EYES ON 1912.
Southern Democrats Favor Simmons to
Head Committee.

h Washington ID. CO. Times, OF
AariI "a, says:
',-.l,tor Furnitold NJ. Simmons, OF
y #ro1ina, is the latest person to
b ght out for the Craftsmanship OF
the Democratic National Committee.
Senator Simmons has a record as a
g-at campaign manager in the South,
j. iowa as an astute politician with
a <:t: grasp of national affairs, and as
;, rat story teller. Finally, he is be-
in .nl<heI forward by Southern peo-
~ a.. while admitting that 1908 is
not the year tor them, think 1912 is
likely to he the year for the South to
presenta candidate for the Presidency,
and who would like meanwhile to get
the machinery of the party into their
hands.
The Democrats, in fact, havetwo con-
tests on their hands at this time. One
concerns the nomination for President.
and is Bryan and anti Bryan. The
other relates 10 the control of the,Na-
tiolal Committee, and in it is repre-
scented especially the desire of a great
southern influence to conserve the
chances of Senator Charles a. Culber-
son, of Texas, as a Presidential posi-
bility-
senator Culberson's friends are
backing tie demand for Simmons for
chairman OF the National Committee.
In doing it they have their eyes on
1912, with a double purpose in view.
They want to rest the control of the
Dartv from the Northern Democrats,
and they also wish to make sure that
Richard Franklin Pettigrew, Of South
Dakota, shall not be The national chair
man this year. They believe,it is said,
that if P~e.tigFew becomes national
chairman the prepOnuerance OF the
Northern Democracy, which furnishes
few electoral votes, will be preserved
indefinitely. They are willing L con-
cede the Presidential nomination fo1
this year TO the North; but they are
determined 10 have a real light before
a win the party organization to be
turned over in toto to the same sec.
ton.
Senator Simmons is brought for
ward for the place because Off firm be
lief that as chairman he would MAKE

SULLIVAN TO
MEET THOMAS
EVERYTHING READY FOR SHOW
AT CABIN TONIGHT
Billy Woods Fight with Collins viii
Be Watched with Interest.
Jap Pugs to Minale
Again

Is Billy Woods in anything near like
The form which made him Tom Nc
Carey's favorite fighter three or four
years ago? This question will be an
swered tonight when Woods and Arthur
Collins mingle in the main preliminary
to the Sullivan-Thomas mill. If Woods
gets away with his man in short order
McCarey will match him right back
with Sam Langford for the open date
precedlr p the Nelson Unholz go.
While the Woods-Collins bout will at
tract let's of spectators to the Cabin
tonight. 1t is not slated as the main
event on the card. Jack Twin Sullivan
and Jo4 Thomas will furnish the big
attraction, and as both are in the best
of condition a nice mill should result
Thomas will fight different battle
than any he yet has shown. Hitherto
Joe has been forced to make a certain
weight for his opponent, and If his
statement is to be taken as the dope
his weight was usually from three to
five pounds too low. Catch weights
leaves him all his natural strength
and Thomas has been conditioning HIM
self along lines where he will be fast
and strong.
Sullivan has trained in his usual
oteady fashion, leaving nothing undone
to insure a victory. Like Thomas, he
has not beel forced to make any par
ticular poundage, and will go into the
ring almost a heavyweight. Jack will
bet a little chunk on himself today,
and any time the matched wonder
makes ii a money proposition it's
cinch he's leveling.
Thomas and Sullivan will fight ten
rounds, and Charlie Eyton is slated
to act as the third man in the ring.
If the dope is right Sully may cop the
change, but under the different condi-
lions of weight Thomas may surprise
the fans and be another Tommy Burns.
Only two preliminaries to the big
show ave programmed, but if they go
through according to expectations,
plenty Of fighting for one night will
be seen. The Japs were such a hit
on their one appearance here that Nc
Carey decided on another pair of the
brown boys, and Kid Togo, winner
last time, will meet young Takahira
in a six-round fest. If the latter fights
according to his name he will make
Oyama go some, but the Kid is not
Russian, and this may make some
difference.
Woods and Collins will get together
over the ten-round route, and as Billy
has been showing all kinds of speed
and strength in lis workouts at the
Cabin, he is expected to dispose of
Arthur before the limit has been
reached. But Collins is a big boogie
and may carry the fight to Woods
hard enough to make Billy out loser.

