PUGHIsTIC CARNIVAL TANNED.
Three Great Bests Nay Take Place at
Les, Angeles During Fiesta.

FA1VUS AA80AC0 UOElUk XAc0L8s
II the plans of Manager McCarey
Of the Pacific Athletic club of Los
Angeles do not go amiss the southern
California city will be the scene dur
Ing hesta week, early in May, of the
most elaborate fistic carnival held
since the days of the Corbett- Fitz-
aimpons battle at Carson City, New.
In 1897, or the memorable Sullivan
Corbett encounter at New Orleans in
1892. Fifty thousand visitors are ex-
pected to be in Los Angeles during
the fiesta period, which Is an annual
celebration, and McCarey hopes to
arrange the following program:
May 8-Jimmy Britt of San Fran
cisco versus Kid Herman Herman
Lanfield) of Chicago.
May 10-Jock, 0'Brien Of Philadel-
phia versus Tommy BURNS Noah
Brusso) of Calf. Ontario.
May 12-Aurelio Herrera of Ba-
kersfield, Cal, versus Battling Nelson
of Hegewisch. Ill.
A better card than this could
scarcely be arranged, and that the
three fights will take Place according
to schedule there is little doubt. Britt
and Herman have signed some time
since and are about to begin training;
1t does not seem likely that there will
be any hitch in O'Brien and Burns
getting together, while the third match
fs all but made. Herrera has signed
and the articles are on their way to
New York for Nelson's signature.
me three contests represent an un-
usual layout of money, in the neigh
borhood of $4,000 in purses. The
popularity of the light-weights ia
shown by the fact that Nelson and
Herrera will battle for the long end
of $4,000, which is the most extrava-
CANT prize of the trio. OF this amount
the winner will receive $500 and the
loser $6,4O0. In addition to this the
Dane. who is now on top and In q
position to dictate, gets $4,000 bonus,
which was exacted by his astute man
ager, Billy Nolan.
1t is safe betting that O'Brien and
Burns, although fighting for the hand
ed down heavyweight championship
title, are playing second fiddle in the
matter of money to at least the one
pair of little fellows, while Britt and
Herman are probably to receive as
much for. their services as the Quaker
and Canadian.
Tom McCarey and the Pacific Atk-
iettc club are to be commended for one
thing at least, and that is that all
their efforts are bent on securing the
best talent available for their shows.

Honkey Cashiers in Siam.

A story has come out of Lahore,
India, which will be generally received
in the language Of the war cores
pondents, with reserve" The story
has to do with cheap labor, which
means more In the east than It. does
here. The story Is that in q large
store In Slamese city a pet ape was
seen to take up a coin, bite 1t and hurl
1t to the floor with every expression
of disgust. An examination of the
coin showed it to be counterfeit, and
a genuine coin was placed In the way
of the ape. He bit the coin, looked
satisfied, and placed it carefully on
the cashiers counter. It was evident
that he could distinguish spurious
from good coin, and the abNshment
secured two other apes from q local
ZOO and put them to the test They
did not fail In a single instance to
separate spurious coin from genuine.
Since then the majority of the bust
ness houses In Siam have employed
apes as cashiers. and there is no more
counterfeit coin In circulation.-New

The chief clerk Of the Posto6ce De-
partment, MT. NJ o. Chance. has de-
yised a scheme to save time to the
clerks in the department and also to
prevent Them injuring the muscles OF
their aec<s by continually turning
their heads to watch the clocks in the
various rooms. so as to tell how near
their days work Is done The large
clock which hangs on the third noor
OF the PostoGce building oTertooks
the g.eat court Of that building This
clock can be seen from the corridors
lacinS the court from all the eight sto-
hes, and has been for many years the
official tmepIece. OF: the hundreds of
employees In the department. Near this
clock there has been erected a wooden
frame in which there hangs two i'm
mense steel cylinders about s feet Il
@gSE. These are connected with two
large hammers by an electric connec-
ton through battery TO the clock
On the hour and half hour the ham
mers strike the cylinders and the deep
cathedral sounds reverberate through
the building, in which the acoustic
properties seem to have been specially
designed for this novel arrangement

the officials said
you see, there is considerable wea
on the government clocks from the
constant watch on them by clerks who
wish to ascertain The time Of day Nov
they can hear the strike OF the gong
and there is no necessity for their
leaving their desks and wasting their
time to go out and see the clock In the

cuse for leaving their desks, as they
can tell every time the half hour is
passed
