NO DECISION GIVEN
DriscolI, the Britisher, Gives
Abe AtteI a Hard Scrap
Last Night.
CONTEST WAS A FAST ONE

New York, Feb. 20.--Jem Driscoll,
the great little English fighter, bested
Abe Attel, the featherweight champ
ion, after ten rounds of the hardest
kind of fighting before the National
Athletic club last night. No decision
was given. but it was the opinion of
the majority of the crowd that Dris-
coll was entitled to the honors.
The battle brought together two of
the cleverest boxers that ever met.
Attel brilliantly clever as he is. found
himself against an opponent who was
fully his equal if not his superior. And
incidentally he discovered that the
little Englishman could hit. Time and
again during the fight Driscoll rocked
Abe's head with solid punches, while
at no time was the Britisher in danger
of a knockout.
There was much clever stalling and
blocking. and one of the largest
crowds that has seen battle in New
York since the game has come back"
cheered the men wildly.
Betting Is Even.
The betting went to even just be.
fore the fighters entered the ring. At
tells seconds were Charlie Sieger, Al
Lippe, Al McMurray, and Jimmy De-
Forest, while Jimmy Johnson, Charlie
Harvey, and Boyo Driscoll looked aft,
err the Englishman. Attel was the
first to enter the ring and was greeted
cordially. He wore light bandages on
his hands. Attel was followed shortly
after by Driscoll, whose hands also
were bandaged.
Referee Charley White called the
men to the center of the ring and gave
them their instructions. The gong
then rang for the battle.

A Frank Philosonher

Charles Eliot Norton in his Harvard
lectures on the history OF art used
often to describe a meeting between
Thomas Carlyle and the philosopher
Mallock.
''Maliock was a wise man." he would
say. but his views differed from Car
lyle's. and hence. though they were
true views. Carlyle deemed them false
and pernicious. We should all culti-
vate a broad outlook, SO as to escape
from the narrow intolerance Of Car
lyle When Mallock called on Carlyle
he talked in his fluent way for two
straight hours. Then be rose to 90.
At the door Carlyle, who had smoked
the whole time in grim silence. took
his pipe from his mouth and said
mildly:

received ye kindly because / knew yer

National League Chief Says
He Will Be Glad to Go
On Long Vacation.
HAS GONE TO CINCINNATI
BASEBALL MAGNATE REPEATS
HIS DETERMINATION NOT TO
RESIGN AND SAYS HE WILL
FIGHT FOR POSITION.

St Louis, Mo, Feb. 20.-HarrY c.
Pulliam, the storm center OF base ball
just now, paid st. Louis 4 visit yes
terday and Went to Cincinnati last
night, where he said he had business
to attend to.
Pulliam's departure from Chicago
was so hurried owing TO attempts TO
stop him by the National league mag
mates, that he arrived here minus his
overcoat and baggage. telephone
message from William Locke secre-
tary of the Pittsburg club. sent John
ny Ryan of the Planters hotel TO the
Union station to meet Pulliam.
The latter went Immediately to the
hotel. After two hours sleep Pulliam
paid calls around the city. He again
came near losing his train on his
departure as he remained in the Mid
way at the Union station talking I'M
til he had to run half the length OF
the platform to catch it.
PuIIiam Far From "crazy."
Pulliam's arrival here was heralded
by sensational stories. but he failed
to live up to them. He undoubtedly
is in highly nervous. unstrung con-
dition, badly in need of a rest, but far
from being unbalanced. as some re-
ports had it.
When he left he talked in a man
ner to indicate he knew exactly what
he was about. He did not come here
to get married. He said he did not
care to discuss this matter, as he con-
sidered it purely personal one. So
far as his layoff by the National lea
que is concerned, this is not bothering
him, and he is rather pleased than
otherwise.
in Cincinnati and then will be ready,
he said, for trip to California to
rest until he feels able to return. He
has no intention of resigning and will
give those who are after his position
a fight for it.
Objects to "Petty Fights"
Pulliam's complaints, as he reiter-
ated them here tonight, are that there
are too many petty fights among the
National league clubs into which he Is
dragged; that as result he is made
the object of personal attacks when
ever anything occurs that does not
please the owners. He has grown
tired of this and made his Chicago
speech because of it.
Unless he succeeds in getting a
business opening in California, which
is not improbable. he will not resign
as president of the National league
and will put it up to the magnates
to vote him out If they see fit.
Should Pulliam find business OPP
ening in California to his liking, the
National league will be looking for
another president unless he changes
his mind. In case he goes back to
the presidency, he says he wants to
be cut out from the minor chickering's
of the league clubs with each other
and players.

His son in the city sent him a coat

The Fight Over the Revision of
The Tariff Has Brought Him
Like q Buzzard to a Carton
Feast.
LUMBER NE NHAVE BIG
NUMBER OF "WORKERS"
They Have Been Scared by
Belief That Duty on Lumber
Will Be Entirely Removed
To Make Hard Fight.
BY Sheldon s. Cline.

