Victory of Johnson Over Ketchel Will Not Change the Plans of Jeffries.
SAYS HE WILL BEAT NEGRO
Queeostown, Oct. 18. When James J. Jeffries, the American heavy-weight pugilist, who Is a passenger on the steamer Lusitanla, bound for New York, after a Deriod of training In a suburb of Paris, heard of Jack Johnson's victory over Stanley Ketchel at San Francisco, be said that this In no wise would affect his plans. Ketchel he added, was only a middle weight and not by any means the best of the middfeweights. "Ketchel," continued Jeffries, "is trying to feed himself jp. to make tha heavy-weight class, but it will only weaken him. JohnBon Is not much of a fighter, and he never met a good man. His fight with Burns was no test. Burns is a newspaper fighter. "I can only hope," Jeffries went on "that Johnson will cover my money. I would not fight him If I did not think I could beat him." ' One of Jeff ilea's friends, who is traveling with him, remarked that the fight between Jeffries and Johnson
would be a joke. Jeffries now weighs 2.30 pounds, and he says he will fight at 210 or 212 pounds.

WILD ABOUT ADAMS
Pittsburg, Pa., Oct. 18. A subscription list has been started for Pitcher "Babe" Adams. By midnight the Pittsburg end had reached almost $500, and a similar sum was raised on
the trains coming from Detroit. The coin shower was resumed at daybreak, and by . evening it is thought the ball bugs of Pittsburg will have duplicated Adams's share of the world's series pool, almost $1,800.
BUSH ALWAYS GOOD
Danville, Ind., October 18. The first time Owen Bush, the fast young short stop of the Detroit Tigers ever had on a full base ball suit and played in a match game was in this tofn six years ago. He came here with a bunch of - youngsters from Indianapolis wearing knee pants. ' The team was called the Tuxedos and they made the old Danville Browns play all they knew how to defeat them. Later Bush came here to play short for the Indianapolis Meta and they won by a score of 7 to O. Bush made two hits, two runs, eight as
sists, no errors and had three stolen bases. Right then he was picked as a
comer.
Boston, Ind., Oct. 18. An attack
was made on the home of Mr. and Mrs George Taylor, with whom their daugh ter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Ever
ett Bradley live, by Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Bradley of Richmond, yesterday .afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Bradley had conio here to get their son, who is yet In his
teens, and who eloped recently to mar
ry his present wife who was Miss Cora Taylor, and who is several ears older than he. The attempt was unsuccessful and resulted in the fight. Af
fidavits will be sworn out for the arrest of Mr. and Mrs. Prank Bradley, it is said. It is said that the fight resulted after the son had refused to accompany his father back to Richmond by the father exercising his right of corporal punishment. With this the women folks, it is said became much enamored. They clinched, so it is reported, and afterwards, Mrs. George Taylor and her daughter, Mrs. Everett Bradley, came out ahead and assisted in driving the attacking Bradleys from the scene by the use of stones.
Mr. Taylor, it is' said took no part in the fight, but does not intend to allow the matter to drop. He went to Rich
mond today with the avowed purpose of seeking counsel and prosecuting the
attacking parties.
ELBERFELO TO GO
New York, Oct. 18. Norman Elberfeld will not be with the Highlanders
next season. It Is said that he has caused much friction in the team and has exhausted the patience of Manager Stallings. Elberfeld is still a fine player and a profitable trade can prob
ably be made for him. Even it the
Highlanders saw fit to retain him it
)s believed that he would have a hard time to keep short field out of Jack
Knight's grasp, as the latter played phenomenal ball In that position at the close of the . recent campaign and got deeply into the good graces of the
club officials. f
PLAYED IN THE RAIN. Boston, Ind., Oct IS. The game between the Waldorfs of Richmond and the local team resulted in a 10 to 9 victory for the locals. The game was played in a drizzling rain and not much interest was taken.

BERLIN ; LMoCrt bUREAU. A Municipal Institution That Hs Prmd Help to Workers. Germany, of all countries, seems t have gene forward halfway to met' the "problem of the Unemployed." "Ir 1907. through the Berlin Labor Ex change. 158.008 applicants for position at the exchange brought 110.015 en! plovers to that place' seeking help an finding places for 05,078 of these np pllcants. If the applicant for registration wer' a member of a trades union, no fee for registration was exacted, bis union paying a lump sum of $200 for it membership. If he were not a union 1st, bis fee was 5 cents for registrn
tion. The exchange occupies a huge four story building in the eastern part of the city, with current annual expense of $25,000.' Fifteen thousand dollars of this sum is contributed by the city The remainder Is supplied through trades unions' contributions and by th.
fees paid In by applicants.
The chief feature of the exchange
building Is the great assembly hall, nr ranged with comfortable benches where unskilled men. waiting for th
call of employers, may assemble In
comfort. Having his registration ticket, the applicant may have free use of the hall, and for the period of three
months its cheap canteen, its cheap
baths and cheap bootmaking and tailoring shops are available at nominal prices. Agencies for the skilled workmen are conducted by their respective trades anions. Workmen securing employment have paid only the three months' initial fee of 5 eents. while the employer securing help pays nothing. Altogether there are three general divisions of the unemployed as congregated In the exchange the unskilled men. the skilled workmen and the women applicants. Positions are offered the unemployed along the line of strict precedence. Only those present when the employer calls are considered. At the same time preference is givsn the married men over those that are unmarried. The German capital considers the municipal venture a success, as not
only Berlin employers, but employers
from the provinces, have been making free ue of ti. ttiiMnn.
Dashing into police headquarters about 1:30 o'clock Sunday morning, Edward Welsh, greatly excited and all
out of breath announced that a mur
der had taken place on South Fifth street and to send some one Quick to
the home of Frank Brooks. 215 South Fifth street before the murderer got
away. Welsh was in his shirt sleeves and was terribly nervous. He stated
that Mrs. Brooks bad been murdered In cold blood at her home. He declared that he jumped from the second story window and ran all the way to headquarters to get assistance in capturing the criminal. The man's startling announcement caused great consternation at headquarters. Patrolmen Menke and Longman hurriedly accompanied Welsh to the Brooks home, covering the distance in record breaking time, it is said. On their arrival at the place, Welsh dashed up the stairs and attempted to break down the door of Mrs. Brook's room where he protested she was being murdered. An investigation revealed the fact that no murder had taken place and that Welsh was suffering from delir
ium tremens. The man was finally qui
eted and returned to the police sta
tion where he was locked up. He continued has ravings throughout the day and night. In the city court this
morning Welsh was fined $5 and costs and was sent to the county jail, in
lieu of payment, for fifteen days
What strengthened the belief in the
minds of the police that a murder had
been committed was the fact that
man whose name could not be learned
witnessed Welsh jump from the sec
ond story window and accompanied
him to police headquarters where he
also insisted that a murder was being
committed at the Brooks home.

