Bud Gillette of the Buckfoot
Gang Very Fleet.
Is Said to Be One of the Swift.
est Of Sprinters.
CANNOT BE TRUSTED.
Once Sold His Father Out-Was
Driven From Home.
Description Of the Greatest
Races of His Career.

Osawatomie, Kan. Dec. 6.-The
Graphic relates some interesting remi-
niscences of the early career of Bud
Gillette, the foot racer who has lately
become SO prominent through doubtful
methods.
There is little question, says the
Graphic, that he is the f1eetest sprinter
in America and there is less doubt that
he is one of the smoothest swindlers
in the world. He was brought up near
Virgil, Kan, where he gained a local
reputation as a sprinter. He easily won
over all competitors and the sporty
deniZens of the Verdigris valley made
all kinds of m oney betting him. He
made short tours of that part of the
state, winning wherever he went.
He had a track arrangement at his
home where he ran against all corners
and in course of time. as the sporting
drift grew professional pugilist
drifted into the little village and began
giving lessons in boxing. Other form
of sport followed and in time the Sec
ton of country around about Virgil
was rife with the sporting spirit. So
strong did it become that we saw a
pugilist Fitzgerald in a contest for
points one evening, and Mr.. School
Teacher was anxious to get into the
contest himself. And we think he could
have given a good account of himself
in the squared circle, too.
The sporting excitement in and about
Virgil eliminated in the fall of 1894
when a race was matched with STAINS
berry Of Columbus, Kan. 1t came off
on the track at Virgil. The betting men
around there had won stakes of money
on Gillette, but they were separated
from it that day in a way that was en-
tirely new and strange to them. Sew
eral m inOr races were run and some
boxing contests were pulled off. All
the time the betting men were getting
their money up. Two men guarded the
stakes with revolvers. Stansberry's
manager climbed up into a wagon and
covered all offers on Gillette.
The money came rapidly. Men mort
gagged their teams to get money to put
up. They almost fought to get to the
wagon before the stranger would get
all his money up. At one time he quit
for a while and the fellows that had
not succeeded in placing their money
were downcast But he soon reappear-
ed and they were happy again. Final
ly when all the money was up the race
was run and throwed. Gillette allowed
Stansberry to get away ahead of him
and failed to overtake him. Then there
was storm scene. Gillettes father who
had plunged heavily cursed him and
ordered him off the place The Column

JIM CoRBETT TALKS.
Tells Some Interesting Facts About

Indianapolis, Dec 6-James J. Corbett

niscences of personal experiences. Cor
bett has no set lines, but talks extern
poraneously, and he says of his work:
Il have never written line of my
stuff. I simply have the jokes in my
head and reel them off as fast as they
come into my mind. 1 think this makes
one more natural. One who commits
verything to memory often drops into
a rut and loses his Individuality Cor
bett says his original appearance along
theatrical lines was at the Academy of
Music for the benefit of the Women's

it, and then every dog fight that hap

Some one stole the dog and she was
found in the hands of a tough in one

CANCER

I Sufferers from this horrible ma1ady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its ap-
pearance- or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perna-
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
of it driven out. This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often in small way, as the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows ::
A small oimple came my jaw about an inch
below the on the left side of my face. It gave

ANOTHER SANTA FE RUMoR.

Road" Mrs. Rickert was the builder
of the railroad.
1t is said that the Santa F'e in getting
control of this concern is to build a line
from Stockton to Angels Camp.
There are some who see in this move
an intention to build across the Sierras
to connect somewhere with the Gould
system, the western connection of which
is the Rio Grande Western. Others say
the road will tap the mines to Calaveras
and TuOlumne.

WICHITA SUSPICIOUS.
Fears That the Orient Road Will Not
Be Built.

Wichita is beginning to think the
Orient road is a gold brick. The Wichita
Eagle says of it: THAT Wichita is, to
some extent, losing confidence in the
building of the Orient road there is no
doubt and this is probably due to its
attitude towards the people in the mat
ter of the shop location. 1t is probable
that if the men behind the Orient would
take the citizens of Wichita into their
confidence more, and try to please them
better, that they would be more friend
ly towards it and more hopeful that it
would redeem it's promises. 1t might
at least announce publicly what is
known privately and. that is the loca-
ton of the shop site. That it should do
so was clearly contemplated in the pro-
position submitted to the people and
upon which representation they voted
bonds IN aid of the road"

about $4,000. The survey was made

level and is very favorable for a dam.
