ager of Tom Sharkey, and the sailor,
anent the proposition that Sharkey
accept Joe Walcott's challenge to fight
anybody, has created not a little in
terest in sporting circles.
Here are some of the bon mots that
the manager throws at Sharkey in a
public letter he has issued:
"Walcott is ready to fight Tom
Sharkey any old way and any mum,
ber of rounds from six up, and at
any place he may choose. Or, If he
Is on the level, and means to bet
$1,000 that he can whip Walcott in
six rounds, my money goes. What Is
the use of bluffing about wanting to
meet Rubin after the trimming he late
ly received at Ruhlin's hands? 1t
was no 'huke' punch which he gave to
him, and 1t is my opinion that Rub,
lin or anybody else today can jab his
head off"
BURKE WAS DREAMING.
Jack Burke, Jim Popp's manager
after returning to his home in Canada
made IL terrible howl in reference to
the decision against Popp In his con.
test with Art Simms in this city. The

over Popp In 20 rounds. Burke says
Popp won easily, and that they had
to stand for Mcbride or lose the match
George Tuohey manager of Slmms
runs the club, according to Burke, and
Popp had no chance to win. He SAYS
Mcbride borrowed revolver before
he rendered his verdict In the last

things, that ono round was cut short

MORE MONEY DID IT.

There is much talk of the pros
perity that has come. A short while
ago the panic was on US. Business
was clogged, AMI money was scarce.
1t was locked up. The democrats, IN
the Chicago platform, sought as a rem
edy the restoration of silver as basic
money. They we're defeated. The
gold supply was short. and a money
famine looked US in the face,
But this condtiOn--sIlver defeated
and the gold supply inadequate to the
demands of the country-caused a
search for gold. Explorers went into
every corner and searched every posi-
bic avenue. Success came with the eff
fort. and immense discoveries Of gold
was the reward. More gold was discov-
cred in a short while after the Bryan
and Mckinley campaign than was eX-
pected by the democrats TO come from
gold and silver both. This discovery
this increase of money, putting all the
wheels of industry in motion, relieving
the situation, stopping the panic and
restoring confidence, vindicates the
underlying principles of the Chca
go platform. 1t was not the gold
standard that performed the miracle
and brought prosperity, but the discov.
cry of such vast quantities of gold
taking the place of the silver demand
ed by the platform.
The Chicago platform has thus been
yindicated. The demand, at last, was
for more money. More money came;
not as demanded, but in manner un-
foreseen by all parties. ALI men who
review the situation will see that
T3ore money did it; more money es-
tablished confidence and turned money
loose. 1t broke the panic.
The work of the democrats IN the
Chicago convention was not in vain.
Gold discoveries amended the silver
plank and turned it into gold. More
money wrought the change.

ADUL TERATjONS IN FOOD.

The Business Magazine, published at
Knoxville, Tenn. calls attention to
some startling Information presented
by the report of the United States sem
ate committee on it's investigation into
food authorizations. The committee
finds that the evil of adulteratiOn is
widespread anC on the increase Cocoa
and prune stones are sold as spice {;
more than half the jellIes examined
were made of glucose and starch paste
colored with artificial coloring and
favored with artificial hayoring and
preserved with salioylic acid. rhe

of tomatoes, artficIally COlored and
preserved with salicyhc acid. Con-
corning temperance drinks, it was
shown that one glass of raspberry soda
had sufficient analine dye to color a
piece Of flannel five inches square.
Business competition and the de-
mand for cheap wares" says our
Knoxville contemporary, "have led
manufacturers to put such adulterated
products on the market labeled as
pure goods; and the stOmachs of Ignor-
ant and unsuspecting people are loaded
daily with poisonous and indigestible
matter. There is an excellent opening
at this time for manufacturers who
offer large rewards to any chemist
who discovers any adulteration in the
articles they produce. The argument
will probably be advanced in reply to
this assertion that twO-thirds of the
consumers IN this country Will buy the
adultorated articles anyway in order
to economic (?), but this can be met
by the statement that the maaufact-
urers Offering such rewards as pros
posed would make their products pop
ular with the other third, and give the
'economizers' an opportunity to dis
cover the error of their ways, and to
act wisely by exchanging a quantity of
useless and harmful stuff for lighter
diets and health>gIying qualities"
