NEW RECORD FOR FAIR The sixty-fifth annual fair of the Amherst Island Agricultural Society was held at Stella yesterday, and it was a pronounced success in so far as the quality of exhibits was concerned. The entires in all classes were greater than ever before. Owing to the cold weather which set in Monday night and the threatening of rain yesterday morning the attendance from the mainland was not as large as it other- wise would have been, Amherst Fair is one of the oldest one-day fairs in the Province.

The structure, while not so |ager of the champion, said that he new in years, was an asset tb the H. ' threatened to withdraw Tunney from the bout during a heated conference Wednesday at the offices of the Box- ing Commission, The meeting was attended by thd three Illinois Boxing Commissioners, Leo Flynn, Tex Rickard, George Getz, Gibson and others interested in the financial success of the fight. During the heat of the argument over the rules to govern the battle, Gibson said the barrage became so violent that he reached for his coat and hat and said: "Gentlemen, if 1 walk out of that door, there will be no more chance of this fight taking place than there will be of my flying out that window." His path to the door was barred, Gibson said and negotiations became more friendly.

The Lake Head Cities en- deavored to join up with the Soo a few seasons ago, but the Northern | O.H.A. refused to permit the defec- tion of that town. It is now believed it could be arranged. Port Arthur! and Fort William, since last year's experiences, appear to have no hope -for outside affiliation in the Winni- peg direction. Kenora will not have a senior team this season, but Port ! Arthur and Fort Willlam are as keen as ever over the big-time stuff, Oshawa collegiate should have their rugby schedule prepared with- in a few days now, as it will be much easier for the conveners to get down to brass tacks now that the intermediates have announced their opening dates. Conflicting dates will be avoided. Hamilton Tigers sustained a sev- ere loss last night when their grand- | stand was completely destroyed by | fire. Coming as it does on the eve! of the rugby season, practically the only time of the year the stand is: in use, it leaves the Tigers in an un- fortunate position, even if their! first home game isn't until October | 15.

The golters attempted to frighten the crow and make it drop the ball, but it flew to an adjoining field be- fore doing so. The guestion was immediately rais- | ed as to what penalty the player' should suffer, if any; and reference to the rules made it clear that seeing the ' ball was at rest when picked up by the crow, the interference by an out- | siide agency left the player the right | to drop another ball at the spot where the crow had taken his prize, without penalty.

DEMPSEY SAYS BARRY UNFAVORABLE TO HIM New York, Sept. 28.--Jack Dempsey came out last night with a flat denial of Gene Tunney's claim' regarding final instructions from Referee Dave Barry in the championship bout at Chicago. "I received no 'warning or instruc- tions about retreating to a neutral corner in the event of a knockdown," Dempsey told newspapermen, that I lost the decision through the fault of a referee who was not favor- able to me. I knocked Tunney out, and I can do it again. I want an- dther match with him, and I'm going to do my best to get it."
