NO YOUNG HEAV|ES.
NEAR LOUIS CLASS
Schmeling, Farr, Pastor Are
Only Boxers Acceptable
as ChaI|engers.
BY SPARROW McGANN.


"A TEE YoRk, July 6.-Boom days
are in store for young huskies
" who think they can fight good
enough to stack up against
Champion Joe Louis AT the present
writing there are but three white
heavies considered capable of ex-
tending or possibly defeating the De-
troit Negro. Max Schmeling is first
on the list: Tommy Farr is second
by virtue of holding the British En-
plre crown, and our own Bob Pastor
brings up the fag end of the small
list.
Schmeling and Farr are monkeying
with the idea of fighting it out for
the world title next August. They
will make the idea stick on the other
side of the big pond, but, when it
comes to taking down the champions
share of the purse in fights in this
country, neither the German nor
Englishman will get far. Louis is
the attraction and Mike Jacobs
knows it. Any one willing to fight
for the crown as held by Louis will
have to be content with 1912 per
cent. or cool his heels until Jacobs
gets ready to give him another call
New Class Is Forming.
PASTOR is in different category
The former N. Y. U. grid star
earned some measure of distinction
by lasting 10 rounds with the Bomber.
The local husky turned in good
Job IN whipping Bob Nestell, but the
victory did not register much in the
big cities of the East and Midwest,
since Nestell can be classed only as
far-from-flnished performer.
Youthful candidates for the newly
forming white hope class number
Jimmy Adamick of Detroit, Max
Roesch of Dallas, Ralph ODell of
Sioux City. Iowa. and a few others
who have not as yet been properly ex-
plotted in public print.
Adamick bears watching because of
his punching power. Jack Kearns
recently signed q contract to steer the
young heavyweight along the hard
path he and Jack Dempsey trod. If
kearns uses the same strategy and
patience with Adamick that he did
with Dempsey, there is a strong likeli-
hood that Jimmy will be right up
there with the best of them in two
years.

The Coup at Laurel.
A FEW years ago a horse named
PHAR LAP won most everything
in Australia. Aqua Caliente, seeking
publicity for its 100000 handicap,
cabled the owners an offer to ship for
the race. The big horse. which later
died of blood poisoning near San
Francisco, won the race very easily.
A year later it was said that the An
tipodes had another wonder horse. He
was shipped over together with his
Jockey and gray plug for company.
Columns were written about the
wonder horse. Failing in California,
he was shipped East,
There was not track in the country
that was not bidding for the horse as
an extra attraction The owners
were prevailed upon to try an Ameri-
can jockey. They did. and he won
one race. 1t looked as If he might
be getting good. All the time there
was not a whisper about the stable
companion.
Spring and Summer passed and one
dark afternoon the gray ghost was
entered in a cheap selling race at
Laurel. He was bet on from Broad
way to China. None of the money got
back to the machines. The price was
a healthy one. Those that saw the
race will remember the eight-length
gap the gray streak opened up on the
back stretch. He won galloping. The
Australians collected and went home.
They still are laughing.

MYSTERY VICTIM
is LAID TO REST

Potters field claimed the dry,
bleached bones of Sheridan coun-
tvs unknown citizen.
The bones, those of a man per-
haps 35 years old, were found
about a month ago by workmen
grading a road east of Reserve.
Evidence of foul play was un-
covered with the find. Huge rocks
had been placed over the mans
body and a hole in the skull point
ed to murder.
The bones were found in con-
toured form. the leg bones having
been twisted to tn back of the
skull. Burial had presumably been
hurried.
The other day County Coroner

the remains have been. ordered
burial.
Efforts to link the mystery witt

man from the Reserve territory
about rs years ago, have so far
failed.
Medical men estimated death

Cattle Leaving Area
as Drouth Continues
60 Carloads Reported Already
Gone from County and
More Leaving Daily

1t was estimated today 60 car
loads Of cattle have moved from
Sheridan county points to markets
and feeding ranges due to the per-
sistent drouth which daily grows
more acute.
Within the next two weeks, IL pro-
visions are not made by govern
mental agencies to bring feed to this
section. the greatest cattle move
ment from the county in history will
result.
Fine Sheridan county herds which
have brought ~sustenance to many
Sheridan county farmers and ranch
ers, are being broken up and shipped
to market because of the feed short
age.
The past week brought an influx
of cattle buyers to this section and
bargaining is in order.
Farmers the first of the week
turned livestock into stunted fields.
Farmers in the Plentywood COM
munity said such fields will insure
on an average, feed for about ten
days and when that supply is ex-
hausted, shipment of cattle will in
evitably result. Farmers and ranch
ers are making gallant efforts to
"hang on" to their livestock as long
as possible.
Sheepmcn Worried
Sheep raisers, holding their
bands intact with the hope feed
would be available, this week saw
grazing lands stay barren.
The feed problem is most acute
at the present time, sheepmen say.
If sufficient grass and feed were
available during the next six weeks,
Ambulance of imported grass, which
may be available at fair prices,
would make it possible for many
raisers to tie over their flocks.
Shipments Are General
Cattle shipping is general from
the county. 1t was estimated here
that seventy-fve percent of the
livestock is going to market and the
remaining percentage to feeding
lands. Some shipments for feeding
purposes have been made to North
Dakota and Minnesota, and the first
of the week cattle left here for
South Dakota ranges.
In all it Is estimated $500 head
of stock have already been shipped
from Sheridan county and addition
al carloads are leaving daily.
