Special Dispatch to The Call. | “ TACOMA, Dec. 19. —Governor John G. | Brady vigorously advocates representa- | tion of Alaska in Congress, revision of | the 1and laws of the district, and is | strongly opposed to the :Territorial form | of government at the present time. In i an interview at Sitka he says: | ““Territorial government is not what we | want now. Give Alagka the same land ‘laws as are now operative in Oregon or | Washington and then we can talk of mak- | ing the district self-governing. As things are now a clear title’to land in Alaska, except under the old soldier clause, is im- | possible. | “As the land laws stand now only blocks of éighty acres can be acquired, and in this case the Government with- | holds each alternate eighty acres. Under a provision of that kind it is impossible to expect any large population. Give us | proper land laws and 1 will guarantee a | population - of over a million Scandina- vians alone in three years, and those are | the people we want—peaceful, law-abiding | #and" industrious. There are Finlanders, | 100, oppressed as they are by Russia— | young men being forced into the army. These Finlanders would take every op- | portunity to steal away to a country so | like their own in climate. “Alaska’s importance as a strategic point has been unappreciated. 1 believe that Unalaska will some day be a base of supplies for a fleet of vesels that will pro- | teet this gateway to American territory.” 1 ‘When asked if the -consummation of his | views would not call for change in the | capital the Governor replied: | - “'Yes, some time the capital undoubtedly will have 0 be changed to Valdes or some other more central place than Sitka. It would be unwise to change it until time had shown the most desirable location, It would be a needless waste of money to change it now to some eastern point (Ju- neau), erect the necessary buildings and furnish them, when the natural trend is westward. The present location of the capital is satisfactory to the district in its present condition.” Dies With a Song on His Lips. ST. PAUL, Minn., Dec. 19.—C. T.

Phelps, executrix of the last will and testament of T. G. Phelps, up for trial here to-day = before Judge Buck. The suit is upon a promissory note for $7000, but the answer puts in issue the title to valuable properties of the estate, including the Liberty Hill mines in this State, ¢ The plaintiff’s evidence consisted mere- Iy of the production of the note and the testimony of Mrs. Phelps that nothing had been paid thereon. The defendant then commenced taking testimony which he claims will prove that Phelps was not, nor is his estate, the owner of the prop- erty in dispute, although it stands in the deceased’s name, his contention being that the deeds given by Wadleigh were in- tended as mortgages. Wadleigh testified that he first became acquainted with Phelps in 1886. In 1889 he borrowed $5000 and gave his note for the amount. In 1890 this note was taken up and a new one given for $6830. This in turn was surrendered in 1894 and the note sued upon given. He further stated that to secure the payment of the first note he made a deed of certain proper- tles. and from time to time increased the security by giving further deeds until Phelps had property of his situated in San Francisco, Nevada County and the State of Washington, all given as col- lateral security. He produced a document purported to be signed by Phelps in which the latter acknowledged that he held the property in trust for Wadleigh. The defendant then testified that after the making of the deed to the San Fran- cisco property, Phelgl sold a portion of it for $2500, $2000 of which he credited upon the mnote of 18%, sending the remainin $300 to him. This testimony was offeredq for the purpose of showing that the de- ceased acknowledged that he held the property only in trust. The case will con~ tinue to-morrow.

