The older fighter bent nearly double and the bell saved him from going out in that round. | Dal was plainly worried when he came cut of his corner for the fourteenth, but | went to certain defeat with gameness. | Perry carried the fight right to Dal from | the tap of the gong and ripped a terrific right to Hawkins' body. Dal swayed and saved himself from going to the floor only | by spreading his legs. Perry was after | him like a tiger. He sent a long sweep to the jaw and followed with a lunge with the right to the same spot. Dal went to the floor with a crash. His head struck first and he lay stretched on his back with | his eyes set and not a muscle moving, | Dal drew up his right leg at the count of | nine and his head rolled a little to one side, but he could not get up. He was | counted out. Tt was a clean fight and the best man {won. Queenan rushed matters from thd start and played for the body from the tap of the gong. Hawkirs stalled him off with his clever left for five rounds, but |in the sixth Queenan landed his first solid punch of the fight. It was a right | drive over the heart. It made . Dal | wince, and his body was still red from ihe effects of It when he got the finish- | ing stroke. Queenan kept up his body fighting through the contest, and the 1ight swings he landed slowly wore Dal down to defeat. Hawkins = played a waiting game { throughout the fight. The younger and | stronger man had to carry the fight to { the veteran, who contented himself with right crosses and left hooks. | | FINNS MEET ITALIANS | AND ONE MAN IS DEAD | Dance at = Mine Near Nanaimo Is Enlivened by a General Fight. VANCOUVER, B. C., April 15.—Fence pickets. chairs, planks and wooden rails of all sizes, from hand spikes to sawlogs, were some of the weapons used in a free | ight_which occurred last night between | the Finnish and Italian colonles at the Extension mines, near Nanaimo. What started the trouble was until late to-day lice, but one of the results was the fatal injury and subsequent death of a Finn named Machier. . The scene of the trouble was a dance given by the Italians, into which a num- ber of Finns broke, and a free fight en- sued. The first weapons that came to { hand were used and the flfht ‘was a fierce one. Machier was carved up during the melee and died in the hospital to-day. Arrests are being made. 4 —_— Syndicates Supply Money. NEW YORK, April 15.—A World cable from London says: J. P.

First Appearance of Dandruff a Fore- runner of Future Baldness. That such is the case has been con- clusively proven by scientific research. Prof. Unna, the noted European skin speclalist, declares that dandruff is the burrowed-up cuticle of the scalp, caused by parasites destroying the vitality in the hair bulb. The hair becomes lifeless, and, in_time, falls out. This can be prevented. Newbro’s Herpicide kills this dandruff germ, and restores the hair to its natural softness and abundancy. Herpicide is now used by thousands of ‘people—all satisfled that it is the most wonderful hair preparation on the mar- ket to-day. a mystery being investigated by the po- | IR MOUNTAIN MEN TO ANGER Secret Lodge Organizer Is Escorted Out of Nashton. Special Dispatch to The Call. CARTERS, April 15.—W. N. Crenshaw, State organizer of the Fraternal Brother- hood, a secret society of recent strength in this State, has sworn to complaints against twenty-eight residents of Nash- ton, as the result of an exciting experi- ence he had in that village on Saturday night. Crenshaw, who is a recent arrival from the East, formed a lodge of his or- der here last week and went to Nashton, thirteen miles above, to perform a similar office. Crenshaw attended a ball there on Saturday night, and while at the dance is alleged to have made slighting remarks to the effect that he was mingling with a company below his station and that if his parents in the East knew of it they would disown him. He is also alleged to have made slighting remarks about Cali- fornia’s native daughters. These comments were soon given wide publicity and the ire of Nashton’s young men and old men, brothers and fathers of native daughters, was aroused. They organized under a leader, and, after Cren- shaw had retired to bed, the band of cit- izens repaired to his abode. The leader knocked on the door, and, on receiving an answer, told Crenshaw to come to the door. When he complied three stout men seized him In his night clothes, and a small dump-cart, ready for the occasion, was brought up. Crenshaw was thrown into this, Then his clothi and valise were brought out. In the freezing night alr Crenshaw was made to dress himself. The vigilantes then took hold of the cart and drew the frightened man about town and up to a watering trough. They were about to plunge him Into the icy water when cooler counsel prevailed and it was decided to order him to leave town. Cren- shaw was drawn over a rough trail to the edge of town, given his valise and told to depart. It was nearly midnight. The night was dark and it was thirteen miles down a narraw-gauge track to this town, in a mountainous country and over dizzy trestles 100 feet high. He arrived here in the morning, half dead from fatigue. Crenshaw immediately swore wholesale bunch of John Doe warrants and some arrests have already been made, Crenshaw Insists that he did not make the statements charged to him, but twen- ty-five men of Nashton will swear he did. There is a movement on foot to bring the affair before the Native Sons offi- | clally, and have the Fraternal Brother- | hood, which numbers many Native Sons and Daughters, deal with Crenshaw. There was further talk of inviting Cren- | shaw to leave this place, Crenshaw is | still here, however, and says that he will ot be driven out of the country. The aternal Brotherhood will be asked to investigate the affair. HAVE YOU HEARD OF IT? If You Have Not Your Neighbor Has.

