Lit. innlion ultimately lost him practically till his possessions, nnd what remain ed wan completely dissipnled in tho Sijn Francisco firt of 1U01. Ills rajrchlcid CXtintts Voylo then went lo Berkeley and made IiIh home at the Pacific. Thco logical rteminnry, where his worth re ceived recognition, tlioucli mnny of Iuh conclusions did not- lie organiz ed n branch of the American Society for Psychical KcKcnrch, of which Professor James llyslop of Columbia university wns one of the chief dirce tors. Voylo WR,thc Hcrkcley presi dent. Lending n party of members, livurini "psychical compusscs," Mr. Voylo reported tho finding of ei- dcnccH of a buried city beneath the university campus. The lines of this, marked by an nit- cient peoplo with radium deposits, Voylo claimed to him traced in re cent years. He used his compass for other purposes, locating whnt he thought toMi'c tin ancfenl jfoM dcpo--it atop tho Berkeley crest of hills, nnd in various parts of the city s)ots be neath which he believed was a supply of wntcr. Never Received ItocoRnillon In none of Ins pursuits did Voyle xecehc recognition or assistance from orthodox scientists, Itc tried at times to excite the imaduntiou of University of California savants in his theories, but without avail. Ilu maintained, despite these discourage incuts, an abiding faith in his work, which he carried with him to his Kmve. Not&ithstnridln;; Voyle's vain ef forts to secure recognition, he hnd scientific training that made him not n haphazard invcfttigntor. He wns n metallurgist of ability; in times past had practiced at this work. Ho was learned as well in mineralogy nnd ge ology; he had devoted year of study to electricity. BLOW THAT MADE WILLARD CHAMPION OF THE WORLD IMP OEM) 2-JM mm iiunvb uni FOR JESS W L L AD IMS E INVENTS NEW FISH BAIT Moso Jlarkdiill, champion bail fis.li crmaii of Mcdford, has invented a bait by which ho expects to break nil t -records this year in Hear creek. Moso Jinn a new breed or fislung worms, dud ho'u ready, hast fall Moso fill ed a big box, with rich dirt and caught half n bushel or so of fat worms. Then bo look about four dozen old rubber .ovorblfoct.and two old auto mobile tires from Old Doc Yak and ground them up fine in the hay cut ter and mixed them with tho dirt in tho box. Now tho worms hnvo entcn all tho rubber am sonio of them will.htietch eluht inches nnd simp like a rubber baud. Moso don't reckon tho suck ers can pull them off tho hooks at all. If a fish does manago to pull tho worm off the hook it will snap .so hard nnd hit tho fish on the noso and stun it, so Moso can catch it with his hands.. Jess Willnrd's terrilic rc'ht-liuud smash that laid n champion cold wns tho good, old-fusliioncd wallop to the jnw a blow that paralyzes the nerves back of the head and 'bring on unconsciousness. Willaid left wi b n left lo John Min's jaw, then followed with the powerful right that caught Jack on the point of the jaw nnd sent him senseless. The first punch undoubt edly destroyed the ten-eness of the muscles of the jaw nnd tore nptul Johnson's clenched teeth, leaving his jaw loose nnd in easy position for a knockout. Next to the solar plexus punch the blow on the jnw is the most sure knockout, the one best bet of mod ern-day juigilists. A blow nt this wint, if skillfully delivered under proper conditions, will result in n knockout in absolutely cverv case. The cause of the knockout by a wnllop on the jnw is temporary par alysis of the plexus, or nerve center, lying under the car and behind the anejo of the jnw. This center is called the superior cervical ganglion nnd is closely nt tached to two other nerve- centers, the middle cervical and tho inferior cervical. The principal reason why most champions hnve massive jaws is be-, cause only those who hnve been nblc to keep the teeth set so firmly that blows upon the chin and jaw could not loosen their grip could hope to reach the lop of the division. A straight blow uon the"cnd of a firmly set chin will seldom do nn damage to the corneal, but if the jaw bo ooc or IianiriiiL'. or if the teeth be not firmly gripped, espccinllv id the punch be given not directly nnd glances to ono side, then the blow- will drive bpgkjmc .end of the lower jaw bones against tho cervical nerve centers nnd in fonr cases out of five there is n knockout. The same result is attained bv a blow landed nt the tingle of tho jnw. This is the undcr-thc-enr blow of the old-time pugilists. A favorite plan of boxers is to hammer an opponent over the kid neys, the liver or the henrt until from fatigue or sudden shock he drois bi- jnw. I lien one little glancing blow lauding on the end of Ins chin scores u knockout. MEDFORD COLLEGE NOTES NOTICK.
