Fulton's jaw the other evening in Har-
rison Park he fondly believed that he
mad stepped on the escalator that was
gong to carry him right to the TOP of
the pugilstlc ladder, but the works be-
came jammed, or the escalator didn't
have on it's anti-skid chains, or some
thing, and Jacks troubles were onlv
beginning.
The conqueror of "Ferocious" had
clean gone and forgot about his former
little chum and trench bunkie, John
Barber" Reisler, X. c. B. (Knight
Commander of the Brush), who once
upon a time used to manage Jacks
affairs and held a long time contract
with him.
On the day Dempsey and Fulton had
their little twenty three second cut
up in the Harrison Park ring the "Bar-
ber" went through the audience point
ing a finger at every seat holder in
turn and saying: "Eenie, meenie, miny,
moe. Jack and will split the dough-"
and when they were counting up in the
box office afterward John the B. was
right at Jacks elbow with a large mar
ket basket waiting to tote away his
share of the green goods
But Jack only said "Shush!" at the
barber and went away from there, and
the money toddled right along with
him.
Was our noble swashbuckler of the
suds bowl and the talcum can taken
aback, was he nonplussed, was he
stumped? Not he. John the B. simply
selected one of his assorted series Of
court injunctions from his wallet and
passed it under Dempsey's nose and
the next day Jack was saying, Goo
mornin', judge" and explaining how
it was that the Good Barber had be-
gun suit for 100000 "for pecuniarv
damages and mental anguish"
knowing the croo-el heart of John
the Barber. we predict that he will
continue to trail poor Jack Dempsey
until Jack says "hfty-ffty," and acts
that way.
"Hey! Skinnay, c'mon over! Bic
fight tween an lrisher and a Iniun'
Run like ever'thing!"

Then Help Shut
Out Dodgers
Neale and Magee Swap
Blows-Wheat Sets
Season 8 Record

The Dodgers struck an awful snag In
Mike Regan yesterday afternoon. for
nary run did Mike allow Robbie's
men in the nine innings played between
the Reds and Brooklyn under the tropic
sun of Flatbush. The Reds, for their
part, had no trouble with the pitching
of Dick Robertson and Larry Cheney,
and amassed a total of five runs.
Zach Wheat was perfectly satisfied
with his days work, even though his
team lost. for Zach kept up his con-
tinuous string of hitting until now
he has gone through twenty-four games
without missing a single bingle. This
run of Wheat's establishes a record for
the season.
Those fans who happened to gather
in time for the warming up mannuvres
forgot the heat for few moments
while Neale and Magee indulged in a
fist fight in front Of the Cincinnati
bench. Neale was standing in left field
when Magee threw a ball from the
bench to that particular territory.

the ball in order to give him little
exercise in the heat, and rushed to the
bench and grabbed Magee. The two
players clnched, and then, breaking
loose, Magee sent Neale sprawling with
right hook to the jaw. Magee was
considerate enough to let Neale get to
his feet, whereupon the latter aimed
right hook of his own at Magee's jaw
and Lee went down.
While Magee lay on the ground
Neale kept on slugging until other
Red players stopped the fray. Both
men were in the game, so it is pre-
sumed that the damage wrought was
not serious. Manager Matty was not
on the grounds.
The Reds Tailed their first run in
the second on Neale's triple, a pass to
Griffith, and double steal worked by
the two. They added another in the
following inning on Regan's single to
centre, and doubles by Magee and
Roush. In the sixth the visitors added
another counter on Roush's single,
bunt by Chase and safe hit by Cueto.
Wingo's triple and Groh's infied out
tailed another run for the Reds in
the seventh. The last run for the in
vaders came in the ninth on Regan's
single, wild pitch and Magee's single
to centre.

Freight Wreck
AT Carriers This
Afternoon; Two
Men Injured

This afternoon about two o'clock
two freight trains went together at
Carriers. six miles east of Lakeland.
One brakeman and a fireman were
injured, and a physician was called to
the scene from this city. No par
ticulars are available, as Carriers is
on the Jacksonville Division and the
local superintendent Office did not
have a record of the trains or their
crews. The track is torn up for a
considerable distance, and as a result
the Tampa Special, southbound, is be-
ing held there. Tampa Special No.

before the collision occurred. The
wrecker went out from here to clear
the tracks.

Mr.. R|SBFCK SENDS
LAKELAND ORANGES
TO M0OSfHAR7

A shipment of fruit with story
went out today when National Direc-
tor John H. Risbeck of the Loyal Or
der of Moose, shipped a wagon load
OF fruit from his grove on East Lime
Street to Mooseheart, the home and
school for orphans and widows of
Moose 80 miles west of Chicago.
When National Director Risbeck
last visited Mooseheart he told the
children at their daily assembly that
as soon as he got to his Lakeland
home he intended to send them some
fruit An orange is treat in I'LL
nois, to a child, just as it is in Flor
ida, for surely oranges are the chill
dren's fruit.
The assembly at Mooseheart is diff
ierent from any other gathering in
the world, Here the five hundred
children of Mooseheart gather every
afternoon. They are divided into
two groups. The children under ten
form the junior assembly and meet
from 4 to 5. Those over ten form
the senior assembly and meet from 5
to 6, At the senior assembly the
Mooseheart boys band furnishes
music each day. The assembly is
conducted just like a parliamentary
meeting, and every child has a
voice. Questions of discipline and
other matters are decided by vote.
Discipline is administered by demer-
its, and at the assembly the child
arises when his group is called for
it's report and reports his demerit,
the cause for which given and the
matron, teacher or proctor who gave
it. He is also heard if he believes 1t
was unjust and vote of the assem-
bly, decides. Good behavior for five
days removes his dement's II he re-
ceives five he must stand during as
sembly on the demerit line which is
where everyone present can witness
his disgrace.
Mr.. Risbeck has decided not to sell
his fruit, and will ship all of his many
boxes of oranges, grapefruits, and
, tangerines to various charities in
which he is interested in the North.
He is a contributorto the Parting of
