or the other members OF tne camp "oic
aroused.
The origin of the blaze is a mystery.
Some believe it might have been the
work of an incendiary, and the matter
has been put in the hands OF the
police.
1t was an easy day for Jeh's train
ers as the big fellow went on hsh-
ing excursion to the Big basin and was
gone all day. He did not return to his
quarters until late this evening. when
he appeared laden down with plenty
of choice rainbows, He was accom-
panied by his brother, Jack
WORK ONE DAY, REST NEXT
The members of the camp are able
to figure the dope on the big fellow
now better than they were some weeks
ago. 1t is better than an even money
bet that if he spends a busy day on
the road and at boxing he will not
do any work the next day outside OF
travelling along the streams whipping
them in search of game fish.
The big fellow has rounded to sucn
grand condition that the members of
his training staff are glad TO see MIN
go, as they are taking no chances or
him going stale. They think that when
he takes day off it allows him TO take
on some weight and reserve force, so
that when he goes into training the
next day he Will De IulI Oh Will his
handlers think he is so good that they
would like to have the fight come of
within a few days from now.
OPEN AIR ARENA READY
The new open air arena is ready for
the big fellow, and there were a num-
Der of visitors here today, but they
were disappointed. Corbett is ready
for JEFF at any time that the latter
wants to don the mitts. Corbett ex-
poets to get the call at any time. In
fact, he remained around the camp all
day. expecting that Jeffries would re-
turn from his fishing trip and call upon
him to box.
Corbett himself is doing lot Of work
and he is getting nearer to shape every
day. When he is not boxing with
Joe Choynski he is either playing hand
ball or indulging in some outdoor ex-
ercise.
The system of massaging which JEFF
goes through daily is more than an
ordinary man could stand His mus
cles are pulled and twisted by two OF
three expert masseurs, and he is often
on the rubbing board for an hour
Roger Cornell superintends this work
and has had wide experience in con-
ditioning athletes. Cornell has resigned
his position as trainer for the Portland
| baseball team and expects to remain
with jeff on his theatrical tour after

Washington Feb. 26.-Gifford
Pinchot, on the witness stand today,
accused Ballinger Of overturning the
conservation policies of Roosevelt and
of making false statements to Pres-
dent Taft. He charges that Balilnger
entered office with the intention TO
making short work of the policy of
protecting water sites against monop-
olistic control. He said he is con-
WINGED that CLAWS was faithful
public servant and Rallinger is a dan
gerous enemy to conservation.
When the story has been told"
Rnchot said. "and the witnesses
whom | shall ask you to call have
been heard, you will realize that the
Interests of the people are not safe
in Ballinger's hands"
Pinchot referred to the letter he
sent to President Tart on November
4, in which he said he advised Gla-
Wis to lay the Alaskan matter before
the president. Ballinger didn't notify
the forest service that application
had been made to patent the Cum
ningham claims. he said, although a
part of them lay within the forest re-
serves, and later he denied access to
records in the case 10 men repre-
senting the forestry department.
The letter states that on March 20.

ed, and what has been declared to be
illegal was soon to be within the law

chot also charged that Ballinger's
unfriendly attitude toward the re-
clamation service has threatened to
disintegrate that service.

for Causing Explosion With Intent
to Kill-Woman Alleges Venerable
Physician Is Father of Her Child.

Santa Rosa, Calf, Feb. 26.-Two,
indictments, one charging him with
attempted murder by means of dyna-
mite or some other explosive, and the
other with abortion, were returned
yesterday afternoon against DR.. Will
ard p. Burke, as a result of thre days
investigation by the grand jury of So
noma county into circumstances sur
rounding the dynamiting of the tent
house occupied by Luella Smith and
1-months-old baby February
5. The inquisitorial body, composed
OF representative citizens of Santa
Rosa and vicinity. severaI OF whom
were warm friends or Burke, report
ed the indictments to Superior Judge
Sewell last night. Bail fixed at s20,-
600 on one Indictment, and $4,000 on
the other, was quickly furnished.
The aged and patriarchal appear
ing osteopathic physician, who is
widely known throughout the state,
and to whose sanitarium hundreds of
people have come in search of health,
is charged with having "feloniously,
wilfully. unlawfully and maliciously
deposited and exploded in or near the
tent house occupied by Luella Smith
and her child, dynamite, Hercules
powder or other chemical compound,
with the intent then and there to
felonous!y injure said Luella Smith
and that by means OF said deposit
and explosion said Luella Smith was
thereby injured" The other indict-
ment charges him with having per-
formed an abortion upon a young
married woman of Sonoma county.
Smith Woman Not Attractive.
Unusual interest attached to the
last days investigation of the grand
jury because of the fact that the
Smith woman had been called to
testify A large crowd gathered in
the vicinity of the grand jury rooms
to get n glimpse of the woman who
charges that the aged physician is
the father of her son. There was a
murmur of disappointment from those
who expected to see young and at
tractive woman. When Miss Smith
appeared they saw a woman about 40
or AZ years old, unusually tall ana

low, cadaverous face. Looking older
than she actually is and angular in
the extreme, there is nothing prepos-
sessing, much less seductive in her
appearance, which is far from the
pictures that one would conjure of
the woman who had caught the fancy
of the long bearded physician.
Burke is Child's Father.
Miss Smith, it is said told the grand
jury of her alleged relations with DR..
Burke and in testifying repeated the
statements that she has made several
times to the effect that DR.. Burke is
the father of her child.
Correspondence between Miss Smith
and DR.. Burke was placed before the
inquisitorial body, indicating that the
two had known each other for num-
ber of years.

LONDON TO CONSECRATE
CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL

London.-The Roman Catholic
cathedral at Westminster is to be
consecrated on June 2S, fifteen years
from the laying of the. foundation
stone by the late Cardinal Vaughan.
1t is $50 feet long and 156 feet
wide, the nave is III feet high and
the campanile 27S feet high. The
building covers an area Of $4,000
square feet, and is.built of brick and
stone
The actual structure was finished
in 1908, and services have been held
in it since then, but as planned it is
probable that the cathedral will not
be completed for another generation
at least. Up to 1907 it is estimated
that s1,O00,000 has been spent on the
building, apart from the cost of the
