WILL FIGHT, RAIN OR SHINE
Dempsey Miske Bout Sure to Be
Pulled OF Labor Day.

| Benton Harbor, Mich, Sept 3.--Rain
will not cause postponement of the
heavyweight championship contest be-
tween Jack Dempsey and Billy Miske,
set for Monday afternoon. Promoter
Fitzsimmons announced to-day. The
ring and large part of the open air
arena will be covered with canvas if
the weather is threatening and the
fighters will go into the ring on sched-
Eule time no matter if there is down
pour.
The referee situation is expected to
be cleared up to-day with the arrival of
Thomas Bigger. chairman of the state
athletic commission. Jack Kearns,
manager of the champion, said that he
would insist upon naming an official of
his own selection.
FitzsimmoRs said that the advance
sale had feached $4,000 and that indi-
cations were favorable for total gate
of sl50,000.
There is plenty of Dempsey money in
light, but the Miske dollars are scarce
One wager of 5000 at even money
that Miske would stay the limit was
quickly snatched up. 4 bet of $4,000
to $4,000 that Dempsey would win was
recorded.
George A. Barton, a sporting editor
in Minneapolis, who refereed the first
fight between Champion Dempsey and
Nlske at st, Paul in May, 1918, in an
interview to-day said, Miske held
Dempsey to draw in their ten-round
encounter Most of the experts thought
Dempsey won.

BODY OF SUICIDE
GIVEN TO WOMAN
WHO PROVED CLAIM
Three Women Asserted That Flash"
Rogers Was Their Husband, But
Houston, Texas, Woman
Had the Best Proof.

Boston, Sept. 3. - The body oi
Flash Rogers, a boxer, who commit
ted suicide by gas, was given to-day to
Mrs. Ruth E. Rogers of Houston, Tex,
as, as that of Manuel A. Rogers, her
husband, after two other women had
claimed it. The description which each
woman gave of her missing husband
fitted the body almost exactly and the
names were identical, but the posi-.
bility that he had married all three
was eliminated by the dates they gave.
1t required several hours for the au1
thorities to dispose of the conflicting
claims.
Rena Rogers of New Bedford first
claimed the body as that of the man
she married in that city in 1913. He
disappeared in 1918. Ruth f. Rogers
said she met the man while he was a
soldier in camp at Houston, Texas, in
1917, and had lived with him since,
except for the time of his service over
seas, and week before his death,
When they separated, atter quarrel
While Medical Examiner William j.
Buckley was trying to weigh these
claims, telephone call came from an
other woman, who had read of Rogers
death, and said he was her husband,
but her claim was thrown out, when it
was found that the body did not show
a scar she mentioned.
In each instance the woman gave the
mans measurements, age and princi-
pal items of description as the medical
examiner had found them. A picture of
Ruth Il. Rogers in the effects of the
dead boxer, and reference to her in
the note which announced his intention
to commit suicide, eventually estab.
lished her claim.

SMALL SIGNAL BUOY
LED TO THE RESCUE
More or Less By Chance
the Signal Was Seen and
on Investigation the Buz-
ger Equipment Told of 30
Men Imprisoned Deep in
the Sea.

Philadelphia, Sept. 3.-Radio mes
sages flashed from the army transport
General Goethals to the Philadelphia
navy yard via Cape May told of the
rescue early to day of the officers and
crew of the submarine SO, after they
had, spent nearly two days locked in
the disabled vessel beneath the Atlantic
ocean IS miles south of Cape Henlopen
It was after three O'Clock this morn
ing when Lieutenant Commander c. NJ.
Cook, who exercised his prerogative of
being the last man to leave his vessel,
was taken aboard the steamship Alan
thus. Nine hours had elapsed since the
plight of the undersea boat had been
made public through wireless call
picked up by an amateur operator in
Pennington, Conn The Alanthus after
rescuing the men took the submarine
in tow for Delaware Breakwater.
srIt was small buoy, a development
vigilant eye of a lookout on the bridge
of the transport General Goethals that
gave the thirty men on the submerged
SIS their chance for life.
This small buoy with a bell and
buzzer device that can be operated
when the boat is submerged is part of
the equipment of all later-type sub
marines. 1t was cast loose when the
S.5 went down. The lookout on the
General Goethals saw it, being at
tracted by its bell, as well as the fact
that it was not noted on the chart.
A small boat, with an officer in com
msnd, was lowered from the transport
to investigate. When the buoy was
reached the buzzer device could be
heard. The officer cut into the connec-
tion and quickly there came this
message:
'The. submarine So has been sub
merged for 35 hours. Air is running
short. Machinery is damaged. Send
for help"
This plea was sent broadcast by the
wireless of the General Goethals
Among those who responded was the
steamer Alsnthus, which with the army
transport stood by the submerged yes
sci and managed to attach graphing
hooks to its stern. The submarine was
held in a vertical position. and a hole
was bored through her plates and air
pumped through to the suffering crew,
who had almost given up all hope of
rescue
In the meantime the call for help
had been picked up by the navy wire
less stations and by command of Sec
retary Daniels. destroyers were rushed
to the rescue from Philadelphia, New.
port News and New York.
Before all these vessels had had time |
to reach the scene, however, word was
flashed that all the crew had been
taken aboard the steamer Alanthus. |
No one had been injured, although all
had suffered for lack Of air. II was
one O'Clock when the first man was
taken of the submarine and more
than two hours later before Lieuten-
ant Commander Cook left his vessel.

ing. heartburn. bloat after eating food re-
peating. sour. gassy stomach. There are
many ailments which. while they do NOT

are. nevertheless, traceable to an acid
stomach. Among these nervousness.
bilousness. cirrhosis of the liver, rheuma-
tism. impoverished blood. weakness. insom-
MIA, melancholia and long train Of phys
ical and mental miseries that keep the
victims in miserable health year after year.
The right thing to do Is to attack these
ailments at their source-get rid OF the acid
stomach. A wonderful modern remedy called
EATONIC now makes 1t easy to do this.
One of hundreds of thousands of grateful
of EATONIC writes: Il have been

MR.. WAKEFIELD IN TOWN

Col. Samuel J. Wakefield, of Antre-
vile, was here Saturday on busi-
nedd. He had not visited Abbeville
for some time, being busy with mat
ters at home. He tells US that he Is
preparing to erect new home on
the fine plantation he bought at the
beginning of the year from the Knox
estate, and he expects this job to
keep him busy until the land trading
gets lively, when he will get other
people busy.
He tells US that there are large
numbers of people in Anderson
county who sold their lands last fall
and who have not been able to pur-
chase again for the reason that lands
have given out in that county. He ex-
poets these good farmers to invade
Abbeville county during the summer,
being attracted by the fertility of
our soil and the moderate prices
asked for lands here. Like a great
many of US he would welcome some
of the Anderson hustle and thrift in
the farming business in Abhcv.lle
County.
