HOW EARL CADDOGK
BEGAMEWRESTLER
Anita, la., Fanner Boy Took Lessons
in Order to Get Revenge on
a Fellow Hawkeye.
CLEANED UP ALL AMATEURS
By EDWARD W. SMITH.
For year one of the moat popular
fable that could be written brought out
the country boy in the role of a hero,
alwaya defeating; the city chap In ath
letic contests and generally humiliating
the smart fellow who thought himself;
superior to the yokel because of hla lly
aurroundlng-a.
In the wrestling game at least, these
fables are no longer fables at all, but
stories of hard farts. The world's great
est wrestlers are farmer boys, at leant
three ef them today standing out a
wonderful men In the grappling game.
They are Frank Ootch of Humboldt, la.;
Joe (Keener of Dodge, Neb., and Karl
Caddock of Anita. Ia.
This yarn has to deal chiefly with Karl
Caddock, who got his start towards the
top of the heap In a strange manner,
Ben Reuben, himself one of the great
est amateurs the world ever produced,
vouches that this fable Isn't anything of
the kind It Is a real story of facts. As
such we will let you have it Just as Ben
told It to me.
"I must claim the credit for the dis
covery of Earl Caddock," Ben began. "I
lie a great wrestlerT Well, here's what
I think of him. Inside of a year he will
ke the only man on this wide globe who
lias a chance of defeating; the mighty
Blether. I that strong enough?
"One day while a wrestling tournament
was In progress at the Hebrew Instltuto
I got a rail from a tall, angular looking
young fallow with a decidedly prominent
Jaw. He looked serious. He told me he
was Just In from Iowa, that he was a
farmer named Caddock and that he
wanted to learn a little something about
wrestling. He had tackled a fellow
named McPeath out In hla country and
been beaten. He wanted revenge. H
wanted to make sure that when h
tackled McPeath again that he could
win. Would I give him a couple of les
sons and work with him so he could get
the hang of a few holds?
llamiM Hentten Kaslly.
'I didn't ray much attention to iilm
after he got stripped other than to notfi-e
he looked strong, but ungainly. We took
holds and started tumbling around. In
ahout a minute I was flat on my back.
'Sciatrh,' 1 said to myself as I got to my
f el. Again we went at It and in leas
than no time I was again flat.
''What la this, anyway?' 1 worried
s I again got uq. Heating a minute, 1
started to size the farmer up. Then I
nrtlced that he whs bu'lt like a girtllu.
Uh arira nearly as big as his leS thAt
riiK'ed almost down to his knee,
"(tight there I nisda up my mind that
he was a ringer. 80 I decided to try
suine of my own copyrighted holds on
him. 1 put one on him that I knew nt
other wrestler uaed up to thut time. He
broke It and about a minute after he tried
the very same hold on me and dumped
nie again. That settltd It; I got up mn.
asked him If he ever had used that hold
belor. 'No,' he said, "but you Just
used It'on me and I thought I'd try It
right back on you.'
' That convinced me that he 's the great
est natural wrestler I evrr saw, and 1
really believe with another year' ex
perience, he will defeat the mighty
ftecher. ,
l.lrka Krarat kartrr,
"Oh. yrs. my story isn't finished yet.
I discovered that I hsd a good, thing, so
I started to sic' hint on to some of the
other wrestlers. He looked like such a
goo. thing, such a soft murk, thst they
all fell lor htm In a hurry. Kirn one
and then the other until finally he tackled
Krnest Kitye. who certainly ia one of
the greatest.
"Well, he did to Krnle Juet whst he had
done to all the rest. of us. But, mind
you, all the time he was flopping us
around like we were kids, he kept worry
ing about whether he could trim M
I'eath or not. He could beat some of
the greatest wrestlers In the business
here In Chicago, but was worrying about
whether he could beat some dub out in
Jowa.
"Certainly he threw him when he got
back there. Why wouldn't he? Didn't he
flop ft teener for one fall, the only fall Joe
ever had registered against him?'
Just an Earful
By Tad
Jim Corliett. working for a movie conrn last week, had to play In a scene
set for Broadway and Koriy-flfth street. Jim was to drive his car and hit a nmn.
The camera was set In an office bulldin g two flights up, so that no one, on the
street except .Tim and his man knew of 1 1. The movie man wanted It that way
so that a real crowd would rush out and
make It natural. .
At a given sign t'orhett atartel with
Ms car and the other fellow started to
cross the street. Bang' Cornell's car
hit him, the fellow fell and let out a
yelp. A mob rushed over to the auto,
and with It came a big cop. Ho ruMied
through the mob, grabbed the fallen man
and, seeing that he wan not dead, turned
his attention to the car.
The fallen guy was moaning and mak
ing all sorts of noises to hold the crowd.
Jt was excited, too, and stayed right oti
the spot, making It great for the movie
men, who were churning to beat the
band.
The cop, in order to make himself im
portant, then pushed Ills way out of thu
crowd, reached for a little red book in
his pocket and walked over toward the
car. 9e was Just ready to slip our hero
a summons for reckless driving when ho he looked up and recognised Corliett.
He suddenly turned his head toward the mob, and seeing that no one wa
wise, winked at CorTett and gave him the nod to beat It up the street.

