ODD EXPERIENCES oF
 BOXER IN WAR ZONE
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIspA~cH1

LONDON, Feb. 7.-Private Harry Jones. the well known Cardiff boxer, has returned home to recuperate from Mouse, where he underwent many ad- ventures as a member of the South Wales Border regiment.
 After passing unhurt through the re- treat from Mons, in which his battalion was badly cut up, Joness jaw, broken last spring in his ring contest with Dai Roberts, was rebroken by the recoil of his rifle. This laid him up for few weeks. although he lost no time getting back to the front. One of the incidents of the retreat was this Jones was holding an officers horse when shell carried away the animals hindQuarters, leaving the head and forelegs in his possession.
 T knew after that I wasn't to he killed, said the boxer
 His most surprising adventure was his escape from German captOrs
 While fighting on the Mouse, Jones got lost and fell into the hands of five Germans. It chanced that all the five had lived in London and spoke English well. and one had an English wife and seven children in England. Jones' ability to make himself entertaining at least procured him good treatment. The captors kept close watch on him until late that night but grew drowsy just as thick fog came on. which enabled Jones to make a dash after he had wriggled away few yards. Running into the French lines. Jones there chanced upon Tiger Smith, a famous boxer in his day who defeated Gunner Moir for the championship of England Hearing from the French that two German spies had been seen in a wood nearby, the two veterans of the prize ring started out after them. They bagged the two spies and brought them to camp.
 Jones was later wounded in the knee by a rifle ball, and invalided to Eng | land. He intends to return to the front l as soon as cured.
 Fighting blood runs in Jones' veins, | for he met in the trenches along the 1 Mouse his two brothers for the first | time since the South African war. One /, of the brothers is the champion middle | weight boxer of the British army and
 navV. a much coveted honor in the box ing world.

RIVAL COMPANIES AT
 WAR OVER MORALES
rary Restraining Order Against Competitor in Border City

Now that the Mexican trouble as for the nonce subsided, Nogales has real war on it's haHds. For, with the disap- pearance of opposing factions of the republic on the south rival corporations are engaged in battle for the opportun- ity to make Of the border city one great white way.
 Formal compla int was filed With the corporation commission last week by the International Gas company, recent ly organized for the purpose of fur nlshing light and power to the resi- dents of the line town and vicinity, and Water company The new com
 pany alleges that since it was granted
 a franchise, and received permission to
 transact business in the state, it's com
 petitor has begun work on new power
 plant, and the construction of q new
 system. which will seriously interfere
 with the installation of the lnterna-
 tiOnal company's lines
 The old company, complainant ayers.
 is doing business without authority of
 law and without a certificate from the corporation commission. In addition to it's old plant. which was run by steam the new company alleges, it is now in stalling an oil burning generator, and erecting new distributing system with thirty-fo poles, which, with those already lining the streets of the border metropolis constitute serious hindrance to the entrance of the new company into the field. The Interna = tional Gas company, therefore, has pc titioned the commission for a tempo rary restraining order and that defen- dant be required to answer or satisfy complaint within three days Con- plainant further states that certificate Of convenience and necessity was granted 1t by the corporation commits sion September 12, 1914. and that it is now ready to proceed with the install lation of it's plant and system. The commission late Saturday granted tho restraining order and gave the defen- dant company five days in which to ap- pear and show cause why it should moi be mace permanent.

MOTORCYCL|STS MUST CUT DOWN SPEED
Chief Brawner Issues Order That Or.
 dinance VioIators Be Arrested

Probably because they believed the motorcycle policemen were devoting more attention to the capturing of automobile Speeders than to ordinance Violating mOtorcyclists, riders of the two wheeled go o-devils'' have become quite fragrant in their ignoring of the speed laws of this city. However, an nouncement has been made by Chief of Police Walter F. BraWner that mo- torcyclists will be brought into city police court just as readily as are the automobilists and an order has been issued that the same attention be given speeders on motOrcyclists as is given drivers of cars.
 No less than six or seven motorcy- ciists have been haled into court the past two or three days Policeman Hunt had two or three on the carpet on Friday and each was assessed a fine of ten dollars. Policeman Gulley had Peter Morales, J. M Shink, w. & Beyerles and Fred Buck before Ma gistrate Mcbride on Saturday charged with driving twenty-five miles Or more. an hour and each of these was assessed a fine of ten dollars.
 Yesterday Gulley made a "cavass' of the situation and while he refrain ed from making any arrests of motor cyclists, he issued warnings to more than forty who were dangerously neal the point where he would have beer compelled to make arrests From this time on it will be quite the commof thing to see upon the police docket the name of one or more speeding mo- torcyclist unless there is a sudder cessation of the speeding practice.

