Mary has been Dodge's servant girl ever since the family took the house at 1303 Lafayette street three weeks ago for the summer. She didn’t come up to all the requirements of a modern housemaid, but in view of the stringency of the ser- vant girl market, she was tolerated. She had an unwarranted notion at times that she was proprietress of the house. Then she would make figure 8's on the pol- ished kitchen floor-and say unkind things to the mistress. But the limit of patience was reached last night when Mary cut in on a parlor full of company and demanded her wages. It was very embarrassing, of course, but Dr. Dodge rose to the occasion; he hap- pened to have the price in his pocket, Worked for Him ened to have us all arrested, but I dldn’t think she’d do it.

During the first three rounds everything as in favor of Smith, who showed him- | self decidedly the more clever of the two men, but for the remainder of the contest Roberts had his own way and he dealt | out a lot of severe body punishes. In the eighth round Smith made no _attempt whatever to defend himself. e was twice.knocked down and then counted out. | Subsequently it became known that | Smith’s right arm was dislocated in the ' fourth round, and at the finish his legs were badly cramped. | After the fight Smith was removed to 2 hospital, where he was still unconscious | lat 5 o'clock this morning.

The committee will at once communicate with physicians thfoughout the State and the superintendents of county hospitals for the necessary data upen which to make a report to the upper house of the Legislature in 1903. The committee will try to find out: First, whether or not consumption is con- tagious; second, if it be on the increase; third, if patients affected with tuberculo- sis who are a public charge should be segregated and supported by the State, instead of by the several counties, as {§ done at present.

W., WASHINGTON, April 22.—Secretary Hay has given Carlos Martinez Silva, the Colomblan Minister, to understand that he cannot negotiate a treaty with him for the acquisition by the United States of the Panama canal until ‘Congress de- termines upon the route to be construct- ed. Not even a preliminary agreement; such as was signed with Nicaragua and Costa Rica, will be negotiated, Dr. Silva will, however, remain in Washington dis- cussing various questions in connection with the Panama canal so that in case Congress duthorizes the President to ae- quire this route, the treaty may be imme- diately concluded, Dr. Silva has found that an important ohange fn the sentiment of this country with respect to the canal has ecourred, “The only argument against the Pan- ama canal made in the preliminary report of the Isthmian Canal Commission,” he sald to-day, “ls that an agreement with the Panama Canal Company for Ameri- can acquisition of the route is imprac- ticable. Since the preliminary report con- taining this declaration was made, Colom= bla, through its legation in Washington, hag submitted to the Secretary of State a formal memorandum embodying the conditions upon which it s willing that the United States should acquire the canal. These conditions are highly ad- vantageous to the Amerfoan Government. “M. Hutin, president of Panama Canal Company, who has been unable to seil the company’s rights without Colombia's consent, has assured me that his com- pany is willing to dispose of its conces- sions on reasonable terms. I think the company will be willing to abide by the result of an appraisal.” ‘““The Isthmian Canal Commission, in its preliminary report, said that the Panama Canal was shorter and could be built for 53,000,000 less than the Nicaragua pette, excluding the cost of the concession. All technical problems have been solved at Panama, but they have still to be de- termined at Nicaragua. The sanitary conditions have greatly improved at Panama and there will be no such exces- sive death rate as would prevail at Nicaragua. There are excellent harbors at Colon.and Panama and there are no harbors on the Nicaragua route. I think every engineer fully understands.the pre- pondering advantage of the Panama over the Nicaragua route.” PROFESSIONAL BOUTS LIKELY TO BE TA.BOOED Pacific Amateur Athletic Association to Take Acticn. in the Matter. The effort being made by Alec Greg- gains, manager of the San Francisco Ath- letic Club, to secure a permit from the Board of Supervisors to hold a profes- sional boxing contest in July, has attract- ed the attention of officers of the: Pacific Amateur Athletic Assocfation. The San Francisco Athletic Club is purely an ama- teur organization and in the opinion of some of the officfals of the association has no right to hold professional . contests. At all events the matter will be brought up at a special meeting of the association within a few days, and it Is understood that an amendment will be added to the by-laws prohibiting an amateur club giv- ing professiona} prizefight exhibitions. If this rule goes Into effect it will pre- vent the Reliance and the Stockton Ath- letic Club giving theif monthiy profes- sional boxing exhibitions. It is understood that Manager Greggains in asking for a permit to hold a professional contest in July follows a precedent established by the clubs mentioned. The matter of holding such contests was informally discussed at a meeting of the board of directors of the Olympic Athletic Club last Friday evening and it was unan- imously decided never to give a profes- sional exhibition. e directors are anx- ious to develop a healthy amateur spirit in this State and they believe that this can only be done by adhering to their plan of -holding amateur boxing exhibi- tions every few months. Chatrman Bockman of the committee on boxing of the Pacific Amateur Associa- tion is unalterably opposed to an amateur club holding professional exhibitions and he intends using his influence to stop this in future.

Taken From Her by Her H_usband, ‘Who Then Disappears. With tears streaming down her cheeks a handsome young woman entered the office of the Bond and Warrant Clerk in | the Hall of Justice vesterday and asked for a warrant for the arrest of her hus- band for kidnaping.

Mrs. Shaughnessy waited for nearly half an hour for the return of her hus band and child and then, suspecting some- | thing was wrong, she went into the salnogn and inquired for her husband. To her great surprise she learned that he had left the piace by a rear door, taking the child with him. Frantic with grief and convinced that she had been deserted and robbed of her child, Mrs. Shaughressy hurried to police headquarters and asked for a warrant for her husband’s arrest. After the warrant had been issued Mrs. Shaughnessy, while riding in a Powell- street car, espied her husband and child sitting on the dummy.

An opinion was handed down to-day in the case of H. I. Bedford vs. the Eastern Building and Loan Associatlon of Syra- cuse, N. Y. This e grew out of the sale of stock in the building association to Bedford and the making of a loan to him in 1891, he being a resident of Tennessee.
