Last Race
There We're nine starters in the dash
for the 2:30 PAGERS, and they got away
to a good start. Kid Dillon, little
3-year-old that looks enough like Lou
Dillon to be a twin brother, surprised
every one by the way he stepped off in
the crowd and led to the quarter, but
there was carried off his feet, but
caught and was one of the contending
horses to the half. At the head of the
stretch 1t looked like anybody's race,
and down the stretch to the long dis
lance There Silveretta took the
lead and won, Kid Dillon finishing
fourth Considering that the colt never
saw a track till week ago, and really
showed up wonderfully in such big
field of horses.

| Ad Wolgast VS.. Young Kid Mccoy
at 124 pounds.
Clarence English VS.. Fred Ward at
catchweights.
Jack OKeefe VS.. Frank Mantel at
catchweights.
This also is an attractive card, with
main event lighters in every bout. 1t Is
probable that one or two six-round
pTeliminaries will be added Monday,
but the real card is complete, and II Is
a jim dandy without any preliminaries.
Wolgast seems to have picked a soft
one for himself, but those who have
seen Mccoy in action will not believe
it until Ad proves it. as the youngster
has shown much promise in his local
appearances and 1t a natural fighter,
with a game heart. Fderrie Welsh Will
train Mccoy for the scrap, and that
means that the youngster will have the
benefit of the sage advice and counsel
of the great little English champion.
English and Ward should furnish
highly interesting and exciting battle,
as both are clever and excellent slug
gers, and will go at a merry clip until
one of them is finished, nobody really
believing that the bout will go the
| limit. English showed his class when
he so decisively WHIPPED George Her
berts recently at Maud Junction while
Ward practically is a new one TO the
fans. Ward has a great record in the
north but never has fought locally.
O'Keefe and Mantell will meet in
return match, and since O'Keefe gave
him a good drubbing when they met
few nights since, Mantell probably Will
take the trouble to train properly for
the scrap, and a great battle should
result. Mantell whipped Honey Melody
| by the dreamland route, and when fit
and ready is hard proposition for any
scrapper In his class to solve. OKeefe
is one of the cleverest near-welters in
the business, and although Mantell out
weighs him, Jack feels sure that he will
repeat when they meet again.
Hugo Kelly arrived yesterday from
Frisco, accompanied by Molly Nc
Donald. who will train him for his fight
December IA with Billy Papke at YER
non. Hugo stopped over in Frisco to
attend the Papke- Ketchell scrap ana
was much surprised when Stanley
knocked out the champion. Having
fought both men he thought Papke
would be able to repeat with Ketchell.
Kelly will start training tomorrow at
Jack Doyles club on the south side, but
will not get into boxing works for two
or three days, as he has not selected
his training partners vet.

for loss by Northcroft, who broke
through the army line. An on-side play
gave the navy the ball on their 35yard
line. On q fake kick Lange got around

end. but failed. Dalton punted to the
armys 20-yard line and Runecke took
Meyers place at left guard.
Greble kicked to midfeld, and the.
navy, failing to gain, was forced to
kick, giving army the ball on the 80
yard line. Besson went In at left
tackle in Burnes' place. Dean failed
on an end run and Greble punted to the
navy's 45-yard line. Clay secured the
ball and carried it back three yards
and the navy was penalized fifteen
yards for holding. An exchange of
punts and the navy again had the ball
in mdheld. a plunge failed, as did
also a fake kick, and Dalton was forced
to kick. Stewart here went in for
Leighton. Nix went in for Moss place

skirted navy's left end for fifteen yards
and then Greble made six more at
the same place. Jones was injured in
the tackle and Carey took his place at
left for the navy. Dean failed to gain
at center, and Greble punted to navy's
20-ya1d line where Lange fumbled but
saved the ball for the navy by falling
on it.
Clay went around army's right end

Los Angeles herald., 1908-11-29

There was no difficulty whatever in
getting the boys to agree upon terms
and conditions for the scrap. Memslc
only recently returned from the east to
take up a winter campaign here and
Hyland arrived in Los Angeles last
Thursday with the same intention.
Previous to Hyland's arrival, Memsic
had asked the local promoters to match
him with the fighting kid, and as both
boys are anxious to get back in har-
ness without delay, they readily agreed
upon the terms and conditions that
will govern their battle.
There was a time, less than two
years ago, when Memsic could have
furnished a $4,000 side bet for a scrap
with Battling Nelson and Jimmy Britt,
local sportsmen believing that he could
stop both of them in one night, and
this offer was made to both boys, but
they declined it. At that time Memsic
was at his best and was looked upon
as the only near champion in the light
weight division. He went back east,
however, and has not done much in
the last eighteen months. He now
wants to go back to the top and even
tually get a match with Mcfarland
and Nelson.
Memsic always has been accounted a
clever boxer and a speedy and hard
hitting fighter. 1t was because of these
facts that he was given a good chance
to defeat Joe Cans when they fought
in the local ring quite long time ago.
He still has his cleverness and wallop
and probably is as speedy as ever. If
he will train back into condition. II is
probable that the winner will draw
Freddie Welsh as his next opponent.
Hyland has been fighting with great
success for two or three years and
ranks among the best in his division.
He is a growing youngster and IS
spreading out remarkably fast. He is
much heavier than when last seen here,
when he was in the 12S130-pound class
He is cleverly awkward fighter and
possesses a wallop that has excited
fear in the hearts of many of his ri
walls When he and Memsic hook up
there will be a real fight, and ten
rounds should enable one of them to
win decisively.

