LITTLE STORIES OF

A little FOUNDER cannon, 4

dreadnoughts. started the fuss
which ended in TeXas declaring its
Independence from Mexico.
Historians imagine that the good
people of Gonzales Texas, back in
1891, were mighty proud OF this lit
tie cannon intended for defense
against the indians Ii was highly
priced. Santa Anna made the mis-
take of starting At Gonzales to dis
arm the people Of Texas in accord
ance with the Generals self-made
changes in the Mexican constitution,
Perhaps the only thing the people of
Gonzales priced more highly than
the cannon was their liberties under
the old constitution. They decided
to keep both liberties and cannon.
The news that Gonzales would dis
pute the demands of Santa Anna $
dragons spread like wi!dfre through
Texas. While the Gonzales volun-
teers parleyed for delay, reinforce
ments arrived Then, quietly under
cover OF heavy fog, Col. John II.
Moore led his volunteer force across
the river ana on the morning OF

Kilbane Fights Mandot Tonight
Welsh Wants Mcfarland 4


paign for work in the lightweight di-
vision. Employment is not plentiful
in the featherweight class and the
champion is also gathering poundage
at rate which will soon lift him be-
yond the limit.
In Joe Mandot he meets a tough |
customer, and Akron, O., should be
the theater for some expert and
rough milling. Mandot is one of the
lighter men in the 133-pound class |
and will be in the neighborhood of |
100 pounds when he climbs through |
the ropes.
Mandot carries healthy WalIop in
both his right and left, the latter be-
ing his best mitt. Kilbane, on the |
other hand, is wondrOusly clever and |
is q difficult man to land on. He,
too, has a punch that is not to be |
despised, as some fellows in the
featherweight division can testify.
An effort is being made to match
Packey Mcfarland for ten-round
contest against Lightweight Cham
pion Freddie Welsh in New York
sometime after the Christmas holi-
days. A representative Of a New
York club is in town with the papers.
The idea is to have Mcfarland
make 1876 pounds at 8 O'Clock the day
of the fight. If the stockyards boy
agrees the articles will be signed.
Whether Mcfarland could cope with
Welsh while moving around the ring
on one leg and a crutch is doubtful.
Removing some Of his anatomy is
about the only way he could make
the weight, according to the dope.
Mike Gibbons and Jimmy CIabby
will hardly fight in New York. Clab-
by asked too much money, but Mil
waukee promoters. are angling for
the bill, believing the two middles
would draw well in this vicinity,
where each is well known and liked.

BASEBALL SPORTS OF ALL SORTS BOXING
National League Magnates Meet in
New York.

National league maSnaCeS are
gathering in New York for the meet
ing of the league tomorrow. A con-
ference of the national commission
today will serve as a curtain raiser,
and Garry Hermann, chairman of
baseballs governing body, admitted
that the recent activities of the Fed
erals might" be discussed when he
gets together with Ban Johnson and
John Tener.
We miss our guess If the Fed
raids aren't about the only topic of
discussion. The organized owners
are upset at the forays of the third
leaguers after they had been once
more labeled as dead by Ban John
son.
Signing four pitchers in four days
last week gave the Feds big boost.
1t was notice to the organized pow
ers that the Feds were not whipped
and weren't even fighting on the de-
fensive. 1t was an ultimatum that if
peace was to be had the Feds would
not be in the position of suppIicants
and would demand honorable terms
for every magnate, player, umpire
and bat boy affiliated with the circle.
A court fight over one or all of the
men is probable. 1t is a cinch the
law sharks will do some picking in
one or two of the cases. New York
is not going to give up claims to
RUDE Marquard without a struggle,
and Washington has served notice
that it will make strenuous efforts
to retain Walter Johnson, even
though Clark Griffith and some Of
the executives of the Nationals have
given it out that Walter has lost his
usefulness to that team.
Griffith apparently has little hope
of regaining the blond 42-centimeter.
Certainly Johnson would not work
