 Four thousand or more seats had been sold for the occasion. a thousand people came in special trains from Chicago and other cities and Daven- port Is filled tonight with a disgusted lot of sports. Today Governor Cum mins satisfied himself that the; fight 'at Davenport was not to be mere scientific sparring exhibition" as 1t had been carefully advertised. and there was also the suspicion that if left to local officers. there might be liberal construction of the statute pro- hibitfng prize fighting.
 Therefore late this afternoon, Cover nor Cunmins called out the militia at Davenport and ordered them to take possession of the Coliseum where the fight was tA be pulled off, He also wired the sheriff at Davenport direct ing him to corporate in every way with the militia. Rumor at Davenport has it that an effort will be made to pull off the fight anyway.

MILITIA AT FIGHT
GOVERNOR OF IOWA TRIED TO PRE-

McFarIan and Herman Fought It Out, However, and the Former Was the WtnneR Without .
 Decision.

Davenport, Ia.. Nov. 21.--"Packy" McFarlan proved his superiority over Kid" Herman tonight by easily beat ing Herman in a flfteen-round fight without a decision. No decision was awarded because of Governor Cummins' order to the militia to prevent a fight. But in the last few rounds knockout seemed probably at any time and when the light ended, Herman was hanging on to Mcfarland who rained terrific blowsat short range on Herman's neck. head and face.
 In the earlier rounds Herman showed some of the dash and elusiyeness that carried him to victory in his earlier fights but he was no match for the rug ged stock yards fighter. Mcfarland would probably have won by the knockout route If 1t had not been for the peculiar conditions under which the fight was held. Herman was game to the last undep the same hard gruelling that had put Joe Gallighan, Steve Kin ney and a score of others to the cam vass for the count. The pace was not of the killing order, however. until the last half of the contest, when the box CTS let loose as If punches were to de- eide the bout instead of points.

NOVEL ROADBED CLEANING

The Oregon Short Line railroad peo-
pie have adopted novel method of
keeping their roadbed clean and free
from weeds. The company has placed
in Salt Lake, at a point where the water
is very heavily charged with salt, large
pump, and this pump is used to lift the
salt water into tank cars. whole train of
these tank cars are filled with water and
the train is run over the line and the
roadbed thoroughly sprinkled by de-
vice attached to each car After these
trains have been over the road several
times the weeds all disappear and the
roadbed is made hard and clean. The
old plan of keeping crew of men at
work on the road to keep the weeds
down has been abandoned and the com
pany is saving great deal of money by
its new method of keeping the roadway
clean These trains are used for several
hundred miles of road on each side of
the lake.
