Death Of Mrs. Jake Baltensperger

Mrs. Jake Baltensperger, an old lady living a few miles north ot town, died last night at o'clock, with pneumonia. She had been sick for several days, and living alone, few knew of her condition, until she was be- yond hopes of recovery.
 Mrs. Baltensperger has been a resident of this community for 50 years, living in Prescott in the 10's, with her husband, Jake Baltensperger, who was a cobbler.

He remained a few days and left again, since which time he has been in California, where a married daughter resides.
 Mrs. Baltensperger has some property, including the farm on which she lived, which will go to an only child, above mentioned.

Nat Martin.

Elsewhere in today's paper ap- pears the announcement of Nat Martion for reelection to the of flee of County and Probate Clerk of Nevada County.
 Mir. Martin, as every one knows, during his term of office has made an ideal clerk; his man. ner of dealing with the patrons of the office has been most excel. lent, and future holders of the office will have to follow some what the methods and manners of Mir. Martin, if they would be- gin to give the same satisfaction that he has.
 He is always ready to give at tention to any and every one whose business brings them to his office, and besides being ac comodating himself, he keeps an excellent force of deputies, and no business is too rushing, or no task too irksome but what any citizens wants are attended to promptly.
 Gentlemanly, affable, polite and accommodating, besides knowing the affairs of the office from be- ginning to end, Mir. Martin is a most sensible and logical aspi- rant for an office to which he is peculiarly fitted.
 Don't forget Mr. Martin when you cast your vote for County Clerk on March 25th.

League Meeting in February.
Special to the News.

Special to the News.
 Little Rock, Jan. 27.-"W nile lam not actively engaged in mak- ing preparations for entertain ing the members of the Southern League in this city in February, 1 can say that the entertainment will be done right, for Little Rock never does anything by halves, said Judge William M. Kayanaugh, president of the Southern League. It will be re membered that the first time any particular attention was paid to the Southern League was in 1902, directly after Judge Kava- naugh had been elected presi- dent. When the members were here they were entertained roy ally at the Falstatf Cafe, now the Bond Catering Company. Since that time the moguls have been entertained in every city in the league.
 Judge kavanaugh states that the league has received quasi promises from many leaders in eastern baseball and that he ex- poets some big fans to be here. Official invitations will be sent to them at a later date. Much lmporant business will be trans. acted at this meeting, which, in all probability, will be held in the College Inn, of the Southern Trust Building, of which com. pany Judge Kavanaugh is presi dent.

OLYMPIC FUND IS

Required Amount Assured-Rec.

letic Arena.
ny MANHATTAN.

NEW YORK, June 13.-The an
nouncement is made that the fund
necessary to send the American track
and field team is growing in a salts
factory manner. and although much
money still is to be raised. there is
reason to believe that the required
amount Will be forthcoming.
Few figures in the arena OF amateur
athletics to-day command more at
tention than that Of James A. Rector.
dash this spring stamps him as IL
worlds champion. At Philadelphia last
saturday lie ran the 100 metres in
once he did 3-5 on a dead still day,
and once with half gale behind him.
Rector came home In 8 80. In all
these races the Virginia athlete was
clicked by competent, though not ex-
pert, timers.
Rector IS "set up much on the style
Of Arthur Duffey. the real 9 3-5 sprint
s e.. He stands "a, BIT under feet Z
He resembles Duffey in action, too,
With that same quick, snappy leg ac-
ton used by the Georgetown nier.
Rector +, e, gets away like a flash Of light
1t Is to he regretted that Jim pix
ington and Julian Curtis found 1t i'm
possible. 10 get together a creditablc
crew crew or American oarsmen to go to
In the Olympic regatta. Lack of CO.
operation and scarcity of funds made
IT impossible to get together crew
within the prescribed time which would
have a chance to make even a credi-
table showing.
Already the boat crews are begin
ming to arrive at Poughleeepsie to put
on the finishing touches for the great
inter- collegiate regatta, which is sched-
uled for June 9th. Next week tho
river will present a busy spectacle
with a hundred or more oarsmen all
working Ike beavers to get into con-
dltion for the great event of the year
in college aquatics.
Every indication points to this as
probably the most open regatta ever
held In Poughkeepsle. Cornell seems
to have had sort of cnch on tho
varsity eight in previous wears, but
this year 1t looks on the surface ut
least as though the Ithaca men were
