If you are not convinced, read the article, just drop in and see for yourself.

Bureau of The Freeman, 1337 Wallach
Place, N. W., Washington, D. C.)
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 1—The reigning sensation of the week is the resignation of Col. Henry Lincoln of the District of Columbia. Col. Johnson makes no secret of the fact that the action was suggested by the president and over, his term logically ending May 14, and that, in giving that he is highly appreciative of the osity of the chief executive in paying personal compliment of allowing him to work, he says the place is a political one and that it belongs naturally to the Democrat. Johnson as made an enviable record during his four years of service and goes out with flying colors. He is one of the leaders of the Institute of Ann Arbor, and throughout his official career has maintained a clientele that insures an excellent practice at once. Col. Johnson will have offices both here and in Atlanta, Ga., and he and his handsome home at 15th and S. Green northwest, at least until the two Johnson boys, the idols of his eye, complete the Colonel's canvass for Grand Master of the G. U. of O. F. Goersmith, friends are of the opinion that the surreptitious ship simply means that he will have opportunity of giving more of his valuation, and would have been possible under the situations that have existed. They regard his "calling and election sure."
Who Will Be Col. Johnson's Successor?
Emmett J. Scott in Town.
Mr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee Institute and 'right-hand man' for the institute, spent Tuesday in the city circulating among his host of friends and looking with his great scholars matters connected with his great scholars and is carrying the picture of health and is carrying his manifold duties as easily as a genius. He is the most ostentatious does Mr. Scott attend to his work that those who do not know him are not aware of the tremendous load of responsibility that he takes on and disposes of every day of his life. He stopped over enroute to New York to attend the annual session of the trustees of the Jeanes Educational Fund, the Keegee Institute, the Keegee Institute, the annual session of the trustees of Fisk University and other meetings that have to do with the annual welfare of the Negro in the South.
Mr. Scott says the outlook is bright for a monster meeting of the National Baseball Hall of Fame in August. The great Southwest is in a fever of anticipation of the event that should show the commercial spirit of that state, and it will be far before. In all probability steps will be taken to invite the National League from "all over" are eager to get chance to come to the nation's capital at a time when they will be able to play in the constructive forces of this continent. Mr. Scott likes Washington and a movement looking to a visit of the league in 1915 will have his earnest cooperation.
Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson for Grand
Masters.
From every section of the country Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson is receiveliess of Grand Master of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. The election will take place at the next meeting in Boston in the second week in September. Col. Johnson will have at his back the solid delegation of the Republican Party. He will have many votes from states like New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Missouri, Virginia, and the Carolinas, and a

Judge Robert H. Terrell, desiring the "rest" that comes of a change of the court, has been around the circle," delivering a number of interesting and entertaining articles, and tended from Boston to Cincinnati, and included stops at Philadelphia, New York City, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Berlin, Indianapolis and other metropolitan cities. At Boston he attended the reunion of his class at Harvard and he body instituted a New York his reception, under the auspices of the Y. M. C.

The above is a fair likeness of Mrs. Pope-Turnbo, America's foremost Negro business woman. Thirteen years ago this little woman established her business in a two-room flat of meager furnishings, then began the mighty effort which has made her the peer of all other Negro business women. Poro College at present consists of a thoroughly modern building of twenty-one rooms, steam heated, electric lighted and strictly sanitary throughout. Mrs. Turnbo employs twenty-five young ladies and pays out more than $250 each week in salaries. Her generosity has extended to almost every quarter of the globe. She has given largely to churches, schools and other charitable institutions. Her life is a splendid example of what thrift, industry and stability may accomplish. Her's should be a splendid inspiration to Negro manhood and womanhood throughout the civilized world.

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
Not with hot irons. But do it with Kink-no-more, the greatest hair straightening preparation on earlobes or kinkies of hair. Think about it—a preparation that you have to do to apply it on hair. Kink-no-more hair becomes straight, not to stay for one day, or one week, but to last from six to ten days. It will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not another preparation for it. It is the reward of $100 for any head of hair that Kink-no-more will not straighten. The compound it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair, but will stop it from falling out; positively rejuvenating the growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember that Kink-no-more is claimed for it or money refunded. We will send to any one on the receipt of a regular size box of Kink-no-more, or money order or exchanged money order. Write today for special terms. Inclose 2-cent stamp for reply. Agents wanted everywhere. Address SheLan, Springwood Avenue, sharyn N. J.

