from the fact that Pauline Hall is pro-
badly well enough known to get along
without free advertising, she is not the
one who tells the story of the burglary.
Miss Hall was at the theater when the
attempt to enter her room was made,
and did not know of it until one of the
other members of the company told her
about it this morning.
Miss Halls room was on the first floor
in the rear OF the hotel. About 10 o'clock
the proprietor heard a noise as if some
one was climbing over the outbuildings
in the rear of the house, and went back
to investigate. He discovered a man
in the act of prying open a window to
Miss Halls room. The burglar discov-
cred the proprietor about the same
time. and made a hasty retreat to the
accompaniment of several pistol shots
engineered by the hotel man.
Miss Hail is particularly remembered
in this territory because of her reported
connection with the Hobson kissing
bee in Kansas City last year.

WITNESSES AGREE
That Treatment of Miners at Warden
Was Outrageous.

Washington, Feb. 24-The house com
mittee on military affairs today con-
tinued the investigation of the Idaho
labor riots. Mr.. Stinson continued his
narrative begun on yesterday on the
treatment he received while under ar
rest
The committee decided to subpoena
Gen. COrbin and Capt. Bennett of the
army, to get from them certain features
of the action of the military authorities
while on duty in Idaho.
Ransom Miller, night Waterman at
one of the mines near the scene of the
disturbance, testified that he was ar
rested without process and without
charges although he had been in the
hospital at the time of the blowing
up of the Bunker Hill mine. He de-
tailed incidents in the bull pen" At
one time, he said, a colGred soldier had
threatened to shoot him for some tri-
fling infractiOn and on another occa-
sion the corporal of the guard had an
nounced with obscene oaths and with
a pistol in his hand that he would
shoot the first man caught smoking.
The witness described the arrange
ment of the prisons and the vileness
resulting from the inability of the hun
dreds on the upper floor to get ade-
quate sanitary appliances.
The committee adjourned until Mon
day, when the witness will continue his
testimony.
