FOUGHT TEN SPEEDY
ROUNDS TO A DRAW

BALTIMORE Md, August 31.-Tommy
Lowe of Washington and Eddie Carter of
Philadelphia made a hurricane battle for
Club at the Germania- Maennerchor Hall
last night. 1t was the opening Of long
distance fighting in Baltimore and Car
ter and Lowe furnished a battle that
created enthusiasm. Lowe and Carter were
to have gone for fifteen rounds to a de-
cision, but the limit of the mill was cut
down because Of the small attendance.
Ten rounds were agreed upon by the prin-
cipals, who furnished one of the fastest
mills in this locality in long time. They
went the limit, and the battle at the end
was declared a draw by Fred Swigert, who
isfactory to Carter. who has been making
a good impression in this city. He fought
a game battle and one for which he de-
serves credit He looked as though out
classed during the early rounds of the mill,
but he came back strong in the latter
After the sixth round Carter went at
Lowe with both hands, and from then I'M
til the finish Lowe was in worried state.
Carter had the better of the slugging, for
Lowe in this style was far from being at
home. In the ninth round Carter seemed
to have Lowe in a bad state. for he
planted several rights that started the
claret flowing from the Washington boys
eye. Lowe rallied in the last round. but
this was not sufficient to overcome the
lead that Carter had obtained in the pre-
viouS rounds of the battle. A draw with
Lowe was more than creditable to Car
ter. when it was considered that Lowe
did not lose a battle during the entire last
season. The boys looked evenly matched
and their style of boxing was the same.

NINE HOLES NEARLY READY.
Work on the Golf Course in Rock
Creek Park.

The public golf course that has been con-
structed in Rock Creek Park near the
Brghtwood Driving Park has reached an
advanced stage, nine holes being almost
ready for use. According to the Commits
sioners it is likely the grounds will be
thrown open to the public within a few
months.
The plans call for links of eighteen holes
but the engineer department has devoted
its entire attention to the first nine holes,
and will not begin upon the other half for
a month or so. The entire course will not
be ready for public use before next spring.
Commissioner West is enthusiastic and
skillful golfer; said he has visited the course
a number of times during it's construction.
and he considers it to be one of the best in
the District. He believes it will prove to be
very popular The general topography and
the scenery he said, make the locality
an ideal one for golfing. The hazards (most
of which are naturaD are great" He ex-
pressed himself looking upon the course
as excellent and sporty"
The course begins a short distance south
of the reservoir and few feet west of
tween Rock creek and 10th street, across
the Military road a short distance north
of Milk House ford, crossing. also, the pr-
vate property adjoining the park belong
ing to c. c. Glover. Mr.. Cover has con-
scented to this use of the property. The
beginning and finish of the course are both
less than two blocks from the 14th street

ARCHBISHOP WILLIAMS DEAD.
Ag edNew ngland Prelate Passes Away
Boston.

BOSTON, August 31.-Archbishop John ].
Williams of the Catholic Church and for
generation or more the spiritual head Of
that faith in New England, died yesterday
at the archiepiscopal residence in Union
Park street. The archbishop was so weak
yesterday forenoon that it was deemed adj
visable to prepare for the worst and the
last sacraments of the church were adj
ministered by the Rev. DR.. John T. Mullen,
the rector of the cathedral.
The archbishop's illness began about the
first of this month, while he was at Lake
Hemlock, near Rochester, N. Y, at the
| summer home of Bishop McQuade of that
diocese. Archbishop Williams was eighty
fve years old.
Archbishop John Joseph Williams was
born in Boston. April 81. 1922. He became
student at the parochial school until he
entered the College of Montreal. where he
was graduated in 1871, after which he
went through course of theology at St.
Sulpice Paris, France In 1915 he was Or
dained to the priesthood and became an as
Sistant.
In 1865 he was made rector of the Boston
Cathedral. and served In that position for
two years, when he became the pastor Of
| st. James Church, Boston In 1866 he be-
came the bishop OF Boston, and served in
| that capacity until Boston was made a
| metropolitan See when he became arch
| bishop on the death of Archbishop Fitz-
| patrick.

