The iron drill used for this pur-

Skelton Found Near Juneau Has Been Identified

The skeleton found near the Ba sin Road, Juneau, last week, re ports the Empire, was tentatively identified as that of Mirko (Big Mike) Adzich, who disappeared May II, 1925, after writing a note indicating he would take his life.
 Identification was provided by Al Lundgren and Emil Rundich.
 Emil Rundich was Adzich's partner at the Chichagof mine when Big Mike was injured in an accident. AS a result of this in- jury, he dragged one foot, ac- counting for the toe patch, and carried cane. The rubber tip of the cane was found with his remains.
 Adzich received S1,700 compen sation from the mine, but is sup posed to have gone through the money rapidly and became broke and Respondent.
 The note which Adzich left in his room at the Alaskan Hotel was as follows:
 Dear Comrade Jagoshe:
 "One old tree is starting to fall
The Nome nugget., 1940-05-01

and If 1t should be on the road remove 1t out of the way and notify Emil Rundich. The time has arrived, must proceed. Yours with regards, MIRKO ADZICH."
 The letter was addressed 10 Joe Jaradich. It was found by John Covich who went to Adzich's room to look for him.
 Adzich before going out told the clerk at the hotel desk he was going to the Alaska Juneau

bitter cold and transfer to the other company's railway just to comply with a silly law then I'll have to take the matter up with the voters"
 Well, that was the last Pop ever heard of that.
 More Trouble
 He did have a little trouble later on when they were building a wooden bridge across City Is- land. Pop wanted to run his horse-car line across there. They wouldn't stand for it. So one night, after the bridge was finish ed, Pop got mixed gang of his Italian and Irish voters together and between midnight and dawn they laid those rails across the bridge.
 "The next morning Old Dobbin was pulling the car across the bridge and the car was met with an armed force. Pop was on board and waving his umbrella. He just grinned when the car was stopped and he shouted: Gentlemen, if you want to hold up the United States mail, you'll have to take the consequences. And right in their faces he way ed a government mail pouch.
 How Pop ever got the United States government to throw in with him on that, 1 don't know but that horse-car carried U. $. mail as long as the opposition could remember.
 "Yessir, Pop was a great pol itician,n concluded Carey.
 Pop has my vote, Harry. He un doubtedly could give the modern boys aces in the hole and beat them with a deuce-doWn draw ev en with Vice-President Garner in the game. m

The Washington
 Daybook
By Jack Stinnett

WASHINGTON - Into the of fee of Cactus Jack" Garner the other day came Cactus Harry Carey.
 Occasion for the visit was sim ply that Carey was in own, mak- ing his return to the stage after 29 years. He wanted to see and chat with the vice-president, whose chair he occupied for that "Mr. Smith" movie.
 Occasion for this yarn was that the two got to reminiscing and out of that came a remarkable example of how life goes round and round. John Nance Garner, the son of a weSterner, becomes a big politician. Harry Carey, the son of a big New York politician becomes a westerner.
 MT. Garner, no doubt, could give Harry cards and spades and beat him to death at the polite al game, but Cary Pere would have given MT. Garner a run for his money.
 Pop" says Harry was one of old Richard Croker's Tammany district leaders in Brooklyn and a judge of the court of special sessions.
 Carried An Umbrella
 He anticipated Chamberlain by about 50 years-used to wear high silk hat and carry an um- brella, rain or shine. Only differ ence was he used it all the time used it to keep the sun off as well as the rain.
 "Golly, what a bunch of theiv es they had around Tammany in those days. Even Pop had a fran chise. It was for a two-mile horse-drawn railway through Pelham Bay park. Pop set it up and charged 10-cent fare.
 Seems like there was a state law in those days that you could n't charge more than five cents on any street railway, so Pop was called up to Albany um- bre.la and all.
 They put him in the pan, told him he'd violated the law and Pop says Now, gentlemen, l know the law. For years l have ibeen on the bench. Doesn't that law say that no one street rail way company can charge more that five cents? But does it say any thing about two companies net being able to charge five ce2.s each? Well, gentlemen, my two-mile railway is owned by two companies. One owns one mile, another the next. You can look up the articles of incorpor- ation, And, gentlemen of you want to sit here and issue an or der that the thousands of poor DeoDla who ride those railways have to get off at the end of the frst mile in torrential rains and

LONG-AWAITED
BRAWL SET FOR
JERSEY IN MAY
Winner to Get July Bout
With Louis - Should Be
Darkroom Battle
~ LACK CUDDY

UNITED Press Staff CoErespondentD
New York, Feb. 22-(UP)-This
being Washington's birthday, we
canont tell lie about he 15-round
brawl which Promoter Mike Jacobs
slated last evening for the Jersey
City bali park in late May.
"Uncle" Mike matched the two
coolest and most garrulous Of gladi-
ators; Fat Tony Galento, the beer
barrel poker, and statueSque Make
Baer, the wine and dance man.
Although the principals are Of
ancient brew and vintage, their
battel In Roosevelt stadium should
decide for once and all whether
corner salQoners can Hex male
members OF cafe society.
Because of the Importance Of this
issue on our social life, Uncle Mike
expects neighborhood jernts and
42nd street boob-traps to send huge
cheering sections to the Jersey City
bottle front.
In addition, this tilt ebtween so
year old Galento and the 31-year
old ex-champion win decide which
elderly warrior viii chance another
knockout from champion Joe Louis.
In previous jousts with Jolitng Joe,
Tony and Make each lasted the
same abbreviated distance: four
rounds. Anyway Promoter JACOBS
has promised that the Galento-Baer
winner will be tossed in with the
Brown Bomber in July If Louis IS
still champion then. II the melee
Is as successful as Jacobs expects,
the July bout may be staged there
also.
The July promise indicates that
Louis hopes to defend his title az
least five times this year.
Mayhem
: This May bout should be thriller
for the spectators-a masterpiece
of MAYHEM. Both are wild-swing-
ing ring ruffians, who toss SCIENCE
and the rule book intot he buckeb
before they emerge from their cor
ners, Galento will be favored 70
win because last June he gave LOUIS
terrific head punching ana nao
the champion on the floor before
Joe stopped him in the fourth heat.
Moreover, Tony came back IN Sep
tember and knocked out young Lou
Nova, who had kayoed Baer In June.
Galento's victory over Nova marked
"Two-ton's" last ring appearance
Baer too, staged comeback OF
sorts by knocking out an unknown
named Babe Richie at Lubbock.

Makes last engagement.
Mike. Jacobs originally planned
the Galento-B fight as q Fin
nish Relief Fund show at Madison
Square Garden in April, but when
the New York commission refused
to renew the license of Galento's
manager, Joe Jacobs, the bout was
driven out of New York. Promoter
Mike substituted the Louis-Paychek

20 fer the Finnish fund.
