Just a nut who's gone crazy

remarked when he received Tex
Richards telegram offering $4,000
for a return match between Terry
McGovern and Jimmy Britt at
Goldfield, New, Labor Day, 1906.
HUMPHREYS not only never had
heard of Richard, but when he went
to look UP Goldfield he couldn't find
the boom town on the map. He
never took the trouble to answer
the wire.

to answer. Richard began making
preparations for bringing another

Before Tex could make another
move, luck played into his hands.

RUPTURE IS
NOT A TEAR

Some people have a mistaken idea that
rupture is tear. Rupture is not tear,
but purely muscular weakness in the abb
dominal wall. Trusses merely brace these
muscles, but do not strengthen them--on
the contrary the gouging of the ordinary
truss pad often increases this weakness,
as it tends to shut off blood circulation.

Garden Men
Give Thought
to Finances
Obstacles Loom in Path of
Florida Fight; Venture
Appears Costly.
BY FRANK GETTY
United Press Sports Writer

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.~-Despite
the optimism Of Jack Dempsey over
his first venture in the promotion
of prize fighting, the path to the
proposed bout between Jack Sharkey
and Young Stribling, scheduled for
Feb. q at Miami Beach, is paved
with obstacles.
1t is the board of directors of
Madison Square Garden which must
decide whether to provide the neces-
sary financial backing for the bout.
These gentlemen are the ones who
will be risking their cash; all Demp-
sey has at stake is his amateur
standing as a promoter.
Sharkey Comes High
When Sharkey insisted upon
100000 as a guarantee for his APP
pearance at the Florida dog track
next month, he meant mcney-not
maybe.
The Boston boxers 100000 must
be paid before Sharkey shows his
nattened nose inside the ropes, and
then there is Stribling, who wants
20 per cent Of the gate to say
nothing of the fact that Dempsey
exacted a promise that Mrs Rick
ard widow of the late promoter,
should receive so per cent of the
profits.
Must Erect Arena
The leasing of the dog track,
which was Richards personal props
erty and does not belong to the
garden corporation, the erection of
an arena to seat $4,000 spectators,
and other considerable expenses in
cidental to such a project make TIE
overhead for the affair no mean
item in the minds of the directors.
These directors will be listening
to the proposal as business men, not
as fight fans or boosters for Florida
real estate. Tex Rickard had many
reasons for wanting to hold this
Sharkey-Stribling bout at Miami
Beach which will not enter into the
consideration of the borad.

Meanwhile, Cans, who was willing
to meet Nelson on any terms, had
agreed to "a $4,000 purse.
Tex quickly enlisted the aid of
The big business" men Of Goldfleld,
who wanted to put their town on
the map and the guarantees were
raised by subscription, with Al
Meyers, the discoverer of Goldf1eld,
contributing $4,000. Richard riSked
only $4,000 of his own money.
Money Stacked in Window
Suspicious CT Richards tactics,
Nolan and Nelson hurried to Gold
field and when they arrived found
$4,000 in $40 gold pieces stacked
in the window of a wooden shack.
Both fighters started training in
Goldfield and the bout began to
attract considerable attention. Then
Rickard began building his first
fight arena, a crude affair half q
mile from the main street. 1t cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000.
Fight fans from all over the
country poured into Goldfield long
before the day of the fight. A San
Francisco newspaper sent two staff
men, RUDE Goldberg and w. o. Nc
Geehan, to cover the fight.
Behind Livery Stable
Mcclellan asked Rickard to
pose for his first newspaper photo
graph and Goldberg did the first
sketch of him. Embarrassed, Tex
posed for the photograph behind a
livery stable because he didn't want
any one to see him before the
camera.
The $4,000 in gold in the window
was left unguarded night and day,
but was never molested. Mcclellan
and Goldberg made much of this
tale of the unguarded gold and it
gave Rickard an idea he was later
to use in promoting his second bout.
One of the principal reasons no one
ever attempted to steal the gold was
that it was too heavy to carry across
the barren desert.

Probably this picture did not

because the story is such an illogical
thing, badly put together. The story
does not convince.
1t is rather hard to believe that a

prisoner had to return the copper.
1t is rather a big dose to swallow
even in a comedy drama. I may be
all wrong, but I think this IS the
weakest of the musical background

know that there have been some
mighty weak ones.

PATROL WAGON PROVIDED
FOR OFFENDING BEARS

The nuch-talked-of crime wave seems
TO have spread even to some OF the WHO
animals of Yosemite National Park,
according to word received by the dl-
rector of the National Park Service. 1t
has been necessary to provide patrol
wagon specially designed for recalc1-
trant bears. The wagon consists of a
piece of corrugated pipe large enough
to contain a bear, sealed at one END
and equipped with trap door at the
other. 1t is mounted on pneumatic
wheels to make the riding easy and
attached to an automobile truck.
When word is received at head
quarters that a bear is disturbing the
peace the patrol is sent to the scene OF
trouble. The pipe bear trap on wheels
is then detached and piece OF meat
placed inside. The guilty bear, smell
ing the meat, usually crowds into the
pipe in search of it. The trap dool
slams shut and bruin is a prisoner.
Bears so caught in the inhabited por-
ton of Yosemite Valley are sentenced
to Punishment. They are marked with
a daub of paint for identification, are
taken to the lower end of the park and
released. If they repeat" they are
identified by the paint mark. During
October IA bears had rides in the patrol
wagon, and only one, a mother bear
was found to return to the scene of heI
disgrace. She had an 8-month-old
cub which was left behind, and her
mother instinct being stronger than her
fear of the law, she reappeared in a few
hours. ~sssRlAli ZIG

fish has the habit of burrowing in the
sand at night to escape its enemies.
The developing worm bores its way
into the muscles of this fish. But in

into another fish and for this it depends
on the little fish being eaten by larger
