LANDED BLOW IN BREAKAWAY Winner Now Ready to Fight Hugo Kelly for Middleweight Cham pionship of the World. Peoria, 111, Nov. 15.? It required but five minutes and 10 seconds of fight ing last evening before the Peoria Ath letic club in order to demonstrate Billy Papke's superiority over Tony Caponi. The decisive blow was . t right uppercut to the jaw, deliverer! while breaking away from a clinch n. the second round. It was a desperate battle while i' lasted, every second bringing ' fortn desperate milling. In the first round no damaging blows were landed, al though both men were aggressive to the extreme. The second session began with a rush, the men coming together with terrific jabs to the stomach. Papke rushed the Italian about the ring, and missed several uppercuts that, had any one landed, would have terminated the battle. In Art of Breaking. It was in a neutral corner that the contest came to a termination. Wi.h his head practically resting on Ca poni's shoulder, Papke had; forced the man almost to the ropes. They were in the act of breaking, when Papke drove up a tfirific right which landed fairly on the jaw. Caponi fell like a log, but seemed to be possessed of his senses sufficiently to attempt to arise Then he fell forward completely un conscious. Papke came out of the battle with out a scratch, and announced his do termination to fight Hugo Kelly. Papke ; and Caponi late? last winter fought two battles, one to 10 rounds and the other 15, both ending m draws.

Lieutenant Shackelton's preparations for a motor trip to the south pole have been completed, says a London special cable dispatch to the New York Sun. He will go under the auspices of the British antarctic expedition. The mo tor is made of specially prepared steel which is supposed to be able to resist exposure. It has two sets of wheels, one of the ordinary pattern and the other of wood. The front pair is of wood and is to be used to travel over snow on woocten runners shaped like skees. The driving .wheels are fitted with steel blocks, into which steel spikes can be inserted w heu stretches of ice and free snow are encountered. A box placed on the side of the car has a pipe which is -warmed from exhaust gases to melt snow for cooking and drinking. Foot warmers are heated in the same way. The car will run only about twenty five miles a day, but will carry enough petrol for S00 miles. Dogs will not be necessary, and the elimination of car ryiug provender for them - will - give plenty of room for storage. The motor has two seats and is only protected by a gabardine and a wind screen against the temperature. The greatest Interest is felt In the expedition. KEENE'S TIGHT MONEY TALE Shows How One Might Borrow $10 and Not Be Any Better Off. James It.

"Money is pretty tight," explained the banker, "and I shall have to charge you $2.50 now for the use of the $10 for a month." The darky consented, signed the pa pers and half an hour later was found by a friend standing In the road scratching his wool with one hand and looking ruefully at the $7.50 in the other. "Wat's de matter, Sam?"' asked his friend. "Oh, dere ain't nothin' de matter, 'cept I, knows I's right. Dat bank man he done charge me $2.50 for $10 for a month. I's right, suh, fo' If I had a ast fo de $10 fo' foab months I wouldn't a got nothin." POLICE COURT IN COLLEGE.

