DIsTAsrEFUL FOOD.
How a Persoa's Likes and Dislikes
Affect the Digestive Organs.


Some remarkable experiments 10
show the comparative digcstiblity
Of different foods have recently been
conducted by Prof. Pawlow upon
dogs, says the Boston Budget. These
experiments are described BY DR..
Rommc, in Ia Revue:
The gullet Of the animal was cut
in sections and fixed 10 the deck, 50
that when it ate the food merely fell
to the ground, and the stomach was
divided into two parts. one where
no food was allowed 20 penetrate,
the other into which was put the
food necessary 10 keep TIE dog alive.
The results Of the experiments
proved that the mere offering to the
dog OF food which he hkel caused
an abundant secretion OF gastric
juice, although Of course nothing had
entered the stomach. II he we're
given a dainty, not merely food which
he liked the aov Of gastric juice

AFTERNOON GAME CALLED
OFF ON ACCOUNT OF RAIN

Elated over the Senator'S success in
the morning. fully three thousand fans
braved the elements and journeyed TO
the ball park yesterday afternoon, hop
ing to see their favorites duplicate the
performance. a bank of heavy and
threatening black clouds, which had
been gathering since noon. momentaTily
grew blacker and by 3 o'clock a heavy
shower set in. The fans waited pa
tiently until 3 80 O'Clock. when a leather
lunged youth. through the aid OF a
megaphone. announced that the game
had been called of. The chances
are a double-header will be played to-
morrow. in which event the first game
will be called at 23O O'Clock.

JACK ROOT NO MATCH
FOR GEORGE GARDNER
Lowell Boy Puts Westerner
Out in Twelfth Round.

BUFFALO, July 4.-Jack Root, Of Chi
cago. went down to defeat the the hands
of George Gardner In the twelfth round
of a scheduled twenty-round go in the
arena of the International Athletic Club
at Fort Erie this evening. Root was 10
match for the sturdy Lowell boy, and
had ii not been for the fact that Gard
ner was placed at disadvantage, owing
TO the clean-break rules. Root would
have lost earlier in the fight.
The blow which won was a right hand
jab to the jaw. Three times In the
| twelfth round did Root fall before this
punch, and the third time brought him
defeat. He arose on the count OF ten,
but Referee Mcbride waved him to his
corner and gave Gardner the fight.
Altogether, Root was knocked down
four times.
Battle Slow.
The battle was slow one. although at
times punch or two enlivened matters
and stirred the crowd OF 1000 spectators
Gardner seemed under the influence Of
narcotic. To those familiar with his
style of fighting, however, this did not
appear strange. and as the fight pro-
crossed 1t became evident he was Rssum-
ing waiting tactics and endeavoring 90
draw Root out
He changed his style of boxing after
the fifth and went after his man In bur-
ricane style at times.
1t was freely predicted that Root
would lose when the bell rang for the
twelfth round. Previous to this he show
ed signs of fatigue. while Gardner ap-
peared to grow stronger.
at no time did the Chicago boy have
his opponent in danger. and throughout
the match he assumed a defensive posi-
t!oa.
II was ten minutes after four when
Gardner appeared. and Root came a mo-
ment later. Both boxers were accord
ed an ovation. Root won the cornen
Rushed to Clinches.
1t was clinch after every blow was
landed. and the referee in nearly every
case was compelled to separate them.
The rule affected Gardner more than
Root. In the sixth round Gardner hit
Root on the head while In a clinch. and
then. realizing his mistake. dropped his
hands. leaving a beautiful opening, but
Root failed TO take advantage Of It.
The latter was confused by the rule.
and this accounts for the slow work done
in the early part of the fight Gardner
drew first blood In the third be cut

Gardner and Root will probably meet

LOST, STRAYED OR STOLEN,
BIG EDWARD DELEHANTY
Anyone Aseertaining His Whereabouts
Will Inform LOTUS and Oblige.

Tom LOTUS, doubtless. has many
faults: so have We all of US; yet his
worst enemy can't accuse him of not
being good fellow" but, as time has
proven. this same trait OF good-fellow-
ship, while virtue In many. is about
the worst characteristic a baseball man
ager can possess.
No more glartng demonstration of this
is necessary than the manner In which
Delehanty has repaid LOTUS for his
forbearance Of that much overrated
stars" many shortcomings since the
season opened.
At present, Lotus Is entirely in the
dark as to the whereabouts OF his 5000
beauty.
Delehanty left the hotel in Detroit on
the day Of the last game there. and
neither hide nor hair OF him has been
seen since. His baggage and uniform he
left behind him.
Last night. LOTUS was seen. and again
said he lad not heard a word from the
big fielder, and naturally felt bitterly
hurt az the treatment he had received.
He further said that DeIehanty has been
practically useless to the team since It
left here. due TO inclinations far too
bibulous. Possibly this accounts for the
dispatches from the West. wherein Dele
hantys chronic headaches we're referred
to.
II am tired of being good-felloT
now" said the manager. when he turns
up he Will be disciplined. and severely
at that don't care TO discuss the mat
ter too freely now. because Mrs Dele
hanty IS here. and Is deeply mortified
over her husbands conduct. but wait?'
and there was a world o. meaning In his
last remark
Del has four-flushed on his Job ever
since the season opened. and his last
flyer is in no wise a surprise to those
who have watched his course.
Lotus said last night that in sign
ing Kittridge. ii by no means meant
that either Clarke or Drill we're to be
released. as was published in a local
paper yesterday. II am but doing what
I can TO bolster up the CLUB. said Lof-
tus.
