MILWAUKEE OFF
Tom Andrews Cancels Match Be-
tween Champion and Ad VOL
CAST for March.

~ AN FRANCISCO, Feb. willie
\ Ritchies link" is still on
job, After turning down
a big offer to go to Australia
on the ground that he could
pick up $4,000 in Milwaukee in
arch and $4,000 in this city in
April, Richie finds that he can not
get chance at the Milwaukee money.
A telegram from Tom Andrews, the
promoter who was endeavoring to ar
range match over the ten round
route between the champion and the
man he took the title from, AID VOL
CAST, laid the patch away quietly.
The champion is about satisfied
that he will be able to box in March
although he has not yet put his foot
10 the much talked of and frequently
proposed testfwhich he and Manager
Foley are going to pull off some day
soon.
Now. Willie Is on the horns of a
dilemma. He has an offer to box ten
rounds with Joe AzeVedo in San
Francisco before the Tuxedo Club I'm
March, The matchmaker of the club
has offered TO guarantee him $500
but Willie does not want to appear
here before the Murphy match. Oak
land also wants to put him on with
Azevedo. but Oakland is barred for
the same reason, and besides the Oak
land guarantee would only be $1,000

will be the boss heavyweight Of the
world and the theatrical agents will
be lying in wait for him and hand
ing him chunks of wealth"
Without wishing to appear too In
quisitive, Mr.. Jones, on what do you
base this foretaste of a tidal wave Of
success for Mr.. Willard?" was a ques-
ton put by the writer
ION the vast improvement in Will
lard's ringmanshtp," said Jones.
Mind you, he did not have to i'm
prove to beat Gunboat. He beat him
the last time, but was the victim of
as wrongful decision as was ever
delivered. But let that go. Next time
the referee will have so little to do
that he will simply be amongst those
present. Yes, sir; Willard has i'm
proved to such an extent that those
who saw him fight before will scarce
ly realize that it is the same man"
Are you allowing nothing for i'm
proVement in Gunboat?"
Jones Can't See Smith at All.
Not great deal" said Tom, with
the suspicion of a sneer. There are
fighters who never improve, and Gun
boat is one of them. He's only a
botch. All he has is that haymaker,
and it's only the fellows who are
scared of it that get in the way of
it. They tell me he missed Pelky a
hundred times and might have kept
on missing him only that Pelky was
tired and discouraged and did not
care what happened"
why didn't Willard show some of
this wonderful improvement when he
boxed Carl Morris?" Jones was
asked.
Because Morris wouldn't let him."

Here's Why Tinker Is
Not Managing Reds

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb 4-Juius
Fleischmann. one of the owners of the
Cincinnati Baseball Club. who is a Wis
ltor on the Coast. to-day gave his rea-
sons for deposing Joe Tinker as man
ager Of the Cincinnati team, and turn
ing him over To Brooklyn.
THE club with which | am associated
let Tinker go because We were of the
opinion that Tipker was not a good
manager for us.
Tinker insisted that everything had
TO be done according to his ideas He
insisted upon naming the hotels which
the men would stop at, and the rail
roads over which they would travel, and
he also made it plain to the directors
of the club that their opinion made no
difference to him.
"Of course We figured that a man
ager Of that description could not handle
our affairs and we made the deal with
Brooklyn. Now. it appears that Tinker
will not play with Brooklyn, but Will
take hold Of the Chicago Federal League
club That. of course, has nothing to
do with II, though we are sorry 10 see

lfTF Eddie Hanlon will stand up

was the statement made by Mickey
Cannon, the tough Pittsburg welter-
weight, yesterday afternoon, after he
had finished boxing five hard rounds
with Jimmy Grant, the fast bantam
weight.
80 they say that Eddie can hit

