may be able to trot out against him.
Arthur Seymour, about the best all
round billiard player in Southern Cali
fornia, is taking daily practice in pol
ishing up his stroke so that he will be
able to make a decent showing against
De ORC, former world champion at
three cushions, when the Cuban ap-
pears in his Los Angeles engagements.
Jim Morley, Billy Spinks and Hen
Berry may try conclusions with the
great billiard wizard. When De ORC
comes south to play it is expected that
he will instill new life in the numerous
good three-cushion and balk-line play
ers in the south, as well as showing
them how to play the game of pool,
at which he also is a champion.
Jack Ripper and wife passed Thurs
day at the home of Frank Chance near
Glendora and brought back an auto
mobile filled with some of the finest
oranges ever shown in Southern Cali
fornia. Chance has shipped 1900 cases
of these oranges to the east and the
success attending their sale has finally
decided the Cubs manager in his wob-
bling about where he will spend his
days of retirement after he quits the
diamond. Chance will leave for Chi
cago about next Thursday, but will
his grips and starts for his sunny
Glendora ranch.
Poor old Fireball, a stake winner at
Ascot, and once included among the
great sprinters of the country, is dying
in Oakland of fever. He was shipped
to Emeryville recently by Owner H. G..
BedWell and contracted cold on the
way. All hopes for his recovery have
been abandoned, and it is probable that
he never will face the barrier again.
JeffriNs will arrive in San Francisco
next Thursday and will be met there
by Jack Ripper and his wife and other
friends from Los Angeles. Kip intends
to attempt to persuade Jeff to come
on home and let the good sports of
Los Angeles and the southwest well
come him back after his long absence.
Jeff wants to slip in and make ready
for an extended hunting trip.
What will be the status of the Jim
Flynn claims if he repeats his victory
over Langford on ST. Patrick's day, or
does even better? Will he be given
that proper credit that has been with
held from him for so long, or will the
critics continue to rank him as a third
rater, after he has twice decisively de-
feated a fighter who is touted as en-
bodying about all the class that is left
ON tap? Flynn is much improved
fighter now, compared with his form
of one or two years ago, and it will
take a mighty classy fighter to trim
him. With added weight he also has
taken on greater confidence and is
fighting 100 per cent better than for
merly.

AUTOMOBILE DRIVER IS
BLAMED FOR MANS DEATH
Coroner's Jury investigates Circun1=
stances Surrounding Fatal
Accident

SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 1.-THE
coroner's jury at the conclusion of the
investigation of the death of Rosel
Roberds, who died this morning from
injuries he received last night by being
struck by an automobile driven by f.
w. Jonas of Rialto, held that the latter
was guilty of negligence and careless
ness in that he was driving too fast,
was on the wrong side of the street
and was not paying attention to where
he was driving.
The evidence of the inquest brought
out the fact that Jonas was greatly
exceeding the speed limit, and at the
time he struck Roberds, who leaped
from a buggy thinking that it was
about to be demolished, was looking
in the opposite direction, waving to a
friend, M. f. Showalter, who was going
in the other direction.
Jonas is to be arrested for careless
driving, and it is said that the family
of the deceased will bring civil action.
The driver of the automobile refuses
to make any statement other than the
evidence brought out at the inquest
was correct.

PLAN TO FIGHT
STEAMER MANAGUA Is FOUND
ABANDONED
Rebel Generals Plan to Advance for
Confict-Scenes in Nicaragua
Hourly Become More
Exciting
TAssoclated press1

