Chicago, Aug. 1s.-It looks as If
Aurelia Herrera, the Mexican fighter,
never again would be able to draw
"easy money" from the fight fans Of
the public or the pugilistic promoters.
His "passing' came last night be-
fore a throng Of Chicago and cream
city patrons Of boxing when Charlie
Neary, "the pride of Milwaukee, re-
lentlessly followed the Bakersfield man
around the ring and pounded Herrera
into a pulp. Thrice had these men met
in the ring for drawn battles. This
time Neary wished the decision, even
if he got it from drunken man.
After seven farcieal rounds, in all
of which Herrera was unable to pro-
tect himself, the trainers of the Mexi-
can, who disappointed a big crowd the
night he was to have met Nelson, threw
up the sponge.
Milwaukee stood for the most dis.
reputable prizefght that ever dis.
graced Wisconsin SOIL" said one of
the returned critics today. "Herrera
trained for only one week, and was
more fit for chopping block than TO,

fight must have known he was not in

American Association Managers
Said to Have Strings on
Iowa League Clubs.
Special 70 Tho Journal.

Special "a Tho journal.
Marshalltown, Iowa. Aug. 18.-The
most interesting developments In the
Iowa state league is. the sale of the
Waterloo club to Tim o 'Rourk Of st.
Paul, who is said to be buying it for
George E. Lennon, owner of the st.
Paul club Of the American association.
It is understood that O'Rourk viii
manage the club, if the negotiations
are concluded, which seems almost GER
tain.
The price paid iss$5oog farsthe fran
chise, the Waterloo association to pay
up all Indebtedness. What effect this
will have on the league next year is
.problematioal, but there is little doubt
that the larger leagues will become
more and more interested in. the Iowa
league if it continues, andSit. is be-
lieved that otheFaaelubsz will Sbe taken
over by the managers Of larger leagues.
It has long been suspected that
Kelly Of Minneapolis really controlled
the Burlington team, and, if so, con-
team has made, it would not he bad
idea for other towns to get into such
hands. The league would thus. become
an excellent field for trying 7out pros
pective players in the big leagues, and
at the same time furnish good league
ball for the Iowa circuit
Lennon Needs Players.
Negotiations are on for the sale Of
Manager Rollo Brown and Pitcher Dick
of the Marshaltown team to Lennon.
Dick is touted as one Of the best pitch
ers In the Iowa league; He is not only
ager Brown is one of the headiest
players in the league, and batted an
average of 1922 up to Aug. i: The
price put on Dick is 5000, and on Brown
$500. The Marshalltown. team will be
badly crippled if it loses the men.
Spell Is Broken. :. 90.
Marshalltown g. remarkable. winning
streak when she took sixteen out of
twenty games and landed. in third place,
came to an abrupt ending this week.
Oskaloosa broke the spell in the fourth
of a; series Of games. Ottumwa re-
and the home team managed to- get
only one game since. Oskaloosa went
back to- third place as a result Bur
hngton lost two games to Clinton,
which team seems to have been greatly
strengthened. 49,, -. :. >.........-
A sensational episode occurred on the
grounds Thursday, when Corkhill, left
fielder for the Marshalltown team, at
tackled Umpire Anderson. He objected
to decision, claiming to have been hit
by a pitched ball, which Anderson re
fused to allow. Corkhill struck the UNI
pire in the face and then kicked hin
in the stomach. It was feared Ander
son was seriously injured. He was lait
out for five minutes, but finally recov
-Fered. Gorkhill was fined $50. He wal
also arrested, but has not had pre-

champion lightweight Of the world. of
fered this sage bit Of 'dope' for the

Battler' when they meet Labor Day

"Joe is not as fast as he used to
be, - said HEREFORD, "and besides he has
not taken the best Of care Of himself.
Of course he will train, because if there
is one man in this world he. wants to
beat it is Nelson, who has been rum