ing fans. l expect to rush Eddie from

Gibbons, as he is the bird / want to

Although Mickey appears to be con-
fident of victory, he does not want
the fans to think that he is under
rating the local boy. Mickey has
been in the game too long for any
thing of that sort, and it is a good bet
that he will keep a close watch on
Eddie's right when the gong rings
Friday night calling them to the cen
ter of the ring. At least. Mickey says
he will, and that's all there is to 1t at
the present time.
THE Cannon Hanlon bou- is sched-
1 uled TO go ten rounds and this
should be long enough distance to
decide the better boy. Both battlers
have promised to fight from the start.
which means that local fans should
see enough action in this set-to.
Harry Staten. however, is taking no
chances He has booked three other
matches and they are all corkers. The
Britt Grant affair should be a fast
mill as both boys are OF the same
weight and have shown much class
around here, Grant will go after a
match with Johnny Coulon If he beats
Britt while Spider" says he is out
70 break Jimmy's long winning streak.
The boys are billed to go eight
rounds.
T OCAL fans will also have a chance
II to see their favorite battler, Kid"
ton Young has been idle for a few
weeks. but is now ready to start out
on busy campaign. He meets Kid
Goldman, OF Chattanooga for six
rounds and promises to dispose OF his
opponent. Young Is a willing. ag-
gressive ringman and always gives a
good account of himself
The opening bout of the evening
will be between Battling Brown and
Jack Wilks, Harry Staten says both
these scrappers are corners and has
promised the winner a match with
some good boy at some future date.
They are to go four rounds.
Staten is expecting a large crowd
TO attend the show and is making
ample arrangements to take care of
all the fans Harry has certainly Sc
cured the best BOYS in and around
Atlanta and deserves the support of
local boxing followers

The game with Vanderbilt should

said to have far from a strong team
this season. On the other hand there
is some fine material on the locs-
team, and If the boys get to working
right they are likely to come home

Coach Jameson has been working

Gotham Expert Disagrees With
Jennings as to Men Suffering
From Long Trip Abroad.
By Frank G. Menke.

NEW YORK, Feb. with all
Y due respect 10 the excellent
baseball judgment OF Hughey
jennings, of the Tigers, We can not
refrain from taking a slight excep-
ton to some OF his recent utterances.
Hughey deplores the fact that some
members of the Giants, White Sox
and a scattering of players from
other teams went on world tour,
playing ball at odd moments Hugh
ey fears that the continuous ball
playing" OF the tourists Will make
them go stale and generally put them
on the fritz as far as the regular
1914 season is concerned,
Hughey would have us imagine that
those tourists really are working
that they are exerting themselves to
the utmost, and that there's a large
chance OF at least half Of them dying
from overwork before they get back
to their native shores. Hughey feels
that those who survive the trip will
come home with SO many busted
bones. with such shattered constitu-
lions and so generally worn out that
they'll nave to be confined in the Old
Mems Home AT once.
Isn't Hughey the joker though?

HOW PARIS STYLES MAKE
MUCH HAIR FROM LITTLE

You have noticed the prevailing hair
styles, which are Partisan, make it i'm
possible to use false hair because OF
the simple lines which conform to the
natural shape of the head 1t therefore
becomes necessary to make your own
hair look as heavy as possible. This IS
not a difficult task if you are careful to
keep it perfectly clean. In washing the
hair it is not advisable to use a make
shift, but always use a preparation
made for shampooing only. You can
enjoy the best that is known for about
three cents a shampoo by getting a
package of canthrox from your drug
gist: dissolve teaspoonful in a cup of
hot water and your shampoo is ready.
After its use the hair dries rapidly
with uniform color. Dandruff, excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. Your hair will be so fluffy
that it viii look much heavier than Il
is. Its lustre and softness will also de-
light You, while the stimulated scalp
gains the health which insures hair

THE WAR
MEANS TO MUSIC
Louis Lombard Talks on the Outlook
for Music Here and in
Europe.

