No man can tell, as general rule,
what wins man friends or enemies
in the ring. The dividing line may be
the color of his bathrope. the turn
Of his head or the way he spits. but
every topnotcher in sport makes
both friends and enemies uncon-
sciously. A third-rater may have
friends, but he has no enemies among
the fans. He Is not worth enmity.
However. when sufficient fighigoers
acquire a dislike for fighter and are
serious enough about it to want to
see him tumbied for a row of Buddhis'
temples he becomes a drawing card
and his manager buys a new diamond.
Even the most popular of the present
day boxers cultivate this side of their
drawing power. Many a cocky and
egotistical statement from training
camp is issued for the sole purpose of
arcusing a desire in the breasts of
those who read or hear it to see the
maker thereof reclining under the
swinging arm of a referee whose
arithmetical agility ranges between
one and ten.
Hoped to See Dempsey Licked.
Jack Dempsey is the greatest pugi-
listic drawing card in the world to-
day, but tie fight with Carpenter was
the battle of the century" solely be-
cahse large percentage Of the fans
who swarmed over Boyle's Thirty
Acres at from $40 to $50 a swarm had
a sneaking hope-not an expectation
that the Frenchman would cop the
championship. Many will go to a
Dempsey Wills match for the same
reason.
Next to Dempsey. Benny Leonard
the lightweight king. is the prize
money attractor, and there never has
been a fight yet that Benny did not
crawl through the ropes to a NUT
tered accompaniment of II hope he
gets his can torn off, Each of these
fighters, of course, has his equally
violent adherents. That is what
makes prizefights and horse races
and bank accounts for the canny
fighters.
Britt Had Many Enemies.
Jimmy Britt. the great San Fran
money in at the gate from enemies
than any professional fighter that
ever lived. Jimmy was born and
brought up in the tough district south
of the slot in San Francisco. He also
was born with a mania for sartorial
adornment. and even in his school
days donned and wore the high collar
and pointed tan shoes of the period
Papa Britt. prosperous plumber and
commissioner of San Francisco. the
California camouflage for alderman,
could well afford those adornments.
but Jimmy had to fight every time he
passed the corner of Sd and How
ard streets when he had them on.
Be it said that he never ducked
battle and seldom lost a collar. AS

DECIDED TO PAY
FINE. ONE WEEK IN JAIL
He Agree. to Absent Himself from
Kandiyohi County TO Prevent
Further Arrests

Charles Waters Of Lake Elizabeth
concluded to pay his fine last evening
after serving one week in the County
Jail. He was brot before Judge Null
ler in Municipal Court last Thursday
morning on the charge of maintaining
nuisance and was found guilty. He
was given fine and costs amounting
to $98 or fifty days in Jail. Atty. C. A.
Oberg was his attorney.
Mr.. Waters first decided to serve
jail sentence but last evening he paid
the fine and costs of $685.. The at
torneys for the State and defendant
agreed that he absent himself from
Kandiyohi county to prevent further
arrests at this time. s.
The trial of Bert Wolf and R. B. Nc
Clintic Of New London township for
maintaining nuisance, also set for
last week, was postponed until Aug
ust 25th. The reason for postponing
it was because Wolf has failed to get
any bail as he is also charged with il
legal selling of liquor. McClintic was
released on $3.50 bail.
