BOXING GAME NEEDS
MORE COMMISSIONS

DOING commissions. like all other
ID commissions. are OF benefit 70 the
public at large when the right men
are in charge. This fact was demon
strated on two occasions recently. IN
New Jersey. where the new boxing
law recently went into effect, there
had been considerable trouble al the
open air arenas in handling the
crowds.
At the Fred F'ulton-Jaclk Dempsey
contest the crowd in the bleachers
broke through and occupied reserved
seats in the higher priced sections
the perk police apparently paying
Attla attention to the rush. There
AEes 4 big howl from the fans, and at
the les Lewis-Benny Leonard Iignt n
Jersey the same thing happened again.
This time chairman John Smith OF the
boxing commission entered the ring
and announced TO the spectators an1
promoters alike that there would be
no contest until every man with re-
served seat coupon had been taken
care OF and seated
but Mr.. smith never VFaTered- He
won out and the disturbers were
obliged to 20 back where they
belonged. The chances are the
promoters will guard against any
repetition Of that kind next time.
In Milwaukee, when the influenza
sweep started. the boxing game was
the first TO be hit. a show was
billed for Friday night. but an order
was sent out Tuesday 70 call of the
show. but no such order had been
given any other amusement place II

health commissioner understood con-
ditiOns he readily agreed with chair
man Lginger and everything was
worked out nicely II goes 10 show,
however. that the boxing game needs

RYAN-BONNER BATTLE.
1t was just 20 years ago today. Oct
q, 1898, that Tommy Ryan defeated
Jack Bonner in 20 rounds at Coney
Island. Bonner had claimed the mid
dleweight title after the retirement
Of Bob Fitzsimmons. and had defeated
Dan CreedOn and number of other
good fighters in America and Eng
land. Kid Mccoy, the great Hoosier
middleweight, had gone after the
heaYies, and the Ryan-Bonner fight
was advertised as for the middle
weight championship title.
Bonner was Philadelphian. He had
an advantage OF seven pounds in
weight over his opponent. and was a
rushing. tearing fighter. In the COney
Island battle OF 20 years ago he did
his best, which was pretty good, but
Ryan showed superiority from the
very first round and right through
the entire contest, although he
was unable to put over a knockout.
Bonner stood some mighty severe
punishment during the battle. and
when it was over he had a broken
nose and was almost all in.

NO SEvEN-CENT FARES

A few weks ago the Jackson Light and Traction Company announced that it would increase gas rates 25 per cent and electricity rates B per cent. On that they were enjoined by the city, and after a conference between attorneys representing both sides it was agreed that the company might go ahead and make the increased charges, but should give bond to indemnify tho patron. Now the company announces that it has in- structed It's street car conductors to col lect 7-cent fares, and that school chil- dren shall get but 9 tickets for a dol liar. On this the city commissioners adopted an ordinance fixing the maxi mum fare at cents and requiring 8 tickets for $1 to school children The ordinance imposes fine Of $100 and 90 days on all conductors who collect more than the ordinance provides for, and the public is awaiting the outcome of the controversy with great interest.
