wonder how long the public will
continue to fall for this heavy
weight fight bull?
1t seems to me it's about time to
call halt on the advertising of
Messrs. Jeffries, Johnson & Co.,
vaudeville specialists. And this
goes for the vaudeville trust, too.
Publicity's good thing, but
enough is too much. When the fight
ers sign to fight-if they ever do
and go into training. then it will be
time for the air pumps to go to
work.
Just because Johnson beat Burns
and staked dubious claim to a
championship; just because Jeffries
is wise enough to get a timber hitch
upon $4,000 week contract; just
because Bill Delaney sheds check
as forfeit for Kaufman; just be-
cause Ketchell touched off bottle
of soup" under the Philadelphia
crook and shocked him into a cata-
leptic condition, does not furnish an
excuse for us to stir up all the bats
In our belfry over the possibility of
another mussing match.
If, and / call your attention to
that word If" If Jack Johnson
signs for a fight with someone 1t
will be next fall before they can
get together. Johnson may be the
biggest ounce that the orchard
ever produced. but we've got to
stand for him for some months
cause why? Well, because Jack
can see many hog shanks and sacks
of hominy in $4,000 week, and
that's what he'll get as long as you
and | are foolish enough to pay
four bits to see him punch a bag or
tap Kid Cutler on the beak.
Working the public is not new.
Some men work at it regularly, like
a colony of bacteria in cheese.
Just now they are laboring for the
benefia Of Johnson, Jeffries and the
theatrical managers.
They've got to show me some
thing.
I'm not knocker, but l hate to
see them getting away with this
bunk. Why, a good, smooth conieon
would be ashamed to take such
money.
If you want to see Johnson when
he comes to town, lok at him on
the street. Johnson and Jeff are
being danced at the end of the
string, same as You dance a doll IN
front of the baby, for the purpose
OF easing your money into the kick
OF the men behind the box office.

There is the further fatal OBJ

CAN'T HELP BUT
SLAM THE BALL

The Idaho college team made
Just a nice little workout yester-
day for the Indians. The latter
piled up 18 runs and then slowed
down and gave the boys chance
for the seven scores they made In
the last two innings. Prior to that
time the Indians had been ham,
mering everything Hansen sent
over, while Holm and Jensen had
things their own way. Jensen
loafed and let the boys go to it.
They are husky lot of boys,
but the Indians this year are moth
ing to fool with. The way they
lap the ball looks like pennant
rags floating high. Bobbie James
tore off four hits yesterday merely
to see how he felt for Saturday,
when the Aberdeens open here,
and Weed struck the same sort of
gait. With game with the high
school this afternoon and another
with Idaho tomorrow the Indians
will be through with the pre-
liminaries and the big show we've
been waiting all winter for will
be on.

AID IS $4,000 SURE HE
CAN WHIP ABE

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, April
IA year ago there was fighter
battling around Milwaukee who
wasn't considered as amounting to
very much. Today AID. Wolgast
has his foot en- the very tep of the
championship ladder at 1872 pounds.
And hard work, combined with
determination to stick, is what has
placed him where he Is today.
Wolgast got his first start on
promising career by whipping
Harry Baker of San Francisco In
a 10 round bout. Baker had been
considered invincible. Then VOL
CAST forsook his native town and
came west. In Los Angeles he met
Abe Attell and while there was
great difference of opinion as to
the result Of the fight, 1t was gen.
trally conceded that in longer
fight Abe would have to acknowl.
edge Wolgast as his master.
Wolgast hasn't allowed the gla-
NOR of the limelight to affect his
head. He is an unassuming boy.
At present he has one ambition in
life and 1t is to meet and whip
Attell decisively. To further this
end he is iwlling to bet Abe $4,000
that he can beat him In a 40 round
encounter, Attell hasn't fallen over
himself taking up the offer.

ST. LOUIS, April 14.-Today
with the opening of the 1909 base
ball season, the Cleveland club of
the American league is about to
uncover one of those rare birds
found once In generation-a
great catcher.
Star pitchers. infielders and out
fielders are common, but first-water
backstops may be counted upon
the fingers of one hand.
Bresnahan, King, Criger, Sulli-
van are the only~m men playing to-
day who can be classed with Buck
Ewing, Charlie Bennett, Silver
Flint and the stars of yore.
The youngster who threatens to
break into this exclusive set is Ted
Easterly, who last season was the
star backstop of the Los Angeles
team. He is the most promising
young backstop of the Los Angeles
team. He Is the most promising
Young backstop in the majors to-
day.

the Lee County
Meeting.
BANQUET ENJOYED

nishcd Program Follow
ing Spread.

The doctors OF Keokuk we're just
about unanimous in their attendance
at the meeting yesterday at Donnell-
son of the Lee County Medical Society
and it seemed that other towns in the
county were equally generous. From
Fort Madison there were nine, from
various points other than Keokuk and
Fort Madison seven, and several from
Van Buren, County.
The meeting is reported as being
the best ever held by the society,
both from a business standpoint and OF
social nature. The program carried
out as printed in The Gate City some
time ago was one of interest to the
medical profession. The society also
indorsed the action Of Fort Madison in
endeavoring to get new hospital
there under the new state law.
A banquet was enjoyed at the. Metno-
dist church of -Donnellson and proved
the most enjoyable affair Of the day.
A number of the Monday Music club
members of this city went to Donnell-
son and furnished an excellent musical
program following the banquet. Those
|.ptesahtt were the following web

ment and have been so beneficial tina
