7. G. Fred Bags, % New York. ae-
complished the object Of his recent trip
20 Bermuda when he won the fourth
annual singles event OF the Hamilton
Hotel Tennis Club. The finals occurred
last Saturday. Baggss victory carries
with it the title OF Bermuda champion
and possession Of the challenge cup for
a year. Fred and Ralph Z. Bags did
a brother act" in taking the mems
doubles.
Manager Raymond l.. Grismer, OF the
University Of Vermont racquet WELD
ers, has evolved this schedule:
May ., Union College, az Science
tady; 3, Colgate, at Hamilton; 4. New
York University, at New York; ,, Ford
ham. at New York: s. Rensselaer, Poly
technic Institute, at Troy; II, Union, at
Burlington; 20, Rensselaer, polytech-
mic Institute. al Burlington.
That is. the team faces the home
folks only twice.
In order 10 put more pepper into the
women's national championships IN sin
giles and doubles, and the mixed dou-
bles title play, the Philadelphia Cricket
Club has applied FOR an additional event
an invitation mems doubles. II is
unlikely that the national association
will refuse the request, and il is prob
able that the best doubles teams OF the
East will compete. June is. however
a little early for the Californisns, who
will hardly be able 10 appear.
In the recent Longwood covered-court
championship at Boston the general
play Of the winner, K. Norris Williams,
Cd, was so speedy that Fred s. Mans

poets the Philsdelphian 70 regain his
national championship honors this year
Williams was off in his ground strokes
against Irving G. Wright in the finals
because he tried 20 drive Wright's cut
stroke with terrific speed In conse-
duence he Melted often. His service was
almost unplayable, and his volleying
was sharper than ever.

MO doubt If The American" sends
~ the Rev. s. Edward Young 10
a horse lace, the reverend gentleman
will inquire innocently: Cannot the
favorite arrange 10 run less fast? A
friend Of mine IS down on the short
end"
In poker game the Rev s. Ed
wards first and farreaching ques-
tion would probably be:
Cannot the boys arrange before
hand 20 have less aces ,"
Again: The Row. s. Edward seems
70 know nothing Of the New York
boxing laws wh ch he is denouncing.
When he asked this very pertinent
question as 70 the possibility Of fix
ing fights he says that his mentor
answered:
ar they tried that this referee
would catch on and stop the game.
The people have paid their money 70
see a fight 20 the finish and won't
stand fer fooling'
"And I recognized the truthfulness
OF this statement" adds Mr.. Young.
The reverend gentleman would have
20 be very farsighted person indeed
10 see q fight TO the finish In this
state The law limits boxing con-
tests 20 ten rounds. There are no
fights 10 A finish.
The Rev s. Edwards quickness 70

the contrary rather spells his credi-
bility as a witness, as our learned
friend, Assistant Attorney General
Obermcler, would say.

den on Friday night, may ARRANGE

an agreement they probably would De

But, then. there Is always the
Boxing Commission standing in the
way OF such an agreement. While It
may sound ethical a. well as prac-
teal 10 Rev. S. Edward Young, the
Boxing Commission would consider
II sordid and commercial.
or course, IL is matter Of debate
as 10 whether the Boying Commission
has ideals or just notions on such
subjects.
Personally. IL it appears that the
men have agreed beforehand not TO
hurt each other oyermuch,' we will
be peeved. The match has the ear
marks Of a battle worth watching,
and VIC hope IL will be.

Heard at the Sign
Of the Cauliflower
By w. o. MCCLELLAN

T FAVE il TO a ministerial mind 70
l. see the commercial side. and the
easiest way. Recently The New
York American detailed the Rev. s.
Edward Young. d. D.. 70 Cover 4
fight al the Vanderbilt A. G., IN
Brooklyn. After the preliminary
bout. TIE Rev. 5. Edward said 10 the
reporter who had accompanied him:
Gould not these two arrange with
each other beforehand not TO inJlre
each other overmuch?'
We are quoting the Rev. s. Ed
ward from his article in The Amerl-
can" under his own signature. ~ ne
reverend gentleman actually saw the
possibilities OF fixing fights all by
himself, and wondered why II had
not occurred 70 the fighters and the
promoters.
OF course-we are sorry 20 admit
it has happened quite often that
two men have arranged with each
other beforehand mot 10 injure each
other overmuch." The last time
shat happened in New York was when
Chip and Clabby fought here. II
was so plain that they had arranged
beforehand mot to injure each other
overmuch" that the referee chased
them out OF tho ring.
We did not find this gem OF the
Rev. 8. Edward Young by Curself.
II was pointed out 10 US first by q
fight fan, who said excitedly:
what do you know about this?
Here's a minister that wants q lot
Of fights fixed"
A little later fgh, promoter re-
marked: "How here's a clergyman
with the right ideal He wants the
boys TO have an understanding 50
that they can get a return match.
That's business, That sky pilots
head is level. What's the use Of a
couple of boys spelling a good match
just TO give the suckers run for
their money? That guy ought 10 be

Bryant Sells Dairy

II. E. Bryant has sold his complete
dairy business and will move to Wy
oming. F. E. Davis is the purchaser
and has already taken charge of the
business.
In the transaction Mr.. Davis takes
over IA head of milk cows and the
dairy equipment, and commenced his
milk deliveries Thursday morning of
this week.
Mr.. Bryant has been a resident of
Ordway for a number of years and
while he regrets to leave this county
he states that he believes that he has
better opportunity where he is go
ing which is near Worland, Wyo., in
the Big Horn Basin country. Land
is not so high there and conditions
for general farming, according to Mr..
Bryant, are good and he will take up
that line of work. He expects to
move within the next month.

Dairy Show at Denver

One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the next annual National
Western Stock Show at Denver, which
opens on January 20, will be full
fedged Dairy Show. The rapid de-
velopment of the dairy industry thru
the Rocky Mountain states has made
this feature of the annual show an
absolute necessity. rhe coming ex-
hibition will be held under the aus
pices of the Colorado State Dairy
mems Association, and will contain
dairy cattle of all the principal breeds
from practically all of the Rocky
Mountain states. A full classification
has been provided, with more than
$1,000 in premiums. The show will
have the support of the principal
breed record associations. and it is
expected that 1t will be OF wonderful
value in the dairy industry of the
West.

Big Realty Deal

Forder-Mr. and Mrs. s. P. Simp-

ings south of the Forder postoffice
to William G. Smith of Dodge City,
Kans. for a consideration up in the
thousands of dollars. There was
time when the people were accustom-
ed to placing value of SO to IS an
acre on this land. but that time is
past and realty holding hereabouts
represents a neat piece of money.
The deal was arranged by John For
rest, who is a relative of the Smith
family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Simpson will remove
to Fowler and spend the winter there.
Mr.. Smith with his family will re-
move from Dodge City about the first
of the year.

to reorganize and administer the de-
partment of mathematics in the I'm
iversity of Hanking. China. according
to a despatch in the daily papers. He
is recipient of the Carnegie retire
ment fund and cannot teach for pay,
hence his work in China will be gratu-
itious. Professor Downey graduated
from Hillsdale college. later was pro-
fessor of mathematics, and then
was professor of mathematics at the
