sHARKEY IN TRAINING.
The Sailor Pugilist Will Not Take
ANY Chances With Joe Goddard.


Philadelphia. Feb. 5.-Tom Sharkey,
the brawny sailor boy, has established
training quarters in this city. The
roads in and around Paramount park
were fairly burned by the man O. wars
man today, and were he on the eve of
an important championship fight he
would not have trained harder. He was
accompanied by his sparring partner,
Bob Armstrong, and Jack Fogarty OF
this city. While it was the first day OF
training, and fighters usually go 1t
lightly on the start off Sharkey work
ed as hard as though he had been at it
for weeks past, and when he quit Tor
the day his trainers were glad 1t was
all over. He ran nine miles on the road,
wrestled, boxed, skipped the rope,
fought imaginary opponents, and waltzed
to perfect foot work; in fact, he did
enough to kill off a couple of athletes,
but he did not appear to be in the least
tired out when it was all over.
Just why Sharkey was in training
seemed to be a mystery to the knowing
ones of pugilism hereabouts- He Is to
meet Joe Goddard in a limited round
fight in this city on February II, but
no one expected that the man who
whipped Corbett and gave Jeffries such
a hard fight would train so hard for
six round contest with a man that he is
generally supposed to be able to whip
right readily.
why are you in such strict training
was asked of Sharl1ey today.
He replied: you see I never under
estimate a man. I meet Goddard first,
and I expect to whip him, but then you
know this fighting business is today a
game of chance, and Goddard has as
much chance as have, and is likely to
drop me quickly as any one else. |

RULERS OF THE WORLD.
Meat Eating Nations Are Leaders in
Every Branch of Human
Achievement

The ruling nations of the world are
meat eaters, and history records that
they always have been.
Vegetarians and food cranks may ex-
plain this in any way they choose, but
the facts remain that the Americans,
English, French, Russians and Germans
are meat eating nations, and they are
also the most energetic and most pro-
gressive.
The principal food of the heroic Boer
solder. known as biltong, is sort of
dried beef, affording great deal of
nourtshment in highly concentrated
form.
The weak races of people are the rice
eating Chinese, Hindoos, and Siamese,
non progressive, superstitious and infe-
rior physically and mentally to the
meat eating nations who dominate
them.
The structure of the teeth plainly in
dieates that human beings should sub
sist upon a variety Of food, meat, fruit
and grains. and it is unhygienic to con-
fine ones diet to any one of those
classes to the exclusion of another.
Meat is the. most concentrated and
most easily digested of foods, but our
manner of living is often so unnatural
that the digestive organs refuse to
properly digest meat, eggs, and similar
nutritious and wholesome food, but it

some, but the real reason is that the
stomach lacks, from disease or weak
ness, some necessary digestive element
hence arising indigestion and later on,
chronic dyspepsia
Nervous people should eat plenty of
meat, convalescents should make meat
the principal food, hard working people
have to do so and brain workers and
office men should eat, not so much
meat but at least once a day, and to
insure it's perfect digestion one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets should be
taken after each meal, because they
supply the peptones. diastase and fruit
acids, lacking in every case of stomach
trouble.
Nervous dyspepsia, catarrh of stom-
ach, gastritts, sour stomach, gas and
acidity are only different names for in
digestion, the failure to digest whole
some food, and the use of Stuart's Tab
let's cures them all because by affording
perfect digestion the stomach has a
chance to rest and recover its natural
tone and vigor.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is the real
household medicine; 1t is as safe and
pleasant for the stomach ache of the
baby as it is for the imperfect diges-
ton of its grand sire.
They are not a cathartic, but a diges-
tive and no pill habit can ever follow
their use; the only habit Stuart's Tab
let's induce is ths habit of good diges-
ton and consequently good health.

GREAT ODDS.

Frankfort, KY, Feb. Sat last the
threatened blow has fallen upon the
Democratic party of Kentucky.
William Goebel is dead.
The assassin's bullet has done its
work.
For hours Saturday he lay sinking
gradually into the deep sleep that
knows no awakening. He closed his
eyes upon things earthly about o'clock
and after that was kept alive by the
administration Of oxygen. But gradual
ly even that failed and the action Of the
lungs grew weaker and the pulse hut-
tered more and more feebly. At Gas

later before the announcement was
made outside the death chamber A
number of small handbills had been
printed in advance Of the governor 8
death and it was the passing Of one OF
these in the hotel office which brought
the news to most of those outside the
immediate circles Of leaders.
In whispers the tidings spread
through the hotel in few minutes and
there was a general concentration OF
guests around the room where he made
the brave but losing fight for life. There
were q score or more OF women IN the
hotel, wives of the members OF the leg
iSlature, and nearly all of them were In
tears. Although the passing away Of
the leader has been so long expected
and so certainly foretold by the doctors,
It came with a great shock to the little
colony in the hotel which had for five
days and nights hung upon bulleSns
from the sickroon and talked in WhiSp-
ers Of the brave struggle Goebel was
making.
So great did the crowd in the hallway
outside the room become that men were
seated at the head of the stairs to block
the passage and turn back those who
crowded up to learn the particulars Of
the death-bed scene.
GoebeI never awakened after the stu

day afternoon and quietly passed away,
without any particular complications
setting in to hasten death. His sister
was at his bedside. together with the
women who had nursed him so faithful

SUES FOR ONE MILLION.
The o. s. Rubber Company Declare
@. II. Hood Violated His Contract.

New York. Feb. 5.-The United States
Rubber company has brought suit in the
supreme court against George H. Hood of
Boston for 81, 600, 000 The suit grew out
of the consolidation of the Boston Rub
Der company of which Mr.. Hood was
president, with the United States Rubber
company in 1882. At. that time the stipu-
lation was that the interests and the en-
tire attention of Mr. Hood were to be
given to the Consolidated company. It is
claimed that Mr.. Hood invested the
money thus made in company called the
Hood Rubber company and announced
that this money was that of his wife and
children. His business grew to large pro-
portions, it is claimed, so much so that
it hurt the other company.
The suit is brought because of failure
to keep his contract and for the amount
of damage claimed to have been suffered
by the United states Rubber company.

BALD MAY RUN AurooAR.
Cyclist Considers an Offer to Operate
q Motor in Europe.

New York, Feb. 5.-Eddie Bald, the cy-
clist may give up the bicycle for the
automobile. and he now has under consid-
Grafton an offer to operate a motor in
several of the notable road events to be
conducted in Europe the coming season.
1t is said that one reason that prompts the
ex-champion to transfer his efforts to
the mOtOr-propelled cycle is because he
found it so difficult to get into racing
condition last year.
An English company is negotiating with
him and the claim is made that its ma
chimes can travel at the rate of seventy
five miles an hour over the perfect roads
to be found in France. Should Bald ac-
cept the offer he will leave for the other
side early next month, and the first race
in which he will participate will take
place in May.
