Electricity and RulIeta.

At a rifle meeting In Switzerland II
was discovered that the steel-jacketed
bullets Of the marksmen were swerved
from their course by the influence OF
telegraph and telephone wires running
alongside the range, says the Washing
ton Star. Experiments were then
made at Thun by placing four steel
cables parallel with the range and
about 40 yards distant from 1t and
sending current Of 5000 volts
through them. The effect, 1t Is said,
was to turn the bullets SO far from
their course that the deviation
amounted to "A yards on a range OF
go yards. The bullets on being taken
from the targets were found to be
magnetized. Next, on an artillery
range of 1900 yards, the electrO-mag-
netic influence was generated 2OO
yards I'm front of the targets and 40
yards to one side. The projectiles
were swerved IA degrees from
straight line.

Referee Ertie Recalls Fiery FIareUp
OF the Frenehman In That Famous
Second Round,

It's true very probably that much
Of the glory and grandeur have been
stripped from the ring sport. There
is an appalling dearth Of the old TO
mantle characters whose escapades
furnished so much cOlOrful literature
In the bygone period. For one thing
you don't find any George Silers or
Charley Whites In the refereeing game
any more. No important fight was
ever considered strictly official in the
old days unless Siler or White was
on hand to handle 1t. Billy Jordan's
fame as an announcer In the days Of
Fitz and Corbett and JEFF was ma
tion-wide.
The best known referee In America
today is Harry Ertie, Of New Jersey.
There is nothing picturesque about
him.. He's a trim built, athletic look
ing chap. with a pair Of steady eyes
and generous shock Of hair that
Ia rapidly turning gray.
Ertle has handed some big fights.
the Carpentier-Dempsey battle among
others. Ertle cofffesses that the big
fight gave him the biggest thrill he
has ever experienced in the ring.
Il saw a man who was but little
more than a middleweight come within
q hairs width of winning the worlds
title that day." Ertls relates. THAT
was In the second round when the
Frenchman sent Dempsey spinning
backwards with furry Of hooks.
Il saw Dempsey's face cloud az he
backed away. saw a tigerish CLEAN
come into the Frenchman's eyes. !
saw him pull back his right hand and
shoot 1t savagely for the champions
Jaw. Every ounce Of energy and pres
sure he had at his command was
behind that punch. Every hope and
chance he had to win were crowded
into that endeavor.
II can still hear the ominous swish
of his gloved hand as 1t came tearing
through the hot July atmosphere. For
the slightest fraction of a second
everybody In the immense stadium was
on the threshold Of a miracle. The
blow was close enough to Craze the
champions chin. Had It landed Demp
sey most certainly would have
dropped"
Ertle was the third man In the ring
the night Leonard and Tender fought.
perhaps that wasn't the greatest
fight ever held between lightweights,
but II was certainly one Of the great
est" asserts Ertle. Leonard had more
trouble solving Tenders southpaw
style Of milling than he had anticipat-
ed. and for that reason the fight was
dangerously close. But after the
champion got his bearings he plainly
proved his superiority. From the
eighth round on II was his light al

MANUFACTURE GREATEST INDUSTRY
 OF UNITED STATES

WASHINGTON. Dec. 1. The
 popular conception tho iron and steel
 industry is the largest single ono in tho country Ia declaret by the Agriculture Department to be errone. ous. The greatest industry is that of food manufacturing. It outstrips Iron and steel. the department says, 4s four outstrips one.
 As emphasistng the need of addi- tional food control lava. the de- partmant calls attention to the great growth in recent times of food man. ufacturinE in factories as against preparation in homes. A few years ago, it says. most food was prepared at home or nearby and since the consumer knew about the conditions of its preparation there was little need for food laws. Today, as so much food is produced and prepared "a long way from those who consume it, some sort of government control is regarded by department officers as necessary
 The meat packing industry alone. the department declares, represents greater value than the steel in dustry The total value of manu- factured food products, in 1919 was $13.391 914, 1000. Among the food products that make up the total, flour mill products stand nett to packing house products.
 Considering the size of the task the federal inspection of food is low, it was stated. The cost having been less than one-hundredth of 1 per cent. of the value of those pro ducts. That the job is 8 large one is shown by census figures noting that in 1919 there were 67,453 estab- ishments engaged in the manufac- ture of food products, with an an nual output values at the huge amount mentioned. These figures include manufactured goods only and do not take into account the great valume of commerce in raw foods such as milk, fresh fish, wheat, corn, cats, fruits and vege- tables. To these large amounts must be added the food products inn ported, which in 1921 amounted to $672,s75, ,000.

SUN TAT SEN ACCUSED OF
 BOLSHEVISM

0Oos~
 SHANGHAI, Dec. 1.--Alleging thai Dr. Sun YAt Sen was striving to of feet an alliance of China with Ger many and tho Moscow Soviet govern ment of Russia, the Hong Kong Tel egraph has startled political Chins by ita sensational chargea.
 According to the Hong Kong pc per, documents that reveal the pur' pose of the Southern leader were found in a safe following Suns flight from Canton after the revolt against him by the forces of Gen eral Chen Chiung-ming.
 In formal written statement, Dr. Sun has answered the blast di. rected against him.
 The following Is from 8 recent issue of the Telegraph:
 .'It has long since been charged against Sun Yet Sen that he has embraced Bolshevist doctrines. up until now there has been lack of concrete proof, but today we are able to publish what we knew to be irrefutable evidence that Sun has been conspiring to bring about an alliance between China, Germany and Russia, based on Bolshevist ideas.
 When Sun Vat Sen and his off cials fled from their homes on the nighx of General Chen's coup in Can ton the vice-minister of finance left behind a safe. In the safe were dis covered certain letters, one being in Suns own handwriting, proving that were then being car ried on to bring about the alliance already referred to. We have taken every step to ensure that they are before giving them pub lfcity
 "From the translations it is re yealed, that the leading spirits in this movement are Sun and Admiral von Hintze, the present German minister to Moscow and who was formerly German minister to Picking The correspondence shows that sun and von Hintze were arranging to establish a bureau in Canton which was to be the headquarters for Bol- shevik agents who were to be sent to China"
 In replying to the charges pr. Sun says:
 "Dr. Sun believes that China, at her present stage of modernization, stands in great need of assistance from powers who will treat and deal with her as an equal and full state. He. believes that Germany and Russia are now so cir and governed that China can treat with them on terms of equality. He Is, therefore. in favor of a policy looking toward 8 closer with those two pow CTS. He does not consider such a policy would initiate against the legitimate interests of any power that desires a strong and united China. He might be dubbed pro-Ger- man or -Bolshevik. Those cpl thets of hate and revenge have no terrors for him.
 Regarding the charges that Sun contemplated Bolshevism in China he states:
 "Dr. Sun says that the allegation is foolish, because no one can really believe that there exists in China the same historical and economic conditions which have produced the seouence of events in Russia known as Bolshevism. The statement IS
 A glance at his writings will show that he holds very strongly that ef- fectiye development and use of China's incalculable resources ne cessitates the cooperation of for eign technical assistance. He has made repeated offers for such co operation in American, British and
