RICHARD RECEIVES MORE OFFERS FOR CHAMPIONSHIP GO
Nevada Silver Camp and Lon don Bid for TituIar
 Scrap

New York, March 2s.-Two new of- fers of sites for the Dempsey -Carpep- tier heavyweight champio nship were made to Promoter Tex Rickard today. One came from Nevada silver camp and guaranteed the pugilistic im- pressraio the sum of sS00,0O0 If he would stage the contest there July 4. The other was presented by represen- tatives of London syndicate and in- cluded s500,000 offer for the bout fl IL could be held in the Oylmpia during derby week
 Rickard took the offers under con- sideration and said that a final de- cision might be expected during the present week unless untowatd circum- stances arose to delay his selection of the place of battle. From authorita- tive sources it was learned. however, that Rickard has no intention of hold- ing the match in any isolated section of the country, if site close to the metropolis Is available. The expense attendant upon a boxing bout of this so rtis so great that only & large center of population to draw from would warrant the erection of an arena capable of seating the number of spec tators necessary to pay for the pursa involved
 Reports were current today that the contest would be held in New Jersey. and both Newark and Jersey City were ramed as probable sites for the arena

BOXING BOUTS ANNOUNCED DIV ID ~ nEETCTAV


 Frank Strobno will meet Jack Brady in boxing bout at the Athletic club on the night of April il. Lou Gomez, Tommy Tompkins' new bantamweight, will probably fight on the same night, but as yet no opponent has been found for him.
 Strobino is the little featherweight who made such a splendid showing
 in the southern tournament here a
 short time ago. Frankie failed to win
 the championship. but he was de- feated only by one of the best little
 bits of fighting machinery seen in Birmingham in long time. one Frank Bogue, of Spring Hill college.
 Jack Brady is the old war horse of the B. A. C., being a veteran of many scraps in the local ring. He will out weigh Strobino when the two meet, but they will probably rule an even money bet
 The last fight card at the B. A. C., or the last card planned, was the one where Young Jack Dempsey was sup posed to meet Lou Gomez. Young Jack failed to prove his Identity, however, and the affair was called off. Bill Streit, president of the Athletic club, states that no such affair will occur at the B. A. C. again, for he will keep close tab on who's who in local ringdom.

WINTERS RELAPSE

Spring is very often tickle, Leaving tossers in pickle;
 Springs forever stumbling. First she'll dress up in her fragrance, Tempting weak men to be vagrants,
 Then she'll start us grumbling. Balmy zephyrs bathe the meadows, Causing thoughts of double-headers,
 Smiles bedeck our features; We sigh for soda pop and penders, Put on belt, discard suspenders,
 And rush for sun- baked bleachers. Athletes think the blasts quite freezing, Have ceased to egg them on to sneezing;
 But much to their remorse, sir, Winds sweep in from northern mountains, Skies are changed to weeping fountains,
 Comes the charlie horse, sir. Such worry's aggravating, Gobs of pains excrutiating
 Sting like sharp-toothed varmints Oh, winter, why return to poster, Causing man to don his vest or
 Long, woolen undergarments?

MUCH DEPENDS ON RESULT OF LONDOS' MATCH THURSDAY
If Big Jim Wins He Gets a Chance at Lewis on
 April 13
By MARVIN MCCARTHY

Big Jim Londos, the famous Greek wrestler, should be primed to put forth his best efforts when he meets Bob Managoff here Thursday night, for if he wins the victory a greater reward will await him-a chance at the heavyweight championship of the world.
 Press reports from Chicago last night stated that Stanislaus zbyszko and John Pesel, both foremost contenders for Champion Ed Lewis title, have been matched in a bout to take place in the Illinois metropolis on the night of April 13 Also, it was announced, Champion Lewis will probably meet Londos on the same card
 This would indicate that the pro-
 motors of the big show in Chicago
 are awaiting the outcome of Londos'
 match during the next week or so 7
 before announcing definitely that Jim
 will be given chance at Lewis. If
 LondoS wins his bouts, he stands a
 splendid chance of getting whack
 at the "Strangler.'
 Londos is considered one of the strong est contenders for Lewis crown; in fact Lewis has been quoted as saying that Lopdos will eventually win the champion ship. Jim should win from Managoff, for the latter is a veteran of many years of grappling and, naturally, has seen his best days in matdom. Londos, on the other hand, has yet to meet the zenith of his career. He will have one big, vital advantage over Managoff Thursday night, that of youth. The young Greek has splendid physique and needs only a bit more experience to become really dangerous foeman for Champion Lewis
 Bob Managoff, the man who bested Frank Gotch. and who has put many of the top-notchers down in defeat, will prove no child's plaything in the hands of Londos, but the husky Greek will no doubt rule favorite when the two meet at the B. A. C. Thursday night

by the Windham county court. Attorney
Frank +. Barber appeared as counsel for
her.
According to the state, l.. II. Bailey,
who works for Kent, saw Mrs. Nancy
turn into the ward at the Kent place
about 1870 O'Clock Sunday night. He
says she had a bundle under her arm.
Mr.. Bailey claims that she went toward
the barn. where the hay is access bic
from the outside He followed her and
called to her To halt, at the same time
pointing his finger toward her as though
aiming a revolver. Then he commanded
her TO come toward him, which she did.
Mrs. Manley was then taken into the
house and Mr.. Kent'S son came to Main
street and notified Chief-of-POlice Wilson,
who went TO the Kent place and arrested
Mrs. Aianley.
States Attorney Whitney produced in
court two wooden boxes. one of which
originally contained bottles of tiavOring
extract. In the bottom Uf this box was
about two inches of excelsior saturated
with kerosene oil, while in the center of
the excelsior stood a candle held in place
by four nails. The other box was
little smaller but it contained excelsior
in place by pasteboard. An empty cigar
box was with the exhibits.
1t was claimed by the states attorney
that there was bad blood between Mrs.
Manley and Mr.. Kent. and he said that
he received three nr feur months ago
complaints from MIR. Kent that Mrs
Manley had threatened to burn his prop
Crty. he believed the evidence was con
elusive that Mrs. Manley intended to set
fire to the barn.
Attorney Barber said there was plenty
of time after the arrest OF Mrs. Maniey
for someone to plant the boxes of excel
sior and candles at the place where Mrs.
Marley stood when held up by Mr.. Bal
ley. He said that Mrs. Mamley recently
sued Kent out of her house by ejectmcnt
process and that Kent had a bad spirit
toward her.
Mrs Nanley is a former Dummerston
woman. a divorced wife Of one of the
sons of the late PruciuS AIanley. She
owns the house near the foot of the long
stairway leading from South Main street

was awarded verdict of $25 in suit
against George NJ Stark Of this place.
whom she claimed sold her some prop
crty on which were some billboards. rep
reSenting that the billboards would net
her an income of $500 a year, whereas
there was no income from them. Mr.
StarkS buildings on Cedar street were
burned in the winter two years 90. The
state fire marshal and others who inveS-
tigated the fire were convinced that it
was set. but they never found sufficient
evidence to warrant making an arrest. al
though they had suspicious as h who set
the fire.
