to keep the team here, and will do so
if I can, but 1 will simply not be able
to do so if we are obliged to play ball
at Lexington park; that is, if we are not
permitted to have a downtown park
1t is simply business proposition. Our
club for the season of 1902 will entail q
salary list of $1,000 a month, which will
aggregate $4,000 for the season of six
months. Last year our salary list av-
eraged only So, AGO a. month, and we could
not make the venture a profitable one at
that. We cannot run a first-class base
ball team on the Sunday games alone,
and our weekday games certainly lose
money for US when we play to an at
tendance of 800, of which IT'S come in en-
passes. AS I have said, we want to keep
the club here and will do SO if we con-
sistently can; but we cannot afford to do
so at expense to ourselves.
MIR. Hickey on his way here, visited
Grand Rapids and found that the people
of that city want a team, and would
very readily make provision for the pur-
chase of the st. Paul franchise and team.
He is assured that there will be no diff
ficulty in satisfactorily placing the team
in Grand Rapids in case we should find
it necessary to let it go, which we GER
tainly shall unless we can secure down
town grounds.
Mr.. Hickey visited TIE Lexington park
grounds and also the site proposed for
the new grounds this morning. He has
looked into the situation as far as pos
sible and appears hopeful that we may
be able to secure the downtown grounus
without great difficulty. He win leave
here tonight. and intends to go to Mil
waukee. 1 shall go to Chicago tomorrow
night, and will meet Mr.. Hickey there
Tuesday"
1t is understood that there will be a
general meeting of the St. Paul patrons
of baseball this week to determine some
course of action in regard to the atti-
tude of the city council in relation to the
downtown baseball mark

The attention of the medical frater-
nifty of the state of Washington is be-
ing attracted by the remarkable 40
day fast recently accomplished by Mrs.
Jennie Jenkins at Olympia. Mrs. Jen-
kins is about 35 years of age, and only
five feet five inches in height.
Before her fast she weighed 300
pounds. The fat had accumulated on
her legs between the knee and ankle
until the skin was about to crack with
the pressure and life was simply a
burden to the unfortunate woman. She
could scarcely walk or turn over in
bed. Her muscles almost refused to
support her. She was advised by DR..
Strickland to refrain entirely from
food and on May 81 took her last meal.
For 40 days and 40 nights not a crumb
of food in any shape or form passed
her lips. At the end of that time she
had lost SO pounds of flesh and was
much improved in health She was
very weak after her experience, and
for few days only partook of Cruel
and extremely light food, but now is
eating two meals a day, although she
will always abstain from breakfast
and diet very sharply to keep from
regaining her superabundance of flesh.

Might BE Double Suicide

Chicago, July 2S.-A discovery which
may throw some light upon the fate of
Miss Florence Ely and her nephew, Frank
Rogers, who disappeared mysteriously
from the home OF her parents in Evan
ston last year, has been made at Racine
Wis, says the Record Herald. A piece Of
cardboard ahich was found near the river
there bore the following words: October
10, l90l.-Ma and Pa; Meet us in heaven
We are going to commit suicide. Miss
Florence Ely and Frank Rogers"
Miss Ely and her nephew were traced
to Racine, where they stopped at hotel
They took a car north from there, AMI
no further trace of them could be found.

The primary election of delegates to
the First congressional district Of New
Jersey was held Monday in Camden,
Gloucester and Salem counties, which
comprise the district. The candidates
for the nomination are Henry G. Lou
denslager, the present congressman,
and j. Alpheus Van Zant. The contest
has been one of the most bitter ever
held in southern New Jersey. The
polls were open from 5 p. m. to 8 p. M,
and the three hours were marked with
serious fighting. One man was killed
in this city and Joe Goddard, the well
known heavyweight pugilist of Phila-
delphia, was probably fatally shot
while electioneering in Pensauken
township; another man was danger
ously stabbed in this city, and fourth
man received stab wounds at Dog
Corner" near Merchantsville.
A. M. Rothschild, until two months
ago the head of the State street de-
partment store of the firm of A. M.
Rothschild & Co., at Chicago, commit
ted suicide at his home, Thirty-sev-
enth court and Michigan avenue, by
shooting himself in the head, the
wound causing almost instant death.
Acute insomnia, which probably
caused temporary insanity, is said to
be responsible for the deed.
One million dollars in treasure was
brought by the steamship Roanoke,
which arrived in Seattle from Nome
and ST. Michael Monday morning. This
is the largest shipment to come from
the Nome district this season.

Injured During Parade,

Salt Lake Utah, July 2S.-Three per-
sons were seriously injured at Fort
Douglas while the troops were being re,
viewed by General Funston of TIE depart
ment of Colorado.
One of the horses attached to a gun of
the Twenty second battery became en-
tangled in its harness, frightening the
others, and all six bolted at terrific speed

horses. The caisson turned over, badly

New York, July 2S.-Richard Meade,
night Waterman, ON returning to his
home in Brooklyn, found his two daugh-
tiers, the elder 3 years of age, dead from
strangulation caused by Irvine tightly tied
around their threats. A third child, a mere
baby, was unconscious on the floor, ap-
pareptly suffering from alcoholism, com
bined with poison. The supposition is that
the mother strangled the children while in
a delirious condition. The youngest child
was still alive and was removed to a hos
pital with the mother. The baby's in
Juries are probably fatal, as the cord had
cut deep into it's throat.

San Francisco, July 2S.-Dr William T.
Frederick, who attended Champion James
j. Jeffries' injuries and repaired his broken
nose, made the following statement coli
corning his injuries:
"The condition of Jeffries' face would
make it evident to any one that Jeffres
was not engaged in a fake fight. The
condition of his face showed the punish
ment which he received was enough TO
have put out a fighter who did not pos
sess the extraordinary staying powers Of
the champion. The confused wounds on
the right infraorbital and left supraor-
bital margins, as well as the DETECTED
condition of the septum of the nose, prove
what force the blows must have exerted.
Had these blows been rained on one of
less staying powers the fight would have
been over long before the eighth round.
The other visible effects of Fitzsimmons'
blows show or prove that an honest at,
tempt was made to turn the victory IT,
ward the loser"
