SEATTLE, November 19-His health
broken by a strenuous and unsuccessful
campaign for reelection, United States
Senator Wesley l.. Jones, chairman OF
the important Appropriations Commit
tee, died of a heart ailment in a Seat
tie sanitarium today.
The 69-year-old Senator had entered
the sanitarium 10 days ago to recover
from the fatigue of his political fight
against Homer T. Bone. Tacoma DEM
ocrat, hoping to leave within two weeks
for the National Capital.
But he had not been in robust health
since he underwent series OF opera

the campaign aggravated heart al
Fiction of long standing. He died
quietly at 2 am. with his son and
daughter-Harry B. Jones' Seattle at
torney, and Mrs. Arthur Coffin of va
kima. Wash-at his bedside.
Senator Jones' defeat by Bone ended
his record of 33 years of continuous
service in Congress. At the time Of
his death he was Republican whip and
third ranking member of his party in
the Senate.
He was recently described by his old
schoolmate, Senator William E. Borah
of Idaho, as "one of the most valuable,
conscientious and useful members of
the United States Senate"
Legislation sponsored by the veteran
Senator included the so-called Jones
five and ten" liquor enforcement law
the national shipping act, the Federal
water power and Panama Canal acts.
The first of his long line of success
full political fights was in 1898 against
James Hamilton Lewis, then Repre-
sentative from Washington and now
Senator from Illinois. Jones entered
the House of Representatives in 1899,
where he served until 1909, when he
went to the Senate as the first Senator
to be chosen in Washington by popular
vote.

N YEW YORK, December 6.-Amid
nj scene of confusion, Ed
(Strangler) Lewis retained his
title claim last night in Mad

the challenger. was disqualified at the
end of 80 minutes and SIS seconds for

slugging his opponent and the burly
figure of a wrestler, dressed and wait

take Lewis part. They got this man,
John Evko, out of the ring, then Steele,
who had been warned by Eddie Forbes,
the referee, deliberately punched Lewis
in the face again and was disqualified.
Fer 10 minutes the Garden was in a
tumult of excitement. Fights started
among the spectators and the police
were busy keeping order.
Lewis and Steele and Evko were or
dered to appear before the Athletic
Commission this afternoon.
The crowd was outraged. A fight
started in an aisle A woman tainted.
And the walls reverberated to the pro-
longed booS of the crowd.

many clubs closing shop and others de-

Golf Analysed
by JOE GLASS

WHEN the ball Is partly buried
w in bunker sand, an explosion
shot Is demanded. When the
ball has clean lie, but is very
close to an abrupt high bank, it still
is well to blast 1t out. But, II the
lie is clean, the ball is not too near
a bank, and the bank does not offer
too much difficulty, chip shot can
be tried.
A chip shot from sand is very
hard shot to execute. But once
mastered, 1t is stroke saver, because
it gives the player a much better
chance for getting dead to the pin
than does the blast. Walter Hagen
proved both these statements in the
last open chapionship at Fresh
Meadow. On one hole he tried
