H|PPE[L AND YOUNG
TO BOX TONIGHT
White Man Will Try and Avenue
Jefries' 0efeat-Bout of Ten
Rounds on Naval Wharf

THIS evening on the naval wharf
there viii be some boxing bouts and
several good scraps are expected to be
pulled off. Hippell, a white man. Will
box Young, a negro, ten rounds and
the go IS expected to be sIashing one.
Both men are said to be clever with
the mltS and there is only q difference
of i've yOunds in their weights. The
two pagilists hail from the naval trans
port Buffalo, which is at the wharf.
Young was beaten in Manila some
time ago, and q fellow named Simpson
was the man who did the trick The
punch that took Young goat was con
sidered by all those present at the ring
side to be a very lucky one
Hippell has a wallop in both hands,
and the colored gentleman viii have to
be agile to avoid defeat. Both the
men are likely enough looking custom
ers, and real good contest should re-
suit tonight.
The preliminaries will be more in the
way Of impromptu affairs, and yester-
day afternoon the names of the men
who will take part in the contests were
not definitely known.
The naval dock is an ideal place for
a boxing show and, if the rain holds
off. there will be a big crowd on the
wharf for sure. And the deck of the
Buffalo will make a good grandstand,
from which the soldiers and sailors will
be able to watch the 60 in comfort.

VERY CLOSE GAME
Of INDOOR BALL

Indoor baseball IS going strong all
around and at the PaIama Settlement
last night there was a great game be
tween the PaIama Juniors and the
Beretania outfit. The result was win
for the Beretanias by a score Of 70 to
p, and the play all through was close
enough to satisfy anybody.
\ large crowd gathered to watch the
plav and from start to finish, the game
was exciting and very fast. The fans
were kept going all the time, and when
in the fifth inning a triple play was
brought off. the rooters went up IN the
air with delight.
The indoor baseball players are very
keen on the subject and the league sus'
tains the interest by the many matches
that are arranged. Almost as much eX
citement is worked up over an indoor
game. as over the ordinary outdoor
struggle, and the fans do all the stunts
that they are noted for when surround
ing a real diamond.
The fans regret that the indoor series
is about finished now. but they are
looking forward to some other form OF
exercise for the long winter evenings

ROOSEVELT CARFARE
IS BURNING ISSUE
Resolutions For InquirykWiI
Be Pushed.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 27.-Tmmed-
lately after Congress reconvenes on
January 5, Representative Henry T.
Rainey, of Illinois, will introduce an
other resolution providing for Con-
gressional inquiry into the gratuitous
rides given Mr.. Roosevelt by the Penn
sylvania and other railroads. The
stockholders of these railroads are
not pleased that Mr.. Roosevelt got
what is estimated at considerably
more than $4,000 worth of free
transportation, which was taken from
their dividends. Mr.. Rainey is hear
ing from these stockholders. Among
them was a complaint from a stock
holder of the Southern system, who
estimates that Mr.. Roosevelt owes that
railroads 100000.
The new resolution by Mr. Rainey
will be a substitute for that now pend
ing before the Rules Committee of the
House of Representatives This reso-
luton was introduced on December 10.
1t called for a committee of five TO
inquire into the charge that Mr..
Roosevelt in seven years of the Pres
idency had incurred an Indebtedness
of 100000 to the Pennsylvania Rail-
road hich had never been paid.
1t was Mr. Rainey's position that it
should be discovered whether Mr..
Roosevelt owed the debt, or if the
United States Government owes it. If
the Government, he wants the exact
amount fixed so that the stockholders
may be reimbursed by an appropria-
ton of Congress.
The resolution, Mr.. Rainey has
found, is inadequate to the needs of
the situation. The substitute which
he will propose will empower the in
vestigating committee to subpoena
witnesses, to call for the books of the
railroad corporations and to admin
lister oaths and punish reluctant or
eontumacious witnesses.
In addition to the contingent fund of
the House of Representative will pe
made available for the payment of
expenses of the committee, such as
clerk hire, mileage and other incident
ais, should the committee have to
leave Washington in it's search for
testimony.
Another resolution calling on the
Treasury Department and the White
House for any books, papers or re-
ports of the Roosevelt trips may be
drafted. This information would es-
tablish before Congress whether
Roosevelt had officially ordered trans
portation from the railroads which
was never paid for.

SEAT 23 PROVES
A SENATE HOODOO
Defeat or Death Fate Of Many
Of Its Occupants.

Washington, ID. c., Dec. H-Who is
going to get seat No. % in the Senate
under the readjustment necessary be-
cause of the recent elections is a ques-
ton being asked at the Capitol Next
March marks the passing of many of
the old-timers and those Senators who
have not had the choice seats are now
filing their applications with the SER
geant-at-arms for some coveted place.
Most of the Senators may not know it,
but a little investigation shows that
seat No % is a hoodoo
The Indian sign" first was put on
No. % when Senator Wolcott, of Colo
RADIO, occupied it. He was defeated for
reelection and died abroad shortly
afterward Senator Wolcott vacated
it, and died in Office. Then Senator
Wetmore took it for a few months,
only to have the Rhode Island Legis-
lature become deadlocked. 1t as six
months before Senator Wetmore was
returned and in the meantime his seat
was forfeited.
Senator Kittridge was sitting there
when Senator Wetmore reached the
Senate after the deadlock ended, and
he was defeated when next he came
up for election. Senator Burkett, of
Nebraska, who has been occupying
No % of late years, has just met de-
feat in that State and will be succeed
ed by Representative Hitchcock. No
hoodoo has seemed to attach to No. 13

SCHOOL RANCH FOR TENDER
FOOTS WAS SIMPLY A MYTH
The Texan Who Advertised to Teach
COw-PHnching Arrested.

Washington, Dec. 27.-City boys who
have Toasted their eyes on advertise
ments describing a school for cowboys
at San Antonio, Texas, will be sorry
to learn that the concern has been
pronounced a fraud by Postmaster
General Hitchcock.
The institution was under the man
agement of one Carl Smith at 2O9
Soledad Street 1t offered to take any
bright, agile urchin and make a first
class COW puncher of him while he
waited, horse, saddle, lariat, ladigos
chaps and spurs being furnished Be
sides the city headquarters, the con-
Germ advertised as having a ranch
called Ell Rincorn, where the boys
who showed special proficiency in
roping and riding would receive jobs
at $40 a month. Carl Smith is under
arrest at San Antonio and Ell Rincon
proves to be an imaginary ranch.

TO AILlNG WOMEN.
d Little Sound Advice VIII Help Many
a Sufferer in Americas.


No woman can be healthy and well
If the kidneys are sick. Poisons that
pass off in the secretions when the
kidneys are well are retained in the
body when the kidneys are sick. Kid
neys and bladder become inflamed and
swollen and worse troubles quickly
follow. This is often the true cause
of bearing down pains, lameness, back
ache, sideache, etc. Uric acid poison.
ing also causes headaches, dizzy spells,
languor, nervousness and rheumatis
pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's Kid
ney Pills, a remedy that cures sick
kidneys. You will get better as the
kidneys get better, and health will
return when the kidneys are we'll. Let
an Americas woman tell about Doan's
Kidney Pills.

and at times / had headaches and felt
dull and languid. Some time ago !
was advised to try Doans Kidney
Pills and I procured a box at Dod-
sons Pharmacy. Since using them /
have felt great deal better. They
relieved me of the pains in my bach
