that action will be taken to have such
licenses declared illegal In this city,

FLYNN RUNS FROM
A SLEEPY BULL
Shakes a Red Flag at the Listless
Animal, and Then Climbs Over
the Fence When FL Toro
Wanders Away
Special to The Herald.

Special TO The Herald.
SAN DIEGO, March 17.-As a bull
fighter, Jim Flynn the Colorado heavy
weight pugilist. proved a spectacular
success this afternoon at Tia Juana.
That he escaped with his life is re-
garded as little short of marvellous. His
sprinting ability came as a revelation
to all who witnessed the performance,
and every one hereabout readily realizes
why he leaves the ring so often without
a scratch
1t had been advertised far and wide
| that Flynn was to fight bull to the
death single-handed, and great was
the gathering at Tia Juana today when
! fight time drew near.
Flynn, and Rubio, manager of TIE
fray, posed on a small pedestal in the
center of the arena after the first
event had been concluded.
Silence was intense as the signal
came to let the wild animal loose.
Liberated from the corral woddled an
animal which resembled nothing so
much as a fat family milch COW. All
eyes were upon the brave Flynn as the
kline wandered toward him, gazing
mournfully and whisking flies from
sleek fianks.
viva la Flynno!" shouted the throng.
Jim didn't know what that meant, but
he waved a red rag gently toward
bossy. The latter was much cut up
over this wicked performance and
bawled in disapprobation
Hiding behind Rubio, Flynn said
something that sounded like boo" At
this the bull turned and walked away.
When his prey was well to the far side
of the ring valiant Jim jumped from
his perch and rushed to one Of the
safety blinds.
Even this protection was not suffi-
Client, and finally while picadores were
trying to interest the poor bull, Flynn
sneaked over the areana fence and
reached safety amid tumultuous ap-
plause of the sarcastic assemblage He
refused to return, and others jabbed
1 the poor beast to death.

BOURSE HAS ITS
WORST WEEK
BY Associated Press.

BERLIN, March 17.-"The worst
week the bourse has had in thirty
years" is the verdict of ono of the
financial reviewers in summing up last
weeks movements in the stock market.
The events in Wall street made a
profound impression in Germany, and
We're reinforced by the declaration in
the Deutsche banks annual report is
sued early in the week, that the world
boom could not last through the year,
owing to the stringency Of money.
This utterance played great role in
the weeks market
While the fall in prices in Wall street
brought heavy losses to German holders
Of American securities, there was re-
neWed buying for German account
brought about by the low prices re-
ported by the cables. Many orders were
sent to New York and London after
| Thursdays low water prices were
reached, the payment for these and
the transfers of American balances to
London causing heavy demands for
London exchange and bringing the ex-
port of gold apparently near.
There is much apprehension mani
tested here lest New York begins the
week by the importation of gold from
England This and the steady advance
| in the private discount rate renders an
advance in the Reichsbank's rate not
! improbable.
The Frankfurter Zeitung admits the
probability of the adoption OF an ad-
vance before the end of the month.
The private discount rate Is now with
In one-quarter per cent Traders al
ready are offering per cent for Con-
| tango money, but the lenders are slow
at placing amounts so early in the
month The heavy demand for money
| from provincial towns continues.
| The latest reports from the indus
/ trial centers indicate undiminished
prosperity. The local mines are un-
able to supply the demand for coal and
coke. but there is scarcity Of pig iron
and steel materials.

HAGERMAN DOES NOT
BELIEVE IN BATHING

Local admirers of Percival Hager-
man, formerly a well-known college
athlete of Los Angeles, will be inter-
ested to learn that Hag does not be-
lieve In the use of water unless for
drinking purposes.
The following from an eastern ex-
change tells of Percivars antipathy to
the cleansing liquid:
Abstinence from baths is the newest
feature I'm track team training intro
duced by Coach J. 2. Hagerman OF the
University of Kansas track team.
THE men bathed Sunday and were
told not even to go out in the rain
until after the Kansas Missouri track
team meet in Kansas City Friday
night. For five days the men will do
hard training and not one will be al
lowed to do more than wash his face
and hands.
"Hagerman for the last two weeks
has limited the men to cold showers of
only a few minutes duration, but Sun
day he Issued the order for the ath-
letes to shun the fatal bath tub as they
would tobacco or liquor. Hagerman
contends that water weakens the mus
cles"
