The Sword of CORVALLIS.

Art is not always true to history.
SchoOlboys of several generations are
familiar with tie picture of CORVALLIS
surrendering bis sword to Washington
after the fall OF Yorktown. Lord Corn
wallis is revealed i'm the act of passing
over his beautiful sword to the hand
of his conqueror. The inference is that
Washington took the sword and kept
1t as trophy of victory. The facts
are quite otherwise.
CORVALLIS, proud even in defeat, de
clined to put in a personal appearance
on the occasion of his surrender. The
allied forces. American and French
who had besieged him for thirteen
days. were drawn up in two columns
along the road leading to Hampton
Rochambeau. on a fine bay horse. was
at the head of the French column. On
his white charger sat Washington at
the head of the American troops. The
surrendered British and Hessians
marched out of their intrenchments
and passed down between the two col
umns
Many thousands of Virginian citizens
were gathered to watch the scene all
eager to get a glimpse of Lord Corn
wallis. But they were disappointed in
that. CORVALLIS pleaded indisposition
and stayed in his quarters. He sent
his sword by one of his officers. Gen.
eral O'1ara. to be. delivered up tC
Washington. General O'Hara offered
the sword to Washington. who direct
ed him to General Lincoln, the Officer
whom Washington had appointed tC
conduct the surrender. Lincoln tool
the sword from O'Hara's hand and
then politely handed it back. to be re
turned to CORVALLIS.

through in wild disorder, one after the

In a moment all was confusion. Mrs.

dash for the kitchen. Carruthers hest

tightly.
He looked down into the blue eyes
and the rosy lips which had just made
him so happy when suddenly from out
of the heavens he seemed to fall to
earth with a sickening thud.
ooh, my Bobbiel My dear, dear Bob
bic! Save him, some One!' cried Hulda
Carruthers looked at the girl once
more to make quite sure the cry came
from her. There was no mistake She
wanted Livingston.
"Where is he?" demanded Car
rutbers huskily.

Carruthers waited for no more. His

AS he reached the kitchen he found

Turning to Mr.. Roberts, he asked for
him
"Oh, Livingston was here just a mo-
ment ago" said Mr.. Roberts. but |
think he said he was going for a
walk"
The men all returned to the main
part of the house, assuring the ladies
that it was nothing. Carruthers went
over to Hulda.
"Where's Bobbie?" she asked, with
great concern.
Hes gone began Carruthers.

FOR JOHNSON FIGHT
Undefeated Heavyweight Has Recov-
cred from Cold and viii Leave
Soon for England-ls in
Fine Shape

PARIS, Sept. 30.--James ]. Jeffries,
the American heavyweight, who has
been training for his proposed fight
with Jack johnson, said today that ne
had almost completely recovered from
the cold which he contracted several
days ago while attending the races. he
will leave for London next Tuesday,
and will sail for the United States on
October 18.
Jeffries said that he had been work.
ing hard both at Carlsbad and here,
and that he is most anxious for hght
with Johnson. He added, however,
that nothing has been settled deh-
nitely.
Jeffries expressed himself as disap-
pointed at the meager offer OF $4,000
for a fight, saying:
81 am the champion Of the world.
/ have everything to lose and nothing
to gain. Therefore 1 don't want to
fight for a purse of less than $l5O,OO0.
That is the sum first proposed, out
since l have been training my adver-
saries appear less keen. believe,
however, that 1 will make match
as soon as 1 reach New York. l
should prefer to fight In America
rather than in Australia, and have
reason to believe that the governors
of several states would be willing to
allow a fight to take place"
Jeffries said that he considered him
self in splendid physical condition.
"I am quicker than 1 ever was,' he
added, land am confident that can
lick Johnson"
To friends with whom he discussed
the fight Jeffries repeatedly declared
the only thing he feared was man

WILD BILL WILL GET
HIS SURE AT CATALINA
Claims He Is the One Best Bet on the
Strong Arm, but Bill Is Against
Worse Than Badly

