SEW YORK. July 24. (Special)
Martin Dempsey. the elder brother of
the famous Jack, tne onpareil. aiea
reran tlr at the borne of his old friend
George Newman, at S Bedford avenue,
Brooklyn. He was burled In Calvary
Cemetery. Only a few of his old friends
attended the funerat aa none of the
New York or Brooklyn papers gave any
nntie. of tha nasslns: away of this once
famous wrestler. Uo wss S year of
arm mmi six year older than Jack,
who died In Portland. Or- In 1SS. at
the age of 14. from tubercular trouble.
The gallant Nonpareil remains rest In
the place he died.
6ome 20 yeara ago Aiarun utmpicj
sraa considered the greatest leaxner-
wais-ht collar and elbow wrestler In the
world. He often tsckled and defeated
200-pound opponents by his superior
grit and skill.
Jack, himself, started out a a wres
tiar hnt finally drifted Into boxing.
Martfti made a great effort In 1S to
become a fighter also, but after two
contests In the ring he threw up the
sponge and returned to bis old wrss
illnr came. He finally stopped that on
account of his age and obtained a posi
tion on the Brooklyn bridge which he
held for many yertr. Neither Martin
nor Jack aa ever a very strong,
ruresd man. but they were both ex
ceedingly game and skillful In their
own way.
Deaapeey Worked la Yeakera.
Possibly tew but old-timers, know
that Jack Dempsey once worked aa a
cooper In the old cooperage at the foot
of Vark street on the Hudson River. In
Yonkera, N. Y. That was 14 years ago.
and some of the old boys are atlll with
ua who made barrels with the Non
pareil In thla town and remember him
welL '
After he left Tonkers he went back
to Brooklyn, to ths smploy of Palmer's
Cooperage In North Fifth street, where
his brother Mar'ln was also engaged
at the trade. It was there 1 first met
Jack and Martin. They not only gave
me a helping hand In learning the busi
ness, but instilled within me the boxing
spirit which finally led m Into the
ring. So out of this shop came tha
three fighting Jacks, Dempsey, McAu

the ono mighty John U Sullivan.
In speaking of hla visit to the former

New York Sporting Cartoonist Says
Portland lightweight Is Being
Ile-frarded as Comer, Although
Yet Par From Finished.
BT HARRT B. SMITH.
SAN FRANCISCO. July SI. (Special.)
That Freddie Welsh Is largely to
blame (or the comatose state ot the
bozlna; crame In New York is the asser
tion made the other day by Roy Ripley,
a sporting- cartoonist on the New York
Globe, who has been visiting- friends
tn California for the past two weeks.
"It's Welsh more than any other
thing." said Ripley, "that has brought
the fistlo game In New York to a lower
level and that Is killing off Interest.
Tho lightweights have always held an
interest in Gotham, and there would be
a revival If we had a champion who
would stand out. But Welsh thinks oi
nothing but protecting his title and
simply will not take a chance.
Welsh So Drawing Card.
"Personally, you can't help but like
the fellow. At the same time, as a
card, he Is minus. Welsh doesn't take
any care of himself and is mciinea to
stav out late of the evenings. When
be fights, he leads just for tha sake
of going into a clinch. Then ha
will pump his arms to fool the specta
tors Into believing he is really fight
ing. But ha can only fool some of the
bleacherltes who are so far away they
can't see all that Is happening. Close
at hand, he Is roundly hissed for his
tactics. There isn't one chance In a
million for anybody to knock him out.
and that Is what has dlsgustea tne
patrons of the game.
"If he would take a chance occa
sionally, he could be as popular as any
champion, but that Is something f rea
die is dead set against. The result i
the bouses are falling off. The fan
ill not nay the big money to see
Welsh anv longer, and with the other
cards, the same decrease In attendance
Is Indicated. Some of the boys have to
fight for as little as 12.50 and you
often see a fight house where there
are no more than 150 persons on nana
for the bouts.
White's Boxing Puxxles,
Ripley also says that Charlie White
Is much of a mystery. Tne unicagoan,
to a certain extent, so he explains. 1
perfect in his movements, but just
about the time you think he Is going to
do something remarkable, he falls
short of accomplishing his end. The
cartoonist says he saw the White
Welsh fight and after It was over.
Harrv Pollock, who manages Welsh
remarked that White could have won
had he known anything about what
to do.
"Qlv me a day with White." he re
marked to some of his intimates, "and
I would have him so he could stop
Welsh in four rounds."
One of the best boosts that Ripley
has Is for Ralph Gruman, the Portland
lightweight.
"He Is a cleancut chap," says Ripley,
"and the New York fans have taken to
him In a kindly spirit. Of course there
Is a need for some polishing, but he
smears to be a comer and he is
prime favorite with the fellows who
regularly attend contests. Of course
there isn't much of a chance for him
to pick up any money during the Bum
mer months, as that Is the quiet season
in New York, but this coming Winter
he ought to do well.
Gruman Is Promising.
"I have seen Gruman in his Eastern
starts and think he is the most prom
islng material that we have. Young

