WHeH llleY returned lney 1alleQ To look
after their wealth and long before
they rose in the morning the gold
grabbers were enroute to Carmi.
When the Queen learned of her loss
she suspicioned where the money had
gone and proposed to follow suit or
trump. A few miles south of town
some of the wrappings that had been
around the coin Was found and this
confirmed the Queens suspicion and
caused her party to push ahead with
more speed. They found the 'gold
grabbers' in camp near Carmi~ and
swore out warrant for them.
Deputy Sheriff Grissom took few
deputies along with him and proceed
ed to the camp. He began searching
the wagons and was very much sur
prised when ne found that most of
the wagons had false bottoms and
these We're filled with money. He
found $50. 900 in gold secreted in this
manner and a certificate of deposit
on Chicago bank for $25.0O0 more
making a total of S55. 900. AS the
Queen could not identify her money it
was not restored to her but there is
no doubt as to where it went to.

Gus Rubin, who has been in the
boxing game for nearly dozen
years, began his early training
while employed in printing es-
adjustment in Akron, o. His job
was to unload paper. Whenever
he had a fight on nand he secured
a leave of absence to train, and
then after the fight he would re-
sumo his occupation.
The most powerful blow a man
ever received in fight" says Rub
lin, sis the one he does not see
coming the blow that catches him
unawares. Most of the blows you
see coming and you are in a meas
ure prepared for them; you know
they are on the way to your body
or your jaw, but you cannot get
out of their way. But the uneX-
pected blow, no matter where it
lands, is the harmful and danger
Gus one, the effects of which a fel-
low does not sometimes get over
for two minutes.
"The most effective blow Is the
right swing on the jaw That comes
near doing the trick every time i;
even when 1t does not put a man
down it jars him pretty hard and
takes some of the spirit out of him
1t makes him feel sleepy and tired

Next to the blow on the chin is
the blow in the pit of the stomach
which knocks the breath out of a
man and from which it takes some
time to recover.

Perhaps you have noticed that

Yet they are preparing to hold an

to live out the whole six years Of
another term. He has declared
himself a candidate for reelection