GEORGE L. KNOX,
PUBLISHER AND MANAGING EDITOR.
ELWOOD C. KNOX.
With our half-day rains, such as we have been enjoying in the recent days, we have a fair imitation of the tropics, and which is in interest of the bumper crops already advertised.
Those who have been skeptical about the Colonel's popularity have a thought coming. We are not in for his presidential succession aspirations, if he has any, but we are willing to vote him, Theedore Roosevelt, what he is today—the most prominent figure in the affairs of men.
It is not necessary to shoot up the town to be patriotic. We are all glad enough that we are a great, free and independent nation, and all that; but when manifesting joy we would do just as well to eliminate the sacrifice phase. Of course we will all die some day, but what's the use of having our passing charged up to Fourth of July festivities. How frivolous such an inscription would appear if seen on a tomb-stone.
The Paris kids, the street gamins, were for Johnson. They took their position at the entrance of the Velodrome D'Hiver, awaiting his pugilistic highness, yelling, "Vive le Nigger." It was their expression of endearment. In America this form of endearment would not be very much liked. Colored people don't like even the word Negro, not to speak of "Nigger." But we take the intent, not the deed, as it concerns the Parisian fellows.
Vice-President Marshall will have an automobile furnished him after all. A Washington dispatch of June 30, had this:
"After days of parliamentary wrangling both Houses of Congress today agreed to appropriate for automobiles for Vice-President Marshall and Speaker Clark. Each will have a car costing $4,500."
A few days ago the move met defeat by a single vote. Guess they must have been third degreein' Mr. Marshall.
Jack Johnson, he's the man. He did it once more, and he can do it again. He can do it again provided he is not too long about it. Time and the assaults of younger men will bring him down. His work has been so greatly superior to anything known in physical endeavor that his most stubbornly relentless enemies have come in. In his last fight he showed no sign of weariness at wearing the title. He merely acted on the defensive. What's in that human dreadnought will never be known. And because those do not live that can put him to the utmost test.
Secretary Daniel's order banishing intoxicants from the navy, went into effect July 1. It not only abolished the traditional "wine mess" of the officers, but bars all alcoholic liquors from every ship and shore station of the navy. Tobacco and liquor have been for so long a part of the navy that they were thought necessities. And perhaps it was that way before this day of great ships that are nearly as stable as houses in the city, that much of the supposed hardship has been eliminated. Before a sailor's life was such a hard one that no reasonable request was refused.
Elsewhere in this issue will be seen a note from Dr. Booker T. Washington, calling attention to the growing importance of agriculture as business, and the opportunity for engaging in it. In fact the head of Tuskegee has always dwelt fondly on this theme. He long since saw vast opportunities for the Negroes who have had a poor show to enter largely into other walks of life. The agricultural man's brawn and brain are the greater capital, and because of the return owing to the proper use of them. In fact, it seems an economy of heaven in that the soil is ever ready to act for the poorest, the humblest. The color question cannot come in. As Doctor Washington says, get what is wanted. The slavish theory is going, and men are bravely entering the work, knowing the end from the very beginning. Failure is impossible when brawn and sense are rightly applied. The schools are teaching the sense. We have the brawn. It is the life—for some of us as it is for some of every people.
ANOTHER JOB OF PACIFICATION.
President Wilson has another job of peace making on hand. On June 26 President Bordas of Santo Domingo, bombarded the rebel city Puerta Plata. While in the operation, the assaulting guns were silenced by fire from the main battery of the American gunboat Machias.
Capt. Russell was sent to Dominican waters with instructions to protect Americans and other foreigners and their properties. The contending forces were warned against the use of artillery, which meant certain death to noncombatants, and promises were made that only small arms would be employed.
