HUMPHREY BROS FIRE


Of HUMPHREY Bros. about three
miles south of town caught fire.
totally consuming an automobile.
COW aud calf, several sets of har-
ness. a set of Navajo blankets
and twenty-six chickens. The
blaze that followed the explosion
Of a large gasoline tank, cast
hideous reflections on the sur
rounding mountains, causing
watchers who were either fortu-
nate or unfortunate enough to
be up at that hour, to imagine
that some prospector had struck
oil and set the we'll afre to boom
the Tularosa Basin.
The fire was TO all appearances
the work of an incendiary, but
as to what the motive could have
been. the police were at a loss to
know, until Saturday morn
ing's mail brought a card to
Detective West bearing the de-
scription of a man dressed partly
in soldiers clothes that had
stolen car at Valmont, N. NJ,
a town near Alamogordo. The
description tailed so closely to
that of a man Mr.. Humphrey
had noticed prowling around his
ranch the day before the fire,
that he al once notified the po-
lice, who found that the man
answering the description of the
car thief, had left town travel
ing in the direction of Ancho.
On receipt Of this information,
Mr.. West telephoned to Deputy
Sheriff Anton Vega, who in com
pany with County Commissioner
Robert Taylor and Bernie Hum.
phrey took a car for Coyote
where they found that the man
of their search had stopped at
that place to water the stolen
car.
They hurried on to Ancho,
where they found that the fel-
low had drained the tank of an
other car in order TO fill the one
he was driving, and was making
all the headway he could for
Gallinas. Deputy Vega over
took and brought his prisoner
back TO Carrizozo where on ex-
animation one of his hands was
found to be badly burned which
cleared up the mystery of the
origin of the fire at the ranch.
The prisoner, who proved to be
h. l.. Garnes, had visited the
Humphrey ranch with the in
tention of stealing gasoline,
with no thought of setting the
place afire, but on attempting to
open the valve of the tank he
struck a match to enable him to
perform the work in better
manner, when the flame ignited
the gasoline around the valve
and THE Balloon Went Up, I"
which accounted for the burned
hand which injury the thief sus-
tanned in making his escape.
The owner of the car. j. L.
Porter was telephoned for and
came in Monday morning to
identify the car, finding that
Garnes had tried to hide the
identity of the car by mutilating
the number on the engine which
was 1888 Garnes claims to
have bought the car, paying the
sum of $3.50 for it in III Paso but
could produce nothing in evil

his order, the prisoner was taken
to Alamogordo where he will be

Duplicate Auction
Has Disappointment
BY r. F. FOSTER.

1t is rather unfortunate that while
duplicate auction is undoubtedly a most
instructive form Of the game, the re-
suits, as shown by the score, are so
largely controlled by the bidding or
playing of the opponents While It is
true that the good players can avoid
losses by their own bidding and play.
they cannot prevent the "gifts' that are
handed out by players at other tables.
To take a common example,; A very
good player picks UP a hand on which
everyone In the room will bid no trumps
At his table there Is no other bid. and
the opponents run on six heart tricks
At another table they bid the hearts.
and the no-trumper shifts to spades and
goes game in that suit. or the hearts
are carried SO far that, they can be
doubled and set.
1t is sometimes interesting to follow
the adventures Of deal from table to
table and note the variations of re-
suits. 1t is not at all common for the
N and partners at one table to score
several hundred plus on a deal ana an
other N and 8 pair to score sewers al
hundred minus on the same cards.
Here Is a specimen OF these varia-
lions. It was deal No. z at the Knick-
erbockers last duplicate game In the old

