Workman Is Completely Dis
rObed by Whirling Shaft.
Held to Wall While Clothes
Were Torn Off.

lola, Kan, Dec. 11.-Clad in one
shoe, the torn remnant of one leg
of his suit of underwear and his spec
tacles. j. F. Moore, for many years
employed at the lola Portland, stood
beside an engine in Dept. D this morn
ing and breathed words of thankful
ness. A minute before he had been
completely clad in his working clothes.
Some portion of his garments caught
on the rapidly whirling shaft and as
he felt the pull he braced himself
against wall which was luckily at
hand and held fast while the machin-
cry disrobed him. The job was COM
plete, outer and neither garments, even
to one of his shoes, being wound about
the shaft. Moore let out a yell when
he found himself caught and a COM
panfon on the opposite side of the ma
chine ran around to him. In that
brief period the disrobing had been
accomplished. Mr.. Moore sustained
no hurts save where a tightening gar
ment burned his flesh,

came up with rush in the third, but
McCarty stopped him with a singer
that drew blood from the fireman's nose
and forced him to stall.
Fourth Was Even.
Flynn evened it up in the fourth
rushing McCarty repeatedly and hook
ing him with an uppercut that rocked
the Missourian's head. The fifth was
a hammer-and-tongs affair, ending
with a fierce mixup in the center of the
ring. In the sixth Flynn staggered Nc
Carly with left swing that sent him
against the ropes.
The seventh, bitterly contested
throughout, ended with honors even.
Both men showed signs of weakness
when they went to their corners and
the succeeding round was tame. In the
tenth McCarty landed a hard right to
the jaw, putting the veteran down for
the count of nine Flynn arose groggy
and hung on. Following UP this adj
vantage, the Missourian dropped Flynn
for a second and third time, but the
fireman made a remarkable rally and
lasted out the round
McCarty tried hard to end it in the
tenth but Flynn showed strong re
cupera tive powers and held his heavier
opponent fairly even. Badly battered
and rushing blindly, Flynn went
the eleventh, rocked repeatedly
by the blows that McCarty landed all
most at will. It was the same in the
twelfth, the fireman's stamina arousing
the wonder of the crowd.
Flynn kept boring in in the thirteenth,
shaking his head under the fusinade of
blows. with puffed and bleeding face.
The next two rounds went the same
way, the Missourian having his antago-
mist at his mercy, but lacking the driv-
ing power to stop him.
Flynn seemed almost helpless when in
the outset of the sixteenth he was sent
down for the count of nine and when,
a moment later, a smash to the jaw
dropped him for the second time, Ref
cree Eyton stopped the fight and de-
clared McCarty the winner.

WOOD IS DEFEATED A NARROW ESCAPE
Hoffman Wins Straight Falls
From Pauline Boy.
Preliminaries to the Match
Were Interesting.

Jack Wood, of Pauline, cannot main
tain the same gait as a wrestler that
he does as a pugilist.- His shoulders
were pinned to the mat in straight
falls by Louis Hoffman at the Sixth
street moving picture theater last
night. The first fall was gained in
three minutes and 10 seconds and the
second in nine minutes and 10 seconds.
The evenings entertainment was
given by two local men and not by
the Topeka Athletic association as was
believed by many. Kid Cain was sign
ed to go on with Wood but the pro-
moters did not think he was in con-
dition and substituted Hoffman. Cain
is recovering from a broken arm.
Hoffman secured the first fall with a
neck hold and scissor lock. He won
the second with a scissor lock and half
Nelson. Both wrestlers were handicap
ped on account of the small mat. The
building would not permit a larger one
to be arranged. Spike Sullivan, who
is matched to meet Wood in a ten
round sparring match on the night of
December 90, acted as referee.
Hoffman's conduct on the mat show
ed that he has considerable ability.
He was slightly heavier than the Pau
line boy and was master of the situa
ticn on account of excessive strength.
Hoffman challenges any man in the
world at 158 pounds.
A series of entertaining features
preceded the contest between these
two men. Moving pictures, a pie eat
ing contest and a battle royal were
among the list.
Swede Anderson and a boy named
Carson staged a preliminary wrestling
bout. Anderson is local boy He
won the first fall in three minutes but
could not maintain the fast pace. Car
son won the next two. Anderson show
ed lack of experience but was
willing worker and might develop into
an excellent man with more experience.

REMEMBERS HIS FRIENDS.
| Governor Wilson Sends His Photos to
Kansas AdherentS

Independence, Kan, Dec. lit
was some time after Woodrow Wilson
was nominated for president at the
Baltimore convention that at his home
in Princeton, N. J., he received a let
ter from Independence.
Although the president-elect IS in
the Rermudas recuperating from the
strain of the campaign, he evidently
has not forgotten that particular let
ter. In fact, it is positive he has not.
The expressman called recently at
the Booth hotel with two packages.
They were quite large in size, one adj
dresses to Miss Reed and the other
to Mr.. Andrews, writer's of the letter.
The charges were prepaid.
When the packages were opened up
each found therein a very fine photo
of President ELECT Wilson.
They were not the ordinary kind of

sive make, taken by Princeton pho

Hugo B. Koch, who is this season
starring in 1.-The City" under the man
agement of the United Play Company,
which plays at the Grand today and to-
night, says that when he was eighteen
years old and living in st. Louis he
used to take part in a great many anna
teur theatricals. One night he was cast
for role in a piece that was being
produced for the benefit of a local char
ity.

night" said Mr.. Koch. recalling the
event, "and when it was all over and

Escapes From City BastiIe While Court
Was in Session.

Leavenworth, Kan, Dec. 11.-Yes-
terday morning while police court was
in session Henry Williams, held for
robbery and larceny, made his escape
from the city jail. AS soon as the
escape was noted all of the available
policemen were sent out to look for
him. He was found about 10 o'clock
in the waiting room at the Santa Fe
depot by officer Cougar. He made
no resistance and was taken back to
Jail. When asked how ne made his
escape, Williams said that he "just

1t is believed that Williams is the
man who committed a number of
thefts in Leavenworth recently. It is

WOULD PERMIT BOXING.
Lieut. Governor of Illinois VIII Work
for Such a Bill.

Chicago, Dec. 11.-Barratt O'Hara,
lieutenant governor elect is not only
a student in boxing, but he intends to
make good one of the campaign
pledges by working for a bill in the
legislature permitting the sport in IL
linois. Mr.. O'Hara with the conclu-
sion of his daily workout at a To-
cal gymnasium, declared that he be-
lieved he had sufficient influence with
legislators in the lower end of the
state to get a bill passed legalizing
boxing.
The coming lieutenant governor said
he favored limiting bouts to six
rounds and keeping them under state
supervision.
