CHAPTER XIII.
HOW BOB F1TZSIMMONS WAS TRICKED
INTO FIOHTINO ME.
FTER half a year at liome, with
a lot of good hunting, I began
to feel like taking on another
flght. But I didn't care to
look for little ones. I felt near enough
"to the top of my class to wont a flght
for the championship. Things were
going along this way In the spring of
'09 when nil of a sudden wo heard
from Billy Brndy In New York.
Brady had been out of ring affairs
for n long time and busy with theatric
al stuuts, ns he told rae afterward,
when one day a gentleman came Into
his office with a proposition. Ho want-
-,
t
ItYAN CRACKED DUNKHORST ON THE
NOSE.
ed Brady to go Into the Coney Island
Athletic club and take charge of all its
affairs. Brady didn't care much for
the scheme at first. He wanted to bo
known as a theatrical man and not as
a promoter. Anyway, boxing had been
dead In New York for some time, and
there had been few good matches.
But the game came up again In great
shape, and people began clamoring for
the champions. Brady was sitting In
a cafe one day talking the situation
over, and as he talked he got enthusi
astic. "I havo a great chance here," he said.
"I know a big fellow out west who can
whip Fitzslmmons and take the world's
championship. He's fought here In the
cast, but ho didn't make much of an
impression. People don't know him
the way I do. The time Is ripe to
spring him, nnd I've got a good mind
to take a flier in fighting again."
"Why don't you?" asked the party on
the other side of the table.
"By George, I will!" exclaimed Billy
Brady.
He did. ne took charge of the Coney
Island A. C. and wired Billy Delaney
to see me and get mo to come east
again. In a few days we were on the
way.
When I was actually in New York
Brady began planning a way to get
Fitzslmmons to flght me.
"You can bout Fltz," Billy told me.
"I know very well I can," I said.
"Then it's Fitz we've got to get for
you," said Billy,
Brady knew in a general way that
Fitzslmmons was cither nearly flat
broke or that he had all of Ms ring
earnings tied up in some way. Being
In the theatrical business, ho knew a
lot of Inside things about various peo
pie. He heard somewhere or other
that Fitzslmmons, after a stage tour
Just finished, had failed to puy the
printers' bill for his theatrical postors.
' The bill was something around 100
or JPD00, and the printers had been un
able to collect.
Bradv, who was a. customer, too,
dropped into the printing company's
ofllce In an incidental sort of way and
In the course of conversation said: "I
hear you have some trouble getting
money from Fitzslmmons. I suppose
he's a little short just now. ne hasn't
fought for a long time."
The printers acknowledged that
Fitzslmmons didn't appear to be roll
ing in ready wealth.
"Woll," said Billy, "that could be
fixed up easily enough. Next time you
call on Fltz with the bill why don't
you suggest that he take on some dub
for an easy fight and got a few thou
sand dollars? Ho hasn't been in the
ring slnco he won the championship
nt Carson two years ago, and the peo
ple are crazy to see him again."
Here Brady stopped and thought
awhile. Then be Jumped out .of his
chair as if ho had a sudden idea.
"Why, say," he said, "I'll give him a
flght at my club down at Coney Island
nnd pay him good money for it. ne
jan take on this big clumsy guy, Jef
fries, that I've Just brought on from
California. Ho can beat Jeffries with
out any trouble. It'll bo easy money."
"I'll mention it to him," said the
printer, getting interested. "It sounds
good, and I'd liko to see Fitz in action
again myself."
Brady did another thinking stunt.
"The preliminaries won't netd to
HOUSEHOLD REMEDIES
Are a blessing to tho vast army of
people who' live In rural district,
and such standard medicines as Ly
dla B. Plnkham.'s Vegetable Com
pound, which has stood the test of
cost much when we've got a champion
like Fltzsfnitnons for a hcadllner," he
weut on, "and I won't have to give
that big stiff Jeffries more than a
few dollars. As soon as the flght is
over 1 can send him back to the coast
and get rid of him, so I'll save money
that way too. I nguro that I can give
Fltz 05 per cent of the receipts, win,
lose or draw, and still make enough
to cover all expenses and have a fair
profit left over. Tell iilin that ho can
have 05 per cent, and we'll draw the
biggest houso on record."
Brady had struck t,he right scheme.
Fitzslmmons" listened and agreed to
flght
So we got Fitzslmmons, and at last
tho thing I'd been dreaming about
ever slnco that day when I walked
down the street with Charlie White at
Carson had como true. I' had my
chance to flght for the championship
of the world, and I made up my mind
right then that I'd either win it or
thoy'd carry me out of the ring on a
shutter. 1 didn't Intend to take the
trouble to provide the shutter either.
Now that I was really matched
work started In earnest We got a
cottage at Allenhurst, N. J not far
from the beach at Asbury Park.
Back of our cottage we had a hand
ball court built. It was like the hand
ball court Corbctt had at Carson ex
cept for the fact that it wasn't roofed
over. The weather was fairly warm
now, and I like to work as much as
possible in the open air. Beside the
cottage thero was a croquet court
Croquet may be a ladles' game, but
nobody would have thought so if they'd
seen Tommy Ityan and big Ed Dunk-
horst, the "human freight car," at It.
Then it was more like football. Tom
my had a little on Ed. They used to
bet a quarter a game. One day I was
acting as referee, and Tommy had won
about a dollaV and a quarter from
Dunkhorst. Ed had only two bits
left, and he was sore. Tommy just
touched the bull with his mallet be
fore making a shot and moved it an
inch or so. Dunkhorst Jumped in and
claimed a foul. As referee ! decided
that there was no foul. Dunkhorst
started to holler, and Ityan turned on
him.
'You big quitter!" yelled Ityan, and
he reached over with his mallet and
cracked Dunkhorst on tho nose. The
blood flew all over the front of his
shirt. That broke up the game.
My training staff at that time con
sisted of Billy Delaney, my special ad
viser, and Ityan and my brother Jack
and Ed Dunkhorst. ityan was middle
weight champion. Jack weighed well
above 200 and was game and clever.
Dunkhorst was like an elephant. Ho
weighed over 300. He was covered
with layers of fat that made him like
a punching mattress.
When I boxed with Ityan U was
a pure flght. Ryan was supposed to
be in the camp to give mo the benefit
of his skill, for he was one of the
Greatest boxers in the world and full
of tricks. But I'll say right here that
during the whole time I trained at
Allenhurst Ryan didn't show me a
single trick. He surely didn't invent
the "croucTi" for me, as most of the
papers said at that time, for I used
that crouch in my first flght and in
every flght afterward whenever I need
ed it. Ryan didn't want to snow mo
anything. His whole idea was all
Ryan, Ryan, Ryan. He seemed to hate
me for being so big and strong. He
was envious, for if he'd had my phy
sique with his skill he'd have been'
heavyweight champion as long as ne
cared to keep on fighting, and nobody
would ever havo come near him as a
fighter.
One funny thing happened at our
camp that I nearly forgot. Next door
therp were several of those imported
English fighters training.
I bad several cases of good Bass ale
shipped down to the cottage when
training began nnd stored It away in
the cellnr. Every day I went down
and got what wo wanted for our din
ner. After awhile It' seemed to me
that ale was going mighty fast. I be-