Ll The absence of Carter money yesterday made George Gardner a still stronger fa- vorite over the “Kid” in their fight to- night at the Mechanics’' Pavilion thanYe was when betting opened on Wednesday. This will be the third meeting of the rival middle-weight boxers, and the prestige of Gardner's brace of victories has foreed him into 10 to 7% favoritism. There can be no question as to the condi- tion of the men, both having gone through a severe course of preparatory work with- out developing a weak spot. Neither Gardner’s hand nor his ankle has given him a moment's worry. His friends, who have watched him since his first appear- ance in_this city last July, are astonished at the improvement in his style, both as an offensive and a defensive fighter. In the four years he has been boxing he has defeated many good men, and if he wins from Carter to-night there will be no one to question his right to the middle- weight championship he now holds. Carter's friends accept the line they ob- tained on him in his fight with Waleott on which to base their hopes of a victory to- night. The “Kid" showed he had grown stronger and cleverer than he was when he met Gardner. It is claimed he has con- tinued on the upgrade, but whether his improvement has been greater than that of his opponent will not be shown until they have gone part way on their ring journey to-night. The ‘preliminaries make the card the best of the year. With Jockey Winnie O'Connor and John Crowell, Billy Snail- ham and Tommy Gilfeather and ‘Yoby Ir- win and Arthur Granfield in the going there should be sufficient action to satisfy the most exacting ring patron. As this is the busy season of the year in the retail stores the principal bout will be held off as late as possible. With the pre- liminaries ‘scheduled to go twenty-four rounds it will be nearly 11 o'clock before the big fellows enter the ring with Referee “Jim™ McDonald. e NEILL DEFEATS TRACY. San Franciscan Wins In the Eight- eenth Round at Portland. PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 19. San Franeisco and Tom Tra lia to-night met in the ring for the third time at the Exposition building, and Neill won in the elghteenth round. In the first round Neill landed on Tracy's chin with his right and cut a gash an inch in length, from which the blood flowed in a stream. During the first five rounds Neill jabbed Tracy on the right eve with his left and all but closed that member. After the fifth round Tracy did some effective work, and during the next eight rounds landed hard with his right on Neill's stomach. The fighting fast and Tracy proved to be a good in-fighter, but Neill kept up his jabbing on the face. In the seven- teenth Neill commenced to uppercut Tracy, and at the end of the round Tracy appeared tired. In the eighteenth Tracy landed on Neill's head and Neill came back with an uppercut. After a clinch Neill ianded with his right on Tracy's jaw and he went down. Tracy was unable to respond to the call of time and Referee Joe Acton gave the fight to Neill. $3150 for a McKinney Mare.

NEW LONDON, Conn., Dec. 19.—Austin Rice of New London and George Dixon of New York met to-night for twenty rounds at 122 pounds. Rice was given the deci- sfon. During the early rounds Dixon led often for Rice's head, but had litle suc- cess in landing. Up to the tenth round Dixon was sluggish, but in_the tenth he commenced to show some of hig old-time footwork. The twentieth round was the hardest of all, first one man having the advantage and then the other. Several times Rice landed good blows, but lack of force prevented a knockout. Both men were fighting strongly when the gong sounded. BALTIMORE, Md., Dec. 19.—Dixon and Joe Tipman of this city have been matched to box twenty rounds before the Knickerbocker Athletic Club here on De- cember 30. ——————— Racing at New Orleans.

Phil Archibald Finishes in Front of Mazo, Faverite for the Hurdle Han dicap---Impromptu Is Left and Jim Hale Defeats Edna Brown Driving 'THE CALL'S RACING FORM CHART. ANDRIDING” KELLY made the most successful and sensational parachute descent of the season yesterday at Oakland track. ‘When ready in the opening dash he cut away with Billy Lyons, a 150 to 1 shot, and landed a head in front of Tommy Burns astride Gold Baron, a men- dicant in the betting. There were thirteen starters in the race, which was decided over a mile, and the chance of picking the winner looked about as bright as to fall from the dome of the Claus Spreckels building and alight on an old-fashioned | lightning proof feather bed, It must not be construed though that Billy Lyon evef if neglected by the popular boniface after whom he is named, lacked attention, At post time 30 was the best obtainable, with the bulk of the coin going into the books on Colonel Ballantyne, the warm favorite, Limelight, Fondo, John Welch and Elmer L. The first choice grounded on a sandbar in the home chan- nel and as stated before ‘‘Handriding” Kelly moved atong from ninth pesition and beat Gold Baron ot 1n 1:42%. The division which usually strings its | coin with the ravorites was treated to several hard knocks, for besides Colonel Ballantyne, Esternei, Mazo and Jarret- ierre were detained on #he way home. The card drew the usual Jarge crowd. Waiter Jennings’ Darebin filly Jacque- minot beat Esternell, favorite for the two- year-old scrambie, easily at the wire. winner was 5 to 1 in the ring and ap- parently aiways held the footing over tne sirst choice. Cathetlo, Jones, finisned n the show. Andy Bilakeley's jumper, Mazo, was toutea as the good thing for the mile and a quarter hurdle event, his price being pounded down from 5 to 2 to 8 10 5 favOrit ism. For a time Lloyd had the first choice out in front, but Phil Arghibald headed him on the back stretch ahd at the close it was no contest, Archibald scoring by six lengths. the betting with Rainier. Six clever two-year-olds six and a half furlong selling affair. past form Jarretierre d'Or was installed favorite. Tne latter ran under a dozen wraps to the stretch, but when Buchanan let him down he flattened out like a punctured tire and ran unplaced. In a rattling finish Johnny Woods on Commis- sioner Forster earned the decision from The Giver by a head. With better luck Milas could have won. Report had it that Impromptu was not ready, and Jim Hale went to the post a 2 to 1 favorite for the seven furlong s ing run. Impromptu was left through the swerving of Marineuse, and in a drive Hale beat Edna Brown a neck. There looked to be nothing to the last event if Lr. Bernays was fit, and from three his odds were backed to 11 to 5. The doctor received a nice ride at_ the hands of J. Woods, winning easily from Cougar and Grand Sachem. Track Notes. After a successful se trian tracks Charley Gray is back at his home in Oakland. Gray once rode the horses raced by Tully Coulter. Frank Weir, owner of Merops, claimed Bab from the last race on Wednesday. The mare was entered to be sold for $30, So at $625 Frank probably secured a bar- gain. The ride of Armstrong on Favorito was not satisfactory to the judges, and after the race the rider was indefinitely sus- pended. Tormy Burns on Edna Brown put up a | superb ride, but the mare trifie outclassed by Jim Hale. Sir Lewis might have been a factor in the fourth event had Larry Daly not been was a cut oif while trying to get through on the | rail turning into the stretch.

