Eddy Lenny is Badly Beaten by
Bonnie Yanger.
Philadelphia Boy Knocked About
Like a Football.
STAYED SIX ROUNDS.
STAYED SIX ROUNDS.
Was Punched Out Through the
Ropes Once.
Managed to Stay by Clinching
and Holding Rope.

Chicago, March 1S.-Clever footwork
and constantly holding while in trouble
was all that saved Eddie Lenny, of
Philadelphia, from being knocked out
last night by Benny Yanger at the
America club. Yanger forced the fight
ing from the start and easily gained
the decision at the end of six rounds of
as fast lighting as ever was witnessed
in Chicago. Lenny showed up fairly
well in the first two rounds, but after
that hangers stiff body blows began
to tell and a knock out seemed a posi-
bility at any moment
Lenny was decidedly weak in the
fourth round, and during the exchanges
as they neared the edge of the ring he
grasped the rope with both hands, and
the combined efforts of the referee and
Yanger were needed to break his hold.
Lenny was tottering as the round end
ed. He was in a, bad way through the
fifth round, but avoided a knock out
by constant clinching and holding. In
the last round Yanger knocked Lenny
through the ropes. After helping him
into the ring Yanger tried to finish him,
but the eastern boy fell into a clinch
and hung on until he had recovered
sufficiently to dance out of reach. Lenny
was barely able to stand when the con-
test ended.
Wild Bill Hanrahan of New York and
Jack Beauscholt of Chicago, went six
cumbersome rounds to draw.

1T MAY BE HANLON.
Brooklyn Man Talked of For National
-. League President

+ New York. March 1s.-The beginning
of the baseball season may see Edward
Hanlon, manager of the Brooklyn club,
president of the National league. His
name has been suggested as a compro-
mise candidate Hanlon believes that
peace will be restored soon. He said
today:
Il have always maintained that the
National league would be playing ball
when the season starts, and have laid
my plans on no other basis have
signed players, paid out advance money,
arranged for spring training quarters
and incurred lots of other expenses, and
1 shall not be surprised at any time to
see an amicable adjustment of the
whole situation after the court renders
it's opinion"
Baseball experts agree that the only
way. a settlement in the present war
can be brought about is to elect a"eom-
promise" president. who is to adjust
whatever differences exist. The Sugges-
ton of Hanlon's name for the place
seems an excellent one, as he possesses
the experience and executive ability for
that important position.

CLAY COUNTY POLITICS.
Candidates For Offices Are " Being
Mentioned.n

Clay Center, March 1S.-Candidates
for county offices are beginning to bob
William Anthony w. E Dunaway
Phil Parrot and ]. H. Russell
all want the nomination for county at
torney on the Republican ticket. j. H.
Russell is the present incumbent and
serving his second term, but he is very
popular with the boys and may beat the
field. Miss Eff1e A. Loader is the logical
candidate for county superintendent,
but it is a question whether she can get
the nomination. She was nominated for
the same office two. years ago and ran
against d. o. Hemphill, the present in
cumbent, but was slaughtered in the
house of her friends, to get even with
her father, John A. LoaderA an old SOL
der and life long Republican, who had
incurred the enrnity of the ring, by be-
ing opposed to their methods ]. w
Erickson will have considerable oppoSi-
ton for register. of deeds in the Repub-
hcan convention while Sheriff u. E
Need will have walkaway. 1t is said
that ]. A. jacobson will be a candidate
for clerk of the district court for third
term. He will have strong opposition
in ]. c, Dillingham; of Wakefield, who
has many friends in the county and has
held the office of trustee in Republican
township since Adam was a boy. The
present Den1o-Pop officers are on the
anxious seat and don't know whether
to be candidates for reelection or not.
If the signs are right they will again
ask the support and votes of their
friends to put them back in their of
fees hut at present they are guessing.
Z. r. Hopes would like to get the Re-
publican nomination for county clerk.
Mr.. Hopes is secretary of the Repub-
lican central committee and a good
clean man, but he will be opposed by
the Times for the nomination for rea-
sons known to the Times. The candi-
dates for treasurer and probate judge
have not yet been announced, but it IS
early and by June 1 there will be plenty
of candidates for these offices and the
people will have pick and choice.
