SMOKE BUT NO FIRE.
Fire Department on Futile Run on
Thursday.

Much smoke but no blaze was what
the firemen that answered the alarm
turned in from box 50 late Thursday
afternoon found on arrival at the
scene. The smoke was pouring from
a small room in the celi;ir under the
tailor shop of Nicholas Margiotta at
No. 81 Morris street and used as a
storage room by the owner of the
building, William Enslee. A back
draft caused smoke from a stove to
fill the cellar.

Why We Can Sea Smoke.

Smoke is not composed of gases
only, but of solid or perhaps partly
liquid particles, which are mixed with
the gases and carried along by them.
1t is these particles of matter that are
visible to the eye, and not the gases
themselves.-St. Nicholas

SHALL RANGE
 CALVES BE WALLED

The practice of weaning range calves early and vealing them is a subject of grave interest at this time when there is marked de- crease in the production of beef in the United States. It is quite true that the majority of cattlemen in this state are not guilty of this system of range management, still it is used to some extent and should be discouraged, especially when heifers are sacrificed for veal, says Prof. F. w. Wilson, Animal Husbandry of the Arizona Agricultural Experiment Station.
 Often it is great temptation for stockmen to take advantage of high prices for veal, little realizing his future loss, especially if he is building up his herd by use of high grade bulls. The stockman frequently retires behind the argu- ment that he increases his calf crop the following year by wean- ing his calves early, thereby per hitting the COWS to recuperate during the summer rainy season when the grass on the range is usually plentiful, also cutting down the total number of animals grazing on his range.
 Many range men cash in on their old COWS, with calves at foot the COWS going for canners and bringing what is offered, while the calves bring a good price. For long hauls, where freight rates are high, economy is secured by this system, for the car is entirely filled with the COWS and calves.
 It is sometimes the case that the calf crop is increased from an average of 50 or So ger cent to

 Hogs met reverses the latter half of last week, but with some signs of returning strength Satur- day, receipts are running almost equal to last year, but weights average 12 per cent lighter this year. Sales are steady to 5 higher today, top S.6o, bulk S.3o to S.55. Packers are in need of material, but they use every device possi- ble to keep prices down, including the heroic method of staying out of the market. Without genuine indifference, however, the market cannot be kept down, and re. turn to better prices is in the forecast.
 Sheep and lambs have gotten away from buyers, and advances of I5 to 40 cents have been made since last Thursday. Lambs sold freely at S.25 today, ewes at Goo to 6.2o, and a big consignment of Texas muttons, sold quickly at GAO. Texas goats 4.5o. Texas fed lambs, a new offering on the sheep house bill of fare this year, sold at 7.S5 Friday. Receipts are 5000 today, and will be fairly liberal later this week, circum. stances that had no effect in pre-. venting a strong to 10 higher market today.

Kansas City Market Letter

Kansas City Stock Yards, March 30, 1914. Cattle receipts here last week originated over wide
 spread territory, Montana, Idaho,
 Utah and Arizona contributing, besides delegations from inter- mediate states, and nearby terri tory. But with all this drag net ting of the supply horizon, total receipts at Kansas City fell of more than 5000 head, from same week last year about 25 per cent. Prices on steers declined 10 to Is cents, and stockers and feeders lost as much, but choice light steers and heifers sold stronger, and COWS held steady. The beei market is sick, according to pack. CTS and reports from better sup. piled markets indicate a most un. satisfactory state of trade, Chicago denominating their cattle trade as suffering from "semi-paralysis. " Supplies today are fairly liberal at all points, 1000 head arriving here. Prices on choice light steers and good heifers are steady, but most of the cattle are around 10 lower, some sales IS off. Nc prime natives are coming, good tc choice steers selling at &, 50 to 8.S5f, bulk of steers 7.75 to 8. 50, hay and pulp fed Western steers 7.6o to $40; meal and cake fed quarantine cattle 100 to S.oo, in. cluding six cars of Io4o pound steers today at 7.6o from North Texas.

COURT STOPS MARSANS FROM
 JOINING FEDS

St. Paul. June 23-Organized base ball won another victory last night, when Federal Judge W. H. San.born granted a temporary injunction re- straining Armando Marsans, former Cuban outhelder of the Cincinnati Ma tionals. from playing with the St. Louis club of the Federal League or any other ball club except Cincinnati until the alleged breach of contract he Is charged with has been tried in the United States District Court in St. Louis.
 While the action Is pending Judge Sarborn ordered the Cincinnati ECx- hBoltion Company, owner of the club, to give a bond of SIS 1000 to indemnify Marsa.nS for any possible loss he might sustain as a result Of the injunction.
 Marsans has been a member of the Cinc4nnad team three years, the pres ent making the fourth year. Ills salary was $4,OOo. He objected to the ten- day clause in his contract and gave ten days notice to the management early in June hoping, so he claimed. that the obToxLous ten-day clause would be taken out of his contract.
 After ten days 1darsans was sus- pended, without pay, for alleged dis loyalty to the team and for other req sons. During his suspension he open SQ n0SON1dCAOnS lW1tA Sn0 Ct. 1OuAO CluD of the Federal League. His suspen- sion suddenly ended. but, despite that fact, the Cuban ''jumped'' to the St. Louis club of the new league, claiming that his contract with Cincinnati was illegal on account of the ten-day clause.
 In order to retain his services or prevent him from playing in the rival league. the Cincinnati Exhibition Com pany sought a temporary Injunction. The case will now fbe tried on it's mer- it's in the United States District Court Tn the meantime Marsans can go back to the Cincinnati club or not play ball.

