Spokane. Jan. 17.-"If DR.. B. F.
Roller, the Seattle physician, is really
planning on entering the fight game,
there is man right in Spokane that

ship Of the amateur clubs of the norta-

and is a fighter from the word go.
He will be too fast for Roller. and
will win short round bout with the
big fellow simply because he can out

"Of course, only a six round bout
would be allowed, but is II could be

Roller to get his start that way, be-

tuesday Will Determine
Election or Defeat of
Gov. Chamberlain.

Salem, Ore, Jan. 17.-Oregon's SEN
atorial situation is attaining a critical
phase. With the ballot TO be taken
Tuesday the republican opponents OF
Governor George E. Chamberlain, a
democrat, are striving to induce
enough pledged members to break
their obligation to prevent Chamber
lain's election. Ormsby McHarg, late
OF Chicago and South Dakota, is In
Portland comforting with the repub-
lican leaders. The report that ne is
authorized to assist In the senatorial
fight by the administration is repudl-
ated according TO adyices from Wash
ington. A telegram was received from
Secretary Loeb today stating that the
administration has not changed its at
titude toward Chamberlain.
A counter fight is about to be de-
clared by republicans supporting
Chamberlain. They have announced
such members as violate their pledge
to Chamberlain, and also on the lead
erS in the legislature who are organ
izing the fight against the democrat.
Unless the senator Is elected Tuesday
the petitions for the recall Will he
circulated Wednesday. The recall
plan Is being attended by w s, U'Ren,
father of the many advanced ideas
which Oregon mas adopted.
As yet the opponents of Chamberlain
have been unable To agree on repub-
llcan as a candidate. A conference
Will be held at Salem on Monday night
for the purpose of selecting candi-
date If possible.

Before the Olympic games at Lon

races in Italy and had started in the
Marathon race at Athens in 1906. He
trained diligently for the London race
ard 1t is now ancient history how he
went to pieces when victory was al
most his, and how the English Off
Gals carried him over the finish line
only to have him disqualified and the
event awarded to Johnny Hayes.
Dorando's condition was such after
the race that it was reported that he
was dead This proved to be false

hero of the London race began to pre-

previous races, and gave out entirely
before the twentieth mile had been
reached.
II would not only be foolish, but
positively dangerous, to allow Doran-

Percy Smallwood at st Louis. a week

lapsed against Longboat twice needs

ex-champion ever worked any harder
for ring battle than he is doing now,

stunt he is to give in vaudeville.
The strangest thing about 1t all IS
that JEFF began this strenuous training
Just as soon as possible after Little
Artha Johnson gave a sound thrash
ing to "T. Burns in Australia. and
incidentally annexed the heavyweight
title which JEFF laid aside in favor oI
the Canadian. The long and short OF
the whole thing is that JEFF intends to
fight Johnson If it is possible for him
10 get into fighting trim, and this is
The reason he is doing such stunts in
the gym. 1t is simply case of there
being fire somewhere around where
there is a lot Of smoke to be seen.
Despite all his assurances to the con-
trary, JEFF really wants another battle.

course the big champion does not, i'll

this early preliminary wor kis for the

dition he can put himself in for a
ring battle There is more than one
reason why jeff should fight Johnson
reason from the JEFF standpoint. His
end from the purse would be such that
jeff could not we'll overlook if at this
time. and then, the ex-champion would
take a peculiar pride in whipping
Johnson and regaining the title.
jeff wants the title to remain with
tho white race, and If his training JUS
tifles the belief that he can get in
shape. then Jeff and Jack Will have

jeff retired young He is not too
old to fight. Before his last battle
with Monroe) he said that when he
was too old to train he would be too
old to fight, and now he has proved
that he is young enough to train. The
fact that he is sparring daily with
such a big fellow as AL kaufmsn
would indicate that he has a more ui
innate motive than theatrical engage

There have been several fighters of
championship caliber - Fftzsimmons.

The gang of laborers, 25 in number,
were engaged in piling rocks and
other ballast on the trestle when the
foreman discovered that the section
on which they were working was
about to be swept away.
The foreman quickly mounted 4

after him on foot, he started as fast
as he could for Webster to summon
help. He reached Webster safely and
telephoned to headquarters In this city
for assistance. But in the meantime
the trestle went out in two places,
laborers-m -marooning them helpless and
in a position that was becoming more
perilous as the water rushed In tor
rents and carried away section after
section of the trestle.
From accounts given by the 23 lab
orers who were subsequently rescued
from the trestle by a force of men
who went out in boats from Washing
ton, 1T was learned that two of their
number were missing. They became
confused and not knowing what they
were about jumped into the water
when they saw the timbers torn from
the treStle. II is known that two
were drowned and the survivors who
