A REMARKABLE ADJUSTMENT.
The United States czsualty Co. Pays
Large Claim Promptly.

The public was probably surprised
by the statement made on Sunday
by the r. r. Hopkins & Son Insnr-
ance agency in their advertisement.
which appears in The News referring
to the claim paid to DR.. G. g. Howell
by the United States Casualty Co.
The putlic is familiar with the facts
of the occurrence, which resulted in
the accidental shooting of Dr. Howell
in an encounter with a burglar in his
home, on the night of Jan 3, causing
him to lose one of his feet. The
statement in Dr.. Howell letter to the
company shows that ne received on
Jan. &c s12,500 in settlement of his
claim.
Il is a most remarkable occurrence
where a claim Of this kind involving
the payment of so large an amount
was paid without hesitation, litigation
or delay in less than 20 days after
notice to the company. This affair
demonstrates definitely the great pro
lection, the necessity and the in
trinsic value of this class of insurance
as well as the extraordinary prompt
ness and fairness of the company
which carried the risk, and efficiency
of the local agents which represent
them in satisfactorily settling the
claim in a few days after it was made

Prejudice Is Not Getting the
Better of Britons' Bet
ting Judgment.

LONDON, Feb. 21.-Race prejudice as
strong as ever manifested itself in the
United States is cropping out here in
connection with the twenty-round fight
tonight between Sam Langford, the Bos-
ton Tar Baby, and Bill Lang. the Aus
tralian.
Hundreds of letters have been re-
ceived at Lang's camp from all over
England, wishing him luck in his ef-
fort to uphold the white race.
Last evening. large delegation, most
Of whom were women. visited Lang
ford's headquarters and openly insulted
the black man by telling him they
hoped he would have his head knocked
off" If Lang answers this prayer, he
will be the most popular man in Eng
land.
While the public is pulling for Lang
to win, it isn't letting its favoritism
get the better of its judgment, and
Langford is still on the long end in
the betting, at\ odds of to 4. 1t Is
estimated that $175.OOO has been wagered
on the fight in big bets alone.
Physicians examined Lang today and
pronounced him the finest physical
specimen they had ever seen. Langford
is in his usual jolly mood and repeated
his prediction today that he would put
Lang away inside of twelve rounds.

star bout OF ten rounds at McGuigan's

LIMIT EXTENDED
Number of Athletes to Take
Part in Indoor Meet to
Break Record.

Owing to the large number of en-
tries that are pouring in for the George
town indoor meet here at Convention
Hall on March 4, Manager Wymard,
of the Blue and Gray track team, has
decided to extend the time limit until
February %.
The list of entries this years are ex-
pected TO be the largest in the history
of the games and Manager Wymard is
having a busy time classifying the
numerous relay teams that have al
ready entered.
The Georgetown team is being kept
hard at practice and the squad is in
good shape The relay team is likely
to be the same as represented the Blue
and Gray at the Boston games Gibbs
will most probably start off again with
Davis, Sprowles and Martin following in
the order named.
Golden, for the reps, is looked upon
as a likely candidate for place hOnors
in the hurdles. The Props will also
enter a team to decide the interschOlas-
tic title of the District.

Yale Eleven Not After
Game With Williams

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Feb. 21.-Man-
ager Kaynor, of the Yale football eleven,
declares that there is no truth in the
statement that he was negotiating with
Williams College for a game next fall.
The Williams management had arranged
game with Dartmouth on the only
open date Yale had, and all idea of play
ing game was long since abandoned.
Manager Kaynor said that Yale's
schedule was still held up by failure to
settle one game. He denied that a purse
of 5000 was being made up to induce
Harvard Jones to return to Yale as head
coach, or that Fitzpatrick had been offer
ed the position. Jones can have the
position If he will take it, but the
faculty is averse to allowing a 5000
purse to be raised for the coach.
