Valentino was lent to Firpo, be-
cause his mind was so continually
on his fistic idol, that the consul
was afraid he might make a mis-
take in his salad, and use mustard
instead Of myonnaise.
One daily item of the menus
that he prepares for Firpo is ''pu-

A mysterious name like that
should possess some mystic virtue
to its partakers, but, questioned as
to its component parts, Suarez

Another illusion shattered.
Firpo has been called slow and
awkward.
Ask Frank Kobele, his sparrlng
partner, about it.
Slow" he says. "Say, that bird
is slow in the same way that a
bear is slow.
Tigers have the rep for speed,
but ask any animal trainer and he'll
tell you that bear can move some
fast himself, despite his apparent
awkwardness.

ing repeal of this special tax at the

The smokers say that if the tax
is allowed to stand, it will take

their pockets. They expect to or

growers.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Sept.
1O.LLouis Angel Firpo is no dumb
bell. -
He had been listening to his
friend and interpreter, Carlos
Vega, read him an article by a
leading sports writer in which the
fight with Dempsey was called a
farce on account of Firpo's sup
posed weakness on defense. (Frpo
has all the sporting news read to

"No? Perhaps Louis face does
not take the full force of those
blows. Perhaps his face is moving
away, when they land"
A good story is going the rounds
of the fight in New York regarding
Firpo's canniness in money mat
tiers.
A magazine which is devoted to
sport and which makes a practice
of running photos of athletes on
the front. cover, for which advertis-
ing the athlete is supposed to con-
tribute, sent their representative to
see Firpo.
The proposition to run Firpo's
picture on the front cover for the
modest sum of $500 finally was &C
cepted after two hours negotiations
through and interpreter.
Two days after the appearance
Of the magazine on the stands with
Firpo's photo duly printed on the
front page, Firpo appeared at the
office of the magazine with re-
quest for $500, which he thought he
had coming for permitting his pic
ture on the front page.
Much of Firpo's tightness in mon
ely matters can be laid to the fact
that he does not fall for the touch
es Of the panhandlers who beset
every man in the pugilistic lime
light.

Keeping Tabs on
Cost of Allied
Occupation Ruhr

Paris, April 11.-(By A. P.)-The
economic staffs attached to the re-
paration commission are keeping
books on the cost to Germany on the
one hand, and to France and Belgium
on the other, of the occupation of the
Ruhr. Complicated studies are being
made of the direct and indirect losses
to both the economic bclligcrents and
to their neighbors.
me French experts arc particular
~ interested in Germany's cash out
lays for her program of passive re-
SlStance. These are dealt with under
several main headings, such as her
average monthly imports of 1000 200
marks 4 ton, or, roughly, $4,000, 900
gold marks.
Other items are the payment of
wages to some hundreds of thousands
of workmen in the Ruhr, the losses
to the German export trade, which
is the most difficult category to deal
with at present owing to inadequate
figures, and the losses to Germany's
international trade.
These calculations satisfy the
French that the German government
is spending in actual cash abroad
and in her reduced income of foreign
monies sufficient to have met the
cash reparation payments under the
Cannes agreement of 60,O0O00O gold
marks monthly.
On the other side of the balance
sheet it figured that the three months
occupation of the Ruhr has cost
France and Belgium a direct outlay
and losses in cash amounting to AL
100000 francs.
