STRONG HANDS PUG'S
 GREATEST ASSET. Fighters Careers Depend More on Good Fists Than Physique.

After all the hands are the thing. Without them the ideal fighting face or the perfect fighting build is as naught. And with them the head, the power and all the other requisites of the successful ring artist can have but secondary consideration, says J. P. Garvey.
 Battling Nelson, who has stopped more battery charges than any fighter of a decade, had to go into temporary retirement a month or so ago because his maulers gave out. He banged Sammy Trott so often on the head at Springfield, O., that the bones of his crippled punishers could not stand the strain after 10 rounds and he had to stall out the rest of the fight. Just imagine the Dane having to quit on account of his hands! Talk about the irony of fatel Most of us pictured the battler spraWled out over five feet and a half of canvas knocked "dead' by punch. That seemed the plausible exit of Nelson from the game. We figured he couldn't stand the Wallopings for ever, even though he "ain't hardly hu- man."
 Hugo Kelly, the Italian middleWeight of Chicago, fought Eddie McGoorty at South Bend recently and took a beat ing. The battle was the first go for Hugo in same mcnths. He had been nursing 8 paS ef bad hands. These same hands possibly kept Kelly from g title. He gave Papke more trouble than any fighter outside of Ketchel.
 Until he injured his hitters, Prank Erne was champion of them all in the lightweight division. He was the pos seesor of 8 terrific pnnch and many of the bones in both hands were spltn- ta1a1 ot ana time ar, anOi
 Another fighter whose period of money making within the ropes was lessened by his hands failing him was Bob Fitzsimmons. Bob. of course, was old enough to quit when knocked out hy Bill Lang three years ago. but he could have parleyed with the gloves for at least a year longer but for his fighting apparatus.
 If Boh Mana fails to cop the middle weight belt he may attribute his fail ure in large measure to weak hands. For the build of him and the strength, Bob has unusually frail hands.
 Before his championship battle with Johnny KiIbane, Abe Attell made a special trip to Bonesetter Reese at Y Youngstown, O., to have the bones in his left hand set properly. If the great bonesetter had not relieved him Abe might have called off his bout with K1lbane.
 It's a peculiar fact that the clever men are usually most bothered by weak hands. Kelly Is clever, and so are Moha and Attell Packy McFar- land, too, has had trouble with his hands and he Is very careful not to hurt them. It seems that the hands of boxers who place their blows cleverly are broken oftener than the clouters of such sluggers as Stanley Ketchel. Jim Flynn, Tom McMahon and Chicago Knockout Brown, a type that lets the gloves fly regardless of consequences Johnny KiIbane, the featherweight king, has a set spot for most of his punches, and yet last year he was handicapped by 0 broken thumb on his right hand.
 It Is .he object of all pugilsts to save their hands, for they realize their worth.

sHELTERINe ARMS SERVICE
Interesting Address by Rev. c. A
 Northup-G. Avery Ray Sang.

Rev. c. A. Northup had charge of the service Sunday afternoon at the Shelterine Arms. He took for his text, Thy shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint There are few in the first class he said, the inventors and statesmen; the runners take the knowledge of the fliers and put it into practice. They are the managers of great corpora tions or those who plan large indus tries, or act as ministers. editors, teachers. They who walk are the in fantrY In Gods great army: good, earnest, faithful unknown souls who are serving God and being sustained thereby.
 The song service was made especial ly pleasing by the tenor solos, The Lost Chord and The Child of a King, given with fine expression by c. Avery Ray of Springfield, Mass, a former member of the choir of the First Congregational church. Other members of the choir who sang were Miss Ruth L. Porter, Miss Natalie F.

MIKE RYAN TELLS OF

Never Covered Full Distance at Top SPeed-Nine Weeks of Preparation.

Mike Ryan, who won the 1912 Bos- ton Athletic association run in record tine. is at present tho most talked of athlete in the country. Hia perform ance was such as 10 make athletic sharps look upon him as the logical favorite h the Olympic Marathon next July.
 Ryan's views on how to train for the long run will interest everyone con- rected with athletics, for his opinion must be considered supreme, as he has demonstrated what his methods have done for him.
 h the appended interview Ryan tells how he conditioned himself for the Boston run.
 T spent just nine weeks in training for the race. Lawson Robertson, the veteran coach of the Irish American Athletic club, was in charge of my training He groomed me carefully and instructed me as to how l should run throughout the long grind
 T did great deal of walking dur ing ths first two weeks of my training. One day I covered 45 miles. I did this to harden every musels in my body,
 After ny muscles were hardened I did plenty of running. I would run five niles it rapid paee and then welk five miles and then run five mere n4iies, th4s tiins at slew jog.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
READING ROOMS AGAIN.
EeiPsed All It's Previous Records 1T
 Last Hour by Three Points.

New York, April 29.-Aside from another sharp advance in the prem inent anthracite shares and more or less obvious manipulation at higher prices in various specialties the gen. eral tone of tOday's market was hesi- tating and dull. Last weeks sensa- tional trading in Reading was resum- ed on a moderate scale, putting that stock well above it's previous high rec ord and tnfusing some strength to the first and second preferred issues. Le- high Valley also figured prominently at a higher figure than 1t has recently attained. The movement in these se- curities seemed to be no less specula- tive than before. Such erstwhile lead- CTS as United States Steel. Union Pa cifc and Amalgamated Copper were relatively heavy. Traders seemed in disposed to buy or sell Steel pending the publication of its quarterly state ment tomorrow. As for Union Pa cific, it's earnings for March were not calculated to inspire any ventures on the bull side. The baclzwardness of Amalgamated Copper was the more striking in view of the actividy and strength of some outside copper prop critics. There were gains of one to four points in score of specialties, including National Biscuit, American Writing Paper preferred American Sugar, Virginia Carolina Chemical and Pullman Palace Car.
 In the last hour the entire market gave a better account of itself, with greater strength in Steel and Union Pacific, while Reading rose to it's best of the day and eclipsed all previous high prices by over three points. The closing was dull but strong, with d jump of 13 points fin Central of New Jersey, which is controlled in large part by the Reading company. Della ware and Hudson, another coal road rose 1-4 points, and there was sym pathetic advances in tho general list.
 No small part of the day's irreg- uarity was ascpibed to tho uncertainty and anxiety connected with impending political and industrial events. Though the differences between the railway managers and the engineers are be- livered 10 SC moving toward a satisfae- tory adjustment, it is realized that scme important points in the c0Dtre- versy remain to be settled, There were other adverse speculative fac tors, including the latest turn in the International Harvester dissolution proceedings and few unsatisfactory railroad reports. Harvester declined over two points early in the day and made but slight recovery, Northern Pacific reported s1nGft net increase, for March. hui the Rock Island sys- tenn lost over S350.690 in net for that month.
 London WAS a liberal seller here. but operations for that account were SO mixed as to make analysis q matter of difficulty,
 The local bond market was irres- uiAr, with a lower tendency. Total sales, par value, amounted to S2,S04,- coo,
 United States government bonds were unchanged on call.
