Harry Coveleskie, once a great southpaw, is the doubtful man among the veteran twirlers. He was re leased last season but Jennings took him south this spring because Cove leskie insisted that his arm has yielded to medical treatment and has regained it's former strength.
 At the spring camp at Waxahachie, Texas, Jennings tried out large squad of battery men but had com parativeIy few recruit fielders. Of the pitchers. Ericksen, formerly with Detroit and the leading twirler in the Pacific Coast League last year has made the most impressive show ing Einneran, from St. Paul, and Kallion from Des Moines, has great records and Jennings had been i'm pressed by their spring performance es. The rest of the recruit twirlers with the possible exception of Hall from Joplin, Mo, probably will see further service in the minors.
 All of Jennings regulars seem tc have rounded into shape. James who had an cratic season in 1917 and Dauss, who was in poor health part of the campaign, went south early and have done lot of hard work. Roland, Cunningham, Mitchell and the rest of the 1917 staff will go through.

 sent out little story which read in Substance:
 John L. Sullivan is broke"
 The story was true. The mighty warrior who had earned more than a million through his ring and stage endeayor was, to use his own eX pression, flat as a pancake The tremendous fortune which he had ac- cumulated through the years by his pugilistic greatness and for the six teen years that followed, was gone.
 "I spent a million for whiskey' John L. declared at the time.
 There is no doubt that John l.. squandered thousands of dollars in the purchase of liquor, but much of his great fortune was swept away by other extravagances.
 John L. always made the boast that he never would take change. For more than 9 years he kept his resolve. Invariably during the days of his wealth he would walk into barroom, restaurant or some other public place, make a purchase and lay down a $5, $10, $25 or $50 bill and spurn the change. Always John L. would sweep the change to- ward the waiter with Heres some small stuff for you"
 John l.. lost between $25,00 and $1OO 900 during the short period of time that he ventured into racetracks as a "bookie." He made considerable money operating cafes-and he lost lot.
 When John L. had money his friends were welcome to it. And they certainly helped themselves. Hu- man parasites, posing as friends of the champion, went to him often with hard luck stories-and never were they turned down. Just how much John L. gave away, no one knows. But it is certain that the amount went beyond $200,000.
 q lent 5000 and $10,000 to more than one man." John l.. declared. "A lot of others got me for $1,0O0, up to $5000 Rarely a cent of all that I lent out came back to me. l never took a mans note in my life I always felt that if a man wasn't honest enough to pay back a loan that he would be dishonest enough to jump a note.'
 In Purvis, Miss, is an $lS,00O courthouse that stands as monu ment to John L. Sullivan. Here is John Us own story concerning it;
 "They needed a court house in Purvis and had needed it for long time. They couldn't get anybody to dig up the money for it. Then came along and got $1S,000 for whip ping Kilrain and right away the Purvis people put on the screws. l gave up the $fS.000, in one lump and Purvis got it's court house all right"
 Some years ago John L. was asked to submit a list of his earnings. His answer was:
 That's rather hard thing for me to do because I can't recall offhand just how much 1 really did earn. And I never kept any accurate rec ords. However, made a note Of my biggest winnings and also what I got from stage work. Here it is:
 And then John l.. submitted the following. which varies only ln small way from estimates of his earnings:

NOVEMBER BUSY
FOR THE CHARITIES
Influenza Has Added Much
to the Work of the As
ISOLATION.

The Associated Charities has been
unusually busy during the past month
in caring for number Of charity
cases as well as number of influenza
cases. This was made known at the
regular monthly meeting Of the or
gantzatfon held yesterday afternoon
in the City building, ut which time
Miss Margaret Mckinney, the secre-
tary, gave her report for the month.
In addition to rendering financial
assistance to Is needy families dur
ing the month of November, the or
CARNATIONS aided materially with
caring for eight families in the city
in which there was total OF SO cases
Of the Spanish influenza. These were
cases Y here the families were unable
to furnish the proper care and nour-
fshment for the sick. In several cases
nurses were provided for the pauents
and In others food and fuel were pro
vtded by the organization and the caty
Board OF Affairs. Mrs. e. F. Hartley
aided the organization materially in
cadfng for these cases OF the hu.
One peculiarly interesting case
came to the attention Of the Associat-
ed Charities during the month ana
this case was given all the assistance
necessary. It was that Of a native OF
Holland, who came to this. city Few
weeks ago and is now working Off the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad com
pany. The mans wife and three chill
dren arrived shortly after he came 70
Fafrmont, and they were without the
funds necessary to start up a home.
Their case was Brought to the atten-
ton of the organization, with the re-
suit that enough money was advanc-
ed to the man to enable him to FUR
nlsh a sm-n home and to start house
keeping. The woman stated that
food condition. in Holland among
the poorer people were exceedingly
bad and that she brought her family
to America for the reason that they
could not procure the necessary 1000
for their existence. When they ar
rived here their funds were exhaust
ed. The man is steady worker and
males good wages, and promises to
refund~the money advanced by the
organization.
The organization at this time has
about twenty cases OF 'ifu" whfch
they are caring for.
AS the winter approaches the need
for help for many families Is appar-
ent and this need viii Increase as
colder weather comes on.
