ES7XAlA TIES PICTURES
WILL BE WORTH HALF MILLION

Can't you just hear Jeffries,
Johnson, Richard ct al. murmuring,
Il love a prize fight, but oh you
moving pictmes?'
For it is upon the harvesting
quality of the picts that the
fighters and promoters count on
making the real big money. Given
a good day and good fight, the
way the public will eat up those
fight pictures is sinful.
G. l.. "Teex" Richard talks of
hundreds of thousands as glibly as
most men do about their weekly
envelope and its contents. lie says,
"Oh, | reckon we ought to make a
half a million, or better, Off the
pictures," without batting an eye.
Calculating upon this big return,
it's no wonder Richard and Jack
Gleason could offer 100000 and
&C per cent of the picture money
to the scrappers. Richard and
Gleason's third if the pictures
bring the sum expected will be
better than S167,666, while there
is reason to believe the European
rights are figured too cheaply, so
the chances are the pictures will
be worth near $4,000.
Rickard plans to make 25 sets of
films. These, according to his dope,
will lease for $1,000 a week each
for II weeks. 4 hen he plans to
lease ~ films for 5000 q week
When interest wanes films OF only
the best rounds will be made and
rented to vaudeville shows,
Like lot of shrewd .men, Rick
ard figures that if Jeffries wins
the pictures will be worth a lot

PETER TERWAY TO RUN AGAINST
TEN MEN ON NEW YEARS DA

been received for the race, with at
least 10 more expected by Physical
Director Kimble.
The five mile event seems to lie
between Peter Terway, Beauchamp,
Hoffman, Hupperton and Doris,
with Terway as the favorite.
The relay race will be pulled off
at $3.50 p. m. in the association
gymnasium between 10 men teams
from the Employed Boys and Stu
dent c gymnasium classes. Each
man will run a quarter of a mile,
making the race a two and half
mile affair.
TERWAY AFTER RECORD.
Peter Terway, the crack long dis
lance runner, will go after the 10
mile indoor record on New Years

The opening day of the year 1910
will witness a series of running
events under the auspices of the
Y. NJ. c. A. that will eclipse any
thing ever held in this city before
A five mile cross country run will
feature New Years morning, with
an indoor relay race between the
Employed Boys and Student c in
the afternoon, followed by 10
mile race at $50 p. m. between
Peter Terway, the MarathOner, and
10 picked association runners.
The cross country runners will
be started from the Y. NJ. c. A. at
1890 a. m, the course taking them
through Natatorium and to Fort
Wright, thence home the shortest
way. Twenty entries have already

night. when he runs against 10
picked men from the association,
under the leadership of Ben Doris.
Each association man will run a
mile, while Terway promises to
cross the tape ahead of the double
quintet. Beauchamp and nine of
the Y M. c. A. stars will run
against the Marathoner, promising
the most exciting and unique handi-
cap race ever run here.
If Terway were runner with the
jog that is the mainstay of the av-
erage long distance man, bunch of
association sprinters could over
come him, but the Calgary lad is
some Splinter himself and figures
that he can outsprint each assoca-
ton man in the 10 mile race.

DIVER AND TW|TCHELL LEAD
IN HOT COWBOY POOL RACE

With the end of the cowboy pool
tournament only 10 days off, Dryer
and Twitchell, the leaders of last
week, appear to have the best
chance for the title of s. A. A. c.

Belts, last years champions, are in
their stride and going great guns,
with Doyer and Callahan and sew

in the race.
OF the Is games comprising the
tournament. Doyer and Callahan
have played IA, while Dryer and
Twitchell have played only 10. If
they lose the next game these two

ONE BREED ON THE FARM.
Poultry Can Be Improved on the Same
Idea as Stock.

Idea as Stock.
The community idea might be work
ed a great deal more than it is in the
pure bred poultry business. Better
results could be had if the farmers
in n given locality would all keep one
breed of poultry. If they would unite
on some good, popular, easy selling
breeds tfNy would find buyers much
more easily than where each man
keeps a different kind of stock.
With dairy cattle this plan has work
ed wonderfully we'll for certain groups
of farmers in various parts Of the
country. In Wisconsin there is n dairy
center where almost everybody keeps
Guernseys. In New York state there
is n region where dozens of farmers
keep Holsteins. In northern New
Jersey there is another Guernsey CEN
try there are Jersey and Ayrshire
dairy centers. In ali these localities
there are hundreds of pure bred ami
mails which can be seen in a few
