RAIN STOPS THE
BOXING BOUTS
No Boxing Until Saturday Night
When There viii Be Six
Events.

J. Pluvius was peeved last night and
very badly peeved. He waited until
the doors at Aloha park were open
and then sent the crowd scurrying for
shelter and the box Office to get their
money back. Therefore there were no
boxing bouts last night.
Manager Fred Smith has decided to
not hold any more events until Satur
day night. Then he will come out with
a big program of six bouts. Last
night IS events viii be pulled off then
and in addition there vii be three
more.
The program will be something like
this:
All Sam, local Chinese scrapper, VS..
Bugler Sarconi of Camp Very, rounds
at 1873 pounds.
Jack Coll, of Camp Very, VS.. Mac
Donald of the Tennessee, 10 rounds at
140 pounds.
Battling Robinson, of the California,
VS.. George Nelson of Camp Very, 10
rounds at 15s pounds.
Thunderbolt Higgins, of the Wash
ington, VS.. Glawson, also of the Wash
ington, 10 rounds at 142 pounds.
The other two events are not ex-
actly decided on as yet. Reilly, cham
pion lightweight of the Hawaiian Is
Hands, viii appear in one of them, but
whether he will meet Broland of the
West Virginia, or Trinkle, the fleet
champion from the Maryland, is not
yet decided.
The sailors all seem to want to see
Trinkle and Reilly go at it. Whether
this match comes off or not remains
at present ON the knees of the gods,
but it should be arranged if possible
as it would be an immense drawing
card
If Saturdays events are well pat
ronized there is possibility of an
other show on Monday night With
this possibility in view several sailors
have sent in challenges. English, the
crack pitcher of the Washington, would
like to meet the winner of the Hug
ginsG lawson bout. Battling Coffee, of
the Washington, would mix with any
body at lis pounds, Scholl preferred.
Higgins challenges all corners at the
welterweight limit of 142 pounds.
Sparrow, also of the Washington, would
fain argue with anybody at 1873 pounds.

NOT AN IDLE MAN IN TRENTON

Reports from labor circles and from
the manufacturers received lately show
that every industry of the manufaetur-
ing center of Trenton, NJ, is busy, be
hind orders, and with evident promise
of continued business.
Within the month the plumbers, ear
penters' and bricklayers' unions had to
send out of the city for more men.
There is not an idle craftsman in this
city worthy of the name. This is UNI
usual, and both manufacturers and
workmen say that good times have
come to Trenton again.-Exchange.

JACKSON DOES
HARDEST WORK
Local Champion Runs Twenty
Miles With Intervals for
k0kua.

Yesterday was the hardest one for
Jackson; today will be the hardest for
Tsukamoto. Nigel was put through
the mill properly yesterday morning
but came out smiling as usual.
First he was sent out for five miles
at an even pace of slightly more than
one minute to the lap. He completed
the thirty laps in thirty four minutes.
Then he submitted to a hard rundown
and again went five miles. He COM
pleted the second distance in slightly
better time than the first. Another
rundown and another five miles which
was also done in excellent time, yet
another rundown and he finished the
twenty miles by going another five. AT
the end he had been so restrained by
his trainers that he defed them at
the last lap and ran the entire circle
of the track as hard as he could go.
Then, closely guarded by two sleuths,
Jackson came up town for his midday
dinner. Nearly raw beefsteak and
English ale, not off the ice, and some
plain cake. This is the nearest that
he may go to pie. 1t is understood
that Jackson has placed large order
with local pie factory for pile of
different assortments of pies to be in
readiness for him on Sunday night.
After the race is over he will celebrate
or smother his sorrow in a beautiful
orgie of pie-eating.
Jap Will Go Twenty.
Tsukamoto will do twenty miles to-
day. He expects to do it at an even
pace and without any stops in be-
tween. The little Jap is looking the
very picture of health. His eyes are
clear and bright and his skin has as
much of healthy flush as his nation
atty allows.
Tsukamoto is a remarkably good
looking youth. When dressed in his
Sunday go connecting toys, the which
are really very nobby and in excellent
taste. he looks more like a dandy of
Toxic than a lad who earns his living
by the sweat of his brow.
But Tsukamoto has one great asset
that will always be with him unless
some dentist gets him in his chair. He
has smile that lights up his whole face
and shows row of even, glistening
white teeth; and that smile is very good
/ to look at. And the beauty of it is
that behind the smile, there is that
something, rather rare with his coun-
trymen, real sense of humor.
Scoring Arrangements.
The management of the park is busy
getting everything fixed up for the big
event. The scoring has this time been
reduced to fine point. In recent races
this has always been bad feature

Dennis, Miss.

