JOE CANS IS FAYORlTE
SPORTS PICK THE CHAMPION TO
DEFEAT WILLIE FITZGERALD
AT DETROIT TONIGHT.

From present indications a crowded
house will witness the championship
battle at Detroit tonight when Joe
Cans and Willie Fitzgerald battle for
the title. Never have two fighters
trained more diligently and faithfully,
each realizing that his opponent is a
hard nut to crack.
for the title. He met Cans on the
coast last May, when Cans won.
After this battle the champion was
quoted as saying that Fitzgerald gave
him one Of the toughest battles in his
career and to-day the dusky one states
that he expects as hard battle to-
night.
Bets recorded at Detroit make Cans
the favorite. Fitzgerald people are
holding out for good odds, but the
opinion of sporting critics is that Cans
will be favOrite at odds Of to on
the night of the contest. The cham
pion's supporters refuse to lay to /.
Bob Fitzsimmons, who is in New
in the ring with any man except Jim
Jeffries. Fitz thinks that the cham
pion Is in a class by himself, and that
it is useless to try to beat him.

in particular" observed the Cornish
man. But am afraid that he will
never give me a chance. But I am
going to stick to him until learn
definitely just what his intentions to-
ward me are. I don't see why he
should ignore me because I whipped
him when he was on top. I should
think that he would want to even up,
if Anything. My hands, which I in
jured fighting George Gardner, are all
to the good now. All that was neces-
sary to bring them back into shape
was rest.
IF Corbett refuses to meet me. /
will be ready to take them all on, one
after the other, because there are
plenty Of fights left in me, even If some
folks say I'm getting old. Let them
all come, the more the merrier. I'll
meet Marvin Hart, Sandy Ferguson
or any white man, provided there is
money in it. I am feeling fine, but
would rather fight than remain idle

A Remarkable Testimonial from

warm water and Cuticura Soap. In
few days the Cuticura Ointment had

with large sterilized needle, squeezed
and bathed, and fresh Ointment put
on. Pus and blood, and yellow,

about three or four weeks time this
treatment completely eliminated the
tumor. The soreness that had ex-

"As far as the Wilton Ignite is
concerned, there has not been any
increase in prices, and hence there has
been no necessity for a reduction in
prices because Of publicity said
Senator w. D. Washburn this morn
ing, in referring to a dispatch from
Bismarck saying that Ignite prices
the people were beginning to buy an
thracite coal In preference.
The complaint Of the high prices
for Ignite, which have appeared in
many of the North Dakota papers,
and Of which the article in e
Journal of Saturday gave the pur-
port, have their foundation, not in
ging for Wilton Ignite, but in the
high prices charged for Kenmare and
Minot coal on the 500 line.
The local demand for that Ignite
has been SO strong in comparison to
the output that the high prices
which were charged during the big
coal strike Of last year are still main
tanned and the miners get $2.25 and
$3.50 a ton at the mine.
80 it happens that when they ship
into Fessenden or Darlington or other
points on the northern 500 line, we,
who sell at the mine for $1.25, are
able to invade the northern territory
Dy shipping on tlle 0OO ny way VI
Hankinson or on the Northern Pa
cific by way of Jamestown. And that
is what has reduced the price of lig-
mite at certain 500 line points.
$50 far as 1 know, there has been
no recent reduction in Ignite prices
at Fargo, which we serve almost ex-
clusively.'
At Bismarck the price ruling is be-
low that fixed by agreement as the
maximum.
Senator Washburn emphatically de-
MES that the Northern Pacific holds
Il mortgage on the Bismarck, Wash
burn & Great Falls railroad, which is
developing one of the North Dakota
Ignite fields. He says: "A year ago
we borrowed money from the North
ern Pacific company for construction
purposes, but that money has been
paid back and the Northern Pacific
never had a mortgage on our road"

REFORM In
GAME LAWS
IOWA LEGISLATURE WILL CON
SIDER IMPORTANT BILLS.
Game Warden Will Ask for Three
Years Closed Season on Prairie

