NELSON KEEPS
CHAMPIONSHIP
Defeated Cans. Veteran Negro
Pugilist, Second Time.
Fo9oed Fighting All the Way and
Cans Never Had Chance 10
Win-"My Last Battle"
WINS IN THE TwENTY-FIRsT

San Francisco, Cal. Sept To-
Battling Nelson clinohed his claim to
the lightweight pugilistic champion
ship BY defeating Joe Cans for the
second time at Gonna Arena. The
fight ended in the twenty-first round
when Cans, beaten down by a sue
cession of blows from his sturdy
conquerer, failed to get upon his feet
within the count Of ten.
The veteran colored fighter was
severely punished, but the champion
too, bore the marks of battle. From
the first olang of the gong to the last
moment Nelson forced the fighting
never giving ground and gradually
battered down his older and less Wig
orous opponent.
Cans succumbed in the twenty;
first round after being numerically
trounced. Nelson in this round
rained right and left blows TO the
Jaw and body and Cans sank to the
floor. Mechanically the now defeated
fighter watched Referee Smith wave
his hands, apparently too far gone
90 hear him count.
Not until the count of ten was
finished did Cans, his, face terribly
cut and his eyes CLASSY, attempt tC
. rise. He realized. however, that I
was too late and feebly declared: ''
have positively fought my last bat
tie"
AT no time did ii appear that Gani
had chance to win. Time and agail
he would shoot wicked punches L
Nelson's face and body, but the latte
never for an instant wavered. Failinl
10 arrest the rushing champion at an
stage. Cans seemed to lose heart anC
gradually weakened, though he Otter
rallied and fought back fiercely.

 spit on ths Constitution.

Washington. April 2s---A spirited at tack on prohibition was made today by Representative Richard Barthoidt, of Missouri. before the House Com mittee on the District of Columbia. which has under consideration the sims bill providing for prohibition in the District.
 -Prohibition is a deyilish device to nall the human family more securely to the cross of King Alcohol he de- clared. He also declared that the pre- fessional prohibitionists had .'corrall- cd women and children" and that they had .'cracked the whip over State Legislatures.
 Now" he continued. they are try ing to crack the whip over the Com xress of the United States. But this attempt we must regard not as com mand. but as a danger signal. Above all things, we must remember. that prohibition does not succeed In it's pur- poses and that 1t does nothing put promote lawless drunkenness.
 4 disregard for the Conptitution was another charge made by Mir. Barthoidt against the prohibition leaders.
 "They are willing to spit on the Con- stitution." he said. 'in order to carry their point"
 He told the committee that its merns bers would be called patriots by pos terity "for refusing to tear down our constitutional liberties without duly considering the matter" and said that this was the most important sup" ject now before Congress.
