SAN DIEGO MAKING BISBEElTES MONEY
 SAYS GUS HICKEY

Gus Hickey. we'll known merchant, supervisor and politician. under whose capable chaperonage John Angius and Daddy Walsh recently went out to the coast. returned yesterday from San Diego. He said that he saw Walsh safely domiciled at Ocean Park and Angius into a berth for San Francisco from San Diego, and that reports he had been receiving regularly from them indicated that they were getting along in good shape
 The chairman of the board of su- pervisors spent the greater part of his time in San Diego and at Coron- ado beach. In consequence he re- turned to Bisbee with a heap of boast for the southern seaport and its fa- nous island resort The latter, he says. is without exception the finest and most popular beach resort on the entire coast and is having a season of great crowds
 MT Hickey invested to considerable extent with other Bisbeeites in San Diego real estate last year upon the recommendation of George Buxton, who is now located in San Diego and l leading the procession in the real es- tate business there Other investors here will be pleased to hear that Hic- key found much growth and constant 1 ly increasing values in the sections of San Diego where Buxton suggested l investment Improvements that have
 come about with gain in values have l already made much money for the | Bisbee investors Hickey considers
 that San Diego without exception
 offers the best realty opportunities of l the Pacific coast localities He says
 fine progress is being made with con ] struction of buildings and that there will be a great exposition show at San l Diego next year, it now being certain
 that the best expectations entertained
 when the enterprise was started will ! be exceeded.

sJOE' MANDOT
Said to Be Coming Back With a Vengeance His Bout With
 Dundee.

z
 Tom Walsh the irrepressible manaf ger of Joe Mandot thinks the South- efn champion has come back for keeps and will. soon be battling for the light weight championship of the world Tom is back from New Orleans, where N1andot fought Johnny Dundee, and Joe had the best of the contest. Walsh claims he is 50 per cent better noyy than when he fought MattX McCue, of Racine, early last spring. He. claims that Joe nearly stopped Dun dee in the eighth round and that he. was stronger at the finish. They have finally gotten the 207found game going down there and think that Rivers and Mandot. will stare the ball rolling for Dominick Tortorich about the middle of Septemb err, remarked Tommy Walsh on his return here. If Joe wins from Rivers" continued Tommy We will try and get Willie Ritchie for him and then it will be Walsh for the winner. You know that New Orleans promises to be the real place for the big bouts from now on and think that they will out-shines California or any other place in the country. Of course. will have fd take my hat off to Milwaukee, for there is no city that know of where they have turned out a. $40.O00 house for a ten round bout and until they ido,aawe will give the honors to the beer city. However. the game looks pretty good in New Orleans and think that is where all the big fights of the fu- ture will take place.

John T. Meyers, the famous Indian catcher of the New York Giants. is a native son of the Golden West, having been born in Riverside, Gal, tiairtyz two years ago today It was while a school boy in his native town that John Tortes, who is a full Iblooded American learned to. play ball. The duslxy son of Swat broke up so many high school games that he was asked. to come to Fresno and play on a Sat urday aftepn oonaAnd Sunday team and earn his spending money by working in the raisin factory. Since then the "Chfef'' has been a most versatile zredskin. He has been a printer, an Interpreter for the Government an oiler in a factory a time-sheet keeper, an author, an actor and a big league catcher. His ambition is to save enough .'r money to buy a cattle ranch in Southern California. On a ranch he says T can drop the troubles and worries of the white race and live happy for the rest of my days. It's the only life"
 Meyers is a graduate of old Dart mouth College where he took a great interest in his studies. and he1 passed his examinations with clean sheet After a year or so. however. he again got the call to the wild He was rest ing for the summer when he got a letter asking him to join the Harris burgh professional team in the Tri- State League, which was then an out! law organization. There he had to sit on the bench a, long time, but he finally got a chance and led the league in hitting.
 His next appearance was in the West He played in the Northwest league for a. season with the Butte team, and his ability to get home runs led to his being drafted by St. Paul in the American association. He serv- ed there and improved until McGraw got hold of him.