 AGAINST OPEN
 SEASON BILL
Assistant Chief of Biologi- cal Survey Protests Ag- ainst Measure that Would Open Season on Antelope and Mountain Sheep

That the proposed game law estab- fishing on open season on antelope and mountain sheep, and lengthening the deer season would result in the exterm- ination of these animals in a short time, and should have the active oppo- sition of every citizen of the state, is the statement of F.. w. Nelson, assist ant chief of the United States biological survey, in letter of protest to Gov. Hunt Nelson, who has spent much time in Arizona, is familiar with game conditions in this state His letter fol- lows:
 United States Department of Agricul- ture, Bureau of Biological Survey.
 Washington, D. C.
 January 30, 1915. Hon. George W. P. Hunt,
 Governor of Arizona,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My dear Governor Hunt:
 l am appalled, to learn that there is a proposal on foot 70 have an open sea - son for mountain sheep and antelope and an extension of the season for deer in Arizona. This effort must come from people who have a commercial inter- est in the present exploitation of the game resources of the state, without any regard for the future. I am great ly disappointed that such an effort gets any backing in Arizona, as I hoped public sentiment had reached a point there where the necessity for game pro- lection was more fully appreciated. T, have an open season, even short one for mountain sheep and antelope Woulr mean the eXtermination of these ami. mals within very short period Tn, antelope are decreasing steadily. evef with the present closed season I an | informed by people who have been or tn antelope ranges that, owing to thei protection, they have become very tam, and unsuspicious. and this of cours means that an open season would re suit in their slaughter and almost il 1 their extermination before they wouf, have opportunity to learn. their dange and become sufficiently shy to in par l protect themselves
 1 am writing you because know hoy | S'NNH NON s'i ' III SdIll6 and feel sure that you will oppose an | such movement. l am aware how an | interference from the federal depart ment is resented in some of the states but If there is any information or oth CT assistance that can be given yo, rom this office in helping protect tn | rapidly decreasing game of Arizona | trust you will feel free to call upon us We are greatly interested in the mat ter of game protection throughout th country. for without the greatest car all our game resources will become matter Of the past within a very fe, | years.
 Many of the states are appreciatin this and are having their game law revised at the present session of tn | legislatures to coincide with the federa migratory bird bill in the matter ( open seasons for shooting mgrator wild fowl l hope Arizona may com into line in this regard. My interest i Arizona game is not only due to m official connection with federal gam preservation, but is the active interes of citizen of the state.
 Sincerely yours,
 F. W. NELSON.

 There will be a lot of plans pre- pared later in the month-such as concern prize money, routs and guarding the course
 Who did Jess Willard ever lick?
 We-e-l-l.
 Apparently, Jess need never have walloped anybody, to hear Mon seur Press Agent tell it. Just come off the farm, spit on his hands and sail in and lick the spots off the fellow who has been moving 'enl down for these four years past
 But, in support of. his idea, the Wellington never licked anybody be- fore he cleaned Napoleon at Water loo, and Geo. Dewey was an untried fighter when he got the decision over the Spaniards at Manila Bay, and then he goes right down the line and talks scandalous about all those famous old pugilists, James J. Cor bett, Bob FitZsimmons Ad. Wolgast Jim Jeffries, and finally this Johnson fellow, his own self
 We reckon that this thing has gone pretty far, and that somebody wants somebody to bet sum of money oi Mister Willard.

The bill referred to in Nelson's lot ter Is not the one prepared by the state game department, and now in the hands of the house committee on fish and game, but is a measure recently drawn up by some Tucson sportsmen. Warden Willard's bill would shorten the game season from sixty to fifteen days, and reduces the bag limit from two males in a season to one. It makes the open season on migratory wild fowl conform to the federal season, closes the season on wild turkey entirely, shortens the quail and white wing sea- sons and reduces the bag limit on these birds considerably

honorable peace-will be the keynote
of the policy to be pursued by this
government in the delicate situation

OF this much those about him felt
certain today from President Wilson's
remarkable speech before 1000 new

delphia last night.
An immense throng cheered wildly
when President Wilson declared:
"There is such a thing as a nation
being so right that it does not need
to convince others by force that it is
right.
This was Pres. Wilson's nearest
reference to the Lusitania disaster in
addressing 1000 naturaHzed citizens
at Philadelphia yesterday.
