Maud Junction is where every figh-

Geyer has had little mix with Joe
Willis IN Los Angeles some months
ago. 1t was when Geyer was new at
the game, and in this contest for
newspaper decision, which by the
way was draw, with Jack having the
better of the argument at the close.
He had a pretty hard time OF It. Here
Is what II. M. Walker, sporting editor
Of the Los Angeles Examiner has to
say for Denver Jack:
"Geyer is splendid heavyweight
prospect. He Is game enough to be
"a champion. Only a stout heart
brought him to his feet after being
floored in the second OF Tuesday
nights encounter and again in the
seventh. 1t was his courage alone
that kept him going when he was so
tired that he could scarcely stand
le alro is aggressiveness perspnt-
fled. He Is physical giant and
punches with the force Of a batterIng
ram"
In this same fight with Willis, Jack
got little bruised up. Read the fol-
lowing from the Los Angeles Record
and Judge for yourself whether or
not he is game;
Jacks hands are in awful shape,
and his jaw Is broken on the left side,
the result Of Willis fight when the

New Mexico, Wyoming and Nebraska.
This, along with other things, proves
that this most modest OF all boxers
who ever came into Oklahoma Is the
least lemon" of them all.

FAIRLY WARNED.
The Old Crooks Advice to His Bril-

"All this easy talk about honest

tired. There isn't any such thing.
Honest graft is on a par with the
point of view of an incorriglble old
crook l ran across when / was doing
police work on Chicago paper years
ago. The venerable reprobate had
son about eighteen years old, whom
he had carefully trained to follow in
his own footsteps. They lived togeth-
er, and every night the old man used
to make the boy fork over the pro-
ceeds of the days -pocketpicking, al
lowing him just enough to live on.
FINALLY the young crook began to
rebel inwardly. and one night, after a
ly pawned n diamond scarfpin and
kept the money himself He gave the
old thief the rest of the swag, how
ever. and it was so goodly pile that
he opened his heart and handed the
astonished boy So and told him to go
to prizefght or somewhere and en-
Joy himself So the boy began to put
on his only glad rags But he seemed
strangely silent and distraught. The
old man noticed it and demanded to
know what was the matter and II the
S. wasn't enough, and so on.
Suddenly the lad burst into tears.
'Guv'nor,' he sobbed, 4 amt no right
to this five spot. Here's SO got on
pin today, and I was goin' to hold it
out on you
1.-THE old crook took the money and
gazed with sadness upon his child.
Son he said, 4 want to tell you one
thing Take 1t from me, folks that
gets money that way will never, never
come to no good New York World.
