The CoWhide Boot

The Boston Globe has article the passing of the
cowhde boot.
Except here and there in the west you may visit store
after store and fail to find of the sturdy cowhde
boot, once the pdire of all the countryside.
The boot came in the Mayfower with the Pilgrims
They waded out to Plymouth rock with their trousers
stuck into the sturdy cowhde The pioneers of the middle
west broke down the brush of the virgin forests and trod
into the black loan the flowers of the prairie in those
leagued boots
In those days this is told of Henry Ward Beecher then
young minister in Indianapolis Indiana: One Sunday
he appeared in the pulpit with his panaloons tucked into
top boots Some said it meant reproof to the pride
of his wealthy congregation then beginning to dis
card the conquerng boot of the old settlers.
Remember how in that time the spruce young
boots that boosted tall heels and fitted tightly they could
only be assumed by means of ''puers and DOTTED by
boot jack?
And if you go back to that of forty years ago.
you will recoect the disposition of the cowhide boot to
harden into bone after days tramp through the wet and
a nights drying. Hence those tears
The pride of your infancy pair Of redtopped
boots with copper tips They the of ambition
and the envy of other small beholders
Well, well.
The world has changed since then and the fashion of the
world With those days have also gone many other things
of the simple life of boyhood
The tender grace of day that is dead will
back to you-nor the daily morning dread of drawing
the recalctrant cowhide boot.

Most of the spectators went there
yesterday thinking they would see
Melody and Barney Mullin go, but
the latter did not don the mitts.
o o Q
There is no greater contrast than
the work done by Melody and Nc
Carthy. Jerry is the hardest kind of
a worker in training and has a big
stable of boxers to go on with him
after his hard stunts in working up a
sweat.
But with Melody it is entirely diff
ferent. Honey" drills along at his
work more in the line of getting
amusement out of it than anything
else. His bag punching is erratic
and devoted mostly to stiff pokes in
stead of any attempt at fancy work,
He goes ahead without trying to
time himself, lands few punches
when he feels like it and stops when
he gets ready.
O o Q
His stunts at handball are more
like the antics Of an overgrown, fun
training.
Even in the boxing turn Melody
has not been able to let himself out
so far. owing to the fact that he
hasn't secured anyone strong enough
or good enough to go with him in
boxing.

BROOKLYN, N. V, April IA
read in an exchange recently a para
graph to the effect that Wheeler c.
Wikofr and James A. Williams are
prominent and esteemed citizens OF
Columbus, O., the former being one
of the Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine of
that city.
Reading of these old boys sent my
memory back to the fiourishing days
of the old American Association In
the sos, when Wheeler was its pres
ident and williams the secretary
But thinking of Jimmy Williams
takes me back farther. way back to
1867. in fact, when l first saw James
as a player in the old Columbus nine
of that wear. That was the year i
went with the Washington Nationals
on their grand tour through the west
ern states, which did so much to pop
ularize the game in the west in the
sos.
At the time Jimmy Williams was
the pitcher of the Capital club. of
Columbus, the team including James
A. williams p, Dolson C. E. Williams,
King and Baker outfielders; w. Will
lams was the Nationals pitcher, so
three players named Williams took
part in the contest.
The game was played on terribly

Barney bled like a pig and the
spectators believed they were getting
their moneys worth.
Barney had some trouble in soiv-
ing the Klemmer work, as the big
fellow was worse than crazy after
getting a few pokes. but In the
fourth round Mullin let few go into
the stomach which made the big fell
low see things.
Then 1t was that the big fellow
told Barney to stop hurting him and
put him out. Barney raised to do it,
but the referee caught his arm. Then

In the fifth round Barney put the
crazy fighter down with body blow
and shot him clear through the ropes.
Mullin jumped out himself and
dragged KIemmer back into the ring
and told him he would better stay
down or he would get killed
Klemmer was willing, but the bell
tapped and he crawled to his corner
on his hands and knees.
Q O o
When time was called again the
big fellow wouldn't come out and the
referee announced he would call it a
draw. This was the last straw.
The crowd started over the foot

been in the ring himself. jumped
forth and told the referee what would
happen if draw was called.

Then that hot referee announced
that he would give Klemmer two
minutes to get to the center of the
ring or be declared the loser. Klein

and the fight went to Barney after
being won about four times.
That's about the fiercest turn I've
heard of in many day. 1t was mot
the fault of the Wallace sports, who
knew the man and who protested
against his going on against man
like Mullin, but his hackers were
anxious to see him 60

stand on which it was resting, one of
them placing it under his coat, and
walked out to the edge OF the congrega-

shots. They carried the Bible away
and left it in field near Custer. TWAS
