j WILL WELSH STOP FltiHT
Bettors Are Greatly Disturbed Over
New Question
Havana, April 3.—A new j>oint was
. raised in the Johnson Wiliard fight talk
J yesterday and the betting element dis
cussed it seriously. It was this: Can
Referee Welsh stop the fight if Willard |
is badly cut up and staggering blindly
around the ring?
Both Jack Curley, Willard's man
ager, and Tom Jones, piloting the white
hope, registered emphatic denials. They
declared Welsh had been selected be
cause he had never 'been known to stop
a fight. There is no danger, according
to Curley and Jones, that Willard's
1 chances ot going the entire distance
will be spoiled by Welsh if his face is
i being ribboned by Johnson's blows,
i Notwithstanding this assurance the
fV'illard bettors were much worried.
; They fear that the negro may slarfh
away at the white man until the
Havana police enter the ring and call
a hautt. Curley pointed out that the
, Havana police have done a bull fight or
two and never took an active interest in
:he prevention of bloodshed. Neverthe
less the men putting the coin on Wil
, lard to stick for the entire distance car
ried furrowed brows.

e-xpresstvl his de-sire of having the win

''The people of the West are hungry

great expense and trooble to entertain
the thousands t'hronging to San Fran
cisco. Naturally, they desire to see the
world's champion team there next fall.
"I shall never consent to having the
pennant winners of the league meet
there after the regular world's series
games are over. Neither can tihe world's
series be held there, as this would not
be fair to the , uiblic of tihe cities that,

Says Negro Champion Will Win From

New York. April 3. —This is how
Bob Pitzsimmons predicts the outcome
of the Havana tight Monday and his
comparison of the two contenders for
the world's heavyweight championship:
• • Johnson will beat Jess Williard in
four rounds if he wants to. Willard will
have rhv advantage of youth and rugged
strength, but his advantage will be
more than offset bv the champion's
-wonderful ring knowledge and superior
experience. The cow puncher has a
hard bunch, but he won't be able to
land it on the negro."

a final gift Lard Ashleigh presents his
daughter with the famous Ashleigh dia
mond necklace. As Lord and Lady
Ashleigh cannot leave England at the
present time they send I .en or a, Ella's
personal attendant, and tha maid's hus
band, lan MacDougal, Imtler at Ham
bliu House, to accompany the girl to
New York. Six months, pass delightful
ly for the young Englishwoman. At
last she is having her fill of music.
Next morning the hotel at which they
are staviug is aroused by Lenora's wild
shrieks of alarm. The hallmeu, rush
ing in, find Ella's body upon the floor
and the famous diamonds missing. The
maid is hysterical. Inspector French, )>f
the police detectives, is called but cau
make nothing of the affair. He calls
in the services of Sauford Quest. The
criminologist traps the maid into an
expression of terror and informs her
that she must go to his office. She
tries to communicate with MacDougal,
but Quest interferes.
By means of hypnotism Quest draws
from the girl a confession that the
crime was committed bv MacDougal,
that he took the jewels and that she
was to meet him, and escape with him
to South America. Satisfied *hy her
story and manner that she is merely a
tool of the stronger-minded MacDougal.
Quest turns the girl loose, after com
manding her to return to his study
with the jewels at 7 p. m.
She joins MacDougal in their ren
dezvous. Quest has tracked her aud, by
means of a trap, is thrown by Mac-
Dougal into the cellar. Then the vil
lain turns on a poisonous gas to stifle
the criminologist. The power of Quest's
suggestion comes over the receptive
mind of Lenora. She mechanically obeys
his takes up the jewels and
leaves the rendezvous, going straight
t*> his study. MacDougal has discovered
her absence and that of the jewels. He
suspects that he has been double-eross
ed ami swears he will get her yet, since
Quest is done for. But Quest is not
done for. Jle has a little instrument in
his hand attached bv wires to capsules
of Anishidytc. Anishidvte's most val
uable quality is that it exerts a tre
mendous force only in the direction to
wards which it is pointed. By the aid
of this explosive Quest escapes and re.
turns to his office to ffnd lenora al
ready there. Seeing she is an excel
lent subject, he ventures another ex
periment; that of electro-thought trans
ference.
Before a highly sensitized mirror he
seats the girl an 1 gently puts her in a
state of hypnosis. A paper-thin steel
baud is fitted around her temples. This
band is connected through a scries of
coils with the mirror by a fine wire,
through which runs a high charge- of
electricity. The hypnosis induces per
fect mental concentration. The crimi
nologist then commands the girl to ob
serve by means of telepathy what Mac-
Dougal is doing. Anxiously, Quest
watches the mirror. For a moment
nothing happens. Then its surface
seems ruffled and slowly there emerges
from the grayness a scene showing the
interior of a low groggery. MacDougal
enters, confers with the proprietor and
is directed to a room where, for a little
while, he can be <afe from the police.
In the little attic MacDougal throws
down his hat and swears by all the
gods he knows to get even" with Le
nora. The experiment is finished. Quest
quickly brings the girl back to full
consciousness and turns her over to his
assistant, Laura.
A week passes. MacDougal threat
ens Ijenora in a notemnd Quest decides
to\draw him at once into the trap.
Hypnotizing the girl lie bids her lay
her head upon her arms on his table.
From the window he has seen MacDou
gal approach stealthily. Quest and his
men apparently leave the house. Mac-
Dougal creeps in. He sees th e bowed
figure in the half-light bringing a
heavy blackjack down upon the head of
the figure. The next instant the lights
flash up. MacDougal is handcuffed and
Lenora, frightened and trembling, is
led in from another room.
MacDougal stares at her, his throat
contracting. Then he looks toward the
table. A detective is picking up t"he
dummy figure. The black wig drops to
the floor. A steel rod shows above
the dummy hand. MacDougal, the clev
er criminal, has been caught by a trick.
L«ord Ashleigh arrives to find his
daughter's slayer in the law's hands.
He demands also the arrest of Lenora
as an accomplice of MacDougal, but
Quest, knowing well the American law,
that u wife cannot testify against h«r
husband, and wishing to keep the girl
as an assistant, persuades Lord Ash
leigh that she was only a tool of the
real criminal.
And down in South America Profes
sor Edgar Ashleigh, anthropologist, a
twin brother of ,lird John, is caring
for his fever-stricken servant, John
Craig. Theii~researches, through the
dense jungles have led them into dan
gerous climates and Craig has suc
cumbed. Ashleigh decides that the
man will not die and leave! him alone
for a moment. The fever-crazed brain
has but one thought, apparently. Cun
ningly waiting till the scientist has
gone from the tent, the servant feels
under his pillow and brings out a small
black box. With glazed eyes staring,
he fondles the box and then hides it
once more.—Adv. *

