BT TOMMY MAN. (Copyright. 1911. by A. H. Beckett.) After a week of training, if running around the racstrack could be called that. I wa ready to go against Martin Shaughnessy. the "Pride of Detroit." The bout came off at a roadhouse, known as "GifTs place." a few mile out of Detroit. The ring wa a small one and occupied the full width of the building, being placed in the center with seat on two aide. We used ordinary kid glove with the finger tips cut off, their purpose being more for the protection of our own hands to keep them from "spreading" than to lessen the effect of the blow upon the other man. When everything seemed ready, Shaughnessy slxed me up and then made a demand that the winner of the bout should take the whole purse. Evi dently my appearance wa not very prepossessing and the Detrolter thought he saw a chance for some easy money. 1 flbanghaeaay Gets No Cash. Well, Martin did not get that money and his try for It was no easy one. I Imagine that he was sorry for his bar gain before the bout had progressed five rounds, for It was one tough battle. I had very few friends in the audi ence, which was jammed on two aides of the ring. I did not even know any thing about my seconds. They were supplied by the promoters, but they turned out to be honest and competent. My chief second In that bout was a well-known amateur boxer and ath lete of Detroit. I forget hla name, but I remember him as a fine fellow. I believe that he was elected Sheriff of Detroit In recent years. While an amateur, he was an excellent Judge of how to map out a plan of battle and he gave me a lot of help in that bout with Shaughnessy. Everything went In the ring In those days: butting with your elbows, "heeling" the glove over your oppo nent's face and other such tactics were not frowned upon. And Martin Shaugh nessy proved an adept at all the tricks of the boxing game. For 12 rounds it was a case of give and take. I was the younger, but Shaughnessy had the experience. He liked to fight In close quarters, but I had a better knowledge of footwork than the veteran, and did not permit this.' Both of us were pretty well marked. Phavghaeasy Take Count. In the 13th round I got In right and left uppercuts to the Jaw, and Shaugh nessy toppled to the floor and took the count of ten. I had won the bout, and after speak ing to my - seconds. I was about to leave the ring when some one hit me from behind. I turned quickly and found my late opponent again facing me. The fans had not taken the de feat of their Idol any too well and everybody seemed to want another bout. I had no particular objection for Shaughnessy now had no terrors for me. I knew In my heart that I wss bis master. The referee told me that I had won the fight fairly and squarely, and ad vised me to leave the ring. I was feel ing too good, however, to take his ad vice In the face of the taunts of Shaughnessy's friends. Tossing the coat I had wrapped about my shoul ders to my seconds, I announced that I waa going to fight the Detroit light weight again and would knock him out so decisively that there would be no comeback. I was mad "clear through." - The bell rang. It was called the 14th round. Some may call tt the first round of a second fight. I shall continue to refer to It as one fight. Ryaa'a Nose la Brokeau I left my corner and met Shaugh nessy In the center of the ring. Feint ing with my right, he swung a right to my face, landing on my nose and breaking It. This made ma even mad der than I was before. The blow knocked me off my feet and In falling, I struck tbe bare boards on my face. There waa no padding In the ring in those days. The boards raised a bump on my left ey and when I got up at th count of eight I found that I could hardly see out of It. How I lasted that round I cannot tell. It seemed as if tbe end might come at any minute. My second gave me good attention and I waa in pretty fair shape for the opening of the 15th round and as It progressed I became stronger. For three or four rounds things were pretty even, each of us taking hard punish ment. After the 10th round my faater work began to bother Shaughnessy and In the lid round I broke down hla guard and finally got inside to land two stiff uppercuts. When Bhaughneaay went down It was to stay down for many minute. There waa no question about the aecond knockout. When I had been rubbed down and was dressed. I looked up the promoter to get the purse. He handed me 23. Think of that sum for 23 gruelling rounds of fighting. Why, in my light club at Syracuse. I have paid from $25 to i for each boy In the preliminaries. They now fight with padded gloves in a fine ring and none of the preliminary bout I have referred to went over six rounds. However, there has been a big change in boxing conditions In the 22 years since I met Martin Shaugh nessy. Experience; Is Gained. While my financial gain from the bout with Shaughnessy waa small. I believe that I got value In other ways. For one thing, I had the experience, and again I learned that when a boxer is once given a decision be should leave the ring and not try to gain It a sc ond time. I earned my victory twin but I have always believed that luck was with me In the second contest. In my bouts wlUs the railway labor ers, which probaVif numbered close to 200 In the three y5rs I waa employed there, I usually outclassed my oppo nent. Such was not the case when I met Shaughnessy. I learned tha I roust keep ray head at alt times, no matter what the provocation. Tbe eot of living waa not a break fast table topic in those days, snd th meager puree I won in the Shaugh nessy bout lasted me a few week un til I was matched with Mike Dunn. r f ft s-eV . 5 '," v--' - -.'4 wvik.: - E VhrtjirrfiiT-- '' uhiopy r . . - jhf a li... .: : .

