MISTAKE IN THE LOCATION
Despite Walters Assertion, Traveller
Was Convinced They Were In
the Wrong Room.

The late William Dean Howells was
very fond Of travelling in Spain. He
enc said on his return from Anda-
tuSia:
THE spaniards, especially the
southern Spaniards. have enormous
families. Eight children Is the aver
age, and families Of 10 and II chill
dren are quiet common.
"But ehey don't know how to raise
these children. They take babies Of
three or four months travelling with
them. In every hotel and train there
are sure to be as many babies as
adults.
81 was ushered one evening by q
Malaga waiter into the lofty marble
and bronze restaurant Of a sumptuous
hotel. The restaurant was crowded
with babies.

BOGAsH IS VICTOR.
Bartfield Appeals to Referee to Stop
 Bout, Claiming Injury.

Bridgeport, June 21.-Louis Be- gash of this city, last night scored a technical knockout over Soldier Bartfield in the third round of their scheduled fifteen round, bout when his opponent appealed to Referee Terry Lee to stop the bout, claiming an injury to his arm. -
 Bartfield declared that he cut his arm in the second round and it was noticed by spectators that the arm hung apparently helpless by his side during the latter part of the second session. Shortly after the third round started, Bartfield requested Lee to stop the bout.
 An examination of Bartf1elds arm following he bout could not uncover any apparent physical injury and an X-ray will be taken today. In the meantime, Bartfields end of the purse will be held by, the local box ing commission.
 In the semi-fina1 bout, Bud Weafer knocked out Steady Steadman in the third round.

 I did stay in England and was matched to meet Young Ahearn. who, although he was an Englshman by birth. had done most of his fighting in the United States. He was a re- markedly fast man. with both his hands and feet, but, like Bombardier Wells, he had his weak spots, which were so fragile that a single hard punch was sufficient to defeat him
 But while I tarried in England training for the coming match with Ahearn, war was declared between France and Germany and. I hastened off home. announcing that would not meet Ahearn.
 War meant one thing to me at this time. aside from the terror of my country. and this that Francois Des- camps must hurry away to battle, for he was older than I. rushed off to tell him the news. but found him al- ready packing his clothing, preparing for the trip to France, where he would join his regiment

June 21.-For- mer soldiers of the world apparently have not forgotten the slogan, your uniform is your pass,' which during the conflict was adopted for them in many places of amusement through out the country. The man attired in his old time fighting duds never fails to gain admittance to the camp of Georges Carpenter, and Manager Descamps has been prompted to in quire whether the American EXpe- ditionary Forces have been demob- ilized or not. He declared enough men in uniform to form an army corps have called to see the challenger in action during the past two weeks. Georges started out by presenting each of his former fighting companions an autographed photograph, bgt the de- mand soon exceeded the supply; and now they must be content with the everready smile, hand shake, and a hello buddy"

NORFOLK TO HELP CHAMP.
Negro Heavyweight Who Has Sought 8 Match With Dempsey in the Past, Joins Training Squad.

Atlantic City, June 21.-Kid Nor folk, negro light heavyweight, who has been clamoring for a match with Jack Dempsey. today joined the heavyweight champions staff of spar ring partners. Jack Kearns, manager of the heavyweight champion, con- siders the acquisition of Norfolk to the champions staff of sparring part ners as 9 valuable asset.
 Norfolk is the first of a number of high-class boxers who will be brought into camp to put Dempsey on edge in the final ten days of his training.
 Larry Williams appears to be the only sparring partner in camp who gives Dempsey any kind of a work out. Larry mixes furiously with the champion, despite the fact that he takes a facing each day he performs. Yesterday Dempsey nearly scored a clean knockdown over the blonde sparring partner.
 Yesterday the champion increased his boxing to eight rounds for the first time since he started training. The crowds which witness the daily workouts at Dempsey's outdoor camp are getting larger each day. Women spectators are numerous and they ap- plaud the champion aa he goes through his paces.
 Manager Kearns was scheduled to leave today for New York for a con- ference with Tex Rickard in an eff fort to clear up the referee question over which a controversy has de- veloped.

| part after all these pleasant years to | gether. I must go to war, while you
 my son, are not yet old enough. You | must wait until you are called on Not so,'' I cried. "If you think ] will allow you to go alone, you are
 mistaken. The war has come. So
 be it. But I, also. shall join. I will
 enlist at once. While the war lasts | there will be no boxing for me. This | very day I lay aside my boxing | gloves. There will be boxing after the war when peace comes. It can l not be long delayed
 But war, Georges. it not for boys. | You will not be accepted. You must | wait.
 To-day, even now" I persisted. "I go to enlist. They will take me quickly enough"
 Immediately I called the promoter of the Ahearn match on the telephone and told him I could not meet the British boxer. Then we prepared to leave for Paris. We went to the French consulate in London, Des- camps to report for duty and I to volunteer.
 It was arranged that we should leave Paris August 4, but it was in fact three days later before we were able to take our leave of London which was a hustle of war prepara- tion and entirely unlike the happy, cheering city I had greeted when I came from France.
 Paris was a mad city. The war was yet only a few days old, yet mny of my friends already had met their deaths on the battlefield. The Germans were marching fast. There was only tenseness and longing in the beautiful city.
 Being a volunteer I was enabled to choose the branch of service I should enter, and at once I decided I should like the aviation. I believed it would be but a few weeks until I should be riding in my own airplane. But there were other disappointments yet for me.
 Choosing my branch of the service was followed immediately by orders to report at a camp at St. Cyr, near Versailles and about sixteen miles from Paris. The vision of my air plane grew stronger as I arrived.
 I reported to an officer
 oh yes,' he said. "I know knew. You are a boxer, is it not so? Well. do you drive a carr"
 '"Ah. but certainly" I responded, wondering what vague thing this was he was asking about.
 Tt is good" he replied. II need a driver for my car and you shall do very nicely
 And so there was I. a champion fighter, in a big war with a tremen- dous task of driving an automobile! The irony of it amused me at first and then. I grew irritable, but com mon sense told me it was folly to protest. so I allowed events to take their course.
 For many weeks did I drive this officer to and fro about the camp. was resting and really enjoying my self, even with the rigors of military life. It was a life of ease for me.

CARP. REFEREES BOUT
Frenchman Who Seeks Heavyweight Title, Once Acted As Third Man in Ring for Championship Go.

Sometime after he defeated Jeffries, Jack Johnson was indicted on charges of violating the Mann act but he evaded arrest and finally journeyed to Paris. When the exchequer Shriveled bit, he accepted a challenge from Frank Moran, of Pittsburgh, and they faced one another in France on June 27, 1914. The negro warrior scored a victory on points in 20 rounds.
 Moran was game and stubbornly stood up to Johnson's assaults, which had not the steam of the champion S earlier attacks. Johnson possessed all of his old-time skill, however.
 There was not a single knockdown nor anything that smacked of a finish ing blow. Johnsons superior skill and his incessant uppercutting kept Moran in Subjection. Moran'S attack lacked the power to dispose of. his adversary.
 The crowd was as cosmopolitan as Paris itself. There were barons and dukes at the ringside, and earls and duchesses, too. Sporting men of many nations, clad in the formal evening garb with which Europe honors it's boxers, were part of the throng.
 Johnson was proud of his victory, for it was the first time that champion as old as he had ever defended his title and won. He was then 36 years old, Moran's senior by almost a decade.
 The referee of the fight was Georges Carpenter, who now aspires to become heavyweight champion by whipping Dempsey.