EIGHT INDIAN RESERVATIONS Yakima Tract Will Cost Settlers $30 Per Acre All Others to Go Un der Homestead Act. Thirty-five thousand homesteads, ranging from 40 to 160 acres each, or a total of 4,010,000 acres of timber, grazing, mineral, agricultural, irrigat ed end arid lands In eastern Wash ington, northern Idaho, western Mon tana and South Dakota, will be opened to settlement during the next twelve mouths, and with their occupation the vivid, adventurous, heroic days of the western frontier will pass into history, never again to have their counterpart upon this continent, says the Brooklyn Eagle. This will mean farms and or chards, sawmills, hundreds of miles of new railroads and thriving communi ties. It will mark the most important period of development since the first railroad pushed its steel rails into the northwest. These lands are in eight Indian res ervations, their location and acreage being as follows: Colvllle reserve, east ern Washington, 1,000,000 acres; Yaki ma reserve, central Washington, 1,145,- 000 acres; Coeur d'Aleue reserve. northern Idaho, 310,000 acres; Lemhi reserve, central eastern Idaho, 500,000 acres; Iilackfoot reserve, southern Ida ho, 500,000 acres; Flathead reserve, western Montana, 1,000,000 acres; Rosebud and Lower Brule, South Da kota, 891,500 acres. The tracts will be awarded by the lottery system, which has been used twice by the government and found to work satisfactorily, from the fact that It eliminates all controversy and pre eludes contests, while those who fail to draw, homesteads know they have had a fair chance. Probably the most important tract to be opened is in the Yakima reserva tion. The government is constructing an irrigation project to cover 100,000 acres of land. This will be divided In to forty acre plots, and the settlers will have to pay the government in ten yearly installments the amount of money it put into the irrigation plant This will make the land cost the set tiers about $30 an acre, but the gov ernment experts say it will be worth three times that amount for intensive farming purposes. It will be used chiefly for sugar beets and alfalfa cul ture. The timber land on the Yakima reservatipn will be sold under the sealed bids. All other land except tnin eral wilj he given away under the homestead act. ., The allotments and schedule of re served lands have been approved, and the land commissioner is ready to open the reservation Just as 60on as the reclamation project is completed. The opening is being held back on account of the irrigation plant, but the govern ment officials expect to place the land at the disposal of settlers in time for cultivation of crops next Tear. Surveyors at Work. GoverCnient surveyors are now at work In the Colvllle reservation, north of Spokane. They are dividing the 1.000.000 acres into tracts ranging from 40 to 150 acres each and laying out several government town sites. Part of the reservation will be under irriga tion. The irrigated farms will be full homestead size, of 150 acres. All the land will be classified and appraised as irrigable, grazing, timber, mineral or arid. It will require fully a year for the government to have the land In this reservation ready for settlement. In the Coeur d'Aleue reservation, be ginning seventeen miles east of Spo kane, laud can be taken under the homestead or mineral laws. Work Is progressing so rapidly on the Lemhi reservation as to Justify. the land offlce la announcing that the land probably will be opened to settlement this fall. The Indians on this reservation have been removed, to Fort Hall, and the Improvements of the land only remain to be appraised. Surveyors are also at work on the Blackfoot reservation set ting aside allotments for the Indians. Afterward they will survey the sur plus. 500,000 acres for homestead pur poses, also setting aside several gov ernment town sites. Seventy-five per cent of the Indians In the Flathead reserve have received their allotments, and appraisers will bo appointed by the Indian commis sioner In a short time to fix the value of the remaining 1,000,000 acres of land. The 'Indian bureau announces it will require at least nine months to complete the allotment of the ItosebuA land to Indian children, but as soon as the 'work Is completed the surplus lands can be opened ' to settlement. Several town sites are yet, to be locat ed by the government. . ... The first reservation to be opened win be the Lower Brale. The land has been appraised and the regulations Issued for ltscUsposal.

Flights of steps 'lead down Into the water from the interminable platform along which "the, bathhouses are situ ated. The water Is quite shallow at first, and you find a rare enjoyment for a time in wriggling your toes about in the salt that forms the bottom In place of accustomed sand. You are obliged to wade out some distance be fore you experience the peculiar buoy ancy of the lake. First you feel your feet trying to swim out from under you. You find It more and more diffi cult to walk. You begin to float In spite of yourself. Then you ' realize you are nonsinkable. ..You cant sink if you want to. Throw yourself on your back or sit down or try to swim, and you bob about like a rocking chair in a freshet. You feel as though you had been turned to cork. You can't help looking at the phenomenon subjective ly. You don't see that there is any thing peculiar about the water. It looks and feels like any other bathing water until you get some of It in your eyes or In your mouth. Then you wish you hadn't come. Ocean water Is sweet in comparison. " In fact, the chemists tell us It is eight times less salty. You can't drown In the lake by sink ing, but you can be suffocated to death, which is just about as uncom fortable and undesirable. We found signs everywhere warning us against being too talkative or too frolicsome In the water. When we came out we brought with us large deposits of salt on our skin. As the water evaporated we found our selves covered with white crystals. Only a strong shower bath of fresh water or a good clothes brush can put you -Into fit condition to dress. Travel Magazine.