A short reply to an article in
your valued paper the last issue,
signed by J A Bruton, Mayor of
Dennis, Miss, under the caption
of AN Opinion in which he de-
scribes in brief case of the state
VS. L NJ Oaks charged with prac-
ticing law without license. OF
the conviction of the defendant in
my court which is true that | had
the painful duty of presiding at
that court and to pass sentence af-
ter hearing the evidence accord
ing to the law as | understood it
and fined defendant S25 and all
cost. But not believing that Prof
L Nj Oaks willfully and knowing
ly violated the law suspended
all of the fine and held the same
up which | believed to be right
and that justice was conserved
thereby. Here | wish to leave
Prof Oaks with all the commenda-
tions | could possibly give to any
loyal citizen. But now with due
respect and honor to all concerned
in the matter and in justice to
myself want TO say something
further about this case and of
that noted opinion will say that |
have several opinions of the attor-
ney-general. But at the same
time he informed me that they
were unofficial and personal.
Therefore | considered them Just
as | would an opinion or advice of
any good lawyer. No more legal,
no more lawful than the opinion
of any other person having a law
knowledge, and could not be con-
sidered in any court to the extent
of a verdict of single juror. AS
to the guilt of this defendant from
point of law and the evidence
produced in my court the evidence
was plain and positive by two
witnesses that the defendant made
a plea in open court and referred
to certain sections of law in de-
sense of a person not himself.
The defendant admitted that he
did SC, therefore with due respect
for all, under the laws of Miss.
say he was guilty as charged, not
withstanding the fact that the con-
stitution of the state of Miss gives
every person the right to be heard
by himself or counsel or both if
they are charged with crime, but
not by any other persons. AS to
the father being natural guard
ian for the boy is O * so far as it
goes. But in criminal prosecu-
ton the boy stands for himself,
must suffer the penalties of the
law. Can be heard for himself or
counsel or both, Relative to Esq
Bruton recognizing the father as
the defendant, suppose that he
would have sent the father to Jail
in default of the payment of the
fine if the son had been convicted
and the same had not been paid
forthwith. The idea is absurd to
say the least, and in conclusion
will say ty my esteemed friend
that if he attempts to enforce the
law and deal out Justice to his
fellow men as / have done during
the q years of service as justice of
the peace, he will be pretty lucky
if some fellow is not up in arms

Y
with its various auxiliaries, il
doing one of the greatest works
now being done by christian
organization. 1t is at the bacl
of all our mission work at home
and abroad 1t supplies the bible
in about seventy five langua; e
to our missionaries for their dis
tribution at the actual cost OF
printing and often at no COST. 1t
has $50, colporteurs at its own ex-
pense distributing this book of
books. Where the people will
not buy they give them the billie.
As immigrants reach our shores
many of them are met with one of
gospels or the new testamant or
a bible, supplied by this society.
We see the Importance of this
when we 'read the startling fact
that there are 80, 900, of these
foreigners being taught in infdel
Sunday Schools every Sunday.
These Schools are teaching that
there's no God nor Christ and are
contradicting other facts of our
religion. The in portance is
shown further by the fact that
ever a million foreigners are en-
tering our lands every year Our
becoming largely for
eign. Ninety per cent of the pop
ulation of Chicago is of foreign
birth or parentage. the percen-
tage of other cities is not so large,
but is very large. If we do not
give them the word of light they
will draw us closer to their words
of darkness. If we do not do
them good they will do us much
evil, There are today forty Bud
dhists temples in the United
States. The bible is one of the
Go given remedies for this dan
ger, and the American Bible So
ciety is doing more to provide
this remedy than any other single
agency, but it has no capital and
is dependant entirely on the
people for its support.
We could not help a more needy
and worthy cause than this. We
now have an opportunity to give
it material aid, for Mrs. Russell
Sage has offered 10000, as an
fund provided others
win give a like amount. This
must be raised by Dec. 31st. 1909
Let us then give what we can to
this noble society as an endow-
nent or capital to work on. If
the christian people will give the
$500, 600, asked for this will give
them million dollars and will
greatly aid them and forward
Christ's kingdom. If any can
give to this they may hand it to
the undersigned or send it to Will
