eIaekmaIIers Use Bomb.

Ottawa, Aug. 22.-As the re-
suit OF an attempt made early Sun
day morning by members of the
BLACK Hand" society to take the
life of Michael Baronia of La Sale,
his fruit store was partially wreck
ed and the windows of the buildings
in the entire block were broken by
the explosion of a bomb. Baronia
received a letter written from Chi
cago Aug. condemning him to
death If he did not pay the sum Of
$4,000 within Is days. This letter
was not signed, neither did it state
where to leave the money. Baronia
and his family, who were asleep in
the rear Of the building when the ex-
plosion occurred, were not injured.
An investigation revealed that sec
ond bomb had been placed near the
building, but had failed to go OF.
The unexpected bomb consisted Of
an old oil can filed with sawdust,
powder and nitro-glycerine. Baronia
claims he has no enemies and the
police have no clews.

FIGHT GAME ON

Local Fighters Can Get Goes
With Boxers in Manila
These Days.

The boxing game is looking up IN
Manila and other ports of the Orient,
according to the latest exchanges, and
this will be good news to several Ho-
nolulu and Coast men who are plan
ming to be in the Far East within q
few months.
Jack Grace, who left here several
weeks ago with the Hyland- Nelson
fight pictures, intended to break into
the game for a while in the Far East,
and there are others in the local field
who plan to go in that direction.
Eddie TAFT, who is running NOV
ing-picture show in Manila and has
the agency for number of films, is a
good promoter of the game and is well
known in Honolulu.

knocked him out, but he let him stay
to please the crowd.
In the tenth round, Papke landed Il
clean swing just below the heart,
inches above the belt. This was the
much discussed blow that disqualified
him. Snowy Baker, the referee, inn
mediately declared it a foul, but the
decision was ridiculous"
Macrate says that Smith is nothing
like a champion. He can not box, is
Wild loose fighter and doesn't class
with the American. He says that
Papke's cleverness enabled him to
avoid most of the wild swings that
looked as if Smith had the edge on
the American in aggressivcness.
When Macrate gets to the mainland
with his story, there will be something
stirred up in the sporting columns, for
he will handle some of it for the Hearst
newspaper syndicate, and he has a lot
of photographs to show the true con-
dtions.
