went along, taking his weekly
beating in the ring.
II But Grim wasn't inhuman and
finally the constant trouncing had
its effect upon the interior of
his head. He had to be con-
fined for several years. A quiet
life, with proper treatment,
brought recovery, and for a num-
Der of years he has been living
quietly in Philadelphia, well nigh
forgotten by followers of the ring.
Now he is to have a benefit
and many an old-timer, reading
his name, will grow young again
as he thinks back to those days
when Joe Grim was taking his
beatings in the ring and laughing
at his conquerors.

Japanese or other Far Eastern PEG,
pies will never challenge America
las the home of baseball champion
ships. The fans over there, partic,
ularly in Japan. are better fence
busters" than the players.
But baseball today is certainly
the national sport of Japan. In
Tokyo the stands were small, large
enough for only about 10000 people
and some 1000 stood outside. un.
able to get in. 1t was then the
fence was broken and a good-sized
riot started when the outsiders
tried to crowd in.
We played twenty-six games in
all, through Japan, China and
Korea. Everywhere the people
were interested in seeing us hit
the ball.
The Japanese don't think much
of a player that makes a safe liner
for one or two bases. They like to
see a fellow belt the ball in the air
even though he flies out. Babe
Ruth would be a big sensation if
he ever decided to tour that coun-
try.
The Japanese are great "yessers.' -
They don't seem to understand the
finer points of the game and when
we'd try to tell them they would
listen attentively, say YES" and
when we would finish, they would
go out and repeat their mistakes.
Ball clubs are being organized all
over Japan and in certain parts
of China. Their big handicap as
players will be in the fact that
they are smaller than we and
won't be able to hit very hard; but
as fielder's they'll stand up well,

how he could take the wallops!
Oh, mamma!
Grim was born Saverio Clan
none at Monticello, province of Ave
limo, not far from Naples, Italy.
He was the eighth of a family
of six boys and three girls and
he showed up on March 16, 1881.
He will thus be forty-two years
old next month.
When little Saverio was nine
years old his father brought the
whole family to the United States
and, after making good as a mer-
chant in New Haven, Conn.,, he
took the army to Philadelphia.
Unfortunately, the elder Clan
none died shortly after reaching
Philadelphia, leaving the widow
and nine children in a strange
country and almost penniless.
He Shined Shoes.
r IKE many another poor boy,
Saverio took to shining shoes
to add his little bit toward
the task Of providing meals and
a roof for the family. He was
picked up by Lew Bailey, a Phila-
delphia ring promoter, and brought
out in preliminary shows.
Joe Grim was given the Italian
for a name and under that title
he proceeded to face all the
toughest boxers in the country.
AS he grew heavier he faced such
men as Joe Cans, Joe Walcott,
Bob Fitzsimmons, Kid Carter and
Jack johnson. He was afraid of
no man in the world, make no
mistake about that. He banked
almost wholly on his ability to
take punishment. He did not hand
out much himself, but he sure
could take it.
oVoG OSt"CCH
and Grim started all kinds of sci
entific Investigations into the
reason for Grim's ability to take
punishment. In six rounds Fitz,
admittedly the hardest hitter of
his day, flattened Grim twenty
times, but he could not keep him
on the floor.
"He's the toughest man /
ever faced" said Fitzsimmons
after that bout. "No less than
three times / gave him all I had
in the solar plexus, and the only
effect was to have him laugh out
loud and start a speech to the
crowd. He's inhuman, that's what
he is"
He Wasn't Inhuman.

The work of distributing steel along the Nenana-Fairbanks division of the Alaska Railroad was inaugur- ated last week, preliminary to the standardization of that section of the line. New and heavy rails will be laid over large portion of the line, to take the place of the light steel used when the road was built And where standard weight steel is already in use the rails will be wid- ened to standard gauge.
 Weather conditions being favor able, this work will be completed with few weeks, so that 1t is rea- sonably certain standard gauge equipment will be going through to Fairbanks from Nenana during the early summer.-Nenana News.
