TEX RICHARD
in A new ROLE

Tex Richard, who won extended
fame as promoter of the Gans-Nelson
Goldfield fight and who tried to pull
off another meeting of the two men
at ElySthis fall, has added more
laurels to his crown by acting as ref
cree in an amateur and totally i'm
promptu one-round go between two
of his fellow directors in the Raw
hide Western railroad
Richard, who has just come from
Rawhide, is very modest about his
exploit, and Thursday night at the
st. Francis was reluctant to talk
about it, but from what he did say,
it evident that there was no
stalling on either side and that the
fight would have far exceeded the
famous forty-three round contest, if
Richard himself had not stopped it.
Hicks and Reed were the combat
ants The latter is well known here as
Charles Wesley Reed, the attorney,
formerly of this city. He has the
contract for the grading of the new
road, which is to furnish Rawhide an
outlet for its ores. Hicks is also a
director in the company.
The fight occurred in a room in
Rawhide. Richard was the only eye
witness. According to his story, one
of them led off with a shorter and
uglier word, the other countered
with right to the jaw and then
there were three minutes of rough
house. Both men are heavy and their
blows told When Richard finally
succeeded in calling time he was COW
cred with blood himself and the
other two we're not handsome. Rick
ard said it was draw, but thought
Reed showed the more science.
Richard says he doesn't know
what caused the row, but through
the Intervention of friends the two
men are once more on speaking
terms. Whether either will seek a
return match remains to be SEEM

How a "SeoId" Used to Be Punished In

1t is interesting to conjure up a pic.
ture of "ducking" as practiced in
England at the end Of the eighteen I'll
century.
When the ''scold" had been properly
tried and convicted. she was escorted
by a crowd of her neigh bors-in fact,
by the whole viIlage-to the nearest
pond. and the greener and Sinner the
pond the better. A long plank was
produced. at one end Of which was the
ducking stool. and in this the scream
ing. struggling victim was securely pin
toned.
The chair end of the plank was then
pushed far over the edge of the pond
and at a signal it was tilted deep into
the green ooZe until the scold was
completely immersed.
When the dripping, half drowned wo
man was raised TO the surface again
to the jeers and laughter Of the on
lockers 1t can be imagined that her
tongue wagged to some purpose. Aft.

subdued, and after a third or fourth
she was as penitent a woman as the
village contained and was allowed to
proceed home a sadder and wiser wo-
man until the next time.-London Tit.

Man Who Is Serving rs Years
Sentence Named by So
CiaIist Labor Party.
HE COMMITTED MURDER.
IN NOMINATING SPEECH PRE-
SENTING MARTIN r. PRESTONS
NAME, DE LEON SAYS HIS
CRIME WAS NO DISHONOR.

New York, July 6.-Candidates for
president and vice president of the
United States were nominated and a
platform was adopted by the National
Convention of the Socialistic Labor
party here Sunday. The ticket nam
ed is as follows:
For president. Martin r. Preston of
Nevada for vice president, Donald
Munro. of Virginia.
The nomination of Preston for pres
ident was unanimous. The candidate
was placed in nomination by Daniel
DeLeon, who characterized the man he
was naming as IAN honest working
man, not professional working man"
And added: The name of that man is
Martin r. Preston, and he is now in
Jail at Goldfield, Nevada. Preston
is in Jail today for conduct that is
honorable, and which no workingman
should be ashamed Of
De Leon explained that Preston had
been sentenced to % years imprison.
ment for shooting a restaurant keeper
in Goldfield three years ago during a
strike. Preston, De Leon asserted
had acted as the protector of defense
less girls, and by SO doing had en-
ragged a restaurant keeper named Sill
yer. Silver, Mr.. De Leon said, was
shot by Preston while threatening &c
kill the latter. Mr. De Leon said he
knew that Preston had not reached

President of the United States must
be, but he declared that made no diff

Staubach's Idea That d. & w.

CLAIMED THAT THE CITY
SHOULD NOT DISCRIMINATE
AGAINST ONE COMPANY FOR
ANOTHER.

1t was stated today that at the coun-
Gil meeting this evening the various
phases of the traction question will
come up for discussion. Council and
the board of public works hold differ
ent views on this subject and it is
possible that some interesting events
will be pulled off.
President George Staubach of the
board of public works, smarting under
the statement recently published in
the Palladium that the board of pub
lie works had postponed consideration
of the Dayton e Western franchise
the consideration of which is being
cause of iealousies and internal dis
cords, has now come out with the
statement that the real reason why
the board has delayed taking actor
on the matter is because the board
will never consider a franchise unless
the Dayton & Western pays for it
This statement was made, presumably
to pacify the disguised and Indignant
shippers but it proved a boomerang
LOT the Only 0lSCeTHdDie effect IL MAJ
had so far has been to stir the wrotl
of the shippers to little higher de
gree.
Such a statement is absolutel,
ridiculous but to be expected from the
source where it originated" stated
prominent business man today. "Th
traction lines and railroads are tn
backbones of our prosperity and t
