WILL FIGHT TI (WOE RUST

lly ItLVGSinii.
NEW lORK. May 6 Billy Papke
Is coining back. Tp be more
truthful. Billy Papke Is en
deavoring to come back. The one-time
middleweight champion of the world
has rekindled the old Hunting spark,
and thinks he can once more ascend
to ile crest of the middleweight wave.
To ahow his sincerity, Tapke has
nominated hlmeelf to oppose Tom Gib
statement. Aa a matter of fact. Mike
upon his reentry Into the pugilistic
Same He could have made no more
foolhardy selection, lr ne ui;
attain top honors again
Tom Gibbons Is no mediocre fighter.
Hie brother Mike will Touch for that
statement As a mater of fact, MiKo
thinks brother Tom Is even a better
middleweight than he himself
Which Is some testimonial, consider
ing that Michael is looked upon as the
most logical holder of the middle
weight championship.
Will Start In MUtrnnkee.
Papke plans to start all over again
in Milwaukee the latter part of this
month. Tom Gibbons Is an policing
outh. and will try to make the Illi
nois Thunderbolt" reconsider when he
gets him into the ring But that Is a
i latter for Tom to thresh out
The Spring Valley. 111., mauler has
not appeared In the ring since back In
Ottober, 191B, when he fought a arry
Ttowan in St Louis. Jt went eight
rounds with no decision, but a ma
lorify of those at the ringside then and
there read Papke's obituary as a glote
nan. Seven months previous to that
sad affair Papke fought Georges Car
pentier the European champion, and
the American won on a foul in 17
rounds, the Frenchman refusing to
omlnue Carpenter was but a mere
stripling then, and fought himself into
a state of physical exhaustion He
was conscious of his surroundings, and
possessed all his faculties, but he
lacked control over his muscles and
could not make them obey his com
mand He disclaimed any intention
of quitting, claiming that he simply
tould not continue.
Mnrted Fighting Ten Irarn Ago.
Papke started fighting ten years
ago When in the game but two years
h became undisputed middleweight
ramplon by knocking out Stanley
Ketchel, the Michigan assassin. In 12
rounds. Three months previous Stan
ley had given Papke a sound thrashing
in ten round Ketchel became undis
puted champion by knocking out Joe
Thomas in 32 rounds the year before
In knocking out Ketchel, Papke
failed to convince as to nls garaeness
even though he became champion.
With the -very first punch of the fight
he caught Ketchel between the oyes
and flattened Stanley, who never re
covered from the blow. Yet he man
aged to sUck 12 rounds, fighting
blindly. He lasted that long because
Papke thought his opponent was
feigning grogginess, and refused to
mix it with his tottering foe, whose
subconscious self alone was doing the
fighting
Knocks Out InpLe.
Two months after this affair Papke
and Ketchel met In a return match,
and this time the assassin regained "his
title by knocking out PaDke in 11
rounds. They met once more after
that, Papke losing a 20 round decision
the following July.
When Ketchel was shot dead on
December IB, 1910, the title revented to
Papke, who was one of the strongest
claimants at the time. Billy lost sev
eral decisions after that, but stlllper
slsted In his claim nf the cronn when
he met Carpentler in 1912, the fight
was billed as for the middleweight
championship of the world Several
months later, Papke lost to Frank
Klaus on a foul in IE rounds. Billy
fought one more fight after that, the
Kowan mill, and then retiied to the
seclusion of hie farm.
Whatever prompted Papke to return
Is a question of debate Some contend
that Papke is in need of ready cash;
others believe Tom Jones, his former
manager, has had his car for a few
moments Loquacious Tom can talk
enough in three minutes to convince
Papke he is still the greatest middle
weight extant
Morris in fight Woman.
Carl Morris Is still "white hoping"
The Tulsa, Oklahoma, giant will get
another chance to prove his worth
when he collides with Frank Moran
for 20 rounds on Decoration day Mor
ris has Improved somewhat from tho
lumbering, slow thinking Carl of sev
eral years ago. Only recently he took
"Uunboat Smiths measure In ten
rounds. His showing convinced his
manager that Carl could defeat Moran.
Big Frank is to get a Guarantee of
J20.000 for this fight.
Moran has not been Idling since his
defeat at the hands of Jess Wiliard.
Francois has been monologuing with
the pictures of the big scrap, and has
added many thousands to bis Income
since that affair. Moran can get ex
tended booking, but $20,000 looks
mighty tempting, for a morsel like
Morris, and he jumped at the offer.
Moran has decided to 'lay off Wil
iard for a return match until the
champion has fulfilled hie thirty-week
contract with the circus.

