Heeney. lie merely thought it VAS
his greatest fight. Great fights are
measured By the calibre of your OPP
position. Heenev was the most
mediocre fighter Tunney ever met
as a heavyweight. barring BARLEY
Madden. who was nothing more
than a friendly enemy anyway,
Tunney looked great against
Heeney. He couldn't have looked
otherwise. 7 am convinced that
IL was his most enjoyable fight.
Against Heeney he was able TO
bring all his boxing genius into

China Used by Gen. Grant Presented TO HIS Gruuds0

ment from the presidency and following hA
trip around the world he visited the little Wis
consin city in 1880, and again made his head
quarters at the Squire Weatherby mansion,
where dinners and receptions were held in his
honor Mrs Weatherby taking much pride In
displaying her Grant china His old-time Wis
consin friends travelled from near and far to
pay their respects to the famous Soldier~Presi~
dent in the Badger mining and farming COM
munity and he gave them democratic greet
ing
At that time story went the rounds about
a sergeant who served In the Iron Brigade IN
the Civil War and who had met the general
once during his soldier career. He read in the
press that the former President was to visit
in Wisconsin and Illinois and informed the
mayor of his home town that he was going to
see him. The mayor thought he should have
a letter of introduction to insure an audience
and wrote one for the sergeant, who pocketed
it and made the trip. He found the general
at Galena, III, told him who he was and began
a search for his letter of introduction. Before
he could find it Grant gave him hearty hand
shake, asked him to sit down, and the pair
exchanged war experiences for more than an
hour, the sergeant forgetting all about the
mayors letter. When he returned to his home
city he wrote the general, inclosing the letter
he had forgotten to present, saying: I'm glad
I didn't hand you the letter, for If had I'd
have always believed you were neighborly on
account of the mayor. Now, I know it was
on my own account"
Badger State Army men who were with him
in the Mexican War told many stories of the
democracy and indomitable courage of the
intrepid young Second Lieut.. Grant, who was
made first lieutenant and captain for bravery
at Moline del Rey and Chapultepec while serv-
ing under Gen. Scott in the Mexican invasion.
These grizzled veterans having in mind his
Mexican campaign invariably called him
"Capn" Grant even after he had been made
a general and became President of the United
States.
WHILE Squire Weatherby.s acquaintance be-
gan with Gen. Grant In the late fifties,
the real intimacy was formed just preceding
the Civil War, when many conferences were
held with Grant at the Weatherby home and
plans discussed for raising volunteers in the
event OF war for the preservation of the Union.
At the beginning OF the war Grant offered
his services to the Government by letter but
received no reply. He raised a company at
Galena and was made mastering officer and
colonel of the 21st Illinois Volunteer Infantry.
Then began a career OF military activity that
made him famous throughout the world.

which were used nearly 70 years ago by ms
distinguished forebear. He was formally pre-
scented last week with pieces of the Weatherby-
Grant china, the gift of Mrs. Josephine
Weatherby- Russell of Shullsburg Wis, grand
daughter of Squire Edward @. Weatnerpy,
many times host to Gen. Grant before and
after the Civil War.
The presentation was made on behalf OF
Mrs. Russell by Thomas w. Brahany, Wash
ington banker and former assistant secretary 70
Presidents Taft and Wilson, and James Il.
Maynard, past department commander OF the
District Spanish War Veterans, both natives
of Wisconsin.
The china, which bears the Haviland stamp,
was purchased in 1859 by Mrs. Edward q.
Weatherby to be used on the visits OF Gen.
Grant to Shullsburg, when he made his mead
quarters at Squire Weatherby's home, one OF
the pretentious estates in Lafayette County.
The home was destroyed by fire several years
ago and among the few articles rescued from
the flames were number OF pieces OF the
Grant china and historical autograph al

months. 8.
The contract provided that work should
start at once, so all next day we Scurried
around, assembling our equipment One of
our best flies" and five steepleiacks were
ordered to report on the job the following day.
More men were to report as soon as other jobs
were finished. ~
Charlie and I: were congratulating ourselves
on picking up some easy money, but it turned
out to be case of counting our chickens before
they were Matched. .
Next day we hoisted our equipment to the roof
of the first chamber and hung our rigging. AS
yet none Of us had seen the bottom of the
chamber, but we had no misgivings After
putting some of the men to work on the ex-
terror, my brother stuck a miners lamp in his
hat, got into a bo'Suns chair and let himself
down through the trap.
I watched the flicker of his lamp as he
descended further and further into that black
well. Suddenly the creak of the rope as 1t
biipped through the block ceased entirely, and
Charles voice echoed up to me:
Help! This place down here is full of ratSi"
"Then you'd better get out quick" yelled
back.

Don't know. Can't see," replied Charlie.
"Cant hear anything but these rats. They're
gquealing and jumping around like mad"
Alarmed for his safety, I urged Mueller, our
man. to hurry. He stuck q lamp in his hat,
picked up a couple of iron rods and seated
himself in another chair. Next moment he had
disappeared through the trap.
watched his light going down until it
seemed on a level with the other light. Then
there was a crash Muellers chair had struck
the same cross beam my brothers was caught
on. The impact knocked the lamp out of his
cap and caused him to drop the iron rods with
q clatter.
Some of the fanciest cuss-words ever heard
come out of mans mouth rose out of that
steel cavern If 1t hadn't been serious, it would
have been funny. In the excitement Charlie
lost his lamp and they were left in total
darkness
THEY were in a worse fix now than before
- Mueller had gone to the rescue. hustled
the other men back on the roof and sent three
of them down with extra lamps and five more
iron rods. They proceeded more cautiously this
time. and presently they released Charlie and
provided him with another lamp and a club.
Then they got Mueller free, and all five lowered
themselves to within a few inches of the floor.
For the next half hour all could hear was
yelling men and squealing rats and the thud
of the iron rods on the steel sides and beams
Of the chamber. Every once in a while one Of
the men would miss rat and hit companion
on the foot or hand, and then the yelling would
start in earnest.
From my observation post on the roof 1t
looked as If the rats, with the advantage Of
numbers, were winning the fight. shouted
down:

'Many more left?"
To which Charlie replied, About q millionl"
I decided we were wasting time, so called
to them:
"Come up. all of you I've got another way to
f1x those rats"
Soon the rat fighters emerged through the
trap and don't believe ever saw Q dirtier,

poured rs barrels of hot tar into that rat-in-

down again. He reported there wasn't hide
or hair of rat to be seen.
Even the rat holes were plugged up. The
plan worked so well, in fact, that the granary
