350 passengers and 400 tons of freight
destined for Dawson City, is In tho
hands of a United States deputy innr
fchal. When the boat was about to
sail tho passengers discovered that n
largo amount of their freight was to
be left on tho dock. They asked May
or Wood, of Seattle, who Is manager
of the boat, to explain The mayor
said that those who left provisions
would bo properly cared for and that
the goods would bo shipped on the
next bout.
This did not suit the passengers. Ar

mude a speech demnndlng that the
rights of those who had paid for tick
ets and freight bo conserved, Inci

What mother would turn her young

mothers allow
their daughters,
who are just com

of womanhood,
to proceed with

and advice all un

perils of this crit

Young women
at this time often
suffer from irreg
ularity and weak
ness which may
afterwards d e
velop into -dangerous
disease
and fill their
whole lives with
wretchedness,
It is a mother's
duty not to pass over such matters In
silence, but to promote her daughter's
womanly health and regularity by every
reasonable means.
These delicate ailments are easily over

While some clever boxers have ap
peared In Scranton during the past few
years, none In point of science and clev
erness, have equaled "Bobby" Dobbs,
of Minneapolis, nnd Hugh McWInters,
of Now York city, who are to meet In
a 20-round bout for n decision In Music
'BOBBY" DOBBS.
hall tonight. Dobbs Is admitted to be
one of the best known lightweights in
this country, If not In the whole world.
This Is a good deal to say of any light
er, but Its truth Is born out In this
clover colored man's record which ap
pears In nil the leading sporting publi
cations. McWInters, while not as well
known as Dobbs Is one of the coming
lightweights of this country nnd he has
proved It on more than one recent occa
sion. The signing of two such well known
men attests tho purpose of the Ameri
can Sporting club nnd Jack Skelly to
give to Scranton admirers of the pugil
istic art about the best that can be
afforded In that lino. The club has ol
ready given the Murphy-McDermott,
the Judgp-MeWllllanis, and the Burn-fcteln-Wright
affairs, three of the best
fights for a decision that have ever
been given In Scranton In a brief period
of time.
DOBBS' RECORD.
Dobbs has a record possessed by but
few if any, lightweights in the world.
Ue has had but two decisions against
him. Jim Bnrron got a decision over
him ns did Dick O'Brien, but In the
case of the former he was later defcut
ed by .Dobbs, most of whose victories
have been In finished battles. He has
an 11-round draw to his credit with
Charley Turner, the famous California
middle-weight; with' Dave Reese, S
rounds; nnd Billy Hill, tho "Picka
ninny." G rounds.
McWInters Is but 26 years old and
consequently cannot be expected to
have attained such repute as has Dobbs,
who if 30 years old, but the former nev
ertheless hn a record of which any
fighter might be proud. Scranton sports
will remember the surprise created not
very long ago when McWInters fought
his in-round draw with Kid Partland.
Previous to that time he had met many
clover men and given evidence that he
was a likely candidate for the front
ranks of lightweight pugilism. This
was made certain three weeks ago
when ho met Dobbs In a 20-round bout
In Brooklyn, and neither man was giv
en the decision. The pair had been
matched to meet Auz. 30, before tho
Greenpolnt club of that city, but they
finally agreed to settle their long dis
puted question of superiority in Scran
ton. This conclusion will bo to the
benefit of Scranton sports, who know
ti good fast bout when they see one.
BATTLES OF M'WINTERS
McWInters has met and defeated
Marty Gary, Jack Hogan, Tom McGow
an, Tom Morlarlty, Billy Lightfoot,
Frank Noedem, Joe Cutley, Frank
O'Brien, Tommy Gans, Pat O'Nell, and
Rudy Watson. McWInters is to fan
cied In Neu York city that Mathew
Kennedy, one of tho best known and
most reputable of sporting men In that
city ha become his financial 'backer.
He is here in the city and expects to se?
McWInters the victor In tonight's bout,
although Dobbs is n prime favorite.
Several good preliminaries have been
arranged. Probably the one that will
attract the most attention Is to be an
R-round bout between Pat Gibbons, of
Plttston, and Mike Kane, of Minooka,
two of the best 135-pour.d men In this
region. Gibbons has defeated everyone
in hl class iu and about Plttston.
Kane's cleverness is shown In the two
decisions he has secured over Steve
Judge. These two ni3n have each a
large personal following, and their bout
is creating as much anticipation as Is
the star event of tonight. A battle roy
al, somethlnc that all ring followers
delight to see, has been arranred for
five colored men.
The American Sporting club, which'
will conduct tho affair is not a tempor
ary organization. It proposes giving
thesa bouts at rsular Intervals dur
ing the fall and winter, and tho man
ager and matchmaker, Jack Skelly.can
not afford to present to Scranton people
anything but th be.it Iu the fistic line,
nnd the appearance of Dobbs and Mc
WInters Is a proof of this statement.
MURPHY WILL REFEREE.

REMOVAL SALE.
Our store lias been the great shopping center during
the past ten days. It will be greater than ever during the
next ten.
The prices we have placed on our stock to sell it,
preparatory to our removal to our new store, are the lowest
prices at which good dry goods have ever been sold in
Scranton. If you have not visited us yet, come at once ; if
you have, come again. There is always something that you
haven't seen, for in a large stock like ours, and in our lim
ited space, we can only display a small fraction of our
goods at a time.
We started out to sell this stock of dry goods, and to
make this sale the greatest sale you have ever known. We
