WILL TRY INNOVATION IN
CHASING RACING AUTOS

NEW YORK, June 27.--An innova-
tion at the twenty-four hour automo-
bile race to be held at Brighton Beach
race track July is and 16 will be the
division of the competing cars into
three departments, according to piston
displacement.
In each of these subdivisions a spe-
cial prize will be given, so there will
be three races in one. In addition to
the division prizes there will be
grand prize for the car that travels
the greatest distance.
The robins song is sweeter, Til own,
The larl's clear call is nice;
But sweeter far than bird notes is
That strident yell of "ICE!"

NEW YORK. Feb. 5.-The tenth annual
meeting OF the United States Revolver as
ISOLATION, held recently In this city, started
a scheme to schedule an annual interna-
tional revolver match between England and
the United States. The American organ

toward arranging the meets.
The organization is also planning the
formation of al outdoor league and has
decided to mak the pocket revolver cham
pionship a state championship match, pro-
vided there are five or more entries from
any state.

condition and the following officers were
elected for the current year: President,

HARD ON THE FIGHTERS WIND
Some Think Salt Lake City would
Make q Change in Conditions.

Make q Change in Conditions.
NEW YORK. Feb. There has been
some discussion over the probable effect
of the altitude upon Jeffrles and Johnson
should the championship fight be held in
Salt Lake City.
As a matter of fact the altitude is not
going to make a great difference IL the
men are in condition. Neither viii have the
advantage of being accustomed to fighting
above sea levelt for neither Jeffries
nor johnson has ever fought away from a
a low altitude. All OF their battles have
been either on the sea coast or in the
cities of the plains. And Salt Lake City
isn't extremely high. 1t is only 400 feet
above sea level. The air is dry and some
what thinner than in the seahoard cities.
but not thin enough to affect seriously the
fighting ability of any man I'm first class
condition.
Jeffries trained Corbett at Carson City,
the altitude of which is 5000 feet. At. that
time the champion could box or run all
day long without feeling the effect of the
altitude very much. 1t is a fact, though,
that in the fight between Fitzslmmons and
Corbett, Fitzsimmons had an advantage be-
cause of his great lung capacity. At Car
son 1t was hard work for any ordinary man
to box or run long distances.
Fighting is hard work In Denver, where
the altitude is 500 feet, but Denver. has
always favored ten-round bouts. Butte.
Mont, is at an altitude Of 5,4S5 feet, yet
there have been many great fights there.
In Butte Stanley Ketchel and Montana
Jack Sullivan, who is now in Philadelphia
looking for a few h~eavyweights to light,
fought to a draw in twenty rounds. This
shows that it Is possible to fight a long
time in such an altitude. Only three men
have ever stayed over twenty rounds with
Ketchel, The others were Papke and Joe
Thomas, and they met him at sea level.
Battling Nelson fought twenty hurricane
rounds with Herrera in Butte, winning the
decision. Nelson has shown his ability to
battle in high attitudes on more tina one
occasion. His forty-two-round fight with
Joe Cans in Oldfield was held 5000 feet
above sea level.
The hardest place to fight in this country
is at Cripple Greek, at an altitude Of $500
feet. There the rare atmosphere makes it
almost impossible to go through a long
battle at a hard pace, no matter how we'll
acclimated the fighters are. But the alti-
tude isn't the toughest thing in Cripple
Creek. Tom Sharkey fought Mexican Pete
Everett there in 1901. He knocked Everett
out with a punch on the jaw IN the first
round and was counted loser on a foul"
When Sharkey protested the referee COW
cred him with a six-shooter and remarked:
II said FOUL"
"Oh, very WELL" replied Sharkey.
Any man in good condition, and with
strong lungs, can fight on a mountain top.
But he must work at the same altitude
while preparing for the fight. He must be-
come accustomed to the thin air gradually.

Messing leg straps, belts and springs to

called rupture cures is just so much
money thrown away,
Instead Of curing your rupture, these
worthless things work great harm
Your rupture is bound to come out
1t becomes larger and larger
You lose strength
Every movement Of your body cause
great discomfort and
The muscles surrounding your rupture
become weaker and weaker and, finally
A dangerous operation becomes neces-
sary-an operation which nine times out
OF ten will prove unsuccessful or fatal.
The only safe and sure method to use Is
the Cluthe Cure for Rupture.
