DENNIS BROTHERS
GET TRIAL
TOMORROW
PRELIMINARY HEARING WILL BE
HELD AT RAYMoND-REFUsE
TO MAKE STATEMENT.

Jackson, Sept 17-Louis Dennis,
charged with the murder of Monnie
Watson, tragedy enacted on the
streets of Raymond Saturday morn
ing, will be given preliminary trial
at Raymond Wednesday.
J. G. Watson, father of the dead
boy, has retained Messrs. Wells &
Wells, of this city, to aid in the
prosecution. Owing to the fact that
the local magistrate at Raymond, JUS
tice ]. P. Dolan, is i'll, the case will
be tried before Justice L. w. Lowrey,
of Learned.
The Dennis brothers continus to
maintain absolute silence, refusing to
discuss any phase of their case. News
paper men who have attempted to in
terview them met with curt refusals
and they also declined to pose for
a photographer.
County Attorney o. B. Taylor, who
returned yesterday from Raymond,
where he investigated the evidence,
states that he found nothing indicat-
ing that James Dennis, father Of the
two boys. was in any way involved in
the killing. In fact, James Dennis
was out of the county at the time of
the tragedy, and the theory that the
Dennis boys were forcing Watson to
go to the livery stable in order that
their father could witness the killing
Is therefore untenable.

GIRL IS UPPER CUT WINS
Champion Goes to Dreamland When
She Begins Attack.

Saginaw, Mich, April 27.-In a pri-
waite gymnasium fitted up in one Of
the most prominent residences in Flint
with only one woman and man as
referee present, Myrtle Havers, 10
years old of Flint, knocked out Mable
Williams, aged %. of Grand Rapids,
Mich, in the seventh round of a sched-
uled ten round fight and won the girls
championship of Michigan last night.
The two fought with eight ounce
gloves and under straight Queensberry
rules, and Miss Williams, who has
in Michigan for several years, was
uppercut after she had severely pun
ished Miss Havers in the early part of
the seventh.
The two had f1ddled through the
early rounds, feeling each other out
and sparring for points, but at the
beginning of the seventh round the
Grand Rapids girl let loose a volley
of straight rights and lefts which
caught the Flint challenger on the
eyes Miss Havers right eye was
closed. Then she set sail and began to
fail the air with blows and the upper
cut went home. Miss Williams stayed
down the ten seconds and was duly
counted out.
Friends of the winner picked her up
on their shoulders and decorated her
with the club colors, pink and white,
and have sent to Chicago for a bronze
medal, which they say will be emblem
attic of the girls boxing championship
of the state.

HE PLAYS 49 HOURS.
Italian, "a Minutes Short of Mark,
Falls Exhausted.

New York, April z7.-"Prof. Ca
mile Bauchia, the italian musician,
who started out on Wednesday even
ing tn break all endurance records
for continuous performance at the
piano, fell exhausted from his stool on
the platform of the Tammany hall
ball room late last night, and was
counted OUT by the umpires. The
official score board showed that he
had played without stopping for ex-
actly 40 hours and So minutes. The
best previous record was 80 hours, it
is said. Bauchia had hoped to set the
mark at SO hours. and he was only
"a minutes short of this coveted rec
ord when he dropped from exhaus-
ton.
The professor was revived in a few
minutes and received a great ovation
from a crowd of admiring country
men. He declared that he was not
satisfied with his new record and
would at once begin preparations for
another test, at which he hopes to
move the mark up to SIS hours
In the course of his -engag cement
with the piano, Bauchia played over
600 compositions, which he charac-
terized as the best work so far of
ancient and modern masters, both
popular and classical" While the con-
test was under way he was allowed no
except an occasional cup
of black coffee.

PUT OFF THAW CASE.
Long Study of Records Necessary Bee
fore Trial.

New Rochelle. N. Y, April 20
When Harry Thaw's case comes into
court here tomorrow it is probable
that an immediate adjournment will
be granted to give the states attor-
ncys time for preparation. There are
twelve volumes of testimony in the
two trials of Thaw to be gone over,
and in addition to these there is a vol
ume or so of testimony in the hear
ing before Justice Morschauser in
Poughkeepsie.i The testimony in the
hearing before Justice Mills in White
Plains has only been transcribed in
part, as no appeal was taken. There
is enough of this testimony to make
two w. IL mes more.
The stenographer who took the
minutes in the hearing before Justice
Mills is in a New York hospital and
it is not certain how long it will be
before he is able to be at work again.
Until he completes the transcribing of
his notes, the state will probably be
unwilling to go on with the present
hearing. There has been no move as
yet by the state to employ ex-Dis-
trict Attorney Jerome and without
him there is no one sufficiently IA
miIiar with the case to handle it with
out a long and tedious study of the

TOO MUCH WHISKY.
Kentucky Disti1Iers Have Overstocked
the Market.

