FOREST FIRE
ON HIGHWAY
LAST NIGHT
Fire Near Stoney's Ranch
Covers Three Acres-Ex-
tinguished in 3 Hours.

forest fire covering three acres
of ground, surrounding the 'Stoney
hog ranch on the Glacier Highway
last night, and which threatened the
ert're stretch along tho road, was
extinglr shed by the Juneau Fire De
nartmcrt after three hours work.
The fire started from burning
stump which Mr.. Stoncy had set and
left. expecting "a rain shower, which
threatened all last evening, to pre-
vent a spread of the blaze.
Shortly before 10 o'clock Mrs. John
T. Spickett and Mrs. George Bur
ford passed in an automobile and
saw that the fire was spreading
through the underbrush back toward
the heavy trees. near the base Of
the mountain. They came in town
AMI immediately called j. Latimer
Gray, fire chief Chief Gray tele-
phone to the operator in charge at
the Salmon Creek power house, who
reported the blaze to be rapidly
spreading to the tall timber.
A general fire alarm was sounded
and 80 men resnordc1, arriving az
the fire at II o'clock. When the
firNmen arrived at "SHoncy's Ranch
The fire had srread from the side of
tho road to the base of the moun-
tain. covering about three acres OF
ground. A southcastcrly wind was
blowing and for short time it was
feared the fire would reach the Caro-
re tdence. beyond the ranch.
A full strclm. running through the
burning ground, was damned and
the pumps on the truck were started.
Nine hundred feet Of hose was used.
Chief Gray said today that had it not
been for the stream flowing through
the Grounds, lit would have been i'm
possible to slve the Caro- residence
ard the fire wcHld probably have
srrea1 beyond control. The fire was
er+ rely ext.nguishcd at 1:45 O'Clock
this morning.

BARRETT IS KAY0ED
 BY WHITE IN THIRD
Punch in Region of Heart Settles
 the Philadelphia Boy

New York. Aug. s.--Charlie White. Chicago lightweight, made mileage last night in his long trip to another championship bout with Benny Leon- ard, the title holder. and Bobby Bar rett aspiring Philadephian, took . long drop backwards.
 Cool headed and quick. when op- portunity knocked. White dropped Barrett in the third round of their bout scheduled for IS rounds at the New York Velodrome, with a terrific right hand punch in the region of the heart. The Philadelphian fell to the resin face downward in a faint and came to just as Referee Patsy Haley was articulating the digit ten"
 Barrett Was Disappointed.
 Barrett was 50 disappointed when he was lifted to his coEner and real ized what had happened, that he broke into tears and sobbed, almost broken hearted. Matters had been about even when he fell, though the Philadelphian had missed by a foot or more, half dozen swings with his right hand that those who know say is about the dealiest wallop in the lightweight ranks today.
 It was simple case of an experi- enced ringster against a novice. Bar rett took the lead and had ripped the scab off Of cut on the Chicagoan's nose in the first round. and bruised the wound in the second. He paid more attention to Whites left hook the blow that has made Charlie one of the lightweight leaders--and was totally unprepared for the hard right sock to the heart.
 White and Tender?
 The result may mean that White and Lew Tender who recently was turned back by Leonard, will meet to |. decide which of the two is to have the next pot shot at the lightweight title. Tender knocked out Barrett with body punches in seven rounds and then went 12 rounds with the champion.
 White and Tender never have fought each other.
 Other Bouts On Card.
 In the semi final to the White Bar rett bout Pal Moore, Of Memphis, and Jack Wolfe, of Cleveland, fought l2 lively rounds to a draw. The crowd did not like Moore's jumping tactics and booed the decision.
 Charley McKenna of New York former amateur heavyweight cham pion, made his professional debut by giving a boxing lesson to Tim Kelly of Brooklyn. McKenna covered kelly's body with blows, closed ohe eye and cut gash over the other one. He was given the decision at the end of their six-round bout.
 Jack Norman of England, and Sammy Green, of the Bronx, fought { four round draw.

KApLAN AND WAGNER
Pride of the Silver City Is Confident He Will Defeat the Crack PhilA- delphian in Thursday Nights's Bout.

C. No bout in recent years has attracted the attention of the lovers of the boxing game in the Nutmeg state as the com ing argument between Kaplan and Wagner
 Wagner is the favorite with Hart ford fans and he also has a big fol- lowing in many of the towns nearby the Capitol City. This is due to the fact that he has a decision over the Meriden boy, gained some few weeks ago, after one of the most thrilling bouts ever seen in the Silver City.
 Since that time Kaplan has been anxious to wipe out the defeat. He says he will do it Thursday evening. If condition will gain glory for him. Kaplan should win, for he was never in better shape for a bout. He Is al-
 
 ready in the pink of condition and down to weight. The last few days of his training will find him taking light exercise so he will be right on edge to swap punches with the boy from the Quaker City.
 Meriden folks will declare Thursday q holiday. They are talking about nothing this week but the big bout. kaplan is idolized in his home town and his thousands of friends will be present to see him in action against one of the best two handed perform CTS in the country-Kid Wagner.
 Dwyer has arranged three fine bouts as added attractions to the main to. Tracey Ferguson will meet Dick Berry Of Fall River in the semi final of 10 rounds; Jimmy Proto will box six rounds with Young Silverberg ana Georgie Lynch will open the show with Frank Burns, the pride of New in four round clash.
