Is a good excuse TO fire into crowd

ers will all go back to work-with

Gradually Toms counsel bore fruit.
He was able TO make the soberer spir-
its among the strikers listen to him
and so prevent the /. w. w. men,
whom he suspected of being secretly
In the pay Of Ayers, from melting them
to acts OF violence.
Tom decided, too, to adopt an old

note into his pocket one day.

He was not, however, as unknown
as he fondly imagined himself to be.
The spies of Stone and Ayers were all
around, aud some hint of Toms activ-
tiles had already come TO the graft
syndicate. Even before he slipped the
warning note into Ayers pocket there
had been discussions among the chief
grafters as to the best means Of Sc
curing his elimination from the fight.
Tom felt that he was terribly help
less. Above all he needed money, and
he was almost penniless. And then
one day chance brought help to his

round by winning the third by a small
margin.
Coulon once more broke up the
evenness Of the contest when he took
the honors in the fourth round by a
fair margin. His left jabs found
Ritchie's nose often, but the best
punch the former champion landed was
a left uppercut to the body.
After an even fifth and sixth rounds
the former champion made showing
that resembled his former self. He
took the aggressive, scoring several
times with good left jabs and right
swings. The rights, however, were
too high to do any damage, but Cou-
Ions work gave him big lead on
points up to this time.
Clean hitting and plenty of it by
COulon increased his lead, as Ritchies
punches were for the most part mac
curate. Coulon swung a good right to
Ritchie's jaw, which was the best
punch landed in the contest
The margin by which Coulon took
the ninth round wasn't large, but he

VICTORY TO MEAN
MUCH FOR EvERS
Local Bantam May Get Crack at
Johnny ErtIe ii He DispOses of
Burns at Des M0ines.

Eddie Evers has much at stake in
his bout with Bobby Burns of Texas
at Des Moines next Friday night. If
Eddie can hand Burns a trimming he
will be in line for battle with
Johnny Ertle, st. Paul fash and claim
ant to the worlds bantam title, by
virtue Of the foul blow slipped him
by Williams. And this is not mere
talk. Evers met Ertle in st. Louis
and at the time Johnny stated he was
planning on go with Burns or Chic
Hayes in Milwaukee in the near
future, The ST. Paul Pioneer-Press
confirmed this fact in a story in its
issue Of Sunday. In his recent battles
at Des Moines Burns earned a shade
over frankie Sinnet and knocked out
Pete Krust, veteran Chicagoan.
Eddie was deeply disappointed when
his fight with Murphy was called off.
At that he made a decided impression
on the st. Louis fight critics in his
three-round exhibition 60 Mr.. Sharp,
sport writer Of the Post-Dispatch, and
one of the best known boxing authori-
ties in the country, had the following
to say of the local bantam:
"Evers is a rugged boy and two
handed hitter. He has the markings of
top-notcher in his class" 1t is prac
tically certain that Evers will be
given a date at the South Broadway
Athletic club May 6. Eddie is going
through light workouts daily at Cliff
lords gym in preparation for the
burns bout. He is nearly down to
weight and will finish his training
thursday. The local party will leave
1or Des Moines Thursday evening.
