New Pope.Hartford Here

The new model "T" Pope-Hartford
1910 car is here. Scarcely necessary to
say this, for it requires but glance
at the handsome automobile that is
being driven on the Streets of Los An
geles by Captain Jargstorff to know
that the demonstrator is here.
Finished in Pope blue, with cream
gearings and wheels, noiseless as a sew
ing machine, the big car is one of espe-
cial beauty, and, of course, In every
particular up to the very high standard
of the Pope Hartford manufacture
Many who have been awaiting the ar
rival of the new car will now have the
opportunity OF seeing what skill and
perfection of manufacture can produce.

BARRY JOHNSON DATE
SET AHEAD ONE DAY
Bout Will Be Staged on Monday, Sep.
tember 20, Instead of Follow
Ing Night-Brock and PIcato
In Good Condition

The date for the Johnson Barry ten
round argument at Maud Junction,
billed as the worlds heavyweight
championship contest has been set
ahead one day and will be held on
Monday evening, September 20, instead
of the following night. This has been
done in order not to conflict with
circus date, as the head of the family
has his time full and his pockets
empty when the circus comes to town.
Though the action taken yesterday
by the Pacific Athletic club in thus
changing the date is an unusual one
and the bout will be staged on an off
night, there will be no decrease in at
tendance. The appearance of the
negro heavyweight will be enough to
insure a big house. and it is expected
that the old fight shed will be jammed
to the rafters when the big fellows get
together, Meanwhile Barry is neglect
ing no details of his conditioning, for
he realizes that victory over the big
black would mean the handling Of
more than 100000 in cool cash as his
own property, besides a reputation
which he never could pawn or give
away.
There were lively times at Maud
Junction pavilion yesterday when
many of the fighters who are to appear
at the snow next TUESDAY evening
were training for the various bouts
Among the pugs who exercised them
selves before the fans were Phil Brock,
Dick Given, Curley O'Connell, Gene
Sullivan, Dan Sullivan, Joe Livermore,
Kid Cleveland, Young Miller and Har-
old Orwig. A score of rubbers, time
keepers and trainers looked after the
boys and big crowd was on hand to
see the workouts.
Phil Brock seemed livelier than ever
and went through ten rounds of box
ing without turning a hair. He Is In
magnificent shape and looks to be able
to give Picato the fight of his career.
Phil appears to be confident of the
outcome and declared yesterday that
he would wade in and bring the bout
to q close as quickly as possible. PM

five with Curley O'Connell. O'Connell

Are Women
Supported by Their Husbands.

At recent public debate in New York
city, two we'll known women discussed
the question Are women supported by
their husbandsE' Is the husband, in 9TH
er words, the original easy mark who
generously provides meal tickets and
sealskin coats to a permanent guest he
calls his wife, or is he only the silent
partner in a mutually advantageous
business concern called family? By
common consent no attention was paid
to those establishments to which one or
both parties contribute safe-deposit
vaults full of gilt-edged securities. nor to
those international arrangements in
which hubby provides the nobility and
WHEY pays the rent. The argument had
only to do with the common or garden
variety of home to which the husband
brings the envelope on Saturday night
and where ne finds supper ready. The
married lady who took the affirmative
declared that the wife, economically con-
sidered, is a poor investment and re
ceives more than the market rate for
household work. The negative, a spin
steT, put up a strong plea that the lady
of the house. whether she alone performs
the simple household tasks or attempts
the far more difficult feat of persuading
some one else to do them, contributes
her equal share to the maintenance of
the family.
This debate consisted of airing before
large and intelligent audience q ques-
ton that has been confined heretofore
to the sacred privacy of the home. A
million hard-working husbands have
said:
while | slave from morning to night
you do nothing but spend money"
To which a million wives have retort-
ed courteously but firmly:
ITS all very well for you to Sit all
day in your comfortable office. I'd like
to see you try to run this house for just
one day"
And in spite of these millon-and-one
discussions, the question is still unset

THE FLORIDA STINGAREE.
A Terror Of Fishermen and Bathers That
Hides IN the Sand

The stingaree is the terror of the south
Florida fishermen who work with their
nets in the shadows of bayous and in
let's, while the cry of "Stingareei" will
cause more fear among bathers than a
RATHER could on dry land.
The stingaree is ii square shaped mem
her of the ray family, with head not
much 10 look at on one corner. and on
the diagonal corner its weapon, the wick
,,slest kind Of tail. The other two corn
ers flap il along with a wayy motion
only to be compared to the opening
waves Of Loie Fuller's old butterfly dance
while she was warming up.
The beast scoops out a hole just deep
enough so that when it is in it its back
is nearly level with the sandy bottom
As the young are almost sand colored on
top they are not easily distinguished
Step on n stringaree and up over its
back comes that tail striking like a sti-
lett0. 4 stab thus inflicted in the foot
will continue to burn mp along the leg
to the hip. Owing TO the depth and pc
culiar shape of the wound il is difficult
to cleanse and heal. Fishermen have
been laid up for months with such a
wound.

