WILD BILL SUCCUMBS TO THE
PROWESS OF FRANK CHILDS,
THE COLORED LAB
LOSER WAS EASILY OUTCLASSED
Only* One. Minute of Fighting; Had
Elapsed in the Fourth Round
When Hmtrahnii Went
to Sleep. ~v
CHICAGO, Feb. 3.—"Wild Bill" Hanra
han's aspirations to the heavyweight
championship were quickly- dispelled to
night by Frank Childs, the colored
heavyweight, who knocked out the New
Yorker after one minute of ncrbtlng: in
the fourth round of a six-round contest
at the America club. Hanrahan was out
classed from the start, although at the
commencement of the first round he
landed a wild swing that landed on
Childs' head. Chllds slipped from his
balance; but was up in a second and sent
Hanrahan to the floor with a stiff left
to the jaw. Hanrahan remained down
for the limit, but he had a shade the best
of it in the exchange that followed.
The second round was full of wild
swings, neither man doing any damage.
In the next round Childs began playing
for Hanrahan's stomach, and was more
suceessiul at this style of fighting. On
several occasions he landed on the New
Yorker's abdomen without a return. As
the round progressed Hanrahan became
wilder than ever in his delivery, and
Childs tried for a knockout. He missed
Hanrahan's jaw, and the latter fell into
a clinch. Childs was the stronger and
shook Hanrahan off with ease and reach
ed his stomach with a right punch that
made Hanrahan groan.
When they came together in the fourth
round Childs continued to play for the
stomach, easily avoiding Hanrahan's
wild swings. After about a minute of
lighting they got into a clinch, and on
the breakaway Childs shoved a straight
left into Hanrahan's stomach The blow
doubled Hanrahan up, and as his head
dropped forward the colored man brought
his right square on the .law. Hanrahan
fell fat on his back, and after being
counted out his seconds carried him to
his corner where they worked over him
for fully ten minutes.before he was able
to walk to his dressing room.
In a six-round bout Jimmy Handler, of
Newark, X. J., lost the decision to Jack
Beauscholte, of Chicago. Beauscholte
used a left-hand jab that he was able to
land on Handler's face whenever he
pleased, and before they had been fight
ing two minutes he had Handler's nose
bleeding. Handler tried in every round
to land^a right swing, but was invariably
stopped by Beauscholte's left before he
could do any damage. Handler had a
little the better of It in the clinches, but
was so far outclassed at long-distance
fighting that Beauscholte won with ease.
The men met at catchweights, and Beau
scholte had about ten pounds the best of
It,

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Stbup of Figs, manufactured by the
Califokkia Fio Steup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing- to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing 1 the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
%o overcome habitual constipation per-
Stnanently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fig Sybup

