SONG OF THE SHIRT"
lt Was the Most Popular Thing Tom
 Mood Ever Wrote.

Mood Ever Wrote,
 During his last illness Tom Hood in an idle moment made nm imarinaiive sketch Of his own tombstone He drew himself reclining at full length on a thick slab of stone. on tbe edge of which iu large capitals De wrote, "lle Sang the Song Of the shirt This was the only inscription, and, as he himself has said, Tom Hood needs no other
 How much he felt and prided him self upon the song by which he became known and loved by millions is shown by this and the following fact; "lf I were ennobled these are the arms should adopt said he one day, show ine a rough vignette to friend, The sketch contained very beautiful and pathetic idea. It represented a heart pierced by a needle threaded with sil- yer tears. and beneath was the motto he had inscribed on the imaginary tombstone
 sThe Song of the shirt" appeared In the Christmas number of the fifth vol- ume of Punch. It was 2Gs.cned, but every paper in the land quoted Sc. and it speedily became the talk ot tho day. Hood himself did not think it very re- markable. but Mrs. Hood had said Co him as she folded it for press: "Now, mind. Hood. mark my words. this win ten wonderfully. lt Is one Of the best udncs you ever did
 Ms. Hood was right The song was translated into French. German and Italian. It was printed on cheap cot- ton handkerchlefs and parodied times without number.

Through 28 rounds of the
fastest boxing ever seen in Ia
coma, members of the Tacoma
Athletic club last night cheered
and clapped for boxers and Kissed
and hooted to show their disap-
prevail when draw decisions were
made by Referee Bruce Ashman.
Although both Bonds and Ma
rino were entitled to decisions,
Ashman called the bouts draws.
Judges were used only in the
Marino-Steele match or there
would have been a different story
for Moran to tell about his meet
ing with Bonds.
Joe Hill and George Smith
boxed four clever rounds and Ed
die Shepler deserved decision
over Jimmy Slamban.go. The two
bouts were between Joe Bonds
and Soldier Moran and Paul
Steele and Eddie Marine.
Bonds outfought his man in
the first round and the next Ave
rounds were even, both boys ex-
changing blows that would have
settled the fate of an army mule.
Moran was outfought and out
pointed in the seventh and eighth

and Is backed by every other club
in the Northwest to force the
return of the team uncondition-
ally. Business men of Tacoma
will take charge of the team and
put 1t on a strict financial basis.
d. X. Derrickson has preached
a scheme which might prove pop
ular. He suggests that the Taco
ma baseball club be taken over
by the city and financed by taxa
ton. Less than tenth of mill
would provide funds to spare and
the salary limit could he paid
every year.
Last night Fred Rothermel
agreed to turn the team over to
Ed Watkins, but changed his
mind over night and said that IL
Watkins got the team before June
1 there would be a legal battle.
The directors would like to give
Watkins the team but after get
ting away with the steal have no
way to let themselves down easy.
Watkins went to Seattle this
morning and his visit may bear
fruit.

rounds, Bonds fairly smothering
him with blows. Both men were
tired and Bonds did not have
steam enough left to land a sleep
powder, although he had several
opportunities. Bonds was SO
clearly entitled to the decision
that Emil Schock called at his
dressing room and declared
Bonds the winner, although he
had trained and seconded Moran.
Eddie Marino may have had a
shade the better of Paul Steele.
Both boys were in good condition
and travelled fast. Steele seemed
to lack the steam behind his
blows, although he showed him
self to be a fast and clever box
er, landing some telling blows on
Marine. The little Italian kept
boring in. He does not know
how to get away by foot work
and walks into the infighting like
duck taking tomwater. Steele
saved himself an adverse decision
after seven close rounds when IN
the 10th he came out strong and
fast and landed almost at will.
Neither man showed any great
cleverness at covering.

Force League to Return
Teamto Tacoma--O Only Way

That the Northwestern league
directors will have to return the
Tacoma franchise or lose the
combined support of the associat-
ed chambers of commerce In
every city in the Northwest, was
stated today by a prominent man
who refuses to be quoted. If the
directors do not return the fran
chise to Tacoma after such a bold
Steal as was pulled off Monday,
the chambers of commerce will
make it warm for Dugdsle, Bob
Brown, McCredie, Wattelet, Joe
Cohn and Fielder Jones.
The franchise has been tenn
porarily awarded to Everett, a
city of no consequence as compar-
ed with Tacoma. Three games
are to be played there this week
and IL the attendance is good the
team may stay there unless the
business men of the Northwest
can force the directors to admit
the steal and return the franchise
to Tacoma.
A movement has been started
by the Tacoma Commercial club

form this spring. He is tossing

feet, clearing the bar in the high
jump close to 6 feet and doing ~

He can step hundred yards In
