Boxing News and Notes
BY FRED HAWTHORNE

With the boxing game apparently
back on a frmer basis than for several
months owing to the defeat of Gov
ernor Whitman's pet Davis bill for the
repeal of the Frawley law, those who
take their pleasure by watching their
fellow humans thump one another IN
The squared circle are looking hope
fully into the future.
New York City is the most logicaI
spot in the country for the holding OF
bouts between the best men IN the
ring. and Madison Square Garden is
the arena where the bouts should be
staged, if the Garden management was
of the best, which it has not always
! been. -,
That boxing bouts could be held
regularly. successfully and decently IN

"the man who put the Square in Madl,
son Square Garden" Mr.. Wilson acted
as manager of the building for several
months after the New York Life lnsur-
ance Company bought in the property
| little short of remarkable.
For wears the Garden has been tot
.ering on the verge of financial failure.
/ II did not seem possible to make the
| nrcmises Weld even a fair return on
| the capital invested. Business irei-
/ fciencv and petty graft were largely
responsible for this condition OF al
| fairs.
Such was the problem that con-
fronted Wilson when he took charge
but he began a systematic, vacuum
cleaner process that gradually weeded
| out the incompetents and the grafters'
with the result that within few weeks
after the new manager had taken noic
there could be observed slight credie
account on the company's ledger.
Mr.. Wilson put in eighteen hours
/ day at the Garden, overseeing tnou-
sand and one details, and in addition
/ he left standing orders that at any
| hour of the day or night when he was
at home he was to be called to his tele-
/ phone il his presence was demanded at
/ the Square.
Attractions that had been booking at
the Garden for years, such as the
Horse Show, the circus and other an,
nual visitors, were agreeably surprised
at the treatment accorded them by Mr.
Wilson. At last they discovered a
man was In charge whose word could
be absolutely relied upon and whose
employees were quick and ready to rem
der any service required of them.
Week after week the Garden played
TO capacity business and brought In
steady and rising income. Even the
advent OF Grant Hugh Browne and the
Garden Tower Corporation. when es'
saved 10 conduct boxing bouts In the
building, could not affect the hum OF
industry that Wilson had set in mo-
ton.

Chestnut Gelding Proves
Best of Annual Show
Held in Brooklyn

Radiant, W. H. Rhodes sterling
chestnut gelding, captured the Presi-
dents Cup, the chief award in the an
nual show of the Brooklyn Riding and
Driving Club, which came to brilliant
close last night. Radiant defeated
field of fifteen, the pick of the show
and established his supremacy beyond
ali bubble. A. W. Atkinson's Spark
ling Moselle, also a chestnut, was sec
ond. and Allah, the good going gelding
entered by Miss Clara 5. Peck, helped
maintain the glory of the chestnut
tinge by winning third place, Spring
time, a brown mare, was fourth.
Fifteen horses entered the. ring IN
competition for the principal cup OF
the show. After numerous turns OF the
tan bark all but six were waved out OF
the Enclosure, and the judges settled 10
the task of selecting the best: Inc
four named above, along with kNut,
Daniel Guggenheims good performer
and Mary Yandell Fox, owned by MISS
Jean Lister Austin, were left.
The conditions of the cup allow Tor
no guesswork. Every horse must DO
his work. and do il cleverly. II was

lar with the crowd.
Cause for Comment
The critics believed they had cause

Judges in the class for road hacks in
the afternoon judging. Don Quixote,
a spanking big bay, with splendid ac-
ton. good conformation and good ring
manners, was placed fourth, while the
blue went to Big Tree, Of the Little
Farms. Whatever advantage the lat
ter might have held, many believed
that the Don was deserving of higher
rating than he received. Certain II is
Mr.. Donovan's horse did all that was
asked of him, and fenced we'll. Grey
Girl, a slenderly built gray mare from
the stable OF Miss Isabella Wana-
maker, won the red, and Johnny Nc
Kee was ranked third.
There was little real competition in
Class No. Q, for the best registered
hackney stallion, gelding or mare over
fourteen hands two inches shown in
harness. Ideal Matthias. A. w. Akin

way out Of the ring with the blue
ribbon streaming from his head stall,

can Hackney Horse Society in the
hands of mis- dryer. Woodlands MARI

which was efficiency. honesty and intel
ligent administration.
After seeing the circus safely housed
the new manager stepped out of his
executive chair and turned over the
premises to the New York Life lnsur
ance Company. He had demonstrated
that "white elephant" could be taught
to become tractable and a good invest
ment; and, having proved that, Mr.
Wilson returned to his profession o.
electrical engineer.
All this recital of facts is simply "a
show that Madison Square Garden I'M
der the management of a man like Will
son could be made into one of the
greatest Ravens for boxing in the land
and with a competent boxing commits
sion or commissioner in charge of the
sport in the state the glove game
would rise to the solid standing il en-
joys at the National Sporting Club in

HIGH FOOD PRICES
MAY CAUSE PELLAGRA

WASHINGTON, Jan. "a fear that
nigh fufl prices, by unhalancing diets,
may lead 70 n wider prevalence Of prlla-
Era i'll the United States during the COM
ing year Is expressed in n bulletin issued
today by the Public Health Service.
AS a result Of government re-
searches" says the bulletin. 1T was
found that pcllagria is produced by an
Insufficient. ponrly-halnnccd diet. The
application Of This Knowledge reduced
p"lagria during 1916 as compared with
previous years.
1T IS feared. however. that rellagra
may increase In 1917 BY reason Of an in
crease In food cost out Of proportion to
the prosperity now enjoyed BY this
country. The great rise in the cost Of
forage is causing the people in many To-
cal:ties 10 sell their COWS and THUS there
Is danger that they will deprive them
selves OF milk. one Of the most valuable
pellagra preventing foods. The high
cost OF living has further served to
bring about reduction in many famI-
lies in the amount Of meats. eggs. hcans
and peas. all Of which ar" pclaEra-prO-
phylactlcS.
In erfectinE economics the public
should bear in mind tho importance Of Il
properly Oa lance0 diet"

Of exalted rank and a well known for

The general assumption in the sto-
ries is that RaSputin was murdered
and some Of the accounts say unquall'

Afterwards the police heard shots
and cries coming from the palace
garden. Fastening there to make IN
Uuiries they saw blood on the snow
in the garden and were shown the
carcass OF 4 dog. which they were told
had been shot because it was mad.

discovery of Il freshly made hole in
