DE 0R0 RETAINS HIS TITLE At Fifty Years of Age Noted Cuban Expert Is Still Stacking His Skill Against All Comers. That the cue is mightier than either the pen or the sword Is the opinion of Alfredo De Oro, the world's famous 'pool and billiard expert, who recently successfully defended his title of champion at three-cushion billiards by defeating Joseph Carney of Denver. De Oro is the champion of all cham pions, as he has been the-king ot his Alfredo De Oro. favorite sport longer than anybody In any other line. Over a generation ago De Oro was known the length and breadth of the country as the foremost pool player, and he has been going along, trim mlng all comers up to the present time, at the age of fifty years De Oro has won over $100,000 in purses and side bets at pool (now styled pocket billiards) and threocushion billiards. He is the possessor of all the emblems ever offered in competition at pool except tho one Benny Allen recently captured from him, but before long be hopes to reannex that De Oro never plays unless ho has a bet on himself. He has such great confidence In his ability to outplay all comers that ho is willing to back him self for any reasonable amount, but never for the big sums he wagered on himself years ago when bis eyesight was keener and his arm steadier. De Oro held a pool title for eighteen years at a stretch, the longest period that anybody ever held a champion ship In any division of sport. De Oro was once worth a tremen dous fortune, and he really was obliged to follow the game of pool, which he at first took up as a pastime, because be needed the money. At 'the time of tbe Spanish-American 'war, in 1898, he was wealthy, but the iravageB of conflict and Btock market upset caused him to lose every' cent he had in the world. De Oro was born at Manzantllo, Cuba, two score and ten years ago. Robinson Has Training Plans.

New York fans wero eager to see the new mat sensation from Iowa, and Gotch agreed to tho fourth meeting with Jenkins to be staged in tho metropolis. Unfortunately bo con tracted a severe cold making night Jumps en route eastward. Me de cided, however, to keep tho engage ment Tho match was at Greco Roman style and Gotch, unfitted for a rough and tumble encounter with u mat tiger like Jenkins, went down to an honorable defeat after taking one fall. George Hackenschmldt, the Russian Lion, then In the heyday of his fame as a wrestler, was on his way to America to meet the Yankee champ ion. Hackenschmldt met and defeated Jenkins at catchascatchcan, but turned a deaf ear to challenges hurled at him by Gotch. This wub a bitter disappolntmet to the Iowa boy, who had dreamed of Winning the world's championship. Hackenschmldt re turned .o Europe, claiming that honor. Gotch was eager to regain his lost' prestige and remained in tho east un til Jenkins agreed to a' return match. The encounter took place at Madi son Square garden May 19, and proved to be one ot the most savage in wrest ling history. Gotch was still suffering slightly from his cold, and Jenkins was In primo condition. Tho outcome of this match was a bitter dose for Gotch, and tho citizens of Humboldt never havo forgiven tho metropolis for its treatment of their hero on this occasion. Speak to any old resident of Humboldt about it and he will tell you that Gotch was robbed and beaten by tho most outlandish ex hibition of thievery ever perpetrated in American sports. They contend that the refcreo winked at Jenkins' rough tactics and permitted him to grasp the ropes every tlmo Gotch bad him near a fall Gotch, however, took bis de BOYD WINS A BIG RACE The illustration given herewith shows R.

The referco was Tltn Hurst, famous for his eccentricities as a baseball umpire. It was a grudgo match and the winner took all the receipts. At the call of time Jenkins rushed in but was stopped' by Gotch, who put the veteran down on the mat. Gotch held Jenkins down for nearly half an hour. Jenkins finally broko away and landed a heavy blow or Gotch's mouth. Gotch protested but Hurst told him to go on and wrestle. Jenkins grabbed Gotch around the neck for a strangle hold and after several minutes of pro testing by Gotch In which he received a good choking, tho grip was loosened. When they clinched Jenkins took an other strangle hold untl held it until Gotch went down, despite the warning of the referee. Gotch wriggled out and caught Jen kins by the feet, turning him into a doublo thigh and crotch hold. Jenkins' head was forced down until his shoul ders touched the mat, but ho grabbed the ropes. Gotch protested, but tho referee ordered the men to the center of the mat, where thoy began to wrestle anew. Jenkins kicked and strangled Gotcb. He fouled him deliberately. Gotch re taliated with rough work. Six times Jenkins caught the ropes to avoid a fall. Each tlmo Hurst ordered the men to the center to begin anew. Jenkins caught Gotch with a head hold which Tim Hurst called a "mug hold" and Gotch went down to defeat In 1:30:00. Both wrestlers wero thrown from the ring in tho second bout, Gotch re ceiving a bad fall. Gotch won tho sec ond fall but he was clearly weakened, whllo Jenkins seemed stronger. Jenkins rushed Gotch hard in the third fall and crushed htm to tho mat, Gotch struggled to his feet, tottered, locked about in a dazed manner, lurched forward and fell full length on his face. It was nearly twenty min utes before he could be 'carried to his dressing room. (Copyright. 1813, by Joseph B. Bowles.)

