BOXING ALL THE. LATEST DOPE BASEBALL

Kilbane In Slow Fight Secures the
Decision BY Shade.
The reason is now plain why John
ny Kilbane, featherweight champion,
wanted no decision in his fight with
Gene belmont at Memphis last night.
For eight rounds the two little men
worried along and at the end neither
had a red spot where hard blow
had landed.
On pure cleVerness and flashy work
Kilbane had the edge, and he might
have been given a decision without
question. But evidently the title hold
er was leaving nothing to chance. In
only two of the eight rounds did he
extend himself enough to give the go
the semblance Of contest.
In the other rounds belmont did his
poor best to clash at. close qarters
with the Clevelander, but Kilbane,
with superior cleVerness, easily ward
ed off the attacks and remained on
the defensive He was roundly Kissed
by the spectators, but cared not, as
he was dragging down the coin just
the same.
Matty Mccue and Joe Mandot are
in a tangle over their scheduled Ra-
cine fight and the battle may be call
ed off entirely. McCue and the pro-
moters want the bout pulled off April
81, and Mandot is demanding that
April Is, the second date fixed on, be
adhered to.
p Mandot has a fight partially ar
ranged with Johnny Dundee in New
York April %, and cannot make the
two battles.
Kid Williams, bantanWeight heir
apparent, ran into a tough boy in a |
colored person named Louisiana at |
Philadelphia last night and had to |
rally desperately to get a six-round |
decision. The Baltimorean loafed |
through the early rounds and had to |

Thomas Asks. Waivers on Six Cubs
Feds Change Quarters.

ITSSlu0uI luOQldS OF the CuDS Is
responsible for the information that
waivers have been asked on six of the
men now sporting Cub uniforms. The
new executive by league rule is I'M
able to give out the names of the
gents slated for departure and would
not even say what positions the play
ers were after.
1t is cinch, however, that all of
the men to depart are recruits. No
breaks will occur in the veteran align
ment, as O'Day is satisfied with the
work of the old-timers and young
men with major league experience.
It is probable that three of the fell
lows to fall are infelders, Heating,
Bronkie and MollWitZ. Heating, a
young shortstop, is too light for
major league company now He is
clever in the fielding end, but has not
the punch and eye to cope with big
league pitching A berth will be found
for him with some strong minorsquad
if the other big league clubs waive on
him.
Bronkie is not a major league play
er, never was and never will be. He is
one of the peculiar fellows who can
star in the minors; but fail absolutely
when in the bright glare of the big
top calcium. Up with Cleveland once
before, he fell, was sent to Toledo,
made good record and was picked
on it's strength. HeNwill certainly go
to Class IA team, and is in demand
by Indianapolis.
MolIwitz IS another proposition.
Only the mastodonic presence of Vic
Safer prevents this boy becoming a
West Side regular. He has all the
qualifications of star, but there is
no place for him. 1t is doubtful
whether some of the other managers
will waive. In that case he stands a
fine chance of being retained, not for
the strength he will lend the C1hc

A HAM AND BACON SHOW.

Why doesn't one of our enterprising
merchants-or group of Chem-organ-
ize county ham and bacon show, to be
held at some convenient place within the
next few weeks? 1t could easily be made
so attractive that it might become an
annual early winter event. There are
many farmers who are curing their own
hams and bacon and these could be in
duced to exhibit. 1t might be possible
to secure the services of demonstration
from the Agricultural College who would
instruct other farmers and their SONS,
wives and daughters in the methods of
home curing. The smoke house, so long
a neglected adjunct to the farm, is COM
ing into its own once more and the
farmers who are overlooking this source
of profit are just bit behind the times.
There is brisk market for home cured
hams and bacon in the larger towns and
in the cities and this market may easily
be cultivated to the great advantage of
the farmer. Let us make this section of
the country famous for its home cured
hams and bacon. The way to start the
thing is to organize an exhibit. offer at
tractive prizes, work up plenty of en-
thusiasm. This paper will do It's share.

con exhibit? -The Fairfield Journal.

