CARE OF FARM WORK HORSES
Animate Should Be Pampered and
Fed Generously to Sustain vlaor
and Good Spirits.

Horses employed for farm work
should be pampered and should be fed
generously so as to sustain vigor and
good spirits. A team ill-fed and con.
sequently in poor condition and feeble
will mot accomplish much real hard
work and it is a waste of time to hire
an expensive hand to drive such a
team.
The harness, and particularly the
collar, should be accurately adjusted
to the horse. II the collar is either
too tight or too loose it gals him and
seriously affects his breathing. =
The work horses should be fed
early In the morning and they should
have liberal feeding. The comfort
and rest of the team will be vastly
promoted If the harness is entirely re.
moved at noon while they: are feeding.
Allow them plenty of time for a good
meal and partial digestion before they
are put to work for the afternoon. It
is poor policy to put them to work
right after eating hearty meal or
upon full stomach.
IL We "OOAO AAO" LQ0 Teams more
rest at noon We would accomplish
more work than when they are only
allowed time to swallow their food. At
evening let them be well groomed
and their legs and bellies relieved of
mud and filth.
The practise Of many farmers of
driving a team through cold water to
wash the filth of their feet and legs
is dangerous, as it causes many dis
eases that they are subject to.
A warm or overheated team should
not be put in cold. airy place, but
first exercised ana then blanketed and
put In warm stable and after the
blankets are removed they should be
wiped dry with straw or cloths.
When a team has been exposed to
rains they should not be left to be-
come dry, but should be rubbed dry.
as chills, fevers and other ailments
often result from allowing them to dry
by the evaporation of the moisture
from their bodies.

The umpire, or robber as he is
called. is quite necessary evil.
Were there no umpires at a game
of ball every person present would
become a volunteer for his task,
and the contest could not proceed,
owing to the carnage. Therefore,
by common consent, one man is
selected to bear all the obloquy,
and this is the umpire. 1t is con-
coded in advance that he is only
human, but the theory exists that
his mistakes in a given period OF
time will offset each other.
In discharging the duties of the
day, the umpire is supposed to OBJ
serve every feat and every blunder
made at bat, or in the field, or on
the bases. Indeed, he is expected
to be arguseyed, but an argus has
an hundred eyes, and an umpire
only two. and these only in the
front part of his head. 'Tis a pity,
that some of our magnates do not
go forth into the wilds and capture
an argus, and train 1t to umpire
Then we would have less talk of
the impaired vision, or bum lamps.
On the other hand mean other

we'll. He must be deaf to insults,

must have a loud voice, like a
brakeman, and his own code of
pronunciation. This tempts people
to attend the game full oft, in order
to learn the language.
Not infrequently an umpire will
make an excellent decision, but this
will not always placate the raging.
He has the disadvantage of not be-
ing affiliated with either team, nor
with the spectators, and therefore
has no friends to lean upon but his
beloved ones at home.
In spite of all this, nearly every
day. an upright umpire will essay
to do his detestable task, hewing to
the foul line and letting the base
hits fall where they may, although
no doubt he could gain a prime Sc
gar by telling an untruth. l have
also noticed that the more decom-
posed of putrid playing, the more
mortified and unwholesOme are re-
garded the decisions of the umpire
This is plainly due to blind parti-
sanship on the part of those who

urge that all visiting teams play

Especial to The Press.)

SAN FRANCISCO, July 18.-Al-
though the battle does not figure in
the column of defeats recorded
against Lii Artha" Johnson,
heavyweight champion pugilist of
the world, there is one man in this
city who holds a decision over the
big smoke that all of the knock
outs he may record in the future
will never wipe out.
b The man who holds the decision
over Johnson, and it was a clean
knockout, is Charles Sicily, one
time patrolman in the wild south
ern police district of San Fran
cisco, but now secretary of the
police commission. The ring
where the memorable mill was
brought off was sidewalk. There
was no referee, nor TEX" Rick
ard to promote the spectacular af-
fair. There was no SOL 900 purse;
no bonus; no winners or losers
end (unless a ride in the patrol
wagon after it was over could be
called a losers ends); there were
no five ounce gloves, nor were
there any ring celebrities at the
ringside to aid and cheer the COM
batants on to victory, but
There was knockout, and big
Jack" Johnson was still out when
the wagon rolled up to the station.
Here's the story of that memorable
battle:
1t was in the old days before
the fire. The late John Spillane
was captain of the district, then
rated the hardest in the city, and
he had little use for patrolmen who
would not fight. In fact, an officer
had a fight on his hand in that
section every time he attempted to
make an arrest
Shelly was on night duty at
Third and Mission streets, and
some one told him that black man
was running amuck at saloon
just a block away. 1t was up to
him to gather in the black man and
he started out to get him.
Jack Johnson then made his
headquarters in Oakland and was
under the management of a saloon
keeper named Kohl. He was just
breaking into the fight game.
Times We're hard and he was given
a small room at the rear of the sa-
loon for sleeping apartments. Oc-
casionally he would drift over to
this side of the bay and he was
rated as a vigorous man to handle,

WHEN JACK JOHNSON FIRST TOOK COUNT;
NO PURSE OR REFEREE, JUST A SIDEWALK,
A HARD HITTING COP AND A PATROL WAGON

the officer approached the saloon
in which he was holding forth.
AS in all crowds south of Market
in those days there was always a
gang against the police. The gang
was with Johnson, and Sicily saw
before he started to gather him in
that his work was cut out for him.
He got his club in action and start
ed in. Somebody knocked his club
out of his hand and there was moth
ing for the patrolman to do but
to get busy with his fists.
Sicily don't know how he did it,
but he managed to land one on
Johnson in the first clash that end
ed the battle. Some of those pres
ent declared that he threw his
club at him, but Shelly is sure he
didn't because he lost it and is
equally sure he used his fist.
Jack was still out when the wag-
on arrived and he was hustled into
the back end.
When he came too at the prison
his only remark was:
"WhO was dat man what hit me?
l sho' done wants to zee him TO- if l
can get him to teach me dat punch
Ahll be champion the fist time All
gets a whack at the title holder"
Il never got a chance to teach
him the punch" said Shelly re-
Gently, while telling the story, "but
he must have picked up one some
place that is just as good, for he
is certainly some fighter now"
