On one occa- sion. for some alleged dereliction, so slight as not to be mentioned in the re- ports. Colonel Stewart bawled out to 8 first sergeant of 29 years that he was dirty, insolent pup" On other occa- sons. for the slightest neglect, he has charged his enlisted men with open mu- tiny, and in a thousand ways known to the hopeless martinet made himself terror to his post. the same. Entertaining some feeling of der his command, he ordered him to take an isolated substation of the post, al though the lieutenant had just finished long turn there and two other officers were available for the unpleasant as
 signment who had been enjoying the comparative comfort of the main post
 The department got wind of this order and directed the colonel to relieve the lieutenant of his arduous duty. It is2ot unlikely that the colonel's treatment pr the lieutenant in forcing him to an iso- lated post had much wieght with the de- partment when the question of sending Colonel Stewart to Fort Grant was under discussion. In the same way, the com mandant's behavior toward his superiors led them to report that he was either incapable of understanding an order or was stubborn almost to the point of in subordination in refusing to be moved to

 Here are some of the things which 1909 has in store for the world:
 February, 1909-A warning to tho shah of Persia to be careful and take no risks.
 April-Mars culminates at St. Pet ersburg, warning the Czar to guard his person.

 August-Saturn will culminate, an evil augury for the Ruler of Persia.
 October-Mars will be on the nadir, warning the Car.

any utSITeu SeCtIOn.
 What impresses one in following Colo mel Stewards career to this point is the unanimity of the officers at the various posts in agreeing that Colonel Stewart was impossible" for his equals and his superiors while to all under his command he was a living scourge. The prejudice of West Pointers against a civilian ap- pointee, especially one with a creditable Indian war record, would scarcely be so comprehensive after fl years of service.

DALLAS, Tex, March S0.-A cloud
burst visited Dallas Saturday night,
and, after it drenched the city thor
ohghly, eased up a little and left in its
wake a steady rainfall that has gone
on uninterrupted ever since. The games
OF the Giants and Colts at Fort Worth

McGinnity has been severly attacked
by malaria, his temperature going as
high as 102 degrees during the night.

Match Will Take Place at Chi
cago for Championship Of !,
the World.

CHICAGO, March S0.-on Friday
night the Hackenschmidt-Go tch wrest-
ling match for the championship of the
world will be held in Dexter pavilion,
from present indications will be
witnessed by a tremendous crowd.
Hackenschmidt is training at the Chi
cago Athletic Association, while Gotch
is going through his preliminary work
in the gym of the Illinois Athletic Club,
200 feet away. Both men are reported
to be in excellent condition, and each
expresses himself as confident of sue
cess.
Gotch has a slight advantage in the
fact that the wrestling is to be catch
a~s-catch-can, a style with which Hack
enschmidt is unfamiliar. The latter
has, however, devoted much time to the
task of gaining an understanding of
the points of the style, and he and his
trainers are confident that he will sbe
proficient by the time the contest' is
held. Hackenschmidt has also prac-
tised extensively in devising methods
to break the toe hold Of Gotch, and de-
clares that he does not believe that it
win trouble him greatly.

LIVELY
ON ABE ATTELL-
NELSON FIGHT
Many Wagers Already Recorded
at Even Money for Tues
days Bout.

SAN FRANCISCO, March SO.-The
betting is now even money on the fif-
%teen-round battle between Abe Attell
and Battling Nelson, which will take
place tomorrow night before the
Washington Athletic Club, Sam
Berger's new organization. The betting
is quite lively. and in this respect it
may prove one of the liveliest bouts he
coast has seen in some time.
Nelson puts unlimited vim into his
training work, and it is believed that
he wants to correct the impression that
he cannot carry as full a head of steam
as formerly. While the Dane is hold
ing himself at the contract notch, Attell
is trying 10 add a couple of pounds.
Abe. who put in hard ticks during the
early days Of his training, is taking
things leisurely at Milletts. He hopes
to build up to 1875 pounds. Nelson de-
clares thai he win not be over 1873 in
the ring.

Manager Stallings said he would give
Newark a team that would make them
all hustle for the flag. but declined to
give out the names of the players that
he is expecting to be turned over to
him from big league clubs.
While in Wilmington the players will
go through their practise stunts every
morning and afternoon when the
weather permits. but as the local Tri-
Staters are also to practise on the same
grounds certain hours, wilt be assigned
to the players of each team to work
out.
The proposed exhibition games be-
tween Newark and the Wilmington
Tri-State team to be played on Friday
and Saturday are attracting a great
deal of attention among the fans and
will no doubt be largely attended.
Work was begun today at the New
ark ball grounds. A brand-new stand.
to be equipped with a thousand opera
chairs. will be constructed connecting
the old stand and the one behind first
base. A ticket Office will be built at
the Hamburg place entrance, and the

fact, ideal weather for baseball.
