ing real well as a Welterwelght and
Lewis upset him.
Lewis-his right name, by the way,
is Gershon Mendeloff - is a rangy
chap with a terrific punch. He has
scored a knockdown or two in all his
fights here.
He's about the most elastic chap
the ring ever produced. He doesn't
bar any one at 1873 pounds, yet he
weighed $50 for Graves and expects
to weigh in at 1853 if he gets match
with Mike Gibbons. Just how this
fighter is able to put on and take off
weight like that nobody seems to
know, but he does.
And in doing so this Engiishman
who was not making training ex-
penses a year ago is piling up for
tune.
If Jess Willard fights in New Or
leans, as he has signed to do, it will
be the first time a heavyweight title
fight has been held there in rs years.
In 1892 Jim Corbett knocked out
John L. Sullivan at New Orleans and
won the heavyweight title. Sulli-
van, Corbett, Fitzsimmons, Jeffries,
Johnson and Willard have held the
title in the past 25 years.
Johnny KiIbane, featherWeight
champion, miffed at the criticism he
is picking out the soft ones in his
division, has raised the weight limit
from 122 pounds to 1873, and an
nounced that he will meet any man
in the world at that weight.
Since he became champion Kill
bane has made nearly all his oppo-
nents make 122 pounds. He says
there are no 122-pounders worthy Of
a championship match and he is
ready to take on ightweights.

of the Oklahoma university eleven,

some players can kick it. He has

A year or so ago Ted Lewis was

eide whether to join the British army 4
and fight in the trenches or jump to-
the United States and do his fighting
in the ring.
He was an English featherweight
champ, but his title was not doing
him much good. He had whipped all
the boys in England, then gone to
Australia, where he cleaned out the
featherweights and walloped so
many Iightweights few boxers want

sediment ont OF the boiler at
the Excelsior Creamery, the valve
broke and there was a lively time
for few minutes with steam and hot
water blowing from the boiler under
pressure of seventy pounds with hot
fire in the fire b TX. The fire was raked
out and the toiIe cooled so that no
damage was done to the boiler. For
tunately no one was hurt. Mr.. Miler's
face got warming that would cure a
severe tooth ache, while he was draw

The butter-maker, Herman Miller,
spent a couple of days at the State
butter makers convention at Fond du
Lac. He sent a sample of butter there
to be compared with other butter made

on a scale of 100 as perfect.
Excelsior Brand scored 953 showing a
