A Member of the New Legisla.
ture to Offer Bill.
In Case It 10 Passed Boxing Exhibi
tions May Be Enjoyed in the
State.
dANY ATHLETIC
CLUBS

A coterie Of local sports who are
fond of boxing exhibitions will nc
doubt be interested in o bill that is to
be introduced into the next Legislature
by member from Louisville.
The measure will be to leRsl:ze linn.
tied round boxing exhibitions, and the
lawmaker who is to father the meas.
ure, but does not desire his name
known, says Of it:
"Tae main object of the bill is to
give the public 4 chance to see first
class sparring exhibitions of limited
duration before incorporated clubs
which have permanent organization
and own a building, which must be
maintained by the year, with an &C.
tual bona fide membership.
1.-The new bill will call for Q suffi-
cient license, something like 5000,
which lie to 60 into the state treasury,
so as to keep all fly by night organiza.
tions in the rear.
mo knookouts will be permitted,
and the police will have charge Of all
events. Each club must agree to have
It's scheduled contestants examined by
\ physician IN order to determine their
ability to box. Gloves must not
weigh less than tive ounces.
Every effort will be made to pass
he bill during the session of the legis-
ature, and it is claimed that there
will be little objection when it comes
~.
The courts OF Kentucky take very
narrow view Of the law, and have con-
trued anything in the way of box
pg exhibition to be "prize fight"
Should the bill pass it would result
n the organization OF many athletic
,lubs probably one in Paduaoh.

Iberia Building Association,

From recent advices received
from Columbia it appears that
there is prospect of another comic
opera war in the little republic but
this time it promises to be one from
which the United States will reap
some benefit. 1t seems that the
inhabitant of the states Of Panama
and Cauca the isthmion provinces,
are unanimously in favor of the
ratification of the canal treaty but
the rest of Colombia is seriously
opposed to it unless this country
can be mulcted of a sum consider
ably in excess of the $4,000, 900
stipulated. In view of this situa-
ton the States named have deter
mined, in the event of the rejec-
ton of the treaty, to secede from
the large portion OF COLOMBIA ana
set up a little republic OF their
own. They will then apply TO
the United States for similar
treaty which, if they make any
show of success, will be promptly
given them. With the annuity OF
$3.50. 600 which the United States
is willing TO pay for the c9haj
zone they will have almost income
enough to run their little govern
ment and will be happy and COT
tended apart from the m"lh
country The physlcsii con - =!
including a chain of Inonntalns
which make comnliiica IoiI be-
tween these states and the rest OF
Colombia except by water, very
difficult, are believe to favor the
successful outcome of the tenta-
tive revolution.
