change their petitions to independent
candidates that go on by any petition.

JOHNSON SHY
ON STAYING

LAS VEGAS, N. M, June IT.
Jack Johnson merely laughed
today when told that DIR. Edwin
B. Shaw, who examined him and
Jim Flynn Sunday had stated
that Johnson probably has not got
staying power. DIR. Shaw based
this statement on his test of the
big negro's chest expansion,
which showed a difference of only
IL IA inches between the meas
nrement at normal and at full
inspiration.
"You can't win lights with
chest expansion" laughed John
SON today. "You have to be there
with your mitts. l guess 1 won't
need much staying power be-
cause that July 4 thing is only
going to last a little while, any
way. Mr.. Flynn won't have a
show"
Nevertheless, Tommy Ryan,
Flynn's trainer, says DR.. Shaw
told him that Flynn's muscular
development was perfect and that
all he lacked was a little greater
height. DR.. Shaw thinks the ne
gro will have to win early in the
battle or not at all.

Farmer Cy Young, With Fat Stock and Bank Roll,
The Medium of Rich Joke On Young Boston Players
BY Elmer Il. Bates

WITH amazing lluellty 10 MA
jor league recruits fall" into
traps set by the veterans. AS
there is no evidence that this is
done In a spirit of patronage, 1t
must follow that the youngsters
look upon the players of expert
ence as veritable sages, whose
advise is to be followed implic-
lilly.
1t is because this is SO that the
pages of baseball history bristle
with some of the rare jokes. 1t
remained for 1912 to produce
the real classic incident, however.
Not long ago Cy Young of the
Boston Nationals--the only real
G. o. M. of the game-realized
that his big right arm was not
responding to training. So Cy.
always conscientious, decided to
go to his home in Peoli, o., and
to stay there, unless his arm
came back" The Boston team
was in Pittsburg at the time.
From Pittsburg to Peoli may be
$50 miles. The fare may be So.
One of the veterans suggested
to one of the recruits that it
would be a gracious act by the
youngsters to raise a purse to pay
poor old Cy's" expenses home.
Because" said the veteran.
"Old Cy may never earn another
dollar on the diamond"
The bait was swallowed. Also
the hook and the sinker. A few
hours later Cy was called to a
corner and handed HpprAe" of
s44.7S. The amount was made
up of pennies. nickels, dimes,
quarters, halves and small bills.
With, the .purse" went the bless
ing and good wishes s>of the
boys"
Cy wanted to cry, but had to
laugh. His ticket home had been
ordered, but Cy let the last train
go without him. He remained in
Pittsburg until every penny of
the $44.7S had been restored to
the givers.
The G. o. M. of baseball didn't
tell the young men who so gladly
essayed to help him, that during
some seasons his salary had been
more than S44.78 day and that
he had $40 acres of rich land
upon which the Creator had
smiled before he set it down in
Tuscarawas county, Ohio. He
said nothing about his mansion
of a house, his dozens or more
farm buildings, his herds of cat
tie. his flocks of sheep.
OF course, he didn't produce
his bank books showing his de-
posits. He merely told them that
they were mighty kind, but that
he didn't need their purse"
Men who have watched Cy's
wealth increase since he entered
the major league ranks in 1890
say Young is worth every cent of
100000.
Cy says the incident reminds
him of another. II was in Cleye-
land with the Boston Americans"
says Cy, when a newspaper
friend came to the hotel solicit
ing subscriptions to save some
body or other from burial in the
Potter's field. Everybody knew
the newspaper man - who went
about with a long face-and he
soon received subscriptions for
1913.
CAS- he handed the subscription
blank to me to sign / read 1t over
to see If had known the poor,
fellow, the newspaper man was
trying to save from an ignoble
burial. Who do you suppose 1t
VAST"
Who, Cy?"
Marshall Field, the Chicago
multi-millionarei The newspaper
man, of course, was jokfng-as
was the old player in Pittsburg,
but the incidents serve to show
how quick is the response of ball
players to sympathetic appeal"

carrying the fight to Carroll at

straight lefts. Louis Reese Of Los
Angeles won a decision from Ray
