IS AN AWKWARD FIGHTER HE HAS NO PARTICULAR PUNCH AND 13 WORSE FOR OPPONENT TO WATCH THAN A , THREERING CIRCUS.

(By Tad.) ' JCew York, June 11. Stanley Ketchel is the man of the . hour today. There is more talk of the murdering maules, from Michigan now than there is of Jeffries, Johnson and Langford combined. The fact that he couldn't knock out the great Jack O'Brien in three rounds did it. He went, up, a pugilistic skyrocket, admired by all. How does he fight? They ask. , What's his punch 'i What's his chance with Johnson? How Ketchel Stands. ;His punch? He has no particular punch. His awkwardness covers his style, his delivery and his speed. He stands first with the left foot out, a fcecond later with thov right foot out, and then with ' both feet planted squarely in front of him. Tho most awkward fighter we . have seen- her in years. " Me misses a left or rieht ournoeelv to pull an opponent on. He feints with a right, shoots it half way and then like lightning hooks over the right to the point of the jaw. The other man never knows what side the punch is coming from. V O'Brien said after the fight Wednesday . night that boxing Ketchel was worse than trying to watch a threeringed circus.

DESPERATE MOVE TO RESCUE A8D0L Reactionaries at Midnight Make an Effort to Get Deposed Sultan. A FIERCE BATTLE WAGED FINALLY THE ASSAULTING ARMY WAS. DRIVEN FROM THE PALACE WITH LOSS OF SEVERAL OF THEIR NUMBERS. Constantinople, June 11. A desperate but unsuccessful attempt was made at midnight to rescue Abdul Hamid the deposed Sultan, from his guards at Salonica. The attempt made by the reactionaries failed of success because their plans had been betrayed. The conflict which followed waged for several hours, many of the assaulting party being killed. The defenders also lost several officers. Abdul is confined in a villa at Salonika with eleven of his "formerly large harem. 1 Tho African Buffalo. A wounded buffalo is vastly more dangerous when be runs away than when he charges, for In nine cases out of ten after a dash that may be for a few hundred yards or a mile he will revengefully circle back to an interception of his own trail, stand hidden in grass or thicket until his pursuer comes plodding along the trail and then charge upon him. Despite the fierce temper of a lone bull, his savage cunning and his great, charging bulk, I beiiev him much less dangerous than the Hon. for be has far less speed, lacks the lion's poisoned claws and is a much bigger target. This opinion is substantiated by the indisputable fact that at least ten men are killed or mauled by lion to one killed by buffalo. Edgar Beecher Bronson in Century. . Tho Temple of Zeus. . All that remains of the great temple of Zeus, which was 700 years in building, is' to be found about 150 yards from the foot of the Acropolis at Athens. The ruins consist of sixteen columns of the Corinthian order, six and one-half feet in diameter and sixty feet high. It was the second largest temple erected by the Greeks, one superior to it in size being the temple of Diana at Ephesus. According to a legend, its foundation was built by Dukalion, the Greek Noah, who from this point witnessed the waters of the flood subside. An opening in the ground is said to be the orifice through which the flood disappeared. V Amended.

James Shea, who comes from Vincennes. Regret the Move. The removal of Father Hoffman will be greatly regretted by Rev. Father Mattingly and the people of St. Mary's parish in general, where his labors for the past few years have been unceasing for the welfare of the people. He took a special interest in the young boys and men of the parish; organized the Y. M.

He found pleasure in visiting the sick, administering solace to bereaved families, giving advice in trouble and comfort in death.

COMMISSION GETS II SASSY LETTER

Governor Tells Railroad Tribunal It Cannot Construe The Crew Law. WILL RECEIVE A REPLY MARSHALL'S LETTER RESULT OF COMMISSION SHOWING CERTAIN VIOLATIONS THAT IT WOULD NOT PROSECUTE. Indianapolis, June 11. Governor Marshall has clashed with the railroad commission. He has written the commission a letter, telling them they have no right to construe the full crew law. Some days ago the commission announced Its construction of the law and pointed out instances In which lt would not Insist on the prosecutions of railroads for its violation. Governor Marshall tells the members they have no power to suspend the law, and inasmuch as it is a penal law they have no right to construe it so as to excuse violations. The letter Is sensational. The commission is preparing answer, which may also sizzle, somewhat.
