George Bothner Failed to Throw Joe
 Bernstein Twice


 New York, Nov 6.-George Bothner made his reappearance on the BOwery last night in a limited time catch-as catch-can wrestling bout, but failed to carry out his contract of throwing Joe Bernstein, the Ghetto pugilist, twice in fifteen minutes. The pair met at the London theater and there was large crowd present. After a few minutes of fddling for holds, Bothner got Bernstein to the carpet and immediate ly applied half Nelson. Bothner had Joe's shoulder down, but could not bring the other over, although he used all his strength. Then he permitted Bernstein to escape, and when they came together again Bothner secured a scissors hold. He squeezed Bernstein until it looked as if the fighter would succumb, but again Bernstein got away. This was the order of things until the tenth minute. Then Bothner tried other tactics, He went for a crotch hold and was successful He first spun Bernstein on hls head and then fell on him. The force of his weight broke bridge which Bernstein attempted and the latter fell on his back. The first fall required Il min utes 15 seconds. Just three minutes and forty five seconds remained for Bothner to win and he did not succeed. Bernstein was clever and game and got away and stayed the limit He was declared the winner.
 Clarence Bouldin, the "Cuban Won der,' had a tough customer in Frank Idone, a former soldier in the United States army. In build and, strength Idone compared with the Cuban, but he lacked, the latter's science. Bouldin set to work with the evident intention of deciding the match in hurry; but he underrated his man and Idone worked out of some trying grasps Finding that he could do nothing by forcing things, Bouldin allowed Idone to cut out the pace. It was a clever rrse and Idone was winged" twice. The last time he could not escape, and by slow. careful maneuvering the Gu ban put his rival down. The bout last ed 9 minutes and 12 seconds.

ORANGE GROVES In FLORIDA
THAT WERE THREATENED
WITH FROST
Thick Smoke Above, Frosts Could
not Penetrate-Laborer Drew
Fifteen Thousand Dollar
Prize - Died From
Fearof Poverty
Other News.

Orlando, Fla. Dec. 2S.-Fires are
burning tonight throughout the
orange belt Of Northern Florida to
save the groves. The weather
Bureau gave warning of frost on
Friday, and the fires were kindled
at once. In the night the temper
ature fell to "a and last night it
was %. A temperature of "a is
fatal to young trees, and 18 will kill
those we'll matured.
i The fires have prevented losses
that would have amounted to mil
lions Of dollars. So far it is thought
that little damage has been done
to the young trees. AS fully 80 per
cent of the fruit has been shipped
the remainder will be safe, and as
good judges say, juicier for a little
cold.
Huge piles of pine and oakwood
had been scattered throughout the
groves not too near the trees, AS
the warning came to the growers
either by wire or by the hoarse
whistlings of locomotives as they
sped through the country men by
the thousands ran to start the fires.
Soon the bright gleam was seen for
hundreds of miles around.
The aim is to secure a dense
smoke that will hover over the trees
making canopy that the frost can
not penetrate. In nearly every
case this will protect trees from the
most severe cold. In hundreds of
,grgyos small eIees iron stoves are
provided. These are kept going all
night. If the cold continues for
days the cost to the grower is con-
siderable. But generally two nights
at time is as long as e'freeze"
lasts.
Mr. Ststson, Philadelphia mil
lionaire, has large groves at Deland |
in which each tree is protected by a
house built around it,. with small
stove inside. Only 1niHionaires
can afford this, but MrStetson says
his increase crop pays the expense.
Many wealthy growers have fem
cos built around their groves, SO
that each tree is practically cover
I'd others use tents. But nearly
all depend upon the fires.

San Francisco, Jan. 2.-San

That time was desired to insure the
perfect hardening of the gutta per-
cha in the splice after the joint
should be lowered overheard from
the ship in about 25oo feet of water.
Operators sat anxiously and eager
ly about the instrument in King
street, at Honolulu, and in the ca
BILE Office on Market street, in San
Francisco, waiting for the time linn.
it to expire. San Francisco was
watching for Honolulu to signal
first. A few moments after II o.
clock, before the time limit was up,
a signal went from this end to Hon
olulu. That first little response
from Honolulu came into the San

Chicago, Jan. 3.-Five masked
men dynamited the safe of the First
National Bank, at Abingdon, early
this morning, and stole s4,80O.
Two of the robbers were arrested at
Quincy, on the arrival of the fast
mail on the Burlington from Gales
burg.
The five men held up the night
watchman in the main street of A
bingdon shortly after midnight,
hound and gagged him and placed
him in the Office of the bank. while
they wrecked the vault and safe
with dynamite. Having secured
their booty, they gave the watch
man $40 and fled. Their escape
was made in buggy stolen from a
barn in the outskirts. Their horse
proved slow traveller, aud they
exchanged it at farm house near
town. The thieves, it is thought,
drove to Galesburg, where they
boarded burlington express bound
for Chicago. Information was wired
ahead, and detectives were in wait
Jog at Quincy when the train drew
into the station. Only two of the
safe blowers arrived at Quincy.
They were recognized instantly,
and both drew pistols when the Of
icers rushed uponx xthem, but they

New York, Jan,2.-Dr w Fl Park
bacteirologist of the Department of
Health, has made several expert.
ments to determine the value of
lemen juice in destroying typhoid
bacilli, regarding which much has
been published recently. Several
microscopical examinations of cul-
lures of typhoid bacilli which had
been subjected to the action of the
lemon juice showed that although
the acid killed the micro organ
ism, it required too much acid and
too much time for the chemical
action to take place to render lemon
juice as an agent practicable.
DR. Parks negative opinion in
regard to the efficacy of the acid as.
a typhoid prophylactic was corro-
borated, for. after the bacilli had
been acted upon by a five per cent
solution of the acid for 30 minutes
it was found that all of them had
not been destroyed.
DR.. Park when questioned regard
ing the experiments, said:
My experiments were confirmed
by the tests. 1t is far safer to boil
the water or filter it properly than
to trust to lemon juice to destroy
the typhoid bacilli that may be in
it. Of course, the statement that
The acid would destroy any typhoid
germs that might be contained in
oysters by sprinkling it on the out.
,ide is ridiculous"
