Little Ulck Hyland Is angry at Clarence English. Dick and Geo. Decker were to fight at Omaha on the fourth but because the $500 guarantee was not in the house, Dick wouldn't don the nilts. He lays the blame for the small at- tendance on English, who. he says, knocked the match so thoroughly and consistently that he practically ?polled It. Hyland and "Red- headed" MeCllntlc are in Chicago. Tlv Keeling, who has always bossed Jimmy Brltt's camps, is at It again, getting the Native Son Into shape to lick the Dane. Krel- tug now claims to have his man de- veloping a block that will with- stand all the Battler's wallops. Jimmy and the Dane are due to do battle on July 31.

Sealer and Louder are matched to tight the latter part, of this month. Louder has been over from Great Britain only a year. He Is said to be very clever.

It was last October that Florence Schenck first met Chas. H. Wilson. He was in charge of the Vanderbilt horses then. She was an enthusias- tic equestrienne herself, and their friendship developed rapidly. October 19, 1906, she declares, they were married. Later they went to Kit rope. Wilson denies the mar- riage but will say nothing more. Miss Schenck declares that on 1 occasion, when they were dining with the Vanderbilts, Mr. Vander- bilt read aloud from a newspaper an announcement of her engage- ment to Lieut en lit Aahton, of the United States army, and that Wil- sou became so excited he dropped a plate onto the floor. Later, she declares, Wilson demanded that she cancel her engagement to Lieu- tenant Asbton, and that she did so, becoming the "wife" of Wilson soon after the close of tho Norfolk horse show. "My life is wrecked," moans beautiful Florence Schenck; but she is going back lo Norfolk, se- cure in the love of her proud fath- er, to face whatever embarrass- ment may confront her snd what- ever criticism there may be from the frlonds over whom ah* once reigned as queen. SPOKANE PRESS, JULY 16, 19D7 PROF. CHAS. S. HOWE IN DIAGRAM SHOWING HOW CANALS OF MARS APPEAR THROUGH MIGHTY TELESCOPE I "Astronomer Perclval Lowell, at I his observatory in Flagstaff, Ariz., has shown by his maps that the mountain peaks are snow-capped in the winter, and in the spring the water flows down the valleys into canals that are 50 miles wide, and then vegetation springs up. He calls these streams canals, not because they are artificial, but be- cause the Martian waterways run in a straight line to the oceans in- stead of meandering, as ours do. "Until our telescopes are In- creased in power many fold, our determination of the physical geo- graphy of Mars are at a standstill, but with the spectroscope much valuable information is being ga- thered concerning her composition. "If Mars is Inhabited, and we of the earth should want to communi- cate with her, It would be done with flashes of light, but this would be unintelligent because of want of a code, and the impossi- bility of arranging one. "No, we will never talk with Mars, even though we find she is inhabited. Remember, 38,000,000 miles is a long way off." The Columbia Theater team went out to Natatorium park this morning figuring they would play ball some with the lngersoll team. It was merely a delusion. The park champions accumulated 19 runs while the Columbia aggregation were organizing 1. And the champs say it wasn't a very good day for baseball either. THREE STEAMERS TO BT.

STORY OF FLORENCE SCHENCKSTOCKHOLDERS' NOTICE
proud though ho was, aud as deeplyas he grieved for the unintentionaldisgrace which his charming daugh-ter had brought iv ills fond heart,folded the beautiful girl to hisbreast, and immediately planned totake her back to the home whichshe had deserted in a moment ofmisguided sentiment.
It was last October that FlorenceSchenck first met Chas. H. Wilson.He was in charge of the Vanderbilthorses then. She was an enthusias-tic equestrienne herself, and theirfriendship developed rapidly.
October 19, 1906, she declares,they were married. Later they wentto Kit rope. Wilson denies the mar-riage but will say nothing more.Miss Schenck declares that on 1occasion, when they were diningwith the Vanderbilts, Mr. Vander-bilt read aloud from a newspaperan announcement of her engage-ment to Lieut en lit Aahton, of theUnited States army, and that Wil-sou became so excited he droppeda plate onto the floor. Later, shedeclares, Wilson demanded thatshe cancel her engagement to Lieu-tenant Asbton, and that she did so,becoming the "wife" of Wilsonsoon after the close of tho Norfolkhorse show.
"My life is wrecked," moansbeautiful Florence Schenck; butshe is going back lo Norfolk, se-cure in the love of her proud fath-er, to face whatever embarrass-ment may confront her snd what-ever criticism there may be fromthe frlonds over whom ah* oncereigned as queen.
SPOKANE PRESS, JULY 16, 19D7
PROF. CHAS. S. HOWE IN DIAGRAM SHOWING HOW CANALSOF MARS APPEAR THROUGH MIGHTY TELESCOPE
I "Astronomer Perclval Lowell, at
I his observatory in Flagstaff, Ariz.,has shown by his maps that themountain peaks are snow-capped
in the winter, and in the spring
the water flows down the valleys
into canals that are 50 miles wide,and then vegetation springs up.He calls these streams canals, notbecause they are artificial, but be-cause the Martian waterways runin a straight line to the oceans in-stead of meandering, as ours do.
"Until our telescopes are In-creased in power many fold, ourdetermination of the physical geo-graphy of Mars are at a standstill,
but with the spectroscope muchvaluable information is being ga-
thered concerning her composition.
"If Mars is Inhabited, and we ofthe earth should want to communi-cate with her, It would be donewith flashes of light, but thiswould be unintelligent because ofwant of a code, and the impossi-bility of arranging one.
"No, we will never talk withMars, even though we find she isinhabited. Remember, 38,000,000miles is a long way off."
The Columbia Theater teamwent out to Natatorium park thismorning figuring they would playball some with the lngersoll team.It was merely a delusion. The parkchampions accumulated 19 runswhile the Columbia aggregationwere organizing 1. And the champssay it wasn't a very good day forbaseball either.
