KOSSICK-BEACH
MAY Be The NEXT
PROMOTER ART LEWIS THINKS
WE'LL OF A CONTEST BETWEEN
THE MOORHEAD BOY AND CLEV-
Err YOUNG MAN WHO BOXES MON
DAY NIGHT IN SIOUX CITY.

Efforts are on root for making a
match between Leo Kossick, of Fargo
and Moorhead and Jack Beach, the
clever light weight who has been beat
ing some of the best men in the north
west. Beach is on the programme for
a big go in Sioux City, Ia, Monday
night next, being the stellar attraction
in an athletic tournament which will
end h Labor day programme in the
city.
Beach has been doing a great deal
of work down in Sioux City, recently
defeating Clarence English in a ten
round go, and he has been sending all
kinds of defs at the Moorhead boy who
is anxious and willing to try conclu-
sions with the hardy young boxer.
Art Lewis, the well known and sue
cessful promoter from across the river
thinks well Of a contest between the
two men, and If everything can be ar
ranged satisfactorily he will more than
likely handle the contest. +
Beach was booked to meet Leo last
year, but failed to put in appearance.
However he had Labe Safro take his
place, and he now gives an excuse that
he had a bad shoulder: On this account
Mr.. Lewis will require that Beach ser
a forfeit here, and that it will be large
enough to reimburse Lewis in case
Beach makes another fall-down of his
engagement, OF as he did the first time,
offer a substitute. Kossick is anxious
to meet Beach, for he latter has been

facing strong teams.
Glasgow or Lamb will cover third,
SO this station VIII be well taken care

Lutgens will be on second, and he,
has always got in a couple of good hits
in each game.
The outheld without a doubt will be
the best bunch of outer gardeners seer
in Moorhead this year. Wheeler, Sher-
wood and Peterson are all heavy hit
ters, n are apt to break up a game
most any time.
Fiddler and Holt will do the battery
work, which will no doubt keep the
score low for the visitors.
The game will be called at 3 d. M,

Mile AUTO
TRIP BY MINOT
PEOPLE ENDED

Minot, n. D., Aug. 30.-After travel
ing nearly 5000 miles in a round about
trip to New York city n back again
in a Ford cal. Mr.. and Mrs. B. D.
Glazer arrived home Sunday night.
The trips n Of the longest, IL not
the longest. ever made by northwestern
North Dakota people. and few mishaps
occurred to mar the pleasure of the
journey. No car troubles were expert
enced at all and in this respect the
travellers have nothing but praise for
their auto. The only real mishap oc-
Cured a few miles out of Burlington,
Ia. Mr.. Glazer was driving at a good
clip when they came to a narrow bridge
crossing a river into the city. A man
driving a heavy wagon was crossing
the bridge and as there was a bend in
the road he did not see the approach
ing car until well upon him. He
whipped up his horses in an effort to
get off the bridge. The only thing for
the autoists to do was to go into the
river or hit the wagon. The horses,
driver and wagon were nearly off of
the bridge when the crash came.
Aside from a good shaking up and
minor damages to the car and the rear
of the wagon no serious injury was
done.
From points in Iowa the Minot tour
lists cut across to Chicago. A blue book
was used as a pathfinder and little diff
f1culty was experienced in keeping on
the proper roads and finding the cities
they wanted to reach. On several
days over 200 miles were covered each
day. In most places the roads were in
splendid condition. Auto travel in the
east has been a big factor in the de-
velOpment of good roads and in most
places fine highways lead from town
to town.
Tourists from all sections Of the
United States can be found travelling
along these roads Many autoists
making the trip from San Francisco to
New York city were encountered. Ev-
'erywhere Mr.. and Mrs. Glazer went
they received Inquiries about Minot.
Eastern people are unusually interested
in this territory and apparently every
body has heard about the big crops in
this section The reason for the great
Interest in this territory is that east
ern lands are now valued at from 5000
to $500 per acre, and at several points
where the travellers stopped for meals
the owners of farms signified their in
tention to sell their high priced lands
and locate in the west where the lands
are just as fertile and about one-tenth
as cheap as as the eastern lands.
One OF the pleasures of the trip was
the fact that there is a bond Of fellow
ship existing between travelling auto
lists and any accommodations wanted
were easily secured. -
Several days were spent in Chicago
while the a was overhauled but 1t
was found that very little of this was
needed. The car in fact stood the
travel much better than the heavier
and higher priced cars. From Chicago
the Minot travellers went to New York
via Petosky, Mich. They Of course
spent quite a little time at each i'm

NIKE GIBBONS in N. Y.


James j. Corbett, in his weekly sport
letter, has the following to say OF
Mike Gibbons, the star in pugilism who
halls from st. Paul and who is a
nephew of Al. H. McPhatI of this city:
Mike Gibbons Is due in New York

Paul boxer will try for midd1eweight
honors this season, and is now angling
for a match with Jack Harrison, the
E~nglishman. now visiting this country
for the first time. Negotiations are al
so on for an Eddie McGoorty-G Gibbons
match.
They tell me McGoorty has outgrown
the middleweight division and wifi not
attempt tie make 15S pounds in the fu-
ture. II that's the case there is small
chance for Mike and Eddie to mix mat
tiers. Gibbons is a shrewd young man
and sensible enough to understand that
he would have very much the worst OF
a joust with the Oshkosh al
scaling in the SOS. McGoorty, to my
way of thinking lis the only man today
IN the middle class who could give
Gibbons a good battle in a limited round
affair. Ed can go along at a fast pace
In the short dashes, and last winter
furnished Gothannites on more than one
occasion with samples of unusually
clever boxing. No boxer above the.

ceptiOn, and 1t is much TO be regretted

The return trip from New YORK CITY
was made in about ten days. No &C
cidents, outside of getting into seyeral
mudholes in poor roads in spots hap
pened. On Saturday nearly zoo miles
were covered while on Sunday over
that number Of miles were made.
Mr.. and Mrs. Glazer are profuse IN
their praise for the Ford car. The
machine is almost in as good condition
now as when they started. All kinds
of weather and roads were encounter
ed but the Ford stood up under every
strain and at no time through the
actual fault OF the a was 1t neces-
sary TO consult a mechanician. Con-
sidering the distance travelled. the
weather and the roads, the record made
by the car is a remarkable one. About
seven weeks were spent on the jour
