Jones Claim. the Championship.

To the Sporting Editor Of The Times:
In your issue of August 3, in speaking
of Jack Farrell, you term him the "Lo-
cal Featherweight Champion" I desire
to call your attention to the fact, that
this title was fairly won by me- and has
never been lost. From indisputable au-
thority learn. that when Farrell fought
me. his weight was between 135 and 13s
pounds, while l was under l22 pounds. He
therefore cannot rightfully claim the
''featherweight' championship. l strug-
eled hard to win this title. and consider
1t only justice that should be given the
credit for defending 1t. When Farrell
comes under 122 pounds, and defeats me.
then. and not before. has he a right to
the title of local featherweight champi-
on" Trusting that you will give this
prominence, / am,
Very respectfully.

JOE LETTER IN TAMPICO.
1t Was There He Trained for His Re-
cent Chicago Feats of Strength.

Kansas City Star.
Before Joe Letter, of Chicago, went fish
ing in the wheat pit and caught a whale
he occasionally spent some time in tropical
waters in a less dangerous sport. About
year ago he took his little steam yacht
and went down the Mexican coast in the
and he put into Tampico for repairs. 1t
was a case for dry dock, but no such
modern improvement was available. The
Mexican Central Railway engineers came
to his assistance, however, and two lighters
ranged alongside the Chicago mans boat
1t was raised clear of the water with the
same tackle used to lift the loads from
ships holds, and the necessary repairs were
easily made
Mr. Letter was necessarily in Tampico
some time, but he did not leave in a hurry
even after his boat was made safe. His
pleasant disposition and jolly, unpretending
ways made all the TampicO eXlleS his
friends and he became theirs He stayed
around the quaint old port for some time,
running one day up the great, sluggish Pan
uco river and the next out to the blue gulf
to the east. Inland he shot ducks, brant
and all manner of things that fly and crawl,
many varieties of which never venture into
colder climate than Tampico, where the
average winter temperature is about " de-
grees Fahrenheit
Out of the sounding banks at the mouth
of the river he caught fish. Sometimes
these were only mullets a few inches long.
Other times young shark fell to his hook,
and on one memorable occasion he hooked
and landed a big Jewish, weighing several
hundred pounds. This fish was so big that
it was taken aboard by means of block and
tackle from the davits, and Mr.. Letter was
so much pleased with his prize he had him
self photographed in the act of contem-
plating it's massive and shiny black bulk.
Now that Mr. Letter has become such a
noted operator in the Chicago markets the
exiles of Tampico recall with interest the
smallest details of his visit TO their
wharves, and they profess to see in the
skill and audacity of the recent wheat
deals the same traits which made him the
most successful hunter and fisherman of
them all