Strutting about with hat cooked OF
the side of his head, with sigar foot
long, and inviting some one to knock
the Mount Baldy chip off the shoulder
of the winner of the famous cup race,
is all right in way, but 1T won't count
much when Saturday night comes
around for Wild Bill Ruess. Bill is
somewhat of a husky young man In
physical construction, and neither will
that count much for what is going to
happen. Wild Bill is an enthusiastic
Mason, knight Templar and all that
but Bill has had the temerity to sign
an application for membership in that
order called the Ancient Arabic Order
of the Mystic Shrine, and Bill is to be
initiated on Saturday night at Catalina
when the mobiles hitch up their camels
and proceed by way of the railway to
that resort where the biggest liars on
earth hail from, because it is the scene
of the greatest fish catching stories on
the face of this earth.
They do say that the mobiles "do
things" to those joining this ancient
order. Fat, good-natured Bill looked
good to them. Bill has had the bad
Judgment to make the remark publicly
what he would do and what he would
not do when the Shriner. brigade got
really down to their heavy work. II
Pill was told that he was coming to
low bridge and to step high" Bill made
the remark that he would like to see
"those fellows make him do 1t.
AS a result the working corps of the
local Shrine has been in training for
some time under the careful supervision
of an all-wise physical trainer, boxer,
etc, and when Bill comes to the part
where he is told to "step high Bill
like a little child will raise his tootsy-
wootsies and obey like lamb. When
he is commanded to stoop, that ne rs is
about to pass below a low bridge, Bill
will down on his hands and knees for
the first time in 10, these many, many
years, and don't anybody forget it..
Every noble has purchased a steel body
frame for the occasion, to keep their
sides from bursting at what Wild Bill
Is Going to do othem guys" at Catalina
and his wife won't be able to recog-
nize him for month after his return
from Catalina; mark that down.

SULLIVAN BROTHERS WILL
INVADE SAN FRANCISCO
Gene and Dan to Start North Satur-
day-Report That Montana Jack
Was Knocked Out Untrue

Gene and Dan Sullivan, the pugilistic
brethren, will leave Saturday for San
Francisco, where they have in view
several prospects for attractive
matches. Dan Sullivan has been Of
fered a go with Frank Mantell, the
Rhode Island middleweight, before a
West Oakland club, and probably will
accept. Mantell has improved ma
terially in the last six months, hold
ing a twenty-round decision and a
twenty-round draw with Jack CTWin)
Sullivan to his credit
Gene denies the statement that he
intends to quit the ring for a time.
He says he will seek engagements
with any of the good lightweights
available in the north. The two boys
will return to Los Angeles in few
weeks, and Gene is anxious to take
another crack at Charlie Norvel. Sui
livan asserts that should Sam Coulter
be matched with Norvel, as has been
proposed, Coulter will win. Gene has
fought both men within a month, and
he ought to know. Sullivan claims
Coulter can hit just as hard and is a
much cleverer fighter.
From Montana Jack Sullivan
brother of Gene and Dan, comes an
authoritative denial of the story puo-
lished in a morning paper that he had
been knocked out in a fight at Wich-
ita, Kans. This battle took place on
September 23. and on this date Jack
was far away from Kansas, In fact,
the night following the bout he acted
as timekeeper in the Maurice Thomp-
son-Kid Opie battle at Butte, quite
some distance from the Kansas town.
Evidently some jealous person must
have adopted Montana Jacks name
for the occasion.

POMONA FOOTBALL
PLAYERS IN TRIM
Freshmen to Play Occidental Team
Saturday at Baer Park-Prepara-
tions to Meet Throop at
Pasadena

With the annual class game out of
the way, the Pomona college football
squad is for the first time settling
down to real work. Three teams are
out every night and the gridiron pre-
sents an active appearance. The pre-
paratory team is making active prep
arations for it's schedule, which has
been prepared by Manager Metcalfe,
the first game of which comes off next
Saturday afternoon at Pasadena with
the Throop Institute team. At the
same time on Baer park the Pomona
Freshmen meet the Occidental Fresh
men in what would be the third an
nual game if the Tiger Freshmen had
not forfeited the game last year.
While these two teams are practicing
Coach Stanton is making strenuous
efforts to whip a team into shape for
the first practice game of the season,
which will be played next Monday
with Azusa High. No freshmen will
be played in this game.
At present the probable lineup will
be as follows: Gillette, who played
sub center last year will resume his
old position, with Kepner and A. r.
Davis on either side of him. Captain
Filler and Hentsche are sure of their
position at tackle, while the ends will
be picked from H. Davis, Graf and
Pierce, with the odds in favor of the
former. Shut at quarter will direct
the team, with Parker and Carver as
halfbacks and Seward, the star 1912
full, holding that position.
