did not anticipate The champion in
formed them before the workout that
he intended to eliminate all burlesqus
from his training and that they would
have to lock out for themselves. He
boxed them in rotation, permitting
each man to rest two rounds after
boxing one.
Jack Heinen was knocked out twice
In the first round that he worked.
A right hand cross to the chin dropped
him fat and Willard shadow boxed
around the ring until the Chicagoan
recovered. Another short right to the
jaw q little later sent Heinen to the
canvas. When It came his turn for
the eighth round, he was outside the
ring holding his head in his hands.
Jack Hempel and Walter Honahan
also received a battering during the
six rounds they faced the champion.
After the work with the gloves VIII
lard shadow boxed at top speed,
wrestled and allowed his partners to
stand across the ring and throw the
heavy machine ball at his mid-sec-
ton.
Dempsey did no work with the
gloves today but tugged at the

LIGHTNING AFFECTS
Electric SERVICE

Street car patrons were disposed ID
be critical Of the service thru herr
yesterday but the trOnble with the
cars was unavoidable. The big storm
Of Thursday night, east Of here had
about put the Empire District people
out Of eommisilon. - -,
Several of their power plants were
disabled and the cars al day yester-
day drew hardly enough 'juice" to
keep them moving. ,s-
Some freak Of the storm, which
probably could be explained by cleo
trical workers, caused several Of the
light wires in the city to short cir
cult where the wires are attached to
the cross arms and to burst with a
loud report and then burn for Just q
few seconds.
Some Of the cars were delayed be-
tween Picher and Baxter and were
compelled to stand for some time un-
I'll the power came on strong enough
to move them.
The lightning struck and put the
main line from Riverton out Of COM
mission for two hours yesterday and
in consequence the local plant was
dead. That's the reason the Daily
Citizen was late. We had no power
for our typesetting machine and
press.

II has not been many years since
science discovered the noxious bacteria
that are supposed to lie in wait for
careless mortals and hasten their ad-
vent into the saccharine subsequently,
otherwise known as the sweet by and
by. Up to q generation ago or less
people lived In blissful unconscious
ness of the fact that they were full Of
deadly micrObs. According to modern
science they violated about every rule
of health, but somehow they lived in
many cases to be eighty or ninety or
possibly q hundred years old and
passed away full Of microbes we pre-
sumo but also with q glorious hope Of
q blessed immortality.
There Is no evidence that Adam
knew anything about rules Of health
or cared q cent, but he managed to
worry along without the service Of q
doctor as far as the record goes for
the brief span Of $50 years. Methuse-
lah holds the longevity record and
probably never heard Of q rule of
health.
The dirtiest man the writer ever
knew was the healthiest. He was
iglutton in his eating and was never
known to wash. By comparison with
him an ancient, odOrous billie goat
smelled like bower Of hOneysuckles.
It was told on him that on one oc-
casion the sheriff Of the county was
trying to train q brace Of young blood |
hounds to track criminals and this un-
washed citizen accommodatingly |
agreed to act the part Of a fleeing |
criminal and let the dogs track him.
Before they had followed the trail q
mile both dogs were sick, and refused
to follow the trail any further.
But that unwashed citizen was the
picture Of health. Citizens who bathed
and dieted according to the
most improved rules Of hygiene,
passed away and the OdOriferous citi-
zen followed their bodies to the ceme- II
cry and mingled his smell with the |
ears Of the mourners at the grave.
Perhaps he was immune because no
microbe would inhabit
lis person, but anyway he was
lealthy. II

Gen. March Outlines Americas Generalization
Plans. Empty Camps in Month";
Standing Army 100000.

Washington, Jan. 29.--Return

0co troops over seas is possible un-
uerplans worked out by the War
Department and laid before the SEN
ate military affairs committee today
by Gen. March, chief of staff. Should
the president decide upon force of
approximately ten divisions as an
army of occupation, Gen. March said
the task could be completed in less
time At the same time Gen. March
announced that the plans Of the
War Department contemplated the
rehabilitation within 80 days Of ev-
cry one of the $4,000 men in the
home training camps except a small
number retained for overhead du-
ty."
Return of the troops in France,
INVOLVING the transportation to this
country of 100000 men monthly
would be possible, Gen. March said,
by the use in addition to American
tonnage of ships allotted by the al
lies and the German passenger ton
age to be placed in service under the
terms of the armistice and later
agreements.
Gen. March indicated that the re-
turn of number of the veteran d.
visions must not be expected soon.
! He told the committee Gen. Pershing
and the War Department had agreed
that the army Of occupation should
be composed of experienced divis-
ions so they would not "unduly ex-
cite the Germans" and would be able
to run over them if necessary"
The length of the period during
which an army of occupation must
be maintained, War Department Of
ficials have said, depends entirely on
decisions reached by the associated
governments at the peace confer
ence and conditions in Germany.
There are still about $4,000 men
in camps in the United Sites and all
will be demobilized in month from
today, except those retained for
overhead" duty, Gen. March added.
Up to noon last Saturday, he said,
1O4, 900 men had arrived from over
seas.
In connection with the demobiliza-
ton plans, Gen. March stated that
under present plans retention of an
American standing army of 100000
is proposed.
eve don't ever expect to reduce
below 100000 men, if we can help
it," he told the committee.