MANAGUA, Feb. 1.-THE steamer
Managua, which was forcibly taken at
her wharf by group of thirty young
men of the Conservative party yester-
day, was recaptured today at San Ra-
mon, on the northern shore of Lake
Managua, according to an announce
ment by the government tonight. She
had been abandoned by the captors.
The body of her commander Capt.
Toruno, was found aboard.
The Managua apparently was un-
damaged, her captors having run her
into a cove at San Ramon and de-
serted her. No particulars are avail
able as to how Capt. Toruno met his
death.
The pursuit of the Managua as she
steamed out of the port in the hands
of the captors yesterday created much
excitement among the inhabitants, but
was a good deal of an opera bouffe
affair.
Three sailboats and a, small gasoline
launch, all equipped with small can
non, chased the steamer as fast as their
small sails and chugging gasoline en-
gines could drive them.
The water front was lined with ex-
cited crowds, peering anXiously through
glasses after the pursuing fiotilla, eX-
pecting to see q naval engagement.
The Managua soon distanced the pur-
suers, however and disappeared.
The government sent a small steam
er by rail from Corinto to Momomo-
binto, on the western shore of the lake,
to join in the pursuit of the Managua,
but the recapture took place before she
arrived.
Gen, Porto Carrero today reported a
skirmish with the insurgents at Sc
baco, in which he was wounded. The
insurgents, according to the report
were repulsed.
Plans to Advance
On the arrival of General Zeledon at
Moogan yesterday preparations We're
begun for q northWard movement or
General Mena's department, which
was checked by the government FORCES
in the recent engagement at Santa
Clara.
Walter Gordon's aide has been dis
patched to Panama to recruit hfty
more Americans who. armed with III
fes, are expected to join General Mona
in three weeks. This move suggests
that there will be no further actual
fighting until the reinforcement oi
American sharpshooters arrive.
General Matuty, with 200 addltional
men, is reported moving up the Mico
river, and is expected to form a juno
ton with General Mena in two weeks
The PROFESSIONALS profess that they are
not disheartened by Mena's repulse'
They point out that, although the IN
surgents were geratly outnumbered'
they gave a good account of them
selves.
There is great rejoicing here over the
news that General Chamerro had oc-
cupied Matagalpa, as that departhl,G,Ihe l,,Ile
citv of Matagalpa is but about seven
ty-five miles from Managua, the ooJec-
tive point of the revolutionists.

HIGH COST OF LIVING
RESULT OF HUGE GROWTH
Increase in Population of Big
Cities Is Given AS One of the
Principal Causes

NEW YORK, Sept. s.-That the re-
markable increase in the population OF
the big cities of the country shown by
the 18th census is one of the leading
causes OF the prevailing high cost of liv-
ing, is the declaration of Prof. Benjamin
Clarke Marsh, secretary of the commit
tee on congestion OF population in New
York
while the census returns show that
Detroit is the leader in the rapid growth
of big cities in this country, several
OF the boroughs in New York have ex-
ceeded Detroit said Professor Marsh.
The Bronx. for instance, has increased
it's population nearly twice as rapidly as
Detroit. This phenomenal jump has in
creased the cost OF living because we
have continued in cities. particularly large
cities. persons who could and should pro-
vide for themselves on farm.
Then, again, our centers of produc-
ton are an enormous distance
from our centers OF consumption. We
have In New York city. roughly speak
ing. 1-1sth of the total population of the
country. The raw material for the goods
we produce is shipped here from all parts
of the country and then shipped back
again. Somebody pays the freight and 1t
is the consumer in the long run"

CIRCUS TO GIVE SHOW
FOR ELKS' BENEFIT

SAVANNAH, Ga, Sept. 3.-When John
Robinson's circus comes to Savannah
next month for the purpose of showing
under the auspices of the Savannah
lodge OF Elks, 1t is expected its tents
will be pitched outside the city limits
and It is not believed 1t will indulge In
the luxury of a street parade through
the streets of Savannah. City council
only taxes circuses $1,000 a day and it
will be to avoid the payment OF this tax
that the circus will show outside the
city limits.
1t is possible 1t may 60 to Thunder
bolt. The local lodge of Elks hopes TO
clear a pretty good roll of coin on this
circus. It owns a club house which is
unpaid for and 1t will be the purpose Of
the circus promoters to get the debt
reduced as much as possible through the
aid of old John Robinson's lions, tigers,
acrobats and "sich.
