At Washington the newspaper cor
respondents are telling the following
story about Representative Walter
Brownlow of Tennessee: Recently he
called up somebody at the White
House. He had fierce time. Central
who tried to get the number for
him. appeared TO be inexperienced or
asleep. Mr.. Brownlow. ordinarily the
most patient OF men. finally lost his
patience.
Look herer" he shouted; "quit this
foolishness, Either get me the White
House or give me some place where
/ may at least talk TO my intellectual
equal"
Silence for a moment. and then
over the wire came a good loud "Hei-
lo," in a mans voice.
Mr. Brownlow was much relieved.
What place is this?' he asked.
1.-The government hospital for the
insane, across the river" came the
answer.
Representative Brownlow is now en-
deavorlng to ascertain that centrais
name. He wants to have her pro-
noted. That's what he says TO the
newspaper men.-Judge.

YOUNG CORBiT EASY
VICTIM FOR FRAYkE
One Time conqueror of Terry McGov-
ern Goes Down in Eighth Round
Before Frisco Boy.
1py the Associated Press.l


SAN FRANCISCO. CAL. July H.
Young Corbett, the one time conquer
or OF Terry McGovern. proved an easy
victim for Young Johnny Frayne. of
San Francisco. who knocked him ont
today in the eighth round OF bout
scheduled to go 25 rounds. At no
time did Corbett appear to have a
chance.
The Corbett OF today was a mere
shadow of the once great lightweight
who but few years ago electrified
the sporting word with his wonderful
battles. His famous Hay maker" was
ill-timed and there was no power be-
hind 1t.
The contest was a tame and umn-
teresting affair In the eighth round
Frayne shot out right and left, CATCH
ing Corbett flush on the yaw. and the
one-time champion was nent to his
launches for count OF seven. He was
dazed and wabbIed about tine ring.
Frayne promptly toppled him over
with a powerful right and left to the
jaw. At this time a msrciful second
threw the sponge into the ring as a
token OF defeat and the Californian
was awarded the verdict by Referee
Krel;ng.