News of the incident came to the Navy. Department in a belated dis
patch from Capt. Russell on board the battleship South Carolina. The Machias, which carries eight four-inch guns, was sent into the inner harbor at Puerta Plata prepared for battle, after the Dominican forces had time and again violated an agreement not to use artillery in attacking the rebel forces holding the port. The captain's dispatch, dated Friday, follows:
"This afternoon about 5:30, when the Bordas artillery ashore fired shells into the city of Puerto Plata, the Machias anchored in the inner harbor and with some shots from its main battery stopped the artillery fire into the city, after which there was no further firing. We have the situation well in hand and no additional vessels either United States or foreign will be needed to prevent the bombardment of Puerta Plata. "The prompt stopping of the artillery into the city this afternoon will have a very reassuring effect upon the American and other foreigners in the city who have recently displayed great anxiety about their protection."
Complications are not expected to arise, and of course, owing to the puny republic which could not raise its finger in war, even if it cared to do so. However, we take it that the action of Captain Russell was all right, since the contending forces had been warned against the use of artillery. Great big nations, or factions, wouldn't have cared about such warning. They would have plunged right in to win at any cost.
While it is gratifying to know that many lives were saved through the action of the captain of the Machias, yet one can not help being impressed with the event which naturally leads to the thought of the quality of men, even the quality of governments. It would be happily eventful if some superior (or interwar) forces before they were destructive. It would be a fine thing if some peace mediator, commission, or tribunal with the utmost power and authority was sitting, and which could order the nations around as Captain Russell did. This is the dream of Andrew Carnegie, and more. He would refer and submit and debate, hoping a higher wisdom than goes ordinarily to prevail in having men legislate peace.
Captain Russell's idea is all right, but he should not pick his people.
WEST VIRGINIA'S PROHIBITION LAW
Becomes Effective, Three Murders
Marking Final Day of Liquor
Traffic—1,200 Bars Closed.
CHARLESTON, W. Va., June 30.
With the toiling of June late
in the state, West Virginia
at midnight entered the column of
prohibition states.
The last day the licensed sale of in-
flicted beclouded by five sudden
deaths. One man was murdered in a
Charleston saloon and robbed of ninety
centre. Maryland county had the bloodiest record as four deaths occurred there.
Henry Carlton and Henry Maynard,
deputy constables, attempt to arrest
the robber and had to revolver in a saloon at Naugatuck, and in the shooting which followed Carlton and his revolver in wounds later. Aaron Meredith and Thomas Doran, miners, were cremated when their cabin at Rose Siding was
murdered. A man men had laid in quantities of liquor and accidentally set fire to their cabin.
The Yost prohibition law, which became effective at midnight, closes the streets and closes twelve breweries and one distillery; throws 3,000 men out of emigration and closes counties, towns and states almost $1,000,000. It is one of the most drastic prohibition measures ever put into and contains the following provisions: Spirituous liquors can be made and medicinal and sacramental purposes. Repeated illegal selling of liquor prohibited by confinement in the penitentiary.
Close recording and tabulating of interstate liquor shipments. For all organizations as well as individuals. Demonstrations planned by antiterror organization were postponed because the fear of public displays might bring on trouble.
The law was indorsed by a majority vote of 91.886 in November, 1912.

Black Sox Win.
Athletics Shut Out.
The second game was a pitcher's battle between Martin, of the Athletics, and Swift, of the Swifts. This game was a thriller. Both clubs were in superb condition, both played snappy ball and the large bounce throughout. The Swifts supported Brannon as they never did before, and Brannon pitched as he never did before. Both teams had four hits. The work of Martin was of the glitte variety, too, but his pitches were the necessary bingles. The Athletics were minus their shortstop, Downs having gone to West Baden. His stellar pitching to complete secured seven hits and made two errors. Vaughn's throw to second in an attempt to complete it was the only override by the Athletics. It cost a run in the seventh session, neither club having scored up to this level. The champions and has the honor of pitching the first shutout game of the season. Darkness ended the game in innings. The score by innings:

LOUISVILLE WHITE SOX.
