AN INSURANCE REFORM.
Opposition to boxing may be carried
to such an extreme as to produce a
new sentiment in favor of moderate
revival of the game. Where the state
laws are plainly against boxing there
can be little hope for anything big In
the pugilistic line, but when a reform
er attempts to stop sparring exhibi-
tions on the stage the matter of oppo.
sition reaches he limit, says Malachy
Hogan in the Chicago Times Herald.
The arrest of Gus Rubin and Denver
Ed" Martin and the decision which
held them to the grand jury, had the
affair rested there temporarily, might
have been followed with arrests of
men who take boxing lessons for ply,
sical exercise, college students who
compete in gymnasiums or anyone else
who pulled on ten-ounce gloves at any
time or place. Regardless of the pu-
gilistic trend of the game. it is need
less to say that wherever there are
athletes there are men who take up
boxing. Sparring for points between
amateurs has furnished big events in
different parts of the country. While
pugilism may be practically dead, box
ng, or sparrng, as some people prefer
to call it, will continue to be popular,
and any successful effort to interfere

THE MAKING OF A PUGlLIST.
Something of the Early History Of Gus Rubin,
the Akron Giant---Picked Up by Billy
Madden by Accident.

Because lithographic company in
Akron, o., no longer had need of a
strong young man to handle heavy
packages of paper, Gus Rubin be-
came a professional pugilist, says an
exchange. Laid Off in dull season,
just the same rs any other laborer,
suggested itself. He had been in the
habit of cutting and pushing about
his fellow-employes in impromptu
bouts and determined to try faster
opponents in the roped circle. That
Rubin boasts the luxury of a manager
and a sparring partner, an unvarying
sign of success in a pugilist. Despite
early buffetings, the akron Giant"
as Rubin is known, now stands as the
next logical opponent of Champion
Jim Jeffries in the eyes of the sport
ing world.
Rubin appears anything but the
professional pugilist when in street
clothes. Simple in his style of dress.
ing, the big man is an easy going fel-
low, with the most implicit confidence
in the managerial abilities of Billy
Madden, who steers his ring craft. To
him he leaves all of the worrying,
and he goes about his work as any
mechanic might go about his trade.
Through Ruhlin's defeats Madden has
always held firm that the Akron man
would some time be champion.
Born in the year 1871 at Canton, O.,
Rubin grew up at Akron and went to
work in the lithographing business.
Winning two or three fights gave the
big fellow all the encouragement he
needed to take trip to New York
city for the purpose of trying his luck
against the top notchers. He buckled
up with "Yank" Kenny, and that
worthy disposed of the Akronite in
something like sixteen rounds. This
was heavy damper TO the youngster
who wanted to be heavyweight cham.
pion.
Just about this time Billy Madden
was trying to make himself and the
public believe that Notwithstanding
the fact that Peter Maher had stop,
ped Steve O'Donnell in something
like one minute, that O'Donnell could
reverse the decision if given another
chance. He matched O'Donnell
against Maher for another trial and
then was anxious to secure some one
to work with his "hope-to-be cham
pion."
Behind the scenes of a Chicago
theater where the "Akron Giant" and
Denver Ed" Martin are filing a
weeks engagement, Madden told last
night OF his first experience with
Rubin. Madden has been shooting
at the goal for long time, and Ruh,
lin is not the first nor the second he
has led to the post to try for the cham,
pionship stake. He looked after the

Instructor. Five new members were
elected. II was decided to waive the
initiation fee of S25 until the total

this will be reached before the season
is far advanced.
THE RACING OUTLOOK.
There will be at least dozen cir
cults which will be in close proximity
to the Ohio horsemen, This is an
exceptionally large number, but 1t goes
to prove the popularity of the light
harness brigade. The Grand circuit
will give two meetings In this State.
or course, Cleveland wsll be represent
ed in this, aas we'll as Columbus. The
Northeastern Ohio Trotting circuit,
which is becoming more popular each
season, has not arranged its schedule
of dates yet, but this will be decided
at meeting at the Forest City house
tomorrow morning. 1t is quite likely
that there will be nine tracks in the
circuit which will include Rockport,
Newburg, McKee's Rocks, Akron, Mans
field, Warren, Youngstown and Eric.
1t is doubtful If the Valley people will
be admitted to the circuit this season,
owing to the pres n. difficulties. There
will be at least fourteen weeks of
racing, and as every city is well con-
nected and near each other there will
be only short hauls. 1t will be noticed
that Cleveland will get her full share
Of the racing.

TROLLEY WHEEL E: E:
Akron Mans Invention
A Great Saving Over the. Old
StyIe-New Gas Stop.

Mr.. o. B. Martin, 12S Sherman st.
extension, has secured a patent on a
ball-bearing, flexible trolley wheel for
which much is claimed. The flanges
of the wheel are separate from the
other parts and capable of opening
to permit distractions to pass through
or to keep the trolley on the wire or
it goes around n curve. BY making
the wheel in separate parts only the
worn parts instead of the whole wheel
are thrown away when new wheels
are necessary, The saving thus re-
sulting is large.
Mr.. Martin has also secured n pat
ent on gas stop, A valve is so con
structed that IL the gas gives out il
closes off its own weight. While the
gas is there it holds the valve open
The return OF the gas cannot open the
valve.
Mr.. G. r. smetts is a partner in botf
patents. A Chicago concern wants
to buy the trolley wheel patent.

How did I first meet Gus Ruhlin?"
unused Madden. well, let's see. You
remember Billy Newman, who was
manager and matchmaker of the old
Bohemian Athletic club of New York,
one of the pioneer organizations under
the Horton law. He recommended
Rubin to me as a training mate for
Steve O'Donnell This was about the
time that I thought the latter-oh,
well you know. Well Rubin came
around to training quarters, and he
Immediately took my eye. He was
always a trim built sort of fellow,
and while he was working with o.
Donnell l taught him how to stand
in position, with his left arm and foot
out, and all such kind of stuff. When
/ talked Of getting him matches, how
ever, it was different He told me
that Charley White, Billy Newman
and quite lot of others We're his
managers and looking after his inter
ests. OF course l dropped the matter
then, and when Maher again knocked
out O'Donnell in one round Rubin
decided to return home and go to work
in preference to being fighter. ]
told him that in case he saw an oppor-
! tunity to make any money in Akron
for ten round bout between himself
and O'Donnell to let me know.
"Well, sure enough, about two
months later l heard from the much
managed young fellow and he wrote
me that he had matters all arranged
/ for himself and O'Donnell. Just then
l had arranged n match between
| O'Donnell and Alec Greggains to
take place at San Francisco, and will
ingly stopped off at Akron. 1t is

gave my champion in that bout sched.

day Gus came around to my hotel
and asked me to manage him.
II told him that l would try to gel
him a match, and continued on my
way to San Francisco. They very first
