fight would be held wherever the
biggest guarantee was offered.
Although Tex Richard started
the ball rolling, 1t is doubtful
whether or not he will actually
promote the fight or not. A doz-
en- or more other promoters are
presenting bids on the match, and
1t is more than likely The match
will not be held in New YORK
Among the bidders is Barney

kauf Is Under Handicap That
Stopped Marquard and O'TOOle

Benny Kauff, called the "Ty
Cobb OF the Federal league" is
going into organized baseball
next season under the same
handicap that made life miserable
for Rube Marquard, Marty
0'Toole, Lefty Russell and Larry
Chapelle.
Kauff has been touted to such
an extent he will have to set the
National or American league on
fire to be regarded only an ordi-
nary ball player.
Vanguard was touted to the
skies when the Giants bought
him for $1,000. and 1t was three
years before he was worth a
nickel to McGraw. O'Toole's sale
for $22,500 attracted a lot OF at
tention and Marty, a really good
pitcher, never did come up 20
expectations.
Russell, bought by Connie
Mack, for $4,000. was failure
In the majors, and Chappelle,
touted as an $4,000 beauty
when Comiskey got him from
milwaukee,, was back in the min
ors in short time.
Kauff played great ball in the
Federal. He led the league in
batting In both seasons of the
leagues existence and was the
top-notcher in other departments.
He can hit that old baseball and
Is fast on his feet, but that about
lets him out. He II not fin
ished fielder.
Kauff will not only have TO
overcome the effect OF newspaper
boosts, but the boosts he has
given himself, which makes
things worse.
When peace was declared be-
tween the Feds and o. B., Kauff
Immediately informed the world
that he was one OF the classiest
athletes that ever wore q glove
and that the club that secured his
services would have to give him

City Dump To Go.

The old, unsightly 'city
dump" on the tideflats near the
st. Paul mill, will be discontin-
ued, and several million otns of
waste material will go towards
improving gulches and untitled
streets.
And another point-prob-
ably the most important to
many personals that the
new combine of scavenger
men will collect garbage
from the average customer
at an even lower rate than
is now charged.
1.-The garbage men are eager
for the change, because they
think that they can make more
money under the new system, .
said Inspector O'Flyng today.
They will eliminate duplication
of routes, and cut down expenses.
ION the other hand, one of the
greatest troubles that the health
department has to contend with
is the careless dumping of refuse
In vacant spots throughout the
city. Those dumping places are
breeders of disease. Yet the pub
lie apparently does not take this
into notice.
Under the proposed plan, gar
bage rates to the average house
holder will be reduced, and the
entire city will have protection

chemical processes, into pull
verified, perfectly pure ash, with
in month.
In Tacoma at present
there are five garbage COM
panies. Competition is
keen. The companies can
afford to handle only that
class of trade In which they
are sure OF a big profit.
And for this reason, the out
lying districts, in many cases, are
unable to obtain seavenger serv-
ice, without paying an enormous
price for it. The result, evident
in vacant lots throughout the
city, is that citizens have fallen
into the habit of depositing the
refuse from their homes in the
easiest vacant place available.
Companies to join.
Inspector O'Flyng has held
conferences with the scavenger
dealers, and finds that they are
not all satisfied with present
conditions.
Last week he originated a lit
tie plan, and put it up to them.
They grasped the idea enthusia-
sically.
Roughly, Inspector O'Flyng S
plan is this:
The health department will
permit all existing scayenger con-
Germs to consolidate into one
company. It will then issue a

BV =. A. Peters

Another radical improvement
in the public health service of
Tacoma-this time involving a
systematic and hygenic collection
of garbage-will soon be effected
by the new health board.
Sanitary Inspector Barney
O'Flyng, father of the new idea,
announced at today's meeting of
the health commission that he
would have all details arranged
within a week.
Although the new garbage col
lection system will not be in the
nature of municipal ownership,
the city will maintain complete
supervision over the operation of
the plan, and will be ready to
guarantee perfect service to the
public.
And instead of using the city's
refuse food, tin cans, ashes and
other articles to help fill and
make valuable privately owned
tideland property, all such waste
material will be used in the flu
ture to fill up unsightly gulches,
unimproved streets, and impassa-
BILE alleys.
Sanitary Fill Plan.
The sanitary fill" idea of gar
bage disposal will be invoked.
By this plan, garbage is covered
with thin layer of earth, and
burns itself, through automatic

franchise to the company, per-
hitting it to collect garbage and
refuse in Tacoma under direct SUI
pervision of the health commits
sion.
None of the one-horse scaven-
ger concerns, which have been
careless of public health and the
city's appearance, will be per-
mitted to operate.
Stops Duplication.
Hhe city will be districted. Diff
ferent wagons will be assigned
to each district. There will be
none of the present duplication
of collection routes.
The scavenger company will be
compelled to make collections
anywhere in the city limits, upon
demand. No one who losses an
armful of ill-smelling tin cans
into a vacant lot can excuse him
self with the plea that garbage
collectors have refused to accom-
modate him.
Although this central
scavenger concern will have
monopoly, its rates will be
dictated by the health COM
mission, and any overcharge
will be grounds for a revoca-
ton of the license.
Improved collection wagons,
which can be securely covered
while passing Through city
streets, will he used.
