The appointment of Fred Mitchell

the most efficient bosses.
OF 10 managers in the majors,

The efficiency of backstops as

RACINE PRESENTS GOOD TEN
ROUND FIGHT TONIGHT
BY Mark Shields

A real fight should be the outcome
Of the meeting at Racine tonight be-
tween Richie Mitchell and Joe Well
ing. Followers of the ring game are
to be treated to a fine example of
mitt work, if the past performances
of the two men means anything.
Both are excellent boxers, masters
; of defense and the finer points of the
game. And each carries a punch
that is much better than the Ordi-
nary. In addition to these mechan-
ical qualifications, neither man in the
past has been known as a staller and
both are expected to push matters
from the first bell.
yelling has a more pretentioUs
record than Mitchell and pre-battle
study gives him slight edge on the
argument. But, in order to have any
margin at the finish. Joe must work
every minute of the 80 the two will
Gbe IN actual combat.
Mitchell and yelling have ambi-
tons toward the lightweight cham
plOnSmp. BOCn nave an eye to ~
ture engagements and know that
victory tonight means employment
for good purses throughout the win
.teG
To Mitchell victory probably means
more than to yelling. The Milwau-
kee man has been coming forward
with great strides recently and has
drawn the attention of Tom Jones,
manager of champions" The han
der of Jess Willard is ready to take
up Mitchell if the Iattet shows pos
sfbiIities. He is ready to campaign
Mitchell through the east before big
clubs and against the tOp-notchers
Of the lightweight division.
Yelling already has reputation in
east, made in the last few months,
and wants to return to that section
and busy himself around New York.

Mushroom Heirs v To, Hetty Green
 Fortune Increase

New Bedford, Mass. Oct. IT, Claiming relationship to the late Mrs. Hetty H. Green, ''the richest woman in the world" hundreds of people all over the United States have been writing to the trustees of the Sylvia Ann Rowland estate demanding a share in the Rowland fortune ! This estate, amounting to about $1,25O, 900, released for distribution by the death of Mrs Green. who had 9 life inter- est therein, is to pass to the lineal descendants of Gideon Rowland of Dartmouth, Mass. grandfather of tes- tatrix. Claimants are springing up daily from every state in the Union, but they are doomed to disappoint- ment, inasmuch as there is no founda- ton for their, claims.
 The. trustees have the cbmplete list of the heirs, who are 436 in number embracing every person who can be included, and have notified all of them in regard to the coming distri- buticn. Although hundreds of oth- CTS who bear the names of the in- heriting families have written to the trustees, all attempts to add to the list are proving futile, because of the thoroughness and accuracy with which the genealogy of the Howlands has been compiled. Entanglements such as fiction likes to build around the in- heritance of great estate do not ex- ist in the ,Howland case. The heirs are scattered throughout the, coun- try. A
 Despite a common belief that Cid con Howland and Mrs. Hetty Green were descendants of John. Rowland, one of the Mayflower Pilgrims, the ancestral line clearly shows that they belong to another branch of the num- erous Rowland family.

Peca.iarities of Czech.

The Czech language is the riches; and most developed. but at the same time the harshest and strongest low. ing to its abounding in consonants) Of the Slavonic tongues. It differs from most European languages in the use of quantity instead of accent in its poetry, as in Greek and Latin, ani hence it can copy accurately the differ ent meters of those tongues. Indeed. 1t is doubtful if there is another mod ern language into which the. ancient classics can be so faithfully and forci bly translated. Unfortunately its gram mar is complicated and consequently exceedingly difficult to master.-Lon- don Chronicle.

Why Sheep Have Wool.

If you want to ask a sheep where he got his wool and why take dog into a mountain pasture band and if the sheep are afraid of the dog they will invariably run uphill rather than down You have your answer. The ancestory of the domestic sheep. like wild sheep of the present day, lived among high mountains and needed their woolly covering to protect them against the constant cold of high atmospheres.
 They chose the high and inhospitable region to live in because they found the fierce flesh eating animals of the plains too strong for them. A proof of these facts is that the wool grows on a sheep the year round.-Chicago News.

