purposed women has made much valu-

of its existence. One has but to look
back upon it's illustriOus founder and

points the way to the stars in no un-

o O'Clock with Mrs. Ollie Redd of Chey-

usually large number of delegates for
an opening session We're on hand.
After the appointment of the usual
committees an address of welcome on
behalf of the state was delivered by
Mr.. Hale Smith, secretary to Gov.
William e. Sweet, who was detained
in Estes Park. He was well received.
Splendid reports came in from the
various clubs comprising the Fedora
ton, indicating much progress in the
past year. An interesting afternoon
session, with an increased number of
delegates, was held, at which time the
report of officers and various chair
men were submitted. The evening
session opened with Mrs. Ethel Cald-
well, chairman of the program COM

A large crowd was on hand and

The invocation was delivered by Rev.

the welcome address on behalf of the
city. This was the new mayors first
appearance before our group, and
while making no effort at oratory, he
impressed all present as to his earnest

Appropriate welcome addresses on
behalf of the churches and clubs were
given and were neatly responded to by
Mrs. Leonard of Cheyenne. The feat

Chicago Produce Market

chicago, July IL.
New breaks in the seasons low price
record for all future deliveries of
wheat took place today. and for the
first time this sea son the September
delivery sold under So cents a bushel.
Hedging sales Of newly harvested
wheat, together with inadeQuacy of de-
nand, had much to do with the fresh
setbacks in price. Closing quotations
were unsettled. varying from &c net
decline to &c advance. September 1853
to 963 and December 991 to 994. Corn.
oats and provisions scored gains. Corn
to lac. oats to &c, and provisions
16 to lie.
Although the wheat market showed
it's greatest depression early and rail-
lies afterward took place, the upturns
proved for the most part to be only
transient AS usual Of late. hedging
pressure was most in evidence around
the opening and it was during this pc
riod today that the September delivery
fell to the DAYS minimum of 952. Sub
seQuently the fact developed that offer
southwest were of less volume than
yesterday Rallies were also promoted
by some renewal of gossip about likeli-
hood of damage by black rust.
Some buying of wheat today was
ba sed on denials that the Canadian
bureau of statistics had estimated the
Canadian yield of wheat this season
would total as much as. SOC, 100000
bushels. Instead, the condition of the
Canadian crop on June 80 was reported
as los per cent. of the descennial aver
age of 153 bushels an acre. The acre
age estimate was 22,169. 600. On this
basis the last Canadian official est innate
would indicate a crop of 1855 008. 600
bushels. which is a little less than last
years total.
Corn and oats appeared to have been
overSOld and corn in particular re-
sponded readily to eastern buying
Provisions were frmer in line with
an upturn in hog values.

WHY NOT GIVE CHANCE
OF BEING HEAVY CHAMP?

There appears to be concerted ef-
fort in the East to discredit Harry
Wills. Although the Negro Is gener-
ally recognized throughout the box
ing world as the most dangerous con-
tender for Jack Dempsey's title, new
ertheless, in New York, the majority
of boxing writer's are inclined to
spool at Willis and call him a setup
for Dempsey.
II. as they claim, Wills would be
soft pickings for Dempsey, why not
match the pair, have the champion
knock him out and thereby end the
contentious of Wills admirers that
he can whip Dempsey?
Wills tipped over Homer Smith,
Glenn Johnson and Jack Thompson in
his last three starts, but received lit
tie praise for his efforts. He is doing
everything Tex Richard and the New
York sports writer's have asked OF
him. Willis is willing to fight Luis
Firpo, Tommy Gibbons and Jack
Renault and settle all argument as
to who should get the next match
with Dempsey. Surely it is not Wills
fault these three boxers will not fight
him.

PANAMA JOE CANS

Tonight friday Panama Joe
Cans Boston welterweight, and
Jock Malone will settle an old feud
in the ring at the Auditorium.
Cans Is expected to give his opponent
lots of trouble. In commenting on
Cans. George Barton says:
Minneapolis fistic fans placed
their stamp of approval upon "Pana-
ma Joe Cans" after watching the
clever Negro step through eight fast
rounds at Jimmie Potts gymnasium
Tuesday afternoon. They rate the
holder of the Negro welterweight
and middleweight championships as
being plenty good enough to carry
Jock Malone along at whirlwind
clip In their 10-round skirmish at the
st. Paul Auditorium Friday night.
Cans experienced difficulty in OBJ
tanning sparring partners. The ma
jority of battlers who work out daily
at Prof. Potts studio pleaded sore
hands and various other ailments
when Cans called for volunteers. Ted

consented to take chance and he

gy with slashing rights and lefts to
the head an dribs. A right uppercut
sent the Boston Negro to his knees,
and he took count of nine. He
arose only to meet another withering
drive and reeled about the ring, but
it required a fusilade of carefully
timed punches before Wills was able
to bring down his man. Referee
Henry Lewis had counted three when
a towel came hurtling into the ring.
1t was a rough and tumble encoun-
ter most of the way. Wills was gull
ty of questionable tactics at close
quarters In the first and second
rounds, while he numerically bat
tered Thompson about the body. The
latter was inconstant retreat and
hung on repeatedly,
Makes Feeble Effort.
In the third Thompson again took
Wills hardest blows, wagging his
head from side to side without rails
ing a glove in defense as his op-
ponent's blows ratified off his chin.
Then for brief session the Boston
man rallied and drove Wills back.
This offense was shortlived, however,
and Wills had his man hanging on
at the bell. That was Thompson's
last furry. He was little less than
a chopping block for Wills in the
final round.
More than $4,000 fans witnessed
the battle and gave Wills a noisy
greeting.

Malone announces through his

beat the clever Negro is to crowd him
all the way and smother his skill with
furious rushes.