Louisville, April 27.-Overproduc-
ton of Kentucky whisky, similar to
that during the four years from 1890
to 1898, inclusive which was followed
by several years of depression is fear
ed by local distillers who have agreed
that curtailment in the output is inn
perative.
The trade has produced about co.
10000 gallons in the last two years,
more than 100000 In excess of the
demand.
Distillers say tremendous impetus
was given the production of Kentucky
bourbon by the pure food rulings as
to what constitutes real whisky, and
many increased the capacity of their
plants in anticipation of a big de-
mand. The overthrow of DR.. Wiley's
conclusion later cut into the consump-
ton of aging whisky.
Jobbers all over the country they
say, practically have ceased buying
anything younger than 191O'S and
when they buy goods of older inspec-
ton the purchases are altogether for
immediate wants.

POST TO Be SENTENCED
Dead Miner Scheme Used to Fleece
Hundreds of Victims.

New York, April 27.-George w.
Post, alias William Carter, will be SEN
fenced here next week on his plea of
guilty to four indictments charging
him with use of the mails for fraudu-
rent purposes. Post is notorius conf
dence man, according to criminal rec
ords and in conjunction with E. A.
Starkloff, he operated the dead min
er" swindle many years ago by which
hundreds of Europeans were defraud-
ed. He and Starkloff were pursued
the world over and finally captured,
but on the eve of their trial last June
the prisoners fled in forfeit of $4,000
bail. Post was later found in Chicago
but his mate is still missing.
Posts admission of guilt was upon
agreement that federal indictments
standing against the men in Chicago
and Philadelphia and a state indict-
ment in Boston would be quashed.

DR.. PEARSONS IS DEAD
Noted Philanthropist Passes Away at
the Age of 90 Years.

Chicago. April 27.-Dr. Daniel Kim
ball Pearsons, phiIanthropist, philoso-
pher and idealist, died at 2:45 o'clock
this morning. DR.. Pearsons, who con-
tracted pneumonia Saturday last, had
kept up so well that up to a late hour
last night, hope for his recovery was
strong.
At midnight, however. after passing
the five day crisis usual in pneumonia
DR.. Pearsons lost his usual interest
in life and instead of omplaining on
being kept in bed, began to speak of
the future life.
Later he lapsed into unconscious
ness. Shortly before he passed away
he rallied once more, and after talk
ing to his nurse, said softly, I'm
tired and lying back on his pillows,
died peacefully within a few minutes.
DR.. Pearsons was go years old.
Funeral services will be held next
Tuesday. Burial will be at Hinsdale.
Scores Of college presidents whose
institutions received gifts from DR..
Pearsons will attend. Before his death
DR.. Pearsons gave 100000 to small
colleges in different parts Of the coun-
try, it being his desire to dispose of
his entire fortune before he died.

BOOM IN STOCKS.
Securities Attain a New High Level on
Wall Street.

New York, April 27.-Stocks as a
whole attained a new high level this
week, the bull movement of March
having been resumed. There was this
difference, however, that the rise af-
fected the railway issues rather than
the copper shares and certain indus
trials which were features of greatest
strength a month ago.
Reading was the overshadowing
feature, that stock rising over five
points above its previous high record
of 1910. Dealings in this stock were
in tremendous volume aggregating
over 100000 shares for the five full
days of the week. Other coal stocks
participated to a limited degree. I'm
questionably a factor was the virtual
settlement of the dispute with the an
thracite coal miners, official details of
which will be forthcoming next week.
Another encouraging influence was
the progress towards an amicab1e
conclusion reported in the controversy
between the Eastern railway mana
gers and their engineers.
The financial community was not
disposed to pay much attention to
politics and protested to see general
betterment in industrial and CONNER
cia1 conditions, albeit crop prospects
were in some doubt. There was
relaxation in money for call
