QUINTET THE FAVORITE.
Soldier Golfer Picker to Defeat Evans
at Brae Burn Today.

Boston, Oct. 27.-The fact that re-
Gently Champion Chick Evans has
been going badly so far as winning
four-ball matches is concerned, while
Francis Ouimet has had an unbroken
string of victories, including such
formidable opponents as Travers,
Kirkby, Brady and Teller, would in
dictate that the Bostonian will shade
the Chicagoan in confidence if moth
ing else when they meet today at
Brae Burn.
Evans losses were to O'Hara and
Rowe, Pittsburgh, pros. on Oct. 13,
and the next day to Wilbur Cakes,
the pro, and J. D. Standish. Jr.. the
amateur at Detroit In the first de-
feat Evans was partnered by D. p.
Sawyer and in the second by Hugh
Vaughn
If, as some say, confidence Is a
great asset at the opening of a
match, Ouimet ought to have a good
supply Of 1t in view of his victory
last Saturday at Worcester with Jesse
Guilford over the pros, Teller and
Brady. The match was even on the
thirty-sixth hole, but on the thirty
ninth the pros were defeated.

any that has ever been staged in the
Silver city, when on Thursday even
Ing November /. Sammy Waltz of
Hartford and Young Mack of Meriden

engaged in, and a warm argument
Is expected as each has the idea that
he has something on his opponent.
The boys met once before. and the
bout ended in good draw. The
Meriden boy on that occasion sur
prised his followers by his splendid
showing, and there has been a olamor
for a return bout for several months
Young Oscar Gardner of Hartford
and Larry Hanson of New York, have
been signed to meet in the 10 round
semi-final. This bout in itself Is a
star affair." Gardner made his debut
to Meriden fans during the early
summer when he gave battle with
Johnnie Drummie of Waterbury,. He
made an excellent impression. In
tackling Hanson, he is facing tough
two hand miller who knows nothing
but slam bang from bell to bell. Han
sons recent showing against Harry
Gordon stamps him as a coming con-
tender for the lightweight crown.
A likely. pair of bantams will ap-
pear in the curtain raiser of 6 rounds,
when Young" Butch and Jimmy
Sandy, will throw gloves at each other.
Butch is a Meriden product, who is
confident that he will stop the win
ming streak of the New York midget.

WRESTLE TO A DRAW
Ventres- Peterson Match One Of the
Finest Exhibitions Ever Staged in
This City-Benjamin Loses Again.

Alva Ventres of Berlin and A. Pc
terson, champion Of Norway. wrestled
one hour to a draw on the mat in Tur-
ner hall last evening, in one of the
most sensational graphing battles ever
staged in this city, and when the men
shook hands at the close the fans
present accorded them a well deserved
ovation. The youthful Berlinite, as
was the forecast, faced the toughest
opponent of his career, Peterson. hav-
ing several pounds In weight advan-
tage, besides being the possessor of a
vast amount of wrestling knowledge.
To choose between the men would be a
difficult matter, a good draw being
the only verdict that could be given.
At various times during the sixty min
utes that the wrestlers worked, holds
that seemed almos impossible to
break, were secured by each wrestler,
and when they were broken a healthy
cheer was given. While Ventres was
the favorite with the crowd, they were
impartial and gave Peterson a hand
when he earned it. At the close of the
match, each wrestler evinced a desire
to meet in finish bout, and it is
likely that it will be arranged shortly.
A Ventres-Peterson return bout
should pack any hall in this city.

three hours a week to football and

There is one coach, one trainer, no

would it be in keeping with the

HIGGINS SALARY
Sporting World Now Engaged in
Gossiping as to Size of Yearly Stt-
pend of New Yanks Leader.

pend of New Yanks Leader.
New York, Oct, 27.-That Miller
Higgins, the new manager of the
Yankees, will draw a high salary from
his new New York employer was re-
vealed by Branch Hickey, president
of the Cardinals in st. Louis yester-
day when he announced that he had
offered Higgins a salary Of $4,000
a year and 10 per cent. of all profits
in excess of $4,000 if he would re-
main with the st. Louis club next sea-
son.
What Higgins will receive from the
Yankees only he and the Yankee
officials know, but it was a figure
which Hickey was unable to match.
However, there was no doubt that the
st. Louis club and the National League
were anxious to keep Higgins at the
helm of the Cardinals.
While it would appear that Hug
gins's acceptance of Ruppert's terms
was a cold business proposition, one
club outbidding another, it is doubt
full If Higgins would have made the
shift If everything had been harmon
ious between him and Hickey last
season. Higgins let that cat out of
the bag himself when he admitted he
called on Col. Rupert in the middle
Of last season asking If he contem-
plated a managerial shift for 1913.
According to some of Huggins's Ma
uonal League friends, he leaves the
Cardinals with quite a bit of regret.
He took much pride in building up the
present Cardinals, and thinks he would
have been in the race during all of
1918 had he remained with the team.
Higgins and Hickey became at log
gerheads soon after Branch switched
his affiliations from the Browns to
the Cardinals. He made a deal for
Pitcher Goodwin, in which he gave
up several of the Cardinal players
without so much as consulting Hug
gins. While in New York in mid
season Hickey booked a game for the
Cardinals in Jersey City, but Higgins
would not play it. It is believed that
it was on this visit that Higgins made !
his first call on Rupert.

There is an interesting study in the
"church persuasion" of the Billy Sum-
/ day converts in New York Take the
Methodists for instance. The Metho-
dists get along splendidly with
Mr.. Sunday because there is so little
formality about him. Billy hits hard
like Methodist; doesn't mind taking
off his coat and wading into a fight,
and does not shy at the liberal refer
ence ia certain well known place of
extreme heat. You would very nat
urally conclude that the Methodists
would come in for big share of Sun
the Methodists stand third in the list.
The Presbyterians profited most by
the Sunday meetings in New York.
The fact that Sunday himself is a
Presbyterian had nothing to do with
the big rush of trail hitters" to that
church, evidently, for it is doubtful
whether the converts themselves ever
heard what church Sunday affiliates
with. But the big surprise is in the
fact that the Episcopalians are second
in the list. The Episcopalians, ex-
cept in few individual cases, did not
cooperate with the Sunday meetings. /
1t was about the only Protestant Z
church that did not put its official /
signature upon the Sunday revival.
Yet in the matter of converts the
got 1881, the Episco
palians $3.50 and the Methodists 5,917.
rather surprising feature of
the list is the fact that the Catholics
come fourth in the list. While there
IS no conflict between Sunday and the
Catholics, the church did not partici-
pate in his meetings. Yet $500 Cath
,lics were added to that church as a
-esult of the Sunday meetings.

beans and boil them until tender, then
drain and pack them in deep stone
jars in alternate layers with clean
salt using l pint of salt to pints of
beans and making the layers of salt
thick. Place weight on top to keep
the beans under the brine which will
form. Cover the jar with clean mus

When ready to use cover the beans

beans to taste.
