GERMANS OPTIMISTIC.
Berlin Officials Believe Balkan
Trouble Has Been Settled.

Berlin, Feb. 20-The German autho~i-
ties do not share the grave appreh ension
regarding the situation between Austria
Hungary and Servia, that have been re-
ported recently as existing in St Peters
burg and London. On the contrary, the
feeling in the German foreign office has
grown more confident in the past few
days that Seryia will submit to the inev-
table, realizing the impossibiiity of secur-
ing any territorial indemnification from
Austria-Hungary for the annexation OF
Bosnia and Herzegovina. Furthermore,
the foreign office totally discredits the
assertion that Austria-Hungary is about
to invade Servia.

The Mining and Engineering
Journal gives some sound editorial
advice to mining investors in its
current number. What it has to say
is well worth reading by every man
who has dollars to put into the in
dustry. Here it is:
We feel some hesitation about so
often decrying the inducements that
are held out to lead investors into
mining enterprises. We should not
do 50 did We not think 1t to the
advantage of the real mining indus
try to have a correct understanding
of the conditions. This is distinct
ly to the advantage of the engineer
ing profession and the class of OPP
orators who are engaged in serious
mining, who are the members of the
mining industry that We specially
represent. They and we are anxious
to see mining regarded in the same
way that manufacturing and rea,
estate enterprises are considered,
Collu uCtcu dld faIuCo. We "ahe "
see the elimination of the irresponsi-
bic and ignorant promoters, takers,
and visionarists. If the public does
not squander its money among them
there will be more for legitimate
purposes.
The offerings of mining invest
ments to the public may be classi-
fed under five heads as follows:
l.. Developed mines, whereof the
ore bodies actually disclosed,
promise definitely a return of the
principal and an adequate interest

.KETCHEL TAKES Up
ACTIVE TRAINING

New York Sept STANLEY Ketchel
took up headquarters at a little inn in
the Bronx today to begin active train
ing for his ten-round fight with Sam
Laustord. to be held before the Fair
mont Athletic club of this city on
September II. With the arrival of
ketchel and the announcement by the
club management that the public Of
ticials have been satisfied, it is con-
siderej practically certain that the
much talked of fight will take place.
ketchel says be weighs 1875 pounds
now and critics say that he is ap-
parently in the best Of physical cOndi-
ton. His appearance as well as his
work cOnclusively refutes the many
stories emanating from the west which
pictured him as dallying with the life
that diSsipates. He has been in the
mountains Of California and saws that
every minute that he has been prepar-
ing for his fight with Langford.
The training now is to put on the
finishing touches, such as arm and
foot work
Ketchei displays a right hand which
shows that there was no myth in the
story that he broke several bones in
the first round Of his fight with Papke
The bones have not knitted properly
and there IS a heavy ridge across the
back of the hand. But Ketchel saws
that now he is as strong as ever and
that he can whip Papke in any round
he might mention,

say that expect the western people to

were headluers on the bill at the Or

round of our boxing act I turned quickly
and sent a crashing night cross to his
jaw with every ounce of my -25 pounds
behind it. He smiliugly said. Have YOU
got a girl in the audienCe?' and kept
on boxing with no more concern that ii
L had hit his elbow
Whatever fat he had on his stomach
is rapidly being displaced by clearly-de-

active training there is not the slight
est doubt I'm my mind but that he will

he retired. I feel sure that when John

CAN THEY BETTER
THE OLD RECORD?
1901 "a Hour Race Well Re-
membered as Great Fight
Between Stars.

The old-time bike fans well remember
the great twenty-four-hOUr race run at
the track Labor day, 1901. Billy King
was the minner, his mark of 473 miles and
laps standing as the record. John
Lawson, the plugger Of the Lawson fam
lily, was second with 449 miles and laps
to his credit, and Charley Turville, then
the wisest motor man on the track, was
third with 1886 miles and laps.
Just how the present race will compare
with the one eight years ago will be in
made by the old double-mOtOrs, on
which two riders pedaled, adding 80 per
cent to the speed Of the machine. a
mile in 1:25 for tho motors was great
Billy King was paced by Johnny Chap
man, Dick Cranes and Hi King. Law
son rode behind Billy Vaughn his brother
Gussie, oscar julius and Badly Slower.
Turville was paced by his brother Glen
and Eddie Smith. The grind then was
just as hard on the pacemakers as the
pace followers, anC the thrOngs that
watched the race were on edge all day
long.
A glance at the following tabuIated rec
ord of the race is interesting. Turville,
who had more speed. than the other com
petitOrs, set a whirlwind pace at the start
ana led for the first seven hours. He
bad ridden himself out, however, and Bill
~ King jumped to the lead and held il
to the finish, although Lawson was plug
ging along within striking distance.
The record shows that the winner was
on the track every hour and riding strong,
save the eighteenth when he advanced
but one lap. 1t was a great ride under
the old conditions, and whether or not
the present day stars with the present
day motors can equal or better It is
doubtful Each Of the three, however,
believes that he can better the record
and the attempts viii be worth seeing
The summary Of the old race follows;
