WHAT MANAGERS THINK
OF NELSON'S NOLAN
Public Opinion Is That Cans and
Nelson Will Not Meet
Again.
Tribune Special Sporting Service

iiiouHe Special sporting Service.
SAN FRANCISCO, April l3.-Jim-
my Cohroth came to the fore recently
with q $4,000 purse for Joe Cans and
Battling Nelson to fight for at Colma
on July d. Tex Rickard offered $30,-
900 to the same fighters to meet AT
Ely, New, on the samo day. Eddie
Graney followed the Nevada Napoleon
OF finance with bid of 5000 Now
Cohroth beats both marks, one by
$1,000 and the other by $4,000. Jimmy
allowed his lieutenant, Billy Roche,
who has run the Colma fights, to talk
Tor him. Roche exhibited $4,000 in
cash, which he posted rs an evidence of
good faith The balance will 20 up
just as soon as Cans and Nelson make
noise like n match, There is little
question but that Coffroth has the mon
.ey TO swing the big affair.
In putting up his dough there is only
one stipulation that he makes, and this
IS that Nolan must be eliminated. Cof-
froth had one experience with this
manager and this was ample. AT low
figure, Nolan by his antics damaged
the Britt-Nelson gate receipts $4,000,
The moment Nolan raised the cry that
Jeffrles, who had been made referee,
was SlduuluG III 10 TOD NC!Sou,
to cancel tickets came pouring into
Coffroth S Office from all over the State
and from Oregon and Nevada. At that
time Coffroth took a solemn pledge that
he was through with Nolan If Mel
son thinks favorably of the Colma Of
fer, he will be sent Il ticket to come
here to talk terms with Coffroth and
Selig. Ticket will be sent him just
as soon as he gives the word.
Roche said he had reason to hope
that Battling would break away from
Nolan shortly, Certain Chicago sports
have written friends here that Ne. son
is dead sick of Nolan s tiDhorn actions,
and intends to break away from him.
One thing, is certain. Nelson fattens
on popularity, but he will be bantam
weight if he stays with his present
manager much longer Nolan will
make him anything bot an idol.
Ben Selig was not cheerful when ap-
prised of Coffroth S huge offer. "He
can hang up 100000 and Nelson. won t
fight observed Ben, Gas long as No,
Ian is in on the play. Nolan and Mel
son don't want anything to do with
Cans. If Nelson puts himself in the
hands of another manager, which l
hope he will do, then we might talk
sense with him. While Nolan is tied
to his coattail / dom 7 look for any re-
suits"

ceal but he went on regarding her as a child.
 One evening he announced that on the next morning he must take his de- parture. Together they sat on the doorstep in the moonlight and looked down over the forests and peaks and were very quiet. At first he told her of the great scean lying hundreds of miles away. of the great cities teem- ing with human life, of the wonders she might some day behold. and she crowded closer to him like a child. Then she sighed and sighed and sigh ed and moved away. By and by she entered the cabin and sought her bed without word. She did not appear at breakfast. She had risen and gone out. He waited half an hour to say goodby, but as she did not come he shouldered his pack and set out.
 Half a mile down the trail he found her. She was seated on rock at a bend where they had often sat and rested and talked.
 Come down, Nancy. I want to say goodby," he called. She came slowly, and he saw her as he had seen her on that first day. Her hair was hanging down her back, stockings and shoes were conspicuous ly absent, and bow and fiounce were missing. Not exactly as he had seen her on that first day, for now she had been weeping.
 "Why, Nancy, what is it?" he ask ed as he took her hand "It's-it's that I can't read" she al- most walled. Its that I can't write, can't talk, can't go nowhere, can't be nuthin' nor nobody. It's that I am pore and shacklety and ignorant and have got to live and die yere. It's its"-
 But, Nancy"- he began, and then, realizing her feelings, he knew not what to add.
 You'll never come ag'inT she que ried.
 Perhaps not"
 And I'll have no one-no one"-
 Her eyes were cast down and her tears falling as he held her hand. By and by he softly said:
 T didn't know it till just now, Man. cy."
 But it can't be-" she replied as she raised her head and threw her hair back. Tt can't be no more than the eagle and the crow. You-you are ev- erything; am nuthin'-nuthin' but pore and ignorant and shacklety, just fitten for such life as this"
 Then she bent forward and kissed him, wrenched her hand away and fled up the trail and left him looking after her and pondering and wondering and feeling such a pity as he would never feel for woman again. He heard her whistling among the rocks. She was fighting herself; he heard her laughing She was going back to the old life with breaking heart. And he knew she was right.

Why stmmy Didn't Sit Down.

The woman who had shopped until the closing gong had sounded stood at the transfer station and awaited the suburban trolley.
 What" she wearily asked herself, ''does it profit q woman if she gain the elusive bargain and loses every trace of physical freshness?"
 Presently the car came along. It had the usual crowd of humanity, and the woman resignedly prepared to stand, when a grimy youth arose and rendered her his place. Protesting faintly, she sank into it guiltily and registered a VOW never to shop over- time again.
 In due time several seats were vacat- ed, and the woman looked hopefully toward her knight.
 Jimmy" friend of his was saying, there's room inside now. Why don't you sit down?'
 And the last drop of discomfort was added to the woman's cup of humilia- tion when Jimmy responded:

A Humble
 Heroine.
By MARION LEWIS.
,pyrighted, 1907, by M. M. CunningSs~s.


 It was one day in early spring that he appeared on a South Carolina moun- tain and stood at the door of humble cabin. He was a young man of five and twenty. and he was fair to look upon. The girl of twenty who was sweeping the rough floor with a switch broom stared at him for a moment and wondered how he had found his way there from the other world. She had seen men in plenty-she saw men ev- cry day of her life, but they were not like this man. They were rough and unkempt. Most of them had long boards. They wore homespun, and they carried rifles wherever they went. This man was totally different. He was dressed for the mountains, but she had seen no such clothing up there before. He lifted his cap to her. In all her life she had never seen that done to a girl or woman on the mountains. If he had a corncob pipe 1t was not in sight. and he wore shoes instead of thick boots.
 Nancy Settle could not read. The people she lived among did little talk ing. When they did talk 1t was about moonshine whisky, possums, coons and other matters of local interest. She had never visited the town, fourteen miles away, except on one occasion. Then her father had hitched an OK to cart. tied ropes to the animals horns for lines and driven her there and back. In town she had seen heaps of houses and heaps of people. but she was scared and disturbed all the time. She had seen what her father said were gentlemen and ladies, and she remembered them ever afterward. This was why she said to herself as she stood leaning on the handle of the broom that the man before her must be gentleman. He asked for her fa- ther. who was away in the woods, and for her mother, who was out digging sassafras root, and then he explained that he had come up the mountain to study nature. He would study flow CTS, the birds and the wild animals, and he would write of them later on. He wanted board and lodgings. Would MT. Settle take him in?
 Nancy had seen men whose rough speech frightened her. She had seen others who came to make love to her. She had run away from both kinds. She did not run away from this man, who gave her his name as Williams. After the first five minutes she was hardly embarrassed. True, she was barefooted, her hair hung down her back in tangle, and there were hooks missing from her waist. But his talk