A world-known patron Of art, virtuoso,
musical composer. Iiterateur. orchestra
conductor fnaDeier and statesman, Louis
Lombard, OF Trevan Castle, Switzerland,
is, as he expresses 1t, making his home
in Washington as an Arab pitches his
tent" That is the way he expresses his
sudden removal from his home in Swift
zerland with the outbreak of the Euro
pean war As one of the highest au-
thorities in Washington on matters mu-
sical the representative Of the Woman's s
Herald asked him for his opinion on the
possibilities for opera in America this
winter.
ITO see what effect the great war will
have, in its fullness at this early stage is
difficult,'' said Mr.. Lombard, "yet We
may already foresee some OF the conse-
quences OF this universal calamity.
Regardless of the optimistic reports
now in circulation I regret to say that
believe that our musical season will be
bad financially and that in Europe many
musicians will feel the pangs of hunger.
"A few among the numerous depress-
ing facts are already public property.
Even in neutral European countries,
the majority of opera houses and thea
ters are closed. Among belligerents
musical life is almost dead. The Bay
reuth season was given up. The Philhar-
monic concerts under Nikish will not
take place. Important music journals
have suspended publication. Music pub
fishing is paralyzed. Toscaninrs tour in
Russia, Carusos in Germany. and other
enterprises in France and England were
abandoned.
This winter there is to be no per-
manent opera in Boston. Chicago. New
Orleans" said Mr. Lombard. IN other
places the opera season may be short
ened; some other large musical under
takings, too, will probably be given up
or postponed. Military, dance, and
church music, also music teaching may
not seriously feel the retrenchments our
people must make as the war continues,
but concert and operatic artists will have
smaller incomes-if any. There is to be
no expectation OF pupils; that may COM
pensate for the importation Of teachers
New compositions will become rarer
in Europe. Young composers being at
the front and aged ones finding little
inspiration save for war songs and
elegies. may leave more eIbow-room for
the neglected American composer.
TT is difficult to believe any good can
accrue from this maelstrom Of blood and
fire, yet sometimes dream that all arts
shall gain from that unfathomable des-
pair. When peace returns, the collective
human soul having been intensely stirred
to its depths by Internal tortures shall
speak to the world a new and super
human message-a message inspired by
the anguish, the agony, the pity, the
piety that go to make the great poet"

November 24-Graee Darling, Mary
Walker, Frances Burnett.

Today is the ninety-ninth anniversary
OF the birth Of the English heroine, Grace
Darling. The story Of how the lighthouse
keepers daughter who went out with
her father when the Forfarshire steam
boat was wrecked and with him braved
tho perils Of the storm to rescue four
men and one woman is well known to
every one.
Hundreds Of other women Of England
had done deeds cutie as heroic and
DfaVe' but for some reason the story Of
Grace Darling appealed to English men
ana women, and before many days had
passed Grace Darling's name was on the
UP OF every Englishman's tongue. So
many requests came for locks OF Grace
Darhngs hair that she said she was in
danger OF becoming bald. Battys circus
the Barnum's of England in those days
-onered her a fine salary II she would
JOIN their troup, and one theatrical man.
ager went so far as TO advertise her ap-
pearance on the stage. The old light
house keeper himself complained to a
local paper that seven times in twelve
days he and his daughter had to pose
Tor photographers and that this inter-
tered with the duties they had to perform
IN the lighthouse.
One Of the most remarkable things
about Grace Darling was that she never
ofS''SN bg Sne re-
celNed. She continued to lead the quiet
secluded life she was accustomed to in
the lighthouse until her death when she
was twenty-seven.
Dr Mary Walker was born November
a. lsS2, in Oswego, n. Y. She wes
descendant Of New England Puritans and
relative OF James whitcomb Riley and
Col Robert Ingersoll. She began her
career as school teacher. was married
young, and after that studied medicine,
Delng graduated when she was twenty
three from the medical college in her
native town.
Dr. Walker is perhaps best known for
her activity in dress reform for women.
she herself went 30 far as to adopt full
male attire. In the civil war she vol
unteered her services to the cause of
the Union and was the ffst woman to
hold the position Of assistant army sur
geon. She made the claim to being the
first woman in this country to attempt
to vote.
