 PUNCH
Philadelphian Is Fouled By Turk After Battering Latter To Pulp-Fight Given to Victim-AII Bets Off,

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 22.-Phila- delphia Jack o'Brien was fouled by Abdul Malgal, il the fifth round of the fight here tonight and was so bad ly injured that he was unable to con- tinne. The clubs physician examined O'Brien and refused to let him go on. The referee awarded the fight to O'Brien and declared all bets of.
 O'Brien had agreed to stop three men-Ahdul Malgan, Jim Tremble and George Brown, in six rounds each. He took on Malgan first.
 The fight was huge farce all the way through. O'Brien battered the Turk all over the ring and had him covered with gore. The Turk did not strike a decisive blow until the one with which he fouled O'Brien. O'Brien had Malgan in a corner and was ham, mering him with vicious rights when the Turk swung a wild right that struck O'Brien low in the abdomen.
 The Philadelphian sank to his knees holding his stomach and gasping for breath The gong sounded while O'Brien was gasping. The crowd re. fused to leave the pavilion when the announcement was made and congre. gated about the ring side.

 Those of the crew who were still alive shared their food with others. There was not enough to go around and for "A hours not q morsel of food passed the lips of the unrorSunates.
 The survivors highly praise Prince Henry, who personally assisted th- women and had gloves provided for them. The prince wrapped his fur overcoat about one woman.
 The rescuers managed to get a line aboard the wreck and make the other end fast to the lighthouse. The sur vivors climbed down and were carried one by one through the surging water breast high, along the pier and placed in a small boat, whence they were lifted to the pilot boat.
 Captain Jansen says he was com- pelled to leave two women and 4 child aboard the wreck because they did not care to make the descent O. the rope owing to their completely exhausted condition. They appeared to be dying.
 Another attempt to reach the wreck will be made at low tide at o'clock tomorrow. The boatmen intend tt try to board the wreck, wrap up the two women and the children in water proof sacks and lower them into the boat

EDUCATOR TALKS
 LIN NATIONAL QUESTIONS
President Shurman of Cornell Discusses Various Matters Now Engaging Attention of United States,

OMAHA, Feb. -washington's birthday was generally observed by the suspension uf business and appro. priate ceremonies. The most notable event was the annual dinner of the Omaha Club at which the principal speakers were Dr. Jacob Gould Schur- man. president of Cornell University, and Colonel J. Hamilton Lewis, corp oration counsel for the city of Chicago. Schurman discussed Some Present Day Problems"
 Referring to the tendency of the present time toward the concentration of capital and the accompanying dan ger of trade monopoly, Schurman man said:
 "I suppose there is little doubt that in some industries, monopoly actually exists, and oppression is actually prac- ticed by making the people pay ex- tortiOnate prices"
 There are remedies within reach which may be used at any time. In the first place trusts, which are mon opolistic. or oppressive may be de prived of the advantages which they now enjoy as the result of tariff and other legislation. If the tariff schedule does actually enable the trust to ex- ploit the people for its own enrichment that tariff schedule is doomed, no mat ter how much talk there may be of the sanctitv of the tariff or of its solemn duI, of standing pat.
 "A second remedy is the better regu- lation of corporations and trusts in the interest of the public. Perhaps we may see the big corporations legal lv enioined from charging markedly different prices for the same com modity in different parts of the coun- try for the sole purpose of freezing out independent rfsals."
 The speaker discussed the recent revelations of corrupt practices in busi- ness and official life. He argued that the fault lay in the fact that the lead CTS lof the great industries have not developed as rapidly fin moral nature as in economic and financial capacities.
 The speaker then referred to the more radical remedies proposed for the existing evils. He denied that so far experiments in state municipal ownership Of public utilities had re- suited in any appreciable benefit al. though he did not oppose the system. He said however:
 "1 dread bureaucracy which the gov ernment ownership of American rail roads as proposed by MT. Bryan would make inevitable. No government in 1, the world Is qualified to go into the railroad business, least of all the United States which draws it's life from the party politics in which all ad- ministrations are necessarily short | lived" The speaker said he could not agree with the President as to the threaten l ing danger from swollen fortunes"
 "The danger I see" he said, comes not from the swollen fortunes, but | from stolen fortunes" \

TRAINED NURSE
Remarks About NOurishing Food.

"A physicians wife gave me a pack age of Grape-Nuts one day, with the remark that she was sure I would find the food very beneficial, both for my own use and fof my patients, I was particularly attracted to the food, as at that time the weather was very hot and I appreciated the fact that Grape Nuts requires no cooking.
 "The food was deliciously crisp, and most inviting to the appetite. After making use of it twice a day for three or four weeks I discovered that it was 6 most wonderful invigorator. l used to suffer greatly from exhaustion, headaches and depression of spirits, My work had been very trying at times and indigestion had set in.
 Now I am always well and ready for any amount of work; have an abund- ance of active energy, cheerfulness and mental poise. I have proved to my entire satisfaction that this change has been brought about by Grape-Nuts food
 seThe fact that it is predigested is a very desirable feature. have had many remarkable results in feeding Grape Nuts to my patients, and l cannot speak too highly of the food. My friends constantly comment on the change in my appearance, I have gained nine pounds since beginning the use of this food" There's a reason. " Read "The Road to Wellville' in pkgs