Score 11 to 10—Heavy Hitting, Weird Decisions and Errors Feature.
(By J. H. Wright.)
LOUISVILLE, Ky.—(Special)—Sunday being an ideal day for baseball, a large team of young players in the Bank Park expecting to see a good game, but was somewhat disappointed. Manager Taylor, having a more impatient Stars and naturally wanting to please the home bugs, left a part of the regulars home and brought over some subs. The A. B. Cs. started the A. B. Cs. in the first spasm. Turner and "Steel Arm Taylor singled, moved up on an opponent when Leach singled, Powell saconed, Warfield walked and scored when Turner knocked a two-bagger. The Sox added two in the fourth on Rogers' two errors, Johnson's wild chuck and Warfield walked and scored when Watson, the big three. By scoring 5 more runs on Warfield's two errors, Johnson's wild chuck and Watson, the big three. By daring base running and some timely bingles by Taylor, Bartlett and Burk in the seventh, the A. B. Cs. annexed three runs.

JOHNSON STILL CHAMPION!
Defeats Frank Moran in Twenty Round Bout in Paris— Pittsburger Fought Bravely On, but Had no Show Last Rounds Considered Tame—Different Viewpoints of the Struggle for the Mastery.
the world by this time, is very well acquainted with what happened at Paris when, June 27, the fight was extremely important, and the fight can be notwithstanding the difference, to belittle it. This fact, the Paris fight, lacks the political intermediates that show it at Reno. Immediately the fight, during the fight and immediately after it, may so appear, a natural pigeon, or perhaps a natural pigeon, or perhaps anything that has hapened on the Western hemisphere. The part of sport written in the part of higher civilization, and their best wit, imagination, moment in describing, which, whatever place they found, is what. Whatever language by those writers was not managed in the language was easily in management. The language was season. The course was the high dramatic and the high and the "songsters" accordingly, and sang in that key, was something psychologically pretty, the setting would not do for another.
no wonder that great and beautiful Paris felt to have the distinction of a first city, first capital, first fascination; and here, nor in Europe, as I understand it. There, they were, they were the race queen, the two great camps, standing over the principals, who were contending surely for some of the greatest waterloo Waterloo were contending in it. It was not merely a conclusion of two static gladiators; they were truly representative as Daxxus, which alone determined the fate of the nation.
The reports of the Paris fight in Paris may have been poetical enough. But the papers received on this side and published they our papers were very much different, and needless rhetoric. They told pain, unvarnished tale of war, leaving the imagination to work out the story, and one would think that the gathering of 25,000 people was with some of the numerous events to be unseen. Then those specifiers of distinction, and from so many颈 to tend point the event a gala
day in gay life, she said safely say that the audience saw the Johnson-Moran fight June 14 at Paris was the greenest day of defination that it could down before a pride event. In this respect Reno is a dimple. Sporting men traveled across the town to be present at Reno, and the were some women at the event, that such a matter of comment as the fight. Referring to those present, one re-
port here, the great amphitheatre presented a wonderful sight, for although there were some empty seats, the tiers were crowded with representatives of the single individual who was presented of hundred women in handsome gowns upraising the two pugilists as they crugged up and down the ring, feinting and dogging and slugging themselves among the those that bore names in French society as Basseur Henry D.

Johnson has no right to be discouraged, the best thing of his life when he hears the word before he speaks. The objection on this side is that it is more than a third-rate boxer. It is plain to read between the lines that Johnson was told the time. One sport observer coming to Morgan at six of the rounds as being studying the rounds, studying the rounds, Johnson must hold himself in reserve, blocked. Morgan and he seemingly could have been otherwise, if Moran really lived up to Johnson, during those twenty weeks when Frank Moran is a good man to his youth, whip his Johnson owing to Johnson cared that he was hardly that Johnson cared that he from giving whipped. That's all.
eventually the New York Times says: "Victory would have been a great American moment, an event as both the residents and the mob, although the triumphant one again. Let us be cheerful, therefore, in the nation, and give our regret that Mr. Morrison did not wish that he he would be woken up on this occasion that he would be genius have turned out to Atlantic, and as ever the great prize for congratulation that the great incident of the gay Paris season, all the on the eve of the Grand Prix, when Paris can get to all the glory any winner Johnson, and the encounter ex-merger welcome to their 10 per cent of the world, can take in.

