KING WIN H
SOUZA IN BEST
Tho main event botween Trench
King of Sacramento and Joe Souxa of
Klamath Kail wa the rodoemlng
feature of a badly demoralized card
at tho
Houston opera nouso last
night.
Two of the other scheduled
scrap failed 'to materialize and the
Rlackburn-Moore match ended early
In tho first round when Moore scored
a knockout.
nut the final bout, according to
fans, was great battle, brute
strength on Soma's part against sci
ence, with science the winner. King,
In the opinion of woll posted follow
ers of the ring game, showed more
speed and skill than any fighter who
has yet appeared In the local ring.
Houta put up a splendid fight and
wa aggressive from the Start but
King managed to escape his swiftest
blows. The majority of the crowd
was with Souza until the last two
rounds, when ho lost control of his
temper and resorted to "butting" tac
tics, but this was probably do to hls
liclng dazed tiy hi opponent's on
sliught and tho blood from his faco
jn,nc ,, , M,ont wnoro no
...,,..,., ,......
was unablo to do otherwise
Following In the fight by rcunds
us seen from tho press lioxj
Round 1 lloth men cautious;
Souza swung hard, but could not land
heavy blow. King showed cleverness
and lightning speed.
Round 2 .King's round; ho placed
two hard body blows on Souza and
put over sororal light Jabs to faco
that angered his opponent
Round 3 A fast round, slightly In
favor of Souza, who got In two hard
Jabs on King's JaW, but latter was not
floored.
Round 4 Opened furiously. King
had Souza against ropes. Much
clinching, and soma hitting in
clinches, ni In previous rounds.
Round C King's speed and light
Jabs to faco angered 8ouza, who ap
peared to lose his, temper and swung
wildly. Up to this tlmo Souza had
mndo about a dozen heavy "knock
out" swings 'Ot King, but nono of
them connected.
Round G Souza, as from tho first,
continued to force tho fight, but be
gan to appear tired and worried.
Face bloody, from King's Jabs.
Round 7 Souxa stilt trying for
knockout, King still trying to wear
his man out. Round about equal
honors.
Round 8 Most furious. King
changed his tactics; his man was
bloody and wobbly and Klqg changed
from defensive to aggressor. Forced
Souza about ring. Latter swung
hard, but wild.
Round 9 King's roiml. Sousa
lost temper and repeatedly butted
with bis head. Much cV.-rhlng,
Round 10 Opened vlth both men
fighting hard. Souxa, although very
wobbly on legs, still tried for knock
out, but could not connect. King
gave his opponent no rest and as the
crowd cheered wildly launched light
nlng-llke Jabs to Souza'a head. Souza
still tried to butt his man with his
head and there were repeated
clinches. Roferea Huff compelled to
pull I h men apart overy few aoconds.
Souza dazod and was against ropes
when gonsrang, with King trying to
put over tho finishing touches.
Allen Refiiic to Go
Ilobblo Allen refused to go on with
Young Raton In tho six-round somt-
final. Katon Is a railroad mnn and
his train was lato. Alton ontorod tho
ring but when ho found that Eaton
was not present withdrew and re
fused to go on again when Eaton did
arrlvo.
Following tho refusal of Allen to
fight Judge Chapman, president of
the local boxing commission, an
nounced to tho crowd (hat Allen, In
View of his bohavior, would never
get another opportunity to enter the
local ring and must buy a ticket and
enter as a spectator if ho over got
inside the doors again for any boxing
exhibition..
The commission states that Allen
sought thai, mateh with Baton but
several days aa refused to fight be-

RULING CHANGED ON
MEDICINE WAR TAX
PORTLAND, May 22. Under a
recent ruling by the treasury depart
ment the tax on toilet preparations
and patent and proprietary medicines
Is based upon the selling price of
each article and not upon tho total
price of a number of articles. If a
person buys five packages of 5 cent
cough drops, a 1 cent stamp must be
attaehed-to, each package. If a per
son purchases" a tubo of tooth, paste
for 35 cents and a bottlo of perfume
for 65 cents, a 2 cent stamp must be
placed on thot tooth paste and a S
cent on tho perfume a total of five
conts. In othor words, the tax Is on
each nrtlclo and not on the combined
purchaso prlco.
This revokes a ruling previously
made by the department.

city May 6th. took flight Into th
mountains of Puebla following a hat

1 o'clock Thursday morning at
Tlaxcalantongo, according to an o

on the graves of the hopes of Gener
al Vlctorlano Huerta, the usurper,
and his followers.
Simultsneousty with General lis
erta's coup d' etat and the asiais! na
tion of President Madero, the news
went out to the world that General
Venustlano Carranza, elected Gover
nor of the State of Coahulla in 1911
refuse
to recognize the usurper
woul'r ,-eslst him by force of arms.
"Madoro's revolution was politi
cal,'' carranza Is quoted as having
said. "Mine Is a social one."
Rom of parents In comfortable)
circumstances In Cuatro CienagM.
State of Coahulla, Doccmber 19,
1859, Venustlano Caranza was eM-
catcd In the public schools of his na
tive state and later studied law i at
the Mexican cautol. .. When he :JM
admitted to the bar, however, atMt'
tlon of the eyes prevented him trtkm
practicing and he retimed to his .
tlve state to become! a raaeher. Ma
experiences as a. rsmtlwc flrst, tag

nor of Coahulla, made Caranza fa
miliar with the agrarian1 problem,
the root of political unrest In Mac
Ico. Having defied Huertaj. Carraaem
rallied a small bind of 600 follower
which grew into a sizable army when.
ho won the support of Francisco Vil
la. Carranza's Influence spread rap
idly, the military victories of hla
chief aide, Villa, rallying the various
factions of Northern Mexico around
his banner. For n time, however,
real progress was slow. Huerta'a
machinations had embroiled' Mexleo
with tho United States and Interven
tion seemed' Imminent. The killing et
W. S. Renton, a Diitlsh subject, by a
staff officer of Villa, further compli
cated the situation. -, ,
Then came Villa's victory at Tor
reon, the first real success at the
war. Carranza was pressing Huerta
hard when the A B C conference to
discuss the differences between tho
United States and Huerta was called
In Buffalo. General Carranza refus
ed to suspend hostilities and declin
ed to abide by the results ot those
diplomatic negotiations. The fight
ing went on with the result that
General Huerta resigned the provm-
lonal presidency July 15, 1914, and
a month later General Carranaa
made his triumphal entry Into Mex
ico City, Huerta In the meantime
having fled to Spain.
Shortly afterward Independent
revolutionists led by Zapata, General
Pascuat Orozco and others commenc
ed. Dissension between Villa and
Carranza, which began nt the Tor
reon conference, reached a climax
September 23, 1914, when Villa de
clared war on Carranza. General
Alvnro Obregon became Carranza's
leading general.
Tho Villa generals met at Aguscal
lentea in November, 1914, and, In at
llanco with tho Zapata faction, form
ed a Conventionist Government, The
capital changed hands several times
and was not Anally taken by General
Obregon until the summer of 1915.
The beginning of tho end of the
Villa-Zapata party as a military pow
er followed swiftly the heavy deteata
ot Villa by General Alvaro Obregon.
Villa was forced to give up Torreon
and concentrate hla dwindling foroea
In 'Northern Chihuahua and' Eastern
Sonors, making occasional forays
and raids which culminated. In tho