BEALL TALKS BASEBALL
FORMER MAGNATE PUTS OMAHA IN
A SIX-CLUB LEAGUE.
OMAHA, Feb. S.—A. B. Beall, of Sioux
City, has some opinions of the Western
league that will interest the fans, who
follow the doings of the Hiekey and the
Wfcitfield factions without being able to
reach a satisfactory conclusion how the
Western baseball war will terminate.
Mr. Beall ia the magnate who traded
his possessions in Minneapolis to Pack
ard, of Denver, for the franchise there
and got himself ousted from the West
ern league !n consequence. When in the
city on baseball business he said:
"What I am here for I can't tell with
out subjecting my interests to risk,"
said Mr. Beall. "I am watching and
waiting. Every move that either organ
ization makes I know about. I know
just where each stands.
"The Western league managers v.ill
not admit it just yet, perhaps, but they
are beaten in the respect that the pro
moters of the American association have
accomplished what they set out to do—
namely, to organize a strong circuit
with the best cities in the old Western
league, and to relegate Denver, Colorado
Sprii-gs and other Western cities to a
smaller organization.
"The situation has solved itself to a
point whero there is but one outcome.
Omaha will be in a six-flub league next
season, unless arrangements are made
to take in smaller towns like Sioux
City or Peoria. St. Paul and Minneap
olis have been given up by the West
ern magnates.
"They have the park at Milwaukee,
but it would be the height of nonsense
to put a club in Milwaukee with Den
vsr and Colorado Springs at the other
end. The managers all know it, and I
am told that Whitfield intends to aban
don the undertaking, notwithstanding
that he has paid $1,000 on a lease.
"Omaha fan? can make up their minds
to see a six-club league ball next sea
son. I hold the Denver franchish. The
courts will protect me from the action
of the league at Kansas City when the
members expelled me without warrant.
A restraining order will bring the West
ern magnates to time. They will find
they can't play ball in Denver till they
do the square thing by me.
"I have hopes that "my claim to own
ership of the Denver franchise will be
recognized, so that I won't be out of
ba=eball altogether."
TRAINING IS HARD WORK
FORMER LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION
TALKS ABOUT THE GAME.
"Kill" Lavigne, formerly lightweight
champion, in talking on training, said
' There are few people who know what
It is to be trained down below your nor
mal fighting weight. I was once, and it
was when 1 boxed- that draw with Frank
Krne. At that time 1- was heavier than
I am now. and it was harder for me to
do 133 pounds than it would be for me
to make 128 at present. I put up a de
posit of $500 that I would be at the
weight or forfeit, and, as it was my
hard-earned money, it worried me a lot
I told my brother that be ought to have
got Erne to consent to 133 pounds give
or take a couple of pounds, but Billy
was sure 1 could fight at i 33 handily, and
ho ridiculed the idea. Well, to make a
long story short, I trained hard, and just
a day or so before the fight I weighed
myself and I was hugging the 133 notch
and it frightened me. I said to myself
that I would have to take off a couple of
pounds or 1 would lose that $500. and I
reduced. The night of the fight came
and I was feeling mean. I had not eaten
scarcely anything for fear that 1 would
be too heavy, and 1 remembered that I
felt rotten when T started for the ring.
On the way down to the place where we
were to fight I said to Paddy Gorman
who trained me, that I guess I would
take a swallow of brandy to brace me
up and put some ginger in me. When I
told him how I felt he agreed that a little
brandy would brace me up. and I went in
and bought a glass. But it seemed to ,
dto me no good, and when T stripped for !
the fight 1 was feeling as bad as I d;d
when I left the training ground.
"When we came up for instruction I
said to myself. 'Now. I have got to lick
this fellow quickly, or he will put it on
me, for I am not right. 1 and wewent at
it. I fiddled away, and just when I
thought he was coming at me I let drive
a- th t.e next thin S I remember' I was hit
ting the floor. It was an awful shake
up, for in trying to save myself in going
down I only made matters worse and
hurt myself more than if I had tried to
keep from falling. I remember pulling
myself up. and when I got back to the
corner I was dazed, and drunk in the
bargain and I asked my brother where
Erne hit me, and Ire replied that 1 was
not hit and that I only slipped down
Do you know that drinking one glass of
brandy on my empty stomach made me
as drunk as though I had been out all
night on a time, and it was a couple of
rounds before I got my 'head? If Erne
had only realized in what a critical con
dition I was he would have beaten me
right there and then, but, luckily he
stayed away for several rounds, and n
the meantime I sobered up. The next day
some of the papers stated that I was
drunk, and I was, but not in the way
they meant it. No, sir; there is nothing
like going into the ring feeling good and
strong, and when one does he has a
great advantage over the fellow who
strips? drawn and fine and feoiing mean.
There is nothing like being in good! con
diition. for then your battle is half won "

beat them. I will go over to New York
one day nevt week, and expect to make
full arrangements to take the team on

Manning.* Partner Turned Down
Chance to Go to Detroit.
DETROIT, Feb. 3.—That the Detroit
people were in earnest to secure the very
best talent available in baseball is
shown by the fact that an agent in this
city offered Nichols, the well known
pitcher, ?5,000 a year on a two years' con
tract, and a bonus of $1,500 payable when
ho signed. Nichols was not at liberty to
accept this offer, as he had already com
mitted himself to go to Kanas City.
The New York club has offered Libe
Washburn, a left-handed pitcher,
formerly with Brown university, $400 per
month to play next season, but the offer
was refused. Other clubs are after
Washburn. and it is just possible an
otter will cows along that will entice him
to sign a contract.

