Colored JIan Knocked Out.
Kansas City, July 9. Bob Thompson,
a colored light weight of Salt Lake,
and Jim Tompkins, also colored, of
Galveston. Tex., fought nine bloody
rounds near this city tonight for a
purse of $300. Tompkins was the su
perior in reach and height but lacked
in science, and although showing re
markable gameness, was counted out
in the ninth round. Oscar Gardner, the
Omaha Kid, was referee.
In the first round Thompson landed
repeatedly with his left on Tompkins'
jaw. In the succeeding rounds Bob
succeeded in landing blows right and
left, the Galveston man being com
pelled to clinch to avoid punishment.
In the fifth round Tompkins was
groggy, and in clinching fell to the
floor, blood spurting from his nose. In
the ninth Thompson had no compas
sion and repeatedly sent his antagonist
to the floor. Thompkins finally was
counted out as be made an unsuccess
ful effort to stagger to his feet. His
fate was a mass of bruises.

arranged. The trophy for the winners
of the joint event is not to exceed fifty

Oxford and Tale meet last year.
Won't Come to Sco Tale.
London, July 9. A reply was sent to
day by Oxford and Cambridge to tihe
intercollegiate athletic association of
America. The reply is to the effect
that it would not be desirable for their
olubs to abandon their original policy,
which -was that Oxford and Cambridge
would meet Tale and Harvard Mils ve-ir
either in America or England. Since,
however, this is rendered impossible
owing to the action of Harvard, neither
club was inclined to take further steps
this year, in regard to a meeting be
tween a combination team of the Eng
lish universities and a similar team of
the American universities.

which prevailed. Dr. A. G. Lane of
Chicago, vice-president, presided and
Professor Nicholas Murray Butler, pre
sident of the association, gave his an
nual address, "What Knowledge is of
Most Worth."
After a solo by Mrs. Jay Robinson of
Denver, Dr. TV. N. Hailman, superin
tendent of the Indian schools, Wash
ington, D. C, spoke on "The Next Step
in the Education of Indians." He said
education was naturally the first step
in the civilization of the Indian. This
could only be given to the younger per
sons and to them only after the break
ing up the tribal relations. The allot
ment of lands in severalty is too radi
cal a change for older Indians; they
fail In the new life and thus conceive
histility for the institutions of civi
lization which make effective work up
on the young very difficult. The In
dians are in many instances Immedia
tely surrounded by the.worst types of
whites. The states have no interest in
the Indian within their borders. Per
manent good can only come when the
states claim from the general govern
ment the right to control and protect
their Indian residents and carry out
the treaty stipulations by which their
consent to become citizens is pur
chased. s

PLACE TO EXPLODE SUELLS.
It is a Closed Chamber and all Pieces can
be Preserved and Counted.
Washington, July 9. The army ord
nance officers are greatly interested in
a curious chamber which has been con
structed at Sandy Hook, known as the
explosion chamber. As the name im
plies, it is used in conection with the
tests of high explosives or when it is
desired to collect the fragments of bars
ted shells. In connection with the art
of war it is desirable to know into how
many pieces the shell will explode if
loaded with different quantities of pow
der. It is a nice question in metallurgy
to construct a shell of material which
is neither too weak nor too strong.
It is therefore useful to explode shells
in a compartment where all the frag
ments may be easily found, in order to
determine whether a shell Is of the ex
act quality. The construction of this
chamber called for some ingenious
work, for the compartment must be
thoroughly braced and absolutely se
cure. A zigzag passageway affords en
trance to the chamber, which is embed
ded In the sand. The chamber Is con
structed of sheets of nrild steel, built
up of double plates, each one inch
thick.
HE STOLE FROM THE VATICAN.
Scholar Abuses the Privilege which the
Pope had Accorded.
Rome, July 9. The Vatican library
whose renown is world wide, was rob
bed a short time ago. The Incident
was one which concerned all scholars
and lovers of learning and admirers of
the beautiful works which have escap
ed the ravages of time and come down
to our days. The man accused of the
theft of precious and illuminated manu
scripts of inestimable value, because
such as these are unique, was a certain
Giovanni Rapisardi, who had been ad
mitted during several years to study
at the Vatican library, and who during
that time had published some workes,
the materials of which he gathered here
A few days ago this scholar and stud
ent appeared before the ninth section
of the tribunal of Rome to answer the
charge of theft. The case was regard
ed as of very great Importance and was
watched with eager curiosity. Giovan
ni Raparsardi is a son of the late Sal-
in this city. ROYAL is j

from Faterno, Sicily, a town of very
respectable antiquity, having been bo

they laid seige to Syracuse, 415 years
befre Christ The oharge formulated
against Rapisardi was that of robbery
of mlnatures. codices and manuscripta
of most precious value, to the detri
ment of the Vatican library. The -value
of these codices and of the minature
really marvelous In art and antiquity,
is. In the judgment of experts, more
than precious.
Rapisardi, profiting by the confidence
that the late Mrr. Carlnl, the prefect
of the Vatican archives and a Sicilian

