in the United States and the sur

preventable with timely, intelligent
treatment.
These appalling facts should warn
us that after sickness, colds, over
work or any other drains upon
strength, SCOTS Emulsion should
be promptly and regularly used be-
cause tubercular gerr i've only
in weakened syste
The tested and pl,. n value of
SCOTS Emulsion is recognized by
the greatest specialists because its
medical nourishment assilnilates
quickly to build healthy tissue;
aids i'll the development of active,
DEMONSTRATING blood corpuscles;
strengthens the lungs and builds
physical force without reaction.
SCOTS Emulsion is used in tuber-

bodybuilding, blood making prop
critics and because it contains no
alcohol or habit-forming drug.
Be sure to insist on SCOTS.

JOE SHUCRUE A WINNER
ON POINTS over White
ii
New York Boxer s Jabbing and Goodness
Earn Him Victory Over Fast Chi
cago Boy-White Had Two Rounds
to His Credit 4,

New York, Dec 3O.-Youug Shu-
grue, of this city, won on points from
Charile White, of Chicago, in a 10
round bout at the Madison Square Gar.
den here last night. With the excep-
ton of the first round, which was a
draw, and the eighth and last stanzas,
winch went to White, Shugrue was the
aggressor and landed telling blows
Nmte towards the end of the fight
fought with desperation. Outclassed
during the early rounds, the Chicago
boxer made rally in the closing min
utes of the battle, but Shugrue, with
the fight carefully slowed in his favor,
sidestepped his wild bull-like rushes and
came to no harm.
During the first round both boxers
felt the other out. A few labs, fake at
tempts at swings and clinches were all
the bout was fruitful of. Then Shu-
grue started IN tie second fracas. The
speedy Joe shot lightling-like left .iabs
to the uncovered face of White. The
latter WINGED at the rapid stinging
blows. White retaliated with slashing
rights to the body. The local boy kept
constantly shooting in little taps to
White that angered the Chicagoan. 1t
was Shugrue who led all the way in
this round. The third stanza was but
a repetition of the second. Shugrue
kept jabbing, his opponent sidestepping
his swings, which only cleaved the air,
and again retired to his corner leading
in the fight. And so the fight continued
until the eighth round, when White sur
prised the spectators by his game rally
Springing from his corner like a IT,
ger, Whitep ounced upon Shugrue. His
whirlwind rights shook the New York
boxers frame; his left jabs rocked
Shugrue s head He tried to produce
"haymaker, but Shugrue was calm
and again sidestepped the wild, frantic
rushes. This round was undoubtedly
White s. Shugrue held the Windy City
boy at his distance in the ninth. The
last round proved Shugrue complete
master of the situation, although White
was the leader. The fight was Shu
grue's. He fought harder, displayed
better judgment and proved cool and
collected under the most trying circum-
stances

GIANTS AFTER FARM
May Purchase Syracuse Club to Train
Players

The New York Giants may purchase
one of the International League clubs
Tor farming-out purposes, in order to
save its large lists of young players
who otherwise would have to be turned
loose upon some minor league organiza-
tion when the season begins in the ma.
jor bodies.
Several of the major league clubs
nave this idea in mind, and that was
the reason that Manager Higgins, of
st. Louis, and Manager Herzog, of Gin
clnnati, put in bids for the Buffalo club
of the International League. The new
rule restricting clubs to 81 men means
that they will have to turn several
players loose who are really good
enough to be grabbed up by the Glass
AA clubs, which includes the Interna
tonal League, the American Associa.
tion and the Pacific Coast Leagues.
Ii the Giants acquire the Syracuse
club 1T is likely that Manager McGraw
Will see that George Wiltse, who has
been Internationally released, will get
