Supreme Court Sets Aside Or
der Granting Rehearing.
.REVERSES RECENT DECISION
Decision Based on Point That Alb.
sence of Judge Henshaw from State
When Rehearing Was Granted
Renders 1t Invalid.

San Francisco, March IA surprise
was sprung by the state supreme court
when it handed down a decision set
ting aside its recent order granting a
rehearing in the case Of Abe Ruef.
This is q fiat reversal OF the previ-
GUS decision and it means that Ruef
must Immediately begin serving his
fourteen years sentence in San Quen-
tin unless he or his attorneys discov-
er some legal technically to block the
courts action.
The decision, which is very long,
recites that the finding of the appel
late court in Ruef's case is final. The
supreme court saves it's face" by
basing this decision on the point that
the absence of Judge Henshaw from
the state when the rehearing was
granted rendered that decision in
valid. The real truth is that the
court reversed its decision which was
unanimously condemned as narrow
and ~pettifogging and it took advan-
tage of the attorney generals attack
on the legality of the decision to rem
der another which is directly opposite
to the first,
Ruef is at liberty on $4,000 bail,
which was fixed by Judge Cabaniss

fenced and was in Jail.
Ruef will be ordered into custody
as soon as a certified order of the su-
preme court is sent to the court of ap-

John L. Sullivan Gives
Views On Whisky Habit.

What is the real knockout punch?
John L. Sullivan, the once mighty
gladiator of the prize ring, for ten
years champion of the world, and
the man who discovered the knock
out punch with the gloved hand, is
in the city sparring with his one-time
opponent, Jake Kilrain, and declares
that the real knockout punch isn't
given with the fist.
Sullivan has been prominent
figure in American public life for
years, or since he first became ia
nous the world over. That was in
1882, when he whipped Paddy Ryan,
of Troy N. Y, for the championship
of America. Since 1892, the year
he relinquished the title, Sullivan
has spent almost his entire time in
travel. Naturally bright, he has
been a student of human nature all
his life, has read extensively and is
in a position to see things with I'M
biased, thoughtful eyes. Here is his
own story:
BY JOHN L. SULLIVAN.
| know lot about knockout
punches" | discovered one, deliver
ed few, and have been punched a
bunch of them myself. So when
ANYBODY talks about punches take
an interest in the conversation.
When they begin to talk about
punches | join in the talk.
We hear a lot talk nowadays
about the man with the punch
the fellow that puts it over every
body elSe-the business man that
has the WaIlop on his neighbors-
the fighter that carries sleep-pro-
ducers in both hands. You know
all about that, but you don't know,
maybe, that the real knockout punch
isn't carried in any fist, and never
drops you so that you can rise up
after the referee counts ten and
collect your senses and your share
of the great receipts. The real
knockout punches in this life are
the ones you never see, but only feel.
For some fellows the punch is slip
ped to them in glass of booze, and
it has the right to the solar pleXus
beat a mile for effect.
REAL KNOCKOUT NOT IN FIST
Old Easy Life gets in under an
other lads guard and puts him down
and out before he knows it's coming.
No right swing ever took away
senses so suddenly as a little touch
of Easy Life, and you can get a lot
to testify to that.
Take it from me-the real knock
out punches are the ones you want
to learn. And then you want to
learn how to guard against them.
When a fellow starts in to be a
fighter the first thing he learns is
how to hold his hands; not to deliv-
er a blow, but to guard against a
blow. It's a great thing to have the
punch. It's just as great and as
necessary to know the knockout and
recognize the Knockout punch when
you see it coming as it is to know
you've got the punch in your own
makeup.
There's one knockout punch that
you won't have and trouble recog-
nizing, although it comes in a good
many different ways and tries to
sneak in over your guard, it's booze
drink; strong drink of all kinds.
It's no use to try to meet it. It's
one of the real knockout punches of
of lie. Don't let it land.

ment openly, but am ashamed to
do so. But | am going to be

in this acknowledgment of a fitful
past, | want to put myself on an
equal footing with some of the men
who may heed my talk and certainly
need something of the kind

the man with the punch. No man
carries a swing or hook or a cross
or an uppercut that can make an

was just as easy as any of the rest
of them. You have heard before, I
guess, that no man can beat the
booze game. It's a fact, established
as early as we're the hills from
which the booze is supposed to
come.
Here's where you see the man
who can dodge the punch getting in
his slick work. Here's where he is
bigger fellow than the man with the
punch or the man who thinks he
has it. When you start battling
with Old Alcohol you are up against
the real punch The only way to
beat it is to have will enough of
your own to keep out of range of
that punch. Let it 60 over your
head, by your ear, or under your
guard arm, anywhere but down
your throat
DRINKING DISEASE WITH SOME MEN
am of the opinion that liquor
drinking is a disease with some men.
Will power can cure it in some
cases, but such cases are mighty
rare. That's why say that the
fellow who can dodge the booze
punch is the man with some class.
Him for me, all the time. A lot of
people have asked me why didn't
quit the game before it nearly ruined
me. To them | have answered that
every man must learn his lesson
we'll. Some learn it quickly, others
must take lot of time. l was slow
and needed time. But | saw my
mistake before made up my mind
that the game was unbeatable. Then
I quit and quit cold. 1t cost me a
fortune, then another and then some
more. That's how | learned the les
son. You see, if had been forced
to keep on digging ditch or some
thing like that, most of my younger
days, would have had a cheaper
lesson. 1t cost me lot simply because
| had the coin.
Perhaps in my time, and | do
not mean to say this bOastfully, |
have turned more young men into
straighter path than any other
man outside of those occupying
temperance lecture platforms.
You may ask me how l did it.
Simply by being forceful I used
the argument that if a champion
of the world and the man who
really discovered the original knock
out punch couldn't negotiate a |
victory over King Korn-juice, what
chance had anybody else. Pretty |
strong talk that, but absolutely |
right.

And in some cases use force to
make a man learn his lesson.
