 The presence of so many game bird fanciers in this city will undoubtedly lead to the organization of a State game association, to affiliate with the National Game Association. Prob ably the largest display of game birds ever gathered together in one place will be seen at the local show. En- tries are coming from far and near, some of them from 300 miles away. Poultry-men who thought they knew all the breeds and varieties were as- founded to learn there were so many different kinds of games, and these racy looking birds should appeal to the general public.

The Angel City fans were treated to a fine exhi- bition of boxing, and at the end of the scheduled twenty rounds the referee handed down a draw decision. That other match was made, the fight be- ing held in Los Angeles on May 8, 1e07- Tommy was una blei to put over knockout punch, but this time he clearly outclassed the Philadelphian. and was given the decision. Having cinched his title, Burns began his tour of the world which cuInainated so dis astrously in Australia After dispos- ing of Bill SCuires in San Francisco, the Canadian went to London and knocked out Gunner Moir and Jack Palmer, sent Jem Roche to sleep in Ireland and knocked out Jewey Smith and Bill Squires in France. Then he went to Australia and was defeated by Jack Johnson. Burns is now res- ident of Calgary, Alberta, where he owns a hourishing clothing store, con- ducts & boxing arena, and has ac- quired much real estate.

JUDGE BANS MoTBER-N-LAw. Tells Wife Not to Keep a 'Provok-
 ing'' Influence ir Her Home

Columbus. Ohio, Nov. 27-Official 1 recognition of the popular conception of sttoo much mother-in-la.w'' was given in Domestic Relations Court here yesterday when Probate Judge Samuel L. Black ordered Mrs. Elmer Wilson to clean house of all per sons except herself, her children and her husband.
 Recently MT. Wilson returned home and so thoroughly .tcleaned house that his family had to take refuge in the fields When the case was called yesterday, Wilson's employer testified that Wilson was aggravated by a case of "too much mother-in- law.' The court held that the wife could not expect much from her hus- band if she kept provoking influ- ence'' at home.
