COURT IT 10 STOP JEFNOISOII BOUT Colored Fighter's Trial for Assault Will Not, Come Up Until After Fight.

New York, "Feb. 3. Fight followers who have been worrying for fear Jack Johnson might not be able to keep his engagement with Jim Jeffries on July 4 next, owing to the black champion's alleged attack on a little negro named Norman Pindar, need fret no longer. The colored champion's case will take Its regular place on the calendar "and, according to the rotation system now in vogue In the courts, will not be reached until late next July at the earliest, when In all probability the big fistic affair will have been settled. "Lil Artha" appeared before Judge Mulqueen yesterday morning to plead not guilty to the indictment and, after persistent application by Assistant District Attorney Jacobl, Johnson's bail was increased from $,000 to $2,500. Mr. Jacob! wanted to make the bond $10,000, but Johnson's lawyer put up a tearful wail and persuaded Judge Mulqueen to make it $2,500. The colored fighter did not have any bondsman on hand and was allowed by the Judge to spend the remainderof the morning in an effort to dig up the required additional $1,500. The champion scooted all around town without avail. When he returned to the court In the afternoon he interrupted a case to tell Judge Mulqueen that it was impossible to get the $1,500. "I can't raise $2,500, your honor," spoke up Johnson. "Won't $1,500 do? I've got to get back to Buffalo tonight for my show." . Judge Mulqueen conferred with District Attorney Whitman, who was on the bench with him, and then told Jack that $1,500 would do. The cash was deposited with the city chamberlain and Johnson then hit for the Buffalo trail. - .

FORMER YALE CAPTAINS TURN AGAINST GAME New Haven. Conn., Feb. 3. From Tale's former football captains comes a lusty demand for the most radical reform in the playing rules of the gridiron ever made. The Yale Daily News today published letters from Gordon Brown, nephew of J. Pierpont Morgan, and captain of the 1901 eleven, and Ray Tompkins, captain in '84. Tompkins favors taking up the rugby game. He admits that the game as played at present is too dangerous to be allowed. Brown says that the proper thing to do is to put the game hack where it was twenty years ago and add modlficatloas to the rules which will keep seven men in the rush line till the ball Is put into play, abolish the forward pass and abolish compact interference.

He said to a reporter today that there is no mystery about the sale, that it yas his money which paid for the horse and that he is left in the are o Frank Taylor because he is a good trainer and because it would not be worth while to take him to Kentucky, as he now has very few horses in training. The first thing Mr. Madden did was to insure Fitz Herbert for $40,000.

block of their 1,500 point match for the

18.2 balk, line title of the world at Orchestra hall last night, taking the section by a count of 500 to 452, mak

ing the total score 1,000 for Cline and

95 for Demarest.

This gives Cline a leeway of 20o

points for their final battle tonight, and

the Phlladelphlan now has a good opportunity of getting away with the money.

Although Demarest started much

better than on the preceamg nigm, Cline showed greater improvement and

played more consistently. Demarest succeeded In pulling oft the highest run

of the match so far when he made 14 1 in his eighth Inning. This carried him to within twenty points of a tie with his opponent, and he was within thir

teen points of the mark in the eleventh inning, but after that Cline braced up and steadily worked farther away from

the Chlcagoan.

Cline's aggressive playing showed

best when most neeaea. in ms nur-

teenth, fchortiy after IDemartest !had made the 147, Cline made a 77. In the eighteenth he ran 54 and In the twenty-ninth he threatened to -beat

b V , v , . Nq invention of this decade will Have a more potent influence upon the business world than the new cordless switch-board. It satisfies a trade . need the growing demand for its installation is positive proof of peculiar value. u Aggressive merchants, dependent upon the telephone for their orders have long pondered over the problem of proper distribution of calls to their various counters or. departments. Perhaps they feel the need of more telephone service, to prevent overcrowding of their lines during the rush period of the day, and to avoid loss of trade that must inevitably result when busy- , signals are given their patrons. The problem is now happily solved the cordless board is an instrument about 14 inches high and about 18 inches in width and 10 inches in depth. Any number of lines from one to three may connect this board with" the central exchange. Wires terminating in instruments radiate to counters or departments as desired. The answering of calls and their distribution to the proper departments is easily handled by a bookkeeper or cashier. Values of this board are obvious clerks are not forced to run back and forth between counters and telephone. It thus saves clerk-time and ' prevents confusion. Customers need not hold the line and wait thus preventing other patrons from reaching the' store. V. "But the supreme value of "the board Hies in the ease with which additional lines may be installed. No merchant having a cordless board need lose trade because customers find the line busy. It is a flexible service for it ' jsermits the use of all lines at once. No busy-signals are given patrons unless all lines are busy. ' - The importance of this "problem of the busy-signal" must not be underestimated. It is vital to trade.. Any device, which stops the " buzzer " is worthy of earnest investigation. V Customers will not call several times before reaching the retailer. The successful business man realizes that fact and takes steps to keep his trade. He makes it easy and convenient for them to telephone to his store. By . means of the cordless board the patron may easily and quickly reach a favorite clerk who "kows just what I want." It brings added satisfaction to the customer. ' -I -

Milwaukee, Wis., Feb. 3. When Jimmy Clabby, the Hammond welterweight, and Mike ("Twin") Sullivan, claimant of the welterweight championship, come 'together Friday night before the National Athletic club at the Hippodrome there will be more than the pay each one receives at stake.. It will.be in the form of an elimination contest for ' the" welterweight title. ' Mike claims it, but many insist that he is not entitled to it any more than a few

pothers. Clabby, according to ring eth

ics, has as good a claim as any of them, for over three months ago he deposited 11.000 here to go as a side bet in a match -for the title, and fail

ure on the part of the claimants to cover the same would mean that they

did not want -Jimmy's game.

Jimmy Gardner, Harry Lewis and Mike Twin were he most consistent claimants, "but none of them accepted the defl. Mike Twin is now matched wih Jimmy, "but there is no side, bet and npthing a stakt whatever, but if eiher one should win It would help in deciding who Is the real champion.

CALENDAR OF SPORTS

FOR THE WEEK.

( The weight is supposed to be 143 at

3 o'clock, which is nearer the English welter poundage, but that matter will be setled when the Twin gets here. He is expected to arrive in Chicago today and come right on to Milwaukee. There are few more clever than the Twin, and, as Clabby is also clever, a scientific contest should result. On form Clabby has a splendid chance of outpointing his rival, for he has been boxing in the best of shape lately while Mike has ben taking matters easy down east. Jack Dougherty, a former lightweight star here, but now a welterweight, will clash with Billy Morehead. Billy has been like a colt of late, and says he will teach Jack some new ideas which he gained down south. Jack is

wililng to be taught. Steve Kinney, still another lightweight crack here, will meet a newcomer Angelo Izzo, the Italian champion and there promises to be a mixing of nationalities. Walter Weber, a bantam, and Eddie Bliss of Cleveland, Ohio, will open the show.
