CARPENTER
is PUZZLE
Problem Of Whether French Cham
pion Wants 70 Meet Dempsey
or Has No Such
Intention.

EBy Henry L. Farrell. United Press
Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, June 23.-It used to
be the well known Chinese puzzle"
that was hard to solve.
II used to be a hard task that was
allotted to the equally well known
Philadelphia lawyer
But the king OF all hard guesses Is
the French puzzle facing the Ameri-
can fight fans
AS embodied in Francois Descamps
and Georges Carpenter, the French
puzzle is a baffler from B" TO "R- .
Since their arrival in the United
States TO add Jack Dempsey to their
list. of victims. both Frenchmen have
made so many contradictory state
ments that they have almost ceased
to be considered.
Out of charity and good sports
manship, Americans are believing
that through untami1iarity with the
English language, the European
champion and his manager didn't
know what they were saying when
they voiced that frequent I'VE will
fight any time"
While the worlds champion was
awaiting trial, the fans bore with
Carpenter and considered his inva-
sion of the studio, the stage and the
circus ring as legitimate field for
recouping a lost fortune.
Then came the desire to see Car
pentier show something for the
money that sportloving Americans
were pouring into his Golfers.
Even if it did smell of mouse,
the ann ouncement of fight with
Levinsky gave the impression that
Carpenter was at least sincere IN
his promises TO fight.
But when the Frenchmen called Off
the fight and announced they were
returning home IN July. the hands OF
fandom went up.
Descamps said they would return In
the fall to fight. But after 80 many
conflicting stories, fhe fans are al
lowed to place any construction on
that statement they desire.
The impression right now IN east
ern circles is that Carpenter viii
never return il he gets away this
time.

BONAPARTE WINS
SUNDAY GAME
Ottun1~a 5ule Sox Defeated BY Score
Of II to 8, With Five Runs In
Fourth Inning at Christy
Park

BONAPARTE. June 25.-The Bona
parte Indians easily defeated the OF.
tumwa Blue Sox here at Christy park
last Sunday by score Of II to g..
The Ottumwa team were heralded as
a fast aggregation and the fans here
we're disappointed In the brand OF
ball they put up Sunday. They were
about the easiest aggregat1 tom to WIN
from that has been seen at Chr1sty
park this year. The Bonaparte team
kept up their reputation as hitting
aggre cation Sunday and got fourteen
hits to six that were made by the
Ottumwa team. Storms on the mound
for Bonaparte, pitched good ball all
the way and besides holding the visi-
tors to six hits. he sent eleven of
them back to the bench on strikeouts.
Bona parte started right Oh the reel
and put two runs across in the f1rst
inning. Ottumwa scored first In the
third inning The largest crowd Of
the season was here Sunday and the
team here expect this to be the best
baseball season they have had IN
years. The following score tells the
story Of the Sunday game:

MEXICAN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IS ONLY FEW
 MONTHS AWAY NOW

MEXICO CITY, March 24- With the presidential election less than SIX months away, the political situation in Mexico is so obscure that it is im- possible to state definitely whether there are three or SIX candidates.
 President Carranza has been enn- phatic in his statements that he in- tends to retire when his term of office expires next December. He has de- clared for honest elections and peaceful transfer of power.
 A recent conference of seventeen Mexican governors held in the nation al capital took cognizance of their chiefs attitude by issuing manifesto to the people in which they pledged their support to the legally elected president. The governors conference was declared by the local press to have deep political significance inas- much as elaborate plans were made by the executives for holding elec- tions, each governor to exercise com plete control over the voting in his state.
 One significant part of their pro- gram was the elimination of the fed eral army from politics. This was :n accord with recent order from the War Department. mrde at the dicec- ton of President Carranza to the ef- fAct that army men must not medd'e in o'tics.

MAD MULLAH
 HAS ESCAPED

NEW YORK, March 24- Moham. med Bui Abdullah, the "Mad Mu.lal' of Somaliland, against whom British and Italina forces recently have been successful with tanks and aircraft, but who, himself, escaped, has caused trouble for the British for many years.
 He began stirring up the natives ot Somaliland in 1896, after making a pilgrimage to Mecca, and his "holy wars" sometimes have attained con- siderable success. In 1899 despatches said he was leading an uprising n the interior of Somaliland, and it was suggested that "a military promen- ade" be taken against him. That "pro- menade" grew into desultory cam paign which took three years and cost the British government $15,000,OOO. Even then, his power was only tenn porarily broken by the battle of Jid- balli, for he fled with the remnant of his forces to Italian territory de- stroying wells as he went and thus making pursuit impossible.
 While he was only one of the les ser religious chiefs of his country, his pilgrimage to Mecca and his zeal in preaching the Moselem faith aug mented his influence until he had col lected a large army, in which were some of the best fighting tribes in that part of Africa.
 He preached war for the protection of Ism and advocated the extermina. ton of whites, and with the increase of his power began a crusade, aided by dervishes, which finally extended over the whole of Somaliland.
 AS the result of an agreement reached in December 1905, between Great Britain and Italy to offer the Mullah an assignment of a settled sphere in Somaliland, together with grazer's rights in certain parts of British and Italian territory, he und- ertook to observe peace toward Brit ain and Italy.
 His next outbreak of consequence was in 1910. when he started feroc- ious campaign against the sultantes under British protection, and slaught- cred hundreds of tribesmen friendly to the British. Wide areas were hid waste and towns razed. The natural obstacles of the torrid desert county, combined with the Mullah's fanatic. ism won out, and the British decided to evacuate the country, for the time being. In 1915 he was again reported to be stirring up the tribesmen again st the British, and his adherents were scattered by British forces.
 "Mullah" in Somaliland means Header" and because of Mohamm nd Bui A bdullah's fanaticism and his campaigns for extermination of whites. he a religious leader, gained the title of "Mad Mullah".
