The hackers Of Cans in his recent
battle with Nelson had plenty to
hope for from the past record Of
the chocolate ex-champion, for Joe
of bring home the bacon fame" is
the original come back kid. He has
been sort of an avenging angel Of
his own, and after IL years in the
ring has wiped his slate clean of
every defeat except the last one.
Fighters began to pick off the
budding champion way back in
1895, but every one who ever beat
him was pursued relentlessly.
George Siddons was the first chip
in the path of the oyster opened by
getting draw with him July Is,
1895. Joe could not get another
match soon enough, and knocked
him out November % of that year
Young Critic thought he would
put crimp in the then famous ris-
ing lightweight, but all his clever
ness only won him two draws. Cans
finally defeated him In eight rounds
at Coney island in 1900.
Del Hawkins took a fling at Cans
in 1896, and set him back consider
ably by winning in Is rounds After
Cans had wiped Critic out in 1900
he went after Hawkins and
knocked him out in three rounds at
New York, August 81 of that year.

INDIANS HIT THE
BALL AND WIN OUT

Johnny Killilay BANKED the
Black Cats, 2 to 0, yesterday with
apparent ease. He had one of his
good days when he's little bit the
best pitcher in the league. The
Cats got only four hits from him,
all singles. On the other hand, the
Indians found Pernoll for five hits
and accumulated two runs in the
first inning.
Stevens walked, Hulen sacrificed
and Burnett sent a high one out
to Van Buren,, who muffed it,
Clynes sent one of his stingers be-
tween Campbell and Brown, and
they played Alphonse and CASTOR
until neither got it. Stevens
scored. James scored Burnett with
rap into right.

SECOND HUSBAND
DUPLICATES FIRST

MUNCIE, Ind, Sept. 11.-Mrs.
John Raisor has had the unusual
experience of being married to two
men of the same name who are in
no way related and neither of them
has seen the other. This fact came
out when the woman applied to the
county clerk for a license to wed
John Raisor, a Muncie man.
She said that she had married an
other John Raisor in Kentucky a
few years ago and had been di-
vorced from him. The second hus-
band said that he knew nothing of
the first.

Vancouver won the third straight

the score of 3 to 1. Erickson al

He was wild, but Tacoma did not
profit on that account until the

then a single filled the bases, and
he damned one into a fellows stats,
forcing in Tacoma's lone run. The
Canadians got nine hits off Butler.

MA7TERS0N AGAIN
TELLS HIS VIEWS
Editor Herald:

Editor Herald:
Some days ago asked through the
columns of your paper few ques-
lions of the school board and super
intendent regarding this ten months
term of school.
They have SO far shown DISPOSE
ton to dodge the questions. Why is
it that they refuse to give to the
patrons an answer to fair questions?
Director Haasze tells why the term
for this year can not be changed, and
further states his opinion for the
next term. Mr.. Haasze certainly
shows the spirit of man. He hopes
that this agitation will draw larger
number of the voters out to election.

What is harmony? Is it "one

the welfare of the boys and girls who

the matter. Another point: Mr.. /