OFFERS FIFTEEN THOUSAND
FOR WELSH-WHITE BOUT
CHICAGO. Jab. JO.-An offer if 116.00
for a championship go between Freddie
Welsh, lightweight title holder, ant
;hsrley White of Chicago, was mads
White's manager here today by Joe
Uoiden, who represents sa Antonio pro
motet a.
According to Golden, the Texas pro
moters want the fighters to accept a fiat
offer and divide the money between them
as they see fit. If both boxers agree to
the terms, the bout will be stagged dJr
lr ths latter days of February. Goldca
Denmark won the big International
Tug-of-War staged at the Auditorium for
the last seven dsys.
Captain Emll Tolbad'a crew carried off
the tournament by a victory over Tetn
Ixwh's German team last nlsht in one
of the hardest pulls of the tourney.
For the full limit of twenty minutes
the Danes and German tugged and tua
sled. When the clock ticked off the final
second it was decided by the referee and !
Judges that the Danes had won by two ;
and one-half Inches.
Hundreds of dollars changed hands on
the result of the pull last night. It be- I
came apparent "ttiree or four days agv
that Denmark and Germany had the two
best teams and would Inevitably meet In
the finals. As a result followers of both
teams placed large sums of real coin of
the realm on the result.
Much of the money was placed without
odds. Tele Loch and M. Chrlstensen had
S-'-H on the result this way. Others bet the
Danes would pull the Germans In ten
m'nutrs. Others bet that the Danes would
pull the Germans to the flag, a distance
of five feet. Wagers at these latter two
odds were won by the Germans.
Dawes Hla; I'srsrltes.
T ne Danes went Into the match last
night big favorites. Until last night no
team had stayed even seven minutes
with Tolbad's men. It was figured that the
Germane would go almost as quickly.
But Loch's men upset the dope. At tho
flash of the gun 011 the start the Danes
put their weight ou the rope and ob
tained an advantage of about four Inchea.
Time and again they attempted to add
to this aavantage, but failed. The Ger
mans did not attempt to pull at the start.
Loch wso content to rest easily and
inemly hold his own with the Danes.
At eighteen minutes Loch gavu the sig
nal for his men to put forth a mighty
I effort. And they responded nobly. They
I gathered up an Inch of the lost rope. A
; minute later the Germans went to work
again and gathered In half an Inch, leav
ing the Danes an advantage of two and
a half Inches as the pull ended.
l,rriuuaa Kiahl Hard.
The Germans put up a great battle
against a superior team. The Danes are i
veteran tug-of-war men. They have been
pulling together for years and have been
practicing dally. Loch's team was only j
organized for this tug-of-war and did
not nave the teamwork the Danes did.
The boys from the Khlne fought hard and
died gamely.
Jack i'rince aanuuaccd last night that
he had already entered lato negotiation
with the Bcotch team of Chicago to coins

It's a lot of money isn't it? But it's just what
the output of Omaha Manufacturers amounted
to during 1915.
It is $17,530,522 MORE than the output dur
ing 1914.
It is $17,530,522 MORE money that stayed at
home and worked and helped each one of us
instead of being sent away to buy eastern goods
and build up eastern cities.
It is $17,530,522 MORE money that has been
distributed among us as pay for raw products,
as wages, as new paving, new schools, new
churches, new improvements and benefits of
every description.
It is $17,530,522 MORE money that the people
of Omaha SAVED during 1915 than they did
during the preceding year. '
And remember, this is just the increase over
1914 not the total that big, ponderous $213,

they have purchased Omaha-Made Goods. They
have brought all the benefits incident to keep

the OMAHA BRANDS of the products they

And then, they have received better goods for
