Los Angeles, Aug. 16.-Littlc Phil
Brock, the Cleveland lightweight, was
knocked out last week, but It took a
blow with a heavy mop handle, the
weapon being welded by Jim Barry.
the 2OO-pound Chicago heavyweight,
to turn the trick.
AS the result Of a desperate rough
and tumble fight which occurred az
1000 o'clock in the morning Brock
had his scalp laid open and his man
aGer, 20 X Tom McGlnty, received
a painful wound in his right side. After
breaking the mop handle over Brock
head, Barry used the jagged end

TO his knees, producing an ugly cut
over the ribs. Barry also fired a re-

with Intent to Kill. This charge was
later modified TO read assault with
deadly weapons.
The affair occurred IN the fighters

road. where Brock and Barry were
working. The cause was a trivial
one
Barry, who had been mopping up
the floor of the bath and rubbing

the clean boards. But a few words
were spoken when Barry struck Brock
while the latter was in a sitting posi-

his protege. and according TO eyewit-
nesses. was actually whipping the
Chicago giant when Barry used the
broken mop handle. quickly turning
the tide of battle in his favor,
McGlnty was brought to tho city
and after having his wound dressed
returned to the camp. II was report,

such a serious turn that his relatives
in Cleveland had been notified. Nc
Glnty was in a delirious condition at
that time and blood poisoning was
feared.

NEAR BEER" SOLD
AT TIE HERMITAGE

so near and yet so far" the oft.
repeated phrase. Ogden can"on Wis
itors yesterday say might well have
been applied TO the situation at the
Hermitage. The Hermitage was dry
all right. as were other parts Of the
canyon; that Is, In places. AT the
Hermitage the people came very near
getting something TO drink in the
shape of a stimulating beverage. An
industrious man was busily engaged
selling near beer" and many there
were who rushed in to get next It
was so near and yet so far" from
the real beverage that some really
thought It a joke. Parties approached
Deputy Sheriff Naylln and PROFOUND
ing the query. Can we get a glass
OF beer2" were answered by the officer
thus; You can get near beer under
that little clump OF trees yonder,
and the parties would get near beer
The usual crowds attended the va
rious resorts OF the canyon yester-
day, Notwithstanding the fact that
the weather was threatening. During
the afternoon watcr-1lled clouds hung
about the canyon beauty spots and at
brief intervals gentle showers of
rain manifested themselves in re-
freshlng attitudes. But withal, the
day was rather warm a humid. sui
try heat prevailed. both In the canyon
and In the city, the temperature In the
latter place reaching a point as high
as 90 degrees in the shade. In the
early evening. however, an accommo-
dating breeze came down the differ
ent canyons east of the city.
The street car service in the can
yon was quite adequate TO handle the
crowds and no accident occurred
during the day There were a num-
ber OF the members of the Grand
Army of the Republic visiting the
beautiful canyon, many OF them being
from far eastern states. The great
gorge was a complete revelation TO
them and they were loath TO leave the
canyon haunts when the time for their
return TO the city came.

ARKANSAS VETERAN
TALKS OF STIRRING TIMES

There are a great many people in
this country even among veterans of
the Civil war. who are unaware of the
fact that Arkansas furnished troops
for the Union side of the struggle"
said w. H, Shaver of company NJ,
First regiment of the Arkansas cavalry
of volunteers yesterday at the Euro
pean hotel. but Arkansas did that
very thing and II is more than likely
that we were about as good lighters
as the Union side had in Its ranks.
1T is generally supposed that Ar
kansas was Il rabid secession state
and that all her citizens were ardent
sympathizers with the Confederates,
but that is not true There were
many of us who had always been op-
posed 10 the idea of secession and wo
were willing 10 fight for the Union.
Those were strenuous times. ! tell you.
and in the southern states 1t almost
meant a mans life 10 oppose the south

when IL was learned that | had eS.
poused the cause of the north, / had
10 go into hiding In order to save my
life There were many depredations
being committed at that time, and
nearly everything that happened any
where near my home was charged up
to me. and my boyhood friends began
10 look upon me as one of the worst
characters in the whole state OF Ar
kansas. But was not any such thing
never knowingly wronged a man In
my life"
Mr Shaver attended the national
encampment at salt Lake and on his
way home stopped off in ogden to rest
up and see the beauties OF this place.
He was much taken up with Ogden
and its immediate surroundings He
said the old soldiers had spent very
happy time at the encampment. but.
