 though Referee Tinted at Draw

The audi torium where the bout was held was filled to capacity. A number of wo men were scattered about the hall
 Ed Smith, the referee, declared he never saw a more aggressive fighter or one who was so willing to mix and carry the fight as was Wilde Smith, however. said he could not render a decision in the affair as un- der the boxing commission rules here it is forbidden to do so- He intimated however, that if a decisoon was rend- cred draw would have been fair verdict Wilde expected to leave here this afternoon for Jersey City,
 Wilde carried the f1gh to Mason throughout the battle. The only round in which Mason could be said to have the advantage was the fifth when Mason took the offensive and made Wilde give ground Mason had a crowd of enthusiasts who urged him to put Wilde away but the Brit isher was so clever that he lodged and feinted until Mason was help less
 Early in the battle Mason started to bleed from the mouth but this did not cause him to lose confidence. Wilde appeared to be in a determined mood He kept right after Mason but as the ring was q feet square the American had plenty of room to run away from the Britisher.

 Ed Smith, a Chicago newspaper man, was the third man in the ring Hughes having objected so strenu- ously to Oliver Pecord, the Toledo Boxing Cornnission's official referee that the promoter and commission agreed to the change SD as to provid. the international attraction Wild drew down $1 0e0 for his end of th' bout while Mason accepted $5,0OO- ,o-~' Mason is Wiide.s senior by tw' years, the Fort Wayne boy being B years old.

Wards Victory Is
 Cause of Tie Among
 Inter-Club Cue Teams

As a result of Ashley WarG's great victory over Jack Ingoldsby of the Bridgeport club in a pocket billiard match last night the Algonquin and Bridgeport clubs are tied for first place in the inter-club standing. Ward, who represents the Masonic club, overcame Ingoldsby's big lead and won by 125 to 117.
 The Bridgeport players needed three victories over the Masonic team last night in order to get ahead of the Algonquins but Wards victory upset things Grindrod, Bridgeport, won from Lockery, Masonic and Sterling, Bridgeport, defeated Won Wagoner, Masonic. The champion ship will be decided next Friday night when the Bridgeport and Algonquin teams meet at the latter club.

New York, March 1S-Georges Car pentier and his blushing bride are scheduled to sail from France some time today and glide over the ocean waves in this direction. When he trots up the gangplank, it will mean that the French war hero and Euro pean champion starts on a road that means millions of francs.
 There isn't the slightest doubt that Carpenter will clean up a sum run ming into six figures. Just at present it is impossible to calculate his prob able earnings for it would make the head swim.
 This means that Carpenter will hit these shores in about eight days, for the naughty steamers doent skim the briny so quickly, as they did years ago. When he arrives he will hasten westward to play a leading character in some cinema engagement. When that is finished Carpenter will loll around and get ready for triumphal tour of the United States and Canada.

New York, March 15-Willie Jack son of this city and Lew Tender of Philadelphia were matched last night by Dave Driscou to box eight rounds at the Arena in the 4th Regiment Armory in Jersey City on Monday, April 5.

 Driscon secured Tenders sigma ture to box f'the best opponent ob- tainable in the lightweight class more than a week ago. At the time the promoter told Phil Glassman, manager of Tender, that the Quaker lads opponent very likely would be the winner of the bout between Jack son and Johnny Dundee, which was held in Jersey City last Monday night Jackson gained the popular decision on that occasion.

FOLWELL SIGNS
 TO COACH NAVY
 FOOTBALL TEAM

Although Hartford has been joke city in the Eastern League since Tom Connery, the present Yankee scout, gave up the management, the Hart ford Courant believes this will be a, great year for Dan Howley's team. The 'Courant also says that the St. Louis Cardinals and the Be stou Braves were after Howley but he was given such a liberal salary by Hart ford that he decided to stick.
 That sounds like the oil to most people but here is what the Courant has to say:
 The St. Louis offer came through Ty Cobb, with whom Howley struck UP a friendship while with the Tigers. This friendship has grown stronger as the seasons have passed and when Cobb learned that the St. Louis Cards were looking for an assistant man ager and coach, he immediately rec commended his diamond pal, Howl ing Dan" The Braves offer also came after Howley had told Clarkm he would manage his ball club this sea- son, the Beantown National League combination wanting Howley as a. coach.
 For couple of weeks. during which the local pilot was considering the big league offers, friends of his who knew of the offers were fearful that Howley would accept, as it meant a chance for further advance
 ment, and possibly the management of the St Louis Cards in another
 season. Cobb wrote the local pilot a, letter soon after he arrived here, explaining that the Cards were after an assistant manager and coach and that he had recommended Howley foz' 1 the position. This letter was followed shortly by an offer from Hickey. It is not known how much the Braves offered Dan to act as coach of tho Beantown outfit but it is known that a very attractive offer was received by St. Louis, an offer, however, that did not exceed in salary the amount that the pepery pilot from East 1 Weymouth, Mass, is receiving from the local team.
 While the exact amount that Howley is hauling down with the l local team cannot be stated, it $ ! doubtful if any manager in the East ern League, despite the class of the 1 pilots that the league boasts of this
 season, is receiving as much as How i ley-and there are many players now | performing in the big leagues who would be willing to swap places with l Daniel as far as salary is concerned.

And as the stage understudy saw chance after chance dwindle bravely choked hack her tears of disappointment and kept on awiting her one big op- Dortunity so Jimmy Murphy had stiff fled his mounting Encouragement Patiently yet nervously he nursed his ~- hope-his prayer-that some day he might be at the wheel and throttle of a spitting, speeding, choking racer Time and time again was he ready 10 IeaL into the drivers seat, only to feel the sting of eleventh houl disappointment.

New York, March 13.---Alfred Go>!- let and Jake Magin increased their point lead over the other siX-day rid CTS in Madison Square Garden last night by winning five out of the ten sprirts for points. As was expected the race has now developed into a duel between this pair and Eddie Madden and the speedy Oscar Egg. When it came to personal tests between Egg and Goullet the latter had the tire D as horsemen might speak of bike speed.
 Every time Goullet and Egg opposed each other in these thrilling battles, there was most desperate sort O. pedalling. but Goullet held the upper hand when it came to speed. He al- ways took the overland route, going around his field from fourth or fifth l position and finishing with an amaz- i ing burst of speed.

This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor

When a doctor uses medicine him
self besides prescribing it to his patients,
he must know that it has merit.
This is what DR.. J. H. Wagner, prom
inent physician of Skate, Kentucky, has
to say about DR.. Hartman's well-known
remedy, PE-RU-NA: 81 have used Pc
RU-NA myself for catarrh and have
given it to others for catarrh, bloating
after eating and other ailments. 1t has
proved a success in all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak
we'll of PE-RU-NA. It is the best Of all
tonics."
DR.. Wagner, out of the fullness Of his
own personal experience, for the good Of
all sick and suffering, recommends a
medicine which he knows to be good.
You nay be sure a doctor would not en-
danger his professional reputation by
endorsing PE-RU-NA unless satisfied be-
yond a doubt Of its value.
Whether your trouble be cough or a
cold or more subtle catarrhal effection
of the stomach, bowels or other organs,
give PE-RU-NA a trial. The immediate
improvement which you will see will sat-
