Two sets of antlers so locked are | rare, but not unknown. It is believed | that the Flambeau Chippefa has the only | set of three locked antlers in the world. = | This accident d have happened | only in one way. Two bucks of equal | strength were fighting in the forest and | became locked. Then, while they were | still struggling, a third buck appeared in | re usual angry temper of these animals n the mating season and charged them th, probably repeatedly, until his own | horns became fastened. The spectacle of | o, three huge bucks mated to each other | until death would jgave been a great one | if there had been anvbody there to see. | The Indian said he found the horns | north of Flambeau Lake, about a mile from the water. They were Iying on the side of a hill and there were no bones | near them. The condition of the horns | proved that the fight occurred not more | than two years ago, and probably last fall. ‘ The antlers were all of full-grown bucks, showing eight and ten points each. The third pair bad been driven into the others just above where they joined, and the branches of them were about equally locked with the branches of the others. They were not broken or chipped in any. way, proving that when the third buck had made his last charge he was fastened so firmly that there was no room Jor any ome of his points to play in the forks of the others. Indeed. all of the horns were 80 stoutly joined that they could notbe moved at all, being as rigid as If molded in that fashion from cast steel ————— Fresh-Water Pearls, A high-luster white pearl, worth 32000, has been found in Iowa. Forty years ago a fresh-water pear] gs large was found in New Jer and was sold for $200 in Paris. In 1893 fine pink pearls were found in Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas, to the value of $10000. In 18% there was great excitement over the discovery of fine pearls in considerable numbers in the Saline, St. Francis and White rivers in Arkansas. A few weeks ago pearls we: found in Wisconsin, the largest of whicl sold for 31100. Fresh-water pearls have been found in other States, but if correct- ly described in the dispatches the Iowa pearl is one of the most valuable white pearie produced in American rivers. Since the button manufacturers began to use mussel and other shells in their irst | first | ¢ work a closer lookout for fresh-water pearls has been kept, and more have been found. But in no case has the finding justified the theory that the existénce of one pearl in a river bed indicated that pezrl fishing in that locality would be profitable. There is, however, a fair sup- ply of fresh-water pearls for the Amer- ican market, coming mainly, in previous vears, from the Southern States. It is now coming mainly from the Western States.—Chicago Inter Ocean. —_——— Not more than 2500 persons in Paris have a capital of as much as $200,000, of those are for- and nearly one-third eigners.

Special Dispatch to The Call, CHICAGO, June 16.—Pat Dunne's good horse Toah, a son of Modesty, the only filly which ever won the American Derby, annexed the mile handicap at Harlem to- day, the feature event of the card. Toah was heavily played at 9 to 5, forcing the odds to 8 to 5 at post time. Winkfield had to shake up the gelding in the last six- teenth to beat Bragg, © to 1 in the bet- ting.

Dr. Burns plaved a wonderful game against Sim- kins. The latter also displayed great skill and gameness, but he could not overcome Burns’ lead.

ONE WAY TO START A BALEY HORSE Lift His Fore Foot and He Will Forget All His Stub- bornness. The balky horse has found a champion. Miss Mabel Alva Messenger., who has been conducting an individual crusade in ehalf of this much-abused animal, is broadening her efforts to save the stub- born horse from mistreatment. As a life- long friend of the animal she is trying to frave him from undes2rved punishment. Miiss Mcessenger has more thar a plea for the balky horse. She has a cure for his stubbornness. She has came upon such a norse, wearing bis driver's patience to the limit, blocking a street full of vekicles and probably tying up two or three lines of street cars, and with her vplan has zoothed the driver's temper, started the horse on his way, and has released the congested mass of traffic. Don't beat the horse. That is Miss Messenger’s first bit of advice. He may have a sort of cquine rezson back of his conduct. Then her remedy is of the sim- plest. David Harum had an amis.ng remedy, but it required patience. He, it will be remembered, tied the animal so that it could not move when it wanted to, and’ his patience exceeded that of the balky horse. Miss Messenger’s remedy takes just a minute. She simply iifts one of the horse’s front hoofs, holds it up for ‘a minute, and when che has dropped it the horse has lost his stubbornress. The plan has never failed, she asserts. Explaining her crusade, Miss Messenger says: ““Much cruelty and inconvenience could 100, Louis ne! be avoided in the treatment of balkyl horses did the drivers but know of a sim- ple and sure means of curing this most disagreeable of faults. While in Arizona and New Mexico I have known many per- manent cures effected in horses that have ‘balked for years. Whether it is perma- nent or not, it is always effective for the time being. A horse that balks usually does =0 from having been overloaded at some time, and though at the time he balks his load may be light, for some un- accountable reason he refuses to move.” —Chicago Tribune. : —_———— To Remove Steel Rust.