GLASS MEN COMBINE
BIGGEST GErTING TOGETHER EYER
KN0WH IN THE TBADE.
Strong Competition has bad Glaus Down
About as Low as It Is Capable of Getting
Twelve Companies Woalda't Sell It
at the Price -Others DId-Now the
Twelve have About aU the Glass la the
Couutry Difficulties in the Way of In
creasing the Output at Present Make
Up of the Combine.
Anderson, Ind., July 9. The greatest
combination the window glass indus
try has ever known was consumated
last night.
For some time the price of glass has
been about as low as It was possible to
make it for, caused by very strong
competition. During the year just
closed twelve companies west of Pitts
burg nave refused to sell their product
and as a result their warehouses have
been filled. The remaining nineteen
plants west of Pittsburg have sold their
glass, and as a result the end of the
season found 3S0.000 boxes of glass In
warehouses. The twelve companies
that have been working on the quiet
had 360,000 of these and the half of the
remaining 20,000 boxes will be exhaust
ed In a couple of weeks and then the
combine will have the market in their
own hands.
The factories east of Pittsburg have
a big trade of their own. They only
have 200,000 boxes available and they
are held by the McKee, the Avermore,
the Jeanette. and one of the plants in
Pittsburg. They will not ship east and
will raise their prices to correspond
with the gas belt manufacturers. A
raise of 25 per cent on window glass
was made last night and after the 10.
000 boxes are disposed of the price will
go still higher.
According to the Workers union the
plants cannot open before September
1, and the fact that the workers will
demand the restoration of the 22fc per
cent cut of last year will make he other
manufacturers make this concession if
they start then. This will not be done.
Even should they accede on the raise
they would lose heavily and could not
get glass to market before the first of
October. B. this time the current de
mand will be filled and It Is thought
all of the pool sold. The combination
will be known as the Reynolds Selling
agency. Its headquarters were open
ed this morning at Muncie.
The factories that are in, all belong
to the Indiana Gas Belt. They are the
Anderson, EII Jones and Bower, of
Eaton; American of Gas City; Marlon
Window Glass company; Stewart-Es-tep
of Marion; the Alexandria; the Vic
tor of Anderson; Indiana, of Pendleton;

POOR COUNTY AND RARE DOCDMENTS
Many Valuable Papers In Old Maryland De
stroyed by Fire.
Baltimore, July D. The Sun says:
The committee to which is entrusted
the work of supervising the erection of
a court house in the new county seat
of Charles county seems to be excellent
ly constituted. It is composed of gen
tlemen of intelligence and public spirit
who will doubtless make the best use
of the limited sum of money at their
command. No part of this sum can be
spared for unnecessary ornament. The
building should be plain and substan
tial, and a'bove all else It 6hould afford
ample protection from fire to the pub
lic records. The neglect of this pre
caution -has In recent years caused the
distructlon of the records of several
of the old counties, many of them of
great historic value, the loss of which
can never be supplied. Fortunately,
before the Charles county court house
was burned, a year or two ago, the old
records of the county had been placed
in the land ofltce at Annapolis for safe
keeping, and some seventy-five volumes
of them are there now requiring re
binding or transcription, and there are
no funds with which to do the work.
The Sun has heretofore called atten
tion to the insecurity of the old will
books of the 6tate now in the office of
register of wills at Annapolis. These
are the most valuable repository of
family history in Maryland, and all the
old Maryland families are concerned
in their preservation. They contain all
wills made In Maryland for about a
century In cplonial times. That they
should be permitted to remain over
night in any apartment not absolutely
fire proof Is suprising. Charles is not
a rich county -and Its people are heav
ily taxed. They are, therefore, natur
ally averse to any debt which Is not
unavoidable, and for that reason the
court house will be a modest building.
But the country, with its resouces and
its proximity to Washington, is sure to
grow in both wealth and population,
and perhaps the court house building
committee will plan the structure with
a view to enlargement in the future
when the necessity for arises, as la
surely will.
WHAT MR. DAWES SAW.
tin Says Wichita In as irell Tlehared as Any
City He Ever .Saw.
The following from the Topeka Capi
tal concerns thev Islt of Attorney Gen
eral Dawes to Wichita.
"Attorney General Dawes addressed
a communication to Governor Morrill
yesterday afternoon In which he makes
a report of the result of his observa
tions and Investigation of the workings
of the prohibitory law on the occasion
of his recent visit to Wichita. Mr.
Dawes' report is as follows:
"Some days ago you requested mo
to visit the city of Wichita and as
certain. If possible, the true pituatlon
there with regard to the government of
sakl city. Upon receiving the request
I went to the city of Wichita and j
raiKea wun many cinzens o: mat piac.
I met a great many substantial busi
ness men and talked with them. I
also attended a meeting of citizens
at .the Y. M. C A. building. In ad
dition to this, one evening that I was
there, I started out alone and ira'versed
the business streets of said city for a
space of about three hours. An a re
sult of my inquiries and the research
made by me. I beg leae to report to
you what I bUeve to b the true con
dition of affairs at the city of Wichita.

Btly adrninHtcred All fines are being

Ail money coHected from the sa
loon Is being turned over to the city

"I wmild further say that with t
excentlon of the open violation of pr-
hibltory liquor law Wichita Is as wH
governed" and Is as peaceable and quiet
as tr a.erag city of its size. I
saw r vJdenc that the cHy was In
