Crowd Starts Freeforall-
Sheriff Called.

Gus Pappas, the Rock Island wrest-
Ter, is getting a warm reception out
on the coast, according TO advices re-
ceived from the Golden state. After
Mendoza had wrestled two hours and
20 minutes at Hayward, Oct. 2. without
getting Pappas for a single fall, he
hit the Rock Islander in the eye.
Pappas retaliated with two straight
arm rights to the nose, and the wrest-
ling watch was transformed into a
prize fight. The entire crowd Joined
in the riot, and the sheriff's forces
were called to quell the disturbance.
The gate receipts, s1,700. were equal
ly divided between the two contest
ants. In letter to the sporting edi-
tor OF The Argus, George Nicholson,
the Rock Island Greek demon, who IS
managing Pappas, tells of the affray.

paper tells Of the Pappas-MendoGa
match referred to above:

Hayward, Cal, Oct. "A wrestling
match last night between Joseph Men
doGa, who claims the championship of
California, and Gus Pappas, a chal-
lenger. resulted in a riot in which
over a thousand spectators took part
For more than an hour the rioters
fought with fists and pieces of broken
furniture. The pavilion in Hayward
park was wrecked and today half the
population is nursing black eyes and
bruised heads
"A riot call sent to Sheriff Barnett
brouEhti six deputy sheriffs in an
automobile and after threatening 10
make arrests the crowd was dispersed.
"The row started when Mendoza, af.
ter trying for two hours and 20 min.
utes TO throw his opponent, lost his
temper and gouged Pappas in the eye
Pappas retaliated with a short arm
1ab on Mendoza's nose that brought
blood and loud cries from the specta
tors. In n moment the crowd forced
way to the ring and the fight began
in earnest. When fists proved in
efectual the chairs were broken and
with each side armed with broken
furniture the fight went merrily OF
with the two wrestlers in the center

Easy Miracles

A young Irish curate was preaching
his first sermon, and chose for his text
the miracle of the loaves and fishes
He was very nervous and read it: "And
they fed five people with five thousand
loaves OF bread and five thousand
fishes"
Thereat one of his rustic hearers
murmured, loud enough to be heard,
"That's no miracle, begorra. ] could
do that myself"
The curate overheard him, and so on
the following Sunday he announced the
same text, but had it right this time;
"And they fed five thousand people
with five loaves of bread and few
fishes
He paused a second and then leaned
over the pulpit and said:
"Could you do that, Mr.. Murphy"
Murphy replied; 'Sure yer rever-
ence, could"
And how could you do it?" asked
the priest.
Sure, yer reverence, could do it
with what was left over from last
Sunday."-Ex.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER II, 1913

A bulletin issued by the Seattle
School of Sanitary Science contains
the following reference to the use OF
garbage as fuel.
''Sanitarians have made, during the
last year or two, many tests as to the
value of garbage, or kitchen refuse, as
a fuel. 1t has been found to be fuel
of value, inasmuch as the vegetable
waste is frequently mixed with grease,
fats and other combustible materials.
The Commissioner of Health OF Seat
tie burns all his kitchen waste, as does
the Chief Sanitary Engineer OF the de-
partment, in the kitchen range or
furnace In many countries rich and
poor alike never think OF throwing away
this material, but always use it forfuel
''If every householder would burn
this material every day they would re-
duce ther own fuel bill, lessen their
taxes for the collection of garbage and
produce better sanitary condition IN
their household. Weprefer this manner
of disposal of our kitchen refuse, rather
than to throw it into garbage can and
allow it to stand around for several days
before it can be empted. We are not
speaking of the general waste OF the
household; we are cenfning ourselves
to the term garbage which term
should be applied only TO kitchen
refuse"
This undoubtedly is a safe, sane and
sanitary method OF disposing OF much
of the kitchen and dining-room surplus.
1t is not anew discovery since it is prac-
ticed in many households everywhere.
The principal drawback to the plan is
that the old-iashioned kitchen range or
stove is disappearing from both city and
country kitchen. The gas range and the
coal-oil stove are taking the place OF
the ranges and stoves which burned
coal or wood Furnaces are in use only
during the winter months, hence they
are not available at those seasons when
garbage disposal is most important
In households where it is practicable
the plan suggested is altogether com
mendable- in fact about the easiest and
best solution of the garbage problem.
But what with gas ranges and oil stoves
and fireless cookers and electrical
devices for culinary use there is increas-
ing need for the garbage can-undesir
able though it be and offensive to all
sense of cleanliness.
