BUTLER EARNS VICTORY-(CXJIX'JUED FROM PlECEEDI'Kr PAGE)
head and body. Allard reeling under the terrific bombardment, staggered to the
ropes into a clinch,and Butler, apparently in adiiiration for his stamina and
gameness, let him hang on when he might have pushed him away and put him out.
Ihe crowd recognised that the end was close at hand*
As the bell sounded for the seventh, Butler came from his corner with
a rush* He met Allard beyond the center of the ring and sent a left, a right and
a second left to the jaw in rapid succession. The Indian dropped heavily to tne
canvas, dazed and stupid with punishment** Slowly he rolled over, drew his knees
up beneath him, and as the referee counted nine, rose to his feet facing the.
champion as helpless as a baby* Butler measured him off and sent two terrific
rights to the jaw for the knockout. Allard's head hit the bottom rope and hung
there as Franks counted ten. He was out several seconds longer, being helped
to his feet and taken to his corner by his second.
The semi-final between Bill Baudin and Jacob Clark ended in a duaw. Ihe
^atthetos-Kern go was also a draw. Roberts, a Douglas Indian, lost to Robertson
of Juneau on decision. ___

NEJVLY-MADE 2nd LIEUTENANT LEAVES:
2nd Lieutenant Perry, until recently Sergeant Perry of the local •»
left on Saturday’s boat for the States, where he has been assigned to Foru
Douglas, Utah. Lieutenant Perry took his examination for coinnission last
spring at this post. Due to his excellent education, he was excused from all
except one subject in the mental examination. He elected to be examined in
calculus, one of the most difficult of academic subjects, and passed with
1 flying colors. Ihe board before which he appeared, consisting of officers
1 who had known him intimately for a year or more, gave him one of the most
glowing recommendations ever given under similar circumstances, and the re
sult was a well-deserved promotion to the commissioned rank. Mrs. Perry, one
of the most popular of the younger women on the post, accompanied her husband.
Their departure, on the occasion of which many friends had gathered at the
pier was marred by an accident which might easily have proved fatal. Mr. Frank
Sorrelfe a civilian eraoloy, drove the Perry's and Sgt. and Mrs. Kline U the
Haines wharf. In turning around on the dock, the mechanism of the car went
wrong and, unable to stop it, Mr. Sorrels drove the front end of the car off
the dock. It was held by the crank case, and the passengers and iriver alighted.
The car was then hauled back onto the dock and later repaired.
