GEORGES HAS FINAL WORKOUT M PUBLIC
 BEFORE BIG BATTLE
Carpenter Floors Three Sparring Partners in Heavy
 Session in Ring

Manhassett, N. T., June 2s.-Loos- ening up a wee bit in what was announced as his last public work out before his fight with Dempsey, Georges Carpenter floored three sparring partners this afternoon.
 The largest crowd that has yet at tended a workout here gathered early on the front lawn. There were nu- merous faces well known in the sporting and theatrical world and several Frenchmen who comprise the advance guard of more than 100 who are coming from Georges native land to see the fight
 The challenger was busy shaking hands until long after o'clock and appeared in the gymnasium at S:S5 o'clock. Tarrying only short time at the bags he vaulted into the ring and said: Let's gon"
 Three New Trainers
 Three new sparring partners ap- peared, two of whom were said to have taken part in the mystery workout behind the barn. yesterday morning. First was Dave Rose. a weiterweight from Brooklyn. He be- came too bold and waded into Car pentier. He was sent to the floor with right hook after half a min ute of fighting. Georges permitted him to come back, then punished him some more.
 For the second round appeared Dave Rosenberg. the middleweigEt | who lost the decision in a 12-round bout with Mike Gibbons in Brooklyn on May 30 Rosenberg's Jaw felt the challenger's right and he fell heavily to the ring floor. Carpenter assist ed him to his feet then started both hands working to his jaw and body. He had Rosenberg so groggy that Manager Deseamps called a halt.
 "Doucement doucement.' shouted Descamp, which in good old Amer ican means "easy, easy"
 Carpenter smiled and obeyed.
 His Last Victim
 After Rosenberg, Chris Arnold, a light heavyweight jumped through the ropes. Chris was mark for the Frencnman and caved in under his right on two occasions. He appar- ently was knocked out the last time but Carpenter held him up for the rest of the round Arnold was bleed. ing at the nose and mouth and Joe Jeanette was called to replace him. Joe and Georges boxed tamely for IOuIu anu the WOrkOut was over. Then Manager Descamps announced through one of the newspapermen present that the gates would bs closed to all until after July 2.
 Manager Descamps wishes to say that his fighter is making today his last public appearance before July 2. He does not wish to offend the American public and wants them to know that both he and Carpenter appreciate the kindness and good will shown by all alike. Things will happen, however, in the next week that would not be good for the enemy camp to learn, and Manager Descamps will not take any chances"
 Georges is Curious
 Carpenter evinced a great deal of interest in remarks made by those at the ringside. While he was boxing with Rosenberg some one called the latter's name and remarked, that he had once been a leading amateur. Georges did not understand and evil dently thought that the remark con cerned him and asked Trainer Will son to translate. Wilson told him what had been said and he smiled re- marking:
 q like to know everything that is said"

down periods in this life.
 He give Carl Morris the anes- thetic wallop. He put Miskes to sleep. He made a U-boat out of Gunboat Smith. Despite the doc tors advice that Fred Fulton's jaw wasn't strong enough for him to chew plug cut on Fred was foolish enough to get in the ring with Jack and Jack made mems meat out Of Fred's face. He was stepping along in high until 1t was announced that he would come in contract with Jes- sic Willard. Jessie was cham peen and was such a corn-f fed that nobody figured Jack could get him off his feet unless he lacked him up. and then pushed him off balance.
 What happened at Toledo7 That Is profane history by now. Jessie went into the ring by his self, but he had to be carried out on stretcher. Jack landed one to Jessie's chassis, and then come back with one to the jaw. Jessie spent the rest of his time en route to and from the floor until his second had a happy idea to throw in the sponge. Jessie has that memorious fight trying to find out what and the Helen Tom Walker become of the sponge

