Usually it takes from one hundred
to one hundred and twenty ears of
corn to make one busheI. The variety
is known as the Mushrush-

The fire boys at the North Topeka
station are in need of another supply
of ma azines for their library. On an
average of twice a year they appeal to
the public through the local papers for
used reading matter. During the win
ter months when tie weather is in
element, idle hours can be shortened
by reading literature that persons of
Topeka have cast aside.
A telephone call or postal through
the mail will bring one of the firemen,
who will gladly take any reading mat

IN PHIL BATTLE WITH
GIANTS; MORAN HAPPY
New York Groggy Over
Three Successive Defeats.
Alexander Reserved for
Opening Game Against
Boston Braves.

NEW YORK, April 2l.-Iikc Gaul. all
New York is divided into three parts to-
day. One-third of these is attempting To
fathom how the PhiIlIes did it; another
third is heaping abuse on McGraw's head
and the final section is preparing to so to
The Polo grounds this afternoon and do
some regular roofing to help the Giants
nail the ultImae contest of the series.
That Moran should come to the me-
tropolis and make the beloved Giants
appear to such wretched advantage is
something beyond the ken Of Gotham.
They don't get it, but they admit that
the Phillies are a far stronger organlza-
tion this year than they were last and
that the chances for them to make a
great run for the rag i'm Tener's league
are growing brighter daily
Patrick Moran, the power behind the
base-hit punch, was undecided this
morning whom he would offer in the
target trench. Probably Baumgartner or
Rixey, the left-handed duo may he called
on. At any rate, II is certain that Mo-
ran is saving Alexander for the opening
game in Philadelphia tomorrow against
the beaten Braves Rube Marquard Is the
best guess for New York's hurler, al
though McGraw Is holding his Intentions
TO himself these bright April days.
1t is generally conceded among the
non-paTtlsans of baseball that the Phil
lies have a great hitting suad, But the
manner in which the visitors have shown
up in fielding and pitching is the big
surprise Yesterday they continued their
hammering In the crises, beating the
Giants for the third successive time
The score was five to two.

HANPIONSHIP"-BY JESS WILLARD


had been in action with Miller for a
couple of minutes.
Miller rushed me around the ring as u
! was the cheapest novice in the busi-
ness and, to make matters worse,
played right into his hands by slugging
away with him. hoping to win with a
knockout IN quick style and thus save
myself from getting too tired
Well. I knocked him down a couple OF
times but coudn't hit him squarely on
tho Jaw Hc simply wouldn't stay down,
and I'm tho third round I was so tired
could scarcely get out Of my chair.
That tight was complete revelation TO
me and taught me then and there the
value or condition at all times, whether
the fight he Of ono four, 10, 20 or 60
rounds
They called the fight draw at the end
Of tho fourth round, and I can truthfully
say right now that never was so glad
to hear anything in the world as the
sound Of that final gong
It was with difficulty that ] dragged
myself 10 tho corner at the finish, and
all I could gasp ont to Tom Jones in my
corner was something about never
again" It was a lucky thing for me that
it was Miller that night instead OF a little
better man. Had been pittcd with some
accurate heavy hitter there's no telling
what might have happened to me.
D8u bailey. the htg German heavy
weight Jimmy Dino has. gave me des-
pcratc argument, too. although was in
shape for him From the fourth to tho
ninth round he kept coming at me in
the most vicious fashion, and. though [
Kept knocking him TO tho floor. I could
not score a home run until near the end.
bailey would have been a wonderful
man hut for the fact that his feet and
ankles were SO peculiarly built that he
could set no spring or action for foot
work. Hc acted all the time as IL nailed
to tho floor, 1t was a fatal defect.
