DUNDEE MINGLES
WITH kILbANE
TONIGHT

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March
26.-Johnny Dundee, clever little
fighter though he is, today had
to be content with the short end
Of the betting for his fight to-
night with Featherweight Cham
pion Johnny Kilbane, of Cleve-
land. Both men today claimed
to be in the very best of condi-
ton and both issued the usual
statements claiming victory by a
wide margin. The battle is
scheduled to go six rounds and
experts today said it will go that
limit. Kilbane and Dundee al
ready have met twice. Dundee
is to get thirty per cent of the
gross receipts, while Kilbane is
working on guarantee. The
seat sale has been enormous.

The Federals are still talking
money in the baseball field and
organized baseball has put up
slathers of coin to keep stars
from doing kangaroo to the
outlaws. At the rate talk of dol
lars and cents has progressed in
the race for a place where base
hits and fielding once roamed
around, we may expect something
new in the run of baseball writ
ing this season. For instance
the stories Of game might read:
"The batteries in today's game
were valued at $4,000, the two
pitchers drawing $4,000 each
and the catchers $12, Grab

OF course, Murphy has been
ousted, but when Hank O'Day

Tinker is charitable. He is
only going to release six of his

Jimmy Callahan is watching
the work of his second team. He
probably couldn't stand to watch
the first any longer.
One remarkable feature of the
baseball war Is that those who

New Workers who died In 1918
left $1,000,000,00Q. So that is

Cigarets ruin more ball players
than bad arms do, says Cy Young,

weakening after 26 years of

UNCLE SAMS BEST POSSESSION
 IS TERRITORY OF ALASKA

THE matter of Alaska shows up pretty well
 compared with other nonconguous territory of the United
 State according to the report of the government hand book on this subject says the Juneau Empire The report covering the nnemonth period ending September 30 last contains very interesting figures.
 Within the period mentioned the United States shipped to Hawaii goods to the value of $648936 to the Philippines $756506 to Porto Rico $22 05942; to Alaska $40 During the period there shipped to the United from Haw goods valued at $39 8S6 from the Philippines $173S26S7 from Porto Rco $31 958 from Alaska $25 2S6,262.
 In the of Alaska the figures quoted are not exactly correct for the that at the time the records
 piled Aaskas gold and fish output for the year not complete AS matter of fact the entire product for 1914 in value amounts approprXmatey $30000000 half of which is in gold, and the remainder, principally fish,
 However using these figures a basis it is found that Hawaii sends products to the United States worth than twice the amount of goods received from the home government thereby having the best of the balance of trade that the Philippines offer break Porto Rico has about thirty per cent the best of the suaon while Alaska apparently occupies like position with Porto Rico
 But must be borne in mind that about half the value Aaskas exports is gold buon-unmnted money which finds it's way into channels of trade and helps increase the value of the circulating medium instead of becoming liability the commerce of the States would be the ordinary commercial product demanding balance of to be carried back to Alaska in liquidation Of there law to prevent the mned gold coming back Alaska for investment and of does back but the larger returns 1t passes south of 5420 Hence of all United States contiguous territory Alaska be ed the best customer

SCHEDULES OF NEW WAR TAX

 There is difference of opinion regarding individual bonds furnished by bonding companies whether these taxable against the company issuing them against the individuals in whose favor they issued Officials who give bonds amounting to 5000 and $5000 will feel the burden Naturally they would like to the bonding companies the bur den.-
 However special instructions being received from time by the different departments and in short time the stamp tax will be working smoothly that the people will scarcely realize 1t is in existence.

Weather Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending August 9, 1914.
The week was hot and generally
dry; the average daily excess of tom
perature being about three degrees,
and the rainfall was much below the
normal There were, however, many
local but generally light showers,
which afforded slight relief from the
severe drought and intense heat.
Corn in the northern part of the state
is holding it's own remarkably well
and gives promise of a large yield and
early maturity. In some fields corn
is beginning to dent. In the south
ern counties corn is steadily retro
grading and the crop is being cut two
to four million bushels a week. The
scarcity of water is becoming ser Gus.
The drought is also severe on pas
lures, potatoes, gardens and \ fruit,
and is preventing any fall blowing
being done. Threshing continues I'M
der favorable conditions and is we'll
advanced.
Following is summary showing
average condition of crops on August
first, as compared with the average
of past years on that date, except
fruit, which is compared with last
years crop as shown by reports Of
township assessors: Corn, 81 per
cent; pastures, "a; potatoes, 80; fax,
81; apples rs; plums, So; grapes,
81 per cent.