BEARS ON THE FREE LIST.
Pennsylvania to Withdraw the Protec
tion 1t Extended to Bruin.

The Pennsylvania Legislature will put
bear on the free list again. For two
years bears have been protected so that
they have been legal game in this state
only from October to March. To kill
or trap a bear except during that sea-
son made the killer or trapper liable
to a fine of 500 or a term or impris-
onment.
The object of making a closed sea-
son on bears during the spring and sum
mer months was to give the mother
bear a chance to care for and guard
her offspring until the youngsters could
look out for themselves. 1t was demon
strated to the Pennsylvania law makers
Of 1907 that the day when wild bears
were a menace to the agricultural wei
fare of the state had passed years ago.
Bear cubs are born while the mother
bear is alternating and usually in Feb
ruary, but sometimes not until March.
They are born blind. There are two
cubs at a birth Oftener than one. but
three and even four are not uncom-
mOn
The mother bear ventures out with
her new family when the cubs are from
three weeks to a month old, and a
mother bear killed then means the death
of her young Not until it is time for
her to think Of seeking quarters again
for her long winter nap does the mother
bear leave her cubs to look out entirely
for themselves.
Then they are lusty brutes, fit for con
sideration by the hunter or trapper,
either for meat or fur, and their mother
is again full f1eshed, with a new fur
coat sleek and heavy, and legitimate
mark for the sportsman who may engage
in a skirmish of wits with her on the
trail.
On the showing that bears were not
the aggressive and destructive marauderS
that backwoods tradition made them out
to be and the accompanying showing
that a protective law would prevent the
wantOn destruction of female bears while
they were guarding and caring for
their young a destruction which aside
from its inhumanity was against the in
terests of the hunters themselves, the
Legislature provided in the game law
enacted two years ago for a close sea
son on bears. From every district in
this state where bears still have their
habitat the report is that no hunter
remembers when the woods were 50
stocked with bear as in the open sea
son of 19OS-09 and when better or
more profitable sport followed bear hunt
ing and trapping. The bears were not
only numerous but the proportion of
young bears was unprecedentedly large.
But backwoodS sentiment could not
reconcile itself to a condition that made
it possible for a person to see a bear
in the woods at any time and under
any circumstances and not be at liberty
to kill it. SO the influence of their con
stituency having been brought to use on
its representatives in the Legislature,
the Pennsylvania bushwhacker will
have all seasons for his own with bruin
once more, for the new game law viii
restore bears to the free list.

A NEGRO WOMAN SCULPTOR.
From the Tent of an Indian Tribe to a
Studio in Rome.


Miss Edmonia Lewis, the colored
sculptor, has lived for so many years
abroad, says the Rosary magazine, that
many of her country people have well
nigh forgotten her existence.
Miss Lewis is of mixed African and
Indian blood, her father having been a
negro and her mother an Indian of the
Chippewa tribe in New York, in which
state she was born, near Albany, some
time about the year 1910.
Her parents died while she was still a
child, and she lived and roamed with
her mothers people until she was 10.
when by the assistance of her brother
she went to Oberlin, o., to college.
As she was a fervent Catholic she
found the atmosphere of Oberlin some
what uncongenial, but she studied there
for two or three years. and there her
Indian name of Wildfre was changed to
that of Edmonia Lewis. From child
hood she had always had wonderful
power with her hands in shaping any
thing she touched and while studying
she began her career as a sculptor.
She came into notice in 1865 through
the exhibition Of her first work, bust
of Robert Gould Shaw of Boston. That
same year she began work ut Rome,
where she has ever since resided.
Her works, with but few exceptions,
are now the property of members of the
British nobility. Her works include 1.-THE
Freedwoman," "The Death of Cleo
patra" and portrait busts Of Lincoln.

The Harmful Effects
Of Drinking with Meals

To drink or not to drink with meals
is a question which has been discussed
pro and con for many years. Rovighi
has submitted the question to the test
of careful laboratory experiments, and
has shown conclusively that the free
use of liquids with meals increases to
a very great extent the putrefaction of
the albumins in the intestine. and con-
seQuently tends to produce autointoXica-
ton, since putrefaction is accompanied
by the development of various poisons
which are absorbed from the intestine
and circulated in the blood to the detri-
ment of the liver, kidneys and every 9TH
er vital organ. Rovighi showed that
after a meal taken with large amount
of LIQUID the urine contained four times
as much patrefaction products as be-
fore, whereas when the meal was eaten
dry the amount of poisons was less than
half as much. Schumann, another phys
iologist, has repeated these experiments
and with similar resi- It's. Combe, one of
the foremost of European specialists in
gastric disorders, confirms these results
and requires his patients to eat their
food dry, taking considerable liquid two
or three hours after breakfast and the
midday meal, and just before retiring

margin between the reward of industry

of the wage-earners problem. Statistics
show that whereas wages are increasing
