AMATEURS GIVE
GOOD EXHIBITION
Bill Garner Wins From Burnham In
Second Round of Main BOut-''Red''
Bolster Gets DecisiOn-YOung Lads
Put Up Great Battle.

The first of a series of amateur box
ing exhibitions was held at the Orph-
cum Theatre last Saturday before a
small but enthusiastic audience.
Two of the preliminaries were
changed because of sickness and in
jury Of contestants disquolifying them
from going into the ring.
MAIN BOUT
WAS SHORT
The main bout between Garner
of Raymond and Burnham Of Out
look, which was scheduled for ten
rounds, ended abruptly in the second
round when Garner slipped a right
to Burnham S jaw while fighting at
/ close quarters in the middle Of the
I second round and Burnham dropped
to the mat and was cIunted out.
Up to the time OF the K. O., the
! boys were going about even, although
/ Garner seemed the more confident of
the two. The fans of this section
OF the country would like to see Gar
ner go up against a man who has
the reputation as a fighter as they
believe that "Bill' can take them all
at lao pcCnds. Come on Scobey. Pop
lar, Wolf Point or any other town,
trOt out your amateurs.
ROBERTS QUITS
IN THE THIRD
AS a substitute for T-Bone Garrick
OF Outlook, who he doctor on exani-
nation refused to allow to enter the
ring because of temperature of 1O2.
Roberts went in with "Red" BOLSTER
OF PlentywoOd. The first round was
a bear cat" and the boys went to it
with a vengeance. Roberts had "Red"
worried the first round by his tactics
OF coming from the ground up. The
second round was a draw, but Roberts
refused to come on for the third for
reasons best known to himself and
Red" was awarded the decision
There IS a rumOr that "Red" Boil
ster and Young Garner NAV meet in
the nCt-far distant future. but tbe
difference in weight may cause this
rumOr to fade away.
BOLSTER AND BANTZ
FIGHT 1T OUT
Clay Bolster and Paul Bantz two
youngsters, gave a very good exhibi-
uon and did some splendid boxino
considering their. age. While Roi7
ster had it on Bantz for wei0b+ ond
reach, the smaller lad made uD for if

OF tins kind will be staged and as soon
as the Farmer-Labor temple is com

Pen AND INK
| MANS ENEMY
By John P. Medbury.

sUNE letters are pelnB pre-
scented in court so much
A lately that any man who
can read or write is in constant
danger.
when writing a note to your
sweetheart, it's safer to start it
"Dear Madam" and end 1t with
Yours truly" s.
When In doubt. use the tele-
phone.
After you write love letter to
your fiineee; always read it aloud
to yourself. so that you can. hear
z how 1t will sound in court.
It's too late to make any
changes in it after it reaches her
lawyers office.
Pen and ink are rapidly becon-
ing mans worst enemies.
Illiteracy will soon be the best
protection in the world.
It's even getting dangerous to
sign your own name to a check.
One little boy refused to
study penmanship in school. He
said to the teacher, mo dame, is
going to hook me when grow
up"
n. Another kid wouldn't, learn how
60 write anything except Cow
''iog" and ''cat."
He said If he ever fell in love,
he'd telegraph his letters and use
his roomInate's name. :
It's getting so that you can't
write anything to a dame any
more that she can't sue you for.
If you tell her the weather is
beautiful and she finds out it
was raining, she has you arrested
for perjury.
A clever lawyer can find three
or four breach of promise suits
on a blank sheet Of paper.
It isn't what you didn't write,
It's what you3would have written
II YOU had. had q fountain pen.
OF course in a weak case like
this the girl would probably get
; only ten or fifteen thousand dol
lars.
One dame sued a fellow for
twenty-five hundred bucks just be-
cause he had a writing tablet in
his room.
The. fellow said he bought the
:" tablet to write to his mother on.
and the Judge told him he ought
to be ashamed to drag his family
Into IT.
It won't be long before all the
men will be going down to the
police station to write their love
letters. ~
When you write to a girl nova
days, it's best to- use typewriter,
then throw the machine in the
ocean and toss the letter in after
It. -

