ATHLETIC CLUB SIGNS FIGHTERS ON FIRST CARD Plans for the first fight which will (be staged at Eagles hall were discussed last night by the Quaker City i A"4letic club. The outs will be held Son Tuesday evening, January 18. Lou Bauman of Cincinnati, will -be third man in the ring. Terry Nelson of Philadelphia, and Tommy Dillon of Dayton, will appear in the wind-up. Nelson has not been defeated since he came west and Dillon's record is to well known to need comment. He has fought 134 fights and has been defeated only three times. Red Snyder of Cincinnati, and Tommy Gary are matched for ten rounds. They should furnish plenty of amusement, for it's a toss up which is ttie better boy. Jack Cronin of Muncie, and Frankie Mason of Fort Wayne, will step ten rounds in what may prove to one of the fastest bouts of the evening. Boi boys are as quick as a flash and both are hard hitters, considering their weight. ARTHUR STIGALL IN GOOD FORM FOR HIS FIGHT Two colored boys are going to be staged at Billy Benson's show to be held at Eagles' ball on January 14, and tne of the boys who will appear is "Lil" Arthur Stlgall, of Altoona, Pa., who is well known to local boxing fans, having appeared here on one or two occasions. j Stigall is in splendid condition, be-; ing only three pounds overweight, but. he wants to be in the best possible condition when he loosens up here, so yesterday afternoon he started training and gave an exhibition before a crowd of colored rooters that showed a great improvement in form since he entered a local ring. Gilbert Epps, Billy Tracey and other local boys put on the gloves with Stigall, and he toyed with them, show- . ing some fancy work and holding them all off without any trouble. It was the concensus of-opinion of those who saw Arthur work last year that he has Improved a lot, and is in better condition that he has ever been. Stigall fights at' 135, and at present weighs but 138, so some idea may be gathered of the care he has been taking of himself. He is ready right now to enter' the ring and give a good account of himself, and a bout between him and Terry Nelson should be a slashing affair, but there is no chance of that taking place until after Nelson fights Tommy Dillon on January 18 before the QuaRer City Athletic club. In the meantime Benson is making every effort to secure a faster boy than Nelson to stack up against Stigall, and little Arthur says that Benson can not get anybody in this part ofthe country fast enough to keep him warm. There is no doubt but that Stigall is in fine form. In his workout yesterday he was as quick as a flash and toyed with those who faced him. His muscles appeared to quiver for work, but he could not loosen up against the amateurs that stood up against him, and he worked under a leasch. HIGH SCHOOL TEAM READY FOR STIVERS Meranda has not returned from his trip east and will not be in the line-up Friday night when the Richmond high school basketball teams meets Stivers at the Coliseum. Jessup and Pitts probably will play the guard positions with Parker at center and Brown and Porter at forward. The boys are working hard and tihow the benefit of their experience on their recent trip. They had a hard work-out last night at the Coliseum, and did not look like the same team. They entered into the work with a snap and clash that bodes ill for their opponents. After the game Brown remarked that one thing they had learned while away was that they could be' beaten, and that expressed the feeling apparent in all the boys. ROSE BUDS DEFEAT K. OF G, KRAWLERS Local bowlers were out in force last night when a fair crowd at the City alleys witnessed the opening games of the 1916 season between the Rosebuds and the Krawlers of the Kaysee league. The Rosebuds won two out of three games, but not without a struggle. With 184 for high score and an average of 164, Carroll won the honors of the evening. Summary: Rosebuds. Players Broderick , .

