SEVERAL YEARS TO
EQUIP MILITIA
Process Must Cover a Iona
Period.

Washington, June 1S.-The militia
board appointed by the secretary of
war under the recent act of Congress
providing for reorganization in the
states and territories completed it's
work.
The board has reached the conclus-
ion that the organized militia can not
be equipped fully for field service for
100000, the limit allowed by law in
any one year, and the opinion of the
members is that the process of equip
ment must be carried on for a number
of years before it can be completed
The recommendation is made that
beginning July l, issues of equipment
under the act be pro rata on the basis
of the organized enlisted strength of
the militia as shown by official re-
ports.
Gen. James A. Drain of Washington
was made chairman of the board.

AVERT TROUBLE
War Vessels Will Take tackles
To Panama for the
Elections.
TROUBLE is ANTICIPATED.
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, sEcRE-
TARY TAFT AND SECRETARY
ROOT ALL AGREE PRESENCE OF
MARINES is GOOD SAFEGUARD.

New York, June 1S.-A dispatch
from Washington to the Herald is as
follows:
Two battle ships, the New Hamp-
shire and Idaho. have been ordered to
take 500 United States Marines to CO.
Ion on the Isthmus of Panama The
New Hampshire will leave New York
Saturday with about 400 hundred ma
rines, besides nearly her full compile
ment of men, and the Idaho will fol-
low from the same port on Sunday.
Both vessels will return as soon as the
marines are landed.
Decision to send the battle ships
was only reached yesterday, when 1t
was pointed out that the sooner the
marines go to the isthmus the better
it would be for those who are anxious
to avert trouble
President Roosevelt. Secretary Taft
and Secretary Root all agree that the
presence of considerable number of
marines is the only safeguard against
an uprising on July II, when the elec-
tions are held. Besides. their presence
will insure fair voting at the polls and
a just count of the ballots.

PARIOl OF
HENRY YOUTSEY
Brother of Ex-Governor Goe-
bel Appeals to Kentucky
People.
CALLS HIM AN ASSASSIN.
SAYS THAT ALTHOUGH OTHER
MEMBERS OF MURDEROUS
BAND HAVE BEEN PAROLED
YOUTSEY SHOULD NOT BE.

Frankfort KY. June 18.-No mercy
Is to be shown Henry Youtsey by Ar
thur Goebel, brother of William, who
was assassinated here eight years ago.
His position is explained in letter to
Editor w. P. Walton of this city This
is GoebePs first utterance since the
pardon of Powers and Howard. 1t
follows:
Il note in your issue of the 14th
that you say some people think the
prison commission ought to parole
Youtsey. | feel that this is not really
meant and | ask the people in their re-
sentiment not to go to an opposite ex-
IRENE and indorse such a sentiment.
The fact that two of the assassins
have been pardoned and have had
their legal punishment ended is no
assassins in or out of prison should
be Dardoned.
You will agree with me that from
the standpoint of legal justice and the
rights of the commonwealth, not to
mention the rights Of the kin Of Will
liam Goebel, there is absolutely no
reason why Youtsey should be pardon
ed or paroled. but on the contrary
every reason why he should be pun
ished to the fullest extent of the pen
atty the law has inflicted upon him.
Remember that Youtsey did not turn
states evidence until after he was
convicted, and remember, also, that
the commonwealth never requested
him in any manner to turn states evil
dence, but that he voluntarily did SO,
as he stated, as matter of con-
science. According to the evidence
adduced against Youtsey in his trial,
he is guilty and should be punished.
According to his own confession he is
as guilty as the man that fired the
shot and should be punished.
Il hope that neither you nor any
other friend of William Goebel will
ever lend approval to a petition for
a pardon or a parole for any of the
assassins of William Goebel, Youtsey
or anyone else.
Is Murderous State.
Kentucky is the most murderous
state in the union. According to the
latest publications on criminology
Kentucky is the most murderous COM
munity in the civilized world except
Mexico. The abuse of the power of
pardon and parole, the use of said
powers as a political asset to be trad
ed off for votes is what has largely
made Kentucky. So it would be a
blessing to Kentucky If the right of
pardon and parole were absolutely
done away with for the next quarter
of a century.
The drama of the assassination of
William Goebel is not ended | do not
want to see Youtsey or any other of
the assassins pardoned Or paroled
and | beg you to oppose at all times
any such proposal

Why" Maple?

