The wrestle between Dr. R. P. Roller. the youthful crack of Seattle and larmm Burn, the hero of 6.(n mat victories at Seattle last week continues the topic of greatnst Interest In western sporting dhole. From a graphic? aoomint of tha match by in Seattle Times it la evident tho old Par mer lost only because of the superior strength and weight and youth of his opponent. Roller Is a young man end weighs 303 pounds, while Rums Is nearlng So and weighs 17n. Tho Time sy Uoteh never handled Roller a easily aa did Burns. The first fall. Roller won In 66 minutes and 16 seconds, and he once wrestled with Ootrh for an hour without a fall. Here are soma interesting excerpts of the wrestle from Uie Timea: Roller and Burn drew a house that totalled something over $3.800. 'Tha article of agreement called for 76 per cent to the winner ann a jicr cent to tne loser. Each man put up $!V0O as a side bet, so that. Roller wnn about $3,000 for his night work. Roller began the match weighing M2 pounds and lost seven pound In the struggle. Burns weighed' a oout 170 pounds and Inst ftve pounds. Roller says Iruma tired him more than arty man he aver met with hi continual tugging at the muscles of hi arm. Burn say he lost because .he was forced to carry around 2U0 pounds of weight for forty-five minutes of tha first bout, and his age made It Impossible for him to come back strong. Burns says Roller must devote all of his time t training If he Is to become a cham pion, and declares the Seattle man Is only a shell of what he should be In strength. "Wrlh three weeks In which to train I could give Roller a tougher go." all Burn thia morning, ' booa.ua my endurance would be better. But, he la a strong young fellow and be might beat me at that. 1 have no kick coming for 1 lost on the Square." . 'If I ever.wTeatle for the championship, I want Farmer Burns to train and handle me," say Roller, "for he know more about tho game than any man I ever met." I Plain old Farmer Burn haa a hbat of friend In 6eattle, men who .knew him back In Iowa and Nebraska, and they rose to a man and gave him a tremendous greet ing when he walked quietly on the stage and sat down In the corner, ills friend kept yelling until th old timer got up and ducked his head a couple of times. He was plainly pleased at hi reception. Filling thoe tremendou lungs with an Intake vf breath that sounded like th x hause of . a mountain engine, the Farmer began shouting at the top of hla voice to the effect that he had 'come a long ways to rassel a young fellow that I believe Is one of the best In tho country because Frank Ootcrt told ma so. I am getting old now,,T said tha Farmer, "and aomo of these days one of them young fellows will get me, bnt I'll guarantee he'll know he's been In a rasaelln' match." The prophecy, of the old man came true quicker, perhaps, than he expected, but he took his defeat In manly fashion and bad plenty of wind left aiter losing to tell the crowd that he had mat a better man and had.no excuses to make for his de feat. Despite the difference In the also and age of the men. there were those on the stage who felt sorry for Roller before the strug gle began. He la a vey nervous, high strung man, and until he gets hold of his opponent lie is always worried. When h gets into action, however, this nervousness wears off and he gets better as the bout progresses. Roller believes firmly that he met ona of the great wrestlers of the world last night, and until he got his hands on Burns' flesh he was very nervous. Burns, on the other hand, was aa stolid as an Indian. He aixed up the house with a practiced eye and was aboolutely uncon cerned, so far as outward appearances go, about the outcome of tha match. In hi time he haa met hundreds of local chanii plons, and he felt that he had nothing to fear from a wrestler who waa absolutely unheard of In the. game until a year and a half ago. When lie got prominence by standing off Frank Ootch for an hour. Roller had Burns by the toe and wa shoving his right leg back and up until the strain must have been terrific. Bud-i denly Roller shifted and got a crotch and Jialf-nelson. and the way the features of the old man twisted and twitched It could b seen that he was In a bad wa:. "Lay there. Doc," wa the advioe shouted try the Seattle man's second, and lie there he did until Burns' shoulders were pressed fairly on the mat. The old man stretched out and relaxed "like a tired child, while the crowd got up on Its legs and howled with glee. Roller had won the first fall after fifty-five minutes and fifteen seconds of hard work. After a wait of ten minutes old man Burns was the first to appear. He had a wet towel on his head and ne tooaea fresh enough to wrestle another hour. But right them appearances were deceitful. Tli-old man said after the match that h- I feeling Ms age and that he could not come back as strong for the second whirl as the first. Roller's youth and strength told from' that time nn and the Seattle man won the seeond fall and the match In. half tho time It took htm to get the first. Burns knew he could not lsst long, so he put out a hot pace right from tho start. He handled Roller easier than Ootch ever did and he made the ScHttle man back up. something that Gotch did not do. Burns got a full nelson on Roller once and the crowd sat un expectantly, only to see Roller rise like a giant, with Burrie hang ing on his back, and mn half way across the stage. He dropped like a log and shook his M)dy- until the hold was loosened. But Bums was working now like the old mas ter that he Is. As fast as Rr Her broko one hold Burns had him In another, and some of the prettiest wrestling of the evening was seen. , WITH TUB BOWLERS.