PEACE IN BALL CIRCLES ASKED BY COUNTY FANS

BY. H. H. DiDDLEBOCK. ' Let us have peace. Sport is an unquestionable part of our lives and few If any of us are going t? live a hundred years so while we are occupying this planet let us do all we can to make life. a merry one. Once in a while somebody is going to tread on our toes but worry not and accept the apology offered just as you were forced to accept the stepping. AH of this rot Is allegorical but we are going to get Into the. meat of the matter and if you are patient and keep on reading perhaps you will understand why this article Is being inflicted upon you. ' If you have read this far you could not have failed to notice the opening paragraph. That is the subject under discussion today. Then too there is one more little phrase which with your permission, we will present, "Let us have harmony at any cost." ; Sport Proves Success. "Baseballically" speaking Richmond has been very fortunate. The I. S. L. was a flivver but local interests took up the club and after dropping the heavyweights put a team in the field which cleaned up most of the clubs in this vicinity. Richmond was furnished with good, clean baseball last summer and the prospects are that sport of the same nature will be offered when the snow ceases to flurry and Old Sol unbosoms his steam pipes. Now let us bre'ak Into that peace and harmony stuff. We ask for peace because we know there is some little feeling among men who have done much to promote the intrests of the national game in Rich mond and vicinity but their grievances are so slight that it should be a simple matter to adjust them. Toward the close of last season Williamsburg, llagerstown, Greensfork and Cambridge City were all at sword's points and refused to entertain a proposition advanced by the Richmond club for a series of games for the county championship. While it is true some games were played they did not count for much because there

ATHLETES DEVELOP ENDURANC

BY FEASTIHG ON Sugar Furnishes Fuel, for Muscular Effort and Gives Almost Limitless Supply of Energy. . Cultivate a sweet tooth if you wish to cultivate endurance powers. "Sugar," the medicos say, "has wonderful food values; it is an excellent body builder and, best of all, it furnishes fuel for muscular effort and gives to its constant user a limitless supply of energy." And now came Hannes Koblemainer, the remarkable distance runner, Mel Sheppard, the veteran but ever wonderful sprinter who back up those medical opinions with recitals of their experiences. "Early in my youth I found that I was a fair runner, but I seemed to lack the necessary endurance," declares Kohlemainer. "One of my friends advised me to eat sugar. He suggested that I eat five or six lumps in the morning and the same number at night. "I tried the experiment and in less than a months I found that I could run double the distance of before and feel just as fresh. I never let a day go by without eating 12 or 15 sugar lumps or a large quantity of milk chocolate or other kinds of candy." SHEPPARD'S EXPERIENCE. "I was just a kid when I began racing and I had a fondness for sweets, says Sheppard. "In those early days' I worked in a sugar factory. Every time I passed any of the open barrels BANKERS' PROWESS OVERCOMES I, H. G. The Business Men's league opened its bowling season for 1916 last night at the "Y" alleys, when the Bankers and I H. C. teams rolled three games, the Bankers annexing two of them. The holiday rest appeared to have helped many of the men, ag their score, on the average, were a little better than before Christmas. Dingleg averaged 179 and made the high score, 197, starting off the new year by setting a record for himself. -Summary: . I. H. C.

It was tentatively 'agreed that bouts would be held every two weeks by each promoter, and that they would work in harmony.

was no regular schedule and the results could not be looked upon as deciding the supremacy of Wayne county. Letters Are Exchanged. Letters were hurled back and forth between the managers but Instead of settling matters the breach became widened , and harmony was lying around like a lost pup. Since the close of the season In October all the feeling of , antagonism which was aroused has died out and the managers are about ready to talk turkey. ,- Richmond will be supplied with Saturday afternoon games by the S. A .L, but there are many men who cannot

