Hurdles and javelin Throw

New York, Aug. An view of the

That's six years ago.

BOXING MECCA
Ring Sport Will Boom in S. This
Year Authorities Say

New York. Aug. 4-Although many
Of Americas crack boxers have been
lured away by the boom that has come
to England, France and Australia, their
absence is not likely to become perma-
nent. In all probability the fall season
will ind the wanderers back again.
There is every indication that inter
est in boxing in America will be reviV-
ed this winter. The fact that the cher
ished lightweight title has gone abroad
will awaken fresh interest in the con
tenders here Such boxers as Charley
White, Johnny Dundee, Young Shugrue
and others OF the same caliber, Will be
watched more closely in the future,
since from their ranks must come the
man who will bring the title back.
The fact that twenty round bouts
can now be held in both Colorado and
Louisiana. owing to the passing of IA
vorable laws, indicates that there will
be no dearth of battle grounds where
real championship fights can he decid-
ed.

LEADING EVENTS IN THE WORLD OF SPORT

lied for the purpose of putting on |
battles that will again |
attract the sporting element from all
over the, world.
Many Of the most famous battles in
the history OF the prize ring were stag
ed in New orleans. 1t was there that
Fitzsimmons knocked out Jim Hall
The men fought before a great crowd
for a purse OF $4,000. but when it came
time to pay off all Fdtz could collect
was $4,000 Another famous battle
there was the FitzsimmonsM aher con-
test In the second round of that bat
tie Maher swung a mighty right ana
knocked the Cornishman cold, At TINS
iuncture occurred one of those strange
happenings SO frequent in those days,
but now fortunately thing OF the
past.
Wss Former Mecca for Boxers.
Joe Choynski was Fits chief second.
One glance at his principals stiffenin8
form told him that the battle was lost
unless something could be done to give
him "A respite. and IT did not take him a
moment to think out a scheme and put
the same into execution. Grasping the
leg OF the stool he carried he wrenched
| il out and, reaching over the timekeep-
ers shoulder, struck the bell. AT once
| the referee, thinking the round had
ended, stopped counting and F'itz was
lugged to his corner and revived. Be
fore the trick was discovered in the
confusion Fitz had partly recovered
and he managed To evade Makers as
saults until his head cleared. Fitz
| thereafter took no chances with his
hard hitting foe. He jabbed Maher
with a long left until the latter's eyes
were closed, and in the twelfth round
he quit cold.
1t was at New orleans that the big
three day tournament was held in
which Jack Skelly was defeated by
! George Dixon for the featherweisht
title. Jack McAuliffe the lightweight
champion. knocked out Billy Meyer
and Jim Corbett put an end to John L.
Sullivans long reign by beating him
into state of collapse in twenty-one
rounds.

BENEFIT OF CANAL
WITH CONGRESS
TO FIX
INTERESTING FACTS CONNECTED
WITH THE PAST AND Fu-
TURE OF BIG DITCH.

Washington, March 14.-Lieutenan1
Colonel William NJ. Sibert, u. S. A.
the builder of the Gatun locks, the
Gatun dam, the breakWater at Colon
harbor and the excavation of the
channel between the Gatun locks and
the Atlantic ocean, has written an in
teresting article on the Panama canal,
his first contribution on the subject,
for the National Geographic society
at Washington, d. G. In his article,
Colonel Sibert asks this significant
question::
Now that the canal is essentially
finished, what are the American peo-
pie going to do with it? Shall the
new markets brought into existence
on the Pacific shores of Central and
South America by this new cheap
transportation route be supplied by
the United States or by foreign coun-
tries? In my judgment, that depends,
more than anything else, upon wheth-
er the congress of the United States
enaets such laws as will bring into
existence a United States merchant
marina engaged in foreign commerce" !"
II there are any people who yet hold
The idea that the waters of the At
lantic and Pacific will mingle in the
canal. Colonel Sibert dispels that idea
with the two statements that for
about 81 miles the canal is s5 feet
above the level of the oceans and that
water will not flow uphill"

could" That set us to thinking. Su
many people have used them and
have so enthusiastically sounded their
praises both to us and their frien u,
that we had an idea you all knew
about them. But. in the chance that
some OF you who suffer from indiges-
tion, heartburn, dyspepsia, or some
other stomach complaint, don't know
about them-we are writing this.
They contain Bismuth and Pepsin,
two of the greatest digestive aids
known to medical science. They
soothe and comfort the stomach, pro-
help to quickly digest the food and
convert it into rich. red blood. and
improve the action of the bowels. We
believe them to be the best remedy
made for indigestion and dyspepsia.
We certainly wouldn't offer them to
you entirely at our risk unless we
felt sure they would do you a lot of
good. II Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets do

In case a ship should break the

should start to flow through the

caution that has never been taken be-
