Of these witch hazel wands. Something

of money. Especially when It's missing.
The situation OF Jack johnson and
Frank Moran is more curious than
the current situation OF Primo Carne-
ra.. because the preem's money,
though he can't get at Ii himself. Is
readily accessible to several different
parties. Eventually. it will be split
up. The johnson Moran dough win
never be split up because, according
to legend, 1t was attached and Inn
pounded right on the face Of the
earth.
The hero of the story is the late
Charlie Mccarthy. in his time the
greatest all-around fixer in the City
of Paris. Mr.. Mccarthy did odd jobs
for Franco Americans at q fee of
81 1000. If you wanted a passport

81 900. II you wanted half interest
in the Bots de Boulogne. Mr.. Nc
Carthy would get 1t for $1,000. Mr..
Mccarthy could fix anything.
He was heavily interested In the
Parisian fight game, and. when Jack
johnson and Prank Moran were
matched to fight In the old Vel div,
Mr.. Mccarthy promptly took his place
in the middle Of the picture. He
Strengthened out the little tangles.

T,OR q time this season whitehill
~ was badly handicapped by lack

enough To have most of the passes he
gave out converted into runs. Re-
Gently. however, the stocky southpaw
has been in much finer form. Walks
have been infrequently handed out
by him and hits In crises rather few.
Notwithstanding this improvement.
Whitehill has most Of the time found
1t much more difficult than any other
Washington chucker to get on the
right side Of the book Apparently
he has more to his pitching than
any other OF the Nationals slab staff.
But bis pitching rarely pays Off.
As he pitched the Nationals to a
second successive victory here yester-
day--and 1t was the first time the
Nationals had scored as many as two
wins in q row since the first and
second days Of this month-the Earl
did about his weakest pitching of the
trip. 1t so happened, though. that
his club splurged to its heaviest at
tack since 1t left the home lot so
victory was easy for the left-hander.

THE fight racket abounded in the
cross, the double-cross and the

crossing back and forth prior to this
particular fight that Mr.. Mccarthy
became annoyed and determined To
protect himself. He began impound-

well that no one. by order of the
French courts, could touch the fight
ers' end of the receipts without a
