every one who so desires may have
more and better fishing" he said
In .he sports fishery OF our interior
waters the bureau enters ip.o restock-
ing on q larger scale than 1t does the
commercial fishery. Hence, he said,
the bureau maintains so hatcheries
for the purpose Of restocking streams
or lakes which are depleted or ex-
hausted.
1T is the constant endeavor OF
these hatcheries to release larger,
stronger fish-fish that will have the
very best chance of growing to ma
turtty The scientist is constantly at
work trying to improve fish through
q study of diets, selective breeding
and many other methods.
NEIITH our changing industrial
" methods, over the country,
many conditions come about
that affect the habitat Of our fishes.
Often waters become unsuitable for
To restore these waters TO their
natural state is a problem that con-
fronts the bureau more and more.
How does the bureau learn Of
threatened fisheries? 1t annually
takes a census Of the commercial fish
cries. 1t cannot actually count each
fish in the sea or lake, but knowing
the number caught and the effort ex-
pended in getting them, it can esti-
mate the number of fish actually
present.
The bureau. however does not cease
its efforts when it has restored a
fishery and has obtained the necessary
balance for it TO maintain itself. Con-
servation means far more than that.
1t means, as well, a wise full use Of
the product taken. The bureau, there
fore. is continually seeking new uses
for these fishery products, the coun-
try's primary source Of yitamin D,
and complete usage of all waste
products. 1t hopes that every particle
of fish will be utilized. Today even
the scales and fins Of some fish are
used, and the waste flesh Is converted
into animal feedstuff The nearer we
can approach such complete usage for
all fishes. the nearer we are to true
conservation. Whole industries must
be surveyed to eliminate wastes.
Storage, refrigeration, handling, ship
ping, wholesaling and retailing. all
must be carefully checked to present
the consumer with a better. freSher

Delivers Mighty Sock.

THE next month, the defeated
Stanyard fought Ward, at Coin
brook and, in the third round,
got a blow on his right cheek that
broke his jaw bone. We never wit
messed a severer blow and one better
thrown"
But, in the fifth, "he fairly held
Ward up, struck him severe blow,
and threw him down on the stage
with great violence"
In the tenth, "Stanyard received
four blows on his broken jaw and the
round finished by their coming down
together without any manifest superb
ority to either" Stanyard gave up
after they had fought 13 minutes.
In 1895, when "Corby. an Irishman,
and Haines, the West of England
Champion" fought four rounds on
Wimbledon Common, the Sporting
Magazine dismissed the affair with the
comment: Perhaps it may be noted
as proof Of the degeneracy of the age
that there was no person of rank
present and the only person of dis
t1nction visible was Mr.. j. the acter.'
That same Summer it records, as a
sporting event, "a severe battle be-
tween the landlord of a public house
in oxford street and a coachman in
consequence of some dispute over q
pint of beer: They adjourned into a
neighboring stable yard attended by a
great concourse of friends and am
ateurs."
Also recorded among the bouts of
the year was that between "a reverend
Cheshire rector coming home drunk
and farm boy"
There were some hard fights, as
when "Herlook, a farmer of Blather-
wick, and Boone, tailor, of Gretton
fought desperate battle. After an
hour and not less than 80 fair knock
down blows, victory was declared in
favor OF the Knight Of the Thimble. I"

was that at Beadon Well, in Kent, be-

Fights End in Death.

n ARE-FISTED prizefghts ended
n surprisingly often in the death
Of one or both fighters, and this
resulted In constant demand for
their suppression. The Sporting
Magazine recounts many instances.
Thus, on Wednesday, May II, 1900, "a
most desperate and fatal battle was
fought In the field opposite the Ele-
phant, Newington Butts, between a
person Of the name Of Collins, who
was q shorer at Billingsgate, and an
Irish fisherman. A trifling dispute
at the gate in the early part of the
morning led to the conflict. After a
very obstinate contest which lasted /
hour and 20 minutes, Collins received
an unfortunate blow on the jugular
vein which instantly ended his exist
ence, leaving a wife and four children.
The fisherman had likewise received
so many severe blows that he was
taken of the field in state in in
sensibility and died shortly after"
And, a few days later, "Mr. Ward,
miller Of Uppingham, in Rutland, lost
his life by fighting with a brother
miller. They agreed to meet half
way between the two mills to decide
the quarrel and fought above an hour,
during which they stopped several
times to drink each others health,
until at length Ward was obliged to
give in and died from the bruises
he had received. His opponent lies
dangerously ILL.,
On october 20, 1902, "a battle was
fought at Great Ponton between B.
Dickinson, the fighting tailor, and S.
Houghton, horsebreaker of Stroxton
The latter was upward of 10 years
of age and received so many injuries
in the conflict that he died shortly
after. The tailor, though scientific
boxer and an athletic man, was
obliged to be carried from the ground"

