HANLON HAD
NARY CHANCE
Fighting Dick HyIand
Wins Battle
Easily.

SAN FRANCISCO. September o.
Fighting Dick Hyland was true to his
name. With the odds against him,
with a reputation for dealing punish
ing blows, but lacking In the science,
he administered a beating to Eddie
Hanlon last night that ended only
when the referee, Jack WEIGH, stopped
the unequal encounter before the thir-
teenth round was fairly on its way.
1t was Hyland's fight from start to
finish, and told over again that old, old
story of the youth against the man who
has been at the game too long.
Hanlon was game, but gameness did
not win him the fight. From the time
the men matched blows. it was evident
that Hyland was the stronger OF the
two, and when, in the third, he fairly
smothered his opponent with kidney
punches and swings to the jaw, Han
ions defeat was conceded. From then
to the finish, it was merely a ques-
ton of time. Eddie showed a flash of
his former speed in the fifth, but only
a flash. After that he was gradually
worn down. In the eleventh round,
Hanlon was all but out as the gong
rang. A left jab to the jaw and
straight right would have sent him to
the canvas. But Hyland merely pro-
onged the agony. He hammered at
his man in the twelfth and in that part
of the thirteenth that was allowed to
proceed. Eddie merely doubled up his
hands and took the beating he was
destined to receive. The referee saved
him a clean knockout, and settled
contest that could have no other out
come than the victory of Hyland.
It was not a contest of class on the
part of either man. While Hyland
lacked the finer points of boxing that
would have brought a knockout, he had
the stamina to win. Hanlon lacked
everything of old, save his crouch, and
that could not protect him. He had no
speed no cleverness, no strength be-
hind his punches, and but few of the
short-arm jabs that he sent home had
steam enough to sting.
Eddie has run his race. To say that
he was no gutter, that he was ready
to stand up in the ring, Is the only
praise that you can give him, and he
was cheered to the echo when he walk
ed across the ring, brokenhearted
youth, aged before the time and crying
out in his bitterness that never again
would he fight.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

The opening "socker'' match OF the
season was played at the baseball park
yesterday. the competing teams being
the Diamond Heads and the Y. NJ. c.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
game was of practice nature the at
tendance was good.

The game was fairly good, but rath-
er slow, which is not to be wondered
at, however, when the earliness of the
season is taken into consideration.
The goals were scored by F. Bailey,
J. Woo, J. Anderson and E. Fernan-
DEE. the Iatters contribution being of
a particularly brilliant nature.
J. H. Fiddes refereed the game to
everybody's satisfaction.

SUNDAY YACHT
RACING

Editor Advertiser: In view of the
fact that the Honolulu Yacht Club has
ordered the Beckley Cup race to be
sailed tomorrow Sunday. against the
objection of some of the principal
yacht-owners. I beg to call attention to
the views upon this subject, of the
yacht clubs upon the mainland
Forest and Stream magazine de-
voted to yachting, among other sports,
publishes monthly lists OF all the yacht
races, cruises, meets and celebrations
of all kinds, scheduled to take place
in the United States, during the fol-
lowing month.
For July last, 146 races, cruises and
meets were scheduled. OF these, eleven
were set for Sundays and 135 for week
days
For August, 119 events were sched-
uled of which seven took place on
Sundays and 112 on week days.
For Semtember, 50 events were an
nounced, four of which were on sun
days and IS on other days.
In other words, out of 347 yachting
events taking place in the United States
during the nontnS Oh July, august oiio
4, September, 1906. only % took place on
Sunday and 325 on week days. OF the
% events but very few were race meets
the majority being ladies' day recep-
tons and cruises.
1t is well known that there is no more
liberal-minded and independent acting
class of men in the world than the
American yachting fraternity. They
have not put the ban on Sunday rae
ing, indicated by the foregoing figures
through any puritanical motives, but
because they believe the best interests
of the sport and of the community
at large are subserved by that course
I suggest that our local yachtsmen may
profit by their example.

THE LOST GRIP.

1t was joy to be alive,
When I could always see
My golf ball. from a slashing drive,
Go soaring off the tee;
When, as my lowered handicap
Fell ever nearer scratch,
I held my own with any chap
In medal play and match.
Then foozles never made me groan;
Then, gripping like a wise,
/ swung my club; then all unknown
Were top and pull and slice;
Then all my deft approaches sped
Directly to their goal;
Then all my longest puts lay dead,
Or fell into the hole.
Oh! cruel Fate that babe me look.
On one ill-omened day,
Upon the pictures in the book
OF Vardons hints on play!
For. though 1 quickly laid it by.
That one unlucky dip
Into it's pages made me try
The overlapping grip.
Now all my fingers are like thumbs,
My club turns round and round;
And divots. as it downward comes
Fly upward from the ground.
My golf ball skips to right or left
A few short yards and stops:
Or, with it's surface deeply cleft,
Into a bunker drops.
z And though I swear and fume and fret,
My efforts are in vain:
And, what is worse, / cannot get
The old style back again.
So now with signs and tears and frowns
I curse the diagrams
That cost me numberless half-crowns
And all! 50 many-regrettable COM
ments.

BUILDING THE SANTA FE.

According to railroad man
who has just come in from a
trip over the Jasper and East
ern, the work of construction
on that road is progressing nice
ly as far as the extension east OF
De Ridder is concerned. Seven
miles of the line have been built
and steel laid that distance also.
The work of the rest of the
eighteen miles between De Rid
der and the junction point is
being pushed with much pro-
gress, the McCabe & Steen
company rushing the work with
all possible haste. The juno
ton point is the place where
the line branches off to 90 to
the big plant OF the Industrial
Lumber company at Oakdale.
The main line will be continued
to Alexandria, although
no contract for that work has as
yet been let. L he distance
from the junction point to Oak
dale is about twenty-five miles.

offered.

