 The city of Bordeaux, made famous by it's purity of wine, Is a most in teresting city.

 Arsenic Preserves Bodies
 The soil contained such quantities of arsenic and lime that the bodies were perfectly preserved and were later removed to this dungeon for the inspection of those who might have in mind a similar thought.
 Another interesting feature of the American occupation at this city is the American police force which has taken over the policing of the entire city from the French municipal gov ernment. A battalion of former po- lice officers made up the personnel of this unit and they were working very harmOniously with the French and gave far more efficient policing of the city than the French officers did

DEMPSEY HAS FORTUNE IN STORE F ]
 HE CAN BEAT WILLARD NEXT FRIDAY.
Coming Match In Toledo Dwarfs All Previous Champion Battles In Realm of Finance; Gate To Pass The
 Million Dollar Mark; $lOOO 900 For Willard

| TOLEDO, June 28.-Jess Willard,
 the Kansas giant. will defend his title of worlds heavyweight fistic cham pion against the challenger Jack Dempsey of Utah, here next Friday afternoon. Both Willard and Demp- sey have been earnestly training in
 this vicinity for several weeks past. Neither ona has left anything untried or undone in order to get himself into the best possible condition for the encounter, the outcome of which will | mean so much for the victor. By win ming from Jack Johnson at Havana, Cuba. four years ago, Willard was placed in a position to begin building up an immense fortune and should Dempsey capture the title there is no telling how much wealth he may ac- cumulate in these days of high fin ance, when sport promoters talk of the "sky" as the limit for big events.
 "Gate" to Pass Million Mark
 Aside from the actual purse money of S127,50 signed for by the two pug lists, $100,000 of which is guaranteed to Willard, win, lose or draw, the en- ormous amount of cash which will be handled in connection with the com- ing bout, dwarfs all previous ring con- tests into financial oblivion. The gate" from the sale of tickets and concessions, is expected to pass the one million dollar mark, which would make the receipts of previous fistic carnivals look very small in compari- son.
 Tex Rickard, the daring promoter whc is bringing the two big men to- gether in this bout, generally does things on a large scale. He secured the Johnson-Jeffries fight for a guar antee of $100,000 and at Reno, his re- ceipts amounted to S270,O0 Of course the promoter was at an enormous outlay in bringing that contest to an issue, having been forced almost at a moments notice, to move from Cali fornia to another state, in order to secure a battle ground. Richards outlay for the coming battle including guaranteed purse, cost of arena con- struction, advertising and other ex- penses will amount to a vast sum. The casual observer might think that tho promoter will still have big mar gin of profit out of the charges for admission. At first glance this seems reasonable but. Rickard is going to pay the regular war tax of 10 per cent on all tickets purchased and has guar anteed the local authorities a percent age also. The United States govern ment, however, will have big claim for income tax so that when every thing is deducted from the gate" Richards margin of profit probably will fall far short of the results he attained in some of his previous ven- lures.

Co-DEFENDANT TESTIFIES
IN RANGER WILL CASE

New York, March 3-Richard H G.
Cunningham, a co-defendant with Miss
Edith Ranger, charged with entering
for probate an alleged spurious will of
her brother, the late Henry Ward
Ranger, landscape artist, today testi-
fed to his efforts to withdraw" the
alleged fake will and other papers con-
nected with the case.
The alleged spurious will, which be-
qUeathed the bulk of Mr.. Ranger
$4,000 estate to his sister, is ante
dated by another document, which is
claimed to be the true will, and which
bequeathed the entire estate to the
National Academy of Design.
Cunningham testified he and
Charles n. Wexler, a Stamford, Conn,
attorney, tried in January, 1918, to get
back alleged false afidavits and an
alleged false copy of will of Henry
Ward Ranger which had been given
to Carl W. Meyer of Brooklyn, another
co-defendant in the case.
Meyer declined to return them and
insisted that they be used, Cunning
ham added, asserting that 'Wexler has
this and I filed the papers in good
got to stand by this, for he got me into
faith"
Later, Cunningham testified, con-
ference was held between Wexler
Meyer and himself, at which Wexle1
accused Meyer of having broken ar
agreement with him to use the papers
only as a bluff to frighten Charles
Phelps, executor Of the Henry Ware
Ranger will, into giving Miss Ranger
a share in the estate.

MONTY RANKIN BOUT
is HELD IN ABEYANcE

Last night the principals of the pro-
posed Monty Rankin bout, met at the
Moose home to complete the arrange
ments for the aforesaid match. Both
PARTIES seemed a little uncertain as to
just what they wanted or were will
iEg to offer if the bout was staged.
Ilastedt of the Moose stated his prop
osition to Monty and Monty turned it
down fat, asking Haistedt if he
thought he looked green. Hastedt on
the other hand said that Monty was
locking for all coin and call him the
Jess Willard of Norwich. The gentle
men in question were able TO come
TO any definite agreement at the Moose
Home and the meeting adjourned to
The Bulletin Office where both men
renewed their discussions. Hastedt
put his proposition up to Monty again
but Monty sa@ he wanted a euaran-
tee and that he wanted to see the long
green. l don't intend to go down to
the Moose smoker he said, and make
Il boob of myself for the benefit of the
Moose home. Make it worth while and
put up the money. Monty seemed
willing to cover to the extent of his
resources on the spot and said he
would raise that amount to Hastedt's
pleasure within two days. Hastedt
was unable to do this at the time and
so the arrangements hang in abey-
ance for the time being.
