ROMANOFF---
INITIAL CARD HERE
BIG WRESTLERS WILL OPEN
LOCAL ATHLETIC SEASON
OCTOBER 81.

Marin Plestina and "Romy" Ro-
manof will provide the opening card
for local fans by the Caldwell Athletic
club, according to an announcement
by Joe Erwin, who has been making
endeavors to bring couple Of star
performers here for the initial per-
Torrance before local fans. Satisfac-
tory arrangements have been made
and the two big wrestlers have been
slated for October 81, FRIDAY even
ing.
Plestina is in Seattle at present and
Romanoff is at Pocatello. Wires re-
ceived Thursday indicate that each is
willing to enter the local arena on the
date specified by Mr., Erwin. These
men have met before at Boise and
Plestina won the bouts. But the toe
hold. which was responsible for the
falls has since been eliminated by
ruling OF the state boxing commission
and Romanoff has been anxious to
again meet the big, undefeated Pies
tina.
Arrangements have been made to
hold the shows in the old Equity asso-
citation building, just across the track
from the y. 5. L. passenger station.
Work of renovating that building will
begin Friday morning and full equip
ment will be installed to handle the
shows which will be given there. II
is estimated that the seating capacity
will be in the neighborhood of 600
which is expected to be sufficient to
meet all local demands.
Several good preliminaries for the
first bout have already been arranged
for and Mr.. Erwin is already decker
ing for men to fill that capacity at flu
ture exhibitions. Portland promoters
sent list of about 20 sterling athletes
who are willing to come here and Sal.
Lake has been asked to do likewise.

JAIL
HOLOSFORMER
CALDWELL man
Ham Kaufman, Formerly In
Newspaper Business Here,
Refuses Proffered Pardon By
Oregon Governor.
Especial to The Tribune.)
Rv Tohn Davis

PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. l4.-Firm
in his rectitude, steadfast in his de-
termination, courageous in his humil.
iation, Ham Kaufman lays in the
Multnomah county Jail, though he has
been offered a pardon by Governor
Olcott. The conditions of the pardon
arethat Kaufman leave the state OF
Oregon and abandon the newspaper
business.
Mr.. Kaufman says: ~ am virtually
ruined. My newspaper has suspended
publication, but my only hope Of maxi
ing living is in the newspaper bust
ness. l. am too old to learn a new
trade. If / must leave the state and
have no more to do with the only
trade | know, pwould become a public
charge on some other state. prefer
to stay in Jail. will not accept a
pardon under such conditions"
Committed June 7th.
Mr.. Kaufman was committed to
the Multnomah county Jail June 9TH.
He was sentenced to six months i'm
prisonment and fined $4,000. The
charge against him was publication of
obscene matter in his newspaper, the
Columbia Herald. He had no money
and was forced to serve time in lieu
of the fine, his total sentence thus
hunning UP to 400 days.
A reputable physician has informed
Governor Olcott that it is homicide to
keep the old man longer in prison.
Kaufman is now past II years of age.
He is in frail physical condition and
is growing weaker under confinement.
Mr.. Kaufman lived in Caldwell for
a number of years. He worked at the
printers trade and in other lines; was
member of the Caldwell band; and
was generally respected and esteemed.
1t would seem that the terms of the
pardon are unnecessarily harsh in view
of lifetime of usefulness. The many
friends of Mr.. Kaufman hope that h,
may soon regain his freedom withou.
losing his self-respect.

CITY PROGRAM
TO Be PUSHED
Contractors DiscIaIm Intention
To Postpone Operations
Until Spring.

That the Warren Construction COM
pany has no other purpose than the
prosecution of paving operations and
as rapid conclusion of their portion
of the city Improvement program is
the assertion OF A. o. Bray, Who has
charge of the work and equipment
here.
I'VE went to work week ago Tues
day morning grading Kimball avenue, >
stated Mr.. Bray, while it was still
actually dangerous to use horses on
the fills that had recently been made
covering the pipes for !city water
mains. This street is logically the
first point where we should have be-
gun operations. In actually it was the
last we were able to get onto.
''Hot stuff will be running this
week." continued Mr.. Bray. 1--WE have
enormous quantities of material ready
to go onto the streets just as soon as
We can get under way. Two blocks on
the south side of town will be the first
to be paved in order to facilitate travel
which requires an early completion of
that section of the work. Immediate
ly afterward we will start on Kimball
avenue north.
Asked how long it would take to
conclude paving operations, Mr.. Bray
asserted that it would be impossible to
tell at this time because of the uncer-
tainty of the weather. Not more than
six weeks can be safely devoted to the
work unless December should prove
an unusually mild month.
Work of installing drain pipes on
North Kimball began early in the
week and has been rapidly pushed.
On South Kimball and the boulevard,
a samll section of the street was al
ready rolled late last week and was
ready for the paving materials which
are now being poured onto those
streets.

VETERAN OF CIVIL
WAR DIED TUESDAY
M. L. MARCH, ACTIVE d. A. R.
MEMBER. SUccUMBS TO
PARALYAIC STROKE.

Word was received here Tuesday of
the death in Kansas of M. L. March
who has been visiting friends in that
section Tor short time after having
attended last summers G. A. r. en-
campment at Columbus, Ohio. Mr..
March left Caldwell about a month ago
accompanied by his wife. 1t was after
attending the national encampment
and while visiting relatives in Kansas
that he was suddely stricken with
paralytic stroke.
Details of the death are not at hand
but it is presumed that the attack
must have been unheralded and sud
den. Mr.. March had enjoyed the best
OF health until the time of his depart
ure for the east.
lie was the youngest and generally
regarded as the most active of the
members of the local C. A. r. post.
head OF the chapter, preferring to hold
the position of adjutant which he
handled capably for years.
Mr.. and Mrs. March came to this
section about IL years ago, having
homesteaded some property in the
Black Canyon district. After proving
up on that land. they came to Cald-
well and have made this city their
home ever since.
Mr.. March saw service with an
Ohio regiment during the Cival war.
He was an unusually reticent man but
occasionally could be prevailed upon to
relate some of his war experiences
which included narrow escapes from
being taken prisoner and other Incl
dents of his service that were filled
with dramatic episodes. He was only
II years of age at the time ne entered
the army and was the youngest of the
