BEST REGARDS
TO YOU, PAUL

Paul Steele, the smiling, cheer
ful lightweight who recently be-
came manager OF q gymnasium
and training quarters at 18th and
K streets, Is passing out the
cigars today.
IT'S a girl" says Paul, "and
I'm tickled to DEATH"
This makes three for Paul. He
has the distinction of being one
of the very few Tacoma boxers
who have settled down and made
good as regular family men.

EN- him on eountersafsfr
Willard told me at dinner last
night that he positively would not
fall into this trap-that johnson
was champion and 1t was up to
him to start the leading.
Then the battle will become
matter of wits, and the first man
who allows himself to be led into
certain openings will wear large
dimples over his eyebrows.
1t is the haroest fight in the
world to pick. First l saw John
son and believed Willard would
win. The negro impressed me as
man who never could get into

ID IN town DOCKING games. Har-
old claims Eatonville will have
a good team this year.
- ALL ABOUT MIKE!
Mike Barrett, already referred
to, has the fever to enter base
ball again and wants to get into
tho City league. Some of the
old time fans remember Mike as
the cheerful, peppery player who
worked around these parts few
years ago. Mike dropped baseball
to take up dramtic art two years
ago and made quite q success In
the South Tacoma Dramatic club.
He is strong for the Tigers and
declares that when the season Is
over Holmberg, McTigh, Eley and
Co. will go to California to play
for the worlds championship.
Mike is strong to beat the Bates
Federal team and is backing the
South Tacoma Tigers to win
against them. Mike, why pick on
Bates?
HERE'S HOPING. -
Henry Crowl and JuY6 Shager
are reported to be trying out
with the South Tacoma Tigers.

GAME AT OAKLAND.
The Oakland Midgets and Oak
land Married Men will play off q
long-expected contest Sunday
morning at 10 o'clock at the Oak
land grounds. organs and Carl
son will probably pitch for the
Midgets, with Peasants behind
the bat. The married men will
have q pickup team, and have
not yet announced their batteries.
HOPE THEY WIN.
The Olympic club team left for
Victoria Friday morning for
practice games with the league
teams OF British Columbia. The
entire team left except Smith.
Jimmie Woods OF the Milwaukee
took his place. Good luck, boys.
BATES WANTS HIM.
One Of the finest ball players
in Tacoma is Ed McTigh OF the
South Tacoma Tigers. Ed IL one
fine boy, both on and off the
field, and the team playing
against him il sure of considera-
ton. Bates would like to sign
McTigh, and hopes to get him for
the 1916 team.
ISN'T BULL, rs 1T?
That pitcher from Oakville,
Welland Strong. is still in town
trying to catch on with some OF
the City league teams. Strong
sure must be some pitcher, II the
record he boasts is true. 1t must
be true, for he IL too young to
hit the pipe. II 1t isn't true, we'd
like to try the brand he uses, for
It's all to the merry.

According to Er Bulgin, the evange-
list who goes up and down the coun-
try carrying on religious campaigns
for the betterment Of men and wom-
en- and the communities in which they
live, has an experience as remarkable
as anything recorded in the pages
u romance. Some of these expert
ences. according to DR.. Bulgin, are
pathetic in the extreme; others equal
ly humorous. "One is brought in con-
sact with all kinds and conditions of
people in such work." continued DR..
Buigin. ..and it is but natural that
these things should occur"
Some Funny Cases In Point.
While speaking of some of the
funny things that take place in con-
Rection with evangelistic work. Mrs.
Rose related couple of cases in
point to the writer. which we have
taken the liberty of publishing:
AT Miami. Oklahoma. a few years
ago." said Mrs. Rose, "a meeting was
being carried on by DR.. Bulgin and
= great public interest had been
aroused in the preacher and his work.
In the town there were three broth
ers: one prominent Baptist layman
and the owner of the airdome where
the meetings were being held. anoth-
er a building contractor and the third
retired citizen of the community
of somewhat peculiar disposition.
One Brother Is Missing.
After the meeting began the bro

could not be found anywhere in the
town, although he was to be seen in

OF the town busted themselves in an
endeavor to locate the place where
he secreted himself. but none could
follow him or find out where he was,
After the meetings had been going
on about three weeks one Of the
brothers happened to look up in the

files above the drop curtain of the
theatre and spied the missing man
lying on the joists directly over DR..
Bulgin where he was listening with
the most intense interest to what the
speaker had to say. He was nom
church goer and had secreted hinseif
on the beams every night since the
meetings had started in order that he
might hear what was said and not be
molested or importuned to make the
good confession when the invitation
was given"
Hollywood Incident.
Another time" continued Mrs.
Rose, 1--WE were holding meeting at
Hollywood, California. an aristocratic
suburb of Los Angeles. The meeting
was characterized by large attend
ance, an excellent interest on the part
of the attendants and was well sup
ported financially, but somehow was
not as fruitful in results as Dr.. Bull
gin had hoped would be the case. Try
as hard as we would, it seemed inn
possible to arouse the people to the
necessity of conversion and confes-
sions were far less numerous than
at other places where services had
been held. While not without its
good work the meeting did not come
, up to our expectations and was to
some extent disappointment in con-
sequence.
Cannot Measure The Influences
zone cannot, however. always mea-
sure the Influences of evangelistic
work and in this instance the real
good done was not apparent on the
surface of things. A year or SO after
It was over a man approached Mr..
Rose in Denver and inquired OF him
If he was not associated with DR.. Bull
gin in the meeting at Hollywood. On
being told that he was the stranger
said, II was converted at those ser
, vices and have been engaged in reli-
gious work ever since and have just

after ALL" concluded Mrs. Rose
"the Hollywood meeting appears tc
have been as far-reaching in its ef
fects as any ever conducted by DR.
