It was not the first prize fight between a black and white fighter. Gans took his lightweight Championshjp from a White fighter and beat white fighters to get a shot at the title. And while he was the first Black American Champion he was only the third Black Champion. He was preceeded by Canadian George Dixon who won the bantamweight title beating a white fighter in 1888 and the featherweight title in 1892. The original Joe "Barbados Demon" Walcott from Georgetown Guyana in the Caribbean won the welterweight title in 1901 from a white fighter and held it until 1906. They wouldn't have been 1st, 2nd and 3rd Black Champions if they had won championships from Black Fighters. Heavyweight Champion Jack Johnson was the fourth Black Champion and his stated style model was Joe Gans whom Johnson had invited to be an honorary cornerman for him in the Jeffries Fight. Unfortunately Gans was on his deathbed of tuberculosis by fight time and couldn't make the trip from Boston to Nevada.

These fighting men were a breed of there own kind A case of in the time became the order of the man and woman and everyone And that was the syn of the times Including depression and anxiety and other worldly pains These boxing men were literally hard as nails to the skin and some were big hearted souls Like my great great uncle Owen who beat batterling nelson sending him down in there 11 round 5/6 times and no neutral corner So he sailed three times to the United States from uk and Ireland and fought the best of the best from coast to coast And won the world title in san Francisco in the first decade of the 19 hundreds And his name aswell As my othere great uncle Michael chappie Moran who beat Tomas spider Kelly in new jersey in the last decade of the last decade of the 18 hundreds Both in the boxing hall of fame Aswell as nelson and ganns and so many more So it was a very different time and took no charlatans So to everyman who graced the ring I have respect for aswell as everyman who managed to dodge every or most street fights I also hold he the highest regards The ego is a must need But must be tamed or it will tame you more than most people couldn't even understand 🍀🥊🥊☘️🙏

I owned an adobe house in Apple Valley CA that was built in 1954. The original owner was able to acquire many huge-rustic beams and hardware from the railroad that were repurposed to support the roof and porch overhang around the perimeter of the building. The original developer of Apple Valley, Newt Bass, somehow got the timbers and used many for the construction of the Apple Valley Inn that was later bought by Roy Rogers. I assume the timbers at my house were left over from the Inn construction as the owner worked for Newt Bass.

Death Valley is like the Dead Sea. It used to alive before the USA was colonized. Don't believe the whites version of history. Death Valley used to be a giant lake before the whites had conquered the West Coast. That was back when Tulare Lake was full from North to South California and back when the San Andreas fault line did not exist yet. White Lies.

Well it's true that the pioneer story of Death Valley is part of America's larger story of westward expansion and manifest destiny. And you are correct that it was not a vast empty wilderness but was peopled by Native American tribes with their own beliefs and systems.

The photos of the town were great, They ought to be used in some widely disseminated documentary of this but much longer in focusing on the fight. . Gans had support among the miners from the first because he was recognized for a long established dominance in the division.Boxing was actually more widely followed then. I don;t know that Nelson was the betting favorite but if he were the odds wouldn't be wide or even uniformly similar at that time. Nelson had the particularly boorish race-bait style of hyping the gate that just might've contrasted with Gans necessarily nonplussed demeanor to effectively be off-putting to some of the miners that approached wagering objectively for the profit's sake. There was a welcoming group of miners for Gans of a couple dozen and '\ll have to assume Nelson had the same. There also might've been a dislike of Tex Richards factor as the owner of everything including Nelson's corner which he had advantaged considerably in handicapping Gans in the contract. Hell Gans had to have cojones just to beat up all the many white guys he had in the heyday of lynchings.. Once he had cleaned the lightweight division of Black fighters in winning the the "Colored" championship He pretty much had to clean it of white fighters to win the world Championship. in 1902 and in defending it. I'll just say the dispute over it made for gate hype but wasn't valid. Gans owned it until 1908. These guys would've had to be fighting in a delirium after 25 rounds in the hot Nevada Sun, I think it set Gans up for the TB along with the three weigh ins that he alone were subjected to. Some say he had it before this. Either way this was not healthy exercise, .

These teams & wagons were used to haul Borax. The stuff you buy in the grocery store. The box says TWENTY MULE TEAM BORAX. Well it's not a lie. It really did take twenty mules to that borax wagon. Borax is very heavy. I've s laundry going for those of you that live in areas that have hard water. When you do your laundry& add your laundry soap, add 1/3 cup of Borax to your washing. It's a natural water softener & your clothes will come out a lot cleaner. I live in an area with hard water & my Mom (God give her rest) told me to do this when I had terrible getting my clothes clean. My clothes used to look a little grey instead of clean. Since I started using Borax my clothes lost that grey color.

Als alter gelernter Fuhrmann blicke ich auf ein langes glückliches Berufsleben zurück. Zwei-, Vier- Sechsspännig und auch selten acht Pferde sind schon ein Glücksgefühl. Von ,,jumping the train" habe ich bisher noch niemals gehört, aber ich denke, nur ein gutes Mule ist dazu intellektuell überhaupt in der Lage. Ein Pferd könnte das wohl niemals. Als Teilnehmer der EQUITANA in Essen/Deutschland lernte ich einige Mulis und ihre Reiter/Fahrer/Führer kennen und habe seither die höchste Meinung von Mulis und ihren Fähigkeiten. ,,Ein Muli kann Alles, was ein Pferd kann. Aber schneller und besser!" Danke für diese wertvolle Belehrung!
