MADE POOR SHOWING
MnDE PROVED AN EASY MARK
FOR JOE WARDINSkY
LAST NIGHT.
Bumped Into Left Hook After MIN
,,+e of Boxinq-Four Round Pre-
Inonary Was Corker.

Joe Wardinsky, the Minnesota mld-
de weight. easily proved his superior
;tv over w. w. Wade, the colored box
arr at the Walla Walla Athletic CLUB
last night. The men were scheduleo
to 90 20 rounds. but after less tnah d
minnie of boxing, Wade bumped INTO
left hand hook that set his nghts
bobbing" and before he could get mis-
hearings Referee Parker had counted
him out. ,oo
Wardinsky made hit with the zoo
enectators that crowded the gymna-
si,m His work was fast and clean
and he showed himself conversent with
the game from start to finish. Wade
was clearly outclassed and made a
moor showing after the first exchange
Immediately after the contest a letter
WAS read from Tom Riley the Portland
middle weight, challenging the WIN
ner. Wardinsky has signified his IN
tention to accept the defl and the con-
test will probably be pulled OF early
in January.
The four-round preliminary between
Thomas Mason and Wilfred Burns
made ND for the shortness of the MAN
event. Both are clever and the tour
rounds went off at a hot pace to the
delight of the crowd.

Opportunities
in the South

No portion OF the United States has
made greater progress IN the last
year or two than the south. North
err and foreign capital is rapidly
invading that section, finding prof
liable investment in the various in
dustries and factories that are be-
ing rapidly developed and built.
The great influx of settlers is Great
ing an increased demand for lands
of all kinds and prices are gradual
ly advancing, as they will for years
to come. Work is plentiful and
poverty practically unknown. Ala
bama is supplying the coal and iron
to all the world. More money can
be made with less labor in the rails
ing of small fruits and berries and
in truck patching on the Gulf
Coast than in any other state in the
Union. Strawberries from Alabama
reach northern markets before
those from the states in the south
east. Cattle can be raised with
great profit, there being millions of
acres of cheap range lands. If you

TWO OBL!GING MEN.
Each Was the Victim In n Street Car
Fare Transaction.


1t was in Boston street car. When
the car stopped at a crossing, lady
got up and went to the door. AS she
rose there was the cliink of a coin on
the floor, but before it occurred to any
one to stop her she was out of the car
and across the street. Two ladies who
had sat next to her looked with anX-
ious Indifference on the floor. One Of
them leaned slightly forward, but said
nothing. Just as the conductor was
reaching for the bell rope a young man
spied the coin and dashed out of the
car. He caught the lady who had left
the car, handed her the coin, ran back,
caught the step of the car as the mo-
tors began to sing in crescendo and sat
down breathless. One of the two ladies
opposite him leaned forward and said
coldly, Young man, what did you do
with the nickel dropped!' The pas
sengers Uttered. An old man at the
other end of the car turned to his
neighbor. That reminds me-" he said.
"of something that happened to my
wife years ago.
ut was before the days of conduct
ors. when we used to drop our nickes
into slot, and they ran down groove
to the box behind the driver.
"My wife had started out with lit
tie change and one of those trouble
some five dollar goldpieces which used
to be more commonly in circulation
than they are now. Her eyes We're not
good, and so she was nervous about
her goldpiece and had it on her mind
all the way downtown.
when she took car for home, she
met a friend and grew interested in
conversation with her She put her
coin in the slot absentmindedly The
driver turned as it struck the box You
remember the coin fell into a glass
compartment first, and then the driver
pushed a lever which sent it into the
strong box below.
"As my wife heard the click of the
lever she thought of her five dollar
goldpiece. She looked in her purse
Sure enough, it was gone She went
forward and spoke to the driver. He
said he hadn't looked very carefully,
but he thought there were only three
nickels in the glass receptacle when he
pushed the lever.
my wife insisted. The driver said
if she would ride to the end of the line
the cashier at the station would open
the box. This meant journey of two
miles beyond our street, and my wife
was in a hurry
can old gentleman who sat by the
door said lie was going to the end of
the line and offered to give her $4.95
cents and get the goldpiece at the sta
ton. Ny wife thanked him and took
the money. When she got home, she
found the five dollar goldpiece in the
lining of her purse.
"NeXt day went to the station. The
cashier said an old gentleman had made
| him open the box. There was no gold
piece. The old gentleman had left in
a rage, refusing to give his name. He
said he had been swindled and did not
want to be known for fool

never heard from him."-Youth's Com
