Only Three Indians Rank We'll
In the Trapshooting Fraternity

There was a time when about all
the shooting in this good old U. S. A
was done by Indians. But that was
before your time and mine The In
dian was the pioneer with the bow
and arrow and most redskins were
proficient in this method of shoot
ing. Then came the white man with
shotguns and rifles and since that
time the Indian has been more or
less thrust into the background.
Hundreds of redskins took to the
white mans weapons. but very few
Indians could hit the mark with the
accuracy OF the white man: there
fore. We haven't found many In
dians among the ranks of the trap
shooters. Indians have played glor-
ious parts in baseball. football,
track athletics-not one, but many
but in the shooting game we
know of only three Indians who

George Siler, one OF the greatest
Of American referees, who judged
the Corbett- t-Fitzsimmons fight aud
many other ones, used to tell a
funny story about Jack King. one
Of the greatest heavyweight false
alarms" that ever lived, but who
nevertheless thought he was
wrought in the championship mold.
Here is Jacks alibi, as told Big
Siler, for his quick defeat by Jim
Hall. the famous Australian heavy,
in the fall of 1901, at a show ar
! ranged by Parson Davies in Chi
cago:
Davies was looking about for a
pair of ordinary heavyweight pugs
each to stay four rounds with the
clever Australian. When King
heard of it. he hunted up the Par
son and offered to be one of the op-
ponents of Hall. This was the chance
King had been looking for. and
after being booked, he called on me
and said: George, you of all others,
have doubts of my ability as a fight
er. Today l arranged to go on with
Jim Hall. who. you will admit. is a
pretty good man, but I'll show him

me that he would not go on with

PITTSBURG HOCKEY
STARS CANADIANS

New York. March 7.-Dispatches
from Pittsburg indicate that the
hockey fans In the Smoky City are
excited over the possibility of that
team being barred from competing
under the American colors in the
Olympic hockey games at Antwerp.
It seems that the entire Pitts
burg team is composed of Cana
dians. and that none of the regu-
lars has been naturalized. The Olym-
pic Committee apparently is of the
opinion that il would be a joke
to send a team of Canadians to
Antwerp to compete aS representa-
tives of the United States.
II the Pittsburg team is to be
barred from the Olympic for this
reason. the two other leading hockey
teams of the country-Boston and
Cleveland-will be similarly affect
ed. Canadians compose about 90
per cent of the star hockey play
ers of the world. just as 90 per
cent of star ball players were born
in the United States.

Mcdaniel was so pleased with his
winnings of the Western Handicap
that he contributed $4,000 to the
American Red Cross. 1t is worth
mentioning that Mcdaniel has some
oil wells on his Oklahoma prop
erty. Ha. yes. Little Bear partici-
pates in more shooting tourna-

he is frequently to be found in the
