Picato and Wolgast entertained the
usual large crowds of fans at their
training camps yesterday afternoon
and each showed to excellent advan-
tage in the workouts. Picato, who is
working at Doyle's club on the south
side, never worked in public before,
and the fans have turned out in large
numbers TO see how the knockout kid
goes through his training stunts. He
is the same in training as when fight
ing-cool, quick and effective with his
punches, while showing a degree of
boxing ability that indicates he will be
able to defend himself from Wolgasts
wild rushes.
Wolgast says that he has trained
harder for this fight than for any in
which he has engaged since coming
west, realizing the big task ahead of
him. Ordinarily he puts in about flve
days of real work in the training camp,
but in this instance he has worked
consistently for ten days and shows to
even the casual observer that he is fit
to fight for his life. 1t will be no dis
grace for Wolgast to be whipped by
Picato, but it will cause a loss in pres
tige by indicating that he must con-
fine his activities to the feather diVi-
sion for a while longer, which he does
not desire to do. He is growing heav-
Ter right along and soon will be climb
ing into the lightweight division, this
scrap being an experimental one with
him in this regard.
The preliminary bouts are ususually
good, the semi-windup being a ten
round session between Freddie Cor
bett. who so handily defeated Kid Tex
a short time ago, and Kid Dalton. The
six-round session between Kid Cleve-
land, the clever negro bantam, and
Mike Kutcbos, the terrible Greek, also
should be an exciting bout. Two four
round bouts will open the show, being
as follows: Charley Burton VS.. Frank
Nelson and Kid Bell VS.. Dan Cullen.
Hefron-Webster April
The ten-round bout between Martin
Hefron and Danny Webster, to which
the fans are looking forward with
keenest anticipation, has been set
ahead of the original date, April 10,
and will be staged April 6. Hefron is
so anxious to get return battle with

games in major league style. Downey
was not as strong as usual, owing to
the fact that Pitcher Leonard had
severed his connections with the club
without any notice to the country
manager, so Downey was compelled
to work Pitcher Poe, formerly or the
Norwalk club, in both games. Scores:

''All the world loves a Iover''-and
his story.
Here is one of the prettiest tales in
the annals of romance, and it is a
real love story too.
1t is the romance of Arthur For
tesque, nephew of the Duke of Port
land. and Olga Vorinhoff, Doukhobor
maid of Canada.
Ten years ago Fortesque was a hand
some. dashing graduate of Oxford. In
his bones was the wanderlust. In
stead of settling down he went away
to Canada, seeking adventures.
In Quebec he heard much about those
strange people. the Doukhobors. The
story of their queer religious beliefs,
of persecution in Russia and of how
they came to Canada-this appealed -
Fortesque.
He determined to go on visit to
the community, study the people and
write book about them.
The book was never written.
One day in his travels through the
colony Fortesque came across a band
They were drawing a pillow and chant
ing in minor key as they toiled at the
ropes. When they passed the young
man his eyes rested for moment on
/ the sweet face of a girl in her teens.
The girl looked at him shyly, and he
i thought her face the most winsome be
| had ever seen.
/ The incident passed from his mind
/ Then one day in a little camp cabin
| far away the face of the girl flashed
on his memory. He could not forget
! it. Impulsively he started back to find
/ her. After a long search he succeeded
The young nobieman discovered that
this girl, Olga Yorinhoff. unaffected
and simple. was surprisingly sweet and
womanly. He could not rid himself
of her charm.
And one day, after weeks of self ex
animation and hesitancy, he took the
little woman into his arms and kissed
her.
Hearing of Fortesque's approaching
marriage to Olga, his old friends tried
to dissuade him. They told him his
| fancy for the maid would soon fade
But the nobleman and the girl were
married
The news went back to England, and
Fortesque was disinherited. Long be
fore he had adopted the simple Greco
of the Doukhobors and entered the
communal life.
The young man by reason of his edu
cation became a leader among the
pious people. He seems perfectly con
tented with the simple life and very
much in love with his pretty wife.
And here endeth the true tale Of thu
romance Of Arthur Fortesque, noble
man, and Olga Vorinhoff. maid.
