BOXERS ARE "CREAM PUFFS"
Retired San Francisco Lightweight
Says Present-Day Scrappers Never
Do Any Damage.

Eddie Hanlon, the retired San Fran
cisco lightweight, says the present
day boxers are a lot of "cream-puf"
scrappers, who can box every night,
do no damage and have none done to
them. Hanlon does not regret having
been a boxer, for it benefited him,
physically and financially.
Il made my friends" he says. I
travelled all over the country and
was well paid for anything l did. l
tried my best, and, judging from some
of my fights, the other fellow tried his
best, too. l might have been a good
carpenter or fine blacksmith, where
as made $4,000 out of the ring game.
Some of it l saved, the rest l threw
away.

In Jake Daubert the Brooklyn team
has the greatest little animated tele-
scope in baseball today. Six feet one
inch in height, the first sacker in the
Dodgers possession can and does snag
many a wild toss and still manages
to keep his foot on the bag, to the
great discontinue of the batsman try
Ing to get to the initial corner. It
takes mighty wild heave to draw
Daubert from the bag.
It is figured that Jake can get a
throw nine feet from the bag when
the ball comes to the right, stretching
his full length and still hooking the
station with his toe.
Having to reach across his body
with his gloVed hand when ball is
thrown to the left of the bag, he natu-
rally loses some distance in mailing
these heaves, but he can get those
that come within eight feet and two
,r three inches. OF course, if the
worst comes to the worst, the Dodger

The United States Department OF

urging every citizen in the state TO

against the ravages OF the Texas fever
tick. II is pointed out that Arkansas
cattle cannot compete in great beef
markets on the same commercial basis
with the cattle OF other states until
the tick is eradicated and this cannot
be done without dipping watts.
The work in Arkansas is being done
under the direction OF DR.. r. Nj. Cow,
state veterinarian and head OF the De
partment of Veterinary Science at the
University of Arkansas, and Dr. A. h.
Wight, in charge Of government tick
fighters in Arkansas. Recently an un-
official tick eradication district was
created which included II counties in

counties will be in charge Of w. \.

PINE BLUFF WILL TAKE ACTIVE

WILL MEET NOVEMBER 1916
Claims in Next Two Years a Con-

North and South of Pine Bluff
Should Be 15O Miles Long.

Pine Bluff
Pine Bluff will take an active part
in the conference to be held at New
Orleans November 1916, at which
time the jefferson Highway Assocla-
ton will be formed. The Chamber or
Commerce has named a delegation
composed of P. P. Byrd, capitalist;
Zeba Bennitt, cotton factor; Mayor
Simon Bloom, County Judge c. NJ.
Philpot and J. Walker Jones, planter,
to attend the conference, and Pine
Bluff will make bid for representa-
ton on the permanent committee.
Situated in the center Of the sec
ton the proposed Winnipeg-New Or
leans road will traverse, Pine Bluff
in a logical point for the road to touch.
When to this is added the fact that
already Pine Bluff is a central point
on an S0-mile north-and-south stretch
of asphalt and gravel road, the local
roads enthusiasts believe that Pine
Bluff will surely be point on which
the great highway will touch. Within
the next two years a continuous road
now in construction north and south
of Pine Bluff should be $50 miles long,
and should be a great link in the
highway.