RIZE FIGHTING seems to have
- fallen into considerable disre-
| pthe in England after its brief

burst Of popularity.
In most towns it was prohibited.
Fights had to be staged surreptitiously
in fields and pastures, although it may
be presumed that local authorities
usually winked at the practice. With
the decline Of Mendoza, 1t had no dis
tinguished followers
Fighting became largely q sport Of
blacksmiths, hostlers, coachmen and
thugs. The Sporting Magazine records
no battles Of national interest. All
were local affairs and set-tos behind
stables to settle private quarrels were
recorded gravely as sporting events.
The nineties are notable for a good
many curious fights between girls, men
without arms, etc.
In 1892 there was a hard-fought
battle between Stanyard from Bir-
mingham and Gambold. the Irishman,
for 100 guineas. 1T was a most ex-
cellent and severe battle, and exhibited
as great display of knowledge Of the
art as was ever known on the stage Of
this or any other kingdom. The con-
testants met 10 times in rs minutes
before Gambold knocked Stanyard
down and retired from the ring"

Bucks Training More Impressive.
DUCK finished his training Satur-
u urday a couple of hours after
Dudas and was far more i'm
pressive than his foe, despite Steve's
new left hook Everett seems to be
In q savage mood, and his gymnasium
workouts took on more Of the aspect
of the real MCCOY. He and Marty
Gallagher, local heavy, have been fir
ing away in earnest for more than a
week, while Jimmy Erwin and Jim
Mcnamara, their respective managers,
turned pale at the unwelcome prospect
of cut eye or busted hand.
A new heavyweight belonging to
the Harry Groves stable was f1attened
thrice in brief workout with Ever
EFT and had to be toted from the ring.
Buck is right.
Both the youngsters have plenty of
incentive to win this one. Dudas, ably
plugged by Mccartney, is wanted in
Madison Square Garden for return
bout with Abe Feldman, who recently
was awarded an unpopular decision.
The high muck-a-mucks of fistiana
are looking to Dudas to figure prom
inently in the heavyweight division
next year. Everett, who turned in

Duduas, 21-year-old Hungarian, who

The New Jersey boy, a protege Of
Billy McCarney, has been to the post
twice in Washington. In his first
appearance last Summer he outpoint-
ed George Pavlick of Cleveland and
later returned to knock out Wild
Matthews of Baltimore in two rounds
last August. bobbing, weaving type

short wallop in his right hand. Now,
according to those who watched him

hook. He was burying the hook into

three years of professional fisticuffing,

he failed to live up to expectations,

TWO LOCAL BILLS
TO BE REPORTED
Measures on Broadening Commis.
sioners' Powers and Fore.
closures Favored.

The bill to broaden powers of the
Commissioners in making municipal
regulations, and the new method of
mortgage foreclosure were ordered
favorably reported by the Senate Dis
trict Committee late yesterday.
Chairman King announced that
Senator McCarran, Democrat, of
Nevada, is authorized to report the
bill increasing the authority of the
city heads. as soon as he prepared
minor amendments. one Of which
would require public hearings on pro-
posed regulations.
The committee sidetracked a bill
by Senator Thompson. Democrat. of
Nebraska, which would have given
juries in the District discretion to
recommend life imprisonment or elec-
trocution in murder cases.
The committee also postponed &C
ton on two amendments to the Dis
trict liquor law, one to allow the is
suance of licenses to non-conforming-
use stores as defined by the coming
law, and the other to allow chain
stores to obtain licenses for more than
one of their establishments. A non-
conforming use is a store that existed
in q residential area before it was
zoned residential.
The bill to broaden the powers of
the Commissioners is intended to re-
lieve Congress of the necessity of con-
sidering small local measures each
year, by authorizing the Commission
ers to promulgate regulations. even
on subjects regarding which Congress
has enacted specific legislation.

new TRIAL ORDERED
IN CORONER SUIT
$780, 900 Case Against Macdonald
Based on Removal of Trans
posed Heart.

A new trial In the suit to recover
$4,000 damages from District Coroner
A. Magruder Macdonald for the
alleged removal of the transposed
heart of Michael CalIas during an
autopsy, was ordered late yesterday by
Justice F. Dickinson Let's in District
Supreme Court.
The original suit was brought by the
boys father and mother, George M.
and Cleopatra Callas, who claimed
they suffered mental anguish when
they discovered, some time after the
burial according to the rites of the
Greek Church. that the body had been
inferred without heart.
The boy died under such circum-
stances that DR.. Macdonald believed
an autopsy necessary. 1t developed
vital organs were transposed.
Later the parents were told the
heart had been removed and not re-
turned. The body was exhumed, and
the suit followed.
Justice Let's said he directed
verdict for the defendant in the first
trial January 81, on the ground that
the father was dead and only he had
a right to the body. He later learned,
he said, that the father was living
when the suit was filed. and conse-
quently was in position to suffer
mental anguish by virtue OF the heart
removal.
