COB AS A BOXER.

Boston, Sept 15.-Wesley Coe, the amateur shot butter, is telling his friends that he is going to seek honor as a professional boxer this winter. While Coe has never appeared in the ring, he is, nevertheless, good boxer and would need but little instruction to make him a dangerous man in the heavyweight division. He is well built, of good height, and his perform ances, on the athletic field show that he is very strong. For a big fellow he is fast on his feet and can hit hard with either hand. He isNSonfident that he would do well even now, but he has no thought yet of being an aspir- ant for the heavyweight championship title.

BIG GUNS FOR
NAVY, BAY0NETS
FOR SOLDIERS

WASHINGTON, March 29-The
Russo-Japanese war has resulted in
radical changes in the policy of our
army and navy. The former is pre-
pairing now for short range conflict,
while the latter is building and
arming for longer range than before
contemplated. President Roosevelt
short time ago had a talk with the
secretary of war, and as result or
ders were issued up and down the line
to make ready for the hand-to-hand
fight. Sabers have been ordered
sharpened; the style of the bayonet
is to be changed, the long thin ram
rod style now in use is to be substi-
tuted by a broader and larger bayo-
net. and it is possible that the present
rife will have to be abandoned for a
longer one The general staff is some
what disturbed by the fact that the
total length of the American soldiers
reach" including the length of the
rife with the bayonet added, is seven
inches less than the reach of every
other army in the world. In case of
hand to-hand fight this, 1t is fear
ed, might be demoralizing TO the
American troops. To correct this the
whole army would have to be
equipped with new style rife and bay
onet The president thinks this should
be done without loss of time. He is
greatly impressed with the fact that
in practically every severe engage
ment in Manchuria, even at Port Ar
thur, the soldiers came to hand grips.
On the other hand, the lessons of
the naval actions in the far east are
all for longer and bigger range guns.
This is exactly the reverse of the
conclusions formed at the close of
the Spanish-American war; but that
affair is now regarded as a very
trifiing one, and not instructive in
the real business of modern naval
warfare. So, in place Of medium and
low caliber guns on the battleships
the new orders are all for fewer and

Brill & Wing, expert court report
ers, have started a new school of
shorthand in the rooms on the upper
floor of the Spokane & Eastern Trust

methods will be taught, the system
being based on the spelling rather
than on the sound of words as other
schools instruct. This system has
been evolved by Messrs, Brill and
Wing from the methods used by them

Russia's attitude toward the war has

seemed the more pressing, peace was

best means to end the war was eager

that threatened the dynasty if the
struggle in Manchuria were con-

A period of quiet supervened, Ku-

battle, and once more Nicholas Alex

by Count Lamsdorff and the princi-

Duke Sergius was assassinated in
Moscow, and, in the consequent con-

AS attorney general of Ohio Frank
S. Monnett conducted a hot fight
against the Standard Oil company
several years ago. He did not do the
trust any particular harm, but he
achieved nationwide fame, partly by
claim that he had been offered a
100000 bride. Now Monnett has
been employed by the Kansas Oil
Producers association to aid in the
flower state, and it is also reported
that President Roosevelt may ask
him to aid James r. Garfield in the
latter's investigation of the oil mo-
nopoly.
