VILLA WINS IN
SEVENTH ROUND
BY KAYO ROUTE
Is New Flyweight Champion
—Hands Out Terrific Beat
ing to Jimmy Wilde.
POLO GROUNDS, New York, June
19.—Pancho Villa, toppled over Jim
my Wilde, of Wales, with a crashing
right to the jaw in the seventh of a
scheduled 15-round go last night .and
lifted the world's flyweight champion
ship crown from the brow of the fal
len Englishman and placed it firmly
on his own head. The fighting little
Filipino was completely master of
the veteran Wales battler and was
never in danger.
Wilde had only gameness and craft
to stack up against the little brown
fighting machine w hich battered and
smashed him throughout the fight and
these weren’t enough to stay the
challenger. The deposed king of fly
weights took an awful walloping be
fore he was counted out.
Rushing, and slashing with both
hands, Villa had Wilde groggy in
tile opening round. He kept up these
tactics throughout the fight.
Wilde was but the shadow of the
boxer who held undisputed sway
among the light men for years. Only
Ills marvelous gameness and the heart
of a master ringman enabled hint to
last as long as he did.
He stood up under the most deadly
of attacks for six heart-breaking
rounds, bleeding from cuts on his
mouth and cheeks. Only occasion
ally was he able to take the offen
sive and then his punches were
feeble, most of ills strength being
worn away by the savagery of Vil
la's attacks.

England Has Big Quota of
Motorcycle “Speed Boys”
LONDON. June 19. —A new type of
man has become somewhat common
in England recently, lie Is the motor
cycle “speed merchant” of which
there are some 980,000 in the coun
try, and who, attired in leather jack
ets and crash helmets, fly around
the roads at high speed. Their craze
for pace may be prompted by the
fact that statistics show there are
fewer accidents when riding at high
speed.
At Brooklands race track a spill
at 45 to 50 miles ail nour means s r
ious Injury and the hospital, but at
60 miles an hour only a few grazes
are received, ami at 90 miles the
“tumbler does not even hurt him
self." These are the statements of
Doctor Gardiner, who has had racing
experience there since 1911, anil al
though records for motor cycling
on this track mount higher and
higher, fewer riders are injured.
It is asserted that a man's body
falls better than anything of equal
weight, it travels some distance par
allel with the ground and finally
rolls over and over, thus, preventing
Injury.

Important to all Women
Readers of this Paper.
Thousands upon thousands of
women have kidney or bladder
trouble and never suspect it.
Women’s complaints often prove
to be nothing else but kidney
trouble, or the result of kidney or
bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a
healthy condition, they may cause
the other organs to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back,
headache and loss of ambition
Poor health makes you nervous.
Irritable and may be despondent;
it makes any one so.
But hundreds of women claim
that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by
restoring health to the kidneys,
proved to be just the remedy needed
to overcome such conditions.
Many send for a sample bottle to
see what Swamp-Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder medicine
will do for them. By enclosing ten
cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing
hamton, N. Y., you may receive
sample size bottle by Parcel Post.

LATONIA DERBY
RACING CLASSIC
Is Second Only to Kentucky
Derby in Appeal—Brings
Out 3-Year-Olds.
CINCINNATI, O., June 19.—(By As
sociated Press.)—While Latonia open
ed wide its Rates to the lovers of
horse racing June 5. yet the La
tonia Derby, to be run here Saturday
June 30, is the outstanding race of
the meeting, and admitted by all to,
be only second to the Kentucky
Derby in point of interest. In fact [
many horsemen pronounce the La
tonia classic as the real test of stain
nia and speed combined, for the rac*
is a quarter of a mile' longer than
the Kentucky Derby.
The race is at a mile and a half,
and will draw the very cream of the
three-year-olds of the West and prob
ably a considerable number of East
ern horses.
Those who were familiar with the
beautiful Miidale course found many
changes upon visiting the track this
summer. The stewards' stand has
been moved from the outside of the
track in a position in the Infield
to give these officials as unobstruct
ed view of the entire course. An
other innovation is the construction
of a tunnel beneath the track near
the paddock entrance. This was con
sidered necessary as the old route
from outside the track proper to the
infield had a tendency to wear a
hard footpath across the track in
the very middle of the stretch and
it was known to have caused horses
on several occasions to lose their
stride on hitting this hard surface.
A number of new stables have
been added and the track can now
accommodate 1,200 horses comforta
bly.
