WEDDING BELLS
FOR VETERANS

NEW YORK, May ia wedding
of great interest to army and navy
circles took ploce in this city today,
when Mrs. Mary II. Nicholson, widow
of Rear Admiral John WA. Nichol-
son, became the bride of General
James Grant Wilson. The wedding
was celebrated at the home of the
bride in West Seventy-ninth street and
was attended by many prominent Of
ficers of the army and navy.
General Wilson who is now seven
ty-five years old, and nearly twenty
years the senior of his bride, was mar
ried before, his first wife, whom he
married in 1869, being a Miss Cogs-
well, descendant Of Peter Stuyve-
SAINT. -lSiEI
General Wilson has been known as
an orator as well as a soldier. In
| 1857 he went to Chicago and founded
the first literary journal published in
the northwest. In 1852 ne was COM
missioned major in the Fifteenth Illi-
nois cavalry, becoming colonel soon
afterwards. During the presidency
of General Grant he was in charge of
social arrangements at the White
House. 1t is an interesting coinci-
dence that when General Wilson was
a colonel under General Grant one of
his most intimate friends was Admiral
Nicholson, the husband of Mrs Mich
olson, whom General Wilson has now
made his bride.

BALL PLAYERS
GOOD EATERS

That baseball stimulates the appe-
tite is fact which few hotel men or
boarding house keepers will deny.
And those who have seen some of the
big fellows line up at the table after
a game have marveled at the capacity
tests. 1t has been claimed that ball
players are surpassed III the eating
line only by harvest hands This is
al bit big-probably too big. But there
is something that tends to show the
size of the appetites: Harry Pulliam
when he was running the old Louis
vile club, once attempted to put the
players on the European PLAN
When the bill was handed him for
the first meal by the New York hotel
proprietor Pulliam nearly tainted.
Wagners feed came to $1425, "Pete'
Dowling's $12 and the rest of the
bunch averaged about IS. There was
a switch. TIE American plan was
quickly adopted.
Walter Tharntan. a pitcher. who
started with Arson several years ago,
Is credited with the highest table
average. Thornton, so they say,
could spot any player two lamb chops
few potatoes and few other sides
One not summer day he was pitching
in Philadelphia. After every two In
nings he ate sandwich, and about
the eighth inning he delayed the game
bv securing for piece Of pie.
"Rube'' waddell is reported to be
past master at the table He trains
on cocoanut pie. Caney. who played
for Louisville two seasons also has
a huge appetite. The story goes that
Caney and the pitcher took a drive
one day and were caught at nightfal
miles away from their hotel There
was negro cabin by the roadside
and they halted there to ask tn a negro
NANNY" to get them supner. Cun

football sport will now, not turn their
attentions to the observance of base

In order to insure a full schedule

WALLA WALLA
SHOOT OPENS
Pete Lomax Of Lewiston
Manager; Local Team
Arrives

The big shoot given under the aus
,ices of the Northwest Sportsmen's
association at Walla Walla, which
commenced Wednesday morning and
/. scbeduled to continue three days,
Is now occupying the attention of
shoot fans of the city. Lewiston has
q, team of four men shooting for hon
ors. They are C. M. Day, ]. Queens
herv Leon Porter and ]. S. Turner.
The two latter men left here Monday
morning for WALL Walla.
Lewiston is taking an especially
great interest in the affair, because
foe shoot is being managed by a
lewiston man, Pete Lomax. A re-
mort from Walla Walla says:
Representatives of the various gun
clubs are arriving in Walla Walla for
the shoot which commenced We'd
nesday and lasts for three days. 1t
is thought at this time that over $50
contestants will be present and pre-
variations are being made to hold
one OF the DlBGSSI lOui hditiOh1S CNCA
held west of the Mississippi river.
Among the most distinguished per-
sons who are in the city is John Boa
of New Haven. Conn, who came here
to represent the winchester Arms Co.,
of that place: Pete Hollohan of Twin
Falls, Idaho, the best known shot n
the northwest; Pete Lomax who will
take charge of the shoot; w. A. Rob-
ertson from California, and Frank
Howe of Portland. 1t is claimed that
John Boa is the best shot gun shot ir
the world, but he is also good rife
shot and took second place in the
rife tournament at Siegrist last year

DIAMOND
BOXING
WANTED JEFF:
TO FAKE FIGHT
Men never quit being boys.

