TRENTON, N. j., Dec. "A few
months ago the thirteenth baby
was born to Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
p. Yates and shortly afterward,
when the fact had been published,
a letter was received saying Gen.
John T. Yates of Omaha would pay
$4,000 if allowed to adopt the lit
tie one. on account of the name.
The offer was declined by the Tren-
ton Yateses.
General Yates came to Trenton
last night to officiate at a big init
alton conducted by the Woodmen
of the World and some one sent
word to the Trenton Yateses that
he intended to call to see the baby.
The Yateses prepared lavishly to
receive him and then learned that
he had gone to Philadelphia.
Before going he confided to some
lodge associates that someone had
written the letter for a joke. He
said he had children of his own and
was not offering $4,000 for those
of other people.

club.
That's the way the posters will
read about town during the latter
part of January, for Fred Creel of
the S. A. A. c. is planning to
bring the boxers of the Idaho club
to this city in January for an inter
club smoker.
1T will give us an opportunity
to work out our men preparatory

coming smoker.
Occur d'Alene is not the only
club with which smokers may be

THE IDAHO BOXERS
Frank Kahn, the old-time 145-
pound wrestler of S. A. A. c., and
former northwest champ, who is in
charge of the Occur d'Alene club,
will probably bring Don McPhee,
Rambouski, O'Rourke and O'Brien
to represent his club in the
smoker.
McPhee is a 135-pounder who de-
feated Rafferty, of Portland at the
armory last winter; Rambouski at
1875 pounds defeated Buscombe al
Vancouver last year, the Idaho lad
fighting for Cook; O'Rourke is a
115-pounder who scored a knock
out in his last fight over Craglund,
a former S. A. A. c. man; O'Brien
is 105-pound whirlwind who has
a draw with O'Rourke to his
credit.
Against these stars Creel will
pit Red Hughes at 105, Kid Mccoy
at 115 Tommy Kelly at 125 and
Lester Ball at 1876.

WILL YOU Be
At THE GAME?

"Are you going to the football
game Saturday,"
Sure"
That's the question and that's
the answer that invariably follows
when two football rooters meet on
the streets of Spokane these days
To say that Spokane is properly
enthused over the big game is put
ting it mildly.
Not only will Spokane fans turn
out in force to witness the struggle
between the giants of Denver and
w. S. c., but excursions are being
organized in Moscow, Occur
d'Alene and neighboring towns, as
well as from Pullman and the
homes of the collegians.

of a white man losing the title of
champion of the world, but because
they are satisfied that Johnson can
defeat Jeffries.
On the other hand, hundreds of
local bettors are willing to wager
their all that Jeffries can come
back and be good enough to de-
feat the colored champion. They
do not contend that Jeff can re
cover his old time form, but hold
that with only part of his former
stamina, he will be able to over
come his dusky opponent.
1t loks like an even money bet
either way these days, with the fol-
lowers of Jeffries betting on the
fight and taking gamble on Jeff's

STRANGE HEADGEAR

Hart, the Princeton halfback
who went to Princeton as the
New England schoolboy cham
pion shotputter, wears the
strangest head protection of any
player of the season. An i'm
mense air cushioned helmet
rests on top of his head, being
supported from his shoulders
by a heavily padded steel rod
running along the back of his
neck, and the lower portion Of
the support forking and being
strapped about his shoulders.
Hart is said to have weak
neck, but the support is SO
strong that the Princeton
coaches and trainer say he is
taking no chances. when he
wears this bizarre armor, that
makes his head look twice its
natural size. Standing behind
Hart, his head appears to be
only a few inches less wide than
the strong mans massive
shoulders.

But the wise ones among the grow
