He had just finished a hearty meal and was full and happy, he continued: "We had nothing but eggs. All we got was hard boiled eggs, some kind of dough cakes and tea, but they were good to us. They did not harm us at all. We told the chief that we could not pay any money for we did not have any and that we wanted to go to our mothers. The chief looked at us and said 'oh, all right,' and then let go." The boys said there were several hundred bandits, directed by two leaders.

Kocke-feller, Jr., proved the heroine of the train raid when many foreigners were seized by Chinese bandits near the Shantung frontier, said a dispatch from Tianan-Fu today. The maid is Mlle. Schloborn, an orphan. When the train was attacked in the dead of the night she maintained her presence of mind. She hid a diamond bracelet a solitaire and a wallet filled with money under the seat of the Aldrich compartment. She did not have time to dress before the brigands broke into the compartment. Clad only in her night gown, Mlle Schloborn was driven with the other prisoners toward the distant mountains. Her companion was a Mexican woman. "We walked through the darkness," said the maid. "It was very cold and the way was rough and hard on our bare feet. The Chinese kept urging us forward at top speed. They were in a great hurry." On Monday the soldiers attacked. The bandit chief demanded a volunteer to carry a white flag to visit the commander of the troops to tell him that the prisoners would be tortured and put to death unless the soldiers retired. "I remember well that I was sitting down when a Chinese who could speak English called for someone to carry the flag. Miss Aldrich and Minnie McFadden, her companion, were not with me. I did not know what the bandits would do if the soldiers kept on firing. I was desperate so I jumped up and said I would carry the flag. "I told Miss Naill my mother is dead, I am all alone in the world, I am devoted to Miss Aldrich and if I can save her life I am willing to try." "The Chinese gave me a man's underwear—a suit of B. V. D.'s to wave in the air. I climbed around the rocks on the mountainside and raised the flag little by little. The bullets whizzed by and passed through the throne of a bandit behind me. He dropped dead." "The bandits crawled forward and forced me out in the open. So I began to make my way down the mountainside.

In its absorption of around 1,000 boxes of cull oranges daily, this company will become a potent factor in solving the cull orange peddler problem, by enabling the packing houses to divert to it the peddler grade of oranges and supplying the peddler with a higher grade only. There appears to be a feeling growing among the most progressive of the packers that such action on their part would result in withdrawing from the Los Angeles street market and the beaches the cull grade now so much in evidence and substituting therefore a grade of oranges which will not convey such a harmful impression of the quality of oranges we produce on the minds of the Eastern visitors. The ultimate destination of much of this carload of valna is overseas, while a considerable portion of it will go into the southern States where it is preferred to their local lime juice.

The affair will go down in the records as a technical knockout but it was more actual than technical. Johnson remaining in his corner for ten minutes after the bout. The knockout came only a few moments after Johnson had been precipitated to the floor by a hard right to the head. This was the second of two knockdowns Willard scored previously to the actual knockout. Willard's showing completely confounded those critics who claimed that the middle aged ex-champion would be unable to come back after the Toledo disaster of four years ago when Jack Dempsey stripped him of his title. Attho the run of the fight varied considerably from round to round. Willard was in the lead on points. He not only carried the second, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, tenth and eleventh on points, but when he did land he scored so heavily as to leave no doubt. Willard was the first to appear, striding grimly through the nicle, stopping through the ropes to face a blink hand from the crowd and a battery of cameras. The former champion smiled good naturely as the cameramen asked him to pose. Floyd Johnson, wearing an Alice Blue bathrobe and a cap, came into the ring after five minutes of writing and shook hands with Willard as he named him on his way to his corner. Both men looked bored. A moment later the principals were called to the center of the ring for instructions. There was not a vacant seat in the stadium as Johnson and Willard made ready for their bout. Johnson received a generous welcome when he was introduced to the crowd and held his gloved hands above his head in acknowledgment. Willard, however brought the house down.

NEW YORK, May 12.—Under a blazing summer sun which shone in contrast to the intermittent rain of the early afternoon, the great Milk Fund program of boxing was conducted this afternoon in the presence of more than sixty thousand persons.

The identity of the various referees will be withheld until the boxers enter the ring. Five minutes of three Harry Drake and Joe McCann, principals in the first bout, entered the ring.

The men were barely out of the ring when Al Reich and Newark and Tiny Jim Herman of Omaha shouldered their way through the ropes for the next bout, which was scheduled to go 8 rounds. The crowd, at this juncture was so great as to almost completely fill the great stadium. Reich's weight was announced as 206½ pounds and that of Herman at 218½ pounds. Reich and Herman pawed at each other harmlessly in the early stages being content seemingly to trade left jabs. Reich, however, landed a left hook to the jaw with considerable steam behind it in the middle of the round and Herman came back fighting. Herman missed with a series of wild round swings. Reich scooped prettily with his educated left hand, second round and avoided man's counters by either sliding inside his punches or awake them.
