Some of the Punch Taken
Out of Foul Goal in

Editor.
NEW YORK. April 1s.-You can
thank MIR. Floyd Fitzsimmons, late
OF Benton Harbor. Mich, now OF
Michigan City. Ind, for the fact
that Benny Leonard. the lightweight
champion, lie not to link arms with
Jack Dempsey and Johnny kilbane
and join the merry throng along the
Strand In that dear old London. At
least. not in the immediate future.
Benny had previous engagement
with Mr.. Fitzsimmons to fight one
OF three men at Michigan city, July
4. Otherwise, he might show un-
seemiy haste inaccepting an offer
Of $40 900 to box Ernie Rice in Lon
don. The offer is advanced by Louis
Healy. responsible promoter.
which makes that end OF 1t quite all
right. and Rice is a very fair sort
Of third rater, which fixes that.
Giving the proposition the left to
right, IL seems altogether possible
that Leonard Will be disposed 10
keep the worthy Mr.. Healy In mind
for future reference.
The Basketball rules committee is
responsible for a bit OF constructive
legislation in taking some OF the
punch out of the foul goal. some

players will hesitate before they de-
Iiberately foul a man to prevent
him from scoring a field goal. The
latter is the life blood of basketball,
this business OF scoring point after
point from the foul line being
about as interesting as a bill OF
lading.
However, the game as played by
the colleges and among the anna
teurs can stand Improvement from
the standpoint OF the spectator. The
professional game is far more in

AGED MARINER IS
STICKING BY BOAT
J. D. Baldwin Carries Food and
Water to Capt. Charles Duval
Who is onsHis Boat, High and
Dry on Raccoon. Key.

! j. d. Baldwin went to Raccoon Keys
yesterday and carried provisions and
water to Capt. Charles Duval the aged
mariner whose craft was blown high
up in the marsh on September "a. He
had anchored to observe Sunday, as
| it is known that the old seaman would
never Gravel on the %Sabbath, and
while at anchor the northeast gale
blew his boat to a place where it is
doubtful if it will ever leave as it is
something like two hundred yards
from water Of sufficient depth to float
the craft.
Mr.. Baldwin offered to bring Capt.
Duval back to the city, but he refused,
saying he would make another effort
to get his boat-o off On the trip from
Jacksonville he lost a launch and also
a batteau and did well to reach the
edge of st Andrews, or rather, its
mouth.
Capt Duval, who is eighty-one years
of age, has followed the inland water
ways for many years. He has no rel
atives and his request is that in the
event of his death he be laid by his
wife and daughter, who are buried in
Palmetto cemetery. 1t is really sad
case as the money 1t cost to construct
the boat is all that was on hand and
now that the craft is rendered useless
Capt. Duval does not know just where
to turn for a livelihood Notwith
standing his age, the well known fig
ure along the riverfront is we'll pre-
served and had it not been for illness
it is doubtful if his craft would have
been high and dry. Mr.. Baldwin made
the trip in a launch owned by Capt
Frank Martin and carried food which
was furnished by the local Red Cross
through F. L. Stacy. He will make an
other trip and if there is no possibility
of pulling Capt Duval's boat off he
will bring the old man to the city.