When Taber negotiated the
mile In 4 minutes, 12 S-8
seconds recently in a meet at
Cambridge, Mass., he bested the
reoord hung up by John Paul ,
Jones by 1 4-6 seconds. This
also beat the professional rec
ord for the mile.
Taber will compete the coming
week In the athletic events at
the Panama-Pacific Exposition.
The new champion hails from
Providence. R. 1, is a former
Brown University -man and is at

Shugrue is trying a comeback, as he
has recovered his eyesight, but Gruman
is the lad I would rather pin my
faith to."
Frankle Jones, San Francisco light
weight, who recently returned home
from Australia, sounds a-warning to
scrappers of the United States who
might be thinking of a trip to the
Antipodes.
"Australia was probably all right
before the war," says Frankie, "but
Just now there Is nothing to be gained.
I didn't earn my salt while I was in
that country. Honestly, the money we
received for 20 rounds- of fighting
would surprise you. As low as 25 was
my end in some of the bouts. The
promoters are not to blame. It Is
simply a question of conditions. The
people have other things to occupy
their attention and will not go to the
scraps." .
Reno Fight Recalled.
Memories of the Johnson-Jeffries
fight at Reno on July 4, 1910, which
was promoted by Jack Gleason and
Tex Rlckard, are called to mind in
suit brought this week by Miss M. E.
Hogan, as an assignee, of Gleason,
against the San Francisco baseball club,
Frank M. Ish. Cal Ewlng, Henry Berry
and other defendants to compel them
to acknowledge the right of Gleason to
10,000 ahares of stock In the corpora
tion that owns the Seals, as well as to
set aside a sale of this same stock for
an assessment -that went unpaid.
Just before the Reno fight Gleason
and Cal Ewing were thicker than two
thieves. They were botn concerns
the local ball club and there was in
general circulation a report that Glea
son owned stock in the Seals Then
came the securing of the big fight by
Gleason and Rlckard, Still another re
port was that Gleason had taken Ewlng

CENTRALIA, Wash.. July 31. (Spe
cial.) The championship of Southwest
Washington will be one step nearer
being settled tomorrow, when the Win-

Bend, has not been defeated this year
and promises to go through the sea
son with a perfect record. His oppo
nents have made an average of less
than five hits a game off his delivery.

The Nebraska State League lasted a little
after July 4, but not much. The season was
drawn to a close Sunday, ths 18th, when It
was found that deficits Instead ot profits
were accumulating.
...
By winning- 13 straight recently the St.
Paul team broke the straight-win record of
tha American Association. Columbus, the
club that formerly held the record, with 12
victorias, did tho trick by walloping the
Saints, 1-0.
Topsy Hartsel, the famous veteran out
fielder who drew pay from Connie Mack for
several seasons. Is through. He was reoently
released by Fort Wayne when he proved too
slow even for that company. He was for a
time manager of the Toledo club In the As
sociation after leaving the Athletics. Topsy
will go into business in Toledo.
Lines to P. Schulte.
How does It feel to hold your stride
Alone with memories to guide.
Where tineckard starred at Hof man's side?
Or does your backward vision glanes
Where Steiny, levers, Tinker, Chance
Once led the league a Merry Dance?
Or do your memories take wing
Hack where the vanished echoes ring
With "For Chicago Brown and Kiing?"
Llks spectra! shadows down the lea
I wonder If you ever see
Gray ghosts of Cubs that Used-to-Ber
Gray ghosts that gather, one by one,
To frolic once more in the sun
From lost campaigns, forever done?
Gray ghosts that gather and careen
In Dhantom wniri across tne green
To mold again the Old Machine?
Or, sole survivor of the east
Of fame endurins; to the last.
Are such dreams hurled with the past?
