lLT?.4i flM?ri THE RALEIGH EVENING TIMES : 'FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1908. PAC3 THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OF DIAMOND AND RiNG (By Leased Wire to The Times.) Ban Francisco, Cal., Feb. 28. Abe Attell and Eddy Kelly, the Buffalo f satherweight, will meet before the Occidental Athletic Club tonight for the featherweight championship: Jack G lea son is promoting the match and though it has been on only for a week a good house is expected. Attell rules 2 to 1 favorits. Kelly has been on the coast for the past few months and Is the most" talked of eastern boxer on the ground. He has been after Attell for two years and when they finally agreed to fight Kelly wanted the winner to take all the money but Attell refused. Billy ""Nolan has taksn charge of Kelly and he is working at Han Ion's villa. Kelly has made a great impression with the fight fans and not less than two hundred people visited the training camp each day this week. Kelly is a clever lad with two good hands and is never Idle a minute. The men have agreed to weigh in at H o'clock and have each posted S5.000 for weight and appsarance. Hilly Nolan tried to get Attell to light, winner take all and $5,000 on the side but Abe only smiled at this offer and demanded $2,500 win, lose or draw. Billy Nolan then agreed to make up the-$2,500 if Attell's end did not reach that mark. . Kelly has not made t tie impres sion t hat lie is as clever as Attell but his ability to exchange hot. . punches has liiada him a favorite witli tin local fans. He Is built on the lines of a rugged fighter and At tell makes no secret of the fa;t thai lie has a light on his hands. that the pitcher must not discolor a new ball by rubbing It on the ground. He will have to . use his glove or nothing. A sacrifice hit was en larged to take in a caught fly on' which a base-runner scores. Three rules adopted by the nation al commission last November were formally accepted. One had to do with the measure that whenever a minor league-player has been pur chased by a major league club such player cannot revert to the minor league club the year following the purchase, unless all the clubs of both major leagues waive claim to him. The commission decided that rule 36 did not apply to players purchased in 1907, that the date of its going into effect is deferred a year. ' The national league schedule was given out, but outside of that there was nothing of moment at the meet ing of either the . National or the American league. Both leagues wound up their meetings. 9 couple of changes In the playing rules, neither of which has any actual bear ing on the game itself, were the most Interesting transactions next to adopting the schedule. Like the American league arrange ment of dates, the National league schedule begins on April 14, and takes in the first week in October. The two schedules govetail nicely. This is the year for the eastern teams of the National league to go west first, doing this after they have met one another in the east. TAWNEY FINDS HIMSELF APtiWER DANGER LURKS IN NEGLECT (By Leased Wire to The Times) Washington, D. C, Feb. 28.-James A. Tawney of Minnesota, stands before the country today as chairman of the most powerful and influential commit tee in the house of representatives, for the committee on appropriations is now recognized , as the head of the list while the committee on ways and means has lost the prestige it so long enjoyed. This change Is the direct result of the defeat of the committee on ways and means yesterday when It tried to pet through the house a resolution that its quarters should not be changed I from the capitol to the new house of-j Hoe building. But while the defeat of Ways and means yesterday was the final blow the prestige and Importance of that committee, have, been on the wane for the past ten years, while the author ity and weight of appropriations has been on the upward trend. It was originally the. privilege and duty of the chairman of ways and means to submit to the house at the. beginning of every session the state ment of th3 estimated revenues for the ensuing fiscal year and to make a fore raft of -what policy must be pursued to meet the revenues and keep the ex penditures of the government within its resources. Now, however, the man who makes that statement is Chair man Tawney of appropriations. Since the Dingley tariff law was framed, ways and means has been on the decline partly because it would not exercise all Its prerogatives and partly because the members of the house scrambled for places on appro priation. .

Wisconsin made the proposi tion that Pennsylvania in case of a : lie between Chicago and themselves should go west and participate In a three cornered match for the championship. New York, Feb. 28. That a virus inducing insanity may be communi cated through the bite of an Insans person as the virus of hydrophobia is communicated through the bite of a mad dog, is the belief of the friends of Nellie Halpin, a baautiful young woman, who has just been committed to Bellevue Hospital for examination as to her mental con dition. In October, 1903, while acting as a nurse In ..the' King's Park Insane Hospital on Long Island she was bit ten by an insane patient, and has since shown traces of mental de rangement. Recently she has developed a hal lucination that she is married to one of the doctors ,of the King's Park Hospital staff, and that there Is a conspiracy on foot to murder him. Magistrate Walsh was surprised at the beauty and refinement of the young woman, who answered to the name of Nellie Halpin when she was brought before him today. She was dressed entirely in black, and ex plained that she was in mourning for her husband. 'A few questions sufficled to con vince the magistrate that Nellie Hal pin was a fit subject for alienists, and he signed an order committing her to the Bellevue. "My sister," said Hannah Halpin, "went to King's Park Asylum after leaving school, took a nurse's course and was graduated. She then secured a position in the asylum. Up to the time she was bitten by one of the patients she was as healthy mentally and physically as any girl in New York. Nothing was thought of the bite 'at the tima. Tho physicians at the hospital cauterized the wound and It healed up. Some Hot Ball Grounders.

Most people seem to regard a cold as of slight importance; annoying, per haps, but requiring po attention. They overlook the fact that a cold, with the irritating cough attending it, weakens the organs affected, and thus make It more difficult for them lo withstand attack. Virgin Oil of Pine (pure) heals and strengthens the lungs and bronchial organs, affording almost instant relief to a cough, and will break up a cold in 24 hours. It Is a combination of the active principles' of forest trees, .nd possesses all the healing and medicinal properties for which the pines are fa mous..
