CHINESE BANDITS
 OCCUPYING CITY
Take Over Shantuns Port--Japs
 Agree to Quit Province

Tien Tsin, China. Dec. 6 (By Asso- ciated Pfess)-Reports received here say that Chipese bandits have taken control of Tsingtao, shnntung the kiaochow port whose stormy career in war and diplomacy was to cul- minate today in its return to China after 24 years of alien rule, the first IS under Germany and the last eight under Japanese. The population is reported fleeing from the city.
 Trains from Tsingtao are said to be crowded with refugees. Chinese po- lice. sent from Picking to take over the city are reported to have been driven out of their barracks.
 Demand SiOO.OOO Ransom. The bandits, according to the tele- grams demand $l00.0OO ransom for the delivery of government officials and police in their hands. The out laws also hold out for the appoint- ment of their chief as governor of the port
 Shops and residences are being footed nightly, the dispatches say. The 10000 Japanese who remain in Tsingtao. unorganized for defending the, city, apparently are impotent in the face of the menace.
 This was the day set for the actual delivery Of l<iaochow territory from Japan to China under the terms of the Washington armament conference. The, region was seized by Germany in 1898 as indemnity for losses suffered in the Boxer uprising, At the out break of the world war Japan cap- tured 1t and it was awarded it at the peace of Versailles, but in tonversa- ttions with China at the Washington conference agreed to turn it back this winter. 1t.i

GILBERT RECEIVES
A SIGNAL HONOR
Eighth District Congressman Is
Made Ranking Member on
Important Committee

His many friends all over his
district are delighted at news
from Washington of the unusual
and signal honor that has just
been conferred upon Congress-
man Ralph Gilbert by his demo-
sratlc colleagues of the House.
He has been named as the rank
ing minority member of the Com
mittee on District of Columbia.
This is a very rare honor for 4
first term member.
Congressman Woods, ranking
Democratic member of the COM
mlttee resigned the other day and
the Democratic members and
leaders promptly chose Mr.. Gil
bert for the post, jumping him
over the heads of two other Dem
ocrats who outranked him in
point of seniority. They were
Congressman Sullivan, Of New
York, and Blanton Of Texas, both
of whom are three-term mem
bers. -.
Such an honor for Gilbert
means that if the next Congress
Isl democrati-which many we'll
posted men think entirely possi-
ble-he will assume the Chair
manship of the District of Column
bia committee, a very Important
post. The congressional commit
tee has charge of the government
of the District of Columbia, the
seat of the national capital.
+. 1t seems to be generally CON
Ceded that Gilbert will receive the
unanimous endorsement of the
democrats of his district by being
renominated without opposition
at the coming primary. His
friends maintain that his record
has been so good and he is COM
ing to the front so rapidly that
the Eighth district cannot afford
to take chance on untried tim
Der at such critical time in the
affairs of the nation. This new
honor coming to Judge Gilbert
will undoubtedly signify to the
people back home, the high posi-
ton and esteem in which he is
held by his colleagues at Wash
ington--and which is one of the
surest tests of the ability of
member of Congress, for the 9th
or members see him and note his
action day in and day out and
know whether he is worth whiic
or not.

BY FRANK G. MENKE

Jack Johnson is in training for an
attempted comeback"
There is a minglng of amazement,
of wonderment and something of pa
thos in the effort of the 55-year old
negro to fight again.
He appeared the other day In the
gymnasium of Madison Square Garden.
New York, and with the eagerness of a
boy, attempted to demonstrate that a
free and easy life and the flight of the
years had not ravaged the marvellous
human fighting machine which was
Jack Johnson's of the Reno days of
1910.
There were mild gasps of astonish-
ment when Johnson, wearing tights
and also a shirt to cover the upper
body, appeared for his initial workout.
1t was expected that his once superb
fighting body had taken on pounds
and yet more pounds = of killing
weight.
Gains But Little
Yet Johnson-44 years old and 10
years beyond his fistic prime-seemed
hut little heavier and no less sleek
than in the Havana days of 1915. He
beamed around 225 for his fight with
Jess Willard in Cuba-and today he
bulks but little more.
I'm old-a little old" he grinned, az
he squared off for three round trial
with Gordon Munce. a giant heavy
weight, who was holder of the amateur
championship. "Yes, sir, little old,
but l still can whip those young up
starts like Harry Wills"
in
son to Munce, "Just tear in and sock
Munce is Annoyed
The challenge annoyed Munce-just
as Johnson had hoped. 1t annoyed
Munce to point where he decided to
show that Johnson was a bit too
cocky about his ability to beat an at.
tack.
So Munce tore in.
But never landed a single punch IN
that first round, although Johnson
moved hardly four feet from the first
spot. With almost the same skill as
of yore, Johnson caught the leads of
Munce almost as they started-and
brushed them aside.
He never resorted once to foot
work. All he used was his hands and
ducking and shifting of his head. There
were low murmurs of establishment
from those who watched and the
younger generation of fighters, who
never saw johnson at his best, were
spell bound by the ancient gladiator's
cleverness.
In the second round Johnson again
dared Munce to hit him-and, in that
session, he started to use his feet.
There wasn't the same old speed in
the Johnsonian shift and sidestep but,
just the same, he made Munce miss SO
often and by such wide margins that
it looked as If Munce was swinging
with his eyes shut
Perhaps just to learn for himself
II he still could take a few on the
jaw and body, Johnson permitted
