FIGHT LID PUT
ON AT PEORIA

Peoria, Ill, Dec. 1.-THE lid on prize
hghting in Peoria is down and will not
be lifted, according to Sheriff Grant
Minor.
The ten round draw last night be-
tween Kid Farmer and Harry Dono-
hue, under the auspices of the Mar
quette club, was too much of the real
thing and the lid has been frightened
as consequence. Sheriff Minor said !:
You can say for me and make it as
strong as you like that there will be
no more public boxing contests such
as have been held lately in the Cen
tral Park pavilion during my term of
ofnce. They are nothing more than
prize nights strictly bias to the law.
and l will not permit it. Irrespective
or what action any one else plans or
intends to take, this office will use
every effort to see that public prize
fights are prohibited"
