Nelson Will Tour World; Plans Start in 4 Weeks. Battling Nelson announced yesterday that he was planning a farewell tour of the world. The tour depends upon the condition of Nelson's already badly broken hands, which lately received the attention of Bonesetter Reese and which the Battler plans to give a still further rest. Nelson leaves tonight for Kansas City for a four-week theatrical engagement, at the end of which, if his hands have rounded into good shape, he will leave for Australia, where Promoter Mcintosh wants him for three- battles. On the way he will stop at Honolulu, engage In one battle, and work two weeks In the Island theaters. In Australia the Dane will, in addition to his fights', work nine weeks In theaters throughout the island. His itinerary then includes Manila, Ceylon, New Zealand, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Monte Carlo, Paris, Berlin, "Vienna, London and Dublin. Moving picture films of all the great fights in which Nelson has engaged will be taken and exhbited in the various theaters in which the Dane appears. Nelson already has more than $75,000 worth of engagements in sight.

TEA AT ONE DOLLAR A DOTTLE PROVES, IT IS TEA! MANY RAVE

I Wow ) -vJ' J.

Passengers and train crews arriving in Chicago from Kansas are telling yarns about their experiences on snow-stalled trains this week. "It's been a great trip and cost the Sante Fe a mint of money." said William Landergan. conductor of one train. "You see, the road paid for all the food. Kansas Is a dry sate. The water didn't agree with some of the passengers, so when a stranger carr.e down the car aisle with a basketful of bottles he aroused some interest. "Want some tea??' he would ask, with a wink. " 'Sure.' the passengers would answer, and would give a dollar In exchange. " 'Don't drink until I get out of here,' warned the peddler. 'I don't want to get In trouble.' "AH the bottles purchased were y tucked out of eight. About fiftywere sold. After the fellow Jumped off they were produced. It was tea. all right, nothing else. The mayor was appealed to. and he only laughed."

Goodman upset Clarence twice with

left chfn punches, once for a second and- again for two. Several other times Forbes slipped on the shining

canvas, which the club had neglected to sprinkle with the customary resin. Forbes did not box as well as he can. lie was wild in his delivery at times, and Goodman's covering up , tactics, when wading In, bothered him much. The Wolgast style of coming close behind a bulwark of forearms disturbs all the. clever' fellow. Danny used the system with good effect last night. It was an earnest, savage encounter very step of the route. Forbes finished like a stake horse, getting an even break ir. the final two periods. ' The boys did not waste any time after the opening bell. They boxed savagely in the first round with honors fairly even, although Danny landed a good left hand punch. Forbes used a straight left nicely. . The second round was a vicious one.

with Goodman having a little edge. Danny fouled Clarence just at the bell, but- It did not hurt him. Forbes cut loose in the third session - and ripped home enough lefts and rights to get the shade. Goodman staggered him with a left to the chin at the gong. In the fourth they went at It more cautlonsly. Forbes slipped to the floor once; In dodging a left swing. Clarence whanged Danny around some early in the session, but the "daredevil" evened up later. Goodman pumped them home in wicked fashion In the fifth, and had

staggered his man, but Goodman was too tough. It was an even round. The windup fighters weighed in at Nate Lewis place in Chicago at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Forbes was under 128 and Goodman was two pounds heavier. Larney Llchtenstein explained that Danny had drunk some water and eaten a big meal, and every