not impel him to think of coming back this season, he go eastward. He might gladiators worth meeting in Russia or Mongolia. Cruel, ain't it? Sometimes I think we push the race question too much. I mean, the race question is done in face of such proud man's contumely. Perhaps it is not wise to reprime one sees. But why not since white pride is still strong, who print daring things see them. Just as well make the education general. He is expected back this way, because he is a great man. The old Jack Johnson was in mighty high geography June 27, 1914. And what's more, he gave a very excellent account of himself. Paris, June 27.—Jack Johnson still holds the heavyweight championship of the world. In a hard-fought battle at the end of the season, he won the Frank Moran of Pittsburg, easily on points in their twenty-round contest. Moran was game and stubborn and stood up to the challenge of the leading and made many friends. The black man's superior skill and his effective uppercutting wore down his opposition. Which at times seemed rather amateurish.
Terrific uppercuts on which Johnson battles were again brought, previous battles his younger adversary, who was unable effectively to block them. They were unable to block them, and the least expected them, and several times with such force that the Pittsburghburger was knocked down or anything that looked like a finishing blow. At the close Moran's face was bleeding from cuts on the nose and the left eye. Johnson showed no marks.
Towards the middle of the contest it appeared as if Moran would not go to battle, but he did, and kept driving. Although he landed a number of times on the Negro, his blows lacked force and were comparatively weak. He was able to land hard on his adversary, and in so doing swung wildly through space, Johnson being several feet away. Moran was able to reach the parts of rounds the Negro toyed with him, when he saw that he could do so. Toward the end Johnson had the Pittsburg burger absolutely at his mercy. Moran apparently feared that he would be finched, an chung to Johnson's body for support, since he was without success. His manner of fighting and holding in the latter part of the contest was of favourable quality, as were the tactics Johnson on several occasions, which
MORAN
brought a caution from the referee, as well as a storm of jeers from the crowd, and seemed to be seemingly did not understand the fine points of boxing, voiced their objection to infighting, but cheered any resounding harmless whacka. He was able to boast of. Moran carried the fight to the champion, who refused to lead. This aggressiveness cost Moran the fight. The Pittsburgh heavyweight was always not allowed to engage in the advice of his manager, Dan McKetrick. In the fifteenth round he moved around and engaged with the surrender, with the latter knocked and dropped his hands and invited Moran to mix it up. Moran did, and before Johnson could guard, Moran caught with a left and right before the bell rang. The bout was spilled in the last two rounds because Johnson was not trying to leave the arena. Johnson affected weariness, and Moran, weak from his own exertion, was quite satisfied to stay the third. Moran showed he could punch in the first round, when he caught Johnson with a right lead. The blow landed on him, and Johnson was wary of Moran's right thereafter, and took no chances. He boxed carefully and let Moran set the
Johnson Always Defensive.
Johnson was content to block and catch Moran coming in with a left hook flashes of his old-time cleverness by blocking and jabbing with left and right hand uppercuts, all we knew was that Moran could let Moran do the bulk of the leading. His younger opponent fell into the trap.
On points, Johnson had twelve of the twenty rounds he had taken. Moran's honors were even in the other six. Moran lost a great opportunity in the thirteenth round when he caught the ball. Johnson took the ball and made Johnson miss a vicious uppercut. Johnson, in apprehension of Moran's skill stood in the center of the court. Moran could have caught him with a straight right lead, but was too slow. So all intent on the sign was square and Moran could have caught him with a straight right lead, but was too slow. There was not a single knockdown during this game, and there anything that looked like a finishing blow. Johnson indulged in plenty of hard hitting, but Moran absorbed all the punishment he could forgue toward a disadvantage in the tenth round. He was bleeding from cuts on the nose and under the left eye, and at times he was blinded by the ball. Moran crushed nose repeatedly.
