Francisco.
Willie Britt, since the task of max
ing a match between the colord man
and the Dane fell upon his shoulders.
has insisted on repeating the story
of the forty-two round contest at
Goldfield so often and who has made
such study of the pictures taken at
that time that he rattles off the argu-
ment that the Battler forced Cans TO
take the count with such positiyeness
that one would imagine Willie had
done a Rip Van Wnikle since the last
contest between this pair and had
just awakened with the battle fresh
on his mind.
In the last round of the contest
when Cans is on the floor squirming
around with Siler bending over him
the Dane is standing but few PAGES
as straight as he ever stands and APP
parently anything but an all in. One
or two of these pictures have been
enlarged and placed on exhibition,
and like young drummer showing
his samples, Willie stands ready To
give an illustrated lecture on the
reasons why the Battler has the best
beat the champion.
The favorite plug for Brother Will
lie is, well no matter what the result
of the Goldfield fight, the fact that
Cans was on the floor while the Dane
was on his feet is sufficient evidence
to show me that we have good
chance with the wonder of the age.
Cans, ii is understood. spent last
night in Oakland and will leave this
evening for Hardin Springs. where he
will rest up bit prior to his COINS
into training for the contest. 1t /.
hard to get Cans to express an opin
ion as to what he will do or how hi
will win in the coming contest, bu
for this one there is one APPARENT,
clear thing, and that is. Cans will try
to win from his hated rival as soor
as possible.
Cans is being injured by the fac
that he is so much greater pugilisti
cally than any man of his class ant
under ordinary circumstances HI
might let the Dane make a showing
but even the stolid old Cans has fir'
running through his veins and thi
fire has been aroused so often by thu
talk and actions of the Dane that Mr.
Cans of Baltimore will end the com
ing contest with a punch If he can.
Sometimes when fighters shak
hands prior to a battle there Is som
! feeling to it, but with Cans and Mel
son it will be because the public de

AS the date draws nearer, society
folks of the district and those who
delight in the pleasures of the dance
are looking with more and more eN-
nectancy to the affair which is to be
given by the young men of the Ne

rangements for the affair, Mr. Per-
kins, in charge of the time Office at

Run Down by Train

Spring Valley, N. Y, Feb. A
foamed-specked pair Of horses that
tore through the streets early this
morning, dragging between them a
splintered wagon pole, brought to this
village the news of a grade crossing
accident in which nine members Of its
most prominent families were either
killed outright or frightfully injured.
The run away came to stop at the
livery stable of George Young, from
whom they had been hired the day
before to take party of men and
girls to basketball game at Nyack.
Returning in the early hours of to-
day the wagon load of merry-makers
was run down at a west Nyack
crossing by an Ontario and Western
express train. Four of the parties
were instantly killed; two died while be-
ing removed to the Hudson County Hos
pital, at Hoboken, N. j., and the
others lie in a serious condition at that
institution tonight.
The dead:
George Reith, aged 80, Assistant
Superintendent of the telephone Office
and manager of the Spring valley
basketball team.
Nelson May, aged 19. who drove
the team.

The responsibility for the accident
is in dispute. The survivors connot

May Die of His Wound

Philadelphia, Feb. 23-Frederick J..
Brennier, who says he is son Of VIM.
Brennier, former law partner of A..
b. Parker, of New York, and lives in
Kingston, N. Y, attempted suicide
tonight by shooting himself in the ab-
domen. Brennier came here about a
week ago and registered at a hotel
patronized by theatrical people. He
told the detectives he followed an ac-
tress here and that she left Saturday
with her company.
The would-be suicide, who is about
twenty-four years old, is in critical
condition. Among his effects were
found several postcards supposed to
have been sent to him by the actress
in the case, which bore the texts,
"Get wise" and Don't be a lobster. "

Suicides

Denver, COL, Feb. 23-The bodies
of Mrs. Mary E. Nixon, aged sixty,
her daughter, Mrs. E. N. Canter,
aged thirty-five, and the twelve-year-
old son of the latter, were found yes
terday in the cottage which had been
their home in this city. They had
sponges tied over their mouths and
noses and death evidently resulted
from chloroform or ether.
Mrs. Canter is known to have been
mentally deranged and the police be-
lieve she was the prime author of the
deed, inducing her mother to commit
suicide with her, or chloroforning
both her son and mother before ad-
ministering the drug to herself.

BY the Goal Oil Route

Allentown, Pa. Feb. 23-C Choosing
fire as the medium of death, Miss
Emma Fink, of Slatington, committed
suicide at Slatedale to-day in a most
tragic manner.
Standing where she could see the
ruins of her old home, which was de-
stroyed by fire about year ago, she
poured coal oil over her clothing and
then set fire to her skirt.
Miss Fink called on friends there to-
day, and after visiting the grave of
her mother she went to the house of
her friends, where she secured a can
of oil. Going to where she could see
the site of the burned house she set
herself on fire.

Assassinated a Priest


Denver, Col, Feb. q. Father Leo
Heinrichs was shot and killed when
administering the sacrament at early
mass in St. Elizabeth's Catholic
Church, Eleventh and Curtis streets,
this city, at 6 O'Clock this morning.
Kneeling at the altar between two
women, Giuseppe Guaranacto pressed
the muzzle of revolver against the
body Of the priest, after receiving the
consecrated water, and shot the priest
through the heart.
Exclaiming, "My God! my God!"
Father Leo fell prone in front of the
altar and died without another word.
With scream, the assassin sprang
into the aisle and dashed to the door,
For moment the hundred or more
persons in the church were dazed,
then became panic-stricken. Women
tainted and many became hysterical.
Several men rushed to the aid of the
priest, and others started in pursuit
of the murderer. Among the latter
was Patrofman Daniel Cronin, who
overlook the fleeing Italian on the
steps.
The Italian attempted to shoot
the policeman, but was foiled and
overpowered only after desprate
fight, in which several men went to
the assistance of the officer. The
murderer was hurriedly removed to
the city jail, and as threats of sum-
mary justice were made by men in
the crowd who quickly gathered in
front of the church, Chief Of Police
Delaney called out the reserve force
of patrolmen.
Deputy Coroner Hayes took charge
Of the priests body, which was re-
moved to the city morgue.
A single hole in the white COM
munion robes of the priest showed
that the bullet had gone straight to
the heart.
The bullets remaining in the revolv-
or had sharpened points.
The murderer made the following
statement:
81 just went over there because l
have grudge against all priests in
general. They are all against the
workingman. I went to the COM
munion rail because could get bet
ter shot. I did not care whether he
was a German priest or any other
kind of priest. They are all in the
same class.
81 left Italy three months ago;
went first to Central America, and
then came to the United States and to
Denver. am an anarchist, and am
proud of it, I shot him, and my only
regret is that could not have shot
the whole bunch of priests in the
church. I am shoemaker, but have
not worked since coming to Denver. F."