Ins Behind III ATOTved ftapaMMst mt Bryan a ( leak tm Carer tbe Corpora tlen Skeleton That the demand on the part of demo crats for a direct primary to select dele gate to the county convention is a direct lap at State Committeeman George Rogers la admitted by democrata who are trying to Mp In the bud Roger' aspiration to be a delegate to the national convention. Since the Dahlmart Democracy1 endorsed Joseph Hayden for delegate at Urge and Rogers for. district delegate two or three weeks ago opponent of the latter have been busy. So far, according to democrat who are In touch With th situation, there Is no hostility lo Mr. Ilayden. but there Is a considerable faction of the party with the nucleus at the Jacksnnlan headquar ter who are out after Rogers' scalp, and they make no bones about It, either. v Tha petition asking the county commit tee to call a primary first made It ap pearance at Jacksonlan headquarter In the hand of some of Rogers' enemies. Some of the democrat who have dlcussed th situation have declared the leaders ap parently had it fixed to send Rogors to the convention and the only way to defeat the move was by an appeal to the rank and file of the party by means of a primary election. Incidentally there 1s cropping out some opposition to the leadership of Mayor Datu ra an and some of the others who stand high with him "Best Element' Gat I sed, "The best element or the party la opposed to Roger," said a prominent democrat of the Jacksonlan faction Tuesday. "Those of us who believe In slmon pure democracy think he la too close to the brewer and the frafichlsed corporation to be a leader In the party that has always stood for the people against the Interest. It may be a losing fight, because Rogers' bscklng Is welt organised, but some of us are going to make a fight In the Interests of purity hi the party. We are going to try to throw him down. We may fall, but w can't sit by and aee things go as they have been going without tnaklng some resistance. "Tha trouble 1s the Dahlman fellows have taken thj name of Bryan to' hide behind. They announce themselves as the official representatives of Bryan In Omaha and If anyone opposes them he la pointed out a being hostile to' the party leader. They use him as a cloak and he stand for it because he can't kick a man who comes to him offering assistance. There Is going to be a flglit on, though, before this la over." Chairman Weaver of the county com mittee says he ha not received the- peti tion to call""the primary, but he was ex pecting it daily. MAN'S HEAD ALMOST SEVERED Walter Bell, Colore.

Bell Is at the St. Joseph hospital In a precarious condition, while the SVoman who did the rutting is a prisoner at tho police station cliurgod with cutting with Intent to kill.

CORNERSTONE BOX AT LAST Receptacle I ndrr Ol HI. Pkliomena's Cathedral I nearth. After Forty Years. The cornerstone of the old St. Philo mcna s alhcdrul al Ninth and Harney streets wa discovered at the southeast corner of tho old foundation about I o'clock Tuesday morning, with lis little tin box firmly embedded therein ince the laying of the stone forty-one year ago. The box was found by J. P. Conley, who has the contract for the demolition of th biil'ding. - Tho box was opened In the presence of a m-tiihtr-of workmen and 45 cent In mall coins thickly covered with mildew wa re vealrd. In the box wa apparently an en velope froxeti to the bottom and from v. 1 lcli every trace aof writing hd been cbllterated by time. These coins and the envelope constituted the entlr content of the box. Mr. Conley took possession of the coins to preserve them aqd turn thein over to the Catholic church authorities. The paper or envelope was left In tha box and the box was rloaed and replaced in th cornerstone and tl -J church authorities notified of th find. Father lrnou of Et. Magdalena'a church wa the first prelat notified of the dis covery and he wei.t down to tha ruin of the cathedral to take possesion of th box. The box w aa found real Ing In a aquai collar of 'sllmrstone which l ad betn cut as a receptacte for th box, which is about 6x5x$ inches In site. This, with the box, had been cemented to another stone, wllh another stone ovtr th top, thus comyrli- Ing a close, alr-tlght receptsrls. The hex was fastenrd merely with a . hasp and staple. There la. a suspicion among the CaUiollc authorities that th box had been rlffed of It contents shortly after it was placed In the cornerstone In the year 18i7. Ther Were no evidences that the box or tone had been trifled wltli In recent years, It was removed with the greatest difficulty, the cement covering having hardened over It. Father Stenson took possession cf the box and It Is now at St. Magdalene's church, Nineteenth and Dodge streets.

Keep them on your farm to share an income that is already rdo" smaM, or let them hire out to a neighbor to work all their lives for some one else ? FerhapMhey are thinking of going to the city to join in the mad rush for existence. Why don't you send them to the Southwest where in a few years each of them can become independently rich? It will take only a few dollars to start them good land is so cheap in the Southwest, If they are hustling fellows, they will oon be doipg so well you'll want to sell out and join theiry It's much easier to make a pood living in the Southwest than in " the older states. You can get from 10 to 20 acres in the Southwest for the price of one where you live and the land is just as good. You can raise as big or bigger crops there and can get better prices for all '' you raise. Markets are good and schools and churches are abundant. The climate is healthful the summers no warmer than elsewhere - and the winters are so mild no heavy shelter is needed for stock they -have good range the entire year.