Seo a whole town dynamited, a vol
canic earthquake extraordinary, a won
derful drawing power.
A synopsis of the story of "The
Spoilers," written by ilex Beach, tut*
author:
Glenister and Doxiry, co-owners of
the "Midas," the richest mine in Alas
ka. after celebrating their good fortune,
lea vt Nome tu spend the winter in tihe
"States," but before leaving Glenister
arrives at an understanding with and
bids good-bye to Uherry Malotte, a
dance-hall girl, who has become inter
ested in him. lW»re their return to
Alaska in the following spring a plot
is hatched in Washington, P. C'., to
Juggle the Alaskan land laws in such
a manner as to rob all the rich miners
of their property, and to that end n
corrupt Judgi is appointed, with in
structions to obey the orders of Alex
McNamara, the genius of the entire
conspiracy.
The is dispatched to Nome at
once, but on the eve of sailing from
Santtle he is taken ill turd is forced
to entrust certain important documents
to his niece, Helen Chester, who thus
becomes the inuoceivt agent of the con
spirators. Helen sails, but en route to
Nome smallpox breaks out on the ship
and she is threatened with thirty (lavs'
quarantine. She escapes with the as
sistance of Olenister and Dextry. The
two men are ignorant of the nature of
Helen's errand, and gallantly fight and
defeat her pursuers, then smuggle her
on board their own ship and protect
her until she arrives at Nome.
In due time Judge Stilmau and Me-
Naniarn arrive in Nome and, with the
help of Struve's rascally firm, begin
their machinations. The new faction
shortly assumes control of sll the - mines,
including the "Midas." and Olenister,
because of his love for Helen, prevents
the miners from using violence against
Judge Still man and prevails upon them
to let the law take its course. Cherry
Malotte, the beautiful dance-hall girl,
returns from Dawson Cify, discovers
Olenister's love l'or'Helen and deter
mines to combat it. 111 this she is as
sisted by the Broncho Kid, a .uambler
and an outcast, who has recognized in
Helen Chester his own sister, whom he
had not seen since boyhood, aud who
misinterprets Olenister's feeling for
Helen. Olenister and Dextry find that
the Nome court will grant.them 110 re
lief aiul decide to send their lawyer,
Bill Wheaton. back to San Francisco
with an appeal to the Federal courts.
To secure money for this purpose they
arrange to robe the sluices of their own
mine, which they succeed in doing, but
are saved from capture by Helen.
Wheaton returns from Snn Francisco
with a writ from the Federal court,
which Btillmaii refuses to recognize,
thus making plain the nature of the
conspiracy. Becoming fearful of out
right violence, McNamara undertakes
to remove the gold dust from the Midas
and other mines to a place of greater
safety, but Glenister and his friends
storm the bank aild are prevented from
taking forcible possession of the gold
only bv the timely arrival of troops.
Meanwhile Glenister becomes con
vinced that "Helen has become a con
scious accomplice of "The Spoilers''
and intends to marry McNamara; so,
in a reckless mood, he spends a desper
ate night in the northern gambling hall
playing faro. The Broncho Kid, who is
dealer, plots to ruin Glenister with the
assistance of Cherry as "case-keeper."
At the crisis of the game, when his
money is gone, Glenister wagors his in
terest in the "Midas" and is pre
vented from losing only by Cherry's
declaration that "the cases are wrong."
Cherry saves Helen from a drunken
miner, and, learning her identity,
prompts her to suspect the truth of the
situation in which her uncle figures.
Realizing the great wrong that she has
helped to do, Helen undertakes to reme
dy it. With the aid of Cherry Malotte,
Glenister makes good his flight, sum
mons his friends and decides to make
an end of of the looting of the mines
bv destroying them with dynamite.
Wrapped in a world of mystery a*d
uncertainty, Helen appeals to McNa
mara's accomplice, Struve, who offer*
to 4jut her in possession of the truth
if she will go with him that nigiht to
a distant roadhouse for supper.
The miners dynamite the "Midas"
and defeat their enemies, when Glenis
ter hears of Helen's danger and rides
headlong to her rescue. He arrives
only to find Struvr badly wounded and
to.hear that Helen has gone away with
the Broncho Kid' Heedless now of all
save Helen's safety, Glenister rides into
town and there encounters "McNamara
at Struve's cffice. The two men fight
a terrific hand-to-hand battle, in which
Glenister triumphs.
Wheaton arrives in time to effect the
arrest of the conspirators on instruc
tions from the Federal court and Helen
produces the proofs of guilt which she
had secured from Struve. Justice is
done and Helen confesses her love for
the man she had helped to wrong.