MAKES GRANDSTAND PLAY
IN AN ATTEMPTED SUICIDE
Man Is Believed to Have Run Big
Bluff When He Threw Himself
in Front of Central
Avenue Car

Steve Pollock, who says he has used
cocaine for twenty years, last night
made what the police believe was a
grandstand attempt at suicide by
throwing himself across the car track
at Seventh and Central avenues.
Either Steven didn't know exactly
where the cars stop, or else he clum-
silly provided for his rescue in time to
prevent any physical injury. 1t is be-
lieved he took an overdose of cocaine,
or some other mental stimulus of high
ly imaginative tendencies, and con-
cluded to set the world on fire with
a drama tic suicide stunt calculated
to win for himself and antecedents an
undying notoriety and sympathy.
Anyway, Steven got on the wrong
side of the street, and after carefully
wiping off the rails, proceeded de-
liberately to lay down on the track,
while the car was sufficiently far
enough away fer the motorman to see
him in time.
To make assurance doubly sure, how
ever he didn't lay down on the near
side, but crossed to the opposite cor
rer, where, with the folded arms and
apathetic mien of a real, old fashioned
martyr, he did the reclining act and
posed in confidence for the awful on
rush of the great iron monster, whose
merciless wheels 6Nere all too soon TO
-er, stop within forty or fifty feet
Of him. r,
Not too late the motorman of the
swiftly approach ching car discerned in
the Vague distance before him the
form of some intangible object lying
yes, lying, across the track. Great
heavensi-it was man. At least II
appeared to be.
In an instant he had piled the air,
and thu brakes were on. The car
stopped, less than a half block from
the seemingly inanimate object that
Lad so barely escaped death on the
cruel rails.
There was moment of confusion,
and dull, horrible uncertainty. The
motorman left his car and walked to-
ward the object on the track.
At tho same moment II man named
w. p. Nephew, of 1855 South Johnston
street and officer Hartnagle saw the
PROSTATE figure, and strolled to the
rescue. Bending over him, they lifted
The unfortuns te creature in their
strong and manly arms. They saw
that he was still living, though the
var had not touched him.
At last accounts Steven was enjoy
ing a brief TIP in the police patrol
bound for the city Jail to mediate on
the errors OF his futile efforts.

WlTHERSPOON HOLDS
AUDIENCE CENTRALIZED
Recital Given Last Night Attended by
Interested Crowd of Music Lovers,
Who Gathered to Hear Great
Basso

The splendid work done by Herbert
Witherspoon in Elijah Saturday
night and the unanimous acknowledge
ments to his art by the critics of the
Los Angeles papers assured Mr.. With
erspoon a good house to hear his re-
cital last night.
The versatility of the artist made it
possible for him to hold the interest of
his audience through a program of
twenty-three numbers demanding sew
eral numbers repeated. He graciously
added by request Tours Mother O.
Mine" and at the end Annie Laurie"
The program was very comprehen-
sive, running from a rollicking irish
folk song to the dignitied and dramatic
recitative and aria from Handlers
Judas Maccabeaus,"
The singing quality in Mr.. Wither-
spoons voice is most delightful We
had an opportunity to hear some beau
tifully produced low tones that werc
musical bass. The often abused pora-
mento was used with very good judg-
ment. The "Pauper's Drive" in his
group of modern songs was a most
vivid picture, drawn in bold, rugged
style, portraying pauper's only ride
in carriage "a hearse) on his way to
the cemetery.
The beautifully dainty French song,
Isl tn lie veaux," received a charming
rendition and the audience demanded a
repetition.
Mr.. Witherspoon seemed equally at
home In German, French, Italian and
English songs, and at all times was the
Intelligent and thoughtful artist.
Mrs. Witherspoon acted as the accom-
PIANIST and while very satisfactory
could hardly be called sympathetic.
A cordial welcome awaits Mr.. and
Mrs. Witherspoon at any time the gods
permit them to visit us.