 Prosperity Here Now
 To the first question, he answered ''No;"/to the second, II am not car ried away by the statements and promises that any political party in the outs may make. Let us remem- Der the story of Little Red Riding Hood and the Aesop fable about the dog that dropped a piece of meat to jump into the water after its shadow
 Ut doesn't matter so much about causes,'' he continued. Prosperity is here. It must depend for it's contih- uance largely on our courage. initia- tive and enterprise, and not on poli- ticians or political parties. ,
 There can be no honest denial o4 the fact that many of the 'so-called Wilson laws have stabilized business The Federal Reserve Act is one. The Rural Credits Act is another. The passage of the Child's Labor Act was a humane, intelligent thing. It wait ed many years, and it was a Demo cratic Administration that put it into effect"
 "How about the Tariff Commis- sion?" F
 "A common-sense, much-needed ac- complishment. Its formation was ir the football field of politics for sev- era1Nyears. It remained for the Pres ident to put 1t on firm ground. With the right sort of men for Commissi on. CTS the tariff complications that have in the past unsettled things will reach an intelligent settlement"
 For Preparedness Plan
 The talk turned to preparedness and MT. Underwood said: "A profes- sional pacifist is just about as dan gerous as a professional jingo. We should stand for peace and work fpl peace. In the near future we must become prepared fully or take the consequences. Possibly the conse. quences may not be so far remote as some of our pacifist friends seem t ,think. Adequate preparedness fol national defense is the commences kind of common sense. think the President found the safe middle ground between the 'mush' and mil itarism.' ID n J5 { ''Conditions, are always changing MT. Underwood continued. ''Thei imar who says he never changes his mind Is capable of two interpretations: He may be inaccurate m his statement or he may have no mind to change.
 Some of our, political friends are lending their support to every foreign government that is in controversy with the United States. They are willing to discredit America for the purpose of discrediting the President
 ''In my opinion the fight against President Wilson has no larger aspect than a greatly unpatriotic clamor of the 'outs'- for the possession of the things now in the hands of the fns'.''

 SEES VICTORY S ! ! FOR WILSON
All Republican Opposition Cannot Defeat Him Says E T. F.. Smith, Secretary.

z New York. Oct. 17-This is Will son year; all the Republican opposi- ton cannot defeat him with a united nemocracy and the independent yot- CTS for him. This Is the belief of Thomas F. Smith, Secretary of Tam many Hail and one of the shrewdest observers of the trend of the poli7 tical sentiment In this country. l : 2 MT. Smith, in. an interview today. said that President Wilson is gaining Strength every day. The defection in he ranks of Irish-Americans is so Night. as to be almost negligible. Among his many friends and associ- ates are also hundreds of Germans. or these, MT. Smith said at least for ty per cent will vote the straight Democratic ticket. lM
 Commenting on the attitude of the Progressives, MT. Smith said he had made careful observations and had become convinced that surprisingly big percentage of this vote will be in the Democratic column. e Tt has been my habit for a great many years to take my luncheon in well-known restaurant in Fourteenth street which is a rendezvous for the most rabid German -Americans in this country" MT! Smith said. T have been amazed by the change of senti- nent among these Germans within the 1ast few weeks. Only a. day or two ago a party of six Teutons lunched at the table next to mine. Five of these men admitted and avowed that they had been violently prejudiced against President Wilson. But said the spokesman of the party, MT. Wilson has kept us out of war. My busi- ness has prospered as it never pros- , pered before. I am able to go home at night, meet my family with the announcement that our income is so increasing that there is no necessity for the wife to curtail our mode of life or her weekly household ex- penses.'
 "It was not long before the argu- uents of the, five Wilson. converts had prevailed and a sixth man agreed that he too was willing to back the opin- ions of his fellows with. his vote on November 7th. ,s
 s'This is but one of many instances that have come to my attention in the last few weeks. Mr. Wilsoni will not only be reelected, but by suApris- ingly large majority. Tammany Hall fAdoing it's part, and you as well as l know that Tammany always obeys ior- ders. The order has gone forth that New York Ci-y must roll up it's cus- tomary Democratic ma jority. That majority is forthcoming.
 "Anything that Jeremiah O'Leary might have said in criticism of Pres- fdent Wilson can only be seriously considered by that element of the Irish which is proverbially 'asin the

 T am firmly convinced that MT. Wilson will carry states that the Re- publicans have already marked up in their column among these Ohio. Ithave already wagered Ohio will go Democratic. MT. Murphy Leader of Tammany HalD agrees with me.
 ''In conclusion this is Democratic year and despite the millions of dol lars that MT. Hughes is backed with, he is making the poorest campaign any Republican presidential candidate has conducted within my memory"

UNDERWOOD, PRESIDENT s OF THE ERIE RAILROAD. COMES OUT FOR WILSON
Denies President Played Politics in Eight Issue and Asserts He Carried Burden of People of the
 Country Some People, He Says Willing to Discredit s~ America Just to Dscredit President.

Chicago. Oct. 17-In an authorized interview given out here yesterday F, D. Underwood President of the Erie Railroad, declared unequivocally In favor of the reelection of President Wilson. MT. Underwood said he fully fndorsed the recent approval Of the Presidents policies by Judge Robert s. Lovett, Chairman of the Board or the Union Pacific Railroad.

 ' Acceding to request to Ego on. Lr. Underwood elucidated his reasons for thinking that the Administration of President wilson, has on the whole, been successful and worthy of fur finer trial"

No one could fairly accuse him of playing politics, and, while my views did not Correspond with his, I concede that his motives were honest. ti
 He did not carry the burden of the railroads or the claimsiof the brother hoods as his load. He carried that of the people of the United States. The rnisrepresentations of the brother hoods. which he mistook for truth, moved him to action His eminent fairness is shown in the personnel of the commission that Is to study the working of the experiment, and his 4rpointing of the Comnittee on Ma uonal Defense, which, with but one e1ceptions could not be improved on.'' fWhen asked his opinion of the Eight Hour Law, MT.