get away, from their places of busi ness on that day and they are beginning to ask if any plans are being made to furnish Sunday baseball. Several fans have suggested the formation of a Sunday league composed of the four towns named above and Richmond, with one other team if it can be secured to play a regular schedule during the season under the auspices of a commission with a representative from each town to see that everybody gets a square deal. Sport Pays Promoters. Sunday baseball In this section of the country has proved a popular sport and a good financial investment. While a big league could not live on the gate receipts from the games a league such as proposed would undoubtedly prqve profitable. Each team could pay a percentage of its gate receipts to the commission appointed who would also control the umpires and offer some suitable trophy to the winning club at the end of the season. The management of the Richmond club is ready to enter into such an organization and it only remains for the other towns to get in line. With harmony among the managers and players and all the teams fighting it out in a close race there is no reason why the fans in all the towns should not be furnished a better brand of baseball during 1916 than they had supplied to them for a number of years. SUGAR AND CANDY which was four or five times a day I used to grab a handful of the sugar and eat it. "I had amazing endurance powers in those days. No matter how far I ran, or how fast, I never seemed to get tired. "Eventually I quit that job and took another where sugar barrels were unknown. In a few months I began to notice a change in myself. The old stamina seemed gone. I grew fatigued after running only a few miles at a dog trot. I became discouraged and thought I was going back. Then one day heard about a doctor advising a man who was in a run-down condition to eat sugar. "I recalled that I'd quit eating sugar when I quit my other job and since then I lacked the old endurance. Right away I hustled out and bought a few pounds of sugar. I ate sizeable quantities of it every day and in a short time the old energy returned. And I've been eating sugar ever since." OTHER SUGAR EATERS. . Villar Kyronen, a Finish runner with an international reputation, dissolves a half dogen sugar lumps in a glass of water three times a day and drinks the mixture. Jean Bouin, world's chamion in the one hour races, eats a half dozen handfuls of sugar daily and doubles the dose on the days before he rates. Many of the six day bike riders eat from a quarter to a half pound of pure sugar, candy of milk chocolate daily. The majority of the European wrestlers whose endurance powers are truly remarkable eat sugar. RICHMOND PREPARES TO TRIM EM-ROES Indianapolis will play the local polo team at the Coliseum tomorrow night when the Richmond boys are looking forward to another victory. The Em-Roes have played only one game since their appearance here last week and that was with Muncie. They lost, making two straight defeats for them, so naturally they are anxious to redeem themselves, not caring at whose expense. Muncie defeated Richmond in an overtyne game on New Year's night before the fargest crowd of the season and the locals are sore all over and determined to get revenge on somebody. It looks as though the capital city boys will be the goat. LYONS IN LINE-UP Soxy Lyons, It was announced today will be in the line-up with Indianapolis when it meets the Kichmond polo team tomorrow night at the Coliseum. PLAYS AT PLAINFIELD.

Organizations are being perfected in a large number of counties to encourage attendance at this course. LaPorte county has already arranged to send eighty boys and girls with all expenses paid by the county. A large number of men and women will join the body which will make the number far beyond the 100 mark. Allen county, through the county agent and the County Agricultural association, has made airangements with the interurban road to furnish special cars and give special rates. Last year some forty-live farmers attended from Allen county. This year it is hoped to bring 150. These organizations are being duplicated in many other counties which assures the largest attendance for the short course ever known in the history of the institution. All persons interested in the agricultural and home making work are invited. Programs Mailed Out. Programs for the short course are now being mailed to the people of the state. The program shows the largest array of the best talent ever gathered together for a single week of instruction. Hon. Carl Vrooman, assistant secretary of the U. S. department of agriculture will give a lecture on "The Fanner's Business." Rev. O. F. Hall, student pastor of Purdue, will present his illustrated lecture on "The Country Church." Rev. Hall, under the direction of Purdue, has made a survey of thirty-four counties in the state and has brought together in this lecture an immense amount of valuable information which will do much to arouse interest in the betterment of this rural institution. The Indiana Corn Growers' association brings to the universitv on Wednesday, January 12, Dr. M. F. Miller of the University of Missouri, to give an address on "Soil Probiem.V Dr. Miller is one of the leading investigators in the United States and has also taken up study in Germany. He is in a position to give some valuable suggestions for the betterment of Indiana soils. The women of the state are to have for leader' Mrs. Christine Fredericks of New York, one of the most prominent and noted women in home economics work at the present time. Mrs. Fredericks will discuss "What Housekeeping Means to the Farm Home." ne wm also address the State Home Economics association on "Women, Home Making and Careers." Indications are that large numbers of women will attend these meetings. One hundred home economics classes in the state have been asked to send delegates.