Organization Intelligently Directed His
CHaf Dependence.
Plainly is it the duty of men and women of labor to organize. What or
ganization has done, what it can do.
for the liumau family is so marked
that one Is amazed at the disinterest
edness of some of our people on the question. The success of labor organi
sations Involves the life of the nation. At no time In the history of the world
has organization been found more nec
essary for the preservation of the very
lire or the toller than today. A cer
tain class of employers not content
with the force of their own organise
tlon is invoking the aid of the courts,
and upon us devolves the duty of
maintaining and preserving such rights
as we now possess. To gain the attention of the public
and to secure and fasten public senti
ment we must give proof of mental and moral worth. In the individual we have that mental and moral force, but It stands for nothing in the person. We
must concentrate that power, and in centralizing It in and through organisation we are enabled to so direct it as to bring substantial results. In an industrial strife it Is no longer a question of endurance. Our opponents resort to measures less expensive and productive of results. The recent decision in the Gorapers-Mitchell-Morrison case plainly indicates that our opponents are using their intelligence and organization to a purpose. They have made a study of organisation, the power and effect of cobe-
siveness and resultant effect of intelli
gent direction or that organization Industrially and iiolitically. The duty of the wage earner is to organize, but that Is not all. He must carefully study the alms and objects of that organization and assist in its intelligent direction, whether such action
be upon the industrial or political field
from whatever point his interest is
attacked, there he must be found, using
wisaom and judgment to resist any en croachment upon his rights.
xne laborer In bis organization Is fighting for the rights of man. and since the dnwn of day it has been a
long and bitter struggle, requiring
courage, fortitude and sacrifices to
reach our present status. When en
gaged in an Industrial conflict the men
of labor willingly and cheerfully make
auch sacrifices as they believe will contribute in achieving the desired end. When the conflict Is extended to the
political field by the captains of indus
try It la plainly and clearly the duty of
the hour for the men of labor to arm
themselves with the ballot and direct
it In a manner that will bring victory to organized labor. It Is the duty of the hour for men of labor to organise and prepare to meet opponents ou the industrial field and clothe themselves with the robes of citizenship to do battle In the political arena. We should know the power of co-heslveness-at all times, industrially and politically. Jerome Jones in American Federation 1st.

Prima Donna Likes Prize Fight Better Than Suffragette Parade

Chicago, Oct. 18. Mme. Schumann-
Heink says she would rather see
prize fight than a suffragette's parade
and would .rather hear the prattle o
her own children than the cheers of
thousands.
After her concert at Orchestra Hall
yesterday afternoon she discussed al
most everything but music, which was positively tabooed. Her inquisitor had been informed at the door that she
did not care to discuss her concert tour
It was suggested that she might dis
cuss woman's rights or the recent
heavy-weight championship fight.
A rippling laugh was heard from b?
hind the door and the prima donna
danced out, flourishing her hands in
the face of her astonished visitor.
Come in, and I will talk prize fight
with you," she said. "I know something besides music, you see. That is
the reason I like Chicago newspaper men. In other cities they send up cards, bow and scrape as though I wer? the only prima donna, while here you rush in and talk fast about such jolly
things.
"Now. I never saw a prize fight, but I would rather see one than watch a lot of women who ought to be at home tending their babies while they are marching about In the mud waving red flags and screaming about women's rights. "Women, if they only knew it have more power today than men. What a godly gift it is to have children to raise into men and women! I have eight children and five grandchildren, an3 therein feel that I have more power
than any man living. "Chicago has heard so much of your children. Why do you not bring them with you, so that we may know them as we do their mother T' she was asked. "They are where they belong in
school and at their lessons. Tour
school system is the greatest in the world, and it is what makes America
truly American. My children shall go
to your great public schools and be real children to grow Into real American
men and women. "I never want io leave America
again. I win live another twenty years, and then America will rule the worhl She will not own the continents, but your language will be the language of
the world, and your great energy and cleverness will make vou nrartleal'v
rulers.
I shall return to Chicago when I
finish my tour. Chicago met me at my first grand opera appearance in
America. It was at the Auditorium. Nov. 7, 1808. Nver will I forget the
welcome I received, and your applause
still rings in my ears."
Mme. Lillian Nordlca .who intro
duced Mme Schumann-Heink: to the
music lovers of America, was in a box at yesterday's recital. Mme. Gadski was also seated la" a box, but did not meet Mme. Schumann-Heink.
