BAT NELSON STILL HAS
 CHAMPIONSHIP BUG
Declares He Can Lick Willie Ritchie Over the Marathon Route-Would
 Fight Him at Any Weight.

Chicago, March 15.-Battling Nel- son simply cannot stop the champion ship bug from buZzing around his battlescarred head The Durable Dane has been floating all around the country fol the last few months fight ing on an average of three times a week and disposing of his op onents in more or less satisfactory manner.
 In letter to a friend in this city Bat tells Of scrap he had in a Penn sylVania town recently in which his opponent. failing to make any impress sion with his fists, used his teeth on \elson's left arm. He wasn't a scranper.' says the Dane in his let ter. He was a dog. He wasn't even a Sood dog, If he had been he would have taken a piece out of my arm He only ripped it open bit
 Drifting around to his chances of resaining the title, the mayor of Hegewich made the following remark about the present incumbent of the championships, Willie Rtchie:
 "I saw Willie Ritchie for the first time in Denver last week. says the Heges'Wich warrior If there is one one earth l can whip over a distance it is Ritchie. frankly admit that would expect Ritchie to outpoint me for the first ten or fifteen rounds. But would wear him down. My stamina is still unimpaired, and l am stronger than ever l certainly have proper claim for a battle with Ritchie Wol- gast always refused me return match, despite the fact that l had made rule to give all my defeated opponents another chance at their laurels.
 Now Ritchie is refusing Wolgast a return match, using me as an example of a fighter who was refused a sec ond battle by Ad. So if Ritchie is us ing me as an excuse. he can even up by giving me another chance at the title. He can write out the articles and dictate all terms. I'll sign any agreement Ritchie demands, no matter how hard the terms. He can make the weight l33 at the rinsside 1S5 or him.

DOGS CRIES HAUNT ORPHAN
Cause Girl to Confess Starting $, ,ooo Fire in Jersey-Wanted to See
 Some Excitement.

New Brunswick. N. J.--The death cries of dog in barn she had fired has led Julia Schlosser. a fifteen-year- old orphan. to confess that she started the fire which destroyed all of the farm buildings of Mrs. Anna Schoop's estate at Monmouth Junction at a loss of $5,0O0.
 ''l cant keep the noise of that poor dog out of my ears." she repeatedly told Mrs. Schoops, who had recently adopted the girl "I am tired of hear ing you say that" the foster mother said. for you talk as though you had a guilty conscience and sent the poor dog to his death" In a torrent of re- morse the girl then confessed. accord ing to the authorities. who have re- moved her to the state home for girls, where she had formerly been com mitted as an incorrigible.
 The only reason Julia gave for start. ing the fire was that she wanted to see some excitement and was tired of the monotony of farm life.

the advantage of every interest that this class of reporters continue in this field of labor.
 This end cannot be attained if their work is not remunerative. The players action in encroaching upon the work of these writers is exceed lngly harmful and a blight upon the reportorial branch of the sport.
 .The articles that appear with players names attached are seldom of their own creation and therefore an imposition on the public. Opposition to the fake journalism has already taken concrete form and unless some positive action is taken by the club owners they will be petitioned for re- lief"
 President Johnson said he hoped that similar action would be taken in the National league.

 fcrtunates Are Burned.

Shanghai,-Letters from the Catho. lie mission at Naming (kwangsi prov ince). details of the barbarous mass. acre of thirty nine lepers by order of the provincial authorities It appears that for some years past lepers have been living in wood few miles outside the city. and in view of their pitiable condition the Catholic fathers sought permission to build a lazar house at their own expense
 The authorities first gave a blank refusal. but subsequently pretended to consent
 Meanwhile they caused a pit to be dug in the parade ground and the bottom was filled with wood soaked in kerosene. Into this pit the iepers were suddenly driven at the point of bayonets and shot and burned in the presence of large crowds.
 Rewards were offered for the dis covery of more lepers, and another has since been shot
 The Tutuh (governor) has issued a proclamation accusing the lepers of outrages, for which the writers of the letters say there was no foundation. The authorities, the letters ada, are glOrying in the deed

SERVICE UNDER KAISER BRIEF
Von Jaeow's Appointment Makes Fwenty-Fifth Change in Twenty
 i've Years.

Berlin.-The appointment of Ambas- sador von Jagow of Rome to succeed iklderlen- -Wachter as minister of for elgn affairs has calien attention tC the comparatively brief service in of nee Of imperial ministers under Will lam H.. Von Jagow being the ninety nlth minister appointed by the pres eht emperor in his reign of less than twenty-five years.
 IL also has brought to the front the 1nd1sputable fact that Germany is not over rich in ministerial material. The list of names considered as compre- hendlng all the possible appointments was strlkingly short. and at that 1t in- cluded some men who have not thus lar given any evidence of possessing the qualities demanded of a minister of foreign affairs.
 The German press, with the excep. ton Of the conservative element. is inclined. as it has been for a long tune. to blame the scarcity of diplo- matic and ministerial timber to the fact that few but noblemen are given the opportunity to enter these posts and that the result is that the non- noDlemen have no chance either to learn statecraft or to demonstrate that they possess it. It is pointed out that of Germany's forty ambassadors and