OLD GASES IN COURT DISMISSED BY JUDGE

Cases which have been on the circuit court' docket, for six years were dismissed this morning while Judge Fox read off the civil docket. The case of the Grand Rapids & Indiana Railroad company against the railroad commission of Indiana, which was filed in 1910, was stricken from the docket. Since the case was filed the railroad commission has been reorganized. At the plaintiff's cost the damage suit brought by Ritta Able against the Ohio Electric company was dismissed. The suit was for personal damages The damage suit, demanding $300 from Henry C. Knode and Bert Souders, brought by Howard Modline, was dismissed. MAYOR'S Continued From Page One The silent one was Councilman Howells. Asked if it was not his intention to vote he hesitated for a moment then -voted to "kill" the Steinbrink motion. It is said that one or two councilmen voted to kill the Steinbrink motion because they did not believe that it was up to council "to interfere with the school board In the settlement of such a question. Mayor Robbins explained that this was the view he held. . Deficit Wiped Out. Treasurer McNally of the city Christmas tree committee submitted a report showing that the deficit had been wiped out. Bills totaling $303.85 were received while the contributions to the Tree fund amounted to only $270 94. However, the city plant paid $24.85 for wiring and fixtures used and the street department paid $2.C6 for lumber used, striking a- balance. A vigorous demand for fixing the roads leading to the summit of New man's Hill was received. At the pres ent time deiiverymen refuse to use these two roads. This question was rais.d by Councilmen Williams and Wilkins. It was referred to board. the COUNCIL (Continued From Page One.) purchase of the privately owned plant. . j Finally two readings were given an ordinance which provides a method for replacing monies borrowed from the plant sinking fund for the purchase project, so that there will be a sufficient amount in the sinking fund to retire the original bonds, when they mature, eleven years hence. Under the provisions of this ordinance $1,000 a month, beginning next March, shall be paid- into the plant sinking Tund until 1927 Advise Temporary Loan. A special committee, recently appointed to devise a method of financing the purchase of the privately own ed plant, mads a report last night, j This committee was composed of; Councilmen Eurdsall, Steinbrink, Car-; ter, Waidele and Howells. They ad- j vised securing a temporary loan not ; to exceed $85,000. It was estimated j that a loan of even less amount, together with the monies available in the city plant's general and sinking funds would be sufficient to pay fori the privately owned plant, the valua-! tion of which is approximately $200,-j 000. j Council was further advised in this; report to arrange a loan at o per cent, j whereby the city could apply not less j than $5,000 to the principal each: month. The committee declared that I such a loan would be more economt- j cal than a straight loan for one year, to be paid off in two installments at 4 per cent interest. These recommendations are complied with in the ordinance introduced authorizing the loan. Second to this DANGEROUS VARICOSE VEINS CAN BE REDUCED If you or any relative or friend is worried because of varicose veins, or bunches, the best advice that anyone in thi3 world can give is to get a prescription that many physicians - are now prescribing. Ask your druggist for an original two-ounce bottle of Emerald Oil (full strength) and apply night and morning to the swollen, enlarging veins. Soon you will notice that they are growing smaller and the treatment should be continued until the veins are of normal size. So penetrating and powerful is Emerald Oil that it dissolves goitre and wens and causes them to disappear. It can always be secured at Leo H. Fihc's. Adv.

ordinance provides that time warrant shall be Issued to the amount of S85 000, payable at the Second National bank. In denominations of $5,000 each, bearing interest at & per cent per annum, which warrants shall be due December 31. 1916. Then it is provided that the city shall have the right and option to pay and . cancel any such warrants at the end ot any month from the date of issue, and that the warrants shall be numbered from one to seventeen, and paid out of the funds of the municipal plant or from the tax revenues of the city for the current year. Warrants shall be sold for not less than par value, following the submission of sealed bids, to be handed in within two weeks after advertising for bids. Banks Submit Bids. It is understood . that Richmond's Ave banking institutions will submit a

collective bid for these warrants, and, if successful, will advance the city the loan on a prorated basis, each bank subscribing t6 the loan an amount equivalent to about 6 per cent of its combined capital and surplus. At the next council meeting -all three ordinances introduced last night will be put upon their passage. It is believed Councilman White will be the only one to oppose them. Last night he voted against the resolution accepting the commission's purchasing order. White contends that the entire question should be submitted to a vote of the citizens of Richmond.
