Lewis weighed 22S pounds, -
more than his opponent.
The finish was spectacular one.
Stecher was worn down to a weak
condition by eight successive head
locks in the last moments Of the
contest. He squirmed out of the
first of these in IS seconds but as
he arose to straighten up Lewis got
another on a flying hold. which he

scissors, his favorite hold, but by
sheer strength Lewis broke. away
and clamped on another deadlock

The next three were of short dur

Stecher had the better of the first

sor for most of the contest, winding
his legs around Lewis for the scis-

scissors a half dozen times, four Of
which were incomplete. He had
Lewis in jeopardy several times, but
was not able to follow up the scis-

Governor Miller
Puts Ban on Bout
Will Not Allow Dempsey.
Carpenter Fight to. Take
Place in New York.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
New York, Dec. tl4.-Under no
circumstances will Governor-elec.
Nathan Miller allow the Dempsey
Carpenter fight to take place in New
York. 1t was said Judge Miller is
opposed to the boxing law as 1t
stands and that he will recommend
to the legislature its amendment to
permit bouts only between amateurs
Further a tax probably will be i'm
posed on base bali to add to the
state revenues. 1t is likely the levy
imposed will apply only to Sunday
games.
In an effort to save the boxing
law the present boxing commission
and the licensing committee, each
composed of two democrats and one
republican, have offered their resig-
nations to the governor-elect. Their
object in doing this is to allow Judge
Miller to appoint men who will
conduct the game according to his
wishes.
As to the Dempsey Carpenter
match, it was learned that Judge
Miller regards it as a prize fight,
pure and simple, and that he will moi
sanction its being staged within the
confines of this state.

Any man can demand trial by a

eggs at his llard-boiled nom-in-law.
The old lady lodged 'em as if they
were only worth three cents
dozen. After shopping among the
law books for five hours the juror
esses handed down a verdict OF jus
tifable homicide in very feeble de-
gree. They recommended that the
plaintiff cook some more eggs and
furnish 'em with more evidence.
