HEARD ABOUT TOWN

Some folks are built tall and slim
and others are constructed on more
liberal plan. Among the latter is a
good, friend of mine whose smile is
contagious and who's one of the best
fellows that ever came down the pike
in these parts. He was cast in a
generous mold both. physically and
mentally. Not long since he was at
an evening gathering when chic
young miss remarked: "Say, Mister
B., if some one should lay you down
and roll you out, you'd be good deal
taller when you got up again." My
friend had to admit the truth of the
allegation. Guess who he is.
~''It isn't bit hard to 60 to sleep in
church," remarked a we'll known
citizen OF Sank Centre who OCCASION
ally strays within the portals of the
sanctuary. 81 dropped into the House
of God last Sunday and in less than
fifteen minutes I was nodding so per-
sistently that good many noticed
it. 1t wasn't the preachers fault; he
put up the finest kind of discourse,
but for, the life of nae l could not keep
awake. Perhaps twas the weather;
last Sunday was broiling hot. Any
way slept part of the time. That
was bad enough but to cap the
climax, right after service female
member of the choir came up to- me.
and remarked in a tone ; voice,
filled with scorn that she would
be ashamed of herself if she
dozed and: nodded through the.
sermon as 1 had done. Hereafter me
for the lakes on a sunny, sultry,
summer Sunday.

The steel bell that occupied the city
bell tower for several weeks on trial
has been shipped back to the owners.
AS the new bell metal bell recently
ordered by the city council has not
yet arrived, the council has secured
permission from the Methodist church
to use its bell in case of fire. 1t is
expected that the new city fire bell will
arrive soon and be placed in position.
Judge NJ. D. Taylor of St. Cloud was
in Sank Centre Monday morning to
listen to testimony in the case of
William w. Doty VS.. Emma 1. White
more and Amos Whittemore. The
plaintiff is the father of Mrs. White
more and brings action to set aside
the deed to forty acres of land in Mill
wood which had been given to the
defendants in. consideration of sup
porting him for the rest Of his life.
The parties did not agree, SO the
plaintiff claims, and that he was
abused and helpless. Defendants
deny any trouble between themselves
and the plaintiff. The parties to the
case were examined and one other
witness was heard. Court Stenogra-
pher P. M. Woodward took the testi-
mony. Attorney W. ]. Stephens of
Melrose appeared for the plaintiff and
NJ. C. Kelsey Of Sank Centre for the
defendants. The case will be argued
later. The Judge, stenographer and
Attorney Stephens returned home on
the ITO p. m. train the same day.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, July 2O.-While Abe At

ALE-AMERICAN EIGHT
WILL GO TO ENGLAND

Something decidedly novel in the rowing
world will be the selection Of an All-Ameri-
can eight to represent this country in the
regatta to be held in connection with the
Olympic games next summer. The Olympic
committee has decided against the admis-
sion of individual club crews and will In
sist that each country enter crew to rep
resent that country. This is the appiica-
ton of the same rule as that to be enforced
in the track and field games in which Out
one team can be sent from this country,
it to be selected after a series or Compel
tive tests held in different parts or the
country President James Pilkington OF
the National Association of Amateur oars
men will shortly appoint committee
which shall select and arrange Tor the
training of the American crew.
If this crew is properly selected and
trained it will be the first time that this
country has been properly or fairly rep
resented in an English regatta. We have
sent many crews to the other side, but
all have been from clubs or colleges All
explanation has been that the Americans
were called upon to meet, not a crew
made up from single club, but one re-
cruited from all England. This has al
ways been the charge made against the
Leander Rowing Clubs crews. Every OK
ford and Cambridge oarsman is eligible
for the Leander eight, and whenever
Englands rowing prestige is in danger
the Leanders draw from their member
ship of several thousand and thus save
the honor Of England.
When the University of Pennsylvania
eight went abroad In 1901 and all but de-
feated the Leanders the handicap under
which the Americans labored was very
evident from the fact that the Americans
averaged some ten years younger than
their English rivals and were selected

