MORAN ONCE FOUGHT FOR s2.5o.

FRANK MORAN, who recently fought
 Champion Jess Willard, received s666.67 per minute for his thirty min utes' work in the ring.
 This is in sharp contrast to some of the purses" for which Moran battled in the past A number of Pittsburghers were discussing Franks pugilistic rise recently. One of them recalled a bout F, which Frank took part at the Bed ford skating rink in Pittsburgh about ten years ago, when Martin Burk was conducting hat place. A heavyweight was sought to meet a district faVorite, and Moran applied for the battle.
 What will you want for your work ?'' he was asked by the promoter.
 "Tll go on for five dollar bill," re- piled Moran. &

 According to the tale, Moran was tickled to get even that much and went through with his agreement for the sum named.

DOES TENNIS STROKE
 HARM GOLFERS SWING?

THE fact that Maurice E. McLough-
 lin and William M. Johnston, na- tional tennis experts, have taken up golf lends interest to the often heard theory that tennis playing tends to hurt a golfers game by making the right hand too prominent in the exc cution of the long shots with disas- trous results.
 Follows Tennis With Golf.
 Miss Elinor Gates, the Long Island golfer, who figured so conspicuously in the recent Women's golf tournament at Pinehurst, followed up her golf tourna- ment work by entering the tennis championship. According to some golf theorists, this work on the courts will injure her links game and may prevent her from takin~ the rank in the spring golf tournaments in the metropolitan district that perhaps she might other wise attain.
 Theory May Get Jolt.
 If the California "comet" and the ten- his champion develop into as high class Wielders of the driver and cleek as they are handlers of the racket they will give the theory about "too much right hand 8 jolt A very good golfer has been developed out of William A. Lar- ned for many years the leading light in American tennis. Raymond D. Little. long among the tennis topnotchers, has not been so successful in his efforts to master the game with the little white ball. He has not yet "got going on the links. In the Piping Rock tourney in 1914 Little reached the final-of the beaten eight of the fifth sixteen.
 Mclaughlin an Example
 It will be interesting to watch Mo- Laughlin's development on the links and observe whether he can amount to anything as a player without changing the faults now noticea ble in his style.

SIXTEEN HURT AS
 TRAIN JUMPS TRACK
Hali-Open Switch Cause Of Wreck
 Near Th0maStOn ;.

Thomaston, April 10.-Passenger train No. 1235 leaving Winsted at 7:20 a. m over the New Haven rail- road for New York city, was partially derailed at Jericho bridge near this city yesterday morning, resulting in the injury of sixteen persons. The baggage car rolled down an embank- ment and the car following was de- railed. None of theinjured is in a serious condition Passengers were transferred at the scene of the wreck, the cause of which has not been de- ternined.
 The train was speeding about thirty-six miles an hour when En- gineer c. H. Holmes of Waterbury saw a switch half open. He applied his air brakes at once, but it was too late. The engine bumped over the rails for about 400 feet and then toppled down a slight embankment, followed by the baggage car. The two coaches immediately following were partly derailed, but the last two cars remained on the track.
 Passengers Thrown About.
 The passengers were thrown about the coaches, but most of the injuries consisted of cuts and abrasions. Phy sicians from Waterbury attended the injured, and all but one were able to go to their homes or continue their journey. Only one person was taken to a hospital, Edward Bossone of Torrington, who has a fractured ankle. The train crew escaped with minor injuries.
 Traffic was blocked for the greater part of the day.
 Among those slightly injured were: Alice McGilvany, Charles Smith, Will liam Segal, Lawrence Fein, Gertrude Rose, all of New York, and Joseph Barton, J. Russell and Samuel La vette, all of Brooklyn, N. Y. After receiving medical attention they left for their homes. The others injured were from nearby towns. Engineer Holmes had fortunate escape from serious harm, being hurled through the window of his cab. He was only slightly cut about the head. The fire ! man was found in the cab uninjured. i!

VETERANS TO COMPOSE TIGER
 TEAM THIS YEAR

THE Detroit team may open the 1916
 playing season with veteran lineup It is quite generally conceded that there are only two positions to be fought @or-namely, right field and first base. Crawford slowed up noticeably in his fielding last year, although he hit well in streaks, and Burns, the regular first baseman, did ROt recover completely from an opera tion for ap- pendicitis during She training season.
 The odds are in favor of the vet erans' retaining their positions, how ever as it is felt that Harry Heilman is the only yOungster who can replace either. Incidentally Heilman, who hit more than 300 with San Francisco last year, has played right field and first base

COULD NOT CONVEY AS
A MINOR.

The Supreme Court of Minneso'
ia recently affirmed the decision OF
Judge Parsons handed down a
year ago in an action entitled
Luck Land Company against &.
J. Minor. ct al. involving a vaIu-
able 80 acre tract of land on the
White Earth Indian Reservation.
1t appears that the facts in the
case we're as follows:
The government issued the In
dian allottee fee simple patent
upon the erroneous conclusion
that he was an adult. The de-
PENDANTS title came from the In
dian, based upon the fee simple
patent, but the deed being actual
ly given while he was minor.
The plaintiff obtained a deed
from the Indian after he became
of age.
The court held, that although
the government recognized him as
an adult mixed blood when it is
sued him a fee patent, yet such
recognition did not give the right
to the Indian to convey his land as
a minor under the state law.
The plaintiff was represented by
Attorneys NJ. A. Spooner, of Be-
midi, and Fred Dennis, of De-
troit, and the defendant by +. A.

LAST WISH OF GREAT ARTIST
Dying Request Of Great Painter Was
for Royal Recognition OF
His Vito.

The only cloud upon the happiness
of Millais was the fact that Lady
Millais-Ruskin's divorced wife
could not be received at court. Queen
Victoria's prejudices were so strong
that she excluded from this honor
ever woman who had been divorced,
no matter for what cause; and Lady
Millais suffered with the rest. Her
husband was tormented by this ex'
clusion, which seemed to him unjus.
In his last days. as he lay dying,
the princess of Wales-now Queen Al
exandra-drove to his house to ask
him about his health. He begged that
he might see her, and she was es'
corted to his studio, where he lay
upon a couch unable to get up. The
princess spoke to him with great cor
diality, and finally. when she rose to
60. she asked:
rs there anything whatever that
can do for you, Sir John?"
EYES," returned the dying man;
there is one thing that your royal
highness can perhaps do for me- II
you will promise it, shall die with
nothing to afflict my mind"
The priacess, somewhat surprised
by his earnest tone, gave him the
promise that he asked.
There is only one thing that l
wish to ASK" said he, land that is
that you will try to have Lady Millais
received at court"
The princess, greatly moved, gave
her promise; and it was not very
long before the widowed woman was
invited to = royal drawing ROOM