THE FREEMAN, AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER
but Moran shook his head and bored in again.
He was the symphonic of the crowd were with Moran. Every time he landed an uppercut on Johnson's face, or rammed the champion in the infighting, the crowd shot encouragement to the Pennsylvania continually. Toward the end of the fight, however, when Moran was weaken, he landed on Johnson's face, old Roman spirit of a finish fight asserted itself, and the crowd jeered Moran, and cried to Johnson to "put him out." The crowd drank dramatic Johnson had wormed down the eighteenth and nineteenth rounds with crushing blows to the jaw and stomach, and they shook hands and squared off for the finish. Johnson ripped across several stumps to hold up Moran. He reeled, stood up, and held Moran. He would at least score a knockdown. Moran would at least clinch to save himself, and tried to save the champion with body blows. Johnson in effectively to hold Moran off. At one time Moran's head was resting on the champion. Johnson swung right and left body blows and Moran came back with a few stumps, and rung with both men on their feet. Referee Carpenter immediately pronounced Johnson a winner on points and most of the verdict. Others hooted on their feet.
Supporters of the champion were deceived or the suspect had expected the fight to go the full twenty rounds. Gloom pervaded the Johnson team, and the general manager, since Moran, a former defender, had stayed twenty rounds, the impression was that he would be a defender and there would be plenty of challengers for the heavyweight title among fighters of greater strength than the pluckyiad from the league.
The Flight by Rounds.
Parls, June 27.—The account of the fight by rounds from the ring at the壁垒 by Moran, on the stomach and head. Johnson succeeded in landing and landed first to the stomach and head. Johnson succeeded in landing and Moran's jaw. They mixed it with Johnson landing on the Pittsburgh's stomach. ROUGH TWO—Moran forced the fightin' man to manage him, some hard uppercuffs to Moran in return landed hard on Moran's head. Johnson sent a light left hook to Moran, who was able to attack the arm of the fight, says the rules are those of the International Boxing Federation, which do not allow holding, and are a slight modification of the Queensberry rules. ROUGH THREE—Johnson gave Moran several terrific uppercuffs to the jaw. Johnson landed hard on Moran, who stumbled against the ropes as was common to the negro's stomach. Johnson landed a hard jolt on Moran's eye, and followed with hard knocks on the body. Johnson landed hard on Moran, who stumbled against the ropes as was common to the negro's stomach. Both led at the same time, each landing on the other's head without harm. Johnson landed on Moran's face.

ROUND NINE—Moran sent a left hook to the body while Johnson landed one on the head and several hard ones on the jaw. Moran received a left on the jaw.
ROUND TEN—The men mixed it immediately at the opening of the round. Johnson the referee told the men to break away Johnson sent one to Moran's nose. Johnson cut Moran's nose and mouth. The referee warned Johnson while the crowd hooted the Negro. Hard fighting was resumed. Johnson cut another warning for holding. Moran then sent three hard blows to the body, calculating viciously with blows to Moran's jaw.
ROUND TWELVE—Johnson succeeded in landing several uppercuts to the jaw and a straight left to the nose and also hit it hard, making him long and it did not seem that he had long. Moran cleverly dodged a hard swing to the TWELVE—Moran led, but could not land effectively while Johnson sent one to Moran's jaw, which again drew a cheer. Johnson stood back smilies and then sent a hard right to Moran's jaw.
ROUND FOURTEEN—Moran tried hard but unsuccessfully for the Negro's smile from his opponent. Moran ran into a punch on the nose and in making a futtle swing at Johnson he ran into the
ROUND FIFTEEN—Moran avoided the Negro, who stood still laughing. Moran landed hard to the Negro's face while the latter pushed him to the ropes. ROUND SIXTEEN—Johnson forced the fighting. Moran landed on the stomach and the Negro sent a left to Moran's
nose. He followed this with five more in rapid succession to the same place, and landed two straight left to the chin.
ROUND SEVENTEEN—Johnson sent a wild swing. Moran then made a wild swing. Moran then landed to the Negro's face, which seemed to make little impression on his opponent. Moran then landed to Johnson's face, which brought a cheer.