Extradition Paper*.
TOIRONTO, Feb. B.—Police Magistrate
Logan, of Niagara Falls, has handed out
his decision in the case of The King
against Hermann. The latter, a Buffalo
man, managed athletic exhibitions at
Fort Erie, and he was charged with pro
moting a prize fight between Walcott and
Ferns there on Dec. 8.
The magistrate finds that a mere exhi
bition of skill in boxing or sparring,
where the contestants agree to box a
limited number of rounds is a friendly
con-test with gloves, seems to be lawful
and does not fall within the definition of
a prize fight.

MM.. WILSOfIf, WHILES WAITING FOR
BLANK CHECK FORMS, IS
GATHERED IX
LOAH OFFICE IS SWINDLED
Arrested Man Is Believed to Have
Worked Clever Scheme by; Di
verting; "jr. p. McajLahon's
Mail.
A young man whose name Is believed
to be Wilson, is under arrest charged
with having unlawfully obtained from the
St. Paul postoffice, and opened, mail mat
ter addressed to another person. The
complaint against Wilson is made by As
sistant District Attorney Fred Dickson
on information frcm Inspector Kimball,
of the postal service, and Supt. Hadlich,
of the delivery department of the post
office, and it appears that the prisoner
planned and executed an elaborate
scheme of fraud for the purpose of se
curing a loan of $35.
It is alleged that Wilson first called at
the Bradley street substation of the post
office and left an order an on* of the
printed forms provided for that purpose
directing that the mail addressed to .T.
P. McMahon, 137 Poplar street should,
thereafter be delivered at 1307 Carroll
street. Then a day or two later, It Is
said, the young man appeared at the
central postoffice and, representing him
self as J. P. McMahon, said that he had
left an order for a change of address in
the delivery of his mail, but had since
removed to Minneapolis and would Ilk©
to have his letters sent to 1227 Washing
ton avenue in that city. While he was
still there a letter addressed to J. P. Mc-
Mahon was handed over to Mr. Hadlich
with the report that there was no such
number on Carroll street as 1307, and
this letter Mr. Hadlicti placed in the
hands of the young man who is now
under arrest.
McMahon Had 3Tot Moved.
From the carrier who had been deliv
ering mail at 137 Poplar street, it was
later learned that the true J. P. McMahon
had not removed from that place and was
complaining that he had not received a
letter which he was expecting from Mon
tana. A conference between the post
office officials and this Mciviahon soon
convinced tooth them and him mat some
person was diverting his mail and he
then reported that he had a few days be
fore received from a "salary loan'
agency a postal card to inform him that
the agency had decided upon investiga
tion to grant the loan for which he had
applied. As he had not applied for a loan
he could not understand the purport of
the card, and had thrown it away.
!t is charge-d that the prisoner repre
senting himself as J. P. McMahon and
using the letter in question as a means
of identification, had applied to D. H.
Tolman. loan agent in the New York
Lrife building for a loan of $35 and after
due course of inquiry on the part of
the agency, had, upon the reputation of
the true J. P. McMahon, been given a
check for that amount. This check which
was on the Capitol bank of this city was
negotiated at the store of the Plymouth
clothing house in the purchase of cloth
ing to the amount of $25, the remainder
being returned to the purchaser in cash.
The negotiation of the check, of course.
Involved the forgery of the name of Mc-
Mahon.
The arrest of the prisoner came about
in a rather unexpected manner and the
circumstances which led up to it ar^ at
tributed to a desire on his part to carry
his negotiations in bank checks stiil
farther. On Saturday afternoon a tele
phone message was received at the loan
office of Mr. Tolman, the person talking
representing himself as the Minnesota
Tailoring company. He asked that Tol
man & Co., as a matter of accommoda
tion, furnish the Minnesota Tailoring
company with some blank checks on the
Capitol bank, explaining that this was
pay day at the shop and the supply of
blank checks had run out. As the bank
had closed no more checks could be se
cured there. The man at the telephone
said he would send a boy for the checks.
A few minutes later the young woman at
Tolman's office called up the Minnesota
Tailoring company and found tna,t the
occupants of that office knew nothing of
the former telephone message or the re
quest for checks and when the boy came
she questioned him sufficiently to learn
that he was to meet the man who had
sent him there at the corner of Fifth
and Wabasha street.
Telephoned for the Police.
Then the young woman, Miss Anna
Gallagher, telephoned to tne - Central
police station for an officer to meet her
at the corner designated and followed the
boy to that point. The young man now
under arrest met the boy at the corner
and was taken into custody by the police
officer. The prisoner has been identified
by Miss Gallagher as the man who se
cured the loan under the name of Mc«
Mahon and by Mr. Hadlich as the one to
whom he gave the letter mentioned
above.
Under the name of Wilson, which he
gave, to Mr. Hadlich yesterday, the pris
oner was' arranged before Judge Lochren
and pleaded not guilty. His case waa
set for hearing at 10 o'clock this morn
ing.

