POLICE STOPPED BOUT
Minions of Law Call Halt to Johnson-F1ynn Mill in Ninth-Jack Complained About Jim's Tactics.

There was very little boxing in the heavyweight championship bout between Jack Johnson and Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman, at Las Vegas. New Mexico. on the Fourth of July, 1912.
 Flynn attacked Johnson some what after the manner of bull charging a BolsheviK banner. Johu- son devoted most of his energy to holding F'lynn's arms, like a ticklish person defending himself from a playful comrade. The police stopped the performance in the ninth round. The referee awarded his decision to Johnson as he had had the upper hand during those sporadic periods when it appeared that a boxing bout was taking place.
 Flynn was strong on headwork, but it was of a physical character Now and then he would ram his pate into the pit of Johnson's stomach.
 Johnson complained that Flynn was behaving like billy goat and Flynn called the referees attention to the manner in which Johnson was holding him.
 In the ninth round the challenger became extremely peeved when Johnson grabbed his arms and clinched tightly. on the break he

 The first thing you know, they'll wind up with me in the ring, referee ing the battle,' said Rickard last night, in an aggravated tone. i've done it before under similar circum- stances and it may happen again.
 The remark came in response to a query for any new developments in a situation which threatens the July I'd match.

ANDY IMPROVES HIS INDIVIDUAL AVERAGE
Rogers Recreation Alleys Star Is
 Runner Up to Mccarthy

Another replacement has been made in the Connecticut Duckpin tourney, due to the withdrawal of Joe Sterback of Bridgeport, and in his place William E. Sadler, manager of the Nutmeg al- leys in that city will complete his schedule. According to Secretary Charlie Mahoneys lineup, it remains for Eddie Anderson of this city, to wei come Brother Sadler into the tourney, and the said welcome party will be held this evening on the Nutmeg lanes in the Park City. The same bowlers will clash in this city tomorrow evening at Rogers Recreation alleys.
 Foote Versus Howard.
 Joe Foote, the Casino alleys repre- sentative draws Percy Howard of Meri- den as his opponent for the coming week. The popular Joey will journey to the quiet little city down state on Thursday evening, and it is to be hoped that the pin topping of the local star will not arouse peacable residents of the near-unconscious burg. Percy will be in our midst on Friday night when he tackles Foote at the Casino lanes.
 Andy Jumps Spalding.
 Eddie Anderson, by his stellar work of the past few weeks, has managed to pass Jack Spalding in the race for in dividual honorS in the league. Recent statistics compiled show the local boy to have an average of 110. He is sec ond to Mccarthy, who is a scant point ahead. Another good week for Andy will mean his step into the charmed circle in the league standing He is now in eighth position, and only a few games outside a position that will bring him within the money at the close of the season.

U. S. Dry Boss
Sets Home Brewers
Right on Law

Washington, Sept. 10 - Warning
that the making of intoxicating
home brew is illegal was issued
tonight by Prohibition Commission
er Haines.
Numerous inquiries have been re-
ceived recently, he said, concerning
the home manufacture of fruit
juices growing out of reports that a
head of "a household was entitled to
make 200 gallons of wine a year I'M
der permit.
The prohibition units attitude on
the home brew question was de-
fined by Mr.. Haines as follows:
Non Intoxicating fruit juices can
be made in the home. Intoxicating
wine, home brew and distilled spirits
may not be made. Two hundred
gallons of nom Intoxicating fruit
juice may be manufactured tax free
by the head of a family registering
with collector of internal revenue.
This exemption provision has
been the source of confusion. The
effect. of this is not to allow the
manufacture of 200 gallons of intoxi-
eating wine free from restrictions of
the national prohibition act, but
merely TO allo wthc manufacture of
200 gallons of Notwithstanding fruit
juices free of tax"

DUBLIN SEES MEETING

Dublin, Sept. 19--The members of
the Dali Eireann cabinet reviewed
the situation this afternoon giving
particular attention to Premier
Lloyd Georges kilograms. At the
conclusion of the session a reply to
the British prime minister was draft
ed and dispatched Immediately by
MIR. De Valera. SO far as the Sim
Fein position is concerned it did not
appear to change it in any way what
soever.
Al the same time. it is announced
that Mr.. De Nalera's desire for a con-
ference is strong as is that of his
colleagues. The members of the Dali
Eirann do not believe that the notes
forwarded to Mr.. Lloyd George were
open to the construction that they
claimed recognition as a sovereign
state. AS some of them express it,
their idea of q conference is one
which may lead to association with
the British commonwealth and, if
thath failed, would leave them in no
they entered it.
T. The general impression among the
members and their supporters seen
at the Mansion House today was that
a conference would be held.
