up long, hard hill to the small log
cabin settlement Of New Salem, I'LL

They halted about noon In the middle
Of this little prairie village, opposite
a small clapboard house. A sign hung
over Its door which bore the rudely
Iettered words: "Rutledge's Tavern"
A long, slim. stoop-shouldered young
man sat In the shade of an oak tree
that stood near corner OF the tavern,
with number OF children playing
around him. He sat leaning against
the tree trunk reading book. He
had risen as they came near and stood
looking at them, with the book under
his arm. Samson says In his diary
that he looked like ian untrimmed
yearling colt about sixteen hands
high. He got up slow and kept rising
till his bush OF black tousled hair was
six feet four above the ground. Then
he put on an old straw hat without
any band on II. He reminded me OF

Carpenter, IN my opinion, will be
the next heavyweight champion Of the
world" said William A. Brady dur
ing a chat the other day. "He surely
will defeat Jack Dempsey in the big
bout on July 2, and II will not surprise
me If he turns the trick in less than
three or four rounds.
Dempsey isn't so formidable as he
was when he won the title from Will

he boxed Brennan In Madison Square
Garden. In the Frenchman he will
meet a wonderful fghter-the greatest
boxer since Jim Corbetts time. Car
