SUBSTIT Ute
referee FOR
PALzER BOUT.

AL Palzer, the big Iowa Roy
who boxes Joe Bonds of Tacoma
before the Moose Athletic club
Thanksgiving night. is now regis
tering from Seattle, and the
match is taking on the nature Of
an inter-city event. Palzer Is
training at Seattle and has been
accorded much publicity In that
city. AS result, 1t Is expected
that several hundred Seattle fans
will come to Tacoma next week
to root for him.
A novelty of the Thursday bout
will be the fact that the Moose
will have g substitute referee on
hand, in case anything should
happen to Lee Croft. The substi-
tute will remain outside the ropes
ready to jump in IL there should
be any emergency demanding his
presence In the ring.
The only other match on record
where substitute referee was
used was the Jack Johnson-Jim
Jeffries match at Reno, Nevada,
where Tex Richard acted as third
man In the ring. and a substitute
stood on watch outside the ropes.
When big men box, the referee
is liable to be struck and injured,
and for that reason the Moose
thought 1t advisable to have an
emergency referee. He has not
been appointed as yet.

set forth to get that Stool money.
1t was past noon before he started
for the track. He and his men
stood to win something like $780,
600 on the race by double cross
ing the crooks. The street car
broke down. 1t crept forward
and broke down again. The time
for starting the race was near.
The trainer jumped from the car
and ran for the track. He reached
1t, exhausted and painting. just as
the gun was fired and the seven
racers leaped out for the fivc-mile
hlppodrome. There was no time
to fix them. The trainer, sprint
ing hard, ran up the infield to the
back turn of the field. The first
time the racers passed he made
trumpet of his hands and shout
ed: Don't win. Don't win. Make
win" The racers whiz-
zed by as IL unhearing. The
fourth time they came whirlins
down In a compact mass. The
trainer was leaning over the
fence. He screamed:
you've got to win, -
naming the man he had chosen.

The racer, then in fifth posi-
ton, nodded his head and leaped
to the sprint. In fifty yards he
was racing at his best gait and

BY Hugh 8. Fullerton.

This is the story of double,
triple, perhaps a quadruple cross
and of a bicycle race upon which
perhaps 100000 was wagered.
It will not do now to tell the
names of those involved in this
complicated scheme to rob the
public and of the efforts of two
distinct sets of crooks to rob each
other. This is because one of the
men is one Of the greatest figures
in the athletic world, and another
scarcely less prominent in another
line.
Their process was simple. The
public wagered on the racers, and
the one least heavily backed won,
unless the amateurs" and their
hackers saw a chance to bet a
large sum.
The five were to start against
each other in a five-mile race at
Buffalo, and two other amateurs
were in it. Having been beaten

where, they took the other anna
teurs" into the scheme and fixed
the Buffalo race.
The amateurs Clipped in their
money, the trained added to IL,
they selected a winner to beat the
two favorites and rested easily.
The morning of the race The
trainer set forth to bet the money.
He made a few bets on his man
and suddenly discovered that all
the people who had big" money
were wanting to bet the same
way. The situation puzzled him
He was afraid the plot had been
discovered and exposed, but soon
found that 1t was not.
The truth was the big plotters
had been tipped by one of the
outside amateurs and had doue
some fixing themselves. The
trainer discovered he could not
get much money bet on his man,
20 decided to switch. This was
before he found that the big
money" interests also were plot
ting. He knew 1t made no differ
ence to the amateurs which one
won. He was offered 2 to 1
against one of them, 4 to /
against another, to 1 against
auother--all three of whom he
knew were faster than the fellow
on whose chances they offered
even money against the field.
He quickly produced the entire
bank roll. went to the quarters

past them. The three leaders,
sprinting tire to tire intent on
making it a spectacular finish,
saw the other man shoot to the
front. They imagined that he
was double crossing them; that
some trick had been played, and
they. too, leaped to the sprint.
The spectators witnessed what
perhaps was the most desperate
bicycle race ever ridden. Inch by
inch the three pursuers bore
down upon the flying leader. H.

sprinting. He could not see who
was winning. The. four leaders
flashed under the wire almost tire
lengths apart, with the trainers

inches.