and guide the pillow. What 10 to be
come Of that nation where poverty
breaks the crowns of the queens Of
the home; despair hurls mothers
love from it's throne and hunger drives
innocent children from the schoolroom
to the hoe?
The census bureau shows that 1885,.
900 Of these women are forty-hve
years of age and over. There Is no
more pitiful sight in civilization than
these sanity mothers Of Israel stopped
with age, 6rudging in the field from
sun until sun and at night drenching
their dingy pillows with the tears of
despair as their aching hearts take
1t all to God in prayer. Civilization
strikes them a blow when it should
give them a crown, and their only
friend is he who broke bread with
beggars and said: Come unto me all
We that are weary and heavy laden and
I will give you rest"
oh, America! The land Of the free
and the home OF the brave, the
worlds custodian of chivalry, the
champion of human rights and the de-
fender of the oppressed-shall we per-
NIT our maidens fair to be torn from
the hearthstone by the ruthless hand
of destiny and chained to the plow?
Shall we permit our faithful wives,
whom we covenanted with God to cher
ish and protect, to be hurled from the
home to the harvest field, and our
mothers dear to be driven from the old
arm chair to the cotton patch?
In rescuing our citizens from the
forces of civilization can we not apply
to our fair Dixieland the rule of the
sea-"women and children first!"
There must be a readjustment of
the wage scale of industry so that the
women can be taken from the field or
given reasonable wage for her serv-
ices. Perhaps the issue has never been
fairly raised but the Farmers Union,
with a membership Of ten million, puts
it's organized forces squarely behind
the issue and we now enter upon the
docket of civilization the case of THE
Woman in the Field" and demand an
immediate trial

A JUST DECISION.

The freeing of DR.. Berry from the
charge under which he was convicted of
uttering libel upon Judge Haley i'll be
heartily applauded wherever men and
women exist who believe that wicked
injustice prevails in Maine through the
non-enforcement of the prohibitory law
in certain quarters. No man with an
ounce of gray matter in his Uranium, for
a moment doubts that if the legal forces
of the State, beginning with the justices
of the Supreme Court, would unite to
make our liquor laws effective. instead
of exercising their powers of ingenuity
to avoid those laws, Maine would speed
lily become in fact as she is in name q

RAILROADS APPEAL
TO PRESIDENT
The Common Carriers Ask for Re-
lief President Wilson Directs
Attention of Public to


Their NEEDS.
The committee of railroad eXecu-
tives, headed by Mr.. Frank Trumbull,
representing thirty-five of the leading
railroad systems of the nation, recent
ly presented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing the diff
ficulties now confronting the railroads
of the country and asking for the CO.
operation of the governmental authori-
ties and the public in supporting rail-
road credits and recognizing an emer-
gency which requires that the rail
roads be given additional revenues.
The memorandum recites that the
European war has resulted in general
depression of business on the Ameri-
can continent and in the dislocation
of credits at home and abroad. With
revenues decreasing and interest rates
increasing the transportation systems
of the country face a most serious
crisis and the memorandum is
strong presentation of the candle
burning at both ends and the perils
that must ultimately attend such a
confagration when the flames meet
is apparent to all. In their general
discussion the railroad representa-
tlves say in part: BY reason of leg
islation and regulation by the federal
government and the forty-eight states
acting independently of each other, as
wen as through the action of a strong
public opinion, railroad expenses in
recent years have vastly increased.
No criticism is here made of the gen.
eral theory of governmental regula-
ton, but on the other hand, no in
genuity can relieve the carriers of ex-
penses created thereby
President Wilson, in transmitting
the memorandum of the railroad
presidents to the public, character
ICES it as "a lucid statement of plain
truth" The president recognizing
the emergency as extraordinary, con-
tinuing, said in part:
"You ask me to call the attention
of the country to the imperative need
that railway credits be sustained and
the railroads helped in every possible
way, whether by private cooperative
effort or by the action, wherever
feasible of governmental agencies, and
l am glad to do so because l think
the need very real
The conference was certainly
fortunate one for the nation and the
president is to be congratulated for
opening the gate to new world of
effort in which everyone may cooper
ate.
There are many important prob
lens in our complex civilization that
will yield to cooperation which will
not lend themselves to arbitrary rul-
ings of commissions and financing
railroads is one of them. The man
with the money is factor that can
not be eliminated from any business
transaction and the public is an inter-
ested party that should always be con-
suited and happily the president has
invited all to participate in the solu-
tior of our railroad problems.
