times Make has invited Miss Trevor
to accompany him to prize fights,
night clubs, theatres, movies, OF
anywhere she'd like to go. And
seven times Miss Trevor has had a
previous engagement, or had to
study, or didn't feel very well.
But Make, to his intimates, pro-
fesses himself undaunted.
I'll keep on asking her." he tells
them brightly
And his movie career is boom
ing. After this one, he's going to
play with Wayne Morris in some
thing about jy-ints-yeah, that's it
Valley of the Giants" He has a
fight coming up, too, with Lee
Ramage. but he thinks he'll skip
that if it interferes with his movie
career.
Make is more interested in his
new career than in the old one.
Reason. in the past II years he's
fought 800 matches but seen about
100; in the same time he figures
he's seen about 1000 shows-indi-
eating that his heart is in the
show business even though the ring
left its mark upon his caulifloWer
ear.

BEAM TRAVELLING
DOESN'T WORK
CoIdstein's Schooner Sitka
Finds Bottom loo
Rough

Word was RECEIVED from Kodiak
recently by l. Goldstein, that the
beam traw fishing experiment being
conducted by Capt. William Doucett
and the vessel Sitka, belonging to
Goldstein, has been failure.
The men passed through Juneau
about two months ago with East
Coast type fishing gear with which
they intended to take cod and other
bottom fish.
Doucett wired the experiment had
failed because of the pronounced
Irregularities of the bottom in the
Kodiak area, rendering the trawl
practically useless.
With expenses to make, Doucett
said the crew had set to with hand
lines to get enough cod in the holds
to pay the cost of the trip.

lar Moore, chairman of the board,
intends to order distillers to boycott
advertising in afternoon papers served
by this correspondent, because tne
chairman does not like certain articles
written by the correspondent with re-
ference to the liquor board, its &C.
tivities and it's head.
The secretary's 1Itin1ation OF an
impending boycott came when this
correspondent called at the board
office Saturday to get statement
which Moore said Friday afternoon he
would prepare for us in member
papers. Moore was not in, but Mrs.
Armand said he probably will have
statement later.
"And he is also writing all distil
lers who advertise in the afternoon
papers you write for" she added.
Asked whether this meant that
Moore planned to forbid distillers to
advertise in these papers, she made
no direct reply, but reiterated that
Moore is highly dspleased because
this correspondent has written arti-
cles about the board and it's chair
man which he contends are not IL
accordance with the facts.

Raleigh, May First real signs
that the recession has finally struck

in the April report of collections by
the Revenue Department., which
shows substantial decreases in sales
tax and income tax returns.
On the other hand, the gasoline tag
collections continue to show increases
over the corresponding month of 1887
while franchise tax collections were
so much higher this year than IN
April, 1887 that the total collections
of the revenue division showed an in
crease over last year. On the contrary.
despite the gas tax increase, total
motor vehicle bureau collections were
smaller (although by an almost in.
finitesimal percentage of .O3, due to a
marked falling off in license tax and
title fee collections, indicating that
the sale of cars, both new and old,
was off from April, 1887.
Figures under the intangible tax
collections were not imposing, with
only $39, 624.O7 to add to the sum al

about half the $2,0OO,OOO it was est