David Warfleld
David Warfleld's forthcoming en
gagement at the Majestic theatre on
Thursday evening, April 15, will be his
only appearance in this city in "The
Auctioneer," as plans are now under
way for his appearance in New York
next season in n new play. The charm,
the beauty, the deeply impressive
quality of" David Warfleld's acting,
carried to his audience through his
persuasive and commanding personal
ity, are qualities in his art that long
since established him as the foremost
of American actors. As Simon Levi in
"The Auctioneer," it is conceded that
the Warfleld personality in all its
tenderness and strength, is revealed
to the best possible advantage.—Adv.*
At the Orpheum
A bill that with all sincerity could
be called one of the very best of the
season, will leave the Orpheum after
to-day's performances. With Henriet
ta Crosman as its bright star, the bill
«is replete with clever and varied tal
ent.
Three old time favorites, in new
acts, are due at the Orpheum on Mon
day. Chief of them is no less than
Sam Mann, the celebrated character
comedian, who was at the Orpheum a
year or two ayo in "The New Lead
er," easily the biggest comedy hit of
the Orpheum's career. Mr. Mann this
year has the' support of an excellent
vast in presenting "Lots and Lots of
It," said to be as clever as anything
this comedian has attempted. Another
of the favorites is Trovoto, the violin
ist with the wiggly eyes. Trovoto has
been around the world since he was at
the Orpheum and proved popular
everywhere. He still makes his eyes
say what his violin can't. And another
duo that will be readily recalled are
Diamond and Brennan, the pretty girl
and the eccentric coniedian, who are
this season presenting a new comedy
skit with music called "Nifty Non
sense." V
Jim Diamond was the long, lanky
and exceedingly eccentric comedian,
who just kept the house in constant
laughter all the time. Other big names
are listed in the new week's attrac
tions. some of which are just as im
[Kirtant, and which include the Three
Jafrns; Conley and Webb; Alf James
Holt, and Bradley and Norris. —Adv.*
At the Colonial
One of the breeziest and most pop
ular comedies that has been seen at
the Busy Comer is called "Black and
White Review," a very- unique and
pretentious comedy and singing turn
that Colonial patrons have enjoyed im
mensely. Four girls and three men
present it and encores are in order at
each performance. Three other stand
ard Keith attractions are irfiluded on
| the same bill. Huling's Seals, a fine
■ Keith aquatic noveltv, will bo the
bright particular hit of the bill for
i the first half of next week. This at
, traction should prove very interesting
i it is declared to be the most won
: derful seal attraction in vaudeville.
["Hose of Panama," a great musical
I comedy attraction with pretty girls,
pretty scenery and good comedians,
i will be the attraction during the last
j half.—Adv.*

The Pipe Organ With the Human
Voice
The new $25,000 Hope-Jones unit
pipe organ orchestra has been' aptly
called the pipe organ with the human
voice for the reason that the operator
can, by means of its many controls
reveal the same sensitive feeling as
an artist upon his violin, regulating
the various shades of expression at
will. All the different kinds of music
al instruments are at the command
of the oj>erator of this wonderful mu
sical marvel. This pipe organ
leds a charm to the pleasure of see

"The Exploits of Elaine," a great se
rial story now appearing in the Star-
Independent, featuring Arnold Daly,
