SPEAKS on RHYTHM.
Dr. Shyrock gave a very entertaining

He declared that the ministry OF

GAGE WORKS OUT BEFORE
 LARGE CROWD OF FANS
New Lightweight Star Shines Before Afternoon Crowd-Takes on
 Four Men

A splendid workout at the Phoenix A. C. yesterday showed some of the stuff possessed by Frankie Gage, the young lightweight, who is to box Jack McMahn, the Prescott fireman, here the night of May 23. The young Flor entine took on four of the best men who offered, and in all did over seven rounds. Herb Gorcister, manager of the club and promoter of all the bouts, was in remarkable form, and when he took his boy on for d short mill made Frankie really box to keep up. Herb is former lightweight of note but he has not all gone to seed yet, as was demonstrated yesterday before q large and appreciative audience of fans.
 Trib, being Big Tribolet's front cuss word, went in the ring with the pig1ny and was nicely laced about the face, so much so that he displayed all the symptoms of a keg of wine that had been scientifically punctured by the bartender's little you know"
 Interest in the coming bout centerss on the main go, naturally, as it should, but there are going to be some crack ing preliminaries- Tommy Burns the big little fighter, aching to have his name spread upon the public prints, has entered a solemn promise to do something shocking-if he has to, he will knock out his man; in fact, any thing short of killing him, to make these stingy promoters recognize him as a main-go kid.
 Word comes from Prescott that Me Mann is working even harder for the Gage battle than he did for the last one with Dan Matthews. Gage is here and promises to make all Mack's work stand for naught when they face each other for the tenth round Friday night. Fans have good reason to hope for faster bout this time than before for McMahn will certainly work harder against Frankie than he did against Dan, and Gage is no slouch himself Mack will feature heavy work in close range with as much getaway as
 he can, while Gage will rely on speed. Gage is d Rivers type lightweight while the Prescott railroader runs more to Joe Mandot'S funny fashion of a slug and a backward flip out of harms way. In case of necessity Gage will stand up and swap swats with Mack, but his chief holt will be his speed. There is little chance of a bloody battle or one to K O. next Friday, for both the contestants | have secretly planned to make it a fast plill with lots of footwOrk and feints and things

Hart.

Strings and Springs the comedy burlesque presented by the Hart stock company last evening certainly more than made good. The comedy is clean, the company well balanced. and every thing moved with that swing that is the forerunner of success. John Brady who occupies the leading role, that of a German theater manager carried out his part in such good style that the audience were 10th to let him retire and the rest of the company supported him in a manner that left nothing to be desired. The photo plays are ex- celIent including The Last Run of the old Santa Fe Coach". "Nobodys Love Story" and an Animated Weekly de- picting happenings of the past week.

like 2 fairy story. Wm. NJ. Wood was born in a little cottage at Edgartown, Martha's Vineyard. April ,, 1861. His father, JacinthO Silva, was a poor and sickly Portuguese cobbler, born in Fa val, Azores, who came to this country as cooks helper on sailing ship Fol lowing the example of some of his countrymen he Americanized his name by calling himself William Jacinthe Wood. The captain, who had brought Jacintho to this country, befriended the man and set him up in the fishing
 trade at EdgartoWn. Jacintho married and Vim. M Wood. their firstborn, first saw the light of day in the little fish erman's hut.
 About the time of the close of the
 Civil War, the family moved to New
 Bedford, where Jacintho found work. His little son showed such exceptional
 brightness that the agent of the steam ship company for which Jacintho worked, took great interest in him and sent him to school at his expense
 When Wm. NJ Wood was eleven years of age. his father. who had always been sickly, died of consumption, leaving his widow and a family of three children practically penniless. The boy who had hoped to go through high school was compelled to give up his studies and go to work. He obtained a posi- ton as messenger boy in the office Of the Wamsutta mills and showed such ability and ambition that when he ex- pressed desire to learn the technical branch of the work, he was given an opportunity. After six years in the mill he obtained position in the bank Of J. A Beauvais. When he was off cred a position as assistant superinten- dent Of some mills in Fall River, MT. Wood accepted the offer and soon gained a reputation for his ability in mliI management. Six years later he became superintendent of the Wash ington mills, then owned by pr. Fred. Aver of patent medicine fame and in due time he married the millionaires daughter Backed by the wealth of his fatherin-law Mir Wood began the organization of the gigantic corpora ton known as the American Woolen company, of which he became the pres ldent and controlling manager. He also has valuable interests in other indus trial enterprises and financial institu- tions.
