G CONTEST "Tf

A VAUDEVILLE PERFORMANCE

LI 'CAREY TO HOLD BANTAM SCRAP

A vaudeville performance was enacted at Cox & Co.'a bowling alleys . Wednesday night when the clerks of the local postoffice defeated the carriers In a three-game boiling contest by a' margin of 140 poins. ' The meeting of the two : teams was similar to a performance . that can be seen at a ten-cent show, as the acrobatic stunts of the bowlers In trying to keep back of the foul line were superior to most of the amateur acrobats. The three leading characters In the performance were M. Frame, W. Horst and M. Lauerman. These three men were both comical and superb bowlers. Mr. Lauerman was continually doing the split and his good bowling netted the carriers the large average of 113 pins. W. Horst played the part of a comedian and his dancing and whist

ling .were ' amusing. Horst proved to

be the Champion bowler "on the mail!

carirers team and was only excelled! by the wonderful ' bowling of Hughes by, a margin , of four pins, M. Frame, the leading man In the performance,

gave an imitation or Pitcher Joss's rise ball, which probably , put a small dent in the alley. The mail carriers are putting all their spare evenings In practicing bowling in an effort to get back Into shape so that in the next meeting between Uncle Sam's employes they will stand a better show against the, clerks. Following are the averages of both teams of the thrpe-game series: Clerks Av. Carriers Av. Hughes V139W. Horst 133 Herrhwrg . . . . . . 129!Pfcarson ........118

Matches Webster and Attell for Feb. 22. Is Angeles, Jan. 28. Having grown tired of the game of shuttle-cock between himself and Sid Hester for the

Nelson-Wolgast fight, Promoter McCarey announced last night that Instead of a lightweight championship battle he would stage a forty-five round contest between Dan "Webster and Monte Attell for the bantamweight championship of the world on Feb. 22. "Webster and Attell have met twice In

ten round no-decision affairs and both claim the bantam championship. The forty-five round battle will settle the dispute. As Los Angeles forbids fights within the city limits, the contest will be held In the suburb of Vernon.

will not be tolerated In the Central league. The interview was inspired by a report sent around the circuit to the eftsct that Bert - Annls of - South Bend has an Interest in Grand Rapids, South Bend and Evansville. "You can say for me that Bert . Annls does not own 1 cent of the Evansville club," said President ' Carson. "Annis and Grant are not even in touch with each other. To tell the truth, they are not even friendly."

$7,500 FOB FISH POLE-TURK GO Callahan and Houseman Raise Offer for Wrestling Match.

Lou Houseman and Jimmy Callahan evldentlv are In earnest In their attempt to promote a finish wrestling match between Zbyszko and Mahmout. They-addressed a letter to the wrest

lers yesterday in which they raised their proposed purse to $7,500, the other conditions to be the same as in their original bid. Three referees were named In the bid, with the provision that If .none proved satisfactory Assistant Chief of Police Schuettler should pick the arbiter. "We'jl bid as much as any one," said Houseman last night. "Cal and I would bid $7,500 for a handicap match if we thought the people wanted such a contest, but are anxious to land a finish match. If our purse does not meet the approval of the wrestlers we will guarantee them $7,500 and allow them the privilege of a liberal percentage. The bout probably will be "staged at Dexter Park pavilion, provided we are fortunate enough to secure It."

BRUSH DENIES HE IS

OUT

New York, Jan. 28. John T. Brush, late this afternoon, denied that he is to retire as president of the New Tork baseljali club or that he even contemplated such a move. "I do not know where the story comes from," he said. "I have never even intimated that I wanted to step out on account of ill health. I am not ready to stop and when I do. decide to quit I will let the public know." Brush announced that Mathewson has signed a contract for the coming season, which ends all talk about Matty being dissatisfied with his berth

If you have sore feet, tired- - feet, sweaty feet, lame feet, tender feet, smelly feet, corns, callouses or bunIons, read what happened to Mrs. Crockett of Jeffersonville. TIZ DID IT. Mr. Crockett says: "After the second treatment she walked downstairs one foot at a time. She has not been able to walk downstairs before in past five years, except by . stepping; down on each step with one foot at a time. ' 111 Is is remarkable. Send five more boxes." No matter what ails your feet or what under heaven you have used without getting relief. Just use TIZ. It's different. It acts right oft. It cures sore feet to stay cured. It's the only foot remedy ever mad which acts on the principle of drawing out all the poisonous exudations which cause sore feet. Powders and other remedies merely clog up the pores. TIZ cleans them out and. keeps them clean. Tou will feel better the first time if s used. Use It a week and you can forget you ever had sore feet. There is nothing on earth that can compare with It. TIZ is for sale at all druggists, 25 per box, or direct. If you wish, from "Walter Luther Dodge &

Those Ulen's Pure Worsted Suits at $10 Have been pronounced by everyone that saw them as the greatest bargain in Men's Suits that has ever been placed before the public. They are suits that yoii would not think to buy at any time for lessrthan 18.00 and if it was not for the singular circumstance as described in our advertisement of last week, these suits would never be offered at the unheard of price at 10.00. They are not a big lot of one pattern, .either, but you may select from sixteen different styles, all handsome patterns, plenty 'of the nice serge; blues,, smoke, grays, olive, browns and black mixtures; well tailored throughout; coats are serge lined and the geileral appearance clearly shows that they were made by a manufacturer who caters to the nest of trade and keeps up the standard of his merchandize. The sizes run from 33 to 42, and in stout models for the men with all extra large waist measures;
