CHARLOTTESVILLE Ind, Dec. 81
The citizens in and about Bowers. a
small place near this city, are greatly
excited because of a CHASTITY Christmas
box sent to Charles Campbell a farmer.
Mr. Campbell has been on a visit in Da-
kota for some weeks, and before he left
home he instructed his two small boys
to open the Christmas bex he expected
to send them On Christmas day a box
was delivered at the Campbell home His
sons opened the box and We're Mortified
to find it contained the body of woman
The limbs and arms had been severed
close to the body to allow the CHASTITY
object to be crowded into the box. The
body was taken from the box and hung
up in the barn, where it was viewed by
scores of people. AS soon as the health
officers heard of it they ordered the
body cut down pending an investigation.
1t was learned that the body belonged
to a DR.. Campbell, of Lafayette. who
procured it at medical college at In
dianapols and was shipping it home
for dissection. He was able to convince
the officials that everything was regular
DR.. Campbell secured. the body and took
it to Lafayette.

CHICAGO. Dec 2.-Billy Delaney.
manager of Champion James J. Jeffries,
arrived in the city today. He is bound
for New York with the object of induc-
ing some of the leading heavyweights
to try their luck with JeffrieS. De
laney said:
My visit to New York is solely for the
purpose of signing some good man to
fight Jeffries. Every possible induce
ment will be offered FitzsimmoEs to
draw hin into another match with JEFF

anxious to have tackle the champion.

good or not One hears so many con-
Trajectory stories that it is impossible
to tell which is false and which is true.
If he does not want to fight again ne
has a perfect right to stay out of the
game All he has to do is to tell me
SO, and We shall not trouble him further.
81 have made arrangements to hold a
sort of reception in New York next Mon
day afternoon between the hours of
four and six o'clock All of the lead
ing heavyweights or their representa-
tives will be requested to attend and
make bids for fight with Jeffries.
don't mean to play any fayorites, and
the man that gets his forfeit money
for a match down first will be Jeffries'
next opponent.
Maiden will have to look elsewhere
for match on behalf of Denver Ed
Martin While Jeffries does not draw
the color line strictly, yet he refuses to
box a negro for the championship.
whoever Jeffries may be matched
with, the contest will undoubtedly take
place at Frisco. 1t is the only locality
where big fight can be brought off in
absolute safety

of domestic exports over. imports not far
from $3.50, ,00G or the third largest eX-
cess in the countrys history.
The review stated that the activity in
transportation was unprecedented The
outlook wa. treated in conclusion as fol-
lows:
MANY elements of strength and some
OF the opposite character present them
selves to view. The quietness of export
trade, checked by relatively higher prices
here and lack of new demand abroad
particularly in Germany, which country
is reported selling iron and steel products
below cost, are obstacles to increased
shipments by this country. On the other
hand, English trade advices are rather
better, and the predicted early suspension
of hostilities in South Africa and the re-
sumption of large gold shipments from
that section are favorable features pre-
senting themselves. Europe apparently
must buy our wheat and cotton freely, but
as long as domestic activity in trade,
particularly iron and steel. continues, the
need of foreign outlet is not regarded
as pressing. If only portion of the
high hopes INDUCED in as result of the
recent conferences of capital and labor
materialize, industrial peace and through
this sustained commercial good feeling
and prosperity will have been powerfully
furthered.'

Texas Oil benefited shaw.

AUSTIN. Tex. Dec. 27.-Gov. LesHeiI
Shaw, who is to he secretary of the
treasury, is another person of national
prominence who has made a big fortune
out of TIE Beaumont oil discovery. Gov.
Shaw was one of the pioneers in the de-
velopment of the rice-growing industry
in Western Louisiana and Eastern Tex
as. Through the efforts of Gov. Shaw
and associates large tracts of rice lands
around Orange and Beaumont, Tex, were
developed by Iowa colonists, and when
the oil discovery was made at Beau
mont. ten months ago, they quickly
proftea by the increased value of their
lands. which doubled many times within
a few weeks. In addition to his wealth.
derived from this rapid increase In the
value of his lands, Gov. Shaw Is actively
interested in several large oil companies
which are operating extensively in the
Beaumont fields.

Stage AFTER BIG GAME.
Chicago Coach VIII Try to Match
Maroons Against Cornell.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-Coach A. A. Stagg
left for New York yesterday, and hopes
are high at the University of Chicago
that he will come back with arrange
ments complete for a game with one o.
the big Eastern football teams for next
wear Stagg refused to say his trip was
being made to land a match to take the
place of the Pennsylvania game, Dut tne
fact that he has yet made no effort TO
arrange the football schedule for next
wear is regarded as significant.
Since the announcement by University
of PENNSYLVANIA managers that chicago
would not be included in it's schedule
for next wear on account OF the long Trip
and heavy expense, Stage has been con-
sidering the ACCESSIBILITY of filing the
gap with a game with another t-asler1
eleven Chicago has always had one ana
sometimes two Eastern teams Ior the
Maroons to face during the season, am
has felt that season would not be en-
tireIy satisfactory with games played
only with Western teams. Negotiations
may be entered into the more readiiv
since the Maroens have a pEactlcaliy
clean 1902 schedule. OILY the Wisconsin
game for THANKSGIVING day having peef'
definitely ARRANGED.
The choice of Eastern teams is tho1,'lt
by students of the University OF Chlcag9
to lie between Cornell and Columbia
Cornell has large alumni list in Chi
cage. and a game with the lthacans
would be almost certainly a money
maker if played on Mar=haI field The
PENNSYLVANIA s game was more popular
when Penn was making strong showing
against Harvard and other Eastern

ed regarding the boxing situation in tills
city 1.-The promoters who sought 10 re-
open the game at Tattersalfs went
ahead without the Slightest authority
from me If they have landed high and
dry it is their own fault, not mine. This
is all | intend to do in the matter. Tat
tersalls was barred a year ago and it Is
still barred. L think l have made thas
plain"
That is as far as the executive would
go and peremptorily dismissed the SUD
iect when attempt was maize to question
him further.
1t is not thought there is the slightest
( chance now of reopening the Dig six
teenth street structure fer boxing pur-
poses and the decision of the mayor to
adhere to his original intention OF Keep
ing the pugs out of the place was recelV-
ed with much sorrow by the local con-
tingent 1t will work a hardship On a
number of the fighters WAC HAD sought
matches here and had a good chance OF
getting them, to say nothing OF the eX-
pense the promoters have already gone
to in fixing up their States

yesterday about the latest Phase IN the
situation said bitterly:
'"There is no use talking about II Tor
what has been said and printed SO lar
ought to kill off all chance of there be-
ing any contests. here for a long time
This remark reflected the general fesl-
ing