QUICK WORK

The last week has been full of
work on the part Of the Health
Department Of the State aud city
and to day New Iberia is in better
condition as regards health than
for long time. The facts of the
matter are these:
Late last week the fact that there
was single case of yellow fever
here was made public, The case
and the sanitation Of the city was
Immediately turned over to the
Stated Board Of Health. DR.. Irion,
President of the State Board came
here and took personal charge of
the matter and so well has the sit
uation been handled that there has
been no quarantine against the
city except in one instance, that of
Jeanerette whose health officers
timidity evidently got the better of
his judgement.
Through the efforts OF DR.. Irion
the other states have declared
against action in this state or
section. The railroad has not sold
any tickets out Of here since the
discovery of the case and the lid
will remain down till there is no
more danger of the spread of dis
ease.
Meantime the forces of fumiga-
tors have been actively engaged in
killing all the loose mosquitoes in
the city. The section of the city
Immediately surrounding the home
of the lone patient has been quar-
antined and since there has been
no other case discovered up to the
present time, it is regarded as GER
tain that the only fever infected
mosquito here was the one that bit
the boy who is now recovering
from the attack.
While business has been some
what affected the people Of the Par. !!
ish have expressed confidence in
the officials and have generally con-
tinued to do their trading here. 1t
is expected that within a week |
traffic will be as lively as it was
before the discovery Of the case.
Taken as a whole, the State is to
be congratulated on the outcome of
the single case OF fever. 1t is
within the range of reason to be.
lieve that it wi II be the sole one In
The State this year. At any rate 1t
,annot be claimed that any infected
was allowed to escape
here aud there will be no fear that
my case that might appear hereaf
jer may be traced to this city.

LEBLANC TO DIE.
Governor Blanchard Fixes October
10 as Date Of Execution.

Governor Blanchard has sign
ed the death warrant of Elus
Leblanc, the young white man
convicted of wife murder in St,
Martin parish, and named Fri
day, October I5, as the day on
which the execution shall take
place. The governor also or
dered that Ike Bergman, con-
vlcted of murder in Caddo par
lsh, be hung on the same day.
Leblanc is twenty-six years
old and his wife was two years
his junior. The murder Of the
woman was committed nearly
two years ago, since which time
every effort has been made to
save the husband from the gal
lows. The young woman was
found in bed with her throat cut
from ear to ear, and the wounds
on her hands and arms indicat-
ed that she had struggled hard
for her life, consequently the
theory of suicide advanced by
LeBIanc's counsel failed to carry
any weight with the jury.
While confined in his cell at
St. Martlnville several months
ago Leblanc made an attempt
to commit suicide by slashing
his throat with penknife which,
in some unaccountable manner
had been struggled to him, but
was prevented from completing
the job by the interference of an
officer.
This case has been twice be-
tore the lower courts, once be-
fore the Supreme Court and
finally before the State Board of
Pardons in an effort to get
communication of sentence. At.
is recent meeting the board par
ions refused to take any action
n the matter.

CAN'T SWEAR IN PHONE.

Jackson, Aug. 24.-T'o the
city of Greenvillc is entitled to
the distinction of being the first
municipality in Mississippi to
prohibit long distance profanity.
Gan ordinance to prohibit the
use of abusive, insulting or pro-
fame langage over the telephone, -
has just been enacted by the
municipal council at Greenville,
and the party who violates its
provisions may be fined $Ioo
and given ninety days in Jail,
which means that cussing by
telephone is costly at the Wash
ington county capital.
incidentally, the ordinance
establishes differential between
abusing person to his face and
calling him up over the tele-
phone for the purpose of using
explositive language, and doubt
less the penalty is made heavier
tor the latter because of the fact
that if is generally safer than
curslng person to his face.
AT any rate, the Greenville
council has put crimp in cleo
trically-transmitted profanity, and
the folks in that town who are
addicted to the habit will be
compelled to short circuit their
swearing.

A PLEASURE PARK.

At last the city is0 to have :
park, a real pleasure grounc
where the people may gather
free of all charge and enjoy the
pleasant Fall and Winter after
moons and evenings that are &c
come, for the park is even now
under way and it will be thrown
open to the public before the
fall season is fairly upon US.
This park is located on the
banks of the Bayou on part
of the Lewis Estate. 1t has a
frontage on this side of more
than half a thousand feet on the
stream and it has for an en-
trance street that leads only
to its gate, a hundred feet from
Main Street.
There is now in course of
erection a handsome gateway
that will attract immediate at
tention to the park which will
be called "White Wings Park"
The main pavilion will be
about 80 by lao feet and the
main floor will be about SO by
90 feet, the stage and dressing
rooms occupying the balance OF
the enclosure. This floor can
be using for dancing and it is
the intention to use it for a
skating rink when there are no
other entertainments in pro-
gress.
The stage will be fitted up in
an up-to-date manner and will
be large enough to accommodate
the biggest companies it they
desire TO come here, but it is the
intention of the Association to
use it at present for the perform
ances OF the Clifford Dramatic
Club and for special entertain
ments.
This Park is in charge of the
White Wings Park Association,
Or a committee of people who
ire interested in advancing the
interests OF the city, 1t will not
BE operated for the purpose of
,ain but a large part OF the pro.
'eeds will be devoted to charity.
The affairs of the Association
ave been delegated to special {
ommi,tee consisting of Messrs.
'ercy II. Clifford, Mr.. r. A. Z
'omeroy and Mr.. H. ]. Hill !
nd Mr.. Clifford will act as lDi-
sctor.
The Executive committee OF !
