jim Corbett and Jim Jeffries tried
to come back after several years alb
sence. So did lot Of others. And
they all got the same thing-au ep-
itaph on their pugiustic tombstone
which gave the Information that HE
HAD been a great fighter in his day.
P0ckey left the ring Weighing
around 1S7 and 1SS-his best fighting
weight, In his two years Of running
b-eweries and automobiles he has
added probably 20 pounds He only
wants 10 of it off. This is going to
leave 10 there that can be said to be
an accumulation of two years Idle
ness. He doesn't need it, and before
he has stepped through thirty min
utes with a man as shifty as Mike
Gibbons is. it is safe bet he's going
to wish he didn't have It,
Veteran ring men can't see Pack
ey's chances at all They base their
assertion that the stockyards wonder
is in for a lacing on the fact that no
boxer ever has come back. and on
the fact that Packey hasn't been box
ing very much in the past two years.
whereas the shadow-like Mike has
been fighting pretty steadily in that
time.
q man can't fight unless he's been
fishting, said an old ring man to-
day. 1T doesn't take two years for
a laan to lose his judgment Of dis
tanoe and his hitting eye when he's
not in the ring Didn't sit in Car
son City and see Bob Fitzsimmons put
the smack on Jim Corbett, simply
because Fftz had been fighting for
two years steadily where Jim had
teen idling? Fitz's condition wasn't
any better than Jim's. but his eyes
were.
again, Packey is going to meet a
man in Mike who is at the zenith OF
his power. The St. Paul lad has been
coming up for six years and he's now
at the top of his career. Packey was
at the top of his when he left the
ring.
Eyes. Wen admit that Packey has
lived a mighty clean life. He hasn't
boozcd, nor smoked, nor any of that
stuff Neither have a lot of other
Young chaps but they couldn't stand
10 rounds of Mike Gibbons game at
that.

FEDERAL LEAGUE
FLOATING HOME OF so
GIRLS is ABANDONED

NEW YORK, Aug. 21,-The old
ship Jacob A. Stamler was due to be
abandoned by the fifty working girls
who have made it their home for
some years. The vessel, moored in
the East River near the foot of 23rd
street is needed for other purposes
by the Arbuckle estate which owns
it.
The girls have a sentimental at
taehment to the ship where they
have lived long and been happy. and
the prospect of moving also means a
serious financial problem. On the
Jacob Stamler, charges for board
have ranged from $3.50 to $3.50. and
the girls say they can't get accommo-
dations elsewhere for that amount,
Some of them earn only "a a week
and none more than 81 or IS. Some
are out Of work.
Fifty-nine years ago the sailing
ship Jacob A. Stamler was one of
the largest passenger vessels plying
between New York and Havre,
France Later, she took cargoes to
and from nearly every large port in
the world John Arbuckle, the coffee
king. purchased her in 1901 and
turned her into travelling hotel,
making nightly trips from the Battery
to Sandy Hook.
In recent years she has been moor
ed at East Twenty-third street and
maintained with the yacht Gitana as
floating dormitory for men, at the
expense of the Arbuckle heirs.
Frank D. Shelley has been skipper,
mate. pilot and forster parent for the
crew of the ship. His wife is call
cd mother" by the girls and really
acts in somewhat that relationship to
/ them.

HARVEST HAIRY vETCH SEED
When Oldest Pods Are Ripe
Use Great Care In Curing.

In harvesting hairy vetch seed Il
should be cut with moving machine
when the oldest pods are fully ripe
The wheels of the power as well as
the horses must not be allowed to
pass over the cut vetch. as otherwise
much of the seed will be shattered
out AS the pods break open readily
when dry, the greatest care should be
taken in curing and handling to avoid
loss of seed. 1t can be threshed with
an ordinary grain thresher by lower
ing the concayes sufficiently to avoid
tracking the seed.
Yields of from three to ten bushels
per acre of hairy vetch seed may be
expected in addition to the rye or
other grain with which it is grown
A complete separation Of the hairy
vetch seed from rye or wheat is best
made by use of spiral separating ma
chine.