L e e e S e e S a3 L LADY DEFENTS SHASTA " TIGER” Gamblers, Like So Many Othellos, Are Out of Jobs. REDDING, Dec. 19.—The efforts of a woman have closed the sambling houses in Redding, The ‘‘tiger” has retired to its lair. Redding had been running wide open, but the resorts have now resumed thelr old-time dullness and except for a social shaking of dice or the whirr of a slot machine there is nothing to be heard in the way of a sound indicating that big chances are being taken. The lady in the case is Mrs. Henry Clineschmidt, wife of ore of the City Trustees. She had the keepers of a saloon arrested and then she circulated a petition addressed to District Attorney Dozier seeking an enforcement of the State anti- gambling law. The tide of public opinion changed and the woman's effort met with success. An active prosecution of the case was soon taken up. Manipulators of ivories, pasteboards and wheels believed they saw an inception of the crusade against them and like so many Othelloa bemoaning the oss of an occupation they have packed their pafaphernalia and de- parted from Redding. The lady has been successful over the “‘tiger.” Fails to Hear Cry of ‘“Fore.” LONDON, Dec. 19.—Rév. J. Monroe Gib- son, formerly pastor of the Second Pres- byterian Church of Chicago, while playing golf was struck in the eye by a ball and it is feared he will lose his sight.

Stomach troubles are so common and In 09 | MOSt cases so obstinate to cure that peopls |are apt to look with suspicion on any | remedy claiming to be a radical, perma- nent cure for dyspepsia and indigestio Many ‘such pride themselves: on theis j acuteness in never being humbugged, l especially in medicines. | This fear of being humbugged can be | carried too far, so far, in fact, that many | People suffer for years with weak diges- tion rather than risk a little time and | money in faithfully testing the claims | made of a preparation so reliable and uni- | lversally used as Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tab- | tets. | Now, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are | vastly different in one important respect from ordinary proprietary medicines, for the reason that they are not a secret pat« | ent medicine. No secret is made of their ingredients, although they are sold by ali druggists under protection of tradé mark, but analysis shows them to contain the natural digestive ferments, pure aseptie pepsin, the digestive acids, .Golden Seal, bismuth, hydrastis and nux. They are | not cathartic, neither do they act power- fully on any organ, but they cure indiges- tion on the common sense plan of digest- ing the food eaten thoroughly before it has time to ferment, sour and cause the mischief. This is the only secret of thefr success. Cathartic pllls never have and never can cure indigestion and stomach troubles, be= cause they act entirely on the bowels, whereas the whole trouble is really in the stomach. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets taken af! meals digest the food. That is all there | to it. Food not digested or half-digest | Is poison, as it creates gas, acidity, head- | aches, paipitation of the heart. joss of flesh and many other troubles which are often called by some other name. v it DR.
