If was winner take all always felt
confident 1 could beat Neary IN ~
round bout on cleverneSS alone, ana
surely did so that night there being
M room for argument when we got
through I really felt sorry for charlie
afterwards to think that he should
work so hard and not get cent for
his trouble. but it was all IN the game
and he took his chance the same as
did. But you can take my word ana
gamble all you have that II was on
Wfnner-ta ke-au basis, but the only one
7 ever engaged in on such terms And 1
viii say, too. that Charles Neary was
been better handled
Just recently at Jackson. Mich, a lad
named Billy Allen died from the effects
Of severe exercise in an amateur box
ing bout. at least il was alleged that
such was the case, but the coroner's
jury decided that death was due to
weak heart and the rupture of a heart
valve.
No sooner had the announcement
been made that the boy was dead than
the state authorities gave notice that
the lid was on" and that there would
be no more boxing bouts.
Now suppOslng that the death haQ
been due to severe exercise on the FOOT
ball field instead of in bOXlng-WOuld
the governor have clamped down the
lid" on football games2 Not on your
lifel And il can be stated here that
there were u deaths on the football
field last fan from rough playing
Would the authorities have stopped
all ball games had the same lad been
killed on the ball field while playing
Not muchl And still 1t might be well
to mention that three deaths have &C
CURED so far this season from young
men being hit by baseballs.
Would the state authorities nave pro-
hibited auto racing had the same lad
been killed in an accident of that kind
Mo- And still there were numerous
auto drivers killed last summer and
fall when they were driving their cars
at daredevil speed
And aero racing Well forget that
sport for the deaths are too numerous
to mention.
why the authorities should always
pick the boxing game out to make
goat of is hard to fathOm, unless II
is that there are not enough defenders
of the sport to give the officials worry
What howl would go up should they
attempt TO stop football, baseball or
auto raclng-
It only proves more cOncluSively than
ever that we are badly In need or
state law to govern the sport OF box
ing a law that viii make II possible
to control the sport properly and thus
lessen the chance Of serious accidents
If the lawmakers really want to pre-
vent such accidents the SureSt way IS
to put the sport under proper control,
where all boxers viii have to undergo
thorough medical examination, where
rings are properly padded and where
referees will be amenable to the au-
thOrities for infracuOns of the rules.
That boxing Is popular goes without
SAYING. The thousands who attend the
shows two and three times week in
most Of the big cities is ample proof
OF the game. What fans want now IS
a law that viii help to prevent Just
such accidents as cited above.

STOP MOTOR SPEEDING FACULTY NOW ENGAGED
Too Many Cyclists Use the Streets For
RaCetraCk; Pedestrians Are
In Danger

There has been much complaint
recently about the mOtorcyclists
speeding on the city streets. There
has been cause for the complaint
and some action should be taken to
stop the pernicious practice of Che
speeders North Broad street par
ticularly has been the race course
for the motorcycIists, and lives of
pedestrians are constantly in danger
there.
Action has already been taken to
stop the speeding in Sibley Park
and now something should be done
to prohibit it in the streets. 1t has
been suggested that the most salts
factory way to stop it is to make a
few arrests and impose fines.
Complaint has also been made
about two people riding on one mo-
torcycle. Many of the drivers allow
another person to ride between the
handle bars and the seat, sitting side
ways on the rod which connects
those Two parts of the machine.
This throws the machine out of bal
ance and obstructs the view of the
driver, SO that they are not able to
steer as well as they should In
many cities this practice is strictly
prohibited by ordinance.

MAIL POUCH WAS FOUND
Mystery Attaches to the Discovery Of
Sack Under Culyert at

Northwestern depot at st. Peter on
Saturday last discovered mail
pouch hidden under the culyert. Up
on investigation it was found that
the pouch strap had been cut and
the matter was reported to the
authorities. Thel" SENS to be quite
a mystery as to how the pouch got
to that place. 1t is known that the
pouch was outgoing and was intend
ed for the 7:45 train going west.
1t is not known whether the pouch
had been received on the train or
not. When found it contained only
a bundle of papers addressed to
Klossner. Great mystery attaches
itself to the affair but it is generally
conceded that it must have been
local work as no professional would
go after a pouch on stub line such
as that between Mankato and New

PUTS IN SAL 80 CLAIM
City OF Minneapolis Is Sued BY County
Of Redwood; the Reason
Therefor

The city of Minneapolis has been
made defendant in a damage suit
that assistant city attorneys say will
touch upon the validity of certain
legislative acts passed over fifteen
years ago.
$741.S0, contending that such an
amount was spent in caring for Mel
lie l.. Risch, or Reach, from October
81, 1911, until April 25, 1912, when
she died at Redwood Falls from
burns received on October 81, 1911.
In bringing the suit the Redwood
county authorities cite an act of July
1. 1891, as authority for the action.
They contend that the legislature in
tended for the city of Minneapolis to
provide for the needy poor of both
Minneapolis and Hennepin county.
The Risch woman was born in
Minneapolis, and in 1903 was COM
mitted to the state home for the
feeble-minded August 10, 1911, she
was discharged and, instead of re-
turning home, went to Redwood
Falls and secured work with w. c..
Starr. Forty-one days later she was
fatally burned, and although a resi-
dent of Hennepin county the Red
wood authorities provided her with
medical attention and treatment.
When she died a claim for $741 so
was filed by physicians.

MORE MONEY is WANTED
Request TO BE Made OF Hennepin County
To Raise Appropriation For

g. A. Dole, president of the Pro-
duce Refrigerating company of Min
reapolis was in the city Monday and
while here met with County Com
missioner Hohmann and talked over
the matter of Minneapolis and Hen
nepin county assisting in making up
the deficiency in the federal post road
fund. Mr.. Dole suggested that Man
kato ought to have representative
at the meeting of the county board
of Hennepin county when they will
be asked to appropriate $4,000 for
that purpose
Mr.. Holman volunteered to rep
resent Mankato at the meeting and
Mr.. Dole thought that it would be
well for Mr. Hohmann to meet pre-
viously with the directors of the
Minneapolis Civic and Commerce as
sociation in order that a clear under
standing of the situation be given
the board. Mr.. Holman will prob
ably represent Mankato at that meet
ing also. Mr.. Dole promised to
make the necessary arrangements
for the meetings and to notify Mr.
Holman when the time has been
