all of vital Importance in this work.
Another feature is the dining-room,
with kitchen for supplying the doc.
tors with luncheons and special meals
when emergency cases require them tc
remain all night.
Perhaps one of the most interesting
places to the visitor is the roof of the
building Around the corrugated
copper covered apartments, reminding
one of the outside cabins on an ocean
steamship, are graveled decks for rec.
reation and runways where the dogs
and other animals awaiting treatment
may get exercise, air and sunbath.
In one part of this room is the autopsy
room, where the animals are finally
dissected, and nearby is a room for
dangerous chemical and animal ex,
.periments.
Everywhere throughout the building
every improvement has been incorpor.
ated, every precaution taken to secure
safety in carrying on the work The
architects who designed the buildings
were selected because of their great
experience in connection with the la
boratories they have constructed for
the Harvard Medical institute They
also erected the governments insane
hospital in Washington.
To many visitors perhaps the most
interesting feature of the institution
is the animal department. 1t is out

power house, and connected with the
institute by "a fireproof subway.

throughout the world.
DR.. Simon Flexner, formerly Of the
University of Pennsylvania, will be the
resident director of the institution, and
he will not only aim to duplicate the
most advanced features of the famous
institutions of Europe, but will aim to
make new American discoveries in all
directions in medical science.
The main building, together with
the power house and animal quarters,
and other buildings, have fine loca-
ton on the old Schermerhorn estate,
covering three blocks stretching along
the East river. The labratory, or main
structure, 60x135 feet, is a plain, i'm
posing edifice of Indiana limestone.
1t rises five stories from the basement
and upon the roof behind the parapet
is an extra story built of fireproof ma
terial incased in copper, to be devoted
to special purposes in connection with
the animal features Of the laboratory.
Entering from the west, on the main
tiers and the assembly room, where the
surgeons will hold their conferences.
It is sort of lecture room, fitted with
blackboards, stereopticon exhibitions
and seats for 100 persons. There are
a spacious library room, finished in
quartered oak, reading room ad-
joining, also two small studies, hand
somely finished.
The second floor is devoted to the
chemical research laboratories, each
fitted with the most elaborate and up
to-date appliances. Some idea of their
extent may be had when it is stated
that 81 carloads of tables, desks, chem
ical hoods and other scientific furni-
ture have been made especially for the
institute by big manufacturing con-
Germ in the Catskills, owning 5000

An Important Battle Billed for
Next Friday Night.
The Kid Will Test His Skill
Against the Mexican.
IN Los ANGELES RING.
Weigh in at 1873 Pounds at 6
O'clock That Evening.
Winner Then in Position to
Demand Good Bouts.

Chicago, Feb. 5.-Probably the most
important battle for nonchampionship
affair staged for some time, will be that
between KID Herman and Aurelfo
Hererra, scheduled to take place at Los
Angeles ON Friday night. The match
was brought about by a series of battles
between Herman and Eddie Hanlon and
Herrera and Young Corbett When
Manager MeCarrey. of the Pacific Ath-
letic club, under whose auspices Friday
nights battle viii be held, matched
Herman and Hanlon, ne also arranged
a match between Corbett and Hererra,
with the understanding the RESPECTIVE
winners meet to decide the fistic super
iority Of the quartet. It was practically
understood, however, that the battles
were to be fought at 100 pounds, but
when Herrera. defeated Corbett and the
question of his meeting Herman was
preached, he refused to match at
weight less than 1913 pounds, weigh in at
8 Q clock on the evening of the contest.
This was asking Herman to give
away considerable weight, as he can
fight at 128 pounds weigh in at the ring
side, but rather than lose the match he
accepted the Nexican's terms and con-
ditiOns that will send them into the
ring as light weights.
AS previously mentioned the battle
is a nonchampionship affair, but the i'm
portance of it lies in the fact the win
ner will be in a position to demand a
fight with either Jimmy Britt or Bat
Ting Nelson, neither of whom can
dodge behind the stereotyped excuses of
'tget a reputat ton or ''he is no drawing
card OF course, it is not expected
that the winner will draw the amount
of, money that did Nelson and Britt at
Colma. last September, and it is doubt
full if Jimmy and Battling Nelson could
draw the same amount again. but either
of the last named fighters against the
winner of Friday nights contest can
battle for sum of money well into
five figures, which is not to be sneezed
at.
The outcome of the fight seems diff
cult to predict, despite the fact that
Herman's Chicago admirers pick him to
win handily. There is no doubt the
KID is the more scientific and the
better two-handed fighter, but it should
be remembered that the Mexican carries
a sleep producer in his right mitt which,
if it lands anywhere near the right spot,
it will be all off with Herman, except
the tollfhg of the fatal 10 seconds.

Lincoln. Kan, Feb. 5.-Lincoln, it is
claimed, has more representative Demo-
Gratis than any other town in the Sixth
congressional district. Western Kansas
is more democratic than eastern Kan
sas. One can scarcely pick out the
bankers, lawyers, merchants or even
preachers from their appearance. The
town of Lincoln is. a good pace to illus
trate this principle
The cashier of Saline Valley bank,
Familiarity called Abe Marshall, though
worth about half a million dollars, is
about the same as when he was an or
orator working for $40 per month for the
railroad company.
A. W. Elgin, cashier of the Lincoln
State bank, and principal stakeholder
of it, is just Allen Elgin He was
reared by good southern parents, and
when young boy was al1ured into a
cowboys life on the plains of Texas and
Kansas. He was with the toughs of the
period and yet he shows no traces of his
career of those days. He appears Meth
err like a rowdy nor a banker but is just
plain. pleasant gentleman with the
mild habits of the south and the frank
manners of the west.

the business men here are easily ap-
proachable by anybody and they think
not of mans worth, clothes, or per-
sonal appearance. The democracy Of
central and western Kansas is one of its
strongest features.
And there is George Abel, one of the
best known lawyers in the north half Of
Kansas who attends every state meet

tor on the ticket. But he don't care; his
flag is still there.
John Whaleh is another of the Lincoln
county Democrats. He made splendid
postmaster for Lincoln under President
Cleveland. Both Abel and WhaIen are
prominent in their business avocations
in Lincoln, the former a lawyer and
the latter an implement dealer.
