COLD STORAGE A BLESSING.

Few ho~useholders appreciate the
debt they owe to the cold storage sys-
tenn now 30 generally in use through
out the country. II has become a nee
essary adjunct to the rapidly develop
ing commercial o~rcharding Of the
country. Il Is the reservoir In which
the temporary o~versupply OF fruit Is
placed and from which II may be uni
formly distributed throughout the
year. From the earliest times 1t has
been recognized that some provision
must be made to store up the temper
airy surplus and distribute It in time
Of greater need II an industry is to
grow into permanency and stability,
and II violent fluctuations in supply
and demand are to be avoided, says
the Chicago Chronicle.
The danger Of so-called o%verproduc-
ton is greatest IN an industry when
no provision Is made to equalize the
distribution Of the products through
out the year. There can be no general
reproduction when the majority Of
the people Of the world are still under
supplied, and an industry becomes
safe and attractive when nan masters
the art Of handling the temporary
oversupply and Of converting it into
& steady uniform supply to an increas-
ing number OF people.

HANLON MAKES
WEIGHT EASILY
Native Son Now Tips Beam
at 131 Pounds, Though He
Has Not Yet Worked Hard
ROBBERY AT LARKSPUR
Unknown Joker Puts Up Job
on Dave Barry and Camp
Joins in OH the Laugh

Eddie Hanlon will to-day do his first
gymnasium work at his training quar-
ters at Crolls Garden, Alameda.
He will punch the bag, jump the rope.
wrestle and box with his sparring
mates. Toby Irwin. Frank Mcdonald
and Joe Angel. The latter is getting
himself in condition for a main event
to be fought with Frank Rafael be-
fore the Sequoia Club of Oakland on
the 26th OF this month.
During the last three days Hanlon
has confined his exercising to road run
ming. baseball and swimming. Yester-
day he weighed 131 pounds, one pound
above the weight called for in the ar
ticles of his coming contest with Bat
tling Nelson. Eddie intends to pursue a
different system for making the weight
for his next fight from that which he
has heretofore practiced. In the past
he has kept above the weight agreed
upon until a few days prior to the bat
tie, when he would begin to get rid
of his surplus avoirdupOis. He now
plans to be below the weight at which
he is to meet Nelson until few days
preceding the mill. Then he will COM
mence to take on the ounces and
pounds that will meet the requirements
at weighing-in time.
Hanlon is but 19 years of age and
at present tips the scales at less than
he did year ago. 1t was prophesied
by some of the little fellows admirers
that before he was 20 years Of age he
would have grown so that 1T would be
almost impossible for him to make 130
pounds and be strong, but thus far
Hanlon has experienced no difficulty in
fighting at 130 pounds and that without
loss Of energy.
Battling Nelson spent a quiet day at
his training quarters at Larkspur. The
weather was extremely warm and
trainer Murphy advised Nelson to ease
up a bit, as he does not wish him to
reduce too quickly.
Nelson, Ted Murphy and Dave Barry
took a nine-mile jog in the morning.
After working half an hour in the gym,
in the early part of the afternoon all
hands proceeded to EscalIe Baths.
where the remainder of the day was
spent.
Last evening Nelson invited a party
Of friends for a bus ride to San Ra-
fael. When near San Anselmo a bold
highwayman waylaid the party and at
the point of a six-shooter demanded
money and jewelry. Dave Barry seemed
to be the only moneyed man in the
crowd and parted with a large sum
and a handsome watch. This morning
Barry's property was returned to him,
but he does not appreciate the joke.
