Don’t all our society people do that? White Wife a Suicide. He was as good or better than anybody else socially and financial ly. Everybody about him told him so. The unwritten law of race segregation that Intelligent negroes, for the peace of their race, hold as sacred as the whites was not for him. Wasn’t he the champion prize fighter of the world, and hadn’t the other champion prize fighters disgraced themselves to their heart's content with white women? When his white wife com mitted suicide and he seemed, to have some difficulty In getting an other white wife he brazenly abducted a white girl. He had been arrested about thir ty-five times. No on£ knows the exact number. He had served two or three jail sentences. He has abducted white wpjmen and assault-, ed little negroes. He has said'that he doesn't think much of the United Stated and "has renounced his al legiance.” He has tried to kill wit nesses who dared appear against him in his various legal troubles and has contracted all sorts of debts without the slightest idea of ever paying. He tried to send his own brother to the penitentiary and explained that It was “brother love,” and there Is no case on record where he has ever shown the slightest gratitude for the help that was given him in the lean day when he was often hungry. < 'ontracts, written or verbal, were forgotten the moment he made them unless his inclination happened to be to ward fulfillment at the time set. Al! of these outbreaks of what is really but the abnormal condi tion of a vain and twisted child’s mind in the body of a great fight ing brute have been given rather more publicity than is usual with champion fighters because of John son’s race. This is unfair. His col or has simply accentuated his rot tenness and in no way caused it. There have been plenty’ of white fighters who were his rivals in brutishness. It Is an animal sporl. and the greater percentage of pure beast in the makeup of a man the greater his chances for success, financial gain and the inevitable sequel—a riot of bestial pleasure. Today the negro champion is an outcast, and the penitentiary is closing in on him.

The headline attraction will be Terry Mitchell against Barney Ford, Botli of these fellows are Eastern welters and the matchmaker’s reports are that they are both fast, willing workers. “I am sure that these boys will scrap and riot stall.” says Staten. "They have both written that they are mighty’ anx ious to get a start in the South, and I have assured them that a good show ing in Atlanta will not only mean more bouts right here, but in Chattariopga, Nashville, .Memphis and Jacksonville as well. “They have been described to me as hard hitters and experienced ring men. and the combination'ought certainly to please." Eddie Hanlon and Clarence Collins, local boys, will furnish the semi-wind up, with two good negro pugs in the preliminary. A battle royal will start the evening's festivities. TEL BERNA WILL QUIT RACING NEXT SPRING NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—Tel Berna, one of Cornell's standbys in the long distance running game, is to quit ath letics for good after the next inter collegiate championship. Berna won the intercollegiate two-mile championship in 1910 and 1911. He is a cross-country runner of the highest class, and won the individual title several years ago. ganized that they can do it. A Washington gathering of negroes declared that he was not even a man, much less a negro. Booker T. Washington, who has been a useful servant of the black race and should have had more sense, was pleased to say some nice things when Johnson clubbed into senselessness the other brute who had taken his rewkrd of alcohol and vice and was no longer fit to fight. Washington hastened to take all of this back and denounced the prize fighter. He says he should never be allowed to appear in pub lic again and that no negro should speak of him with respect. Chance or Bresnahan May Lead Brooklyn Team Charley Ebbets Wants One of Them for Manager By Sam Crane. NEW YORK. Oct. 28.—With Frank Chance and Roger Bresnahan on the manage rial market, as now seems proba ble. there appears to be a most lovely chance for those owners of the National league clubs who have not fixed themselves for astute and most valuable leaders of teams tg take advantage of the great oppor tunity presented, by fortifying themselves with the best manage rial talent in the business. Greater New York baseball fans are more interested right now on what decision President Ebbets, of the Brooklyn club, will make in his choice for manager of the Su perbas than what other clubs will do. The Giants are. of course, well fixed with -McGraw as leader, and he w’ill probably be a fixture as such just so long as he himself ip agreeable. Ebbets Is Negotiating. I have, it on good authority that the genial owner of the club across the bridge, after whom the Super bas’ new home is named, has al ready entered into negotiations with both Chance and Bresnahan. If he secures either, he can an nounce a new holiday, because all Brooklyn will applaud. Yes, all the fans over there in thAt burg will go further- —they will get up on their tiptoes and yell poems of joy. The engagement of Chance or Bresnahan would put new life into baseball in Brooklyn, and be a. most fitting climax to the grand opening of Ebbets’ field that is sure to take place next spring. And if Roger Bresnahan is secured as manager of the Superbas, 1 make the sug gestion now that March 17, St. Pat rick's day. be announced as the date of the opening ceremonies. Ebbets Can Afford the Price. President Ebbets. with the added attraction of his new ball park, can well afford to pay the money that Saves Leg of Boy.

