ly call him that but he's as close or
closer to 1t than anybody else right
now, and that's going some. Besides
that, he has wiped out that Clabby de-

McGoorty fought last night as we
never have seen him fight before.
Klaus made him fight but Eddie was
willing. He knew he had to make
good and he battled viciously from the
first bell to the last. He won the last
three rounds which is proof enough
that he was the victor, for Klaus was
expected to outhnish him. When it Is
considered that Klaus was some five
pounds bigger than he. Eddie's show

GREAT DANGER FROM FIRE

The State Fire Marshal is remind
ing the people of Kansas that fires
are occurring daily from sparks
catching In trash piles, from chill
dren playing with matches and set
ting fire to dry grass and vegeta-
tion. and from smokers carelessly
dropping matches the flames Of which
are not entirely extinguished. All
OF these fires could be avoided and
their occurrence can in nearly every
instance be charged to carelessness.
Trash and rubbish should be burned
only when some one is near with a
supply of water to stop any spread
of the flames.
Many barn fires are occurring
from spontaneous combustion caused
by storing new hay Openings In
each end of the hay loft will provide
ventilation that may prevent fire.
II a barrel Of water were kept near
every barn, many of the fires could
be put out. A number of fires have
recently destroyed barns and live
stock In them because no water was
near to check the fire at the start!
