Milwaukee Promoters Discussing Box
ing on the Eastern System.


Milwaukee, Oct. 14.-Boxing may
be resumed in this city under the
"censorized' system, if plans of the
promoters do not miscarry. AS COM
promise with the governors attitude, it
has practically been decided not to
open for some time, but later to at
tempt the game under methods similar
to those prevailing in the east.
Just whether boxing bouts will be
permitted before bona fide athletic
clubs remains to be seen. The COVER
nor's order to Sheriff Knell was to stop
prize fghting.' The Milwaukee Ath-
1etic club has it's regular boxing show
set for October 81, and the Eagles
have some bouts scheduled for the
benefit of the order alone. Neither
organization has yet called off the
programmes, the members of the Mil
waukee Athletic club saying that it is
ridiculous to class amateur goes as
prize fights.
1t is suggested that six or ten round
bouts be held without decisions, as are
those of New York and Philadelphia
This. it is thought, will keep within
the law. But for the present it is in
tended to drop the game altogether so
far as the big clubs are concerned.
c. B. Willis, who led the fight on
boxing, says that he is not antagonistic
to Sunday baseball, but that he OPP
poses boxing as demoralzing. Criti-
cism caused by the barring OF a ca
Fable referee, simply because he hand
ed down an honest decision, has caused
some distrust of the game in quarters
where formerly it was tolerated

Joe Wood Drops Into Hutchinson and

A real big league baseball player is

Cor g.Ozone,O Wood, he of the. fade
away-ball, the young phenom who
first broke into the limelight while
pitching for the Salt, Packers year
ago, dropped into town last night. Joe
is on his way home from Boston,
where he is now employed by the Bos-
ton American league team to fool the
hitters of the other seven teams IN the
league.
It will be remembered that Joe was
sold by the local club to Kansas city
Just a year ago. After staying around
Kansas City long enough to prove him.

nous by pitching no-hit game, Joe
was purchased by Boston. He sun be
longs to the Beaneating aggregation.
Not only that but they paid Joe his
salary UP to next Thursday and gave
him a raise so that the youngster. just
now twenty years old, will get $500 a
month all of next season. Joe MADE
good in a hurry in his last game up
there in which he let Philadelphia
down with a single hit.
Toe isn't bit swelled up as one
might think he would be, coming all

On the other hand, it is the same old
joe who is shaking hands with his

that he likes the town and the team,
adding that his teammates are a fine

two to visit his brother, Harry Wood,
who is playing on the K. u. football

Secret Practice Also Ordered for West
Point Game

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 14.-Yale
football coaches held a conference to
wrestle with the problem of the back
wardness of the eleven. The attack
against Wesleyan, Syracuse and Holy
Cross has been almost fruitless and
several changes will Immediately be
made
Fred Murphy, halfback for two sea-
sons, will be moved to quarterback.
Brides will succeed Phillsin as half
back. Daily will get Murphy's place
at halfback, and Cooney probably will
be replaced at right guard by Buster
Brown. Both Bingham and Hopkins
have failed to show first class form at
quarterback and both Murphy and
Phillsin are being practiced in that
position.
Hobbs injury. compelling his re-
tirement from the Holy Cross game,
proves to be a sprained ankle and
there seems little chance that he will
be able to line up against West Point
Richardson of the second
eleven has been coming along fast re-
Gently and will be worked in his place.
Secret practice has been ordered for
the West Point game, and the gates at
Yale field probably will be closed daily
till the eleven leaves for New York

Aged Indian DepIores Slaughter OF
Game by White Men.

Lawton, Okla, Oct. 14.-The national
convention of the League of American
sportsmen, in tenth annual meeting
here, adjourned last night to meet next
September in Superior, Wis. A major
ity of the delegates are to remain the
rest of the week for a hunt in the
Wichita mountains. Geronimo the IA
nous Apache chief, visited the conven-
ton this afternoon and made brief
talk through an interpreter deploring
the slaughter Of American game by
white men.
To the end that the game and fish
laws of the several states and prov
ince of Canada may be uniform as IA -
as possible, the convention today adopt
ed resolutions recommending the fol-
lowing features for enactment into
laws by legislative assemblies:
Absolute prohibition of the sale of
game from one state to another excep
for propagating purposes only; estab-
hshment of a maximum bag limit: a
closed season to cover the entire breed

and into the Santa Fe junction depot.
Here the agent stated that a woman
and children answering the description,
had boarded a train for Salina at 8
O'Clock on the previous day. The dogs
not only trailed the woman to the de-
pot, but followed her on little side
trips to the homes of neighbors on the
way.
These dogs could not be expected to
pick the criminal from a collection of
trails" said Wilkerson recently. IF
properly introduced to a trail within a
reasonable length of time, they will
follow 1t. In cases where a number of
people have visited the scene of a
crime, the dogs are liable to pick the
trail of an innocent spectator, and
chase him up tree. But, should the
criminal leave some scrap of his per-
sonal wardrobe,-a hat, handkerchief or
even the scent of his hands,-in open
ing a door or window. the dogs would
sort his trail out of a hundred"
1t may be that the Wilkerson hounds
will never prove of great value If
they do. their services are gratis In
Shawnee county, and if they do not,
they cost the county nothing, as they
are the personal property of John WIKI
erson.

THE DOGS WORK WELL
shawnee County BIoodhOmds Do Well
in Practice.

John and Lucy" the bloodhounds
owned by Sheriff John Wilkerson, have
never been given a fair test after a
real criminal. but Sheriff John Wilker-
son frequently exercises them on prac-
tice runs after volunteer bait. The
above picture, taken from a photograph
by Strickrott, shows the dogsies, their
owner and the volunteer bait" at the
end of a two mile practice run. The
man in the tree, who may be dimly
seen through the leaves, had 40 min
utes' start before the dogs were placed
on his trail He back-tracked, dou-
bled. climbed fences and waded two
creeks before climbing to a place of
safety. Without hesitation the dogs
followed his every footstep, through
plowed ground, weeds and water, and
attempted to get the bait" by climbing
the tree. They had been on the ground
some time before the arrival of the
sheriff and Mr.. Strickrott, the latter
bent upon securing a photograph. The
dogs, in their enthusiasm, stuck too
closely to the trunk of the tree, and
picture. and it was necessary for the
sheriff to chain them and drag them
back into the sunlight.
Although these dogs have proven
their ability on several occasions to
trail white persons, their ability in
trailing negroes has never been tested.
Several colored men. friends Of the
sheriff have volunteered to act as
''bait," but he would not permit 1T, on
the grounds that the dogs were practi-
cally worthless in this country unless
they were a success in trailing white
persons.
On one occasion, the dogs have
proven of practical use. Some weeks
ago, w. Brannock, of North Topeka,
notified the sheriff that Mrs. Brannock
had left home, presumably to commit
suicide She was believed to have
jumped into the river with her two
small children. Nearly "a hours had
elapsed since her disappearance before
the sheriff was called into the case, but
the dogs followed the trail of the wo-
man and her children. through an al
ley, down a railroad track over which
many trains had passed in the interim,
