Nelson reverses the question and
claims that he will stop the wonder
ful colored champion when they meet
In their IS round contest, July 4. Be-
tween these two extremes there is
endless material for debate. The
question is frequently asked II Mel
son has not gone back since he fought
Cans at Goldfield that hot Septem-
Der afternoon when the two men
struggled for two hours and As min
utes' and the decision went against
Nelson on claim Of foul, which the
referee allowed - -
The friends Of the Dane ask #
Cans has not gone back during that
time, especially In view of the fac,
that he Is six years older than Mel
son and has been In the ring five
years longer. He acknowledges to
II years Of service inside the ropes,
while Nelson fought his first battle
IL years ago. In that time Nelson
has seen much rougher service, as
Cans with his greater boxing skill
mas taken comparatively little pun
1shment. This is shown in his I'M
marked features, his nose, ears and
teeth not having suffered as have
those OF HIS opponent.
Cans said today that he would not
box any more during the week, as he
thinks his present condition Is inst
about right. Nelson was SURPRISED
when he heard this, but says Cans
knows his own business best. Mel
son Is In the pink OF condition and
confident Of winning. Cans is still

BOY WAS sPELLBoUND.
RattIer Had His Eye and the Gillette
 Party Got Fright.

For many years 1t was the ambi- ton of William M. Gillette, clerl. of the district court, to get to the top of West peak, which Is the very top of the Meriden mountain, four miles beyond the Hubar park in Meriden. A day or two ago he realized his ambi- tion and he was given cause to re- member the achievement for many a day. He was accompanied by his wife and boy, Mansfield, and his brother-in-law and his wife, MT and Mrs Roland Jenner. The two men after reaching the top of the peak fingered to recover their breath ands then began the descent, telling the women to go ahead. They had been walking about ten minutes when the men overlook the women and the child, and MT Gillette at once saw that something very unusual had Oc- cured. The women seemed to be spellbound, looking at the little boy, whose gaze was directed toward rattleSnake that afterward was found to be about two and half inches in diameter.
 A move on the part of the child would have startled the snake and mischief might have been done. Gradually MT Gillette removed the boy from danger and the entire party breathed freely again. They were looking at the snake from a safe dis tance when two young men came along and were shown his snakeship basking, coiled up on a high stone. One of the men took up a good sized rock and with we'll directed blow killed the snake instantly. It was found to have eleven rattles. The strangers took the snake, one of them remarking that it was just what he wanted.

GERARDl'S COUNSEL
Will Be Ready 10 Bsye Case
 Tried TO.MOrr0W.

The case against Canio Gerardi, charged with attempted criminal as sault upon Mrs Frederick A. Tyrrell on Chestnut Hill road Sunday even ing, will be tried tomorrow in the city court. The case was down for hearing to-day and the state was ready to proceed, but it developed that the accused had changed coun- sel and therefore was not ready to go ahead. He will be represented by Bauby and McEvoy. It has turned out that his alleged admissions to the police are not of such vital conse- quence to the state as at first ap- peared. All he has admitted, it is said, is that he was on the scene of the assault and did accost Mrs Tyr rell, but not for the purpose she seemed to have in mind and which prompted her to discharge her 22 calibre revolver at him, hitting him on the right temple with one butler.
 There was case somewhat like this in the city court about a year ago. A man not understanding the language of the country found him. self in the suburbs late one evening and accosted woman who was going home merely for the purpose of asking her as to his whereabouts, and she let fly at him with stone.
 What Gerardi's defense is to be Mir McEvoy declined to state.

MINISTER A SUICIDE
Says Church Twists Facts to Square
 With Traditions.

New York, August 26.-Rey Albert H. Trick of Brooklyn committed sui oide by shooting himself III tae head in a room in the Mills hotel at Sew eIth avenue and Thirty-seFenth street this city yesterday. The req son given for the suicide was that, owing t. failing eyesight, Mr Trick Was unable to support his two young soas witt. whom he lived in Br: f- lsn. He aG held no regular pas torate for several years, but had worked at selling insurance.
 Mr Trick was once pastor of q Presbyterian church in Chicago an. llter had a ,h:uee at Saratoga, N. Y.
 A remarkable letter lief. Js .hs s&icidc Ill part .IG follows:
 'I have never been able to conquer an inborn contempt for the place money has in this world. though knowing so we'll how absolutely a fair amount of it, at least, is neees- sary to all of LIS. could never adapt myself in view of my early ideas to the method by which money is made. They are so transparently selfish and more or less interruptions whether used by the church or the sO-called World" I could never worship Americas trinity-success pleasure and gold. am too old and settled in my character to change, though my eyes have long been spent on my de- lusions. I took deeply to heart the teachings of Jesus and tried hard and long to square my soul by them. founc at last what a pitiable mis- take l had made and how lonely was even in the church. The aver age man cares little about what Jesus taught and it makes one heartsick to hear its ecclesiastics prate about 1t.
 "Ye Gods, what does the church care for these things-for truth, etc. It twists all the facts, philosophy and expressions of history to make them square with their petty traditions and systems of a day"

MERIDEN POL C; WON
The Silver City Policemen DidD'l Give Waterbury Men a Run.

Meriden, August 26.-The Meri- den police baseball team defeated the Waterbury bluecoats at Hanover park yesterday shutting them out 6 to 0. A large audience saw the game among whom were many visitors from the Brass City. Danny Joyce was on the slab for Meriden and the visitors were unable to do anything with his slants. They got but three hits off him and those were Of the most scratchy order. He was given most excellent support, only three errors being made by the locals. Wallace pitched for Waterbury and was touched up for nine safe hits.
 It was no hit game, as far as Wa terbury sleuths were concerned, up to the eighth inning, after which period they only connected with the live wire shoots for three scratchy hits and Officer Dan struck out fifteen of the visiting Sherlocks at that. Great pitching, excellent fielding and beau tiful support won the game for Mer- iden.
 There was but two slueths from over the hills that reached third sta tion and but three who connected with the second post.
 The features noticeable in the game were a great catch by Officer Sweet. in left garden, the backstop work of Dodd, he having six putouts and two assists cleverly played, and Joyce's fielding, with six assists, double steals and fifteen strikeouts to his slate.
 After the game Manager Burke es- corted the visiting players to the police station and rendered them a great spread of refreshments, Among the guests, besides the players of both teams, were Commissioner Har- ry Miner and several ladies from Waterbury. as well as Sergeant Leary of Bridgeport, Harry Zecher. manager of the Connecticut Statv hospital team. Alderman Lyons, Commissioner Lapointe and other prominent citizens of the city. Vo cai selections were rendered by James Sullivan of Waterbury ana also recitations and funny stories were given by Sergeant Leary of Bridgeport, Commissioner Miner Of Waterbury, Alderman Lyons, Super visor Harry Zecher and others.

Sarsaparilla.

The druggist was serving a couple of men with sarsaparilla.
 Did you ever stop to think where this delicious stuff comes fromT be asked.
 "Sassafras. isn't it?" they hazardec.
 "Sassafras nothing." said the drug gist. "Sarsaparilla is made of zarza roots. and zarza roots come from the Amazonas swamps of Brazil.
 Fearful swamps they are-smelly black mud. mosquitoes in millions. snakes and crabs. heat. poison. orchids. fever. And here the natives camp for weeks at time gathering zarza roots for the sarsaparilla trade. The vine runs along the ground, the roots are located, and half of them are taken. the remaining half being carefully covered with soil again. so that they will sprout for next year.
 Tt is because sarsaparilla. like quinine. grows in fever soil that 1t ,s good for fever"