BT ARTHUR CAVIL.U Several years ago Ed Coney, broth-r-ln-law to M. H. De Tonus, and a personal friend of mine, offered to wage-r that I could not swim the Golden Gate, or the entrance to San Francisco Bay, and I accepted the bet. The next morning I accomplished the feat and ever since, frequent efforts have been made to duplicate the swim, but a few weeks ago, all attempts had failed. Immediately after my swim was duplicated by two Olympic Club swim mers, and later by a young- woman, the San Francisco papers Issued challenges to me to contest with these successful ivlmmers, but as they are amateurs. and I am a professional swlm.mr, I fall to see how they -expected to arrange such a match, so I decided to attempt a swimming- feat much more hazardous than the swimming of the gate. I un dertook to swim Tillamook bar with hands and feet tied. Swimmer Xarrovrly Gseapea That I successfully accomplished this swim seems a miracle to me now, for I came as near drowning last Sunday as I ever have in my life. In the future no more stunts for me. ' Hereafter, I am content to confine my efforts to less hazardous pursuits than the hob bled swimming, of dangerous harbor entrances. However, I have been requested to tell of my experience In crossing Tilla mook bar. With T. L Potter and sev eral prominent citizens of Bayocean and Tillamook, Including the mayor of the little place, L. went to Garibaldi point in a launch. The swim had been widely advertised at the bay cities, and Sunday afternoon fully 1000 persons assembled on both points to watch my effort. Securely fettered by reliable persons I drove In from Garibaldi point and commenced the swim. I was getting alone; nloely for about 400 yards when one of several ' sea lions swam close to me and Its breath in my face made me deathly sick, whereupon the com mittee in the launch following me asked if I wished to be taken out. but I recovered somewhat and after swim ming about five minutes, felt better and started out more strongly for the Bayocean side of the bay. Gulls Menace Cavill. Hundreds of sea gulls swarmed over me. They kept circling about me all the way across and would swoop down dangerously close to my head, and I waa frequently quite fearful that one might peck me In the eye and blind me. With my hands hobbled I was ab solutely unable to protect myself, and the chap who handled the launch evi dently had never followed a swimmer SiMISHDOUu WINNEB OF THE PACIFIC COAST CHAMPIONSHIP IN DISPLACEMENT BOAT RACES AND FREE-FOR-ALL, AT ASTORIA.

On reaching the Bayocean shore an other difficulty confronted me. As soon as I got within the breakers I tried to gain a footing, but the ropes with which my feet were tied had sunk Into the flesh so deeply that my feet were so numb I could not stand on them, and every succeeding breaker would roll me about In the surf. After vainly trying to attract the attention of the crowd on the shore to my predicament, I was forced to turn about and fight my way through the breakers to the launch, and again I had difficulty in attracting attention, for evidently they thought I Intended to swim back again. However, I finally made it plain to them that I desired to be picked up, and when I was sted on board I was as near exhausted as I ever was In my life. My feet and hands were so numb that I was unable to use them for four hours after emerging from the The time occupied in the swim was 48 minutes, and the distance is ap proximately one mile, but It was the longest mile I ever swam, and from now on I will confine my efforts to or dinary swimming and instructing.

