games at an earlier hour, has deter
mined to install a double set of turn

Secrets of Good Advertising
Concentration All Important J
An eighth rich advertisement in one newspaper will bring much bigger results than a two-inch advertisement in four newspapers. " Don't skip around from one newspaper to another. , Success in advertising comes from hammer1 ing 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.
Saturday evening, March 16, will be
he commencement of the elimination
contests to be staged at the East Chicago Coliseum rink In the welterweight
lass, and the winner of the Zanders-
inger go will meet Wild Cat Rube
Ferns, the crack Kansas City welterweight, who is at present in Califor-
la where he is meeting some of the
best boys on the coast.; Jimmy Hurst,
manager of Ferns, has promised Man
ger Simpson that he can have the
match against Zanders or any other good welterweight the Kast Chicago
lub may select.
Much Interest Is being taken in the
Zanders and Singer eight-round bout which will be the main attraction of
the evening. It will be remembered that when the boxing lid was oft at Gary hat these two scrappers furnished the steel city boxing enthusiasts one of the best fights that has ever
been staged in Lake county and If we
are not amiss they will give the fans
plenty of excitement next Saturday
night.
Zanders Is the coming welter of the
world and Is the challenger at 14
pounds. He is not one of the fighters
who Just talks, but Is one who Is there and Is able to stand up and deliver the goods. His manager has tried to match
him with Ray Bronson, the Indianapolls welter, who is trying to hold a
claim at that weight, but when Ernie's
name is mentioned Bronson remains in the silent column, as he knows he dare
not take any chances with this battler.
Henry Singer is also hailed as a clev
er gamester and even though he may
not stack up against Zanders he has promised to give the Kansas City hoy a good lacing if chances come his way.
The curtain raiser will bring to
gether Jack McKsnna, a clever East Chicago boy, and Mac Webber, the New York bantam, who has a record of beating Joe Rivers and several other fast gamesters In the east. He Is one of the best boys in his division and will make the East Chicago crack go some to hold
Following1 the disagreement of the
jury in the case against William O'Con
nell for "aiding and abetting a prize
fight in ' Judge Fry's court yesterday,
the new case' against the gymnasium
proprietor was set for March 18.
The sealed verdict was read . at 10
o'olock yesterday morning, and the
jury, it was found, stood nine for ac
qulttal and three for conviction. This
was a great surprise, as It was not sup
posed that the state had much of a case
against O'Connell.
O'Connell was arrested Jan. S. when
two city detectives went into his gym
naslum at 500 South State street and
arrested Tommy Gary, lightweight, and
v lncent Ketchel, featherweight, who
were indulging In a friendly training bout. . The cases against Gary and
Ketchel' were'non-sulted Monday, the court deciding it had no jurisdiction, as
his own. Young McKenna is in good shape for the go, having done, considerable training and road work and ought to be in fit condition. In the second preliminary will be seen Jack Doig, the crack Gary lightweight, and Stockyards Tommy Mur
phy, who defeated Three-Round Gray of Gary at East Chicago last Friday night. Murphy will aim to dispose of his opponent in short order and Doig will try and do likewise, as each has been promised a semi-wlndup If he wins. Taking advantage of this fact, the bout is expected to be fast and furious and alone will be worth taking In. The third event will be an eight-
round seml-wlndup between Young Christie of Chicago and Kid Krug of Hammond, who is gaining some repu
tation as a fighter. Young Christie is j the charge was a felony
a brother or tiirnie zanders and the two
brothers will be seen in dally practice work at East Chicago this week and expect to hang up their names at the
head of the list next Saturday night. Young Krug is also in the best of shape and will have the support of the Ham
mond fans who will be with him at the
ringside. Eddie Santry, the ex-champion light
weight of the world, who is well known to Lake county fans, will act as referee
while Tommy Downey and Bob Alex
ander, two white hopes, will be time
keepers. Chief McCormlck, who un
derstands the boxing game from A to
Z, will be at the ringside to see that all bouts comply with the state laws governing boxing. In order to give the mill men and the general public of the Calumet region the boxing matches will henceforth be staged on Saturday
evening instead of Friday. The cur
tain raiser will be staged promptly at 8:30 o'clock and from all appearances Manager Simpson will greet a packed house. Tickets are selling fast and are
now on sale at Meeker & McCune's.

Los Angeles, March 13. The impres
slon prevails in sporting circles that
Joe Rivers will have his hands full
when he stacks up against clever Jack White of Chicago next Saturday after
noon In their scheduled twenty-round
fight at Vernon. So general has this
feeling become that a number of local
admirers of the Chicagoanhave placed
their money on him. White's fine ap
pearance and showing in training
bouts have won him many admirers,
hut still it is difficult to convince the average bettor here that the Mexican
can be defeated by White, and he is
held a strong favorite at 10 to 7.
The heavy rain of this morning ln-
terrerea witn white's road work, so the Chicago slugger hiked to the base
ball grand stand at "Vernon and did five miles under the seats, where the go
ing was good and .dry: He then re
turned to his training camp at Doyle's
and under the covered platform boxed
eight rounds with Fred Gilmore.
in the afternoon White, who Is a
glutton for work, boxed nine fast
rounds at breakneck speed. He went three rounds with Eddie ratten, two
with Harry Gilmore Jr., and four with ! Fred Gilmore. Jack finished well sat- '
lsfied with himself and the Gilmores!
declared they could not wish for him i
to be in better shape.

grappung game, wis nrst appearance ' in this vicinity was two weeks ago when he defeated Kid Bloomson of Grasselll in two falls in ten minutes.
Bill now issues a challenge through the sporting columns of this paper that he will take on any one of his weight at 150 pounds. To back this up he ; says he has 50 to defend his title, and '

STUFFY M'INNIS IS HURT AGAIN San Antonio, Tex., March 18. Beaten, 10 to 9, by San Antonle, the Athletics regulars suffered their first reverse of the season. The defeat did not compare with the accident that happened to Mclnnls in the sixth inning. The little first baseman turned his right ankle in sliding Into second base and
was carled to the clubhouse. An examination of the injury did not show the extent of the hurt. The ankle appears badly strained and it probably will be a week before Mclnnls can play again. The redeeming part of the Athletics' work was the pitching of
Gipe. The big Californlan mowed down the locals with ease.

CALENDAR OF SPORTS FOR THE
THIRY PUS MODEL FIGHT SPEACIAL
Those promoting the Burns-McFar-land eye-decorating contest at Kenosha Friday night are taking the right course to keep the boxing game open near Chicago. Emll Thlry, who was one of those who helped keep the Chicago fans who attended the McFarlandMurphy fight at South Bend out all night, says there is going to be no delay when Packey and the Gothamite mix. He has Dromlsed that the last
fight will be over at 11 o'clock, which will make It possible for the special train to get back to Chicago before 1 o'clock. This promise, if kept, will make a big hit with local fans and will entiae many who otherwise would not make
the trip. Thiry has even gone furth

Both the artistic Mr. Burns and his
model put In a rather strenuous dey yesterday. Packey stepped five rounds
with Hugo Kelly at a local gymnasium
and sailed into the middleweight as If
he meant to stop him. The milling was good while it lasted, both Packey and Hugo displaying cleverness in the extreme. Veteran ring followers who
saw the session stated that Packey at
present Is boxing better than at any
other time In his career. Packey ' also
went two rounds with Johnny Con

Burns who has been dodging box

with Al Goodale and Jack Roberts at the Monroe baths, where he is work