ROUND EIGHTEEN—The Negro sent one to the face, and then hard to the body.
ROUND NINETEEN—Moran went after Johnson, infighting and holding at the same time, and ever. His tactics caused adverse comment, Referee Carpenter frequently separating him.
ROUND TWENTY—The man shook hands. Each tried for a knockout, Johnson sent several hard rights to Moran's head. Moran's head rested on the Negro's chest. Moran swung wildly and will, Johnson landed and sequenced a will. Moran's head rested on the trunk ineffectively for the Negro's body. The gong then rang, and Johnson was declared the winner.
Paris, June 27—Johnson was master of the game, and Moran has his opponent a terrible beating. Moran was the gamest man Johnson ever met.
It was Moran's gameness and wonderful stamina that enabled him to last the limit of the terrible blows of the title holder.
There were approximately 35,000 spectators in the velodrome d'Hiver when the contents stepped into the ring. They were wildly cheered.
The betting was heavy until the moment the fight started. Before going the Velodrome Johnson appeared at the American bar near the house and offered to back himself without limit. He was not interested in Jim Corbett and Jim Jeffries, covered $1,000 of the Negro's money. This made Johnson look worried. The wager was made even money. He asked you to figure it out, Mr. Brady," said Johnson. "I know you are a pretty wise fighting man, and would like to fight with me. However, I guess I can use your money as well as anybody's, thanks."
The great amphitheater presented a wonderful sight, for although there were some of the tiers we were crowded with representatives of the other side. The singular spectacle was presented of several women in handsome plackings, two pups they struggled up and down the ring, feline and dodging and hammering each other. Among the women were those who worked as Baroness Henry De Rothchild, the younger Duchess d'Uzes, Countess Maria de Friesen, Princess of Lucegen, the Duchess de Rohan and the Princess Morouzieff.
Johnson's white wife occupied a prominent position, wearing as many diamonds as most of the great ladies. She cried often, frightened by the hit him Daddy". "Come along Pop." "Now then Jack, tell him have another."
Gloveed hands joined in the applause that rang through the building as the two gladiators struggled for the supremacy.
Johnson slept 11 hours last night. After being massaged this morning he ate four baked potatoes, bread, and finished his meal with a dish of iced strawberries. For lunch he had a plain pound cake. He lives usually in a home where he vegetates. This morning he have found cake an excellent substitute for roast meat. To me it is more nourishing and strength-building than meat, and agrees better with my diet. He also has a day consisted of roast chicken and fresh vegetables, which he ate at 5, or a little over five hours before entering the ring. He is the greater part of the day leisurely.
Moran slept soundly for ten hours in his training quarters. His breakfast was two boiled eggs and rolls, after which he went for a morning walk. He was in high spirits, especially when he found in today's kitchen a large piece of Clancy, of Pittsburg, saying, "The black boy is ready to pick."
There was plenty of hard hitting on the part of Johnson, but not a single knockdown or anything that looked like a finish from outs on the nose under the left. Johnson showed no marks. Toward the end of the fight the crowd jeered a good deal at some of the tacus of Moran, but being frequently on Johnson to save himself.
Tom Kennedy, Wilkie Lewis and George Considine were in Moran's corner. Tom Wannagann and several Negro trainers were in timekeeper, were in Johnson's corner.
The crowd at the arena was in full dress, as Parisians regarded the match in the same way as they would an important night at the opera. A great many women were present. Among the prominent performers was Travis Browne, Duke Louis D'Uzes, the Premier Duke and Peer of France and former Premier Louis Barthou.
Terrific uppercuts, on which Johnson had relied in many of his previous battles, were again brought into play on his knees. They were tivally to block them. They were repeatedly sent to Moran's jaw when he least expected them, and several times with wabbling. Moran's face was bleeding from cuts on the nose and under the left cheek. The middle of the contest it appeared as if Moran would not go the 20 rounds, but he showed courage and kept driving. Although he landed a number of times on the Negro, his blow lacked force.
