Frank Smith, editor of Smiths
Dope" has a novel idea Of how to
make some money on the coming
fight between Jack O'Keefe ana
Kid Parker. Smith has a scheme
to run the betting to to l on
Parker and then bet on O'Keefe.
Smith always did like O'Keefe
and he thinks he will win from
Parker so will lay few wagers
on the Chicago boy. 1t is said all
arrangement have been made to
put the scheme through. Here 1T
is. Smith Is a man about eight
feet tall and weighs about $50
pounds. Jack is about five feet
eight inches and weighs 1876
pounds. Just before the fight,
which comes off Friday, Smith is
to bring one of his suits of clothes
to town and put them on O'Keefe,
pad the Chicago boy up with pill
lows and send him down the street
with his manager, Ollie Lindh.
Don't you see," stated Smith,
"that some of the fans will see
Jack and Immediately say that he
cannot fight as he is too fat. The
odds will go to or to 1, and then
Is where start betting"
It's a good scheme If enough pill
lows can be found in Spokane to
fill out the vacancy between Jacks
body and Smiths clothes.
Those who are trying to figure
the dope on the coming fight be-
tween Aurelia Herrera and Kid
Herman should not come to the
conclusion that Herrera will put
the Chicago lad away like he did
Young Corbett. 1t will be remem-
bered that Eddie Hanlon made a
fool of Herrera because the MeXi-
can could not hit him. Herrera
has the punch, but he must be able
to land it in order to win the long
end of a purse. He wasn't able to
land on Hanlon effectively and still
Herman found no trouble in hitting
the Pride of Telegraph Hill.
Hermans battle will be to hit
and get away. He will try to pre-
vent Herrera from landing one of
those pile drivers on a vulnerable
spot. If he can do it he will win
because he is the cleverer of the
two.
The ambitious w. c. T. u. agent
who reported that Aurelia Herrera
had signed the pledge, must have
dreamed it. The Mexican cham
pion has never had the faintest
idea of signing anything which
even remotely resembles a pledge.
He takes his nip every day and
1t doesn't seem to interfere with
his getting into condition.
The way Herrera puts 1t is this:
Il have been drinking whisky so
long that wouldn't be able to
train well unless | keep right at it.
1t doesn't hurt me. I'll be in good
condition when the night of the
battle arrives"
To see fighter In training lined
up against bar would give most
of the fight fans heart disease, but
with Herrera it Is different. He

vened here this morning the cases
of Meyer, Haywood and Pettibone
were called. The attorneys for the
prisoners Immediately filed notice of
alleged disqualifications which they
contended should prevent District
the trial Judge, and gave notice of

ty-six reasons which are alleged to
disqualify Judge Smith are given.
Among other points it is alleged that
Governor Gooding has issued a pub

the defendants and that he had proof
of their guilt The fact that Smith
is an appointee of the Governor is
set forth and the allegation made
that he is subject to the influence of
the Governor. The manner of draw
ing the grand jury is also attacked.

Confidence

House in Declaring Lack of
Confidence.
st. Petersburg, May 29.-The gov
ernment has decided on its course of
action with reference to the vote of
lack of confidence by the lower house
and its demand for resignation of the
ministry. The administration will
swallow parliament's affront and
treat its resolution simply as dec
laration beyond its competency and
as not binding upon the monarch. In
other words, the government has de-
cided to ignore the demand of the
lower house. but will not dissolve
the parliament. In the meantime the
government will offer to parliament
it's own projects for the solutionof
the agrarian questions, etc, and if
they are rejected, the lower house
will then be allowed to elaborate its
own projects. No amnesty will be
granted, but political prisoners will
be released as rapidly as possible.
