class as fighter next Monday night
at the Clermont Rink in Brooklyn.
His opponent will be Abe Friedman.
But the interest is not in his oppo-
nent, but in what Ertle himself will
do. AS the victor on foul over Kid
Williams, Ertle has come in for con-
siderable attention. He is said to be
q pretty fair boy, but not champion
by a long shot. The first test is not
severe one, yet a line may be
secured on Ertle even against an
inferior adversary. Reputation doesn't
count much around here unless the
fellow makes good. What you are
today seems to be the thing.
C
Charley Weinert is still touching a
few of the high spots around town,
and if he continues his escapades he
is likely to be less durable in his
next battle than he was when he met
Jack Dillon. Weinert has great speed
and his pace is killing one. He has
promised himself few weeks in the
country and a little much needed
rest. Jack Bulger, Weinert's man
ager, is negotiating for bout with
Jim Coffey, but it looks as If Billy
Gibson, Coffey's manager, is not able
to persuade Jim to meet Charley.
Such fightwould create whole lot
of interest, and it is hoped the match
will be made while Weinert has a
few ounces of strength left There is
more than a little local rivalry be-
tween Weinert and Coffey and they
would draw quite crowd in the
Garden.
@
Speed is great thing in the ring
If you only have the strength to back
it up. weinert has the speed of a
catapult. Those who pretend to know
say that Weinert set such fast pace
for Manager Bulger around here the
other night that the poor little fellow
held up both hands, yelled ''Murder!"
at the top of his voice and beat Il
back to the wilds of Brooklyn at
q. x. in the morning. Weinert sat
back with a ghoulish grin at the ex-
pense of his manager, and after Jack
had departed, Charley took a new toe
hold and started off on fresh trail
to conquer other fields.
O.
Weinert might have been an easy
winner over Dillon II he had only be-
come a member Of the National
Cycling Association before he entered
the ring. Weinert's advantage in the
first four rounds is admitted. In the

Of money out of his trip here. Darcy
is great fighter. He knocked out
Eddie McGoorty, he bested jeff Smith
and he gave Jimmy clabby beat
ing. He is said to be only nineteen
years of age. and Young Gradwell,
the Newark boy, who visited AUS
tralia and saw Darcy fight, declares
that Les is the marvel of the age. If
he is as good as Gibbons, he will be
some fighter, and match between
them will draw a packed house
c.
To the surprise of his closest friends
and his widest admirers, Patsy Kline
displayed great form in his bout with
Young Fulton at the Pioneer A. c.
last night. He stopped Fulton. who
was substituted for Tommy Houck, in
three rounds. Though Kline is smaller
than he used to be and he doesn't
look SO robust, he has acquired great
speed. and judging by his easy VIC
tory over Fulton, who is not bad boy
at all, it may be that Patsy is to get
back in the limelight again. If SO, the
fans around here will be glad, for
Kline is certainly a popular little fell
low. Patsy was very good last night
and he fought a pretty battle. He
pounded Fulton to the body and oc-
casionally the jaw. The punishment
was SO severe that Fulton appealed
his hand. The official said Very
WE'LL" and Kline was declared the
winner.
O.
A large crowd Of Newarkers at
tended the Pioneer show and cheered
for Patsy. His next fight will proba-
bly, be against Dutch Brandt at the
Broadway Sporting Club, and he may
get on several bouts II he can go
along and make good.
C
The result of his training activities
with Champion Willie Ritchie made a
new boxer out of Joe Cassidy, the To-
cal lightweight, at the Olympic A. c.,
New York, last night, when he easily
defeated Young Libby in ten-round
bout. Cassidy was to have met
Buddy Ryan, but Buddy failed to ap-
pear and Libby was substituted. Cas-
sidy displayed both boxing skill and
hitting powers, knocking his opponent
down four times. Joe used both
hands effectively and the crowd gave
him rousing reception at the end.
Cassidy will probably meet Jackie
Dobbs. another local product, at the
Olympic Club in the near future.

