TEX R|CKARD TELLS HOW
He WON AND LOST FORTUNES
DURING CHECKERED CAREER
Sporting Worlds Greatest Promoter Was a
Cow-Puncher at Eleven and Is Now a
Millionaire-Of to South America
to Develop New Fields.
BY VINCENT TREANOR.

1TEX RICHARD, probably the most interesting character in the
sporting world, to-day at the Waldof-Astora told the story of
his checkered career, from a COW puncher to a millionaire.
Forty years old now and rolling ir wealth, his life has been one series
of ups and downs.
Richard has been a cowboy, a miner, a gambler and a fight pro.
noter, in the latter capacity probably the nerviast the sporting world
has ever known. He has been broke a dozen times. He has won and
lost fortunes without blinking an eye. Some of his experiences would
have driven the average man to distraction and robbed any ordinary
mortal of all ambition. Richard, however, always weathered the storms
Of adversely and or each occasion bobbed up for a fresh Start. He never
gave up. To-day he is a shining example of what huSting, persistence
and nerve can accomplish.

PROBABLE FINANCING
OF BARKER MINES
Pinal County Man Goes East on
Business and Pleasure.

1t is understood from those be
lieVed To be in a position To know
that Alex Barker, a well known citi-
zen OF Pinal county, who was here
d few days ago. has gone east FOR
the purpose Of financing a company
for the exploiting of his property in
tae vicinity Of Mammoth. Incidental
ly, it is his first trip east for thirty
years. and he is accompanied by a
daughter
Mr.. Barker has two groups of
claims, one in which copper seems To
be the principal metal. being known
as the Holy Joe, and the other a gold
property the name of which was not
learned The latter is said to have
an immense vein from 40 to 60 feet
wide, that can be traced on the sur
face for 1900 feet, though the great
body Of the ore is Tow grede. Before
he left Phoenix he bought a churn
drill for the exploration of his min
ing property.
Mr. Barker has been engaged in
mining in Pinal county for many
years and is a highly regarded man,
but he has been handicapped i'm his
operations by a lack of capital and
was too independent to seek il i'm
sources where he might secure il.
namely of wealthy relatives and
friends Ii is said that recently GER
tain of these visited him and were
so favorably impressed with his prop
critics that they insisted on his put
ting them in shape so the capital
could be furnished for their opera

Frederic Thompsons celebrated
play. Polly of the Circus. with Ida
St Leon in the title role, will be
seen at the Elks theatre Wednesday,
January 18th. This highly interest
ing and captivating romance of the
circus rider and the minister forms
one of the most pleasing and enter
tanning plays Of the season. The
story of the play is rather novel
and il has that which holds the heart
strings. and il invites even faded
taste To a simple revel i'm romance.
II is piece that one can see and
go away happy with laughter and
tears. Its little story is well told
and framed. The scenic production
is most elaborate and the circus
scenes true To life with acrobats,
umblers. clowns and trainers. Fred
eric Thompson has provided a COM
pany of exceptional merit. which is
the same that assisted So materially
at the Liberty theatre. New York. IL
will be played here absolutely as il
was in the metropolis and will be-
the one big novelty of the season.
Polly Of the Circus should be greet
ed by house damned To the doors.