Why do Maple Syrup?
Not a mixture of cane syrup and maple, but
the pure Vermont maple. We boil it into the
wheat before taking.
The main reason is-the children. They like
the flavor of the maple better than anything else
that is good for them.
We are making a food which we know to be
the best for them Isn't it wise, for all concerned,
10 induce them to like it2
Mapl-Flake is the perfect food
1t is so because of our process consuming
IS hours. Because we spend six hours in steam
cooking. Because of our method of curing
Because we toast the thin fakes, for 80 minutes,
in a heat of 400 degrees.
There are numerous wheat foods-numerous
faxed foods. But we spend four times the time
that some others spend in the preparing.
The result is the starch is digestible
Raw starch gives scarcely more nourishment
than chalk. Half-cooked starch Yields half it's

OF AGREEMENT TODAY
Kaufman Recently Accepted Terms
for Scrap with Johnson Before
Mccarey's CIub-Match
as Good as Made

If articles of agreement that have
been sent to Billy Delaney, manager
for Al Kaufman, are signed and re-
turned to Manager McCarey, as ex-
pected, Battling Johnson will get
chance to further prove himself as
heavyweight championship possibility
July "a in a match with the young
giant, AL Kaufman, whose knockout
record puts him in the same class with
johnson, almost. as a heavy-hitting
scrapper
McCarey secured the consent of john
son and Kaufman to the match and
drew articles of agreement, which were
signed by Johnson and mailed to De-
laney last Friday. 1t is expected that
they will be signed in the north today.
In the event they are signed, McCarey
will be notified by telegraph and will
proceed at once to arranging the pre-
liminaries and advertising the SUGGEST.
Such a match would be popular with
the fans Kaufman was the original
knockout kid until he tackled Jack
O'Brien, but he always has been rather
slow and awkward, thereby handicap
ping the effectiveness of his strength,
size, weight and punch. He Is game
and can take lot of punishment and
can administer a heap of that article
himself. AL is improving gradually
and should be able to put up an inn
proved fight, compared with his earlier
fights. He has done no lighting for a
long time and should be In condition to

Al Edwards Arrives In New York with
Story That He Had Finished
Tramp from Los Angeles
for $4,000 Purse

Members of the Los Angeles Athletic
club are indignant at the publication IN
New York newspaper of story 10
the effect that AL Edwards, q profess
sional pedestrian, had arrived in that
city and thereby had completed his part
of an alleged contract with the local
club whereby the club is represented as
offering him purse of $4,000 to walk
from Los Angeles to New York city
within a specified time. The story
quotes Edwards as saying that he had
such q contract and that he Is waiting
for the payment of the money for haV-
ing fulfilled his contract.
Secretary Henderson said last night
that he does not know EDWARDS. the
club never had any dealings with him,
never employed him to walk to New
York and does not owe him the $4,000
claimed to be due as a consideration
for having successfully made the foot
trip within the specified time.
The first intimation that Edwards
was making such claims came in let
ters to the club from persons residing
in cities along the route taken by him.
asking II he had such a contract with
the club corroborating the wild state
ments credited to Edwards by the New
York newspapers. Edwards may have
walked from Los Angeles to New York
in the time claimed for him, but he has
no contract or other obligation with
the club and the club did not sanction
the trip in any manner nor did Ii have
any part in the performance.

