KETCHEL KNOCKED OUT
By BILLY PAPKE
latter Was a Fighting Whirlwind and
After the First Round There Was
No Doubt of the Result.

Los Angeles, Sept. s.--Stanley ketchel
of Michigan, former middleweight cham.
pion Of the world, was knocked out in
the twelfth round at JetTries' Vernon
Arena yesterday afternoon by Billy
Papke OF Illinois, who Is now middle.
weight champion Of the world.
Both men entered the ring in appar-
emily perfect condition and neither had
ever been worked out. Ketchcl had had
decision over Papke in ten.round
bout. The bout turned out TO be one
Of the bloodiest in ring history,
ketchel came in wearing a tattered
dressing gown, a worn hunting cap and
trunks OF green gauze. He had the smile
of an unspoiled, and look OF purpose
When Papke came in, be also wore an
old dressing gown and a boyish smile.
hctchcl was plainly the iayorite OF the
crowd, which had been betting on him

walked hlithely to eKtchel's corner and
greeted him with handsbake and a
cordial smile, but when James j. JeJries.

walked TO the center, extending his hand
for the shake, Papke ignored the hand
and went at the Michigan man with the
impetuosity which has won for him the
title OF the "thunderbolt." The fight
was practically over minute and 20
minutes after the gong sounded From
that time on. it was merely question
as to how long etchel would last. Papke
fought with such fury that the unde
feated champion was simply lifted OIL his
feet four times within the next minute.
He sent Ketcnel to the mat for the
count, and from the first knock down,
ketchel never really recovered his form.

blows in the face, yet he stayed with

A STRANGE DISCOVERY.
Scientists Find That Beam Of Light
Produces Sound.

octeHtlSts rfnd mar 0eam of Ll9nt
Produces Sound.
One of the most wonderful discover
les In science that have been made
within the last year or two is the fact
that beam Of light produces sound.
A beam OF sunlight is thrown through
lens on glass vessel that contains
lampbIack. colored silk or worsted or
other substance. A disk having Sits
or openings cut In 1t is made to reyolye
swiftly In this beam of light so as to
cut 1t up, thus making alternate flashes
Of light and shadow On putting the
ear to the glass vessel strange sounds
are heard so long as the flashing beam
Is falling on the vessel.
Recently more wonderful discovery
has been made. A beam of sunlight ia
made TO pass through the prism so TO
produce what Is called the solar spec
trum, or rainbow. The disk is turned,
and the colored light of the rainbow Is
made to break through It, Now place
the ear to the vessel containing the silk,
wool or other material. AS the colored
lights Of the spectrum fall upon 1t
sounds will be given by different parts
of the spectrum, and there will be ST.
ience in other parts.
For instance. If the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light flashes
upon It loud sounds will be given.
Only feeble sounds will be heard when
the red and blue parts Of the rainbow
fall upon the vessel, and other colors
make no sound at all. Green silk gives
sound best in red light Every kind of
material gives more or less sound in
different colors and utters no sound In
others.
The discovery is strange one, and II
Is thought more wonderful things viii

appearance in Ohio is sure to increase his

difficult the home opposition to his re.
nomination. Ohio Republicans evidently
regard New Yorks governor with the
utmost approval. His defeat at Sara.

LABOR DAY IN zoos.

1t has been just ten years since the
state of Vermont gave public recogni-
ton to labor by designating that day

ance, the law making Labor Day legal
holiday having been passed at the legis-
lative session Of 1898, fathcred chiefly by
Representative George 7. Swasey, who
filled Barre City's seat in the house of
Representatives. Those ten years have
seen the holiday grow in popularity in
Vermont to such an extent that it is one
Of the most generally observed OF our
national fete days. The formal celehra-
tion Of the day is, as yet restricted to
the larger eenters where manufacturing
concerns have brought great many
workmen together; but as holiday it
is recognized most everywhere. Perhaps
in rural Vermont there will never be
wide attention paid to the presentation
Of formal programs; that will be left
to places like Barre, Burlington, Rut-
land, Montpelier, Bellows Falls, etc. But
the spirit of the day is making great
Roadway in all places, nevertheless.
Locally, Labor Day of 1908 finds the
community in very satisfactory shape
as regards labor matters, as indeed is
the case throughout the entire country.
Capital and labor are dwelling together
very amicably in Barre, and there is
every indication that the present eondi-