Connie Mack, manager of tho Ath letics, brands as absolutely falsa tho line-up of an all-star baseball team1 alleged to have been picked by him as the greatest baseball aggregation in the world. "I did not pick an all-star team, neither did I give my consent for any ore to do It for me," said Mack. "Fur tbcrmore, I would not pick such a triam for publication, as I do not be- lleve In stirring up trouble among, players, and I think picking an all-Btar team is foolish business. ' "It I picked such a team Ty Cobb most certainly would have been my first choice for outfield. I never allow my personal feelings to interfere with business, nor do I allow them to pre vent me from giving a player his just due. "I do not consider the New Yorkers treated me fairly when they credited me with picking an all-star team." Lord Ashby St. Ledgers.

Tho great rush fur homesteads whenever a reserwitlon Is opened by the L S government rcAculs tho fact that there Is a great desire on the part of the American people to get land. The fact that trim of thousands are on hand at every opening, nnd on ly n few hundred homesteads are available shows that the avail able agricultural lands which are In the gift of the government are rnp- Idly diminishing. In addition to this agricultural lands that nru of proved vuluo have advanced In price to such an extent that It becomes a serious question to the man with moderate means who Intends to go Into farming, ' where ho shall go. Fortunately there i Is yet to he had In Western Canada, either In Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta, thousands of freo homesteads j I of 1C0 neres each, which may be had, by the simple process of llllng, paying n ten dollar entrance fee, nnd living on j It- for six months each year for three i . years. 1 here Is no necessity to tnako a long, tedious nnd expensive Journey, only to find you havo one chance In fifty of getting what you want. Al though this homestvadlng tins been . going on in Canada for a number ot years, and hundreds ot thousands of them havo been taken by hundreds ot thousands of Americans, thero re-. mains sulllclent to last for some tlmo, and of ns good land iib any that litis yet been taken up. In fact, In the , opinion of very many, those that are left nre of the heat. They comprlsu lands that- give the opportunity to In dulge in the growing of grain, wheth er It be wheat, oats, bailey or llux, hut In addition these lands are admir ably adapted for mixed farming, a ' class of farming that is certain to glvo better returns than that of all grain growing. Cattle thrive and fatten on tho nutritious grasses; dairying can be carried on successfully; timber for building is within reach, and water is easy to get. These lands nre located In the park districts of any of tho three provinces; groves of trees In tersperse the landscape and give it a beauty that can only bo attained In tho more open pialrle sections by the planting of trees. Tree culture by tho . wny Is being carried on to a great ex-1 tent. Besides theso freo grant lands there nre lands which may be had by purchasing from railways and private companies and Individuals. Theso lands have not Increased In prlco ns their productive qualities nnd their lo cation might havo warranted, and may still be had nt reasonably low prices and on ensy terms. The crop In West ern Canada tu 1913 was one of tho best of the number or good crops that ! that country has raised. Wheat has been reported with ylolds of from SO to 45 bushels per aero, nnd other grain with llko heavy yields. Advertise ment. Household and Mental Order. Froebel, "father of child-study," said that "Inwnrd clearness proceeds from outward order," and there Is truth enough In the observation to glvo food for thought to tho cnrelfss, untidy mother and father. Froobol's saying was connected, no doubt, with his In sistence that tho child's play and work materinlB In the kindergarten should bo taken out In perfect order nnd bo returned at the close of the exercises, und Dr. Montcssorl, the Italian educa tionist, whose method Is working a chango In tho teaching of children, re quires the samo thing In her "Houses of Childhood." Thero must Indeed bo a potent Influence In nn orderly, punc tual, wlsoly-admlnlstered household, nnd there Is no question that children brought up In Buch nn atmosphcro do show clearness In their mental pro cesses. Fortunately thU Is an Influ ence which is independent of riches or poverty and so can bo exerted by any mothor. Lesson In Grammar.
