White Rioters Beat Blacks

Toward daylight the less aggres
sive having been driven to cover, worn
out with fighting or arrested, number
of white rioters invaded the downtown
quarters, beat negroes found on the
streets and dragged covering porters
from all night restaurants and hotels
to the streets, flogging them unmerci-
fully.
Among those injured during the
night were three members of the Sew
enth regiment who were beset by ne
groes while on the way to their ar
mory. Corporal W. 4. Riggs was shot
in the back; Charles T. Williams was
shot in the side and j. N. Rinkus was
slashed with a raor. Maj. Fred Haynes
was found probably fatally beaten, pre-
sumably by negroes An automobile
containing AdjutantGeneral Dickson
was fired on, but without injury to the
occupants.
An exodus of negroes to the North
and West Sides began as the fighting
was at its height. Some $4,000 negroes
already live in those parts OF the city,
and the police took precautions to stop
any resentment shown by white men
at the added population of blacks. This
hegira was stopped at daybreak by the
street car strike.
A few whites were penned in their
homes by negroes and had to telephone
for police aid to escape. Members OF
one family managed to elude negroes
by backing their own faces and depart
ing in disguise.

Danny Lorraine is surely coming
along in fine style. Already he is
considered by most of the boxing
followers as one of the best, if not
the best lightweight in the State.
If Lorraine who is now making his
headquarters in Bath, will train
faithfully he will make some of the
fast boys in the game step some.
Various outfits in the Augusta
Twilight League are putting in some
hard practice in preparation for the
opening of the league which takes
place a week from today. The first
clash is to be staged between Cros-
setts and the Clerks and Business
Men. Both of these aggregations
have some fast men in their lineups
so the opening contest should be a
hummer and we'll attended.

it bids fair to give the fans some

play one Of the Forest City's outfits.
Weather permitting. the first Of Sc
ries of freshman VS.. sophomore base
ball games between the students at

noon. The original plan was to have
one game only. But it was later decided
to have a series of games. 1t is plan
ned to continue interclass games so
that baseball material will be out until
school closes. The sophomores have
two members Of the regular school team

freshmen may uncover some dark

THOUSANDS CROWD
TRAINING QUARTERSoF
CHALLENGER DEMPSEY

Tolido. O.. May 25-Thousands
thronged Jack Dempsey's training
camp today and went away disap-
pointed because the challenger for
the heavyweight championship failed
to do any boxing. Dempsey was
eager enough to rip into his sparrins
partners, but trainer Jimmy De
Forest forbade it because the newly
constructed ring has not been
padded. The ring will be in shape
to permit boxing tomorrow.
Women and children Of the Bay
Shore district are showing as much
interest in Dempsey's work as the
men. The club house grounds was
jammed with them and they watched
every move the challenger made.
Dempsey attempted to satisfy them
with a couple Of rounds Of shadow
boxing after he had beep.refused per-
mission to put on the gloves.
Newspaper correspondents in the
Dempsey camp played a game CT
baseball with Dempsey and his
trainers and got away with the big
end Of the 9 to 8 score. Dempsey
was taken out OF the game in the
third inning because it was feared
he might damage an ankle while
cavorting over the deeply rutted
field. Bill Tate. the giant negro
sparring patrner. nearly broke up the
game when he knocked a home run
with two men on bases. Jack
Kearns, Dempsey's manager, was
the pitcher for the camp team.
