That percentage OF rs under Can
tillOn brings up another funny angle in
baseball. When Patsy Donovan had
the team in 1904 he had working for
him one Of the poorest aggregatfOns
that ever wasted time In the major
leagues, and Patsy did not have more
than 80 cents at one time TO buy new
players. When the curtain was run<
down on him with a PERCENTAGE of .2g7.
the excuse was that Patsy was such a
quiet, easy going affable, refined per-
son that he could not control a bunch
Of professional baseball players That
went for Ions time, and sOmewba [
the same line Of talk was used about
Jake Stahl. who succeeded Patsy
Now, II there IS one charge against Joe
Cantiilon that has become fixed in the
public mind above all others. Il is that
ne is exactly the opposite OF Patsy in
the characteristics aforementioned He
has been accused Of being rough. die
tatortal, OverbearinE, harsh. profane,
etc, etc, until the fans believe il, but
CantillOn's failure was even worse than
Donovan's, for he had three years in
which 10 succeed and was literally
backed with money whenever he wished
10 put through a deal. Why not try a
deaf and dumb manager next?

LAST NIGHT OF 4
 POPULAR PROGRAM
But It Will be Followed by Another Believed to be Equally as Good.

Tonight closes the engagement of two of the best vaudeville acts placed on the Coliseum boards. The new bill which will open Tuesday night prom ises another treat something entirely different. the quality for which Reeves and Wood are receiving an inter terri torial reputation.
 The DeChantaI Twins came to Phoenix with trunk full of the best comments. from the coast circuit. that Reeves and Woods have had the pleas ure of reading. and their work while here has lived up to their advance comments. They both have voices that have a cOlOring and sweetness seldom heard in vaudeville. and their way and manner cannot help but take with their listeners. They never know what they are going to burlesque before they appear in their act and for this reason. their work is much stronger than the machine style which turns out the same stunts night after night
 Tannehill and Radcliffe. who pre- sented the western sketch of The Cowboy and the Tenderfoot.' an act that teemed with a real ranch atmos- phere and vibrated with the big heart ed unselfish characteristics of Mon tana roundup life made a hit as no other western sketch has ever taken in Phoenix. They are two clever peo- pie. past masters of character work. who are continually on the lookout for something altogether new, for charac- ters offering new comedy. for charac- ters that will present something worth while and can be grasped by their audience and appreciated. They are above the rehashing of old stagedom chestnuts and horse play that have been overworked since the epoch of the ark. They are legitimate artists who are help making vaudeville take the higher plane

JOE CHAYNSKRS REPEAL
 OF QUEENsBERRY RULES
NEEDED REFORM PROPOSED BY
 BOXER.
Some of the Points of New Prize Ring
 Code.

New York. July 26.-(Special Core spondence of The Republican, Joe Choynski. the veteran boxer, has inau- gurated a reform movement with view to revising the existing code gov erning matches in the squared circle The old timer has formulated a new set of rules which he believes to be su perior to the Queensbury edicts. His revision numbers almost twice as many clauses as the old time code. having twenty-two sections instead of twelve Moreover he has expanded many of the old clauses in a manner that should meet with favor from stu dents of the art fistic ChOynsSi would do away with bandages. declaring that "cripples have no place in the ring" He also takes exception to referees in structions to the boxers. To quote Choynsk:
 The referees instructions to the contestants to hit with one arm free and not to hit when I tell you," are rather incongr1ous. How can man hit with one arm free and not hold. or if his opponent holds. then the Op- ponent is rperpetrating a foul, and what right has the referee to order break after admonishing the contest ants to hit with one arm freeS
 In rule 19 of Choynskis code he pro vides for dealing with unfairness on the part of seconds and incidentally protect the boxer from such an incl dent The clause follows:
 If a second throws up the sponge when it is apparent to the referee that the principal can continue and have winning chance the contest shall not be stopped. but the second so offend ing shall be elected from the building and not allowed to act as second again at any future time before any club"
 Rule states that Should the con test be stopped by any unavoidable in reference the referee to name time and place as soon as possible for fin ishing the contest"
 Choynski has changed this to read:
 Should the contest be stopped by police interference the referee has full power to render a decision"
 In the old Queensbury code rule II reads: No shoes or boots with springs allowed"
 The changed clause has it: "Only boxing shoes. regulation style. with either chamois. elk skin or rubber shoes allowed
 Choynsh would deal summarily with the pugilist committing a delib- crate foul. lissst6
 If man commits a deliberate foul he shall be immediately disqualified and shall receive no part of the purse
 Commenting on fouling and ring af fairs in general. Choynski says
 "A foul consists in hitting with the head. wrestling. hitting with the open hand or heeling, that is. with the bot tom of the palma trick often used when a man injures his knuckles; back heeling-placing the foot back of an opponents heel and showing him backward.
 Contestants should be examined by a physician before going into train ing. and certainly before etnering the ring.
 T may be wrong. but a score board showing the spectators the man hay ing the advantage of each round (shades not to counD. the summing up of which would declare the win ner. would do away with a lot of dis satisfaction which is now the bane of many contests"