AdTie to Yonng Men Given by Visitor, Who Loves to Hunt and Enjoys Cross-Country Runs. Older Ones Benefited. BT THE MARQCTS OF QUEENSBBRRT (Copyright, 1811. by the Marquta of Queens berry.) I have seen and been captivated by the American game of, baseball, and am looklrg forward to seel'ig some of the best teams at their work. Base ball is a game that grows on one. and has much more lurid moments of ex citement than our national game of cricket. So I expect before long to become an enthusiast, or what you call a fan. But I have to confess that after watching any game, be it cricket, foot ball, tennis, etc.. it become monoton ous, and there one Is sitting growing fat and not taking the exercise which one would If joining in the game or following one's own particular bent in sport, which in my case is hunting and cross-country running. For middle-aged men, the mild ex citement of watching a rousing game is a healthy pastime,- but somehow or other the idea of a young fellow spend ing all his leisure watching profes sionals play seems to me not in the nature of what it should be. Of course, an occasional session at his pet team's struggle Is allowable, and good for his lungs and sporting morals, but I think young fellows should get Into the game or some other game themselves. No man should be content to watch a game and feel gratification in his champions' prowess unless he has grad uated from the game himself. He will enjoy It twice as much when bis own experience shows him the brilliant hit or the clever tactics of the captain or the unselfish gratutious effacement for the good of the team, which latter in baseball strikes me as one of its finer points. Day's Pay Given TTp to Play. It is only of recent years that base ball, football, cricket, etc., have be come so entirely professional. At home, a few years ago, every hamlet and village, not to say town, had its team of cricketers, footballers, etc.. . who not only received no pay, but gladly gave up one' or two days' pay in order to uphold the prestige of their home side. Nowadays professionals get enorm ous salaries, in America much more so than with us, quite rightly, for a man who devotes his life to sport should be able to earn enough to start on velvet when middle age reaches him. But my plea is that young men should butt In and play, and run, and leap themselves, and look upon watching a professional game as a reward for having kept themselves alert and fit. The criticism of a man who knows the game In and out is valuable and in teresting and his cheers ring true. But the fat, over-fed boy who howl at the players, howls at the referee, and howls at anything so long as it gives him a chance to give tongue Is rather like a hyena singing in a choir at church and about as incongruous. Again the public repression of legit imate sports, Instead of their enforced purification, such as racing, boxing, and wrestling, must have a tendency to effeminacy. It may creep on slowly, so slowly that the dweller in the coun try cannot see It, but an impartial foreigner can see here and there pecu liar signs, which cause him to wonder how so great a. people, so free a peo ple, can stand for so much interference in their rights of amusing themselves according to their inclinations. Too Much Interference Seen. To my mind, their very tacit subdued way of taking this interference, legal no doubt, but arbitrary, is a sign of that very tendency to which I have above referred. I tremble to think of what would be the fate of any govern ment in France or England which in terfered with the people's games. There would be bloodshed. On the bat tlefields of South Africa there are authentic stories of a whole company ceasing to fire to hear from a new arrival from the base of the winner of the Grand National vs. Liverpool oup. Without wishing to be supercritical, one thing has struck me here in Chi cago more than anything else. It is suoh a trivial thing, but it rankles in my mind and makes me feel uneasy, so I had better get it off my chest, and that is the barber shops. Splendid bar bers you have, the best in the whole world, men of skill and brains, who put their whole heart in their work but the chlents. Fancy any young man of 25, say, spending one-half an hour to an hour, which I am told is not un usual, in a barber chair, being titivated up, hot towel after hot towel, scanted creams, scented powders, a beautiful little lady to manicure his mitts, and finally a. face massage and hair out. It genuinely frightens me. Back To The Bike Be Your Own Motor WHY? IVER JOHNSON Trnaa Bridge.
