 Dempsey's training quarters are To- cated about mile from the city cen- ter. While he has been doing little training it has been of the very light order. He will not settle down to actual work until next week. Per sonally, DeForest Is of the opinion that the Frisco lum!nary could lick Willard today as the challenger really does seem to be in best possible physi- cal condition.

 Dave spent several days in Toledo and from what the writer has heard and gathered from authentic sources he made a very favorable impression. Particularly pleased with Fitzgerald is Tex Rickard. who is promoting the affair. Tex and Dave had mover met before the other night In tn- troducinE Dave to the big promoter. Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey. characterized him as the "only man physically competent to referee the bout and the best referee Tn the east"

 Happy" Jack Shellin of Bridgeport will not supervise the erection of the arena or the laying out of seats. An nouncement by RiciGard made today when asked about Jack by the writer. Tex said that Happy notified him earlier in the week that he could not spare the time to come here. The call of the white tops was too much for him. for Jack had gone again on the road as general superintendent of Q show playing the Middle West. Any way, that's what he told Rlckard in a letter but the main point Is that Happy Jack will have nothing to do with the staging of this battle.
 MAY ARCHER, who Is representing Il Jess Willard. said today the cham pion will be in town tomorrow or early Monday morning. Jess was reported having left Los Angeles today and if he makes the connections he should be here Sunday. With Willard will come Jack Hempel and Chadley Mill Ter, both fluskies.

With the four-day jaunt of the Americans at an end with today game, local baseball enthusiasts are dolling up for the second Sunday game at Newfield Park tomorrow afternoon. The Briigeporters will have as opponents good old Danny Murphy's Senators from Hartford.
 It's been a long time since local fans had a glimpse of the old Athletic star and his appearance will be the means of attracting no few fans to the popular Newfield gardens. Dan is perhaps one of the most prominent retired major league player in this country today. His record with the majors was one that is envied by players.
 What Danny can accomplish as manager is son,ething in which not only Hartford fans, but enthusiasts ed for the very good reason that Murphy is himself a native of this State. His rise in the baseball lad der was indeed a rapid one.
 The Hartford aggregation is one that must not be under-estimated for on it's roster are no few veterans. who are not only dangerous, but know the ins and outs of the game as few on the O'Neil circuit know it. Just who Murphy will use against the locals is problematical, but he appreciates the strength of the Americans and for that reason one Of his better hUrlers can be depended upon to show. The game will start promptly at 3:30 o'clock.

This determination to inaugurate the league was
arrived at probably long as week ago when after

was stated from Paris that the machinery for the
League would be set in motion without participation

GARAGES A NUISANCE?
BY Richard spane, Americas Foremost Writer on
Finance Business and Economics, and Special
Contributor to the N. E. A.


In the court of common pleas in Philadelphia
Justice Barratt has laid down the principle that
garages are in a sense nuisance just as saloons
were and they must be restricted for the public
good.

plcation for an injunction to prevent the building
of a garage at Ludlow and Sixty first street.
Garages must be regulated" said the justice

and garages are necessary provisions for them, but
owners of machines do not seem to recognize the
rights of other people. The toll of killed and an
jured mounts each year. The automobiles gives to
the person afoot little consideration. He runs into

why didn't you get out Of the way?" although the
man in the car has borne down upon the innocent
citizen without blow of horn warning shout.
Public opinion is greater force than autofno-
biists appreciate Uublic opinion will expel the auto
from many city thoroughfares and possibly some in
country too if regard is not shown for human
life and limb At the rate kill and MAIN with the
auto we soon will approach the total of losses
in France in the war"
Then the judge pronounced the garage under
certain conditions a nuisance, but this did not