Washington, Feb. 2O.-The lobbyist
is again in Washington in all his
glory. Optimistic reformers had rest
ed in the belief that public sentiment
had driven him forever from the cor
ridors of the Capitol. but the framing
of tariff bill has brought him and his
feast of carrion. The lobby will be on
the job day and night until President
Taft has signed the tariff bill.
In some instances single lobbyists or
organizations Of lobbyists are working
in the interest of a number of protect
ed industries. and in other instances
single industries are maintaining lob
bes of their own. This is notably
true in the case of the lumber indus
try. The present lumber lobby. it is
declared, is one Of the largest and
most perfectly organized which ever
sought to influence Congress in its
deliberations.
Lumber Men Scared.
Lumber men got big scare when
it was announced as the purpose OF
the republican majority in congress to
entirely remove the duty on lumber
of 50 per thousand board feet. Or
ganization of the lobby followed close
upon this announcement, and it is
composed of men of unusual ability
and character. AS result of it's
work there is an understanding
around the capitol that the lumber
schedule will not be removed. but that
probably it will be cut in half. Lum-
Der men are opposed to any reduction
in the tariff and the lumber lobby will
fight it to the end.
Are Always Lobbyists.
The term lobbyist" generally is re-
garded as one. of reproach, but all
lobbyists are not necessarily reprehen-
sible. AS matter of fact, few meas
ures go through congress without
more or less lobbying in their behalf.
When d delegation of prominent citi-
zens from Four-Corners comes to
Washington to urge improvements in
the channel of Snake river, they are
for the time being turned lobbyists.
The president sends members of his
cabinet to the capitol to lobby for
measures in which he is especially in
terested. One of the largest and most
persistent Hobbies Washington has
known in years is the one working for
temperance legislation for the District
Of Columbia and for the bill to pre-
vent express companies and other car
riers from taking liquor into prohibit
ton territory.

The extraordinary skill with which
Sir Edwin Landseer painted animals
was due not merely to his mastery Of
the brush. but also to his intimate
knowledge Of the animal world. One
Of his many talents was the power Of
initiating to perfection the cry OF any
creature with which he was familiar.
One day when the artist happened to
be the guest Of Lord Rivers he was re-
quested to 60 and see very savage
dog that was tied up In the yard. As
Landseer approached the growing
beast he dropped quietly upon his
hands and knees and then, crawling
forward. snarled SO alarmingly that the
dog, overcome with terror. suddenl.
snapped his chain. jumped over tn
wall and was never seen afterward.

Discuss "Our Walter"

There was considerable discussion
about the position which Representa-
tive Ratliff, of Wayne, will take when
the laws come up for passage. Some
teachers hold that he will line up on
the side of the educators but most of
the pedagogues think that he will be
found-when he is found-on exactly
the opposite side of the fence.
In his address this morning. DR.
Alley said that the teacher has always
been honored as a foremost man ir
the community. But he had not al

Good Words for Alpena

A party of Green Forest ladies comprising Mesdames Sneed, Edgmon, Skinkle, Walker and Sweeney, went to Alpena Sunday and the day was so eventful that one of the party hands The Tri- bune an account of the trip which reads:
 The lesson taught by the re- surrected Christ, Glove thy neighbor as thyself," was vi.il. ly portrayed in the hospitality we received. Wm. Jenkins met us at the station and conducted us to his beautiful cottage home out little way from town, where Mrs. Jenkins received her "Home Mission sisters with open arms. When dinner was announced and we caught sight of the dining table, we know we had struck the land of peace and plenty.
 Notebook we attended the lec- ture delivered by one of America s notable prohibitionists, Mrs. Car rie A. Nation. Before we left home we had been told, if we went to hear her speak, we would blush behind the ears more than once. Had we used either tobac- co or intoxicants we surely would have blushed scarlet. When she finished talking there wasn't a doubt in our minds as to what she really meant.
 We went from the church to the comfortable home of Mr. and Mrs. w. M. Burkett, where a most delightful evening was spent. ID describe that supper is beyond us. We must mention, however, the fried chicken-full stock Plymouth Rocks matched on Christmas day and ready for the table Easter! MT. Burkett has COW which he says pays him better than the interest on a thousand dollars. They sell milk and butter to the amount of 8 cents a day, besides all they need for home use.
 The town has selected beauti- full location for a public and high school building. The railroad company has made some exten- sive land deals and they mis- trust it means car shops for their town. Alpena has swung in line with the progress of North Ark ansas. As one of the party stat- ed, "where on earth but in Ark . ansas would person come in contact with all these things that make life so pleasant?"

Shameful Conduct This.

The entertainment given by the Grand View band and Prof Ben Hennessey. the impersona- tor, at the public school hall or Saturday night was something a little bit out of the ordinary in that it offered some of our prom . ising CD youths, some of them wearing mems sizes in clothing, an opportunity to ''show out. .''
 Among the half dozen to be thus mentioned were some boys of whom we had learned to ex pect better things. The respect able element of the community feel greatly outraged by such conduct.
 As for the entertainment it was especially good so far as the music was concerned and Prof. Hennessey's imp ersonations, while a little antiquated in some instances, were very good. In an instance or two we considered them exceptionally good. He is q man ef excellent ability and had he not had to work against so much confusion we have no doubt he would have better pleased his auditors.
 The Grand View band is late organization, made up of young men and boys of that community and they are not ameteurs by any kind of means. The Tri- bune regrets exceedingly that they went away feeling as they did toward Green Forest.