ber of acres of land exclusive of town
lots, 1,887,877; Otter Tail is second, with
1,214,919, and Polk third, with 1,13SA r>S. Tha

average acre value Is Hennepin, with
$37.36; Ramsey is second, $29.28; Dakota
third. $14.66; Blue Earth fourth, $14.45.
Aitkin county is the lowest on the list, its
land being worthy on an average of only
$1.47 per acre.
In the value of taxable personal prop
erty, Hennepin county is first, with $23.
--299,418; Ramsey second, with $16,057,580;
St. Louis third, with $7,579,534; Winona
fourth, $2,298,821; Goodhue fifth, $1,984,288.
The average rate of taxation in mills

and * report formulated for the improve-

The committee on manufacturing will
give an informal supper to the manufac
turing committee of the Minneapolis Com
mercial club at the club dining hall this
evening. The officers of the state agri
culturaJ society ore to be the guests" of
the club also.
This supper is to take the placo of a
Joint meeting between the three organi
zations and will be for the purp;>se of
discussing the proposition of erecting
a manufacture, rs' building at the state
fair grounds. Covers will be la-kl for
thirty and the supper will begin at 7
o'clock.
The committee on manufacturing of
both the St. Paul and Minneapolis Com
mercial clubs believe that there is lot
enough attention paid in the state f;iirg~
to the manufacturing industries of the
state and tonight the officers of the ag
ricultural society will be asked to do
something with this end in view.
The members of the committee feel that
a building of this character would have
a tendency to impress upon . the minds of
those who attend the state fair the man- 1
ufacturing , importance of the state. It
would be particularly advantageous to
the manufacturers of St. Paul and Mm- "
neripolis, altht ugh the entire state could
be -well represented in this-line .

sion, will speak on the work'Of the com*

"Eighty-five hundred dollars spent dar
ing the past season at the fish hatchery
and not a thing to show for it except <>n&
or two trees cut down and a small
amount of gravel removed is the record
of the state game and fish commission'^
work on the improvements there," s.iid
Frank Olson at the meeting of the Sec
ond Ward Improvement association hist
night.
•"Executive Agent Fullerton has had
eight men and one foreman at work there
for a long time. The men receive $i. rM
a day and the foreman $5. They work
ostensibly eight hours a day, beginning
about 7 o'clock in the morning and quit
ting at 3 in the afternoon. These men
have been there all the season and there
la absolutely nothing in the way of re
sults to show for what they have been
doing."
Mr. Olson thought that this state of
affairs should be remedied, and the as
sociation appeared to agree with him
unanimously. Other members spoke of the
situation at the hatchery, and the dis
cussion culminated in a resolution offered"^
by Mr. Olson to the effect that Repre
sentative Dunn be notified of the condi
tions, and asked to see what could be
done in the way of having improvements
done by contract Instead of by day work.
The resolution was adopted and a copy
will be forwarded to Mr. Dunn.
The association received a communica
tion from Supt. Smith, of the street rail
way company, relative to the complaint
made at the last meeting of the associa
tion in regard to the negligence of the
conductors of the Seventh street and
Maria and Rondo cars in refusing to wait
for transfer passengers at the intersec
tion.
Mr. Smith acknowledged the receipt of
the communication and also the receipt
of a clipping from The Globe of the
morning following the meeting which the
officers of the association inclosed in their
letter to him. The superintendent did
not say what would be done in the mat
ter, but frorni conversation with the resi
dents who use the lines it appears that
some orders must have been issued for
the cars now wait for the transfer pas
sengers.
The association also decided to affiliate,
as far as possible, with the First Ward
Business Men's club in their effort to
have the Rondo car line extended to Lake
Phalen. The association holds that tha
lake is as much of a resort for residents
of the Second ward as it is for those
of the First, and feel that anything that
can be done by the association should
be done willingly.