CITY
 LIGHT WEIGHT
 IS GOOD BOY

sSJohnny Tillman, the Minneapolis lightweight, is a most promising boy in his class and if he keeps on innprov- ing at the rate he has been going since he appeared against Len Eowlands in
 Milwaukee six months ago he will de- velop into another Frank Erne. Johnny is tall for a lightweight, as tall as
 Rtchie, and has an extraordinarily long reach. He has a lot to learn yet
 in boxing way, but he is fast to pick up the finer points of the game, and
 that is what makes him look so prom ising at the present time. T1l1man has had very few boys of class to go against as yet, his most notable oppon-
 ent being Pal Brown, the Hibbing lightweight, whom he has met twice in ten round bouts. In the contest at Hudson, Wis, Monday night, the Minneapolis lad put up a. clever bat
 tie against his more experienced oppon- ent and if there was a, shade to be
 given, the shade was with TiIlman.
 as he jabbed at long range many times
 and reached home with his long left,
 but in aggressive work Brown was
 there and toward the end he landed
 some Severe walIops on Johnny's body and head Pal did not seem to be the
 Brown of old. He seemed to lack
 the steam to his punches that has
 been hts strong forte heretofore and
 in the c1inches he did not have much
 on the Monnea polls boy when it came K. T improve as he went along and in the
 tenth he did his best work; showing conc1usive1y that the long distance
 game is his strongest point. That is
 where he made his reputation in Aus trana~ The two Minnesota boys are
 so evenly matched that it will require a. twenty round battle to settle the question of supremacy between them.
 Arthur Pelkey, the French-Cana-
 dian heavyweight, whom Tommy
 Burns brought out a white hope over a year ago. has been put out of the running completely. After Pel--
 keys unfortunate battle with Luther
 McCarty in the North Western Prov ince of Canada he was heralded as the white champion of the world. However, he ran against a snag on the
 Pacific coast when he met Gunboat Smith. But he was not discouraged and went to Australia with Tommy to regain his lost 1aurels. Last week
 Pelkey met Sam McVey, the coIored
 heavyw eight of California, and later of France, in 8 twenty round battle
 at Melbourne, but the finish came in
 the fourth round when PeIkey was knocked out Mcvey is no spring
 chicken at the, game himself, and the
 fact that he beat Pefkey so decisive ly and in such short time removes the latter as a white hope.

REM ARKABLE TENNIS PLAY
 OF MURRAY

Tennis fans are still talking about the work of R. Lindley Murray. the young Californian
 Murrays rise in the world of tennis has been remarkable, says "Cross Court the tennis expert of the New York Evening Mail. Last year he was not even ranked; four weeks ago there weren't a. dozen tennis players of east ern reputation who knew his name. Just three weeks ago Saturday, up at Sleepy Hollow, he defeated Fred Alex ander, Karl Behr and Merrill Hall in one afternoon. The week before last he won the New England tournament at Hartford. In the Metropolitan last week he went through Capt Dionne of the West Side club. Dean Mathey, Watson M. Wash1burn, George M. Church, and c1inched his. hold on fame and reputation by beating Fred Alexander in the final round.
 That means actually that he belongs in the first 10 ranking players of America, and it's from those 10 that the Davis cup team will be chosen
 The marvellous part of his tennis Biography is that he has been play ing only four years. He took 1t up when he entered Stanford university in 1910, the youngest freshman that ever matrfculated. Here goes one runaor to smash with a. bang. He was 16 years of age then. so that makes him now just 20 and not IT, as the whisper spread through the gallery Saturday afternoon
 His father is as ardent a. tennis
 man as ever lived. He came all the way down from northern New HaLnp- shire for Saturdays match. and it was from him that Murray, Jr., got the fever. One of the family mytlas-this is very confidentia1-is that Roberts s father won the New England tennis championsEip way, way back. The family has never been able to get much exact Information from it's head on this point, and as MT Murray, ST., has been professor of Greek at Stan ford for 25 years, the record is one of those which must stand on faith

BOXING NOTES

We have new bantamweight champion-Kid Williams of Baltimore and must now class Johnny Coulon of Chicago as ex-champion. There are many followers of boxing who will be sorry to see the little Chicago lad going about without his title, not be- cause Johnny was a fine chap, great fighter in his day and a. little gentle man. When Johnny lost his pal-hts father-he seemed to forget that he was the same boy afterwards and his long illness left him but a shell of his former self. He thought he could build up again and be strong and agile, but he found. out that he could not. Johnny met Williams in a scheduled this week and was put out in the third round by the Baltimore fighter Cou- lon never had a look-in and he seemed to know that he was not able to cope with his husky young rival Williams is a great little lighter and should have no trouble winning the worlds title, by defeating the European champion Charles Ledoux of France; in fact Williams can well lay claim now to the world s- title for he has a victory to his credit over Ledoux.
 The habit of clinching and covering up, which American boxers have got ten into the past few years, is not help ing the boxing game any. And pro- motors all over the country are be- ginning to make a kick against this manner of fighting. The spectators of boxing match do not like the idea of watching two men go through six or eight rounds and do nothing but clinch. Tn Philadelphia a few nights ago two boys did so much cIinching that the referee, becoming disgusted, fired them out of the ring and called it mo con test" The Queensbury Athletic club club of Milwaukee has instructed Ref cree Harry Stout to act in a similar manner in the future when the boxers insist upon c1inching continually and covering up. If the club promoters about the country would follow in the same line 1t would result in raising the standard of boxing.
