where, except Harry Wills. Dempsey
is good fighter, but in his own
opinion, as shown by his actions, he
evidently does not consider himself
quite good enoughs to fight Harry
Wills. If he did, he would fight him,

reason. Carpenter thought sincerely
that he could lick Sikh, and so made
a match to get the bumptious Negro,
as Carpenter considered him, "out
of the way" and to shut that Negro's
mouth. Carpenter was disappointed.
Dempsey is not even willing to
risk disappointment as to Harry
Willis. He now on the trail to Firpo,
in order to keep away from Harry,
although Harry was a qualified con-
tender for the title before ever Firpo
was heard of.
And just think of it. American
race prejudice backs up and honors
this unsportsmanlike business. AS If
it made any difference what color the
biggest and most skillful slugger

If Dempsey and Firpo should fight
before Dempsey and Wills, it will
leave one of them face to face with
the winner, what would he do then?
Perhaps some other South American,
or South Sea Islander, could be dug
up by that time to give him side

with the game until Dempsey finds
himself in a cul-de-sac, with Harry

CAMBRIDGE MAN
DISAPPEARS; BODY
SOUGHT IN RIVER

CAMBRIDGE, Ca, Sept. IA
"All men take warning. Respect
and love your wife. Leave other
women alone. (SigneO Perkins,
This message, pinned to the hat
Of IL. E. Perkins, storel1eeper for
the Georgia, Florida and Alabama
railroad, who disappeared here Tues
day night, together with letter
to his wife, received late yesterday
afternoon, form the only clues upon
which friends and relatives are
working Upon to determine his
whereabouts.
Whether or not Perkins cont
mitted suicide by drowning is prob
,c1natical and opinion is divided upon
this score. The rver will be dyna-
mited this afternoon by those who
have been dragging it's bottom since
yesterday.
No one knows just what the miss
ing man was referring to when he
wrote the note, pinning it to his
hat, which was found on the river
railroad bridge.
Since his DISAPPEARANCE his az
counts have been checked at the
railroad office and found to be IL
excellent shape He owed no debts,
had money in the bank and was
considered one of Bainbridge's best
citizens.
The letter received by the wife
indicates dependency, but gives no
reasons for it. He told her that he
had paid up all debts, had left her
some money in the bank and that
he could not face the conse-
quences." He continued that he MADE
a mistake and it was too late to
correct now. A few months ago. ne
said, he could have corrected 1t,
but 'acted foolhardy."
Just before he left Wednesday
night, stating that he was going
to Savannah, he asked his wife for
his Shrine pin. He was very active
in Shrine and Masonic affairs herr.
At midnight Wednesday he was
seen IN a restaurant, where he
cashed one of several checks be-
fore he disappeared. All of the
checks were good.
The next that was heard from the
man was when his hat, pistol ana
valiSe was found by night watch
man on the railroad trestle.
Perkins has a wife and four
children in cambridge. His small
est daughter is very i'll with typhoid
fever.
