Get On Nerves First; Victory Is

Get on the nerves of your opponent" was al axiom of Kid Mccoy in
his fighting days. The Kid was cute and counted much of his success
to his brains. w. 1.-Es
Mccoy, however, mas not hogged the imelght in this stunt, as de.
yelcped the other day. Packey Mcfarland is the one who shares the
honors. .
A New York promoter told the story and vouched for its truth.
rackey nce worked the art on the redoubtable Leach Cross. The
par were in a downtown newspaper office being weighted IN for a fight.
at the Farmont A. C. Cross got on the scales and the beam didn't
move AS Leach backed off the scales Packey purpOsely got In his
wy and as a consequence they bumped into each other.
"What do YOU mean by showing me? yelled Packey with a furious
frown.
81 didn't mean to shove you, Packey,' said Leach, thoroughly fright
ened. ID. - E% "-#t. fz&
"You did, and you did it on purpose growled Packey.
you're mistaken" said Leach, meekDy .. ..+.H.."t-
"How dare you contradict me?' roared Packey. Take that" and
Leach was sent spinning against the wall from the force OF q lett
hook that caught him full on the chin.
That look ali the SUNK out OF Cross. That night Packey had to ac-
tualy chase Leach, S. frightened was the east slider. Packey laugh
i1ly admitted afterward that the scale incident had been put on Tor
the sole purpose of getting Cross nerve. -r ".

farm AGAIN
CHANGES HANDS
Deal Closed First of the Week In
wolves $4,000; Pending Since
Last Summer.

One of the largest land deals ever
made ! nEmlnons county was closed
the first part Of this week, when
Messrs. Burdick and Drager of Illinois
sold to A. G.. and E. f. Weiser of
Granger, Iowa, the east n half and
northwest quarter Of section 16-135-76
for a consideration of $4,000 per acre,
or a total of $4,000. The tract con.
tains 480 acres and is known as the
Kelly farm. 1t lies three miles north
east of town and is one Of the finest
pieces of land in the county.
The deal has been pending since
last summer and the many changes
in the contract have kept the pap
ers flying back and forth from own.
ers to purchasers for a long time.
However, the matter was satisfactorily
adjusted this week and the deal went
through. The Hazelton Land Agency,
l.. H. Brigle, manager, handled the
transaction. -
Messrs. Burdick and Drager have
owned the farm something like four
years and while they were we'll salts.
fed with their investment and reluct.
ant to let go, the offer of the Weiser
Bros. was considered a good one and
was accepted.
One of the Weisers was here last
summer and was so fav0rably i'm
pressed with the country that he
Immediately began loking around for
land and picked out the Kelly farm
as. n of the real good ones. The
offer and acceptance followed which
this week resulted in the transfer OF
the farm. -,
Jacob Keifer who has tenanted the
place the past two years, has the
land leased for another year, and
at the expiration of his contract it is
understood the land will not be rent
ed again, but that E. F.. Weiser, one
Of the purchasers will move here and
work the farul.
That land is rapidly increasing in
value in Emmons county is illustrat-
ed by the big deal eliminated this
week. In the fall of 1910 Mr.. Kelly
sold the farm for $32 per acre, which
at that time was about the highest
price ever recorded for land in this
section. During the four years the
land has increased in value, accord
ing to the sale, IS per acre, and right
now it is predicted that it could easily
be sold for $45. What is true of this
particular tract is true all over this
section of the county, and in the
next two or three years land values
are going to jump much faster. Even
now some land close in is being held
at SIS ner acre. ADV.

splendid harmony and physical condi-
ton that has marked the, showing OF
the players to date gives impetus in
the struggle tonight. The class of
the team from a standpoint of team
work is not questioned. All that is
necessary to keep the boys winning

Etc, to be Announced
at Early Date
MUCH INTEREST
IN THE EVENT

Local devotees Of the scatter gun
are planning for their annual team
shoot and dinner, which is usually
pulled off early each year. At a meet
ing on Thursday night of last week Of
the handicap and advisory committee

big annual affair on Saturday. Feb
ruary 49,.
AS usual there will be a team shoot
in the afternoon at the dupont Club,

pate in the struggle for supremacy,
and on the same evening a love feast
will be enjoyed, where the members
will shoot this and other matches over
again. and recall and recount many
of the pleasing memories and happen
ings of the year past.
In previous years 1t has been the
custom for the club officials to Sc
lect two captains who would choose
sides and then both would do their
best to get their team mates out to
shoot on the day appointed for the
struggle. The losers would pay for
the dinners of the winners. OF course
the man who mustered the greatest
strength won out, as, under the rules
/ he counted only a number Of scores
/ equal to the total strength Of the
smaller team. This meant that the
! larger team was able to throw out all
I or its lowest scores while the smaller
team could not enjoy this privilege.

Second FIRE NEAR

Carry Works of Art From
Danger When Widows
Home Burns at Night
BLAZE STARTS
IN MAIDS ROOM

Firemen. who were called yester-
day morning to combat a fire in the
late home of Howard Pyle, the artist,
No. 907 Delaware avenue, in which
were paintings valued at thousands of
dollars were summoned again last
night to fight a fire at the home of
Mrs. Howard Pyle, widow of the art
ist of No. 1914 Park Drive AT the
night fire the firemen were again call
ed on TO save valuable paintings by
the late artist which decorated the
rooms of the home. The art treasures
were saved, the only damage done be-
ing due to smoke. This can be re-
moved from the mural paintings
Last nights fire was discovered by
a neighbor who sounded the alarm,
while the members of the Pyle fam
lily were at dinner. At that time the
smoke was pouring from third story
window. The blaze had started in
a room used by one of the maids.
The cause is unknown.
An alarm was sent in from box No.
73 at Lowering avenue and Scott
street and when the district engines
arrived the flames had spread through
the upper floor of the house. Plug
streams were poured into the building
and in a short time the fire was ex-
tinguished. Chief MagilPs examina-
tion showed the rear portion of the
third story of the property badly
damaged, and the water had damaged
all the furniture in the lower floors
that had not been removed by neigh
bOrs. The building is owned by the
Joseph Bancroft and Sons Company
and it, as well as the contents, were
insured.
While the fremen were hurrying
to the house, neighbOrs led by John
B. Bird, assisted in carrying the fur
niture from the house as well as many
of the paintings. These we're piled
along the Park Drive and later they
were removed to the homes of friends
While assisting in this work Mr.. Bird
fell, cutting his knee and hand. How
ever Mr.. Bird did not cease carrying
out furniture and pictures until all
had been removed
That two fires within twelve hours
should visit the Pyle properties i:
considered most unfortunate. At the
fires, however, none of the priceless
paintings were damaged.
