SYNOPSIS
Sam Stitbener, manager of boxers, hears
about a wonderful unknown boxer called
Young Pat Glendon. He finds the boy in
the wilderness.
Glendon, innocent of the world's ways,
goes to San Francisco and is matched
with “Roughhouse Kelly.” \
[Continued from last week.]
Once in a clinch the fight manager |
heeled his glove on young Pat's mouth,
and there was just a hint of vicious-
ness in the manner of doing it. A mo-
ment later, in the next clinch, Sam re-
ceived the heel of the other's glove on
his own mouth.
There was nothing snappy about it,
but the pressure, stolidly lazy as it
was, put his head back till the joints
eracked, ‘and for the moment he
thought his neck was broken. He
slacked his body and dropped his arms

the instant release and staggered clear.
“He’ll—he’ll do!” he gasped. looking
the admiration he lacked the breath tc
utter.

in’ to happen when some of
the gay an’ ugly ones tries to rough it
on him?” he asked.
“He'll kill them sure,” was Stuben:

“No, he’s too cool for that. But he'll
Just hurt them some for their dirti-
ness.”
“Let's draw up the contract,” said
the manager.
“Wait till you know the whole
worth of him,” old Pat answered.
“’Tis strong terms I'll be makin’ you

Stubener was gone two days on that
hunt, and he learned ail and more than
old Pat had promised and came back a
very weary and very humble man.
The young fellow’s innocence of the
world had been startling to the case

tain experience, nevertheless he had
proved possession of a natural kKeen-
ness and shrewdness far beyond the
average.
In a way he was a mystery to Sam,
who could not understand his terrible
equanimity of temper. Nothing ruf-
fled him or worried him, and his pa-
tience was of an enduring primitive
ness. :
He never swore, not even the futile
and emasculated cuss words of sissy
boys.
“I'd swear all right if I wanted to,”
he had explained when challenged by
his companion. “But I guess [I've
never come to needing it. When I
do I'll swear, I suppose.”
Old Pat, resolutely adhering to his
decision, said goodby at the cabin.
“It won’t be long, Pat, boy, when
I'll be readin’ about you in the papers.
I'd like to go along, but I'm afeard
‘it’s me for the mountains till the end.”
And then, drawing the manager
aside, the old man turned loose on
him almost savagely. :

he’s honest.

“And whatever you’ll be doin’ watch
out for the women.” was old Pat's
parting admonishment, young Pat
astride his horse and reining in duti-
fully to hear “Women is death an’
damration. remember that. But when
you do find the ome. the only one,
hang on to her. She’ll be worth more
than glory an’ money. But first be

“Grab her with the two hands of

Once in San Francisco, Sam Stube-
ner’s troubles began. Not that young
Pat had a nasty temper or was grouchy
as his father had feared. On the con-
trary, he was phenomenally sweet and
mild.
But he wae homesick for his belov-
ed mountains: also he was secretly
appalled by the city, though he trod
its roaring streets imperturbable as a |
red Indian.
*“l came down here to fight.” he an-
nounced at the end of the first week.
“Where's Jim Hanford?"
Stubener whistled
“A big champion like him wouldn't
look at you.” was his answer *‘Go
and get a reputation.’ is what he'd
say.”
“] can lick him”
“But the public doesn’t know that.
If you licked him you'd be champion
of the world. and no champion ever
became so with his first fight”
“fean’
“But the public doesn’t know it. Pat.
It wouldn’t come to see vou fight. And
it's the crowd that brings the money
and the big purses hat's why Jim
Hanford wouldn't consider you for a
second. There'd be nothing in it for
him.
“Besides, he’s getting $3,000 a week
right now in vaudeville, with a con-
! tract for twenty-five weeks. Do you
' think he'd chuck that for a go with a
. man no one ever heard of? You've
' got to do something first—make a rec-
ord. You've got to begin on the little
local dubs that nobody ever heard of
—guys like Chub Collins, Roughhouse
- Kelly and the Flying Dutchman.
“When you've put them away, you're
only started on the first round of the
ladder. But after that you’ll go up
- like a balloon.”
“I'll meet those three named in the
| same ring one after the other.” was
| Pat’s decision. ‘Make the arrange-
| ments accordingly.”
| Stubener laughed.
| “What's wrong? Don't you think I
| can put them away?”
i “I know you can,” Stubener assured
{ him, “But it can’t be arranged that
way. You've got to take them one at
a time. Besides, remember, I know
the game and I''m managing you. This
proposition has to be worked up, and
I’m the boy that knows how. If we're

lucky you may get to the top in a
couple of years and be the champion
with a mint of money.”
Pat sighed at the prospect, then
brightened up.
“And after that I can retire and go
back home to the old man,” he said.
Stubener was about to reply, but
checked himself, Strange as was this
championship material, he felt con-
fident that when the top was reached
| it would prove very similar to that of
all the others who had gone before.
Besides, two years was a long way
off, and there was much to be done i
the meantime. .
‘When Pat fell to .moping around his
quarters, reading endless poetry books
and novels drawn from the public li-
brary, Stubener sent him off to live

