BOXING WITH FEET POPULAR
Attempts to Introduce French Style
of Exercise Into This Country
Never Was Successful.

The form of boxing known as ia
savate," in which the feet are used
as we'll as the fists, and kicks are
as legitimate as blows, has for a long
time been a popular exercise in
French gymnasiums and schools Of
arms. In this country it is practically
unknown, although attempt has been
made at various times to introduce it
here.
The first principle is that the
whole weight of the body shall be
placed on one leg, and that the far
thest from the adversary, says Wash
ington Star. The disengaged leg is
used as an adjunct to the fists, and
flies out with astonishing swiftness
and accuracy of aim.
The coup de savate" proper is the
"chasse" off the right foot, or shin
hit" dangerous blow, but one that
is easily avoided by raising the left
knee to the level of the waist For
midable as this method of assault and
others, such as the coup d'arret," or
straight stop hit, and the coup de
figure" or swinging face, kick, may be,
and undoubtedly are with an expert,
the parties and guards are simple and
sure If properly used.

Gunboat Smith was dropped twice

Carpenter, the wonderful French

Gloria were his conqueror,.
Abe Attell suffered two knockouts
before he became champion. Benny
Yanger accomplished the feat in ten

Tommy Sullivan did it in FIVE rounds
in 1904.
Joe Cans was knocked cold by
George (Elbows) McFadden before he
owned any title. Cans hit the canvas
in the twenty-third round.

BUSINESS IN CANADA
IS GOOD
Successful Crops and Big Yields
Help the Railway.

The remarkable fields that are re-
ported Of the wheat crop of Western
Canada for 1915 bear out the esti-
mate of an average yield over the
three western provinces of upward of
25 bushels per acre. There is no
portion of that great west of $4,000
square miles in which the crop was
not good and the yields abundant. An
American farmer who was induced to
place under cultivation land that he
had been holding for five years for
speculative purposes and higher
prices, says that he made the price of
the land out of this years crop of
oats. No doubt, others, too, who took
the advice of the Department Of the
Interior to cultivate the unoccupied
land, have done as well.
But the story of the great crop that
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta
produced this year is best told in the
language of the railways in the added
cars that it has been necessary to
place in commission, the extra trains
required to be run, the increased ton
mage of the grain steamers.
1t is found that railway earnings
continue to improve.
The c. P. R. earnings for the second
week of October showed an increase
of $762,000 over last year, the total
being only $4,000 below the gross
earnings of the corresponding week
of 1913, when the Western wheat crop
made a new record for that date. The
increase in c. P. r. earnings for the
corresponding week of that year was
only 1851, 1000, or less than half of the
increase reported this year. The
grain movement in the West within
the past two weeks has taxed the re-
sources of the Canadian roads as
never before, despite their increased
facilities. The G. p R. is handling 1000
cars per day, a new record. The
G. T. R. and the G. N. R. are also max
ing new shipment records. The other
day the W. Grant Morden, of the Can
ada Steamships Company, the largest
freighter of the Canadian fleet on the
Upper Lakes, brought down cargo of
476,315 bushels, a new record for
Canadian shipping. Records are go
ing by the board" in all directions this
fall, due to Canada's record crop. The
largest Canadian wheat movement
through the port of New York ever
known is reported for the period up
to October 18th, when since shipments
of the new crop began in August,
4,265,791 bushels have been reloaded
for England, France and Italy. This
is over half as much as was shipped
of American wheat from the same port
in the same period. And, be it remem-
bered, Montreal, not New York, is the
main export gateway for Canadian
wheat New York gets the overflow
In competition with Montreal.-Ad-
vertisement.

TUNGSTEN BREAKS UP GAME
Catcher Fails to Tag Base Runner
Who PIows Up Precious Metal
in Slide to Plate.

The greatest home run ever made
on California diamond was pulled
off in game at Johannesburg, accord
ing to a story sent from Los Angeles
and told by Judge Parker, former sec
rotary OF the Los Angeles Coast league
club, who had been visiting the johann
nesburg mining district.
There is considerable excitement
around johannesburg and Randsburg
over the discovery of tungsten" said
Parker. 1T is being found in large
quantities and everyone is as much ex-
cited over it as they would be over
gold rush.
81 heard there would be ball game
at Johannesburg, so motored over to
the grounds.
1T was a pretty fair contest, al
though the players pulled lot of bush
stuff.
"A big husky came to bat and he
hit the ball over the fielder's head for
a home run. The outfielder was fast
and he relayed the ball home in time
to force the runner to slide.
The runner hit the ground like a
ton of brick, kicking up dirt on all sides
of the plate. The catcher was ready
to tag him out, but as he looked down
he let out a big yell.
"All the players and a number of
spectators crowded around the plate
l edged my way through the crowd
and found that the player had exposed
tungsten, which looks something like
chalk. AS it is worth $1,000 ton, the
game was broken up"

Kirby Wins Own Match.

Oswald Kirby, former Metropolitan
champion, and Maxwell r. Marston,
New Jersey titleholder, defeated Je-
rome D. Travers, national open cham
pion, and Archibald Graham of the
home club, in a four-ball match, over
the links of the Arcola Country club,
in New York. The margin was up
and to play. Kirby practically won
his own match. He played in the
finest fettle and incidentally equaled
the amateur record of the course on
his afternoon round with 70. His gait
may be imagined when it is said that
he was lees than par figures on the
last ten holes.

