MANY THOUSANDS
WERE FEASTED
BY CHARITIES
NOBLE WORK ACCOMPLISHED
Poor of New York We're Pro.
Vided For

New York, Nov. 28.-Thanksgiving
feasting began in New York with the
opening of the Bowery Missions bread
line, with food enough on hand to sat
isfy the needs of three thousand hun
cry Migrants. The work of the We
rious charitable organizations con
tinued throughout the day very close ~
the program carried out in previous
years, Notwithstanding that high
prices OF foodstuffs made the WORK
more expensive than ever.
At least half a dozen dinners, at
each of which 1000 to 5000 persons
were to be served, were provided.
and in addition to this work of the
regular philanthropic organizations
it appeared that an unusually large
number of private benefactors had
arranged to help the unfortunate IN
some way or another.
In many ordinary households the
dread spectre of the high cost of liv-
ing dethroned the traditional turkey,
the retail price of which had risen
on the eve of Thanksgiving to thirty
five cents a pound for the best
grades, and twenty-five to thirty
cents pound for cold storage fowls.
Although it had been predicted
that the arrivals of poultry, which
were larger than for several years,
would show that the turkey was
holding it's own, the total receipts
are said to hover about twenty-five
tons less in turkey arrivals than in
other years
According to retail dealers, the
shortage is due to the fact that stor-
age warehouses are holding the birds
already killed for the Christmas an
New Year trade, and the farmers arc
keeping their stock for another
month so that the turkeys will be
fatter and command higher Lrices.

VELVET AND FUR A FAVORITE
COMBINATION

dyed furs are really not as attractive
as the furs with their natural colors.
1865 is smartly fashioned of a bro
caded velvet; the huge collar. the muH,
also the band around the bottom of the
skirt are of black fur. This coat may
be made in size 36 with yards of AZ
inch velvet or material. A gracefully
draped overskirt is feature of the
fascinating frock for afternoon shown
in 1885. The wide hip sash of Roman
stripes would liven the most somber
of materials. One Of the most attrac-
tive novelties being shown in the shops
at the moment is the knitted sash of
colored silks. They come in various
widths and drape most beautifully.
To copy 1885 in size SO requires 7B

GOLF GOSSIP


Those who are prone to delye into
the why's and wherefores of things
golfing, have been giving considerable
attention Of late to the establishment
of some system whereby the luck OF
the draw will not play such havoc
in the future as 1t has done in the
past. There always has been more or
less criticism of the present method
OF pairing players for the first round
of match play. and more. than one
plan has been brought forward t
eliminate, as far as possible, the. ele-
ment Of lnck that attends the meth
Cd 6f operation.
The system in general nse is to as
sign number to each player in the
division and to place all the numbers
n q hat or box A number is drawn
and the second number is paired with
the FIRST. the third with the fourth
and soson. 1t seems to have been the
perverseness of fate. that on more
laah one occasion the luck OF the
draw has brought together on the
same side Of the bracket most of the
best players in the tournament, so
that men OF sterling worth have been
forced to meet each other before the
late match rounds, thus preventing
what might otherwise have resulted
In q spectacular finish.
In view of this element Of fortune
playing such an important part In the
success or failure, from competitive
point of view. of tournament, golf
theorists have brought forward sys-
TEN OF automatically arranging the
match play. The plan, which although
by no means new, is not yet in gener-
al use, has its ardent advocates and
has been tried with considerable sue
cess at various clubs. BY this system
there is no actual draw, for there is
posted key whereby the man who
wins the medal meets the man who
finishes ninth in the qualifying round, :
thus forming the first match of the
upper part of the bracket. The sec
ond man meets No. 10, and this match
lis placed as the last one of the lower
half of the bracket, which is planned
to prevent the meeting of the medal
list and the second man until late in
the tournament, thus to a certain ex-
tent regerying the best matches for
the climax The draw under this ar
rangement would be made as follows:
Upper bracket VS.. 9, s VS.. Is, z
vs. Is. and VS.. IL.
Lower bracket4 VS.. IL, VS.. IA, 8
VS.. Is. and VS.. 10.
In other words, The best players in
the tournament are prevented from
clashing until toward the end, which

could win fights, then there would be
no use of going to the Bijou theater
tomorrow evening to see the various
glove artists go through the motions.
One and all of the men who are to-
appear on Dick Sullivan's card are
convinced that their work in the ring
will be mere sformality. 1t would be
impossible to get together more
sanguine aggregation of punch trad
ers artists, and this of itself guar
antees q tip-iop entertainment OF
course at least half of the pugilistic
gentlemen win be sadly surprised. If
there are any draws, then the proper
ton Of surprises win be greater than
so per cent for every fighter expects
nothing less than a,knockout or a de-
cision in his favor.
Reilly and Donovan are through
with hard work, and having no weight
worries can take things easy for the
last two days, doing only enough to
keep themselves in good shape Both
boys have trained hard and faithful
ly, and have done everything possible
to do justice to themselves and the
public when they enter the ring.
Donovan still remains a slight fa-
vorite, but there is hui of well post
ed ring fans who have been watching
Reilly's work carefully, and who are
favorably impressed with his inn
proved form There is no doubt but
that Reilly in his time has been one
of the cleverest of the second string
fighters Has he the condition to
make his science count, is the ques-
ton that Saturday night will see de-
cided
the Piszczek-Giles Ground engage
ment is producing almost as much
speculation and comment as the main
event In spite of Giles reputation
made in the northwest, Piszczek is
the popular choice, his admirers be-
lieving that his ruggedness and abili-.
ty to assimilate punishment will give
him considerably the better of the
Giles didn't make, a very
impressive showing against Bauer
sock when they came together here
several months ago. and while SNOWY
in both foot and glove work, he
doesn't seem to be there with the real
stuff that counts
Piszczek hasn't been able to,indulgei
in the fancy training stunts that the
other fighters have gone through with
during the past two weeks. He has
been out in the field with his COM
pany, and has been doing some of the
hardest hiking imaginable This has
been excellent as general condition
er, but Piszezek would have been bet
ter off with little more boxing, and
a chance to sleep in real bed. in
stead of on the cold, cold ground.
However, he has been making the
best of conditions, and when he en-
tiers the ring win probably be harder
and tougher than any of the other
scrappers.
Yesterday afternoon Dick Sullivan
made a trip out to the battalion camp
mauka of Pearl City, and went three
full rounds with Piszczek 1t is al
ways a pleasure to see Sullivan spar,
his work standing out for cleanness,
speed and finish, and If Piszczek had
more sparring partners Of this class
he would improve wonderfully. Yes

ms THORPE was probably one Of
, the greatest athletes in all history.
He broke record after record and won
the highest possible honors In the
greatest track and field games o. the
century. Despite this. Thorpe Is prac-
tically forgotten. and seldom. very
seldom. Is any mention Of his name
made. Whether or not that Is lack
Of appreciation on the part of the
American people OF his wonderful pr
formances. or whether It Is the carry
ing out OF the policy not 70 think much
Of anything or anybody after the
searchlight Of publicity has been with
drawn. Is impossible to say. but &
would certainly seem that little or no
credit is now extended to Thorpe. Il
is q fact that the people Of q foreign
country are taking greater recognition
Of Thorpe's prowess than are his own
conntrymen. A movement has been
started In Sweden TO raise money
enough to buy Thorpe an honoraCY
