Jaspar Hawkins told US that he
would pay up his back subscripshion
to the Bugle as soon as he sells his
steers. One of Jaspar's neighbors tells
US that Jaspar amt got any steers to
SELL This is strange.
Rev. Samuel Moore, our beloved
pastor. took us to task the other day
for saying harsh things against our
subscribers because they wouldn't pay
up. It is our private opinion that if
Rev. Moore would say a few harsh
things hisself to the members of his
flock it would help him out great cal.

Spechia| Notice

You will observe that there is not
many berths recorded in this issue Of
the Bugle. The principle reason for
this is that there is not many births to
record this week We had almost
promised the public to chronicle a few
births this week, but up to the hour
OF going to press our fondest hopes
has not been realized. Unless there is
a increase in Bingville's populashion
by next week we shall have our town
selectmen call a meeting OF our citi-
zens to take steps to remedy this evil

There is a good many disadvan-
tages about this time of year when
you come to think of it. It's a good
cal like Bige Barker put it down to
Hen Weathersby's store tother
night-Bige he said, "Jest about
this time O year it's too hot for a
overcoat and too cool for your
shirt sleeves" In other words,
we're just now between hay and
grass, as you might say-so far as
the wether is concerned. The days
is nice and warm, but it begins to
git coolish long about shutdown,
and by about 2 a. m. the next
morning a person wakes up with
their feet feeling like isiskles and
they're too dog-blamed sleepy to
get up and get another comforter,
and as a result they lay there and
freeze like a blamed fool til day
light and then work like Sam Hill
during the day and git all SWEET up
and ketch a bad cold on their lungs
like as not and are all stopt up
and uncomfortable for a week or
two.
These is the principle objeck-
shions witch we have to this time of
year-as editor and prop. of the
Bingville Bugle we would a good
cal sooner see the weather stay hot
or else get cold and snappy so as
a person could tell what to ex-
|peckt and prepare for. Some pee
pull long for winter becoz they say
they feel better in the winter time
when the thermometer is down be-
low zero and the air cold and crisp
and the snow scrumches under
your heels when you walk down
street. Our eminent townsn1an, Cy
IHoskins, is one of them kind who
prefers cold wether, but whether
or not a person prefers cold wether
depends a good cal on how they
be fxt in life.
| Take Cy for instants-now he's
we'll to do and has three or four
hundred dollars in the bank, so
roomer says, and has a hole lot of
winter wood cut up in the wood
shed, and when the freezin nights
come Cy he shuts up the house tite
and puts on two or three big logs
in the fireplace and sets there and
Itoasts his shins and pats hisself on
the back becoz he is so much
warmer than some of his nabers
who amt so we'll off for wood as
he is. The trubble with most OF
us is that we don't econnyn1ize on
our frewood like Cy does. Cy he
thinks almost as much of a stick
of frewood as he does of his wife
and as a result he pinches along

We Are DIsapInted

Hen Weathersby, prop Of our gen.
eral store come in last Monday and
told us he wanted big ad set up
concerning some new goods he got
into his store lately. He told Us to
go ahead and set up the ad ourself
and say whatever we happened to think
of concerning the new goods and we
went and done it and then on Wen
esday Hen he come in and said he
had changed his mind about wanting
a ad in the paper about the new goods
being as he had sold them all of and
so he didn't want to advertise some
thing which he didn't have and so
we had to go to all our trouble for
nothing. When peerul come to the
Bugle office to advertise they ought
to know what they be tall<in about.
We woulc ruther they wouldn't come
in at all than to give Us q hole lot OF

Reviews Seasons Work
Reviewing the work of the golfers
and the points of their play winch led
him to the determination of his rat
ings Mr. Fitzpatrick said:
although there were more tourna-
ments and matches played last season
than ever before in the United States,
the action in the amateur champion
ship had a more than usual sgnih-
canoe in determining the golfers of ma
tional position and prominence Egan
was the pivot of interest. He revealed
a return to form that has won for him
in former national, western and inter
collegiate championships and showed
that his defeat in the western cham
pionship of 1909 did not mean any
thing.
while Gardner had beaten Travis
and Phelps in succession and mad
shown high class, Egan. | think. had
he not suffered from ptomaine illness
before the final, would have won. AS

alton championship besides being

Prelims Extra Strong
Secretary Hancock has outdone his
best previous efforts in arranging the
preliminary offering of the card. he
has eliminated the too brief four-round
bouts and has arranged four slx-rounu
affairs between the best possible talent
to be had. Dick Allen, the heavy
weight star of the Los Angeles Ath-
letic club, will make his professional
debut against Henry Caresee, the big
one who knocked out Gangser in fifty
nine seconds recently at Maud. Marty
Kane. the hero of one of the bouts last
Friday night, has been hooked up with
Frankie Harris, who figures to do
dead heat stunt with Marty on strict
form figures. Both boys are well known
and that it will be a highly exciting
scrap is accepted without argument
Jimmie Burns, the crack featherweight
who recently came in from Oakland,
will meet Gene McGovern at 122 pounds.
Hobo, Dougherty and Kid Troubles are
to furnish the semi -windup to the card
and those who never have had the
pleasure Of witnessing real fight
should be in their seats when this af-
fair is cut loose. Both boys are above
the average class in fighting ability
and both are anxious to come together.
The four bouts look like main events,
every one of them, and should be suf-
ficiently exciting to whet the appetite

.SCALER AND RILEY
BATTLE TO A DRAW
TERRIFIC MILLING MARKS
SACRAMENTO SCRAP
Norman Stone and Young Sullivan
Run a Ten=Act Dead Heat,
and Erickson Trims
Curry

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 1.-After
twenty rounds of terrific milling Ref-
cree Frank Crowley declared the Riley
Scaler fight a draw this afternoon.
Riley had the better of the fight for
the first eight rounds, using his snappy
left to good advantage.
From the tenth round on Scaler
forced the fighting, but Riley delivered
the cleanest blows, which earned him
the draw. The decision was well re-
ceiVed.
Norman Stone of Los Angeles and
Young Sullivan of Sacramento went
ten rounds to a draw and Joe Erick-
son obtained a siX-round decision over
Kid Curry. The preliminaries were
refereed by Sol LeVinson. Today's
fights, which were under the auspices
of the Buffalo Athletic club, drew an
immense audience of fight fans.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-01-02

kids have made good and established
themselves with the fans it will arouse
as much interest as any minor event in
recent months.
The O'Connell-Cappelle scrap in the
semi-windup Friday night was one of
the biggest betting affairs as a prelim-
mary event that ever was staged in the
southland. Both boys had a big fol-
lowing that bet on them, and both
sides had ample chance to yell. Cap
pele would have won at six rounds,
but showed plainly that he had gone
beyond his distance after that round
was finished. 1t was a case similar to
that when a sprinter is asked to go
over a route, but Cappelle is a game
little fighter, and if he is worked" over
the route sufficiently he ought to go on
next out.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-01-02

The world knows that the match is
one of the most desirable attractions in
the pugilistic market. and the fans
and promoters are most anxious to
have it go through. McCarey offered
Nelson $4,000 for his share, regardless
of the result and Wolgast was to re-
ceive $4500 on the same basis. This
would be dividing a practical $4,000
purse on a basis Of 65 and So per cent,
q very equitable division of winner
and losers share.
Wolgast is most anxious to get a
long-distance fight with Nelson, as he
believes he can win the title. Nelson
is not afraid of anybody, but wants to
rake in all the money he can squeeze
out of the promoters for his services,
which is very natural. When he finds
that he cannot get $4,000 from Hester,
he probably will be willing to accept
So 900 from McCarey and will sign up
with the local promoter.
Hester made the seemingly fatal
mistake of ignoring WOlgast entirely
and dealing exclusively with Nelson in
his efforts to take the scrap away from
McCarey. He secured the consent of
Nelson, but Immediately bucked up
against a snag in the form of the little
DGtCn WnlIlWluus he ulu ilpl pIOpoSC
to take less than a losers end of a
purse for winning, and there the hitch
came. Hester increased McCarey's bid
to Nelson, but reduced WOlgast's share
$1,000
McCarey said last night that he con-
siders the match most desirable and
certainly would be pleased to secure it,
but he feels a delicacy in again ap-
preaching Nelson with request that
the champion accept the original prop
osition. There will be found a way,
however, for the fighters and promoter
to get together and the prospects are
good that McCarey will land the battle
yet.
Lightweghts at Work
Wolgast began training yesterday
for his scrap Friday night with
George Memsic. He went out to Jack
Doyles place and did some light work
preparatory to starting the strenuous
campaign today. He will begin the
hard grind with an extended workout
