BEAT ROOSEVELT AT BOXING.
Beginning Of Rise Of Man Appointed
Oklahoma,s Governor.


Soon after President Roosevelt entered
the White House, says a dispatch from
Guthrie. Okla. Capt. Frank Frantz. former
ly Of the Rough Riders and few days ago
appointed to be governor of oklahoma
after January 1. called upon him. During
their conversation Frantz remarked that
he had boxed some at Harvard. Then
nothing would do but he must put on the
gloves with the President
"Bullyp' exclaimed Mr.. Roosevelt. as he
got up rubbing his Jaw after the first punch
had put him of his feet. But you can't do
it again."
They spared for a few seconds. then
biff! and the President of the United States
lay on his back on the gymnasium floor. A
right hook to the Jaw had done the work.
Mr.. Roosevelt was not out, but he was
not so eager to get up and mix" 1t again.
The boxing bout was ended and Frantz's
political career begun. He was first made
postmaster at Enid. Then he declined the
81, 800 was not enough. He met Secretary
Hitchcock In ST. Louis by request.
II. didn't indorse you for the position, .
admitted Secretary Hitchcock. 'but the
been considerable graft at the Usage agency
and he wants you to clean 1t up"
"An right" answered Capt. Frantz, IF
the President asked me to go to South
Africa and there wasn't cent In 1t I'd
take the trip. I'll take the place."
Frantz was installed as agent for the
Usage Indians. and there has been no hint
Of graft since. Now this same Harvard
Rough Rider boxer has been named gov
ernor Of Oklahoma.
There are four Franz brothers. Orvtlle,
who is also a White House caller. is wres-
tier. He has never thrown the President
and has no office. He was known as Home
Run" Frantz at Harvard and he will pitch
for the st. Louis Cardinals next year. John
and Walter are amateur athletes of note.

HOLOCAUST AT GLASGOW.
80 Men Dead and SO Injured at
Lodging House Fire.

A cabiegram from Glasgow last night
says: The worst fire horror in Great Brit
ain for many years occurred here today in
cheap lodging house for men in Watson
street. when thirty-nine lives were lost and
thirty-two men were injured. many Of them
severely.
The flames Were first noticed at O'Clock
this morning on the fourth floor of the
building, which was occupied by $50 men.
An alarm was raised. and the firemen re-
sponded quickly. but flames and smoke
were then coming from all OF the windows
on the fourth floor. An extraordinary
scene was created by a procession of almost
naked men rushing out of the entrance.
The dead were mostly workmen In the
prime OF life. They presented horrible
spectacle. their blackened faces bearing evil
dence of terrible struggles to escape.
Many men were sleeping in the attic
floor above the burning fourth floor, and
these had narrow escapes. The flames burst
through the floor, and II was impossible for
the men to descend. The windows were Sc
curely fastened and the men had to break
them so that they could climb through TO
neighboring roofs.
It appears to be the custom OF these lodg-
ers to sleep In a nude condition. and the
march OF the survivors to the police station
was q fantastic one. Some had snatched
the covers of the beds and others their
trousers. while many wore nothing. The
local authorities had to be called upon to
supply the men with clothing and warm
meals.
Owing TO their migratory habits and the
absence OF permanent homes. many OF the
dead will never be identified. The identf-
fication Of others Is rendered difficult by the
absence OF clothing.

SECRETARY sHAw's PLANS.
Probably Will Go to Europe and Their
Return to Iowa,

When he goes out of office in February
next Secretary Shaw will probably make
q visit to Europe, where his family is and
where 1t viii remain for a number of
months. The Secretary has not definitely
made up his mind about making this trip,
but he has had it In view, and hopes that
nothing will prevent. He will remain
abroad a month or so.
There has been much gossip about what
Secretary Shaw will do when he goes out
of office. and 1t Is stated that he has re-
ceived a number of gratifying effers from
large financial concerns in New York. 1t
Is generally understood, though, that his
purpose Is to return to the banking business
In Iowa, his home state, and to keep track
of his political prospects. He has a large
backing for the republican presidential nom-
inatfon three years from now, and his abil-
ity as stump speaker will keep him be-
fore the people. He will probably be pretty
generally used by the republicans in the
congressional campaign next year.
