(By Hal Sheridan.)
New York, April 14. Ilob Edgren,
(porting editor of tho New York Even

.Willie Kitchie will find that he ban
Nome task on hand if he expect to dis
pose of Harlom Tommy Murphy ovor
the knockout-route in thoir scheduled
iitt-round match in Sun Francisco next
Friday evening. Commenting on tho
: event, Kdgren said: - -
"Hitehio may .find that knocking
Tommy Murphy out quickly i more of
a tack than he thought. Tommy Mur
phy is an .experienced ols-tima fighter.
He ha shown lome unexpected nigged
ness in all his long western fights.
Tommy always takea (rood care of him
self, ao it is quite possiblo that ho has
' not begun to 'go laek' evon though
lio haa been fighting for 14 years. ".

' New York Giants.
"Pokor," said McGraw, "is likely
to,' keep the players up all night.
' Checkers overwork their brains. Golf
dovolop tho muscles that lift Scotch
highballs, and they must also quit play
ing pool. There Is too much solid
ivory around the pool tables. "

"Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye th
Cherrian court for the county of Mar

persnant to adjournment." This was
the bailiff's cry in tho auditorium of
the promotion department of the Salem
Comniorcial club last night when Chas.
U MeNary, justice of the supreme court
walked forward to the bench where he
mas to preside in the case of the
King's High Court vs. Stanly Barton,
Frank Spears and 0. K. DeWitt, the de
fendants having pleaded net guilty to
the charge in an indictment returned
by th0 Cherrian grand jury of highball
robbery.
His Eminence, Judge MeNary, opened
the cane with a short but judicial ad
dress to the parties present about 70
Cherrians and tho prosecution of th
throe defendants began.
A Poor Defense.
There was practically no defon9
trfido by the culprits. They wero,
charged with holding up with deadlf
guns of uncertaia calibres M. L. Meyer

tended for the personal use of tho man
of the renowned "ChsrrinKO," a
rt . - -
circus or monstrous equipment, ana a
reputation throughout all America. Ad
missions of guilt were plain to bo seen
on the faces of the three quaking de
fendants. They turned a sickly hue
when the prosecuting attorney began
a scAthinB arraignment of their past
lives and the wretched highwaymen all
hut fainted awar when Judue .MoNar;',
in a clear, cold voice, pronounced the

King Uing of a receptacle for old
clothes commonly called a portmanteau,
believed by the behind named disclplna
of lieutenant Becker to contain the
proceeds of the sewer bond sale and
some of the good roada bonds, contrary
to the Kill's Bull and the teaching
of Rev. Marshall.
Vamals of the jury, there ia aa old

rTeg 'O My Heart," which will be

Monday, April 20, offers an excellent
illustration of what the public wants.

mand for this wild-fire success was to
great from all sections of the county
that Mr. Mlorosco found It necessary to
organise five touring companies. The
one that will be seen here ia callol

selected to eover all the important ter

Now harden yonr heads to sll that
