PRIZE FIGHT
ENDS IN MURDER
Light Weight Pugilist Has
His Skull Fractured in
the Ring.
PARTICIPANTS ARE ARRESTED
May Result in Public Indignation
Preventing Johnson
Jeffries Bout.

San Francisco, April 30.-Tommy
Mccarthy light weight pugilist OF this
city, who was knocked out and his
skull fractured in the sixteenth round
in his fight with Owen Moran of Eng
land, last night, died of his injuries
at st. Mary's hospital early this morn
ing. McCarthy's skull was fractured
when he hit the floor. For more than
an hour he was under the knife ON the
operating table, but all efforts to save
his life proved unavailing. Moran
and his seconds and McCarthys s
brothers, who acted as the dead pugi-
lists seconds, were all arrested. What
effect this ring fatality will have on
the Jeffries-Johnson contest is the sub
ject of interesting speculation among
fight fans.
Fight Was a Fake.
San Francisco, April 30.-In his cell
today, Moran mourned the death Of
his opponent. He said it was an acci-
dent but a terrible one. Then wiping
his eyes the Englishman declared that
the fight was frame-up, the agree
ment being that Mccarthy be allowed
to stay fifteen rounds. In the six
teenth he crossed over his right and
Mccarthy went down unconscious.
He Prayed Too Late.
Moran spent the late hours of the
night on his knees in his cell praying
for the recovery of his opponent.
Johnson in Training Quarters.
San Francisco, April 30.-Jack John
son, accompanied by his trainers and
sparring partners, arrived here last
night. Johnson was met by Gleason
and Tex Richard, promoters of the
coming heavy weight contest and they
accompanied him to Seal Rock where
Johnson goes into training.
Charged With MansaugSter.
San Francisco, April 30.-Owen
Moran, the English lightweight pug
list, was formally charged with mar
slaughter today as the result of the
death of Tommy Mccarthy, his Op-
ponet, in last nights fight. rive other
men, seconds and attendants of the
two pugilists, are booked on the sans
charge.
4 Pueiism Given Black Eye.
! San Francisco, April 30.-Sportine
circles are greatly disturbed over the
fatality. Johnson has Cancelled his en-
gagement to appear in a public eXhi
bition tonight. Chief of Police Martin
said: The game undoubtedly will be
given black eye in this city for some
time. AS fas as I know, no officia
action will follow, unless I am salts
fed that the regulations covering the
contest were violated. To me it seems
just one of those unfortunate acci
dents that sometimes mar the pugilis
tic game, as well as the game of foo
ball"

Ps,roness Of Music.

The origin OF music is lost 10 an
tiquity. Among civilized people IL Is
probably to be traced to the ancient
Egyptian priests. who employed this
ART In their religious rites and cere'
monies. From the Egyptians the
Greeks and the Romans derived their
knowledge OF music. The ancient be
Drews probably took With them into
Palestine some Of the songs they had
learned In Egypt The hymns used In
the temple formed the basis OF the
melodies OF the early Christian church.
and from these hymns was formulated
the first authoritative musical system.
st. Cecilia Is termed the pauoness OF
music.-Exchange

The origin OF the people known as
gypsies remains largely mystery.
Egypt, India. Persia and Arabia have
In turn been pointed out as their origi-
nal country. but there Is little den-
mite knowledge on the subject The
weight OF evidence Is In favor Of their
having originated in india. They nrst

from the Danube region spread all

way of the homesteader on the
Government Reclamation pro-
iects. The government is now
showing a willingness to make

those who have taken up home

issue will hasten the completion
of the government projects now
under way and the bill granting
leave of absence to settlers on
unfinished government projects
will afford some relief. This bill
was signed and became law the
last day of Congress. Asenacted