"PA" COURTNEY Is BACK

ITHACA, n. Y, May 1.-THE present
status Of rowing at Cornell University
will be tested In the varsity and fresh
man races between Cornell and Prince
ton on Cayuga Lake next Saturday, May
"a. as part of the events Of Cornell's
big spring carnival or fete day, Spring
Day. which IL to be revived in all of
its pre- war glory.
The Princeton races will be the only
contests for the ithaca crews this year.
They will provide the only test of the
rowing situation.
As this season is featured by tho re-
turn to active coaching of Charles Z.
Courtney. who at 20 Is the real boss of
the Cornell Navy though in 1916 he re-
tired on account of his health, Cornell
mon the country over attach q senti-
mental significance to this regatta far
beyond Its real value as a sporting event,
Courtney will enter a light, inexperi-
enced crew against Princeton. 1t is the
lightest OF the three varsity combina-
tons he has been trying out for the
ever has taken part in q varsity race,
and only one or two have had expert
ence In freshman shells.
The crew Is a game bunch: what
Courtney likes about them most 10 their
fighting spirit
The varsity also rows smoothly and
seems to have plenty OF drive and punch.
It has the earmarl1s Of a typical Court
ney crew, but the inexperience of the
men gives an air of uncertainty to the
situation that normally is lacking when
Cornell crews row on Cayuga Lake.
Courtney will make no comparisons,
but those close to him believe that ne
is satisfied tha- this eight will come
close to the standards set by Cornell
in the past.
The Old Man ~ awaiting with interest
the verdict of John Collyer. his young
associate coach, who Is due here Mon
Gay to take part in the final tuning up.
There is not much for Collyer to do.
Courtney and John Hoyle have done all
that could be done with the available
material, but the Old Man nevertheless
Is interested In his pupils Impressions
The Cornell varsity eight, which
earned the right to row against Prince
ton by soundly defeating the other two
varsity and tho first freshman eight in
series OF races held during the past
three weeks, is boated as follows:
Bow. c. A. Stott .. l.. NJ. Sheppard:

swain, J. NJ. Metz.
The freshman eight, which will meet
the Tiger youngsters, has beaten all OF
the other Cornell crews except the first
varsity In a majority of the races II
has entered. II is fairly heavy and
powerful for a first year eight and like
the varsity puts up good scrap. This
crew is boated as follows:
Bow, F. L. Burke: 2, II. K Kay; 3.

The most impressive performance by
Jess Willard in a New York ring was
that which he gave in a ten round en-
counter with Luther McCarty in Madi-
son Square Garden on August 10. 1912.
McCsrty. who had developed into a
heavyweight boxer of excellent ability,
was known as the King OF the White
Hopes. he having disposed of a ma
jority Of the Caucasian contenders for
the title then possessed by Jack John
son.
McCarty was as hne a specimen
physically as ever entered a ring, and
he was strong, aggressive boxer.
Willard was in the best condition Of
his life when he stripped for the con-
test with McCarty. He had the tower
ing height and the remarkable reach,
but there was not an ounce of unneces-
sary flesh on his bones His plan OF
battle against McCarty. who was a
rusher and swinger. was well con-
ceIved. Willard simply poked his tele-
scopic left in the McCarty face every
time that young man rushed forward
to the attack.
Willard was very careful not To lay
himself open to a counter. and he did
not use his right more than half a
dozen times in the ten rounds.
Won by q Clear Margin.
As result of these tactics McCarty
had a much puffed and bruised face at
the close Of the last round and had
been thoroughly beaten on points
Willard did not show q mark at tho
end of the encounter and was not
breathing hard. He was criticized for
not making the bout a more interesting
one from the viewpoint OF the onlook-
ers. but he merely smiled and said that
he went into the ring with the object OF
hitting McCarty as many times as pos
sible. and preventing his opponent from
countering He succeeded In the under
taking and was apparently entirely sat
isfied.
There is little doubt that Willard
will attempt to use tho same tactics
with Dempsey that were so successful
In the case OF McCRrty. Dempsey and
McCarty are not unlike each other In
physical dimensions and also in ring
tactics, the difference being that Demp-
sey Is much speedier with hands and
feet than McCarty and hits with greater
force.
The Indications are that II Willard at
tempts to keep Dempsey at bay with a
straight left the fury of the challenger's
attack will compel the champion to
change his tactics and to exchange
thumps with his aggressive adversary.
