Harry Lewis of Galveston was knocked
out by Tommy Campbell of Omaha in the
third round of what was to have been a
ten-round bout Friday night before the
Osthoff Athletic club. Near the end of the
third round Campbell landed a hard left
swing to Lewis jaw and followed II by a
left swing which put Lewis to the mat for
the count. Considerable doubt was ex-

back strong and confident in the third
round and reused Campbell's ire by con-

Much is heard of "doped horses" on
race track. The manner in which these
horses are "doped" is explained by a
prominent veterinarian: mo one is likely
to be caught in the act of doping a race
horse, because the dose given is so small
II can be administered with little danger of
detection long before the race If a horse
is to race at o'clock he gets a two-grain
powder on his tongue in a darkened stall
at / O'Clock. The drug takes effect in
about thirty minutes and the animal breaks
out into a sweat. He is rubbed down
cooled out and done up as IL he had come
in from morning work. Every effort is
made to keep him quiet until post time, but
he very often breaks out again and is
again cooled out. The doped horse never
takes any warming-up work, and this fact
affords the best means l know of for find
ing him out He is moved slowly to the
starting point, great care being taken to
prevent him from becoming excited until
the flag is dropped Then kick and dig
do the work. and In an instant the full
force OF the dope is felt, stimulating the
animal to run the race of his life"

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. n.--AdJutant
General Henry r. Lawrence returned to-
night from Jackson. He says the court of
appeals action In restraining further pro-
eeedings In the Hargis trial until after
next Tuesday had the effect Of calming
the anti-Hargis faction. which threatened
bloodshed. Special Judge Carnes appointed
an elisor from among the defendant
friends. Mr.. Lawrence found 1t to be the
general opinion that conditions at jackson
on Wednesday and Thursday OF this week
were far worse than they have ever been
in the history Of the present feud trouble.
He thinks troops will be necessary IL a
citizen Of Breathitt county is named as

The writ makes the immediate presence