Humboldt, Iowa, Jan. 12.--The
hunting season in Iowa is practically
at a stand still, and will not open
again until the coming Of the ducks
in the spring. The fall months gave
excellent duck shooting, the best since
the early COS, poor prairie chicken
shooting, and fair sport on quail. Col
ton-tails are scarce. Owing to the
scarcity of snow so far this winter, the
uuails have had an easy time of it and
there are plenty left for the mating
season.
There will probably be more impor-
tant bills introduced into the Iowa
state legislature this winter pertaining
to the better protection of wild fowl
and animals than have been intro
duced for several years past; and back
Of these bills is considerable influence
towards their passage.
State Game and Fish Warden Lin
coin has three important bills to pre-
sent. The three-years' closed season
on prairie chickens is much needed for
these birds are almost extinct in Iowa
now. The bill for the prohibition Of
spring shooting has been killed in sew
eral past legislatures, but it is hoped
| that it will pass this year. 1t will help
the duck supply and the birds will re-
main in Iowa to breed in large num-
| bers, as they have already done in
small numbers, if unmolested In the
spring. The third bill, for a 81 license
| for all resident hunters, would add
| much revenue to aid the enforcement
Of the game laws.
| There is also bill proposed for an
absolute closed season on all game in
! the state for three months, June, July
| and August. This would give no one
the excuse of carrying a gun and doing
so would be the same as misde-
meanor. There is some talk Of lessen
ing the strength Of the trespassing
! law so as to allow a hunter to cross
the enclosed fields of another, with
out being subject to arrest, as long as
| he does no harm to the property; but
the last two bills can never be passed
There is one thing regarding game
protection which many of the north
ern sportsmen overlook. They have
failed to see that the sale of game has
more to do with the great decrease OF
game, especially the ducks, than any.

very careful, and not run any risk of
having the horse injured. In any
case, I would not let him appear at a

horse were to pace on the ice, it would
be at a matinee Of the Lake Of the
Isles club, but I do not intend to let
him appear at all this winter, except
at the horse show next week. I have

NURsED HIS ANGER
John HoInboe Waited SO Long That Wit
nesses Forqot

A SANDER case of three months standing
was aired in police court this morning but
as no two witnesses could swear to the
same thing nor to anything positively the
case was dismissed by Judge Dickinson.
John Holmboe swore out warrant for
the arrest of G. A. Lund accusing him Of
slanderng Mrs. Holmboe. The complain
ant said that Lund came into his saloon
three months ago and made remarks about
his wife before several customers. He
decided to let the matter go but finally
became angered and after considering the
matter for months, decided to prosecute.
Holmboe had plenty of witnesses but their
memories were SO poor that they could
not remember three months back.

The TelePraphone.

The Central District Printing & Tele-
graph Company Of Pittsburg, is en-
gagged in installing new system Of
telephones for the r. & l.. Coal & Iron
Company of this place, whereby the b.,
II. & Il. Railroad Company's telegraph
lines may be used for sending both tele-
graph and telephone messages on the
same wire at the same time without one
operation interfering with the other.
Three phones are now being success
fully operated by this system. one in
the II. & =. Coal & Iron Company's Of
flee at this place, one at Ernest, and a
third at Iselin, 45 miles from Punxsu-
tawney. BY this system telephone
operator who Is also versed In tele-
grapby, can receive, over the same line,
either n tephone or telegraph mes
sage, as desired. While the receiver
OF the phone Is hanging up the click OF
the instrument may be heard as dis
tluctly as though you we're sitting at
the keyboard in telegraph Office.
When the receiver Is taken down, how
ever, the sounds made by the telegraph
instruments are completely shut off and
you are enabled to receive a telephone
message with greater degree OF clear
ness than by the usual mode of receiv-
Ing telephone messages.
In addition to the line from this place
to lselin, Indiana county, the system
will at once be extended to Yatesboro
and Buffalo and Rochester. BY intro
| ducing this. system the Rochester &
Pittsburg Coal & Iron people will effect
saving of over 800, 900, as it was the
intention OF the company to connect all
of the places just mentioned by private
telephone wire during the present year.
