birthday Surprise for Mrs. Payne.

On Saturday afternoon quite q
numb Der of the members of the La
dies Aid Society met at the church
and marched to the home of the Bap-
list minister. They were certainly
believers in preparedness, as they
were well prepared to. make Mrs.
Payne happy. The occasion was her
birthday. Somehow the dates got
Juggled as her birthday was not un-
I'll the day following, but that did
not detract one iota from the happy
hour.
When the ladies were all seated.
Mrs. Rufus Norton. the president, in
few well chosen words informed
Mrs. Payne that pastors wives had
birthdays as well as the pastor him
self. She closed her neat little
speech by presenting Mrs, Payne
with a beautiful handmade quilt,
made by the ladies themselves. Each
stitch seemed to speak of labor OF
love. Other ladies presented Mrs.
Payne with some very fine fancy
work.
Mrs. Payne In response stated that
words feebly expressed her deep
appreciation for their kindness. The
ladies brought their refreshments
with them. The whole affair was a
only an indication of the high es-
TEEN in which she is held by the Aid
Society and church at large.

KllbUne

Matt Hinkel, Promo

Taking Chance.
BY Frank G Menke.

'"''N ~ 'fN'NNs
NEW YORK. Aug 16--lt cost Matt
Hrnkcl iust $1,000 to be selected as
referee for the Johnny Klbane- George
Chancy fight on Labor day in Cedar
Point. Ohio
IIinkcl a Cl.yclandcr is promoting
the affair He guaranteed Kilbane
$1,000 and Chancy 5000 and an ad-
dltioHal $500 for expenses. Clancy
wanted more so Hiukcl made this prop.
ositlon
III YOU lose the fight I'll add $1,000
TO your share, making it $500 alto
gsther Ii you win YOU get only $S,-
500"
Clancy accepted
And then came the deed that cost
Hinkel $1,000 Johnny kilbane in
sisted that Hlnkel referee the match
and Clancy did likewise After Hin
kel had assured himself that both men
really wanted him-and no one else
he accepted.
Changes Contract Clause.
Then 1t occurred to him that the
81 900 clause in the CLANCY contract
was somewhat dangerous The fight
will be fifteen rounds to a decision
with the worlds championship at stake.
With that conditional bonus in the
CLANCY contract il made il possible for
folks after the fight to declare (in
case Clancy wins on decision) that
lIinkel gave the tight 20 Clancy to
save himself from having to turn over
10 Clancy the extra $1,000 as balm for
a CLANCY defeat o
So Hinkel got in touch with Chaney's
manager at once, killed out that pro-
viso and boosted Chaney's actual guar
antec with eypenscs) from $500 to
$500 win, lose or draw.
Yes Oscar, $1,000 is a healthy flock
OF dough TO part with merely for the
honor OF being a referee
Kilbane and Hinkel Unfriendly.
One of the peculiar features Of Hin
kel's selection as referee is that
tIinkcl and kIbaue never used to
speak as they passed by Kind and
loving friends always feared that they
might take to Sluggng each other on
the avenue as a result Of their ieud OF
fairly long standing
kilbane IS known as a lemon pick
er" He has mixed in some affairs
that were fights in name only He did
little other than stall On several oc-
casions Hlnkel has taken to "panning"
him in public for those tactics.
"kibane is not playing fair with the
public when he puts up such fights"
asserted the veteran referee.
Eventually the ieatherweight king
heard about Hinkels roasting and il
peeyed him nightly He breathed
threats-and then shouted them. He
wasn't going to have referee say
anything unkind about him--no, street
Roasting Heated Johnny.
But Johnny cooled off before he
again saw IIinkel on the street and
then instead OF ,swattine Matthew upon
his frontispiece. as promised he mere
" glared at him and let il 90 at that.
But he never failed to glare-and Just
drcadfully, too.
Therefore, kilbancs advocacy OF
Hinkel to referee the most important
bout in which he figures since he won
the championship in 1912 came as
something Of a surprise But Jimmy
Dunn, manager for Kilbanc explains
it away by saying
"Ju,t because Johnny was sore at
Hinkel for roasting him is no reason
why he wouldn't have Hinkel TO ref
cree his bout, He regards Hinkei as
the sQuarest fairest and best third
man in the country--thats why he
wanted Hinkel and no one else"