A L Champion James J. Jeffries arrived in Oakland yesterday from Southern Califor- nia. He was accompanied by Kid Egan. Jeffries has been visiting his family at Los Angeles and enjoyed a gide trip to Catalina Island. Aglow with healthy color and tinted a light tan, the big Californian was at ease with himself and the world as he lolled about the corridors of the Hotel Metropole. His stay in Oakland will be short, for this week the champion will go to the El Campo Ark, which will be his headquarters until the day of his fight with Jim Corbett for the championship. Jeffries is all confidence, but as usugl far from voluble. “My training will be along the usual lines,” said the broad-shouldered fighter. “For a week we will do light gymnasium work and road exercise and then settle down to solid exercise. I expect Fitzsim- mons will be on hand in a few days. Be- sides him there will be Joe Kennedy, my brother Jack and Billy Delaney, with ‘Kid’ Egan as majordomo. “I am in first-ciass condition for train- ing and expect to go into the ring ready for all my clever opponent has at com- mand.” Egan says Jeff will tip the scales at 210 for the fight. The quarters at El Campo are about’' ready to receive the fighter and his entourage. Little detalls are in the hands of Egan and Delaney for ad- Justment. During the training course Jeffries will have the benefit of salt water plunges as frequently as he may feel the need of the refreshing exercise. He will have the bay at his disposal. It was partly on this account that the site was selected. His followers agree that the vacation trip south was a bracing trip for the big man and put him in fine fettle for the coming five weeks' work.

Baseball is a part of ex-Champion Jim Corbett's training at Croll's Gardens in Alameda. Like Brother Joe, the actor- pugilist is an adept at the great national game. Before he became famous in the ring Jim had acquired a name with the fans by his fielding work in the old Hav- erlys of fan Francisco. Yesterday Corbett, with his brother Tom, Eddie Hanlon, Yank Kenny, Harry Foley, Sam Berger anu others, put in two hours batting flies in the big field near Croll's place. They are preparing a match game with a team captained by Harry Corbett. Sullivan umpired a game many ago that was witnessed by nearly people. In speaking of the ancient mond vesterday Corbett said: “About sixteen years ago, If I remem- ber correctly, I played baseball in this same lot with George Van Haltren, Fred Carroll, Morris and many of the old-time idols of the diamond. To-day I went out into the field and felt just as limber as T did then, although I am somewhat out of practice with the ball and bat.” During the afternoon Corbett put a- in some time in his gymnasium, which has | been well fitted up under the supervision of Professor Tommy Dare. Jim also donned the gloves with Sam Berger and big Yank Kenny, going two rounds with each man. After that he and Berger en- gaged in a game of shuffie board with Brother Tom and Harry Foley. The first game was taken by Corbett and Berger, but in “the second contest they were shut out and were laughed at by their opponents — WADDELL'S VICTORY PUTS PHILADELPHIA IN LEAD In National League Game Fraser’s Long Home-Run Drive De- feats New York.

Two of the Dewey cowboys, Alvin Ship and Ed Tucker, were sent to jafl for con- tempt for refusing to answer the ques- tions of the State. They refused on the ground that their answers might in- criminate themselves and because they said they understood warrants were for them. Birch Berry was called and accused Chauncey Dewey of having fired the first shot, which struck Roy Berry. MecBride, he said, fired the second shot, which killed Bruce Berry. The court then adjourned with Berry still on the stand under cros: examination. Roy Berry was brought into the court- yut | room on a stretcher and his entranee ere- ated a sensation. Asked by Attorne: General Coleman who shot him, he re- plied in a weak voice that it was Chaur cey Dewey.
