Socrots of Good Advertising
H
Concentration All Important 1
An eight-inch adrertisement in one newspaper will bring much bigger results than a two-inch adrertisement in four newspapers. Don't skip around from one newspaper to another. Success in advertising comes from hammering away at the same crowd. Pick out the newspaper which has the kind of readers you want for customers, and then stick. If you want to make an advertisement hit all you need to do is to talk to the reader of the newspaper as you talk across the counter the counter to a customer. Simply talk. That's all. Be , sincere about it. Let your words ring true. The people will listen. They like it, . The fact that your advertisement appears continuously in a reputable newspaper stimulates public confidence. Your shop advances step by step in the estimation of thousands of people who- may be months in getting around to make their first purchase. Originality may be good, but an advertisement that sells goods, even if copied, is better.
Jack Johnson is going to New York oday to sign articles for a ten-round
fight there early in March. Billy Gib
son, promoter of the Fairmont Athletic club. -wKed Jack that he could have
$30,000 for-his end and the champ immediately flashed word that he would start east to clinch the match.
Oibson neglected to mention John
son s prospective opponent, dui jacK,
like a real champion who fears none, says he don't care whom he boxes. As Jbe Jeannette has sailed for France, Gibson ;must have Carl Morris or Al Palzer in mind. Probably it is Morris,
Tom O'Rourke has Palzer and Ss
matchmaker for a rival club
the Na
tional.
"I think I am better now than ever
in my lire and will need but a . tew days' work to beat anybody in the world over the ten-round route," said Johnson last night. "I don't care
whom Gibson gets for me. -Til beat
him. whether it is Palzer or Morris.
They might get Jeannette back from
France. It will be all the same. None
of those fellows can hit me hard twice
in a half hour. That $30,000 looks pretty soft. '"Do you know that I feel so good that I'd like to box two fellows the same night. I might consider a proposition such as Tommy Coleman went through with, ' boxing ten men one round each in Gotham. That would be great sport for me.' Say, confidentially, if Jim Flynn stays ten rounds with me in Nexada next July then I'm a highly overrated fighter." "How about the boxing commission In New York, Jack?" he was asked.' "Oh, I guess that will be all right, Gibson must have had some assurances
before going ahead with the match. I
do not anticipate any trouble on that score."
The champ will depart on on elg!
teen-hour train today, if his arrest f
speeding does not prevent, and will
back Sunday for a week of stage work.
The present week's engagement was canceled, to be completed when the
fighter has time to spare. Jack will
stay in New York Just long enough to sia-n the papers, then board a return
train.
RITCHIE FIGHTS ;..
PAGKEY'S BATTLE AND GETS DRAW
Coast Boy Puts Up a .Great
Bout Against Young Erne.
Philadelphia. Feb. 8. Willie Ritchie,
substituting for his stable mate, Packey McFarland, held the Grays Ferry star. Young Erne, to a draw in six
rounds of pretty fighting last night.
A big crowd packed Tack McGulgan's
National A. C. arena for the show, despite the run-out by McFarland, and
they were well repaid for" their pains. For Ritchie made as good a fight as any one could ask, giving Erne as good as he took all the way. Both boys were willing and they made each, round three-minute periods of real fighting. Announcers outside the building yelled through megaphones that Ritchie was subbing for McFarland. This halted but fcw,' all had heard of Ritchie's great fight with FreSdle Welsh on the coast and knew Packey's partner would give them a run for their money. They saw a dandy fight for taking the risk. Ritchie had a shade In the first rund and lost the fourth. The others were 'about even, and a decision either way would have been a hair line one. Rltchte Miowed a great defense and also convinced Erne that he could punch some with his right hand. Erne weighed 186 before the, bout and Ritchie was'a pound and a half lighter. Ritchie disclosed a pretty left Jab in the first and cleverly avoided Erne's right. The. second round saw little difference, both going along cautiously. Ritchie stung up Erne in the third with a right hook to the Jaw and the local boy forced the fighting, shaking up his man with hard smashes to the face. The fourth round was the best of the bout. Erne forced the fighting and drew blood with a short right. Ritchie showed to -best advantage" at long range, while Erne was most effective fighting clos'S, Ritchie continued to Jab effectively in the fifth and sixth, but Erne's generalship kept matters fairly even.

league for a position as umpire.
Will G. Erminie Schaefer, the come
dian first sacker of the Nationals, come
through with any more original plays such as stealing first base next season?
Many experts think he'll discover some
new stunt to work on his opponents.
Schaefer is one of the most active
thinkers I've ever seen," says Hughey Jennings. "I expect anything- from
him."
Gabby Street, the Nationals' back
stop, who has caught 931 games during
the past nine years, says he expects to increase his record the coming season to 1.000 games. Infielder J. G. Priest will again sport
a Highlander's uniform this year. He
did ho last year for a brief spell, but his advent into fast company from In
dianapolis was not auspicious and he was released to the Richmond .team. With Richmond he was a playing demon, swatting .358 and fielding .951. Manager Wolverton is hopeful that the youngster will bring his bush league habits with him this time and make good in the majors. ' Frank'Chance's record as leader embraces four wins out of six starts; Jennings, three out of five starts; McGraw's, three out of nine starts (with Giants); Mack, four out of twelve starts; Clark's, four out of -twelve starts (since 1900).