But Nelson is young and fast and will
work hard. IF Joe doesn't cross him
over with in the first fifteen rounds it is
going to be hard work for him to get
the decision.
Should Joe lose he will have $4,000

he will be able to pick up nice bit

TIE SCIENCE or ECONOMY.
This is q wastefal nation in man,

This is wastefal nation in many
ways. but it is far less wastetul
than it once was. For this we
have science to thank. The chem
lists art has taught us many things
and has added and is adding
many millions to our wealth. A
few years ago cotton seed was re
garded as worse than useless. Now
its by-products have a value of
more than $50.OOO,OOO annually.
1t is the boast of the great pork
packers that nothing of the hog is
lost but the squeal, and the oil re-
finers lose nothing of the crude
product but the smell. The saw
dust that once was valueless has
become as valuable as the solid
lumber-in some cases more so,
just as the by products of crude
oil are worth more than the re-
fined oil.
We have learned to save hun
dreds of millions by utilizing ma
terial which we formerly threw
away. We make things of paper,
and we make paper of wood. We
make building stone as cheaply as
we make brick, and we have ma
chinery that makes old clothes into
new cloth.
We have not yet learned the
household economy for which the
French are famous, and which the
Germans understand. There is
too much waste in the kitchen, too
much extravaganza in household
economics. We have not mastered
the science of cookery, and we
have not learned how to buy, to
utilize and to save. The science of
chemistry teaches the utilization of
every scrap of every element, and
great manufacturing concerns are
conducted on this principle. But
the household with little money to
spend spends it like a drunken
prince and turns up its nose at the
small economics which mean not
only larger saving but better
living.
The department of cookery and.
household economy is sadly neg
lected.

TALES TOLD BY The CLERGY

seDse nj Hlmor Touched by Adveu-
tares with Parishicners.
A group of clergymen were exchang-
ing anecdotes
"When ] took my first little parish.
down in Maine,' said one of them, II
was trifie anxious about my first SER
mon. The pastor who preceded me
had been very popular man, and 1
wanted to make good impression at
the start. Now, as You all know, there
is in every parish OF every denomina-
ton one woman who sort of bosses
things, and after my first service I
naturally made my first parocbiaI call
upon her. She received me cordially
and praised my sermon until 1 began
to feel quite 'chesty'
'Then she launched out into q paean
OF praise for my predecessor. He was
everything that was good and great.
He had but one fault, she said, and
that was he was apt to preach over the
heads of his congregational triae too
scholarly for them. But she added in
burst of confidence, L am sure we
shall never find that fault with you.'
Now that woman meant to be compli-
mentary. Was she? / don't know"
We'll" said another, when 1 got
my first charge 1 was the mildest
curate going and extremely diffident In
the presence of women. One of my
first calls was made upon a sharp
tongued woman who was suffering
from some real and many imaginary
ills. She at once began upon her
PHYSICAL woes, and before I knew it
was deep in a discussion OF roots and
herbs and various indictments bene-
fetal to the liver. 1 was too difident
to change the conversation and direct
1t into spiritual paths, and neighbor-
mountaineering in L made my
departure in something of the nature
of retreat.
AS the little maid of all work was
showing me out 1 heard the visitor
say: That's the new minister. What
did he want?' WELL replied the
sharp tongued invalid, L suppose he
came to inquire after my soul. but he
had only got as far as my liver when
you came in
1T was months before I summoned
up resolution enough to go to that
house again"
81" said third clergyman, '.never
stood so much in awe of the female
parishioner as you fellows. l remem-
Der once. when was I'm the theological
seminary, 1 used sometimes to assist
down at old St Paurs. One day at
some church dolngs uptown a woman
came rustling and bustling up to me
and said:
~ hear you are doing some work
down at St Paurs. How NIGEL / am
coming down to see you some day.
she added In a patronizing tone. You
know we have a family vault In st.
I'aurs.'
Madam replied, L hope you will
not wait so long as that before visiting

not think she saw the point."-New