Diabetes is rated the world over as incurable. but recoveries are being reported daily through Fulton's Dia- bette Compound. You may ask how it is possible for person to recover under the Fulton treatment when medical text books admit they have nothing for it.
 Let us say in reply. that when the late John J. Fulton discovered he had Bright's Disease and that the text books had no specific for in flammation of the kidneys. which was the real difficulty. he set out in a new direction to evolve an emOllient that would reduce inflammation in the kidney tissues. He worked it out and inflammation of the kidneys all along the line from kidney trouble to Bright's Disease. even in the chron- ic forms, is now curable in about eighty seven per cent of all cases.
 Diabetics took it upon the theory that as Diabetes is an impairment of functions that are closely related to the urinary process, it ought to get results in that trouble. too
 It did. but much more slowly than in distinct kidney trouble. This led to a modification of the treatment for Diabetics. with the result that Diabetes is also curable in nearly nine tenths of all cases in people of middle age and upward CKidney dis ease commonly responds in all ages

 For Diabetes. ask for Fulton's Dia- bette Compound.

in all branches OF athletics, will
struggle for supremacy on the
field and cinder path, and on
May 81 Whitman will do battle
with the Pullman athletes, also
on the local field.
At present this is the extent
of the schedule as far as it is
definitely arranged, although ar
rangements are being made Off
the triangular and for other mi
nor meets. According to present
indications Washington State
will have the best track team in
its history. Coach Boiler, now
freed from the work of training
the wrestling team has taken hold
of the track men with a will and
a large squad has begun working
out on Rogers Field.
For the distance runs the State
College perhaps has the best
bunch of men in the history of
the school. Clarence J. COOL,
the man who represented this
institution in the Seattle Mara
thon, will be used in the half.
There are Johnson, Clarke and
WEIGH to enter the distance runs
so that this department will be
we'll taken care of. Last year
COOL was unable to get into con-
dition on account of sickness,
but he set the pace for his team
mates in the distance runs, en-
aiding Johnson and Clarke to
take a number of these. This |
year, however, he is in perfect |
condition and looked for to
smash one or two northwest re-
cords.
Harlan Coe, a speedy ladIwho
stepped off the 100 and 220 in
good time two years ago for the
State College, but who has since
been out of school, is back and is
fast rounding into condition. |
Ralph Lowry is also back in
spikes this year and will make
some of them travel in the I
sprints. Jud Thompson, the old /
Seattle high school athlete, will
be for the jumps and is looked /.
to for good work in this line.
For the pole vault, W.S.C. is
well heeled this year in having
Jay, the old Pendleton star ath-
lete, and Johnnie Dalquist of
Everett, both of whom are
Freshmen. In the indoor meet |
these men tied at 10 feet eight |
inches and will undoubtedly |
better this before long. SIAM
baugh, Laird Mead, and Golf are
working with Joe Hahn, the
veteran weight man, while Cap
tian Ivan Putan is in the lead in
the hurdles, jumps and quarter
with such men as Galbraith, An
derson, Jay and Dalquist fol-
lowing closely.
The state college athletes con-
slider themselves fortunate in
having such man as Boiler to
handle the track athletes. Bob
ler's strongest point, perhaps, is
his knowledge of how to train
men, which is a feature in which
the college has been lacking past
years, so that the men may be
