Billy Gastreich showed his admir-
ers something when he knocked
Young Fitzgerald out in the third
round of a private bout. Gastreich
used a straight right for the closing
clout.
The South Slider took the lead at
the start of the fight and Fitzgerald
never had a chance. If the youngster
continues to advance there will be
better bouts open to him in short
time. The only danger is that his
hackers, encouraged by his showing,
may pick men of too much class right
at the start. Many good fighters have
been spoiled by poor matchmaking.
Chuck Anderson, a 11s-pound

Bravery of the Relaians.

When Caesar in his Commentaries"
pronounced the Belgae the bravest of
all the Gauls he was merely according

on many a battlefield and which they

million of them in the year 81 B. c..

tribes, headed by the Nervii, madeSa
last stand on the Sambre, taking the
offensive against the Roman legions
and very nearly defeating them by the
intensity of their onslaught. But the
training and discipline of Rome saved
Caesar, and the final result of the he
roic resistance of the Nervii was their
practical humiliation. Their peace

REVELATION WAS TOO MUCH
Picture Of "Hollerlns Jones" at Fa-
Vorite Diversion Caused Him
to Reform.

A well-known illustrator, who makes
interesting western pictures, once
made the acquaintance of noisy but
good-humored cowboy who rejoiced in
the appellation of "Hollering Jones'"
In physical appearance this man was
typical of his kind, and the artist made
several studies Of him, both in re-
pose and in his favorite diversion of
"hollering." Some of the studies were
sold by the artist to an eastern maya
zine. They showed Jones in his most
violent state.
A year later the artist again visited
the region. He was soon approached
by Mr.. Jones himself, bearing one Of
the pictures, which he had torn from
the magazine in which 1t was printed.
Pointing to 1t, he asked:
is that me?"
WELL" replied the artist evasively,

"Oh, / amt takin' no offense." Jones
made haste to say. TITS all right; only