NEW YORK, July 2o.-Tommy Burns has
publicly declared that he Is not disposed to
raise the color line any longer, and that IL
any negro pugilist thinks he has a claim
on the heavyweight championship he can
come forward with a challenge In the regu-
lar way Jack Johnson intimated the day
after the Burns-S quires fight that he would
like 20 take Tommy's measure, and no one
doubts that he will be heard from without
much delay. II would. consequently, APP
pear that the next big fight will take place
between Burns and Johnson. but the prob
abilities are that several months will elapse
before the men can get together. Johnson
Is the only big man who is entitled to con-
test with Burns for the heavy supremacy
and there is no reason in the world why
the conqueror of the Australian should not
give Jack chance. All the others have
been given an opportunity to show the
public what they are worth. But as soon
as Johnson's name has been mentioned the
color barrier has been raised and the al
legged champions have rushed for the cy-
clone cellars.
A fight between Burns and johnson
would be watched with great interest by
sports all over the country but, OF course
Burns Will have TO meet others and he will
be a busy pug for the next year or two
Burns, II is understood, has a very poor
opinion OF Johnsons real fighting ability
and he fully expects to make short work
of him II he ever gets him into ring.
BOSTON, Mass, July 20.-Jack CTwin)
Sullivan has posted a forfeit of 81 600 to
bind a challenge to fight Tommy Burns
under any fair conditions. This forfeit is

from about fifty candidates. whereas the
Britons were recruited from a hundred
times that number. Under the present
rules the United States cannot make this
excuse in case of defeat, as their crew will
be picked from the best oarsmen from tho
American clubs.
1t is interesting to note that no provisio!
has been made to get any college oarsma.
In the American boat. the committee not
seeming to have thought of this. But why
should they not do so? The American
track team will be made up of college and
club men, and the former are sure to pre-
dominate. There is no doubt that the aver
age college eight could defeat any club
eight In this country. Therefore it seems
reasonable to believe that the American
boat could be strengthened by the pres
ence or college men. But 1t is open To-
question whether or not the collcgians
would consent to row with the club men,
And even If they did it would undoubtedly
be dlf1cult to pick the best, as there would
be no way of comparing them. The best
way out of the difficulty would be to let
the winners of the Poughkeepsie and New
London regattaS row against the All-Amer-
lean club crew selected. and the winner OF
this race selected TO represent the United
States next summer. The experiment IS
certainly worth a trial.

TROTTING HORSES
AT POINT BREEZE

been racing during the past week is hard
| to determine. as the reports up to date are
! silent on that point In the death OF the
trotter Carstairs at Scranton a few days
since from the bursting of a. blood vessel,
Mr.. Taylor has met with a severe loss. He
was sorrel gelding by Simmocolon. 2.13A,
and has shown a great deal of speed in
his races The brown stallion Montana
Guard the last heard from, did not seem to
be good as was expected of him earlier
in the season. AS he is bred right, being
by Ponce de Leon, 2.13, and has shown
himself in the past to be a race horse of
class he will doubtless round to before
the season closes.
Entries for the Leonardtown meet closed
July II. The purses range all the way from
$50 to 500 the lowest purse being for three
year-olds bred and owned in the county.
The meeting will begin July % and run
three days. The first day there will be a
three-year-old event, 80 trot and pace
and . Is trot and pace. Wednesday, July
~, the card includes a 24O trot and pace, a
three minute trot and pace and free-for-
all. AS at present arranged only county
horses are permitted to perform in these
events. Thursday, July p, there Will be a
40 trot and pace, go trot and pace for
county owned horses, and free-for-all trot
and pace. The purse in this 1ast-named
event has been fixed at 800, and 1t is ex-
pected that several Washington-owned
horses will participate, among the number
kushan and Mr.. Motifs new purchase,
Rara Avis. horse of more than ordinary
racing caliber.
Rara Avis is a powerfully made flea bit
ten gray, upward of sixteen hands high.
and has proved himself to be a consistent
race horse. In all the many races in which
he has appeared it is claimed that he has
always got a piece of the money. His
present record is 21S14 and he is about
fifteen years old.
Considerable local interest is being man.
ifested in a match race which is to be
pulled off next Wednesday afternoon be-
tween Phil Steubener's bay stallion Oak

to the echo when they came back to weigh
out, Garrison and King Fan, of course, re-

combers of that day
