POPCORN WAGON Is
DESTROYED BY FIRE

shortly before o'clock Tuesday AZ
ternoon, the popcorn wagon on Bert
Johnson's corner, operated by Charles
Walch, caught fire from an overflow
of gasoline with which he had just
finished filling the supply tank and
burned down to the wheels before the
blaze could be extinguished.
Fortunately for the old man, the
tank exploded while he was in Bert
.Johnson's drug store getting pail OF
water to throw on the blaze. The
flames shot high in the air and had Mr..
Walch been near the wagon at the
time he would surely have been burn
ed to death. AS it was his hands were
scorched and his hair badly singed.
The wagon, which Mr.. Walch was
paving for on monthly installments,
was not insured, the only thing saved
being about peck of un-popped corn.
Early in the summer, Mr.. Walch secur-
ed permission from the city council
and Mr.. Johnson to operate the pop
corn and peanut wagon on the corner
of west Bell street and Merrill avenue,
and this was his only means Of sup
port.
Immediately after the fire sub
scription list was circulated and nearly
$50 had been raised for the old man
by noon on Wednesday. One of the
local carpenters will be asked to build
temporary cart, and Mr.. Corey. the
owner of the carnival company, has
given Mr.. Walch permission to place
it at the most advantageous point
along the line of exhibits.

 Jess had been guaranteed $750, he says, for his exhibition, but there was not that much money in the house, and when the guarantee was not turned over to him before he entered the ring, he decided not 10 enter it at all.
 The crowd sat through two prelimi- raries, but took but little interest in them.

that Gully consented to the match. For sixty-five rounds Gully fought ferociously, but in the end he was conquered, although he won high praise from the victor.
 Three years later Gully fought Bob Gregson for the championship of Eng land, and won with ease. Having reached the highest pinnacle of pug ilism, Gully retired from the ring, although he was then only twenty five years of age.
 For a brief time the retired and undefeated champion was the boni- face of a popular London pub" but he soon turned his attention to the turf, where he was destined to shine as brightly as he had in the ring. He amassed a fortune as book maker, and invested in coliiery prop critics which became very profitable, and made the ex-bruiser one of the wealthiest men in England. In 1S46 he won the Derby with Pyrrhus the First and the classic Oaks with Men dicant, and in 1854 he again won the Derby with Andover.
 Gully was the first and only pug Hist in the British parliament, as he was elected to that body in 1892. He retained his seat only two seasons, when he resigned and quit politics. He sold off his stud in 1855, and spent the remaining years of his ad- venturous and romantic life at Cork ing Hall, near Durham. He died in 1863, at the age of eighty. Gully was twice married, and was the father of a round dozen children. In England today there are many people who boast descent from this humble son of a publican who became a butcher. a convict, champion pusilist, a pub lican, & bookmaker, a Derby winner, member of parliament and a multi millionaire mine owner.

Maybe he could-and maybe Johnny is just spoofin'.
 In addition to his own title and that held by Williams, Johnny also wants the lightweight crown which Freddie Welsh has found such a val uable possession. Kilbane says ne is going to "hound' the Welshman until he gets 8 whack at him and then-good night for Freddie! But Freddie did quite bit of "hounding" himself, it will be remembered, before he cornered Willie Ritchie in ring. Rounding is one of the best things Freddie does.
 Kilbane is by no means the first fighter to have to go out of his class to get matches. Joe Walcott, while welterweight champion, fought mid dleweights and heavyweights, and if the white heavyweight crop had been no better than it is now he might have won the title, although he was only five feet and one and a half inches tall. Bob F'itzsimmons cleaned up the best heavies while still able to make the middleweight limit. As a general proposition. however, a good big man can whip a good little one, and in going after the light weight title Johnny will have hard sledding.
 Kilbane was born in Cleveland, of Irish parents, and was a switch tender and railroad clerk before he took up the fighting game. He made his bow in the ring in 1907, and he has been fighting pretty steadily ever since. There have been occasions when Johnny was very disappointing as d ring performer, but when he trains properly and does his best he is a marvel His younger brother, Tommy Kilbane. has made a fa1r showing in the ring, but he lacks the class displayed by his champion brother.

The shrinking violet is a brasen thing compared with the modest Johnny. Kilbane declared, after whipping Kid Will Hams in Philadelphia, at 122 pounds, just a month ago, that he stood ready to make 116 pounds ringside for an other bout with the bantam cham pion.

WOMEN MAY SERVE
As Judges and Clerks of Elections in
 Chicago. Says Judge ScuIly.

Chicago, April 17.-Women will be permitted to serve as judges and clerks of elections in Chicago, ac- cording. to ruling made by County Judge Thomas r. Scully, who re- versed his former decision which pro- hibited them from serving.
 ''Women have elevated the polling places by lending dignity to them" Judge Scully said. The old days of smoke filled polling places disap- peared as soon as women were al- lowed to serve. Their presence also has prevented political squabbles." The judge in his earlier decision pro- hibiting women from serving, ruled that clerks and judges must be house holders or those who support the family.

Superbas 25 Years Old.

The Brooklyn club will celebrate tomorrow its twenty-fifth birthday, as it was on April IS, 1890, that the Dodgers played their first game in the National league. losing to Boston by a score of 15 to 9. This was a bad start, but the Brooklynites copped the pennant their first year out. "Bill'' McGunnigle was the pilot of the first Brooklyn club, which was under thesHpresidency of Charles il. Byrne. Bob Carruthers, Tom Lovett and w. H. Ferry constituted the twirling staff, and Clark, Daly and Bushong alternated behind the bat. Foutz. Collins, Pinkney, Smith, Don ovan, O'Brien. Burns and Corkhill completed the roster. Brooklyn didn't win another pennant until 1899, when Ned Hanlon's great team copped the rag, and repeated the following year. Since that time. the Superbas have never finished better than sec ond, and have usually finished in the second division.