 For instance. suppose man can hear his watch four feet from the ear If he loses his hearing to the extent that he can only hear the tick of his watch two feet from the ear he may not suspect il at all His hearing is good enough for ordinary purposes. He goes on without the slightest sus- ficion that he is losing his hearing He may have ringing ill the ear. or cracking and snappinG sounds in the ear. or feeling of pressure in the ear, but he is not aware that he is losing his hearing.
 It is a good thing to test your hear ing with watch. First hold the watch against your ear, then move it gradually away from the ear and see how far away from the watch you can actually hear it tick. Try it on the other side and see if both ears are alike. If you find that you are unable to hear the watch on both sides alike and at a distance of four feet from the ear, you may know that deafness has already begun. You

NEW ATTORNEY GENERAL IS FAMILIAR WITH DUTIES
JAMES (. M. REYNOLDS HAS BEEN IN DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
 SINCE l90!
Appointment may Mean that Efiici- ency of Department Will Be
 Maintained

Washington, March 15--In the ap- continent of attorney General James C. Nc Reynolds, President Wilson has made a selection wh .h officials oi the Department of justice term for tunate. It was thought that the ap pcntment of an absolutely new man would so disarrange matters that have been pending before the Depart ment that serious complications would ensue.
 Mir. Reynolds, however, practically has been an associate Assistant Uni ed States Attorney General since 1907 He has been engaged more or less in the dissolution proceedings brough against the American Tobacco Com pany and the Union Pacific ant Southern Pacific Railroads. Al though a Democrat. he accepted h. first appointment to th" Eepa"tmen of Justice from President Roosevc! at a salary of $500 year. Tina was in l901. Since tllat time he hat been given important t"sks to wor' out by Attorney General Wickersh man and during the American Toba eco dissolution proceedings his salary was fixed at Sl0.oO0 as a special as sistant Attorney General, He k familiar with all of the workings Of the Department and is fairly familiar with the various cases that are pend ing Especially is this true of the prosecutions under the sherman law.
 Clerks of the Department as well as Assistant Attorney General, are highly pleased with President Will sons selection It emans. so rumor has it, that the present high state Of efficiency will be maintained and incidently that many vii retain their positions It was expected that a cidently that many will retain their positions. It was expected that a new Attorney General would make clean sweep of the Department in order to satisfy the oesire of De mocratic politicians. who as early as two months ago. had their clerks searching through the roster of the Department to ascertain the number of jobs" that could be filled With re mocratic constituents. Now it is thought. however. that Mr. McRey- holds will not make many changes in the really important positions of the Department He has been so closely identified with the Department and has informed so many intimate as sociations that it is pointed out, he will not wish to fire any of his old friends
 Contrary to his predecessors in of flee, McReynolds is democratic in every way and mann2r. He is the typical office lawyer disdains silk hats and frock coats smokes a corn cob pipe in his office. very frequently putting his feet on his desk while IedulilS law booh UT StuuI lllS d

 But McReynolds is neither aristo- cratic or lazy and many incidents connected with his work in the De- partment of Justice. will testify to this fact
 Wickersham were rathe.' much inclin- ed to be aristocratic. Bonaparte is the grand nephew of Napoleon Be- naparte Wickefsham cCmes from an old New York family, who follow ed the legal profession for many years.
 Shortly after it became known of ficially that he was to be the next Chief of the Department of Justice, Mir. McReynolds called informally upon the retiring head of the Depart ment Amenit es of the occasion were hurriedly disposed with and a business discussion eGsued. MT. \ Aickersham who was very anxious to cave Washington. turned over a mass oi detailed correspondence and some # the pressing matters were hurried )ver in order that Mr McReynolds you'd know just what to do when he assumed active control of the office aeNt day. He walked '.p to the De- =nartment after d conference at the of President Wilson's Cabinet and left arm in arm with one of the As sistant United States Attorneys who has one oi the minor positions in the Department He had on blue busi- ness suit and a Slouch hat the direct opposite in dress to Attorney General WickerSham who rarey failed on Cabinet days to be attired in con- ventional dress.
 Mr. McReynolds will have as one of his chief leuIenants Louis D. Brandies, the working mans friend as many have styled hlm. Brandies as Solicitor General of the United States will have charge of all matters appealed to the Suprcma Court of the United States. The position is re- garded as one of the most important m the Department. As both men, McReynolds and RranGics have been pubicists of the most approved type, it can be expected that the public during the next four ye;rs will learn more of the workings Of the Depart ment ot Justice in prosecuting bad trusts than during the past four years. At present the departmo nt has forty four trust suits pending, most of which will be carried on appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States.

 If the catarrh settles in the pharyn- zeal space it may follow the mucous membrane through the eustachian tubes into the middle ear. If it does it will cause noises in the ear. and later on be sure to cause deafness.