monument to his memory will be the mag

stone was laid. The cathedral is now fin

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, August 31.-Schools for
authors, In which those inclined toward
literature as a profession may become
real poets or novelists. is the new pro-
posal of Walter Hines Page, editor of
THE Worlds Work" He believes that col
leges should add to their departments post
graduate courses in the art of writing to
stem the tide of poor composition. Make
the students white 1000 words a day and
insist on the professor doing likewise, Mr..
Page advises.
The professors need the training as badly
as the embryo literateurs, he believes. Let
the students keep up the daily toll for three
or four years. by which time they will
have written from twelve to sixteen vol
umes and then II they are good admit
them to the profession.
Mr.. Pages views were expressed at the
University Of Chicago in the convocation
address of the sixty-fourth graduating ex-
ercises of the institution.
He attacked Evth the present-day writer
and the university. especially the profess
sional novelists. Writing, he pointed out,
has come to be one of the regular pro-
LESSONS, ranking closely behind the law,
medicine and teaching. Therefore like
the physician and lawyer. the writer should
be trained in all the arts and crafts of
composition. and for this purpose the col
leges of the country should institute spe-
cial schools of writing
Some of Mr.. Pages proposals for de-
veloping authors were as follows:
Poet students to write a sonnet q day
for term.
Prose students to write 1000 words
day.
Professors to exercise their imagination
in similar degree.
One professor to every six or eight stu
dents.
Students must have an A. B. or equiva-
lent degree.
Professors must be practical writer's and
not mere students.
up to this time" said Mr.. Page, writ
Ing has been a harum-scarum, rough-and-
tumble business, with lots of superstition
and little training or experience. But we
must follow the example OF the other
crafts. Let us have professional post
graduate schools to teach men and women
how to write"

MEAT LOCKOUT CONTINUES.
Transfers Make Another Effort to Go
Back to Work.

NEW YORK, August 31.-Another offer
made on behalf of the striking meat wagon
drivers to have the strike arbtrated was
refused yesterday by the Wholesale Butch
ers Employers Association, through its
president, w. H. Noyes. Mr. Moves re-
ceived a communication signed by five Of
tcers of the Transfers Union, suggesting
that the committee confer with him with a
view to settling the strike. He sent q re-
ply to the effect that the association was
of the opinion that there was nothing on
which their former employees could base a
claim to arbitration or consideration.
Instead of twenty mounted policemen
being detailed to the East Side and the
same number to the West Side, as has been
the case hitherto. fifty mounted police
were detailed to the East Side and fifty to
the West Side yesterday. This was be-
cause there will be extra deliveries to the
dealers to enable them to supply their Sum
day customers. The extra guard will be
kept up today.

FIRE IN CoMMUNIPAW.
Several Blocks of Factories, Shops and
Stables Burn.

NEW YORK. August 31.-A lucky shift
OF wind and the strenuous efforts of the
firemen on land and bay prevented a bad
fire which ragged for two hours along the
water front of Communipaw early last
night from doing serious damage to ship
ping.
The fire started. nobody seems to know
how. in the structural iron works Of the
Snare & Trest Company, which runs along
the Gap. Before the firemen could get
their hose stretched it had spread by quick
leaps north along the Gap to Miller's ma
chine shops. where it jumped to Essex
street, to the strip factory of Hysaerp &
Buffe The sirup factory is four-story
brick building and went quickly. The sirup
made a fine blaze which lighted up the
bay and brought the fireboat New Yorker
hurrying to the scene.
The wind was blowing strong from the
north at that time and the fire apparently
was getting beyond the control of the Jer-
sey City firemen. 1t looked as though the
entire water front might go until the New
Yorker began throwing her powerful
streams of water and the almost simultane-
Gus shifting of the wind.
The fire ran north, when the wind
changed taking in the factories of Thomas
Mclaughlin and William ]. Barry. on
Greene and Essex streets. then spread to
the stables of the Uvalde Asphalt Com
pany. where fresh fuel was supplied to the
fire by great quantities Of tar.
1t burned itself out when it had COM
pleted a circuit of the blocks bounded by
Hudson. Essex and Greene streets and the
Morris canal basin. The New Yorker kept
the fire from spreading any further and
also saved the Polish settlement on Essex
street, which was threatened.
There was some excitement among the
Polacks when the police ordered them to
f1aS- a~fn ov,1 MT
until the firemen aided the police that they
were able to drive them to sa fer place.
The damage was estimated by insurance
men at about 100000.
