standing room was at premium be-
fore the services began. Rev Ward
of the Methodist church gave short
talk on the Red Cross, its origin and
mission, and Rev. Bolton OF the
Christian church gave temperance
lecture that was well worth hearing.
The offering was applied to the Red
Cross fund.

Congressman Medley Here

Congressman Geo. A. NeeIey was
Liberal visitor this week. He was
down here on business and attended
the school land sale at Beaver while
here. This was our first meeting
with Mr. Medley, and candor compels
US to say that we believe the people
Of Kansas made a mastake In not
sending him to the senate. However,
we don't believe he is dead one in
politics even yet, as that famous
handshake is still rs hearty as it was
reputed TO be before the election.
You can't keep a good man down,
and some day the good old state OF
Kansas will realize the error of her
ways and vote for him accordingly.

Mitchell Could Not Get Decision
Over Corbett by Inviting
Foul.
By WALTER C. KELLY.

CLEVELAND, July 22-Back In 1894.
when Jim Corbett, of San Francisco.
and Charley Mitchell, Of England,
fought at Jacksonville. Fla, for the
championship of the world. the referee,
Honest John Kelly. found himself con-
fronted with just such an incident as
happened in the Carpentier-Gunboat
Smith battle in London on Thursday
night, but, unlike Referee CORR, Honest
John did not become ratified. nor did he
permit himself to be bluffed by the
seconds on either side. AS a result
claim and counter-claim of foul were
overruled and the better man was per
mitted to win on his mSrits.
Mitchell, who knew in his heart that
he was no match for Corbett. had
planned to win on a foul. His scheme
was to taunt the sensitive Californian
with nasty remarks, and vile accusa-
tions during the fight, hoping to eXas-
perate COrbett and cause him to COM
nit foul And with an inexperienced
referee. Mitchelrs plan might have sue
ceeded.
In the second round Mitchell Kissed
vile epithets into Corbetts ear in the
cIinches, and Corbett retaliated by
smuggling WlcKedly. me EngllSn cnam-
pion went to his knees in a miX-up,
and while in that position he grinned at
Corbett and hurled a volley of most In
sultinE invective at him. Corbett be-
came all the more enraged. and dashlnG
I'm, he swung viciously at Mitchell
head. 1t had been Charley"s intention
to hold his head still and take the
blow. but seeing the terrific speed with
which the wallop had been launched,
he ducked quickly, letting the blow
barely Craze the top OF his head
There we're cries of foul from Mitch
ellis corner, and his principal seconds,
Tom Allen and Jim Hall, crawled Into
the ring, and surrounding Referee Kelly
demanded that he declared Mitchell the
winner on a foul. Jack Dempsey (since
