BATTLE OF GIANTS.
Theodore Van Buskirk and Tom
Whelan to Box Here Shortly.

Admirers of the so-called manly
art" in this city are soon to be treated
to glove match that would arouse
interest among the sports of any city
on the coast. The match will take
place in few weeks, and the princi-
pals will be Theodore Van Buskirk, the
big Marysville boxer and Tom Whelan
The latter is newcomer here. He
is from Roslin, British Columbia, and
Is 212-pounder, standing six feet one
inch in hight, or just about the size
of the California giant whom he is to
meet. His fighting weight is 1876
pounds
Whelan's manager, J. J. Mackey of
the Palm" says his man is a good
one. and in proof thereof points to the
fact that few months ago he easily
put Frank Slavin to sleep.
Whelan's first fight was with Pat
Connolly at Nelson, B. c., which he won
in two rounds. He beat Jim Woods in
four rounds, Jack Ferguson in one
round, and disposed of Slavin in two
rounds. He is said to be very quick
for a big man, and Mackey says he
will surprise the local talent when they
see him in the ring.
Van Buskirk and his ring record are
well known. He has won several good
fights, though he was defeated by Jim
Jeffries not long ago. He and Whelan
may be considered to be we'll matched

THE OLD STORY.
A Man Robbed of $500, But He
Gets Out of the Way.

A citizen who claimed to be cognizant
of the fact told a Record re-
porter last evening that on Sunday
night a man-whose name he did not
knew-was robbed of $500 by a woman
in an L-street den.
The money. it was said. had been
found in a saloon on L street and the
alleged female thief locked UP, but that
neither her paramour nor the individ-
ual who had been "cinched" could be
found. The police, he thought. were
of the opinion that the woman's pal
had put him out of the way
Inquiry at the police station failed to
elicit any information on the subject,
except that Sergeant Plunket said he
had heard that some man had been
robbed. But he did not know of any
one having been arrested therefor, nor
had he heard of any one in particular
being accused.
There does not, however, appear to
be much mystery about the affair No
doubt the man was robbed. all right
and no doubt he has disappeared, to-
gether with the mac" or henchman
of the woman. The fact that his mon
ey has not been called for at the saloon
where it is said to have been located
would imply that an equal sum. or
greater. had been paid him to skip the
town.
With the victim out of the way, the
woman will be safe enough, as the po-
lice have no way of proving the theft.
After a little while her human lap-deg
VIII return to town and he, too, viii be
safe from harm
1t is simply the old story, repeated in
its usual form.

Webster's Powerful Voice.

Marshfield is noted for having it's peo-
pie live to a green old age, but Mrs.
Sally Baker who is 90 years old, can
claim the distinction of being it's old
est inhabitant by quite a number of
years. She resides in a pretty farm
house on the Neck road, which has
been her home for sixty-one years. The
buildings are sprucely painted, the sur
roundings are trinity kept and the
barns indicate thrifty farm business.
Mrs. Baker was born in Kingston July
8, 1899, and was the daughter of Oliver
and Sally CMagalathlin) Sampson-good
old colony stock on both sides of the
house, says the Boston Globe"
In April, 1919, Sally Sampson was
married to Captain Otis Baker of Dux-
bury, Parson Zephanish Willis of King
ston performing the ceremony. Cap
tain Baker had been a privateerman in
the War of 1872, being then less than
u years old. His widow now draws a
pension, and is the only pensioner of
that war now living in this section. In
