OWENSBORO. KY, Mar. 8
(R.-James C. Ellis, q fabulously
wealthy sportsman who started
as a laborer and brick mason,
died yesterday. He was 83.
Death came in Hot Springs,
Ark, where Ellis was attending
the races. He was hospitalized
last Saturday.
Ellis, owner of the race track
bearing his name near Hender-
son--and the only man in Amer
lea to own a track outright
was considered one of the Ma
tons wealthiest bachelors. Dun
and Bradstreet estimated his
fortune at around so million
dollars. Others guessed as high
as 100 million.
He was the last surviving
member of his immediate family
but leaves three nephews and
three nieces.
Ellis amassed large part of
his fortune in the Oil business,
but he was also nationally
prominent as horse and mule
trader and accumulated much
real estate.

Johnny Evers, Chicago Cubs

was thrown out. Chicago and
New York tied for the league
championship, and Chicago won
the playoff.
Merkle played in the major

In 1916 Merkle went from the
