MADISON SQUARE
GARDEN HARD TO GET
Tex Rickard Says Rivals Have
Double Crossed Him But
He VIII Win
BY H. G. Hamilton


Omitted Press staff correspondent
New York, Dee. 26.-Tex Rickard,
promoter, chaperon to Les Darcy and
mysterious gum shoe expert, is having
more trouble in getting Madison Square
Garden in which to hold boxing bouts
than he did in becoming mayor of
Nome, Alasga, some years ago.
Rickard said today that if there was
game the jealous promoters and
would be promoters of New York had
not sprung on him in their attempts to
keep him out of the boxing game ne
would like to get a slant at it. In
fluence of Tammany Hall, penny poll
tlcians and every other influence has
been thrown into the harness to pull
against him, Riekard said.
" You d be surprised" he declared,
if you knew the things some of these
fellows have done. -
Riekard expects to be able to an
nounce that opposition has been over
come and that he has become the hold
or of lease on Madison Square Gar
den. PIE explained the reason himself
by saying he could put up a cash bond
for the rental, while most of the 9TH
ers would have to wait and make the
money before they could pay.

1t would be we'll for other states
to emulate the example of North
Carolina in this good work.
We are constantly receiving les
sons in thrift from the war-stricken
nations. France has appointed
National Board of Supervision,
presided over by Almond Falliers,
former President of the French
Republic. This board, which is
nothing more or less than a thrift
cabinet, will be invested with large
powers in an effort to stop waste,
and compel people to economic.
Shops will begin closing at 6 p. m.
and restaurants and cafes, which
are now compelled to close at
1890, will have to close their doors
an hour earlier. Theatres and OPP
eras will be closed on Mondays.
moving pictures on Tuesdays, and
music halls on Wednesdays. The
board of supervision may name ad-
ditional closing days to reduce the
consumption of coal for lighting.
These facts should be extremely
significant to Americans.
OF course, these are extreme
war time measures, but they show
what a powerful factor thrift can
be made in the routine of daily
life.
The material resources of Amer
ica could be materially enhanced
by the application of thrift princi-
pies, without in any way injuring
legitimate business enterprises. Q

Democrats who went to Maine in order

not divulging his identity.
A woman came in.

a friend.
"Goin' to the public speakin' to-

Gen. Henry G. Sharpe, who has

A native of New York, he was
born in Kingston, on April 80, 1868.
His family is one of the oldest in the
state, having lived there for genera
tons. His father was Gen. George H.
Sharpe, a veteran of the Civil war,
who was friend and favorite of Cen
eral Grant and one of the political
leaders of the Empire state.
Under the army bill, which be-
came a law early in 1901, General
Sharpe reached the grade of colonel
and upon the promotion of Commits
