Barney Adair May Lose
 Leg And Quit As Result
 Of Gunman'S COWardiCe

Iumed gunmen, guerilIas and rats. Last Sunday morning -Adair searched Harlem for the two, but could not IO- cate them. Finally Sunda-- night he was ''tipped' off where they might be found. He went to the spot and sure enough, there were the men he was looking for
 Adair attempted to talk to one, but & guilty conscience bothered the two and one of them made a pass at Barney. The latter tried to return the blow, but as he was about to do so the other fired at him, the bullet lodging in his leg. Barney dropped but arose quickly and chased the two. One disappeared, but he finally caught the one who. he says, shot him. A scuffIe followed and although weak from the loss of blood, Barney let go of a mighty left and landed it squarely on the rats jaw, kn0clziug him out. A police officer came along ana took him in charge. Barney was rushed to the hospital.
 Adair fought his first battle two years aao. His father had fought in the ring on the other side-in Ire land. But he wanted Barney to he a blacksmith. However, Adair was l chip Of the old block and spent his idle moments in a neighborhood gym. There he saw the boys go through their stunts. For months he watched them, then finally he conGded in his father that he thought he could do as well as any of them.
 The old gentleman was surprised, but did not interfere. So one night the matchmaker of the old Olympic in New York happened to be in the neighborhood and Barney asked him for a chance.

AYRAULT PROVES
 FINE POOL SHOT
Norwalk Crack Needed N Municipalities Loses
 First Block.

Iris not an unusual thing for 8 person to make @ mistake. And how well Emil F3rkes, the Bridgeport pool star, knows this today. This is in deed a gloomy day for Emil for his defeat at the hands of Bill "Smil- ing" Ayrault of South Norwalk in the first block of a 30O-point inter-clg match at the Union billiard parIors came as a big disappointment to his local followers. The final score was 150 to 53.
 For some reason not satisfactorily explained so far Erkes allowed the NorwaIk Iuminary 30 points. The victor last night. ran off 135 points with comparative ease and if he keeps the form in which he played in the first block victory for the local man is an impossibility, for Ayrault i1 Q. slow. but careful and studious player. He literally played rings around the Bridgeporter, who seem ed timid and cratic all night.

A large number of stockmen and
local commission men have ex-
pressed an intention to join the
annual visit to the Nebraska Uni
versity State Farm exposition of
live stock to be held November Is.
In view of the fact that live stock
prices will no longer be on war
basis. and the cost of feeding will
be vital factor in the stock busi-
ness, Prof. Gramlich of the depart
ment of animal husbandry an
nounces the feeding experiments at
the state farm this year will be of
exceptional interest.
Opportunity will also be given to
the visitors to look over and pass on
the stock to be entered at the In
ternational show this year.
Announcements received at the
local yards say that one of the fea-
lures prepared for their entertain
ment consists of a complimentary
luncheon rendered the visiting
stockmen by the domestic science
department under the direction of
Miss Alice Loomis.
