INJURY WHY'S BABY RACE.
Defeats Craftsman, a Favorite, In Easy
 Fashion at New Orleans.

New Orleans, Jan. 22.--The opening event at the City park track, race at three furlongs for two-year-olds, was a big surprise to every one, and Injury was the one that furnished it. The public had both Craftsman and Irri- gator for good things" while prac- tically everything else in the race went to the post unbacked. The start wasn't any too good. This knocked several youngsters out of it at the beginning. Injury was off well, with Jockey Ro- sens assistance. In the stretch he closed strongly. and Craftsman, who was hard ridden by Notter, could not overtake him. Warden was third and was 30 to 1 in the betting. The win ners follow:
 First Race.-Injury. first; Craftsman, second; Warden. third.
 Second Race. Profitable, first; Aules, second; Rip, third.
 Third Race. - Estella C., first; The Thorn. second; McGregor, third.
 Fourth Race.-Blagg, first; First Pre- mium, second; Gold Proof. third.
 Fifth Race.-Lady Alicia, first; Paul, second; Rappah3nnock. third.
 Sixth Race.-Warner Griswell, first: Grenade, second: Debar. third.

TOMMY BURNS TALKS.

Tommy Burns, in far off England is the lion of the hour. But despat ches from this country keep remind ing him that one Jack Johnson, who fights in the heavyweight class when he can find someone foolish enough to act the role of an opponent, is stealing some of Tommy's thunder by repeat 'edly challenging Burns.
 But the worm will turn and at last Tommy, gOaded beyond endurance, has answered JOhnson's def. Burns will fight Johnson as soon as he re turns to America. We have TOmmy's word for it. But Burns, since his fights with Philadelphia Jack O'Brien. has become something of diplomat. Burns always keeps his word. If he says he'll fight Johnson, surely he means it. Here are his very words:
 I'll fight Johnson when return to America. And I'll whip him just as sure as my name is Tommy Burns!"
 But-Tommy Burns's name is not Tommy Burns; it's Noah BrussO!

ATHLETICS AT HOLY CROSS.
Not Restricted by the Faculty But
 Rather Encouraged.

Worcester, Jan 22.-Rev Thomas E. Murphy, s. J., president of Holy Cross college, at session of the Holy Cross Lunch club Monday ex- plained fully that the faculty instead of restricting athletics has done much towards encouraging them. It was expected that Father Murphy would make some important state- ment about athletics at the college.
 Two years ago the managers of the athletic teams at the college were given abundant notice of the coming of the rule prohibiting students from playing on the college teams" said Father Murphy. They had ample sime in which to prepare for it.
 The restriction had no disastrous effect on the baseball team of last season, and is having no disastrous effect on the baseball team of this season, and it would seem unfair to attribute an unsuccessful football team entirely to it.
 Tt is far from being true that there is any other faculty restriction and that we I.ay be we'll represented in athletics there is considerable faculty relaxation toward athletics at the college.
 "A new rule was introduced last year admitting 10 the freshman class students who gre not prepared in Greek, and helping them over their deficiency without delaying their en- trance to a college class, has enabled several athletes to register who could not have done so before.
 Another more recent concession to athletes is the permission granted this year. for tine first time, for the base ball team to make a southern trip before the opening of the sea- son.
 There have been material im- provements in the college, making a total of twenty rooms. The cur. riculum has been improved through the introduction of an added elec- tive course for seniors. namely, iuris- prudence for students who intend to study law. and three new courses for the students who intend to study medicine. namely. biology, or ganic chemistry and advanced labor. atory physics"

 0'Hagan For Lynn.

Fred Klobedanz announces that he has signed with the Brockton team for next season. He met with an accident last season, and in pitching he so injured his side and shoulder that it was stated he would probably never again pitch. He was with New Bedford at the time and the team gave him his release. He was not dis couraged. however, and Manager Flanagan of BrOckton had faith that this season would see the big sOuth- paw in condition for another cam paign. Therefore. according to Kobe dang. he has agreed to accept the man. ager's terms. He will begin his sea- son by doing indoor work, and believes that even today. if tue weather was right he could go into the box and pitch a fair game.
 Klobedanz went from Connecticut to Portland. Me. about 15 years ago. and with Candy I.achance. later first base man of the Boston An'aricans. the pair became crack New England battery. Later klobedanZ joined the Boston Nationals, and did good work for q time, but finally became heavy and foo slow for handling bunts. and he rejoined the minors. where he has done good work in the New England league till his accident put hiP on the shelf last summer. He can play first base on occasion, but he has hit ting ability. He made one of the long est home runs over the right center fence at Highland park ever made there. and in 1SaI. on the Centsr street grounds he achieved a home run with a drive far up on the hill behind the right field fence.

A little courage goes long way
in this world. No man, no matter
how brilliant, ever succeeded I'M
less he had courage. No city ever
grew and prospered unless those
in charge of its affairs and the bus
mess men generally had the cour
age to go ahead and do things.
Go to any city that has made great
advances in a short time and the
cause can be traced to dozen or
hundred citizens who were de-
termined to build a city and had
the courage and enthusiasm to go
ahead in spite of all drawbacks.
Chicago was mortgaged for all it
was worth to secure railroads and
other things necessary to the rapid
growth of a city and it has out
grown all other cities in the mid
die west. All that is needed to
make Yerington a city second to
none in the State is the courage
that never falters and enough en-
thusiasm to still the knockers.

In this connection Goodwin's
Weekly says: "Up to date the
present Presidential campaign is
the most Indifferent one in the his
tory of our Republic. Whatever
NAV come later, there is no enthu-
siasm now. Ask anyone if Mr..
Taft is not better equipped for the
office of Chief Magistrate than any
other candidate ever was, and the
Indifferent answer will be, Quite
likely Ask another if the fact
that though twice before beaten
and though Mr.. Bryan has talked
more than any other man, the fact
that when his party met to nomi-
nate a candidate and the clamor
was all for him, if that is not an
evidence of inherent strength, and
the answer will be, Possibly that
is true An exchange says:
THE campaign now going on is
one of the strangest ever witness
ed in the history of the game of
politics in this country. No one
seems to be excited; no one seems
to be depressed, and no one is par
ticularly enthusiastic one way or
another over the outcome, unless
it may be some chap who has fat

There is more interest now being
taken in the copper situation in
Nevada than ever before. This
especially applies to Yerington,
which is called the high grade cop
per camp of the west. For some
years all who have inspected this
region are united in the expression
of wonder at the vast resources
blocked out in this section, al
though the lack of many promo
tons and advertising has indirect
ly benefited, but nevertheless
stood off the worlds inspection.
It is definitely understood now
that railroad will be constructed
into Yerington, and that the smelt-
ers will Immediately reach compile
ton. In a word, this means that
Yerington will, at the actual real
ization of these projects, be one of
the greatest copper districts in the
known world. 1t is broad state
ment, but emphatically proven by
the numerous pleasing and reliable
statements made by mining men
who have made the production
and consumption of copper care
full study. In addition to these in
teresting facts, it is known fact
that the Guggenheim Exploration
company, United States Mining,
Smelling & Refining Co., and pos
sibly the Amalgamated Copper
company, are all placing nets in
the section for control of the sew
eral proven properties. Of these
properties, the Bluestone and the
Nevada Douglas are the leaders,
followed by many of the most
promising copper claims in the
west. This information is import
ant owing to the great interest
lately being manifested in the dis
trict, and the younger sister of the
section Buckskin. Unknown, and
at the present date somewhat ne
elected, this camp will be third

will be an important mineral to be
