HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY, DECEMBER al. 1920

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 81, 1920, y
copyright. 1890 by the Mcclure News
paper Syndicate.)
This last day of the year is subject
astrology, but 1t ends a twelve months
Of such unusual events that It is we'll
all the sinister forces thus culminate
before the new year.
saturn, Neptune and Mercury are all
IN maleftc aspect, Saturn ruling the
evening as well as the morning hours
with evil power.
The principal influence Is likely to
be one OF depression and regret over
the past, but this should be eombated
and overcome,
The planet supposed to rule accounts
y In sinister sway, forecasting only
Computations made during this con-
figuration may stress losses more than
profits, but this tendency must be-
largely imputed to the Influence OF
Saturn in evil place.
Letters sent out. today should be
watched with care, for they may reflect
the, unhappy mood which Is destructive
rather than constructive.
1t is a time to hesitate over invest
ments that promise wealth from nat
ural resources. Speculation in coal or
oil will not be profitable while this
government of tho stars prevails.
Real estate, also. Is under an ILL
omened star. and it is well not 10 take
any chances in buying until the planets
give better guidance.
Women run great risk in any love
affair that makes today focal date,
1t is an unlucky wedding day.
Although the stars NAV not smile
on the earth today, they win give fair
hope for the new year, which is to be
much better than the cd year.
One of the representations for Ias !,
is a general spiritual awakening tina
will be revealed in literature and art as
well as in the churches.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is may
have an eventful year. They should
be careful Of letters and writings. Busi-
ness may be very strenuous,
Children born on this day may be ex-
ceedingly individual and talented. They
should. be carefully trained, for they
have great possibilities.

 Gets Advance Offer
 With the announcement that Steve Dalton had accepted the date with Woods, the Vernon Athletic club gave out word that if Woods wins over Dalton it will give him $500 and ex- pense5 for himself and manager for his first appearance on the coast.
 Dalton Is Ready
 Dalton, who will arrive here to- morrow with Mansell and his man. ager, is said by Manager French to be in the best of condition and ready 10 step the moment he gets off the train.
 Stretches Second Go
 That the card will lose nothing by | the substitution, although the opin' ion Of fandom was yesterday that the card has really gained through the i coming of Dalton, French has length ened the fight between Ralph Lin | coin and Harry Mansell to ten rounds, making the card one with | two main events. Mansell is recog' nized by the sporting writers of the country as one of the shining lights | of the boxing world. Born in Eng 1 land, he entered the ring when ne was i2 years old, and has engaged in more than 300 fights. He is now ] 23. After II years of fighting | throughout Europe he has not sin 1 gle mark on his face, and is describ- ed in every account of his ability as ] one of the fastest, as well as the best defensive fighters living. Before coming to the Warren District he had an uninterrupted string of Is wins in Seattle. He lost the bantamweight title of England to Jimmy Wilde, the British whirlwind, after 20 rounds in London last February. His last Flu ropean fight was with Gloria French bantamweight, last March, whom he knocked out in six round at Paris. Lincoln, his opponent, recognizes that in going up againt man Of the international reputation possessed by Mansell he is getting the opportunity of his career, and he is leaving noth- ing undone in the way of preparation for him.

PALMER SHOWS WHITE FEATHER AND STEVE DALTON WILL MEET
 HAPPY WOODS IN B|SbEE RING
Disguised Manager of Kid Palmer says Boxer Has Cold Feet and Is Afraid of Tucson Boy; Makes Caulfower Ear Excuse for Forfeiting Match; Mansell-I- lincoln
 Go Is Stretched to Ten Rounds

Kid Palmer, who vas scheduled to auspices of the Bisbee Athletic club on July 5, has refused to fight the Tucson boilermaker. Alleging that a cauliflower ear needing medical care has kept him from carrying out his contract, he has given definite the club, that he will not enter the squared circle with Woods until some hazy, distant date. In his place, Steve Dalton, the best known and most popular of the Pacific coast welterweights, will appear in the main event.
 Signs Dalton
 Palmer's refusal, which has been the cause of much adverse criticism throughout the state, came as a com plete surprise to Manager French. When notified by Clyde Branum, Palmer's manager, French hurried to Los Angeles, where he had person al interview with Palmer, who held to his refusal so pertinaciously that French, at an increased expense and after culling over carefully the list of the best welterweights of the coast, succeeded in signing a con tract with Dalton. Despite the in- creased cost of the new bout, plus the necessary expenses of a trip to the coast, Manager French will give the fans of tue Warren district, and, indeed, the fans of the state, the best card on July to De shown in the history of boxing in Arizona.
 French returned yesterday from Los Angeles with the detailed story of the Palmer fiasco. Instead, how, ever, of giving to the press his own ideas of the forfeited match, the fol lowing letter from Branum, who has refused any longer to manage Pal mer, is published just as it was re- ceived:
 q am writing you tonight as Pal | mer has informed me a few minutes ago that he was not going to take the fight with Happy Woods on July 5 He got his ear hurt again last Tuesday night. He has been going to a doctor every day, but it doesn seem to get any better. l did every thing in my power to get him to take this fight. still he. refuses. Please don't blame me, French. have certainly put up with a lot with Palmer I am through with him for good this time.
 Has "Cold Feet"
 If you can use substitute, I can get you Steve Dalton, lilly Her man or Salinas Jack Robertson. You might give it out that he refused sto take the fight on account of his ear, but my opinion is that he has got cold feet. I will back up everything I say. You may give this letter to the papers if you wish.
 'I certainly am disgusted with Pal mer. But you have had some expe- rience with him and you know how

same standard as the two main events. Kid Hartman and Young Queeuo will put up as good a fight as any fan would want to see, while Battling Herrera and Kid Sheldon are both toe-to-toe fighters who will open the card with whirlwind ex- hibition.
 Happy Woods and his manager, Earl Mohan, will arrive here today, and Happy will start his training i'm mediately at the Hermitage gymnas- ium in Brewery Gulch Steve Dal- ton and Mansell will be here tomor- TOW. They also will train at the Hermitage.

 St. Louis Victory

CINCINNATI, June 26. - St. Lotus went into second place in the na- tional league race today by winning both games of double header from the champions. Both teams played perfect bah in the field but the hit ting of the visitors was much more effective that the Reds. In the Sth inning of the second game Pitcher I,uaue of the Reds attacked Umpire Klem and dealt him several hard blows about the head. Luque claims it was due to viscious language used by the official Luque and catcher Allen of the Reds both made afff- .lavits that Klem had used such Ian euage. If the claims are proved the club will bring charges against Klem. Luque was put out of the game and Filler finished it. Previous to this incident a shower of pop bot ties fell around Xlem when he called Fournier safe at the plate in the 9th inning. Wingo was put out of the game at this time for abusive Ian guage.
