LOS ANGELES, Cal., May 9.—Tom- my Burns, of Los Angeles, last night won the light heavyweight champion- ship of the world from “Philadelphia Jack" O‘Brien, before the Pacific Ath- letic Club after twenty rounds of tight- ing that was for the most pain, a foot race. O‘Brien ran away from Burns froth the iirsl round to the finish and only occasionally was the latter able to ov- ertake them. Then (l'llrien invariably clinched with llurns and held on until the referee pried them apart. The croivd booted nnd jcered O'Brien and shouted all sorts of rail- lcry at him. l-‘ew blows of ally vigor were lauded by either mall and neither suffered any serious damage. llotll ot' t)’lirion’s eyes were dam» aged and his lips were cut open, blit Burns bud seraccly a scratch. Iiurns showed his disgust with the tactics of his opponent. and called to him re- peatcdly in a loud voice to “come on and tight." O‘Brien ran as though in terror of his antagonist. Now and then Burns would overtake him and beat him on the back. O‘Brien attempted ducking and dodging away until Burns, weary of the foot race, would stand in the center of the ring with his builds to his sides and wait. for O'Brien to collie to him in his race. around the ropes. O‘llrlen lander] many light blows at long range on iiurns‘ head and face during Ills capers about the enclosure, but they were without eitect.

In the. nintll round Ilurns, weary of the constant, retreating. rushed after him and cornered him twice in differ- ent angles of the arena and inflicted severe punishment. The latter made no effort to fight, merely ducking, and trying to get away. Each round was largely a repetitlml of the preceding one. [turns had the better of most of them. whenever he was able to corner his man and get at, him. “ The tWelftli round was strongly in Burns' favor. as well as were the others.

In buying Poultry Feeds and especially for little chicks you must be familiar with the food stuffs on sale, because there is a tendency on the part of all millers to work off grain that is too poor to sell readily when whole.
