DONE IN TWO ROUNDS.
Kemmic Does Up ScuIly With
Great Ease.

Charley Kemmic, of Minneapolis.
whipped Jimmy Scully, of Wosnsocket.
R. l., so quickly last night in Mime
apolis that he can get backing for any
amount against any 14O-pound man that
breathes. Kemmic entered the
ring at 9:10 followed by his seconds.
Danny Needham, Johnny Van Hust
and Charley Johnson. Twenty min
utes later Scully appeared. Behind him
were Denny kelliher, Jim Kelliher and
Tim Mccarthy, The timekeepers were
Jimmy Manning for Kemmic. George
Harris for Scully, and F. A. McAvOy
for the club. Henry Seelye officiated as
referee. hemmic weighed 14l55 and
ScuIly half pound more.
As the men shook hands the differ
ence in height was apparent. Scully
was taller and had a greater reach.
Kemmic looked every inch a fighter.
Both appeared in excellent condition.
Kemmic, however, is more compact
built, and looked the stronger. As they
faced each other there was a death-like
stiffness. "Iime," said the referee. and
at it they went.
Round One-For half round there was
light sparrlng. Dut no punching. Then KEN
mic led with the left for Scullv's BODY but
hauder on kemmics ribs. Kemmic came
back with hard punch on ScUlly's neck. and
rushed, doing little damage
Round Two-Scully got in several light
ones on Kemmic. He tried 10 rush. and re-
celved tacer that stopped him. He landed
two light blows on Kemmic's ribs. Kemmic
rushed. and ScullY tried to upper
cut him twice, but failed to land
Scully went after Kemmic and received q
smash in the ribs for his trouble He return
ed light one on kemmic's head Kemmic
shot out his left catching Scully in the neck
Scully mOtioned as If to leave. A terrific
highlander on the point OF the Jaw sent
him to the floor. At the expiration of ten
seconds he was on his hands and knees. but
too weak 10 rise. lie did not recover until
fifteen seconds had elapsed. Kemmic was
carried from the ring Oh the shoulders Of the
crowd.
As to length. the fight was a disap-
pointment. but in no other way. KEN
mic showed such fighting qualities that
admiration for him Oyershadowed the
regret of those VINO expected a ten
round contest at the least. Scully was
something of a disappointment, but no
man could have stood up under the
swinging blow which settled him.
Scully is clever boxer. He seems to
have good head. too, but lacks in pun
lShment-infiicting qualities.

AYERS CONVICTED.
Found Guilty Of Publishing Lot
terry Advertisements.


terry Advertisements.
SIOUX FALLS, S. D.. April PAT. II.
Ayers, editor of the Vermillion Plain
Talk, has been convicted of publishing
lottery advertisements. Mr.. Ayers was
indicted by the grand jury April II for
publishing in the Vermillion Plain Talk
during the month of December and up
to Jan. 16 lottery advertisements, one
for Vermillion jeweler and one for
NJ. A. Dauphin, of New Orleans. Post
office Inspector Clement was directed
by the department to investigate
and see if there were any violations,
which he did. and found that Mir. Ayers
had been violating the law. During
The month of December there was pub
liShed iii the PLAIN Talk an advertise
ment Of jeweler in VermillIon, who
offered prizes TO his customers, tickets
being given to those who purchased a
certain amount of goods. Postmaster
Kidder. of Vermilliou, informed Mr..
Ayers that he could not accept the
Plain Talk with the lottery advertise
ment IN it, and that if they were pre-
sented they would be thrown out. Mr..
Ayers, however, persisted. and the
result was just as Mr.. Kidder pre-
dlcted. MIR. Ayers appealed from
kldders decision to the postmaster
general, who confirmed the act of his
subordinate. This did not abash Mr..
Ayers in his effort, and after repeated
trials TO run his paper through finally
gave it up. He added to his various
acts another which the inspector re-
ported. and that was publishing an adj
vertisemeHt which, in effect, stated that
M. Dauphin, of New Orleans, would re-
ceive money for investment. Dauphin
is the head and front OF the Louisiana
lottery. One of the tickets used by the
Jeweler was secured and used at the
trial. This is the first case of the kind
under the new law. and is one of great
interest to the country at large.

crime-the murder by E. B. Soper of his
wife and two children. Last Tues

child, boy, with its head crushed
into ShapelesS mass, and through the
open bedroom door was seen the dead
bodies Of Mrs. SOper and another child.
Mis-. SOper's head and face were
chopped nearly to pieces, and the head
of the child was split in twain. An AK
standing in the corner of the room,
the blade covered with blood and
matted hair told the method 1of
tue murder. a letter on table in the
sitting room was addressed ITO the au-
thOritieS or whoever may find these
bodies, present" In the letter occurred
this passage: 1T was best for me thus
to act rather than desert them. I
have slain them. What could

They would have lived miserably.''
