At o'clock Sunday morning when
Fred Byers, Waterman of the Singer
plant. was on his way to work, he
stumbled across the body Of man
lying close to the New York Central
tracks at Olive st. a fog lowered
over South Bend and it was chilly
and uncomfortable.
Mr.. Byers examined the man and
found that his right foot had been
cut off just below the ankle. His
jaw was agape, and a thin film
covered his eyes. The Waterman
shook the man, felt his pulse, and
listened for heart beats. but with no

who sits all night in the lonely tower
and warns OF approaching trains.
Together they visited the body and

The police were notified Officers
Saylor, Laskowski and Wright hur-

AN-X BEST IN HER CLASS

After being inactive because Of the
war for the last two years. the Yacht
Racing Association OF Gravesend Bay
held regatta unoer auspices Of the
Atlantic Yacht Club yesterday.
The number Of starters was a decided
surprise. During 1917 there was never
more than three yachts at the starting
line. Yesterday no less than eighteen
craft. divided into three classes, came
to the scratch OF Sea Gate. The num-
Der means that there should be at least
thirty yachts racing on the Lower Bay
cnce the season gets under way.
Naturally the beat against wind and
tide In the tight airs was responsible
for long race. To make matters more
difficult for the regatta committee few
OF the yachtsmen thought Il necessary
TO enter their craft. In the past two
years many OF the boats have changed
owners, and as they appeared without
either class letter or number on their
sails the committee had a grand old
time trying to recognize the yachts,
Among the knockabouts OF the Lower
Bay the FIRST prize was won by An-x,
the property of r. FitzGibbons. The
craft beat Mouse by rs seconds over the

usual interest to yaohtsmen. Not only
was It the first regatta held by the club
since 1915 but Il marked the debut OF
the 80 footers Of the organization built
during tho winter OF 1e1e-17 but never
before sailed In an opsn regatta In ad-
dition to three OF the new boats the fiset
was made UP of the various Glasses that
have been sailing since Decoration Day
on the waters of the Sound.
Four OF the new yachts were expected
10 start yesterday. The Georgia was not
ready and the Gray Dawn. the Vsruna
and the Nimbus made up the class. In
the informal races during the season of
1917. the varuna, which has the Marconi
rlg. did the best work. Yesterday, the
winner proved to be the Gray Dawn,
which defeated the varuna over q TWEEN
~ mile course by IL minutes and 20
seconds. The time would have been
cut down had not the varuna made a

On both actual and corrected time the

In the third division the Robin Hood II.
scored similar victory.
For the frst time this year one OF the
Glen Cove Jewel boats appeared at the
starting line. Having no class competi-
tor the yacht started three minutes In

made In the Star Class. The yacht was
the Jade. which covered tho course In

a liberal spirit In regard TO boxing
The Illinois Senate has passed bill
providing for n commission OF three
members to license and regulate pro-
fess!onal boxing In that State. The
bill provides for ten round no decision
bouts The measure also was passed
by the lower house and now Is up to
the Governor. The Senate also adopted
a measure providing for four round
bouts with ten ounce gloves between
amateurs, without State supervision.
Thus with two irons in tho fire 1t looks
