June 18. Packey Mc-Karland is going to succeed Jack Johnson, Harr Lewis. Willie Lewis and a score of other American boxers on the boulevards of Paris and London. The Chicago boxer has decided to make the trip on pleasure bent and not to fight. Packey wants a rest.

He thinks he has made enough money to last him for several days, and he wants to spend some of if having a good time, and incidentally seeing some of this world. He expects to sail from Xew York June IS and will make Stockholm, where he will take in the athletic games there before hitting the inner sights of Paris. Mcr'arland expects to be gone for about two months, and will not come hack then unless his manager can ome to some agreement with Adolph Wolgast for a battle for the lightweight i nampionship. When Wolgast passed through CMcago a few dajs ago he said it would be next to impossible' fcr him to arrange for McFarland until fall, rega diess of the fact that then, were several big clubs bidding most extravagantly for the services those two Packey is disgusted witn the dickering and wants to get as far away from it as possible. The local man intimated t-uat he might be induced to give the Parisians an exhibition of how to fight while there if they saw fit to offer enougu money.

Packey may take on Georges Carpentier, the French middleweight, in a sparring match, if that can be arranged. LOS ANGELES WINS MORRIS GOLF MATCH Portsmouth Club Disqualified Owin to Misunderstanding.

Something Like Row Over Johnson-Jeffries Pictures; Authority Says White Man Has No Chaace Unless Kegre Has Gone Back; Compares It to Historic Sayers-Heeaan Battle. MILWAUKEE. Wis, June 18. The Johnson-Flynn championship latUt set for Lae Vegas.

X. July 4, has dnwn the attention of the United states senators and congressmen: in fact, so much so that they have practically put through a bill prohibiting the sending of fight films in interstate commerce. That Is certainly going pretty far to try and prevent boxing match. No doubt the whole affair 's the result of the agitation in 1910 when such a. howl went up about showing pictures of the fight, wherein the colored man was victor over the white man.

No doubt, too, the same impression prevailed when the Johnson-Wells fight was stopped in England. HoweTer. the legislature of New Mexico had no feeling in the matter, one wav or the other, for they passed a law legalising boxing bouts, and not to be outdone, her sister state, Ariaona, also passed a law legalising boxing to the extent of 28 round boats. While there are many mollycoddles who want to prohibit all kinds of sport, boxing included, still there are hundreds of thousands of men and boys who like the sp'ort, the same as they like baseball, and who demand to have it. This move of the senators and congressmen seems ridiculous, although it may be doing some good in stopping the speculators in picture films from mixing too much in boxing matches.

It is not so much sport any more; it is all commercialism, the same as baseball, with the sporting sentiment taking a back seat. Still, the Johnson-Flynn fight Is assured and if pictures are taken there may be such a thing as transporting them about the country in aeroplanes or automobiles. That would be a new stunt and Barney Oldfield being a good BASEBALL RESULTS AND CLUB STANDINGS AMBKICAX Clab Standings.

Mrs. Julia Clarke, of Denver, an aviator, wae killed during a practice flight at the state fair grounds last evening.

Tne tip of the ing rf the biplane in which she was flying struck the limb of a tree in the center of the race track enclosure and the machine dashed to the ground. Mrs-. Clarke's skull was crushed. She was rushoj to a hospital in an automobile and died a few minutes afterward. The woman was unconscious from the time the accident occurred until the time of iier death.

Only a few spectators the tragedy, as Mrs. Clarke was making a practice flight preparatory to the exhibition to be giwn here next Friday and Saturday. Mrs. Clarke was one of "the three famous licensed aviators in the United States. The lod will be sent to Den- nr for hnrifll Was Billed for Number of Exhibitions.

Mrs. Julia. Clarke became interested By Tbog. S. Andrews friend of Jim Flynn's, would hardly object to making a record breaking trip to Chicago after the fight to produce the films at some theater, and then rush on to New York with another set.

It might make some of the railroad magnates jealous, but there is always a way to set around some laws. As to the fight Itself, why. that is another Question. Boxing critics will not believe that Flynn has a chance against the colored man. unless "Mistah" Jack has gone back, the same as Jeffries did when he laid off several years, and that appears to be their only hope.

Flynn has one of the greatest trainers who ever donned a mitt Tommy Ryan and if good advice and careful training amounts to anything, then the Pueblo fireman is liable to give a good account of himself. I bad a photo of Johnson taken in fighting pose the other day and the colored champion sure looked heavy and fat. It will take some hard work to get all that fat off during the few weeks left to train, but even with this apparent handicap Johnson will figure a big favorite, at least three to one. It took Johnson 14 rounds to beat Tommy Burns and then he didn't stop him and Tommy is no bigger than Flynn, so taking all matters into consideration, there may be hope for Jim. If Flynn remains on the defensive for 15 or more rounds and weathers the storm there is no telling what may happen then.

If Johnson's condition is not the best why then is the time that it will tell and it will be up to the fireman then to do his work There will be a difference of 50 pounds in weight, but remember that when Tom Sayers fought John C. Heenan for the world's title back in the SO's, Sayers weighed only 156 and Heenan about 223. Therefore let us hope that Flynn -will prove another Sayers. TEXAS LKAGUK. Club Standings.

She became acquainted witn the fryers in camp and last fall went to San Diego, to learn to operate a biplane. With several other aviators she was under contract to fill series of engagements in the central west this summer. Mrs.

Clarke was a native of London, England, and was married soon after her arrival in America. She had not been living with Mr. Clarke for some time, friends say. She was arranging for a two weeks' practice course at the Chicago field, having had no practice for a month after getting her license, when the engagement at Springfield was made and she felt she would be able to keep it in spite of her little recent flying practice.

Mrs. Clarke is the second aviatrice to meet death in an aeroplane. The first death was that of Miss Suzanne Bernard at the Kansas school at Pau France, two months ago. i FIRST GAME TAKEN BY MIDLAND TEAM West Texas Championship Ball Series Is Now On. i Pecos.
