set for trial on December 14th. and the
case is quite likely to be postponed. The
trouble lies from the fact that there Is
no one to prosecute Williams as yet Dis
trict Attorney Warren informed the
Humboldt county Commissioners on No.
vember 18th last that he would not pros
ecu,e the case unless paid extra compen-
sation, since the case had been trans
ferred to another county. The Boaid In
structed Mr.. Warren to secure help If he
needed it, and he engaged the services
of District Attorney Pike Of Washoe.
Mr.. Warren made a statement before the
Board at the last meeting that Mr.. Pike
had put in twenty days of mis- time and
recommended that he be allowed $50 for
his services. This The Board refused to
allow. Under the circumstances there Ia
no one willing to undertake the Williams
case. 1t may prove more costly to Hum
boldt in the long run than it would havo
been had the commissioners strained
point and provided for the prosecution Of
Williams.
AT all events, from the way 1t looks
now, the case will have to be postponed.

THEATER FIRES.

Quite recently an old manuscript was
unearthed at a theatrical library which
contained some interesting information
concerning the destruction of theater
properties by fire in the United States
from 1889 until few years ago. The
list is a long one and is believed to be
as complete up to 1861 as it could well
be made. Since that time there are
some gaps in the record which have not
been filed. The list is as follows:

The trotting fever is difficult to
overcome. Once the lust for harness
racing swelis mans heart. he is
doomed for fife A recent proof of the
truth of this assertion was the case Of
w. ]. Hay Of Dubois, Pa. Hay is well
known in the light harness world For
several years ne operated a large and
successful stable, among his racers
being Theron Powers, 2:0S1a; The
Bishop, ?: O6, and Rosebud, 2:0S%-
A short time ago he believed he had
outIived his fondness for the track. He
held sale and disposed of every horse
he owned. Sulkies, blankets and even
whips went under the hammer II
don't want any reminders of the turf
about me-" was his thought. Foolish
man! Little did he consider that what
ever is bred in the bone cannot be
eradicated by the fancy of a moment
A few weeks after he had sold his
horses Hay heard that the fast green
trotter Una Medium, by Uncas Me-
dunn. dam by Norval, could be pur-
chased at a price that he considered
reasonable. The tempter whispered in
his ear. and finally the veteran horse
man surrendered. He lost no time in
obtaining the trotter, and his friends
are wondering how long a time will
pass ere Hays stable viii once more
rank among the leaders.
So take heed, all We owners and
trainers. Don't flatter yourselves with
the belief that you can step down and
out of the game at any moment Like
grandpa and his pipe and dear old
aunty' and her shining knitting needle,
you and the white rallied track viii be
inseparabIe SO long as life lasts.

Jack Munroe,s Pet Punch.

Jack Munroe, the ex-Butte miner
boxer who hopes to defeat Champion
Jim Jeffries June II, has a favorite blow
which his admiring friends are pleased
to term the money maker"
The blow is nothing new We have
no reason to expect any startling inno-
walton from the miner. 1t is merely a
heavy short right swing delivered
while Munroe is bending forward with
his head crouched behind his left fore
arm. which he bends across his fore
head.
MunroF uses this blow repeatedly,
and, unlike most right swings or half
swings, it does not leave the body un-
protected to any great extent, through
the fact that his crouch keeps his
stomach out of reach, and the left arm
protects the head.

to give it a production Mrs. Osborn.

How the Blow Affected sharkey.

The miner used the blow with telling
effect against Sailor Tom Sharkey in
their bout in Philadelphia. He gener-
ally sends it to the body. for in aiming
it at an opponents head Munroe has
necessarily to stand somewhat erect,
thus raising himself out of the crouch.
It was this blow that Munroe used
when he sent Sharkey into and almost
through the ropes.
The best defense against the miners
pet punch is a left swing to the right
side of the head. as this spot is left
partially unguarded when he makes
his rush. As the miner is slow, a fast
man could land his left swing before
Munroe's blow could take effect
OF course a man who is quick on his
feet can readily side step. A duck,
however, would be fatal, as the punch
is a low one. and the miners opponent,
not being able to go under it, would
dodge down into it, giving it double
power.

For several years Princeton ball play

Mans several runs ito the bad" toward
the end of the game. suddenly started
a sensational batting streak that put
them in the lead and won them the in