tier abode, and Carp. as a kid, kept bowling within. As soon as he got big enough. though, he stepped outn the house and bumped the old wolf off, and as he scaled the heights to fame his fokes contracted case of am nesia and forgot all about pow erty. You might say the same thing happened to Demp, too, though it took Jacques longer to learn that a feller could make more money by not working than he could by putting his nose to the grindstone. Jack was born tired, and couldn't see no system to working ones life away. Even in the early days of his kidhood the neighbors realized that the only way Jack would ever get horny-handed would be from playing the tuba in the town band, or something. Keeping aioof from exertion got to be a abcession with him, and when he got to growing into manhood he decided the only way to eat and live without working was to turn into hobo. That's the reason many got the idea that Jack was originally borned in Hoboken, N. J.
 Later. however, Jack conceived the idea that one didn't have to wear bum clothes even if one was bum, so he got In the box ing game. And that's how come Jack and Georges to be such men of affluence and influence today, When many a man gets in jail for knocking some guy for near-corpse, Jack and Georges learned how to get in clover by doing the same thing. Then riches started rolling in, and each told his fokes to get out of the mining camps before some mine mule kicked em for 8 row of tombstones.
 It's right funny how all great men started life in such a humble way. Abe Lincoln split rails and Mrs. F. D. E. N Southworth split inhnitives when they was growing up They was even a time in MT Ponzi's kidhood when he had to smoke twofers.
 Carp got to fighting long be- fore Demp, however This here Deschamps seen when Carp was only is years of old that he had clever pair of lunch hooks, what could earn lunch for both of em. Carp was only a phantom weight when he started, but he growed and expanded into a heavyweight, and finally he met Joe Beckett. Joe, who ain't never been mad with nobody. was sing Ing Leaning on tn Everlasting Arms when he got in the ring with Carp, but Georges showed him out of the clinch, and Joe flopped to the floor with B deep dull thud That give Carp tho champeenship of Europe.
 And while Carp was winning laurcls on foreign soil, Jack was making his way to the title in America. Jack, as usual, though, had clang to hts childhood char acteristics in wanting to do as little as possible in as short a time as possible. Where Georges would string his flsticuffs over i2 rounds before he strung friend enemy over the floor, Jack would get in there and get the thing over with in one round He fig ured this give him more setting

Jack Punches Bag Before Crowd of Thousand-Is
 26 Years Old Today

Atlantic City. June 25.---After plans had been made today to have Jack Dempsey lay off, an announcement was made that the public would De admitted to the camp, and the worlds heavyweight champion was com clothes this afternoon to satisfy crowd of about one thousand persons who were anxious to pay 50 cents to see Dempsey whale the punching bags for thirty minutes.
 Looks like you'll have to work bit after all." said Jack Kearns. man ager of the champion, when he saw the crowd come about the entrance to the big flying field. Dempsey was routed off his front porch to display his bag punching ability in the en- closed hangar back of the camp.
 Jack's Famous Shift
 Dempsey exhibited his famous shift and other blows on the inflated bag for four three minute rounds and then hoped into the ring for a two round session with the sixty pound felt-stuffed bag suspended from ra,- ters in the center of the ring. He pounded the swinging target for six minutes with astonishing power, sending it flying back six or seven feet with wicked straight lefts and rights. He wound up by taking some bending exercises and other calls thenics. The workout was vigorous and satisfactory to the big crowd
 Manager Kearns announced tonight that Kid Norfolk, the negro light heavyweight. and other sparring partners expected in camp to assist getting Dempsey into a fine fighting edge would not be needed. Dempsey had progressed so rapidly in his training, Kearns said, that he will be- gin to taper off next week instead of continuing hard work with the gloves.
 Jack Is 26 Today
 Tomorrow. Dempsey will celebrate his twenty-sixth birthday with complete rest He will box Satur- day and Sunday. and then only ex- hibit himself in light workout on Monday. He will take his final work outs with the gloves on Tuesday and Wednesday. Just enough exercises to loosen up his muscles will be taken on Thursday. The champion will not do any training on Friday.
 We will move over to Jersey City Friday night to tag the Frenchmau Saturday" Kearns added. Plans to give Dempsey a demonstration when he leaves here a week from tomorrow were laid aside tonight when mana ger Kearns told friends of the champ ion that he wanted the departure as quiet as possible. Dempsey will be hurried to private residence in Jer- sey City to rest in seclusion until time to go to the arena.

MOLEY'S MEN TO
 OPEN SERIES IN
 W. o. SATURDAY
John Dewey Morrison Makes Great Showing in Debut
 With Pirates
By MARVIN MCCARTHY

In the midst of winning streak, while pennant scrapping is hottest, the rest afforded the Barons today, no game being scheduled, will not be unwelcome in the Moleyian camp, for, in addition to the heaviness of the schedule of late, two of the Baron pitchers are on the injured list and the burden, for the present, at least, must fall on the shoulders of three regular hurlers and a new recruit, one R. R. Nichols, big south paw, signed by Manager Moles- worth day or so ago.
 The team will probably stop over in Birmingham today, leaving to- night for New Orleans, where a cou- pie of games will be played satur- day and Sunday After the short series in Peltown. the Barons hop back to Mobile for four games, but not before they enjoy another day of rest, next Monday. June 27, when a game was not schedule for the Slag- town outfit.
 Win II Out of IF Games
 After winning six straight last week, the Barons lost a game to Att lanta, and immediately inaugurated another winning streak, cashing in five consecutive victories to date, making 1t II wins of their last 12 en- counters. a record little of sensation al, especially when one considers the crippled condition of the pitching staff. Moley's men have been work ing under a terrific strain lately, and the two days of rest, today and Mon day, will go long ways towards smoothing over the places where the going is rough.
 Traynor Going Great
 Pie Traynor, dashing shortstop of the Barons, has helped out consid- erably in the winning drive inaugu- rated by Moley's men. Pies big bludgeon has been chashing out safe bingles right along, he getting four clean singles out of five times at bat yesterday. In addition, with one ex- ception, the big shortsmith of the Barons has been playing 8 stellar game afieId. He had one bad game in Chattanooga, but in the other three encounters he has been setting terrific pace for other league short stops to envy.

