ching in reserve to-day until the sew
enth round. and even then he only
used it a few times.
1t may be, of course, that he felt
he could do without it and wanted
to be as merciful as possible, but ia
king the whole thing into considera.
ton the writer never saw the Johnson
uppercut so little in evidence.
LITTLE OF EVERYTHING.
1t is doubtful at that if Johnson
ever gave us fight in which he was
seen in better variety. He showed us
little of everything and it was all
gilt-edge. Poor Ketchel must have
forgotten at times that it was his mis-
sion in life to-day to force Johnson to
lead. This because, when Johnson,
on occasions took to feint, as only
Johnson can feint, Ketchel would be-
gin whipping his gloves to and fro
sideways and blinking as though
punches were coming from he knew
rot where. In boxing Ketchel was
thoroughly outclassed, and before two
rounds had gone by it was evident
that his one hope rested in being able
to land just one swing. When John
son held out his two hands as he did
in the affair with Kaufman and Ket-
chel swung at his body, the lighter
mans gloves fell full foot short Of
the mark. When Johnson holds a
man at bay in this manner the cham
pion's arms seem to be as long as
oars.
In the clinch fighting again Ketchel
discovered that Johnson knows more
in one round than the average fighter
learns in a career. Without actually
taking a grip of a hand or arm, John
eon placed his gloves against Ketchel's
biceps or shoulders and used pressure
which rendered Ketchel as helpless as
though he were tied with ropes
Ketchel as a rule is away above
the age at clinch-ighting, but to-day
he was powerless. He wasn't pin
toned exactly, and yet he couldn't free
his fighting machinery, and all the
time Johnson was looking down into
the little mans face and chuckling de
risively. There were other things
about those clinches. They gave an
idea Of Johnson's immense strength
as we'll. Several times he lifted Ket
chel playfully. off his feet and slung
loosens his teeth. Johnson kept that
him around. Once when Ketchel's

legs became entangled when the men
were graphing. Johnson picked Kei
chel up with one arm, and placed
him squarely on his feet
Johnson has always assured his
friends that Jeffries' strength has no
tcrrors for him. After watching the
champion closely in his recent fight,
it seems to me that even big-framed
Jeffries will not be able to take any
liberties with Johnson when they lock
arms and begin to pull and haul.
WHAT MEN SAY
In his dressing-room after the fight,
Johnson said:
'He is a good puncher and strong
man. must say that he has given
me a sorer chin than l ever had be-
FORE" and he rubbed his swollen
jaws reflectively.
"He can take some heavy blows"
continued the champion. "See here"
and he showed one of his gloves sod
den with Ketchels blood. There were
several cuts on the leather "That's
where I uppercut him in the mouth"
said Johnson.
Ketchel said after he recovered that
a chance blow had finished him. 81
am in a better condition than John
son now" he said. Look at him.
He is dead. But for that one blow
would have beaten him"
The fight attracted the greatest crowd
in years. Over 10000 persons were
ranked about the walls and overfowed
the seats. Fully 5000 were turned
away. Promoter Coffroth stated after
the fight that $4,000 had been taken
in.

MASONIC SOCIAL CLUB
TO DISBAND SOON
Popular Gary Organization
to Give Way to Insti-
tuted Lodge.

A meeting of the Gary Masonic So
cial club was held last night at the
Gary hotel. The meeting was called
for the purpose of discussing the feast
bility of continuing the club now thai
the Masonic lodge has been organized
in Gary.
Although last night many of the
members were of the opinion that the
club would in no way interfere with
the Masonic lodge, the majority ruled
and 1t was decided that the club would
exist no more after the next meeting
which will be held in May. AT that
time the club will give its farewell
banquet and smoker, which will be
given for the club members only. AT
that time a big celebration will he
given to mark the passing of the club.
A special meeting will be called in the
near future to make arrangements and
to appoint committees for the affair.
The Masonic social club has been in
existence in Gary nearly two years and
now has a membership of nearly I25
1t has been one of Gary's most popular
social organizations, and one from
which many BENEFITS and social entov-
ments have been derived. When Gary
was in its infancy, 1t might be said.

GET CHEMISTS LETTER
Elk Sheriff F S. Carter Com
municates With State
Chemist Barnard.

Ex-Sheriff F. S. Carter is in receipt
of a letetr from Harry Everett Barn.
ard. state chemist. in which he states
that the water from Carter and CIark's
St John springs has been tested and
viii make most excellent drinking wat
er.
After giving the composition of the
water the report states: IT is an ex-
cellent water. 1t is of unusual purity
in every respect. except the presence
of lime salts. which causes very high
hardness"
As the water is not to be used for
washing purposes. the fact that it is
very hard does not impair 1t in the
least. In fact. it adds the mineral
quality that makes it most excellent
drinking water.
Messrs Carter and Clark are very
much pleased with the analysis. and
think they will be able to dispose Of a
large quantity of their water when the
people compare it with the city water.

JACK ANDREWS PROVES
A GENEROUS WINNER
Especial to THE TrMEs.)

East Chicago. Ind. April 15.-This is
story with pathetic features but a
good ending, and it deals with a fam
lily who, through misfortune, affliction
and poverty were compelled to rattle off
one of their dearest possessions only
to have it returned to them with a
polite note from the winner. stating
that they could keep It, or rattle 1t off
again. or in fact do what they chose
with It, as its return was without re-
struction.
Edward TASTE was a locomotive en-
gineer. who lived with his family in
Forsythe avenue. Three years ago his
mind became unbalanced and he was
sent, after trial for sanity, to the asy-
lum at Logansport. His family some
time after left East Chicago and not
long ago the former friends of the
family in East Chicago received let
tiers from Mrs waste stating that she
was forced to raise a little money for
Immediate wants and that in order to
do so she was about to rattle off her
husbands valuable watch. Jack An

The first gun of the battle was fired

Marshall is out of the city, but the
friends and political hackers of Cullen
are leaving word for him SO that he

The story has been going the rounds
to the effect that Cullen stands a good
chance of being appointed a member
OF the Indiana railroad commission to
succeed w. ]. Wood. whose term ex-
pires on May 1. Last Sunday an in

in which Cullen was quoted as saw

Cullen talked with the reporter for
the paper but he did not say what

feared that if the governor got sight