This is particularly true of pugilists
Most of 'em are longtcn gah and many
are short on common sense. All this
crops out since the Burns Brien
foot-race at Los Angeles. Both near
scrapers are getting back at each
other like lot of school boys.
Now comes Billy Gee of Chicago,
one time manager OF Burns, and says
that the Canuck offered Gee a per-
centaGe If he could get John Willie,
the man with the hroadside pants,
to lay down to Burns. Gee. with Il
remarkable stretch of soul, declined,
and now that the smell of the Burns
nostrils, comes forward like a whip
ped cur and makes public the dirty
proposition.
That isn't all. Burns. hearing that
Gee had peached on him, comes out
fers to bet $1,000 that Gee can't prove
the tale. And there you are.
More mud is thrown than lays on
the lanes of lonely hamlet in mid
winter And the public gets hit In
the eye once in while, If not oftener,
with that same mud.
Here's another unwelcome echo Of
the Burns-O'Brien costly joke. Big
Jim Jeffries, the biggest and best,
and so far the squarest man in the
game speaks out loud and says that
Burns came to him not long ago and
said that he could put jeff in the way
of making $4,000 if the husky chap
would lay down to Burns.
Jeff says he laughed at Burns. He
must have. He ought to have made
that cold deal public at the time. Then
Burns would have been a dead one for
keeps.
Echo some morel Several sports,
WEIGHED out Of $50 each at the Burns
O'Brien fiasco, are suing for the re-
turn of their money. The way It
looks now the game is queered for life
in the City of the Angels.
And all because a bunch of four
fushers were looking for the best end
of it.-Examiner.

OPPORTUNITIES OF
ROUND MOUNTAIN
WHOLE CAMP Is PRODUCTIVE
AND NOT An IDLE
MAN.

The best thing about Round
Mountain, in my opinion. IS that the
advancement in the mines is ahead Of
that Of the town.
This is the judgment Of James II.
Akin Of the Tonopah assay office.
who has just returned from the camp
Yon can find paintings any place
0 go, said Mr.. Akin, and the
mines which have been developed
to any degree at all show up wonder
fully we'll. They have struck a fine
ore body at the 250-foot level Of
the Sphynx. which is the same as they
found above and which extends clear
to the surface II pans fine and as
SAYS as well. They have a fine look
ing ledge on the Scotty lease Of the
Great Western They followed a
stringer from the surface for a depth
81 ten feet when they encountered
another stringer coming in al right
angles and the intersection opened
into a large vein which looks as Il
Il might be the Sphinx ledge.
The sunnyside IS the real thing.
s body Of ore was encountered on
the 200-foot incline which was found
farther up and which gives finer
values. The entire vein viii ASSAY
very well and here are seams Of
tale running through it which viii
give marvellous values.
"On the Daisy there has not been
50 much development as on the
others. but there is lots Of free gold
and with development there is no
doubt that it will be one of the best
mines in the camp. The Fairview,
which adjoins the Daisy on the east,
Is also in ore. The latter was en-
countered just before l left. What
the values were | did not learn, but
II certainly looked well.
The whole camp from every view
point is looking in the best of con-
dition. and there is not an idle man
in It.. There is a four-foot Hunting
mill running day and night and has
more work than 1T can take care of.
The ore runs Sc free that here the
tailings amount to only a trace. In
addition to this the Sunnyside has
nearly completed a two-stamp mill
which will have a capacity Of thirty
tons a day. and It looks as If this
will have to be increased in the very
near future"
