CHICAGO. Feb. 8-LocaI turfmen are

mere talk in the story that a third rae

and vicinity to jump into the game
after the close of the coming season.
While there is not any probability that

that the syndicate. osteDsibly headed by

ELKTON. Md. Feb s.-Notwith-
standing the heavy SHOWS and severe
cold weather this winter, Oregon NJ.
Dennis, secretary of the Maryland State
Game and Fish Protective Association,
states that all reports ne has received
in regard to the condition of partridges
and other game are very encouraging
1t is said that the birds are thriving
better now than they did during the
first cold spell of weather. and that
they are being fed and look ed after con
stantiy by farmers in every section OF
the state in response to an appeal in
the birds behalf During the first part
of December cartridges and pheasants
were reported to have been dying as the
result of starvation. The State Game
Association went to the rescue of the
birds, with good results. The first heavy
snowfall in December covered the fields
where the. birds got their supply Of
grains and seeds. The alternating pc
RODS OF thawing and freezing covered
the supply of food with plating Of ice,
through which the birds could not break.
Since then farmers and other persons
have been feeding the birds.

Alas for Patsy Corrigan. lie was
knocked out by Tommy Lowe last night
in the sixth round at a place on the
Bladensburg road
Corrigan showed that he knew much
about the hghting game, and IN some re-
snects outboxed Lowe, but he was handi-
capned by a lack of weight and did not
have hitting power to inJure such rug
ged opponent. His best trick was con-
stantIy dropping TO the floor TO avoid
punishment or to draw his opponent into
d foul
Tin-Canning Kissed
This dropping TO the floor is bad
enough in a battle royal among negroes
but there Is IitsIe excuse for it IN stan
bout between two white boys, and the

Mace had Il perfect right TO disqualify
Corrigan fer the constant dropping and
stated after the bout that he would have
done so had the Trenton man continued
it III the sixth round, but before he had
an opportunity TO exercise his discretion
in the matter Lowe crossed his right
over to Corrigans jaw and put him Il
