Out by His Years

Steve" O'Donnel defeated Jake Kilratn
IN a fight before the Eureka Athletic Club
at Germania Hall. Baltimore, last night in
less than five rounds. 1t was a good fight
kLrain had all the better of points. but his
age told on him.
Both We're in fine condition. They sat in
the ring glaring at each other for several
minutes before Referee Mantz called them
to the center for Instructions. O'Donnell
was surprised to see Kilrain trained down
to form and appeared to see that he had
more work than he had expected, despite
the warnings he had been given.
kilrain looked at his opponent and Won
dered how fast he would prove to be
y DonneIl was the taller and had the long
eT reach and the advantage of having
fought battles while Kilrain was the host
in hotel. ODonnell was a 2-to-l choice
in the betting. He the faster man
and won. Kilrain outboxed him. but his
blows were not effective.
Behind kilrain stood Charles Zimmerman
and DR.. Charles Blake of the Baltimore
Athletic Club and AL. HEREFORD, boss of the
Eureka Athletic Club.
1t was HEREFORD who threw up the sponge
in the middle of the fifth round, as he was
convinced that Kilrain could not win 1t
a wise move. Kilrain is one o. the
best instructors of boxing in America, and
now that he has found he cannot compete
with the younger boxers he will do we'll to
turn his attention to teaching the manly

NEGRO BURNED AT STAKE.
Confessed to Similar Crime Against
whole Family.

dispatch from Canton, Miss. says:
The little town Of st. Anne, twenty miles
east of Canton, In Leake county, was
the scene of a horrible tragedy Thursday
night. a sequel to the burning of the Gam
brel family the night before. Joe Leflore, a
negro. who was captured by a posse, con-
fessed that he. in company with two other
negroes. had tied Mrs. Gambre and her
four children to the floor of the house. sat
urated the surroundings with kerosene, and
burned the unfortunate people alive. The
negro. after the confession of the crime,
was promptly rOped to a stake and burned
to a crisp, while the citizens looked on in
grim silence.
Another negro Bob Smith, was saved in
the nick of time as there was doubt as
to his guilt.
The Gambrel tragedy occurred early
Thursday morning, and 1t was first thought
that the fire was the result of an accident.
A casual investigation revealed circum-
stances so suspicious that more searching
investigation was made, and 1t was soon
established beyond doubt that the family
had been murdered and the house fired.
Posses were Immediately formed to scour
the country and they followed every pos
sibe clue Before the posses left st. Anne
ii was discovered that Joe Lefiore. a negro
who lived in the. neighborhood. and who
had heretofore borne a good reputation,
had disappeared. Early In the evening Lee
nore was captured several miles from the
scene of the murder. At first the murderer
denied any knowledge of the crime, but he
finally broke down completely, and con-
fessed that he and Bob and Andrew Smith
two other negroes. were guilty. He hoped
for no mercy and told with a brutal frank
ness all the details of the crime.
In the yard where the Gambrel residence
had stood L4eflore tied to a stake and
burned alive. No one sent a merciful bull
let into his body to kill him. Andrew Smith
escaped from The mob while Leflore was
being burned, and has not been captured.
Bob Smith was tied to another stake and
fire started. though he was finally re-
leased. there was possibility of his
proving his innocence
Andrew Smith will be recaptured, and If
1t Is proven that he and his brother Bob
are guilty 1t is thought that no power can
save them from similar fate meted out
on Leflore.

MATCH FOR MCCOY

The Eastern High School foot ball eleven
went over to Kendall Green yesterday and
confronted the Gallaudet reserves with
the result that they were defeated by the
score of % to 0. The school boys are much
lighter than the Gallaudets, and the match
was arranged to benefit the local
eleven in the coming series for the cham
pionship of the Washington High Schools.
The Easterns played puckily throughout,
but the handicap of superior weight told
tremendously in the line bucking, and en-
abied the Gallaudets to make tremendous
gains. Kennedy of the Easterns played
brilliantly, and his work prevented much
higher score being made against his team.

Joseph Choynski of California whipped
James Ryan of Australia in the seventh
round of their fight last night at the Broad
way Athletic Club, New York.
Choynsk was far the cleverer and the
result was expected. Ryan was outpointed
from the first tap of the gong, and when
the Knockout came Choynski was as fresh
when he began.
Ryans previous showing with Choynsk
with whom he stayed twenty rounds. made
some people bet even money that Ryan
would stay the limit this time. But the
even money they bet was badly invested, as
Ryan never had possible show.

The gridron at Georgetown University
yesterday afternoon was the scene of

of the Western High School and Emerson

the playing Of Green Of Emerson at left
end. especially a fine seventy-five yard run
around the end for the only touchdown
scored by either side. Beard was barred
from trying for goal, as he touched the
ball. contrary to the rules. Duell, captain
OF the Emersons. made repeated gains
through Westerns hard-held line. Beard
played plucky game at center, as did
Gordon for Western at left half back.
Both teams put up a fine exhibition of foot
ball playing. and the game was notable
