Neither Pigeon nor Sparrow knew
Canary, so they were introduced by
McGraw. "Mr. Canary, meet Mr
Sparrow, 'said McGraw. "Very
glad to meet you," returned the
bikestar. "Now meet Mr. Pigeon,"
said McGraw in all seriousness. By
this time, Canary thought McGraw
was ringing in bird names on him.
He had responded -to the Sparrow
introduction, but the Pigeon part
was too much, so he refused.
"Think you're kiddin' me, do you,"
he snorted and continued on his
way down Michigan boulevard with
the remark, That s too ma.iy

The- sporting editor of the Lin

anniversary story of the Kid La-vigne-George
Siddbns battle which
took place at Grand Rapids, Mich.,
30 years ago tomorrow, April 25.
They went SS rounds to a draw.
The previous month the 'Iron
Man" and the Saginaw Kid had
fought 77 rounds to a draw at Sag
inaw, making the first professional
appearance of Lavigne. These two
Jong, even bouts with a veteran of
proven ability showed that La
vigne was a "comer" and he was
matched with the best of the Amer
ican stars of the ring, among them
Joe Walcott, a, welter, whom he
whipped. Rather than risk a battle
with the little Sagnaw wonder,
Jack McAuliffe retired from the
game and turned the title over to
Lavigne. The Kid then went to En
gland and - defeated Dick Burge,
then lightweight champion of Great
Britain. Ten years after making his
start in the ring against Siddons,
Lavigne lost the title to Frank
Erne at Buffalo, N. Y.
In the second Armour game,
last Sunday, Manager Bill Jackson,
playing first base for the Rourkes,
and "Chuggs" Ryan ' the initial
had a wordy war every inning. Bill
was a little quicker of wit than Ry
an and carried Off the honors. He
wound up with the remark: "It's a
lucky thing they furnished you with
a unirorm. "Chugs wanted to
know the why of that remark, and
Bill said, "Why the fans wouldn't
know you were in the came if vnn
didn't have it on, for you can't play
ball", and then he walked off. The
game was "over before the scrapy

Local Ball-Player-Boxer to Go
Three Rounds With Heavy
weight Title Contender, As
Will Murray and Johnson.
The great Jack Dempsey Athletic
carnival will show at the Omaha
Auditorium tonight and the part of
it that will interest Omahans most
is the exhibtion bout between the
heavyweight challenger and Harry
Williams the popular big ball play
ing boxer. They will go three rounds
and fans will have an opportunity
of seeing whether Williams will
ever reach a commanding position-
n the boxing game, or not. An
other exhibition bout of especial in
terest will be the three-round affair
between Dempsey and John Lester
Johnson, the giant . six-foot, four
inch and 230 pound New York. negro,
who was awarded a newspaper ver
dict over Dempsey ou the chal
lenger's first New York City appearance.
Friends of Paul Murray, former
heavyweight negro boxer, have an
nounced that he will step two rounds
with Dempsev also. Murray, has
boxed Jess Willard and Jack John
son and performed creditably and
he favors Dempsey as a better man
thatf-either of the other two big
fellows, so he wants to box a coupler
of rounds or so with him.
The Papillion carpenter, Charley
Peters, will wrestle Cardini the car
nival's best heavyweight wrestler,
to a fall or 30 minutes. Tom Ray
and Jesse Queen will go the same
route and Matsuda, the Jap, will take
on Ludecke, the Panama and Cen
tral American champion, over the
same route.
Tickets have been on sale for the
past four days at the Auditorium
box office and have been going fast.
It is likely that a crowded house
will see the show. Dempsey sup
porters will be anxious to see their
favorite in action and the Willard
faction will want to see how good
he is.
WILSON PLANS
TO LEAVE PARIS
ABOUTMAY 20
Purposes to Await Signinpof
Treaty and Personally At
"tach His Signature as
Plenipotentiary. v
Paris, Aprili23. (Havas.)--The al
lied' tnd associated governments
have informed the German govern
ment through General Nudant at Spa
that they are ready to receive the
German delegates at :Versailles
April 28.
In connection with the question
of permitting the German delegates
to the peace congress to discuss the
treaty it has been figured out that
if the treaty were read to the Ger
mans it would require at least one
minute for each of the 1,000 articles
the document contained, taking up
two days of eight hours each. It
is computed also that if each article
were discussed and pn hour allowed
for every one the discussion would
occupy four months of continued
sessions of eight hours per day.
Ihese calculations are advanced
as a conclusive argument against
permitting the German delegates to
discuss the document.
President Wilson s plans for his
departure have not been changed
since he formed the determination
to leave about May 20.
It is the presidents purpose to
await the signing of the treaty and
personally attach his signature as
senior American plenipotentiary.
4 he tinal drattnicr ot the treaty is
proceeding with difficulty owing to
the vast magnitude of the task.
An official summary of the treatv
for publication after its delivery has
peen prepared, but the date on which
it will, be given out has not vet been
fixed. The revised covenant of the
lea cue of nation ha stlrrarlu keen
cabled to the State department.