morning. -
Coach Tom Dwyer has offered the
local high school baseball leasers an
other game in which to come back and
give his chesty Miners a cleaning. The
game will likely be played at Itio
Orande park next Thursday afternoon,
that Is, If the high school lads are
ready for the contest. The game should
be a hummer, as the Miners Just nosed
out the high boys in the first encounter.
Chris Fox. one of the High's best ath
letes, has donned the baseball span
gles and he was in the game all the
time against the Miners. Let's hope
some more of the High's best ball toss
era will show some life and follow Fox
to the ball yard

any startling upsets In the preseason
dope
True, there have been two or three
minor surprises, buU In the main, the
teams have run true to the form ex
pected of them when the reviews were
made.
In the American league, the Red Soz
are living up to advance notices by
clinging near the top. Even the loss of
Speaker hasn't diminished their power.
That's largely because Olof Henrikson
has hopped into the gap and filled It
admirably The Swede has been belting
the horsehlde a la Sneaker and In the
outfield his work, although not up to
Speaker's standard, has been excep-
tlonal. I
The Tankees were flirured to be In
the fight and they are. If It hadn't
been for Walter Johnson handing them
three beatines In three trials, the re
juvenated New York outfit would be
far higher in the precentage column
than they are right now. They have
found but little trouble in beatinsr up
other twlrlers
Tigers Back Pitchers.
The Tigers were conceded as certain
certain battlers for the bunting "if the
pitching staff shows strength." But it
hasn't The same weakness that lost
the championship for the Detrolters last
season has cropped out again this sea
son. The Tigers have marvelous of
fensive power. They have some great
fielders but they lack pitchers who
can stem the assault of the enemy.
The White Sox so far have disap
pointed their rooters. They haven't
shown much The Chlcagoans hae
power in everj department. So far t
has been misdirected Probably they'll
round Into form within another week
or two If thev don't, the fault is Clar
ence Rowland s He haB the material.
If properly handled, that White Sox
team ought to steamroll practically
averymmg mai sianas in its way.
Ilrotvna Do Fairly teIL
The St Louis Browns' have done fair
ly well but not nearly as well as was
ex pec tea or tnem. However, the first
few weeks have demonstrated that
Fielder Jones has some great pitchers
and a brilliant fielding team Just as
soon as his boys start to hammer the
b.all they will become dangerous fac
tors In the race.
Cleveland has been something of a
surprise. In the preliminary dope
Speaker wasn't figured as a cog In the
machine The Indians were consigned
to seventh place at the best. The com
ing of Speaker, howeer, has put spirit
Into the team. It is playing baseball
beyond Itself It may continue But at
the best the Indians cannot finish bet
ter than sixth, unless some new miracle
is performed.
Senators Running to Form.
The Senators are running true to
form also The frequent use of Walter
Johnson lias enabled the Washington
outfit to keep out of the cellar. The
"Speed King" can be depended upon to
continue that stunt throughout the sea
son, but the best that can happen to
Griffith's men is fifth place Sixth
place seems likeliest
As to the Athletics. They are doing
better than expected
Shifting to the National league, we
will choose the Giants as the first topic
of conversation Armed with a bunch
of hitters, with a fine fielding team
and a good looking pitching staff, they
flounder near the bottom. What's the
reason' Even McGraw doesn't know
Lack of fighting spirit seems to be the
only assignable cause Of course, the
Giants have bumped Into some tough
luck so Jar, but even that innot alibi
their poor showing to date
Phillies Show Well.
The Phillies have shown up surpris
ingly well against the eastern tennis
They fattened their pirienti-ri it tin
expense of the lowl Giants tv h 'i
they begin mixing things freely with
brand of baseball today that Is as good
as that which won them the pennant a
year ago
The Cuba have surprised. In the pre
season outlook they were ranked in
the "dark horse" class. Then came their
training camp battles with the Phillies
and their inglorious defeats. Right
then and there they were shorn of the
"dark horse" title. They became nags
In the estimation of the fans. But the
Phillies beatings seemed to have a good
effect on the Cubs It showed Josephus
Tinker thfe weakness In hla first lineup
He made shifts and the Cubs are do
ing very, very welL
Ilodgers JVeed in Hit.
The Dodgers haven't hit their stride
yet. They have plajed In and out base
ball. Theif pitchers have worked well
but their clubbers haven't supported
them. Until the do, the Brooklynltes
must be content with a place somewhat
removed from the top notch.
Cincinnati slied up In our preseason
opinion as a dangerous outfit. No hap
penings since then have caused us to
shift our opinion Herzoc is piloting a
mighty good ball team and It will cause
trouble for the nennant battlers rt&rht
through the year, unless misfortune vis
its them
Brnvs Ilnrd to Bent.
The Braves are accomplishing the ex
pected. A team fortified as is Stall
tngs's. Is a hard one to beat. It is the
class of the Tener circuit on paper, and
after three weeks of fighting it re
mains the favorite for the bunting
glories
The Cardinals have displayed a bet
ter brand of baseball than was pre
dicted but they have traveled beyond
their normal speed Another month and
the chances are they will be far re
moved from first dh ision height.
As to the Pirates, the cellar for them.

Dr. Ketchersid, El Paso, Texas. '
Dear Doctor:
I am so well pleased with the treatment that you gave me for
my piles and am feeling so much better than I have felt for years
that I wish to tell you and especially the public about it.
I suffered with this trouble for nearly fifty years and during the
last twenty-five years was often kept away from my work on account
of them. I tried everything I could hear of with nothing more than
temporary relief resulting. The first treatment you gave me stopped
all pain, protrusion and bleeding and six completed my cure.
I feel grateful for the relief I have experienced and will be
pleased to tell any sufferer about my case and the easy, painless
method you employ.
Sincerely yours.

This is merely one of hundreds of such letters on file in my of
fice, originals of which can be seen at any time.
I AM STILL OFFERING $100.00 FOR ANY

I will treat any deserving charity case free of charge.
I ALSO TREAT. WITH THE SAME SUCCESS. RUPTURE,