nine goose eggs as the closing salute
Of the series. He allowed only one
base on balls and registered the only
strikeout of the game, which is a re-
markable fact, as sixty-four batters
faced the two twirlers.
1t was a great game all the way,
one of those kind that the fans de-
light in witnessing. A total of seven
teen hits was secured by the two
teams, Oakland getting nine to eight
for the locals. Only three bases on
balls were given by the two pitchers
and two fast double plays We're made
by the visitors. Sharp fielding at all
times kept the score down to classy
proportions and 1t was pleasing to the
fans that the home team won the
game, which gave 1t the series with
Oakland and won back first place in
the pennant chase.

star, but he also led the team at bat

ANGELS DEPART FOR
LONG NORTHERN TRIP
Open Tomorrow at Oakland for Seven
Games--WilI Not Return Home
Until August 4-Team
Back In Form

With a lead of half game, almost
over the Portland bunch, the Angels
will begin their second northern cam
paign tomorrow afternoon at Oakland.
They will be gone until August A. when
they return home for three weeks at
the Chutes. before going north for the
third and last tour of the circuit this
season.
1t was feared by the fans that after
the team had made such sorry show
ing against Portland in the series that
ended week ago, 1t would be impos-
sible for 1t to go north better than
second in the pennant race, and would
have to fight on foreign diamonds for
the lead. But, just to prove that the
success of the Beavers at the Chutes
was a fiuke. the Angels won five in
seven games played with Oakland,
while the Beavers were losing to the
Seals.
1t is gratifying to note the return
to form of the boys and in the last
f1ve games played at Chutes they have
been showing Improvement of ma
ture that seems to justify Hen Berry's
opinion regarding the probability or
capturing the pennant. Hen never
lost faith in his team, even after the
opposition had administered seven
straight defeats to it on the local dia-
mond. He always has said that he
would win the rag and now 1t begins

RETURN MATCH
SEEMS ASSURED
MCFARLAND AND WELSH ARE
ASKING FOR 1T
NORTHERN PROMOTERS MAKING
BIDS BY TELEGRAPH
Both Boys Anxious to Tackle Third
Meeting Labor Day, and Jetfries
Has Made Liberal Offer on
Percentage Basis

After sleeping over the consideration
of the decision of draw in his ngnt
Saturday afternoon with FREDDIE
Welsh, 1t seems that Packy Mcfarland
has about decided to be philosophical
and accept 1t in good grace, as ne
should have done at first. He now is
talking about a return match, and as
Welsh also desires another crack at
the Chicago wonder 1t seems assured
that they will be rematched for Labor
day.
There is no cinch that the return
match will be fought in a local ring,
however, as Jimmy Coffroth and sam
Berger already are bidding for the re-
turn match and are offering Packy
and Welsh stiff guarantees for Labor
day engagement in the north. Packy
Is inclined to delay any definite reply
to the offer of Jeffries, seeming to be-
lieve that in doing to he will get all
three promoters to bidding against
each other and thereby receive more
money than he otherwise would be
able to command.
Welsh may be the stumbling block
to the hopes of the northern promoters,
however, as he is a bit shy Of trying
the Frisco game. He says he has been
accorded such fair treatment by the
big fellow that he is inclined to pre-
fer the JeffrIes club to all others. This
is most natural, as Freddie has fought
himself into the friendship of the en-
tire local sporting public, has made
himself a great card and he knows that
he will get a square deal, at least,
when he is fighting for Jeffries.
Packy has decided to take rest
for fortnight and will put in several
days at Catalina and later in seeing
the sights of Southern California. Man
ager Harry Gilmore, Trainer Pat Kin
ealy and Red Weimer, Packy's chum,
will be in the party. Packy has prom
Used that he will fight at least one
more battle on the coast before he re-
turns to Chicago, as his mother Is Wis
ting in Ireland and there Is no neces-
sity for him to return to the Windy
City for several months.
Revised reports of the receipts of the
fight are given out officially at $10,260
AS the boys were fighting on 80 per
cent basis each gets $2565 as his share.
However, Packy had a guarantee of
$4,000 for his share and the club had to
dig into its share for the remaining
$1435 for him. Had the big fellow been
disposed to be crooked he could have
saved about two-thirds of this $1435
by giving the fight to Packy.