Bio Power Plant for Juneau District

Authorization to commence development of power system at Annex creek having the generation of 12,000 horse power as its ultimate goal was received from Colonel D. C. Jacklng by General Manager B. L. Thane of the Alaska Gastineau Mining Company yesterday, says the Juneau Empire of April TO- Plans for the first summers work were outlined at 8 conference of engineers of the company last night. The Annex creek power scheme enfolds a project twice as great from every standpoint, as the Salmon creek hydroelectric system, which was developed to furnish 5000 continuous horsepower as its maximum supply According to the pre- iminary plans, the waters Of Annex creek and it's neighbor, Carlson creek, both o1 which flow into Taku inlet, will be har messed this year, and eventually great concrete dam will be constructed. A lake at the source of Annex creek will be tapped this summer and completion of the pro- gram of 1915 is expected to provide one third of the power which the project is ex pected to yield, or 4,000 horse power. En gineers of the company declare that the An nex creek project will provide ample stor age of water, and contracts will be let for all phases of the first seasons construction work within short time. The Alaska Gas tineau company has been studying water power sources in the Carlson district fol many months, and record of the measure ments of the water has been kept for the past two years.

YUKON GOLD COMPANY
 HAD PROFITABLE YEAR

o. B. Perry, general manager Of the Yu- kon Gold Company writing to the Dawson News under date of March l, sent copy of the annual report of his company, which was being distributed on that date to stock holders The report was prefaced by an in- teresting statement to the stockholders by S. R. Guggenheim, president of the com, pany, who makes the significant observation among other matters, that the WAT has not hampered the company's operations, and orobably will not, because of location ot the properties and the fact that the product IS at a premium in most countries. With reference to the dredge operations Of the company, the report says:
 "The eight Dawson dredges began opera tion on May l2 and ran until October 23. The period of operation was about twenty days shorter than that of the previous sea- son, due largely to the discontinuance of the use of purchased power The dredging season is now limited in length by the op- eration of the company's hydro-electric power plant, which, due to climatic condi- tions, has water available only from May 10 to October 20, approximately.
 "The average length of the dredging sea son was 164 days during which the dredges operated SIP per cent of the possible time. The dredges mined 4,800781 cubic yards, which produced s2,6026s5, or an average of 5421 cents per cubic yard, which IS lower than last season by about cents per cubic yard The results, compared with last season. show decrease in yardage, gross value and net profit. The decrease in yard age was due to the shorter period of opera ton previously referred to. The decrease in production followed upon the decrease in yardage; also there was reduction ln value of 1902 cents per cubic yard. Less high grade ground was dredged than the season before, and the depth of taihngs handled was greater, which reduced the value per cubic yard The total cost was less than the previous season by slS9,792, and the royalties paid to owners were less by S111,107.
 While the total yardage was less than in l913 the average duty of the dredges was higher, in that they handled higher yard age for the operating time. This was due in large measure to the excellent power serv- ice maintained by the company's plant The thawing cost was reduced 1.39 cents per

Air.PropeIIed Sled for Alaska

A dispatch from Spokane, Wash states that sled driven by an air propeller, for the transportation of mails in Alaska, is the invention of I. s. McGregor of Spo- kane, who will leave shortly for St. Michael, Alaska, with the first completed model of the new invention. The machine known as the Gale power sled, was built at the Novelty carriage works, and the motor, which was formerly used in Curtiss bi- plane, is of the eight-cylinder, air-cooled type, generating A horse power The new sled is thirteen feet long and the widest part is three feet. The body is made of 22gauge steel. The drawings provide for five passengers or for l47 cubic feet of carrying capacity. The runners of the ma chine are detachable and are four inches n width. Two runners, six feet long, are attached to the front of the machine, and one five feet long in the rear The inventor has already tried out his model, and claims that he has proved its ability.

poos or Children :?

The people of the States are fighting cats. Douglas folks should fight dogs, says the Douglas Island News. With our narrow streets, we have scarcely room enough for the children-God bless 'em. But why should we have dogs? It takes as much to feed dog as it does to feed a pig-and the pig will grow up to be hog and you can eat it. If we had no dogs on Douglas Island we might raise sheep and goats, and the abundant verdure of the hillsdes would make them fat There is no excuse for 8 dog on the streets of Douglas unless he works-pulls meat or laundry cart. All the little, barking beasts are curse to the community Kill him and buy goat or a pig or sheep, and you'll be ahead at Ihe end of the year.
