Death Pact Is Suggested.

The evidence before the coroner did not
implicate Rumbaugh, but evidently he
knew more about the case than he wanted
TO tell. II he murdered the girl. then
he took judgment on himself before the
law, which he would have feared. At
present the mystery is locked UP. It
may be unraveled by statements or other
evidence from among his personal effects,
Of which the officers have charge.
one theory that is gaining ground is
death pact between the young actress
and Rumbaugh.

TO SEE ANDERSON
IN CRUCIAL BOUT
Local Sports To Go TO
Spring Valley to See
Papke Fight.

It is estimated that at least fifty
Hammond sports will go to Spring VAL
ley Feb. Il to see the fight between
Carl Anderson and Bill Papke. From
a Hammond standpoint this fight
is about the biggest thing that has ap-
peared on the local sporting calendar
In many a year.
If Anderson wins he Will be IN the
first rank as a fighter and If he loses
and puts up a good fight in doing so,
it will help rather than hurt him.
Anderson is training at the sham
rock Athletic club at 1S2 East 22nd
street and has as his trainer Mike
Shrek, who is still counted one Of tha
best heavyweights in the business. IT
viii be remembered that only recentlz-
one of the Nevada fight clubs made
shreck an offer to fight with Burns.
If Shreck can impart to Anderson
some Of his cleverness and ring ex
perience Carl has the punch in either
hand and can deliver the goods. Papke
is known to be q rough and tumble
sort Of a fighter without much science
and Anderson can accommodate lust
such q fellow and can step around
some to boot.
Frank Green is Anderson's manager
and Is backing him in this fight. ac-
cording to the latest information and
it is said that the West Hammond sa-
.loonkeeper and politician has SO much
faith in his man that he is willing to
go the limit with him.
Green knows full we'll that If An
derson is as good a man as he has
reason to believe he is and wins his
fight with Papke. who has earned \
reputation as the demon of Spring Val
ley he Will be gold mine for his
manager.
Anderson himself is determined. 1t
IS now or never with him and he knows
it. The Hammond man is at the
heighth of his physical development
and il he cannot beat some good man
in the business now he had better quit
1t is these circumstances that are max
ing the coming battle Of great inter
est to the Hammond friends OF the
local middleweight.

AUSTRALIAN "CHAMPEEN"

Bill Squires Wires That He ana His
Backer, Jack Wren, VIII Leave the

san Francisco, Cal, Feb. IA cable

Australia and states that Bill Squires,
the champion heavyweight fighter of
that great island, will leave there on

This coming of another Australian
fighter, who is hailed as a champion,
is interesting from the fact that many
of his predecessors have made good in
this country. Should he emulate their
spirited example his advent here will
amount to something heavier than q
mere splash.
He is claimed to be a topnotcher, to
have the punch Of a battering ram and
also to possess that greatest OF all as
sets Of boxer a cool head. He is a
miner and is fascinated with that
branch of work, but finds that there
is more money in the f1stio game.

be mentioned such a great one as

Renewing the Egg.

All of the fairy tales of youth about
Humpty Dumpty and the impossible
Ity Of making him over again If a
brick house fell on him will have to
be revised, as an enterprising firm in
Chicago is now making what it calls
reprocessed eggs for the trade.
Eggs which have been run over by
the cars, eggs on which the patient
hen has sat for several weeks without
Matching out any full grown ROSTERS
and eggs that have been sitting around
in hot place and acquiring an odor
that cast iron man would not mistake
for after of roses are put into the hop
per of a machine that works something
like carpet renovator, and when they
come out at the other end they are
hastily bottled and sold to the par
ticular people who make angel food
and such delicacies.
To make an egg over again is about
the last thing you would expect sci
ence to do, but it has done 1t all the
same, and still you hear people in this
enlightened country bowling for a
pure food law.

CURTIS sUSTAINs FRACTURE.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Feb. 6.-Joe Curtis,
the unluckiest man who ever played
football for Michigan, fell on the side
walk yesterday. and probably broke his
leg again in the same place where it
was fractured during the practice just
before the big contest with Pennsyl-
vania. DR.. Childs says the seriousness
Of the big mans injury cannot be es-
tablished until the X-ray is put upon
the leg, but if it is not new break
it is surely very serious sprain.
Curtis was ruled out of the Chicago
game Of 1906. and was prevented by his
recent injury from playing against
Pennsylvania this year.