McCarey also completed his card for
Friday night, which viii be staged at

A New Use for a New Iioht.

One of the largest cigar manufac-
 turing firms in the world has solved
 the hitherto impossible task of pack ing cigars by night under artificial | light. Previously this work could
 only be done in the day time, and
 then only under the most favorable conditions. The men trusted with the shading, sub-shading and packing of cigars worked only a few hours of
 the day. Their benches were To-
 cated near large windows on the
 north side of the factories, away from the brilliancy of actual sun
 shine. and on cloudy days, or when
 it began to get the least bit dusky, the work had to be suspended alto gether. This inconvenience was one of the most serious drawbacks to the cigar industry. The factories would work night and day, if neces- Sary, but the sorting and grading of the finished product before shipping could only be done in the pure light of perfect day.
 In one of the large cigar factories in Columbia, Pa, only a few weeks ago the work of packing finished cigars was far behind, owing to in tense smoke from the great forest fires which practically hid the sun. The superintendent of the factory was discussing his troubles with the superintendent of the electric light station, which led easily into a talk on the merits of the new metal fila ment electric lights. As a result of this argument an Illuminating engi- neer from Harrison, N. J., was called in and asked to make a series of tests in the factory, utilizing the new lamps, to see if any of them were suitable for the difficult task of sorting and packing cigars.
 All the new types of electric lights which have been developed in the past few years were given a thorough test, but it was not until the new Tungsten electric incandescent lamps were used that the experiment show ed any signs of success A number of new Tungsten lamps were sus- pended directly over the sorting ta- bles. They gave a pure white light. winch is very closely allied with actual sunshine. and every color of the spectrum, with every degree of shade and tint. stood out as clearly as though the sun was shining. After several hours, wherein not one of the experts could detect any flaw in the work, the cigars sorted under the l

rays from the Tungsten lamps were laid aside until the next day. A careful inspection of the latter under the natural rays of Old Sol failed to disclose single mistake. The work, done the night before was pronounc- ed perfect, and an order was imme- diately given for the wiring of the sorting room and the installation of Tungsten lamps.
 When it is considered that this has never been accomplished in the past by any known artificial light. Col umbia, Pa, consequently places her sef Tn the lead in adopting pro- gressive ideas.
 The cigar industry is one of the last to awaken to the importance of utilizing a pure light. Stores, where articles of clothing or apparel are sold, have already adopted the Tung- sten lights that their customers may select the daintiest of shades at night without the disappointment of find ing that the cloth looks altogether different the next day. After all, the matter of color is of primary i'm portance for such classes of commer- cial work. even if the new lights do burn at considerable economy over the old incandescent, consuming two thirds less current for a given amount of light and cutting two thirds off the electric light bills, for even if these new lights did cost more to use, instead of less, they would be of priceless value where color is of sig nal importance.

maining member of the original firm, began the transaction of it's business in the days when prosperity was yet to be demonstrated in this valley. though it has been long expected and his con fidence has been unshaken from the first. That he has been successful in business is apparent from the fact that he has been glad enough to continue it and is more confident and enthusiastic now than ever before.
 The newly organized company begins its cooperative labors modestly and without boastfulness of large things to be accomplished all at once, though, it hopes to share proportionately to it's efforts and investments in that certain prosperity, that is now assured in lib- eral measure for all who devote them selves assiduously to business and who are equipped to carry out the plans of their own cOnceiving, or that oppor- tunity shall present to them.

 also been extensively engaged in placer

 rich was an intimate acquaintance of
 the Kings in Washington and in due
 time sought to make that acquaintance more effectual through a matrimonial alliance with the daughter of Mir. and
 Mrs. C. B. King. To do so meant a visit to Phoenix, their nuptials being celebrated here several months ago. But life in Washington was not the same to either Mr. or Mrs. Goodrich after having seen and appreciated the pleasures and opportunities of the Salt river valley. He resigned his position with the railwoy company and is now here to make Phoenix his home.
 The other new member of the firm. Edward Pohlman, of the POhlman In vestment Co, is a stock broker of Spo- kane, Wash. and realty dealer who has had intimate business relations with C. B. King for long time and who in the course of them, came down here to see him not long ago. He is too com petent a man not to appreciate the op- portunities offered here in the special lines of activity he has been devoted to in the north. He has lage interests there hich he cannot well desert but Is fortunately in circumstances that will enable him to have two homes and he has compromised between duty and pleasure by agreeing with himself to spend his summers up north and his winters in or near Phoenix. Not being content to spend any great length of time where he has no business to at tend to he has decided to follow the Arizona band wagon also, and will ap- pear during the winter prOcessions in the Taylor Bergman float. keeping his reserved seat paid for during his ab- sence in the summertime.