MY BOTTLES OF BASS. !
gan to keep track of it. I looked tho
staff over, and they were all nice and
thin except Dunkhorst, who scorned
growing fatter nnd fatter in spite of
the hard work. Said I to mysoir,
"That big stiff Dunkhorst is stealing
my ale." So I thought I'd teach Dunk
horst a lesson.
That night I went to my room at 0
o'clock, wnited until all was quiet and
then sneaked down and hid myself
near tho cellar door. Nothing stirred
for a couple of hours, and I was Just
shout to give it up when I heard a
soi'nd at the cottago across the way,
and in n few minutes one of the little
Englishmen came creoping across our
lawn to our cellar door. Ho opened
tho door slowly and sneaked in. A
momout later ho came out again with
his arms full of my bottles of Bass. I
Jumped on him like a cat. But I
didn't hurt him Just took tho ale
away and told him I'd kill tho next
Englishman I saw around the place
and lot him go. Thero wasn't any
moro alo ht the English quarters.
Noxt day at dinner I gavo big Dunk
horst two bottles for himself to ease
my conscience. But I didn't tell Ed.

ACCUSED OF KILLING OLLIE
SNYDER AT PRAIRIE CITY
CAUSES MUCH EXCITEMENT.
UNITED r&ZSI LSiSXO W1EB.J
Prairie City, Ore., May 2G.
Fearing that mob violence might be
nttompt'ed on tho persons of five
men who go ,on trial today for tho
lynching of OlHb Snyder horo last
Christmas, armed deputy sheriffs
guarded the county Jail at Canyon
City during tho night. Several
guards with loaded rifles aro on duty
In tho sheriff's office to protect tho
prisoners.
Tho men charged with being re
sponsible for Snyder's death are
Deputy Sheriff Joe Casaday, Em
mett and Earl Shields, Ben Hlnton
and Bert Green. The charge will
bo murder In the first degree.
A special Jury list of 100 namc3
has been drawn, but this undoubted
ly will bo inadequate if each of the
defendants demands a separate- trial.
An effort has been made to obtain
special counsel to assist in tho pros
ecution. George Rader, a prominent
stockman of Long Creek, has of
fered $500 toward tho employment
of James E. Fenton, of Portland, to
assist in tho prosecution of Casaday,
but the district attorney will refuse
Mr. Fenton's services unless he ap
pear also in tho other cases.
Tho people aro aroused and feel
ing against the accused men is in

and killed by a Grays Harbor train
yesterday. Ho died several hours
after being struck.
To the, last he displayed remarka
ble vitality. As ho was being re
moved from under the locomotive
wheels, which had crushed both feet,
he remarked: "Looks as if I was
done for now."
Rossman was 84 years of age and
served -with Company X, Second
Michigan, in the Civil war. He had
been in the home four years.
Rossman had Becured a week's

GRAY HAIRS BANISHED.
The old Idea of using sago for darten
Int; tho hair ia again coming iff vogue.
Our grandmothers used to havo dark,
glossy hair at tho ago of seventy-five,
while our mothers have white hair before
they ore fifty. Onr grandmothers usel
to make a "sago tea" and apjly it t
their hair. The tea mado their hair soft
and glossy and gradually restored tho'
natural color. One objection to using
such a preparation was the trouble of
making it, especially as it had to be
mado every two or three dajs on account
of It souring quickly. This objection has
been ovcrcomo and by asking almost
any first-clnss druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur the public can get a su
perior preparation of sage, with the ad
mixture of sulphur, another valuable rem
edy for hair and scalp troubles. -Dally-uso'
of this preparation will not only
milckly restore tho color of tho hair but
will also stop the hair from falling oat
and make It grow. It Is sold by all
druggists for DOc. and $1,00 a bottle, or