THRIVE ON EARLY KNOCKOUTS
Shown by Records That Defeat Is
Test All Successful Fighters
Must Undergo at Start.

Upsets at the outset don't count.
This is as true in the ring as it is in
life. A youngster hopeful of becoming
a champion shouldn't despair if he
meets with knockout. 1t is surpris-
ing the number of champions and top
notchers who have tasted that bitter
form of defeat at the outset of their
ring careers. A glance at the records
would seem to prove that a knockout
is a test that all successful fighters
must undergo.

SALADS TOO LITTLE USED
Really They Should Be Given Very
Prominent Place in Meals Served
to the Family.

Salads are capable of infinite va
riety, so when fish and cheese fail
vegetables which approach animal
foods in nutrition may be served, and
either the oil in the dressing or the
fat in the cream or melted butter of
a boiled dressing be depended upon
to supply the necessary oil. Try a
corn salad. A pound of this vege-
table contains as much protein as is
found in half pound of lamb chops
or half a dozen eggs. Cool freshly
boiled corn, also some rice (dried in
the oven until the grains separately,
salt slightly and mix them in equal
quantities; fold in some stiff mayon-
naise and serve very cold in lettuce
cups Beans, peas and lentils, which
are all so rich in protein, are very
desirable for salads in place of meat.
Cover two cups of cold baked beans
with French dressing and let stand
a half hour; drain, sprinkle with half
a teaspoonful of onion juice, mix with
cream dressing, arrange on lettuce
leaves and garnish with parsley and
hard-cooked eggs. Lentils combined
with onions, peppers and parsley, and
served on cress with French dressing,
make hearty and tasty salad.
A fruit salad has the added adj
vantage of being very healthful, for
nearly all fruits hold acids and salts
in solution which are cooling to the
Hood %boro On Tnonu fruifc
available that none needs to become
tiresome. Pears, as a salad possibility
once tried, will appear often this way:
Peel large pears, halve them, remove
the cores and drop them into cold wa
ter in which is tablespoonful of vine
gar to keep them white. Fill the core
cavity with either grated cheese or
cream cheese balls and serve on let
tuce with French dressing. Purple
egg plums may be used instead of
pears, with lemon juice substituted for
vinegar in the dressing. The stone
cavity of peaches filled with chopped
nuts and arranged on lettuce with
mayonnaise is very tasty. A pretty
salad can be made from watermelon or
cantaloupe by scooping out with large
spoon pieces from the ripest parts,
draining, chilling and serving in let
tuce cups with French dressing. When
mayonnaise is used with fruits, leave
out the mustard and pepper, put in
little sugar and use lemon instead of
vinegar always. In no case should
boiled actd dressing be used with fruit
salad.

Oriuin of Football.

The origin Of football, in common
with all other sports, goes back great
distance. Football, while not quite
dating back to the time of Adam, is
very old game, according to Joel A.
Goldthwait, Harvard undergraduate
statistician. Writing in the Harvard
Illustrated, Goldthwait says: THE
Spartans engaged in game called
harpaston during the intervals be-
tween battles. The object was the ia
miliar one of getting the ball across
the goal by any means. Two English
kings, Edward II and Henry VI, for
babe football because the people de-
serted archery for football, resulting
in bad craftsmanship"

with kerosene. Work briskly for
some minutes, so that the kerosene
may do it's work of loosening all the
old oil and CRIME, and then wipe care

When the kerosene has been re-
moved, oil the machine again with
lubricating machine oil, and it will
then work perfectly. Be sure and use
the lubricant oil after using the kero-
sene.

MEL SHEPPARD QUITS

in TWO Oiympics.

There is a genuine sorrow over the
news that little Mel Sheppard will
perhaps never race again. The in
jury he sustained in his knee in Madi-
son Square garden is serious enough
to rob him forever of his great speed.
Up to a year ago he was the king
Of the middle-distance runners, and
really one of the worlds greatest ath-
letes. At the time of the injury Shep-
pard was trailing his field, as he al
ways does before his wonderful spurts.
Just as he got going great guns he
caught his foot in a loose board and
was thrown.
His knee and arm were badly in
jured, and the physician who attend
ed him gave it as his opinion that
the matchless Mel was through for
ever.

yet he vanquished the best milers in
the world at 1,500. In both of these
events he broke Olympic records.
Sheppard was born at Almonesson
Lake, N. j., in 1883. He gained fame
as a football player before he took up
running. In 1906 he joined the Irish
American A. A., and in his very first
race he defeated those wonders, Jim
Sullivan and Harvey Cohn. From that
time on he was the bright particular
star of the organization.

Cousin lake Interested.

Out of worlds series come
many good tales that are not
narrated until after years. A
Pittsburgh scribe had an up
country cousin as his press-box
guest in the Pirate-Detroit
opener in 1909. Cousin Jake
was deeply interested in the
view of Schenley park. When
Fred Clarke hit the homer that
tied the game, Cousin Jake,
above the wild cheers of $4,000
fans, shouted into his hosts
ear:
ooh, look at that long train
of cars in Schenley park. See
them going around the curve!"
The scribe paid no heed but
scrubbed and the multitudes
cheered. Shaking his host by
the elbow of his writing arm,
the boob yelled:
Three engines on it! I'm
just going to count those cars"
"All right, you lobster, count
'em quietly" cried the irate
scribe in desperation. land /