An Opportunity to Secure Rich Productive Land Without Capital.
You will not be required to leave your present surround-
ings now. All we ask of those to whom we grant tracts is
that they plant, or arrange to have planted, a crop of one
of the above-mentioned products ‘within three years, after
which we will have it operated (harvested and replanted)
for grantees, in consideration of 25 per cent. of the net
profits derived from the sale of the crops, thereby allowing
the grantee to pursue his or her present occupation until
such time as they determine just what the yield of their
acres amounts to. Consider what this may mean as a
source of income, when statistics show that the yield of
one acre of celery amounted to $1,268.45, and that one
acre of well-cared for, paper shell pecans, in full bearing,
should net its owner as high as $500.00 per year. We are
of the opinion that after it is proven by actual results
obtained in operating the land that they will need no fur-
ther urging, and waste no time in locating in this land of
plenty. We also require grantees to occupy the land with-
in ten years, or sell it to some one who will occupy it;
otherwise it reverts back to the grantor.
The land included in this opening is located directly on
and adjoining the Atlanta, Burlington and Atlantic Rail-
road, about twenty-five miles west of Brunswick, a thriv-
ing city of fifteen thousand, having direct steamship serv-
ice to New York and Boston, and excellent railroad trans-
portation facilities to all points. The average tempera-
ture for six months of the year, from April to October, is
77 degrees; the climate is most healthful, delightful, and in-
vigorating, and there is an ample rainfall of 51 inches per year,
OUR AIM IS FOR MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL RESULTS
As we are extremely desirous of having settlers locate on
this property, and assist in its development, and thereby
greatly increase the value of surrounding and intervening
property, which we will hold, and to increase the traffic
along the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic Railroad, and
thus facilitate the service, we feel warranted in granting
these tracts to those who register with us. We also have
in mind business and residence plots which we will offer
for sale after the opening, but which will not be included
in it. We have “money-making afterward” considerations
in this liberal-minded opening, similar to those of the
SOUTHERN GEORGIA RAILROAD-LAND DEVELOPMENT BUREAU,
COLORADO BUILDING, WASHINGTON, D. C.
Northern Pacific and other railroads when they granted
their lands, and we expect to benefit thereby, as well as the
ones who will receive the tracts.
We have also planned to develop what is designed to be
the best equipped, most up-to-date, scientific, commercial
farm and orchard in existance. It will consist of six thous-
and acres, and will be included in this opening. All who
register and receive tracts will get the benefit of the experi-
ments and scientific methods in vogue thereon. While we
are arranging to prevent over-registration, we will avoid
many disappointments, such as occurred in other land open-
ings conducted by the United States Government and rail-
roads, by granting those who register in excess of the num-
ber of tracts to be granted, an interest in this commercial
farm and orchard enterprise, in the hope that they may lat-
er locate in one of our town sites.
Examination of the land will cheerfully be permitted
and the opening will be held at Browntown, Wayne county:
Georgia, one of the stations of the A. B. & A. Railroad, which
is located on this property, and will occur as soon after the
closing of registrations as arrangements can be made.
The presence of those registered will not be necessary at
Browntown on the opening day, unless they wish to attend,
for there will be no favoritism shown anyone. It will be
conducted by a committee selected for the purpose, and
those registered will be notified of what they have been
granted, as soon as possible.
With the ever-increasing population of this country there is
no corresponding increase in the era of land, and naturally as
the population increases and seeks the land in pursuit of health,
happiness and independence, it will continue to be harder to
secure.
The prosperous and contented class in Europe to-day are
the descendants of those who secured land there when it was
plentiful, while the descendants of those who obtained no land
are now the peasants and slaves. You must realize that this
may be your last chance to secure land in this country without
a large outlay of capital, so it should not be necessary to
urge you to act at once by forwarding us the application for
registration attached to this announcement.
