best developed men the college has had
in years. has the pugilistic fever.
Long, who entered Harvard from,
Bonegap. Ariz., where he was a Cow

ILL.,, wants to meet Jack Johnson in q
squared circle and thinks he can wrest
from the negro the title of world s
champion.
Long is nearly as big as johnson and
always has been in perfect shape, due
in part he claims, to his scientific Sc
lection of food, which in his years of
college life has cost him not more than
one dollar a week.
Il can box a little and have done so,
both before and after coming to Har-
ward" said Long in discussing his new
felt felt ambition. II should like to
meet Johnson, pugilistically speaking;
even more, I should take pleasure in
defeating him.
Long not only has taken the lead in
many of the Harvard athletics. but on
his vacations in the last three years
has sramped through many countries
in Europe, Asia and Africa.

SENDS PRINTED ARGUMENT.
The Pennsylvania Mails a Pamphlet
to Each Trainman.

Philadelphia, July 11.-Each train
man, conductor, engineer and fireman
employed by the Pennsylvania Rail-
way company on its line east of Pitts
burg, Buffalo and Erie received in his
mail today g pamphlet from the COM
pany entitled, 1.-THE PENNSYLVANIA Rail
road Wage Discussion" Although the
engineers and fremen are not in
volved in the demands of the conduc-
tors and trainmen for an increase in
wages of from to 20 per cent, the
pamphlet was sent them because of
the close affiliation between the differ
ent labor organizations of which the
men are members.
The publication, which is addressed
ITO All Employees gives prominence
to clause in the statement issued by
the Order of Railway Conductors and
Brotherhood of Trainmen, which says
that generally speaking the rates paid
by the Pennsylvania Railroad company
compare favorably to the rates paid
by other companies but that the men
think the Pennsylvania rate should be
higher because the company educated
their men to the belief that railway
employees are entitled to from to 90
panies.
1t is understood that the $4,000
trainmen and conductors on the east
ern lines involved in the matter have
voted on the strike proposition and
that the ballots are being counted in
Cleveland.

CALLS THEM SANDER TRUST.
r. j. Hopkins Has New Name for Adj
ministration Critics.

Richard J. Hopkins of Garden City,
candidate for lieutenant governor, ar
rived in Topeka today to join Governor
Stubs on his speaking tour this week.
They will spend the week in the Sew
enth and Eighth districts as follows:
Tuesday at Pratt, Wednesday at King
man, Thursday at Hutchinson. Friday
afternoon at Lindsborg, Friday night
at Mcpherson and Saturday afternoon
at Marion and that night at Hillsboro-
In regard to the Wagstaff criticisms
of the Hutchinson reformatory, of
which he is one of the trustees, Mr.
Hopkins made, the following state
ment:
"It is gratifying indeed to have the
SANDER trust admit that it published
false statements about the state re-
formatory. 1t will be remembered
that Memo Dumont Smith) in his first
attack on the reformatory falsely stat
ed that they (the present manage
ment) spent the twelve months ap-
preparation in ten months. and have a
deficiency for all of June I showed
that Nemo's statement was false, and
that as matter of fact that after all
June bills were paid the refOrmatory
would turn back into the state treas
ury approximately $500 of unused
appropriations
1.-The young men who write the ad-
vertisements for this trust attempt to
let themselves down easy now by say
ing there was barely sufficient to dis
charge the obligations incurred on the
June account. Being caught red hand
ed in this falsehood. they now attempt
to mislead the people by giving a long
list of figures and by attempting to
compare what the term estimated ap-
propriations' and actual cost
'They parade the fact that one of
the thirty-one various funds (the con-
tingent fund.- has been drawn upon
this year, and attempt to deceive the
people into the idea that this is a
gross offense.
"As matter of fact, the contingent
fund is one that is set aside for the
purpose of replenishing any one of the
thirty other funds that may run short,
and has been drawn on every year in
the history of the reformatory since
1904. The statement that 1 denied
that the contingent fund has been
used is false: in fact, $1,000 of it was
used to replace rotten and worn out
water pipes for which the reformatory
had no other money.
1.-THE other improvements made at
the institution which I have hereto
fore enumerated were made for the
benefit of the institution and the
state. and since the SANDER trust is
complaining so bitterly of the money
spent for these improvements. let them
be definite and certain. Let them state
which one of the various improve
ments was not proper or not econom-
ical
tThey suggest that 1 am too busy
campaigning for lieutenant governor
to attend to my business, but 1 am

twenty-five years ago. 1t was once
one of the pretentious business build
ings of Kansas avenue like the one
which stood at the corner now being
made the site of the new Rigby
building.
Miss Mills, owner of the building at
429 Kansas avenue, is now absent
from the CITY, Her announcement
was that $4,000 or more would be
spent in remodeling the front and up
per floor of that number. Including
this piece of remodeling ten numbers
on this block will have been made eov-
er in the present year. These include
the building at AIS Kansas avenue, 4oc-
cupied by H. M Ives & Sons; the Cor
don Bros, building at Fourth and
Kansas avenue, three numbers; the
Rigby building one number; the
building at 431 and 433 Kansas ave-
nue. belonging to Mrs. G. G. Gage: the
single number leased by N. H. Wolff,
and the two numbers owned by DR..

Mrs. Astor quits One Over" on the
Duchess of Marlborough.

London, July 1.-THE dull skies of
the English climate have not blunted
the fine edge of Mrs. Mamie Lang
horne Astors wit, the Duchess of
Marlborough discovered to her confu-
sion recently.
Mrs. Astor and the duchess at an
afternoon tea had an animated discus
sion on the American 'saristocracy,"
the duchess contending that the Van
derbilts occupied a higher position on
the social scale than the Astors. She
did this in that nice, sweet way which
society folk adopt. Mrs. Aston with
equal sweetness responded:
why, Consuelo, the Astors had
stopped skinning skunks for genera
lions before the Vanderbilts began
collecting ferry tolls thereby estab-
fishing the precedence of the Astors
over the Vanderbilts and at the same
time demolishing the presumptions of
both families to distinguished descent.
