PROFITS TO BE REDUCED.
Canteen on Warships to Be Put on
Official Basis.

An order just issued by the Secretary
of the Navy places the canteens on ships
of war on an official basis. Hitherto
these canteens have been cooperative
stores, conducted by representatives of
the enlisted men for their own benefit.
The purchases Of articles for sale in the
canteens have been made usually by chief
yeomen. There has been complaint of
that method of acquiring stock because
the profits have been regarded as exces-
sive, in some instances more than 80 per
cent. The profit, however. has been used
for the welfare of the crew In acquiring
extra base ball suits and athletic appa-
ratus. theatrical outfits and other things
which contribute to the entertainment of
the enlisted men.
The new system goes into effect July l.
The profits are limited to 10 per cent
and they must be turned into the public
treasury. The old stock will continue to
yield a profit for about two years, and
that will continue to be employed for the
benefit of the enlisted men. At the end
of that period other means will be devised
for the entertainment OF the enlisted
force. The direct advantage of the new
system is that it will be under official
control and that the articles sold in the
canteen can be obtained at less cost
than hitherto. Athletic apparatus is sup
piled by the government.

Jack johnson, like all the great
pugilists who climbed up the old cham
pionship ladder rung by rung, was
forced 10 play many an artful ruse and
take all manner Of chances in his
early career before he made his first
nick in the hall Of fame. He tried
the double cross, figured in several bat
ties royal. and found himself penniless
and hungry at different times. In fact.
il took Johnson about u years Of trials
and tribulations to reach the goal
which he always had in mind. but

rolled by.

stepped into the ring 10 act as referee
and after instructing the two shines
sent them away and the first real fight
that the present heavy weight cham
pion ever figured in was on.
Well the first round proved one of
the most tedious that any fan ever
viewed. The boxers stalled and side
stepped around and neither struck a
blow The spectators, though disap-
pointed, were patient. believing that
the men We're simply feeling each other
out and that they would wade in short

they should.
But the second period was even a

feinted At his man and stepped away
as the latter tore off one big swing
after another. II was something fierce
and everybody in the house was up on
his feet and yelling fake"
The New York sport who was paving
for the show took Hall to one side
and quietly informed him that unless
he gave the crowd some action the
$500 would be held out Hall needed
this money badly and he did not know
