In sporting resort in the east end
OF London a popular Irish pugilist was
matched against a burly clever ne
gro. The Irishman was a hot favorite,
and his friends bet heavily that he
would whip his colored opponent. The
referee was also an Irishman, and
when in the first round the negro
reached the Irish fighters jaw and the
latter's head thumped the boards with
crash that seemed to preclude fur
ther contest the following monologue
by the referee as he stood over the fall
len favorite, counting the seconds,
took place:
"One!" Un an undertone to his
g&Sping compatriot. Come on, man:
get out o. that. Are -ez guin to let
'his black son Of Ham say he knock
cd yez out?)
Two. CWurrah, man. can't veg
raise yourself and listen to what I'm
tellin' yez? Come on; get upD
"Three (For the sake Of yer
father that bled on many a field get
up and wipe up the floor with this
black smoke that's GRIMM at yezD
-Four! Can sure are yez goin' to
lie there slapin' while this limb of
Satan takes all the money? Get up,
1 say, afore I pull yez up!"
This sort of entreaty continued un-
til, as the disgusted referee fingered
on the final count, the badly dazed
Irish pugilist staggered to his feet,
swung widely at the unguarded negro
and bowled him over Unexpectedly.
Quick as flash the ever ready ref
cree sprang to the PROSTATE colored
man, who, though dazed and weak,
was wildly struggling to regain his
feet, and counted:
"One, two, three, four, five and
hve Is ten! You're out, you naygur!"

TASKS FOR BURBANK.
How the Plant Wizard Might Help
Humanity.
Philadelphia Public Ledger.

Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Luther Burbank, the wizard of
plant life, has, it seems perfected a
new poppy, of titanic dimensions and
brilliantly variegated coloring, togeth-
er with a primrose of vestal white
ness inches in diameter. He has
proved that he can do almost any
thing with plants and flowers. 1t has
been suggested that he might devote
his energies to producing a bachelors
button that can be sewed on SO that
1t WON'T come off, and a sage brush
to go with the coxcomb. But there
are great many other horticultural
needs to which he ought to devote his
attention. Some persons are urging
Burbank to give them a cantaloupe
without seeds, and odorless onions.
Those who have become disaffect-
ed with the new-fangled breakfast ce-
reals want Burbank to devise a
mushroom that will yield a superior
grade of mush, and they hope that
by crossing lemons and watermelons
plant may be evolved that will con-
tain lemonade, just as some varieties
OF cactus are reservoirs of water.
They fully expect that by grating ap.
pies on pine trees he can produce
pineapples, and they look to him with
confidence to get prunes by properly
pruning the hedges. But while ev-
| erybody wishes Burbank would give
| them the best kind Of thyme, some
| people wish the thyme were shorter
and others want it longer. Others
| object to Burbank's activities in gen.
| eral, on the ground that he is a graf
ter. 1t is impossible to please every
one.

JAPAN TO.
ABROGATE
The TREATY
[unitod Press Leasea wIre. }

Washington, June 13.-Diplomats
are discussing today the sudden re-
call of Prince and Princess Fushimi,
of Japan, who are touring America.
There is speculation as to whether
the order has any connection with
Japan's intention to renounce the ex-
isting treaty with America. 1t is be-
lieved the treaty will be formally re-
nounced next Friday.
While Japan's anticipated act is
no sign of hostility, there is a feeling
that Japan did not seek to place the
prince in an embarrassing position
should the treaty negotiations result
disastrously.
The present treatry was negotiat-
ed in the last administration of
President Cleveland. Japan desires
to obtain an up to date agreement
with America. Prince and Princess
Fushimi have cancelled several trips,
including those planned to Niagara
Falls and Chicago. They will start
for Seattle tomorrow and sail for
Japan within a few days.

that this nerve controls will also

1t was DR.. Shoop that first pointed
to this vital truth. Dr. Shoop's Re-

WELCOME NEWS
FOR SUFFERERS
FROM RHEUMATISM
The Disease Is Permanently Cured
by DR.. Williams Pink Pills
and Complete Information
Is Free for the Asking.

Every one who suffers from rheuma-
tism will recognize the description of a
genuine case at sight.
In the following brief statement are
wildly described the symptoms which
every patient viii recognize and the means
by which cure was effected in this case
is described with equal fidelity
If you are suffering from any form OF
rheumatism with loss of flesh and strength,
and thinning of the blood, the remedy
that was so effective here deserves a
thorough trial.
Mr.. George c. Long, a farmer, whose
address is Box 43, r. F. d. No. /, Oak
land, Ore, says:
"When ] was quite young, l was a
sufferer from rheumatism for nearly two
years. The pains were in my neck and
back and were 80 intense that my neck
was drawn back. My mother was afraid
that 1 would be cripple for life. be-
came pale, weak, and thin.
81 was treated by doctors for over q
year and tried numerous remedies but
received no benefit. Then my mother de-
cided to have me try Dr. Williams Pink
Pills The first few boxes helped me and
l began to gain in flesh and strength. A
thorough trial Of the pills entirely cured

That the ordinary medical treatments
OF rheumatism are far from satisfactory
is known by every one who has ever suf-
fered from the disease. To every sufferer,
therefore, the fact that DIR. Williams
Pink Pills cure rheumatism, as hundreds
of cases like Mr.. Longs proves, will be
welcome news. Some of these cures are
given in our booklet, Diseases of the
Blood" which will be sent free upon
postal card request.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are also
highly recommended for chlorosis or
green sickness, general debility, anemia,
stomach trouble, and the after-effects OF
the grip and fevers.

druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt Of price, so cents per box; six
boxes for $3.50, by the Or. Williams