Moran took his punishment well, and during parts of rounds the Negro toyed with the saw that he could do so without danger.
Toward the end Johnson had the Pittburger absolutely at his mercy. Moran apparently feared he would be amphibious and would be able to try at the same time to land, but without success. His manner of fighting and holding in the latter part of the contest was the cause of unfavorable comment.
Johnson has made plans for a tour of Europe. The course he will include visits to London and to Moscow, and he says he will later return to the United States.
Before the fight Moran stated that whether he won or lost he expected to be battered. He said he intended to return to Europe for a quiet rest after the fight. Should he be the winner he will pay a visit to Rome.
Spencer Eddy, former American minister to Argentina, sat near the ringside. Three feet behind him sat the Duke of Wellington for a quiet rest the fight. Should he be the winner he will pay a visit to Rome.

The check for $30,000 made out in February, when the contract for the fight was signed, the photographer and then deposited in the Celtic Lvivonnais to be handed to Mrs. Johnson at noon. The depositions of the colored fighter as far as could be ascertained. When questioned about the check, Johnson said he received $30,000 win, lose or draw." This sum is in addition to the $5,000 paid to Johnson for his training expenses at the time articles were signed.
Dan McKettrick, manager of Moran, and the coach promoted of the match, evaded all inquiries as to what Moran's percentage was to be in the case he won, but it was generated a guarantee of $5,000 win, draw or lose.
The above notes were cabled to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Milburn Saylor, the Indianapolis lightweight, who has created quite a furore in Australian ring circles with his "knock 'em out" cided to rebound in Australia until fall. He brought this city last night that Manager Ray Brougn has arranged
several profitable looking bouts for baxter and the inference is that boxing has been the sport of the waters than in America. Bronson and Warner have been in Australia since late last year and their invasion has been very successful.
Wagner Bros. Bon Bon Kids champion colored base ball team of last year, won 18 games in games. Like to hear from all managers who have got a team that plays in the 130 pound Gaynor theater, Tuesday night, by staging devine in the second round. He received a one carab diamond ring, the prize offered, amid the plaudits of the house.
Gunboat Smith and Georges Carpenter will meet at the Olympia in July 18. Both men have posted $1000 for money. They are now training for the international "hope."
Johnson has agreed to fight Sam Langhorne. This battle he will receive $80,000, his draw, and in addition will be given 50 per cent of moving picture receipts.
Velodrome d'Hiver, Paris—Johnson made his escape arrest for speeding as he was being taken into the Velodrome in an automobile. The champion was detained by the police. He proceed after being given a warning. "Kiss me, I will win," said Moran. "Kiss Tappe, richly gowned, planted a kiss on his lips. Referee Carpentier, a witness, was not influenced by this exhibition." Jack Gleason, who promoted the Johnson-Jefferson years ago, said that the fight resulted just as he expected. "Johnson is a man of years ago, and was more than qualified to offset the fact that Moran's caliber. I knew he would save carefully and easily without the view of the fact that his physical condition might not be as strong now as he was ago. Johnson knew this match would not easy one for him when he made it."
Hugh McIntosh, the Australian promoter who staged the Johnson-Burns game, said Johnson won his title, was not surprised. "He came. 'I felt sure that Moran's youth was not surprised, he will give the champion a battle. It is sure that he was able to stay the limit.' He has Johnson has 'gone back' physically, he has Johnson's ability to win his wonderful cleverness as a defensive player. His skill in defensive boxing is far greater than that of the heavyweights we have today."

THE LEWIS-CLAY WEDDING
The wedding bee has been buzzing about in this city, Indianapolis, at an unusual rate this June. June is the month for our most beautiful days to exclaim: "What is so rare as a day in June?" And long before he wrote so aptly concerning the month, they were giving us the most beautiful gested out of the very fitness of things. Then lovely womanhood stands at its threshold, just beyond that half-blown pouting stage—it's "May" as the roses, when it is at its "June." O Life's May, O half-blown rose, Keep compact with the waxing moon, Ere long its full orbed beauty disclose, Nor are Rose will have reached their June.
