POVERTY AFFTDAVTTS'' APP
 PEAR TO BE CONVENIENT
The Way They Work When Filed With
 Bankruptcy Petitions.

Business people apparently are be coming more familiar with all of the provisions of the United States bank ing law. Formerly when an indi- vidual, co-partnership, or corporation filed a voluntary petition in bank ruptcy, the filing fee of $S0 invariably. accompanied the petition. For the last few months, when petitions have been filed, it has been rare that the filing fee has accompanied the petition, but instead of paying the $30. the one hl- ing the petition has made an affl- davit that he is without and cannot obtain the money with which to pay the filing fee.'' and the affidavit has always accompanied the petition.
 Undoubtedly. it is true. that some of those filing petitions in bankruptcy cannot raise the amount of the filing fee, but last week there were six vol untary petitions filed in the court and including one from a copartnership of three members. and with each peti- ton was filed a. poverty affidavit, g decIAring the petitioner was unable to raise the filing money. But it doesn't make any difference, some may say, and the $50 filing fee has to be paid before the bankrupt can expect to get a discharge from bankruptcy, but in that case tine money comes from the creditors, instead of from the bank rupt. Presumably, if the fee was paid at the time of the filing of the pet- ton, the money would be paid from money that the bankrupt had raised and that does not, in all eases, neces- sariIy mean that,. by the payment of the $30 at the time of the filing of the petition in bankruptcy, the liabilities of the bankrupt would be increased by that amount.
 When the bankrupt makes poverty aff1davit'' that he is without and cannot obtain the money with which to pay the filing fee,'' the $50 is paid from the assets of the estate and $50 represents 10 per cent. on $500. Not only that, but the man. opartnership, or corporation that files a voluntary affidavit, goes through bankruptcy at the expenses of creditors whom he had previously stuck and there are some who feel that man should, himself, pay for the privilege of going through bankruptcy. All men, corporations, or copartnerships filing petitions general ly can raise money enough to pay the lawyers who prepare the schedules for them, as there is no provision in the federal bankruptcy law by which the payment of the lawyers fee can be evaded, but the creditors are losers by his getting into bankruptcy and they have to stand the expense of his going through it and getting out. by having the $30, on which they might sbe paid a dividend, taken from the assets to pay the filing fee, and the dividends accordingly reduced.

HANK GRIFFIN JUST
 MISSED BEING GREAT

One of the greatest ~.might-have beenss in ring history was Hank Grimm a mulatto boxer, who died at Ann Arbor, Mich. two years ago to- day. With more money for proper training and expert management, Hank might have been developed into a champion heavy weight for he was one of the fastest and gamest of his time Jim Jeffries fought his first professional battle with Hank as his opponent, twenty years ago in Los Angeles. Grin's latter days were spent teaching boxing to the youths of the University of Michigan, and before that he conducted a fight club very successfully and travelled as 8 min sfreI-
 Hanks best fighting days were spent in California, and his principal in come was derived from acting as spar ring partner and trainer to more sue cessful boxers. He served in that ca pacity to Bob F1tzsimmons, and help ed condition the Australian for his bout with Jefrfes. Grin fairly icol- 1zsd Ruby Robert and as cordially hated Jefries. Jeff and Griff first min gIed in the ring in 1893, when the fu- lure champion was husky lad of eighteen It was JefPs first battle, while Grff7n was an accomplished ring general
 The eolored man made a monkey of Jen during the first part of the mill, but Jen waded in for more. and in the fourteenth round put over a blow that stretched Hank out for the count Af- ter Jem had defeated F'itz and Corbett he toured the country offering a thou sand dollars to any man who could stand before him four rounds. Hank accepted the challenge and the sxhi- -oitfon was staged in Los Angeles in September, 1901.
 Jen had an advantage in weight of forty pounds or more, but 1t didn't nr7r T1lr danced out of the way Of Jeff's rus9es, occasionally landing a stinger. Dur ing one of Jef's buIl-like charges Hank saw an opening for his best punch, and sent the human mountain to the floor Jeff was up in a few seconds. wilder than ever, but Hank Kept out of his way without apparent efHort, and stayed the four rounds, getting away with Jeffs thousand. The following year Hank took on Jack Johnson in two battles, one of fifteen and the other of twenty rounds, and got draw decision in both.

INSPECTORS AT GRAPHOPHONEI 1
 HAVE GOOD BALL TEAM

The Graphophone Inspectors have organized for the season of 1913 and are prepared to put up a nifty game Of baseball.
 Saturday afternoons and holidays will be their convenient open time and they would like to arrange some games with any of the clever amateur teams of the city or it's environs, such as the Bankers or Plum bers' clubs.
 All communications should be sent to their manager, Depts. 75 or 10s, where they will receive prompt atten- ton.
 The following list of players shows their lineup and indicates some class: Lomme, c; McGrath, p, (Capt.); Mo Loughlin, ss; Eddy, lib; O'Hara, 2b; McArd1e, 3b and D; Haggerty, Mos grove, Allen, Nagy, Dolan, fielders.
 Most of the members of the team have been identified with other clubs. McGrath is an old Riverside player; Eddy was connected with a fast anna teur team in New York State; flag gerty is a clever Boston amateur; Mo Ardle made good in Kingston, N. Y-; Mclaughlin has put up snappy base ball with the Map1ewoods, and OEfara produced the real article with the 2d Black Rock team.
 Manager Moore has gathered to' gether fast little band of ball play CTS and expects them to give a good account of themselves before the close Of the season

 essnI4f,ss ey1Ikc5~ defeat of Rombarater wells has given the navy man a splendfd boost and he deserves it. but at the same time the chances are that nErCarty would have beaten the Brit isher just as quickly. and the one n1s- ta1pe he made, or rather his manager, Bi7fy HEcCarney, was in not taking the Wells match before Smith grabbed It
 Another hope who appears to be- coming back after defea< at thel hands Of Gunboat Smith is George Rodel. the Boer champion, who seems to be getting better with each fight and who appears to have considerable class. He will have bo run the gaunt- let however. before he can hope to- grab of the title.
 At present there are more promis ing heavy weight fighters than we have had for years and the 1ndica- ttons are that Mistah Jack Johnson would not have the easy time run ming through the list now that he had previously And besides the big col ured champion is getting to the same point Jim Jeffries was in when he lost to Johnson through lack of condi- tio1 Johnson has been living a. life Of ease for some time now without tra1ning. and if he should fight again he will find 1t a very different prop ositlon than when he met Jeffries. And if the coIored man should want 6 eraclz at 1GcCarty the latter Is only too willing to accommodate him. Things have surely changed in the past ten months:
