The ambition of champions to de- feat title holders in heavier divisions has spread to Australia, where Sid Godfrey, featherweight champion of that country, recently fought and knocked out Bob Williams. the light weight cha mpion of New South Wales. When Billy Edwards was a 13S pounder he thought nothing of taking on q 200 pounder and beating him. Walcott, Lavigne and NIcGov- ern also were partial to the big fel- lows, and, F'itzsimmons, who never weighed more than 172. reioiced when his. opponents were ponderous. Therefore, Kilbane in meeting Leon ard. Leonard in boxing Lewis and Britton and Britton in matching him self with O'Dowd did not achieve anything novel

Johnny Dundee and Willie Jackson have been signed up to meet in an eight-round bout at the Armory A. A. of Jersey City on Labor Day night. John Jennings, matchmaker of the club, gave Dundee the terms he de- manded, and as Frank Bagley, man ager of Jackson, had already agreed to the terms he was offered the match was clinched yesterday. Many attempts have been made recently to bring these two fast Iightweights to- gether and the prospects are that the bout will be corker
 Kid Norfolk, the Baltimore coIored heavyweight, has returned 10 his home town, and has been signed to meet John Lester Johnson in a fifteen round bout to decision next week at the home of the Baltimore Inter national League Baseball Club. The contest will be staged by the Ameri- can Athletic Association. In John son the Baltimore battler will be con fronted with a tough opponent, and it will be the first time Norfolk will not enter the ring a favorite. John son, who is six feet tall and weighs a fraction jess than 200 pounds, has defeated Jim Johnson, Joe Jeanette, Sam Langford and Harry Wills. The last named was Johnson's last vic tim.
 The boxing clubs in the State of Arizona are drawing great crowds to their boxing shows. Phoenix and Miami are the principal fight towns. and many ring glad!ators are active in the two towns. Among the most prominent fighters in Phoenix is Ad wolgast. The former champion is scheduled to meet Young France in a ten round bout on Labor Day.

his request to the good people Of
Oconce county not to look down on
him. for his error. Too often this
Is done, but especially when man
publicly makes confession OF wrong,
stating that he has resolved to lead
a new life. there Is no place for any
thing at the hands Of the public but
the extending Of the helping hand.
We hope that he will receive tive

than to help him to make what he
evidently desires to bc--t good, law

CLARK STILL HEADS THE VETS.
Adopt "Wnr of Secession" and Urge
General Use IIcrcaftcr,

Greenwood. July 23.-Major Gen.
W. \. Clark, OF Columbia, was re-
elected commander-in-ch of the
South Carolina Division, United Con-
fedcrate Veterans, at the final session
OF their reunion here to-day. David
Cardwell. OF Columbia, was reelected
adJutant general and chief of staff.
Other officers Of the division were
also reelected.
Sumter was selected as the place
for holding the next reunion.
The gathering Of the heroes OF the
sixties came to formal end tonight
with the annual reunion ball for the
veterans and their friends.
The closing day Of the reunion was
marked by two inspiring addresses
by Col. Daniel S. Henderson, Of
Aiken, and Miss Mildred Rutherford
or Athens, Ga. historian general Of
the United Daughters Of the Confed-
eracy.
\ most impressive feature to-day
were memorial services to the Con-
federate dead, Cen. Clark reading
the inscriptions on the monument in
Columbia erected by the Daughters
or the Confederacy. and Gen. Lyon
responding with the audience, "They
died for their country" When the
great part the women played for the
Confederacy was read the expression
was God Bless the Women Of the
Confederacy." The audience stood
during the ceremony.
During the business session this
afternoon the names for the war
were discussed, the veterans having
before them a resolution to call II
war of Secession" 1t was not de-
cided to do this, but Civil War"
was barred
The text Of the resolution. which
was introduced by Gen. G.. Irvine
Walker. is as follows:
Whereas, the term Civil War as
now most generally applied to the
war between the Confederate States
ana the United States. 1861 to 1868,
is improper in that it reflects unjust
~ upon the legal and constitutional
action Of the Confcdcracy;
And, whereas. civil war means
contest between two or more por-
'ions Of the people Of the same coun-
try:
And. whereas. the sovereign
States. subsequently united into Con-
1cdcratc States had legally. consti-
tutional!y and peacefully seeded
from the other States of the Union
and were not, during the said war. n
part OF the Union and not of the
same country. therefore the term
civil war is absolutely incorrect and
gives Il mistaken conception of the
| legal action Of the Confcdcratcs.
And, whereas. the use of tbc
words Civil War as applied to the
war Of lS6l-lSGI can oniy mean
that 1t was Il war between two paris
or the same country. and be correct
only If the sovereign States. so scccd :

old Union;

IRELAND is NOW
PLAN SAYS LLOYD GEORGE

LONDON, Dec. 23-Self government
in all parts of Ireland is the plan of
England, according to Lloyd George
in addressing the house of commons
today.
The premier stated in discussing the
Irish question that the government
purposes establishing two parliaments
one for north Ireland and the other
for south Ireland. Every opportunity
will be given these parliaments to
establish unity.
A council to be selected by these two
parliaments will be the connecting
link between the two sections of the
island.
Each parliament is to have taxation
powers similar to that of the congress
of the United States. Customs, excise
and income profits taxes are to be
administered inpartialiy, Ireland to
get all duties and taxes above a fair
contribution to the imperial services.
The Irish parliaments are to have
sole control of all local matters eX-
cept those of the higher judiciary, and
of the army and navy, the Premier ex-
planned.

KILAUEA BREAKS OUT
UPON KAU DESERT

HILO, Dec. PA lava stream from
Kilauea has broken out six miles
southwest of the big crater and is
flowing slowly down across the Kau
desert. Prof. Jaggar predicts that the
new flow will drain tie Halemaumau
fire pit, as it is at least 500 feet be-
low the main crater.
The outbreak is nee the Kau road
and at about $500 foot elevation. 1t
is on comparatively level country and
may flow across the road, or may flow
southwark.
The new phenomenon is of strik-
ing character, and while it may die
out soon, Prof. Jaggar does not think
SO, but believes that tremendous ac-
tivity is %presaged.