IT SEEMS ALMOST MARVELOUS Again the Wonderful Cura tive Power of Quaker Herb Extract Is Displayed. This time .. i.- mi other that a young man. -0 years of age Mr diaries J>. Owens, win, resides with his parents at East Point, this city. He has been a sufferer for the past live years with what was supposed to be some form of stomach trouble, but. after taking “lx doses of Quaker Extract, expelled a monster tit-foot tape worm, head and all complete. Mr. Owens is a young man of this ity. Mthmigir J't years of age, he has had h hard struggle for life. The com mencement of his troulib was about four years ago He would have a great he would have to spend to secure either Bresnahan or Chance. And believe me, Ebbets has shown him self such a game fellow in building tile new Ebbets field in the face of obstacles that would appall a less plucky club owner, will not finish at any cost to secure the manager that is virtually certain to assure him and his club both artistic and financial success. Without wishing to detract from the ability of the managers the Brooklyn club has had since Ned Hanlon, still the fact remains that the Superbas have not been a suc cess under the managers the team has had since, and many’ of the annual failures have been due or charged, anyhow, against the late managers. There is no doubt that the Brook lyn club has had as strong a pitch ing staff and certain individual players that have been the bright particular stars of the National league. But lack of team work and weakness in several positions have held the team down outrageously loyv compared with the splendid nucleus the club had at the start of many seasons. The natural conclusion to arrive at. therefore, is that a manager with the fighting qualities, ability and winning records that botli Bresnahan and Chance have would surely make the Superbas as they stand today a first division club and probably contenders for the championship. Cubs and Cardinals at Loss. But. where will the Cubs find Cardinals land when they lose the leadership of their managers? I can see Charley Murphy with out the controlling hand of Frank Chance. Owner Murphy is proba bly right now about the most un popular man in Chicago. It has been the success of his Cubs with Southern California affords more opportunities than any other area in the world. WHY? Because it has proven its possibilities in a thousand ways. The pioneer work is done. The chances to follow proven lines are unlimited.

The hereafter of his club, team and baseball it self was secondary’ to Murphy, pro vided he could gather all the coin that his shortsightedness could see for the time being. He was not diplomatic, and that is one of the worst mistakes any man who is catering to the base ball public could he guilty of. When any one gets to become as money mad as Murphy appeared to be in the heyday of his ownership of the Cubs, a disastrous reaction is sure to’ occur. And the Cardinals without Bres nahan? Why, they will be in about the same position as the Giants would be without McGraw. COMPANY F TEAM WINS SUNDAY AFTERNOON GAME Company I-'.

Kinsella Imposed one condition with his offer. Roger Bresnahan must be reinstated as man ager. Kinsella claimed when Bresna han is unhampered he is the best man ager in the league.

He was told then that a. tape worm was causing all his trouble. I truly believe, and. if it is, you take this Quaker Extract, according to di rections on the bottle, and watch for results. He did, and, behold! six—just six doses were taken. He felt a little disturbance in his bowels, responding to nature’s call, and expelled a monster tap< worm, head and Sill, squirming and alive, and this monster 61 feet in length. * This case should convince even the most skeptical of the wonderful power of the Quaker Remedies.