REPORTS CROSSED, DUMMY WASN'T STOPPED AT ALL

Reports in the Magic City to the effect that Dummy Harrington was stepped by Larry Avera in Atlanta Tuesday night are not correct, ac- cording to Tommy Tompkins. Dum- my's manager.
 Tn a letter to the sporting editor of The Age Herald. Tommy Tomp- kins states that it was a disagree ment over terms with the promoter of the bout that caused him to with draw his scrapper after the sixth round.
 Tt was a deplorable affair" writes Tommy. ''One that tends to give boxing a black eye. In giving Bar rsrgton his due, I must say that it was no superiority of Avera over him or any beating that he was talk ing that caused me to stop the fight.
 The Atlanta promoter was giving Mummy a bad deal, and felt duty bound to stop the affair. That's all there was to it."

lGNOHE PARTISAN AIMS To
GET SOMETHING ON WILSON

1t Is high time our congressional
black k-handers were given TO under
stand that there are many things
they are expected to do of infinitely
more worth to the country and hu-
manity in general than the ignoble
aim Of getting something" on Pres
Ident Wilson and his administration.
Voters with memories will recall the
great promises by the party respon-
sible for the present congress in the
campaign of 1918. Stupendous prob
lens OF reconstruction were TO be
met and solved at the end of the
war, We were told, and their party
was the only party capable of UNDER
taking such herculean task. One
would have thought, had he known
the party's past delinquences, that
they had already mapped out "A col
ossal scheme OF reconstruction and
were only waiting to be entrusted
with power To put II into effect. The
whole stricken world would be set
right in jifry under the egis Of the
q. .. +. we were to believe. The
country took their fair and roseate
promises seriously, and with the aid
of the Stacker vote and the pro-Ger-
man vote Democratic congress was
turned out and Republican con-
gress installed in its place.
Two years have intervened. and
what have we seen accomplished in
the way of constructive reform?
Briefly. railway act that does not
function successfully, pop-gun tariff
measure to fool the unthnking farm
ers, and the wrecking of the League
of Nations plan, which IL the great
est constructive measure OF modern
times, If not for all time. This *
the great achievement of the G. O.
+. congress up To date. Instead of
going soberly and sanely to the task
OF reconstruct1ng waF-shattered
world, they have frittered away two
years IN a mean, partisan effort to
suliy and begrime their country's ac-
hievements for no better reason than
the fact that the war was waged TO
victorious end BY a president who
happened TO be a Democrat in poll
tics. Under the sinister leadership
of senator Lodge, who has distin-
guished himself IN congress without
a single constructive measure of ma
tional scope to his credit, the Repub-
licans in Congress have sought as
siduously to bedaub the country
record with partisan mud to the end
that President WILSON, prestige
might be destroyed regardless OF the
consequences to the peace and safe
t. Of the world or the honor and fair
name We bore among the nations.
And when oar great president lay
proa rate in the White House, VIC
tim Of the congressional cabal, the
campaign Of SANDER and abuse was
carried on with a fury Of desperation
unparalleled in the national annals Of
the nation. No ealuuny was too
gross to find sponsors in the halls of
congress, no rumor so absurd that il
did not receive ereslence from sena-
tors who would have scorned such
absurdities az beneath their notice
IN the ordinary walks of life.

Threatened Montana Quarantine


Facts have been gathered for use
by the Lemhi delegation who are to
visit Montana In behalf of shutting
on the operation of the threatened
quarantine againss ftaho products
and livestock, which il Is feared
might be disastrous to the marketing
of Lemhi products. The delegation
will be at the Montana state capital
next week.
Cashier Emerson Hill of the pio-
neer bank has written to the COVER
nor and other state officials 81 Mon
tana advising Them as TO the effects Of
the threatened quarantine serving as
II would to bar the products OF lem
n county indiscriminately along with
those of the rest Of this state when
there would seem to be no occasion
Tor such drastic action. It was point
cd out that Lemhi county holds lit
tie II any communication In matters
OF trade in commodities with any
ether part of Idaho, while its re-
lations are almost wholly with Mon
tana IN the interchange Of commod-
ities. There are no diseased animals
or bad products of AIRY sort to occa-
sion quarantine from Montana as
to this county. The fact that Mr..
Hill formerly resided in Montana.
where he Is we'll known. gives i'm.
portance to Montanans ms to what he
has to say to them on this important
subject. In this connection il il re-
called that few years ago he was
enabled 10 reopen trade relations
and get by IA livestock quarantine
that gave much anxiety to cattle men
