A BIG Topeka BOUT.
Jack johnson and Canadian Champion
Will Meet Thursday Night.

The best local boxing match of the
season will be held Thursday evening
under the auspices of the Midwest
Athletic club when Topeka Jack
johnson will meet Osker Martinez
over the ten round route.
Martinez is the heavyweight cham
pion of the Dominion of Canada and
is one of the best heavyweights in the
country. He is now in Topeka and is
training at the Midwest club each at
ternoon. He weighs $50 pounds and
is very active and aggressive
fighter.
johnson and the Canadian met in
Kansas City a few weeks ago and
fought to a draw. AS is well known.
johnson is one of the best fighters
Kansas ever produced and his work in
training Sailor Carroll for tonight's
st. Joe bout has kept him in the best
possible condition. Both johnson and
the northern pug are anxious for a
decision over each other and this in
sured a good exhibition when they
meet Thursday.
The match will be held in the Met
ropolitan hail. but only members of
the Midwest club will be admitted.
johnson will return from st. Joe to-
night after the Carroll-Morris fight.

MAY CALL THE COLONEL
Members OF House Naval Committee
Want to Hear From r. II.

Washington, Dec. Is. Colonel
Roosevelt doomed up today as a pos
sible witness before the house naval
committee in it's discussion of the pre-
paredness of national defenses. At to-
days session Representative Hobson
pressed Chairman Padgett to call the
former president and after some dis
cussion the question was left to be de-
cided in an executive session of the
committee. "Why invite him." de-
manded Representative Butler.
Hes been assistant secretary of
the navy and president, commander
inc. .ef. and has been in a position to
know the facts about national de-
fense," returned Mr.. Hobson, who
protested that his suggestion was be-
ing treated "cavalierly."
Representative Buchanan remarked
that due to the fact that Mr.. Roose-
welt seldom expresses himself through
the newspapers and magazines it
might be well to get hold of him and
drag something out of him on the sub
ject.' With that the committee
turned to the examination of Com
mander Sterling, who testified there
were 8 submarines in the Atlantic
fleet.
Sterling said the flotilla should have
better tender facilities and more per-
manency in the assignments of off,
GERS attached to submarines. 1t took
six months training to learn to take
out a submarine and years to under
stand engine and other troubles, he
said.
Are we as well advanced as other
nations in submarines he was
asked. 81 don't think we are" he re-
piled. IF we believe the accounts
from abroad, the Germans, English
and French have 500 and 1,OOO-ton
submarines in commission

ASKS $4,000 DAMAGES
Oklahoma Man Brings Bridge Suit
Against Usage County.

A suit for $4,000 damages for in
juries which have. rendered him a
physical cripple and a mental defec-
tive has just been filed in the United
States district court against Usage
county by James p. Alley, a resident of
Payne county, Oklahoma. James p.
Alley is represented in the suit by
Abijah J. Alley, who was appointed
the other mans guardian in Novem-
Der, 1914, a year after the accident
occurred.
Alleys petition represents that his
injuries resulted from a fail from
high approach to a bridge over Long
creek, half a mile from the town of
Melvern. on Aug. IS. 1913. On that
day James p. Alley was driving a
team Of mules along the road which
crosses the bridge At the approach
the animals became frightened and
backed the wagon off the unprotect-
ed embankment SO that Alley fell a
distance of twenty feet or more and
sustained injuries to his head from
which he probably will never recover.
1t is represented that the bridge
approach was not walled in a manner
required for ordinary safety. the stone
work which supported the earthen fill
being only as high as the rOadbed.

TO DANCE IT OUT
Chicago Will Provide Munich

City Dance Halls to Keep Revel-
lers From Dives.

Chicago. Dec 15.-Five municipal
dances as a sane celebration of New
Years eve and as a counter attraction
to the usual revel in Chicago's cafes
will be held this year, it was an
nounced today.
Il believe that the New Years eve
municipal dance will keep great num-
bers of young women away from the
evil influence of the usual celebra-
tiOn," said Mrs. l.. z. Meder, superin-
tendent of the department of public
welfare. I'VE will have special at
fractions, including vaudeville, dane
ing by professionals and other enter
tainment, to keep girls and young men
away from the downtown revel''
Mayor Harrison Monday announced
that cafes must close their doors at
a. m. on New Years Eve. but that pa
irons could remain as long as they de-
sired. No liquor may be sold after that
hour, but any amount may be pur-
chased before l o'clock for future con-
sumption.
