Fifty tboujuwd dollars of Drmpner's 100,0OO final' In-, ntallment to,, his' fight with ". Gibbons had been assured from one individual at 2 o'clock.. State Senator Spec, the" fight promoters' attorney, said the re mateder was expected . to be ,' raised before night. SHELBY, Mont... June 28. A chance remark dropped by a man whose index finger lingers -on the local pulse,' developed the interest ing fact that the sum of $75,000 rep resents the actual cash taken in to date by the promoters of the Demp . sey-Glbbons - halt ' million dollar dream. ; It Was the first direct In formation that has, been obtained on the matter of ticket saleB. this secret having been guarded with the jeal ous care t. . mother for her first born. '.From anbther source, equally reli able, we have been assured that the bout will take place as scheduled, al thought contrary reports have been very active during the last 2t hours. These reports purported to indicate that the final . installment, of $100, 0J0 'covering Dempsey's guarantee would be allowed to go by default and the entire result dropped with the alacrity of one unhanding a red headed, stove, ltd.-. . Our information Is -quite to the contrary. - ' -; 11. Is to the effect that, the money will be paid when due and the fight put on, although actual information as to Just howy this desirable condi tion may be hastened is a bit vague. The Great -Northern railroad and capitalists of Great Falls seem to have qualified, for, the martyr roll that will make Montana safe for the padded knuckle. ".'; i, . In other words, the hot sports of this , locality, haying . .wished, them.- selves ,nto colossal bloomer, are ready to pay the price of their folly. ' It will -be a stiff, one.. . . It, the aot,ual receipts are $75,000 a week before the tight only a miracle-can' bring the investors .50 cents on the dollar: when they come to count the returns. Dempsey, first, of all, will receivef$'310,000. That is as certain as the day before yesterday, unless Jack Kearns has a conple of wisdom teeth extracted. It by. some windfall the receipts should reach this sum or more, Gibbons -will be gin to cut in on each additional dol lar. If not, Gibbons, the. promoters and the sovereign state of Montana will 6 all to the' cabbage. ;v;- ' ; "--' v 83,000 .In Salvage ' .

PAUL, June 27. Mtke Gib bons, the middleweight brother ot Tommy. Gibbons, challenger for the heavyweight crown, known In ring circles around the world as "the phantom," and Saph McKenna, the bamtamweight who was a . pocket edition of the elder - Gibbons will never box again because ot defect ive vision. ' In his last tew starts the phan tom collided with punches which In other days would have whined harmlessly by, been blocked with elbow.' or shoulder,, or have been picked oft with a glove before well started. It was not until he visited an eye specialist that Mike learned that the sight of one eye was vir tually gone, due, it is believed, to a loose lace of a glove striking it. McKenna was recently dismissed from a hospital where he was taken following his last bout with Johnny Ertle, former bantamweight - title claimant in. which Ertle shaded him and landed a blow which' definitely put out of" the ring one ot the clev erest little boxers ever, developed in this section. Physicians declared McKenna's eye would never - regain Its usefulness. ' , McKenna,. who worked with Gib bons in training, had Mike's style to the last detail. He was not as inclined as the phantom to stay in close, but showed as well in flashy footwork and speed. Into the July 4 ring? At this hour the receipts are a million miles or so from justifying the hope that they can meet the final payment which the. contract provides tor the champion. It all figures so far given out are correct, the cash intake to date has not hit the $2000,000 mark. - And this total must exceed ISO0J0O0 before the receipts can" pay' the Dempsey' end. - Those who are ' promoting ,,"' the fight and. those who are merely as sisting through state pride in the ef fort to put' It over now are verbally laboring with officials of the Great Northern railway. - They are trying to get the railroad to loan that final $100,000,; Snd,-'faingBln' that, will make an appeal to some of the multi millionaire officials, of the company to make the loan out of -their own pockets. . ... : So far the efforts have not been successful. !

Meals twice dally,, with not tpq much meat, plenty ot exorcise without musalea, cold baths, a dip In creolln to com bat fleas, a cool, shady place to sleep, and. a body cV In axtrem-i southern portions, makes ' up the formula for summer treatment ot dogs as suggested by the Illinois Humane society. ' "It every one will take care of his pets during the warm months. j there will be no tear ot hydropho bia or rabies In any American city" according to the society. "It should 'be remembered that a dog dpes not perspire like a human being, and that the only way. he can relieve himself of- the excessive heat Is by opening his mouth and ' panting. Frequently a person sees a dog lolling Its tongue trying to expel heat , and' exertion and a cry ot 'mad dog' goes up. Tue original cause ot the trouble, . with very few - exceptions, waa that the dog was making himself comfortable. "Resulattons requiring a dog to be muxxled, bo he cannot pant, is enough to .drive a dog. mad and goes to make . any animal peevish and ready to snap. . In hot weather all" dogs' should -' be allowed to run where- they can open, their mouths and pant as. freely as possible. "A dog enjoys a cold bath. Al ways permit them to swim' wher-. ever possible, or wash them at least once a : week. He likes a cool, shady place to sleep, and . a kennel that is dry' and well ventilated. 1 .' "Fleas are the worst . pests . ot dogs In summer. A tableapoonful of creolln or similar disinfectant dissolved- In a quart ot warm water makes a good washing solution against this pest. This operation should be repeated as often : as necessary because the solution does not kill ' the eggs. Never apply kerosene or gasoline to the sklu ot a dog. - i t 'Feed your dog twice daily, and not too much meat'. :. Under no con dition should dogs. be. fed haslets, Hver.t veal, chicken, raw fish, oat meal, cornmeal, - rice, " potatoes, cooked eggs, cakes and candy." , HUGE AIRSHIP PLANNED .
