Ilo was in l.os Anpelcs, with absolutely uo prospect and penniless, lie bcciimu so enthused and evened that all ho would say was lhai it sounded toy good to bo true, and was Impossible, ISext I look lilin to New Toil! and he pleaded with me lo lake Ins Irieud Archer atonic said he did not wain to impose on roe, but he would appi-eriule. it.

Willard was matched with Johnson, as 1 had planned and the world knows what a complicated ertort coiioitions forced on me. Johnson, a liiKllive from jus-lice, it was neces-ary lo circle the frlobc. to hud him, and what were the en-cout afc'emctils In making the match? tv-ry sport writer, with the exception or cue or two personal rrieuds, who had supreme coulidencc in me, called it a Joke mutch.

'And I mm that moment oil. despite all the severe criticism, Willard made money. He bo! ouiy made, likuicy, Lut despite a contract that Messrs. Weber, I'razer, Jones and myscir entitled us to our per-ci'iiuto', we took iiothuisr and permitted Villaid to take every cent, we took him to tailors and dressed him decently, and when we irnt theaters to pay him j'er week let him keep it, xvnereas berore he was matched with Johnson he could not et fu cents a week.

AllW.IWISI Tolice court visitors who are not acquainted with the "lingo" of the underworld rind it dimcutt to understand many prisoners, simply because they have a language all their own. Where It came from no one knows, but now and then a word is added and today a successful detective or patrolman must be able to understand talk xviuch would sound as strange as a language from foreign shores to the average citizen. Although they mix the language of their clan with Knglish xvhile before the bar in police court, tt Is when they get together that they speak their own lingo. They have adopted much or the common slang and added mysterious words so sue cessrully that the "outsider" or "guy rat" tenderfoot cannot "horn In" on the "gab." However, some of the thler and holm slang ts familiar to the average man who has read ihe books of Jack London and Joslah Hint. it Is the older hoboes and yeggmen who use Ihe lingo, and "musher" are becoming lew and far between in hi J'aso.

The southwest, and especially this particular section, Is not tho most popular place in the country among "dips" and "second story men" who make a business of "pulling Jobs" regularly. This is due to the rai that It is hard to get away anil one has to "mush" quite a distance before reaching another "burg" where one ran "lav low" until the "dicks" forget him. Now and then an old-llnier "drifts" in and It Is with Joy that the officers xvho have worked In eastern cities, listen to his talk. Arraigned before Police Judge Hen Jenkins, the oldlimer tells Ills story like this: "Vou see, youronner, It all conies off something like dis: A shack ditches me in the yards an' I lnoichcs wnl my inush and keesler down to the mini stem of i this burg we I runs Into a tin ran wot I stops me an' calls a (lick. Just because i they rinds a gal in my keester they calls the paddy wagon and slams me in the stir.

I alter the screw ti-isks inc. takes a bunch o' Junk otren me. Honest, youronner. I didn't gloin that Junk, honest, and I didn't have that gat in my brume a tall." Hut the average type or holdup man the police deal xvith here are local -products and have yet to learn all the lingo or the proresslon. following in a brier glossary of "crooks' slang: Arrest Pull, MANY CATTLE SENT TO BOSTON MARKET Cows Which Should Remain on Ranges Glut Eastern Pens, Reports Disclose.