LAWRENCEVILLE, H., Aug. l. People of Lawrenceyille, who for sev. eral months have made strenuous eff forts to create a metropolitan atmos- phere for New Workers who came here when the headquarters of the Indiana Refining company were moved from New York, only to witness their exodus later, are convinced that Broadway and Main street won't mix. The best that Lawrenceville did was not good enough for the customers.
 Local restaurants abandoned their time-honored hominy, succotash, pork and potato menus for French salad, Boston creamed grilled lamb chops and Brussels sprouts to cater to New York tastes. Movie theatres tried to get newly released films and offered their buildings for amateur theatricals, box ing and dancing. A soda shop owner hired an orchestra in a valiant attempt to reproduce Greenwich Village. All to no avail. Of three hundred New Workers who came to Lawrenceville, about half resigned and hurried back to Gotham,

CONVICT BOARD DENIES CHARGES
 OF BRUTALITY
No Further Investigation Contemplated, States
 Governor Brandon
(State Capitol Bureaul

MONTGOMERY, Ala. Aug. 1.-! The letter charging brutal mistreat- ment of convicts at River Falls prison was branded as false by Dr. F. F. Blair. physician inspector of the state convict department. in a report submitted to- day. Dr. Blair's report was made to the board of administration and trans mitted to the governor. Governor Brandon, who earlier in the day, had said that an investigation would be made of the report of mistreatment of convicts at River Falls, stated after re- ceipt of Dr. Blair's report that no fur ther investigation was contemplated.
 COnviets Charge Cruelty
 The compliant from prisoners at River Falls was printed in a letter from them in the Montgomery Journal, the letter charging that prisoners were beaten with sticks and straps, confined in ''hot house" all night and worked the following day, and that they were not receiving adequate food and medical at- tention.
 Dr. Blair's letter on conditions at River Faalls. received today by the state board of administration, stated:
 sOn my regular monthly trip to River Falls yesterday I found the hos pitsf empty and no one sick. We have had very little sickness at River Falls for the past month.
 Mir Crawford has just completed re- modelling the white cells, and 1t helps the looks of the prison as well as com fort for the men.
 Menu For Supper
 'SThe menu for supper was as fol- lows: String beans and pork meat, fried okra. boiled Irish potatoes, corn bread. Georgia cane syrup and light bread. For breakfast they had Georgia cane syrup, hot biscuit, rice, fried ham and gravy.
 s'AIr. Crawford has a super-abun- dance of vegetables on hand and his garden has been extra fine.
 .sThe article which appeared in one of the afternoon papers is false. The men who wrote this article are the same ones that we moved from Kilby prison after the publication of similar letter You remember, we were forced to move these men from Kilby on ac- count of the other prisoners resenting the publication of that article. If a similar condition arises at River Falls, l guess we will have to ship them again.

|BRITISHER SEES RACIAL CONFLICT
Sir Valentine ChirOI Opens Institute Of Pol
 itics At Williams


 WILLIAAfST0WN, Mass, Aug. 1. Unless some way is found to peace ful adjustment of relations between the. Occident and the Orient the world will be plunged into a deadly racial con- flict, said Sir Valentine Chirol today in the first lecture of this years Institute of Politics at Williams college.
 Sir Valentine for many years was director of the foreign department of the London Times and member of the Royal commission on the Indian public services. His lecture was the first of a series on eastern and near eastern ques- tions.
 The reawakening of the Orient, he said, twas direct chalelnge to western supremacy, intellectual and spiritual, as well as economic. It assumes a different shade in different countries but there is one feature common to all. They belong to many different races and have different religious and social problems, but they are all united in common resentment of the white mans assumption of superiority"
 Speaking specifically of Turkey, he said ::
 Hostility to all foreigners has never been so deliberately and insolently dis played as it is today