HEINE to a 'Warerooms and Hall, 235-287 Geary Strect, | 1 b g EAPORT TRADE NEEDS STIMULU Manufacturers Told "to Cultivate Foreign Customers. INDIANAPOLIS, April 15.—The seventh annual convention of the Natienal Manu- facturers’ Association met this morning in the Hall of Representatives. In his an- nual report—the sixth he has presented— President Theodore C. Search of Philadel- phia called attention to the declining ex- ports of American manufactured products and urged manufacturers not to neglect their foreign customers in this era of ex- traordinary home demand, lest in times of depression they should find their for- eign trade destroyed and no export out- lets for the surpius of an overstocked home market. Search maintained that the National Reciprocity Convention, which was held in Washington last November, was thor- oughly representative of the manufactur- ing interests of the country and its action indicative of the true sentiments of the manufacturers concerning reciprocity. He declared that further development of the reciprocal trade idea depended upon the possibilities of special legislation like that for which the proposed concession to Cuba affords a precedent. ‘With regard to the proposition to create a new Federal department Search ex- pressed gratification at the progress that had been made toward the passage of the Nelson bill, and urged more energetic per- sonal support of the measure by the indi- vidual members of the assoclation. The principle of direct Government aid to the merchant marine, as embodied in the nding ship subsidy bill, was com- mended as in perfect accord with the dec- larations of previous annual conventions. Concerning _isthmian canal projects Search took the position that the people really cared but little whether the Pan- ama or the Nicaragua route should be chosen, so long as some decisive action should be taken by Congress which would advance the matter to the point of actual undertaking of the construction of an in-, teroceanic waterway. i The pending bills for the reorganization | of the Consular service on practical lines were recommended for approval by the assoclation. The pending eight-hour bill | and the “anti-injunction bill,” Search : sald, should not be permitted to become . laws without having been most carefully | considered in their bearing on manufac- | turing interests. The appointment of a ' permanent committee on Interstate com- | merce law was recommended as a means | of alding the movement to secure desired | amendments of that act. Search said that the greatest need of the organization was a larger income, and he advocated the increase of the annual | fee from $50 to $100. As a means of in- creasing the influence and prestige of the | assoclation Search suggested the holding | of semi-annual conventions of manufac- turers and merchants for the considera- tion of special topics; such, for example, | as methods of extending export trade. He also recommend the subdivision of the work of the association among a number of committees. PORTO RICAN LABOR i LEADER IS ACQUITTED Supreme Court of the Island Reverses the Decision in the Case of Iglesias. SAN JUAN, April 15.—The Supreme Court of Porto Rico rendered a decision to-day in the appeal of Santiago Iglesias, president of the Federation of Workmen of Porto Rico, who was sentenced last | December to three years four months | and eight days' imprisonment on the charge of conspiring to raise the price of labor in Porto Rico. } The court acquitted Iglesias of all the | | charges against him, thus reversing the decision the lower court. A fine of $25, = however, for contempt of court in not answering a summons was allowed to ' stand. ' Fifteen hundred members of the Fed- eration of Workmen paraded through San | Juan this afternoon.

DULUTH, Minn., April 15.—Telephone advices received from Eveleth early to- day reported the destruction by fire last night of the City Jail and the blowing up of the Duluth, Mesaba and Northern Rallroad depot by burglars at that place. In the jail fire an unknown prisoner was burned to death. Several hours later burglars blew up the depot safe. They overestimated the amount of nitro-glycerin needed and as a result there was .a report that woke up the entire town, shattering windows in the houses for blocks around. When the cit- izens reached the scene of the explosion the station lay in ruins and the debris had caught fire from the stove. _The flames were extinguished and then an un-, successful search was made for the safe. It was too big to carry away and it is thought it must have been blown into pieces too small to be located. No traces whatever could be found of the burglars and it is not known whether they were killed or escafed.

G. Rathbone, the former director of posts, on his appeal. This company's bond was refused when offered for the_ appearance of Rathbone when he was first arrested, but his lgwyers now insist that, according to law and in the inter- ests of justice, baill should be accepted. The company has risks amounting to $2,000,000 in Cuba, mostly on account of Government employes. The president of the court has consult- cd with Governor Wood concerning the matter of accepting the bond, but nn de- cision on the subject has been reached. The court has not yet decided to ac- cept the bond of the Fidelity Company for the appearance of Rathbone. If this bond is not accepted counsel for Rath- bone probably will apply for a writ of habeas corpus.

The Keller suits tor ladies are destined to mark an era in suit-making in San Francisco because they impart that subtle thing called “CHIC" to their fair wearers. The secret of this is that the Keller tallors know how t3 favor the figure to the point of ideality and give it grace and beauty even where it lacks naturally. That is the real test of artistic tailoring.Any _tailoring _establishment cut a garment, the glve it fairly -well some of passable finishing, but the Keller tail- oring does more than these; it puts the indi- viduality combined in snas, gracefulness and daintiness into the garment in such manner that these qualities seem to belong to the wearer.
