SENATOR CHANDLER said to q Boston
Traveller correspondent: "Many years
ago I determined to take course of
training in boxing, and I employed one
of the best trainers in the country, the
man who trained Heenan for his ia
nous prize fight before the war. I was
under this mans charge for at least six
months, and in that time became quite
an adept in using my fists. / got up
q first-class muscle, and have preserved
it to this day. No person in the Senate
suspects that am boxer, or that l can
strike blow of iron, but, if I am ever
assailed, my assailant will discover that
l can defend myself without resorting
to weapons"

Francisco, and the wife began sulsfos'
divorce. The disunited pair met in q
cemetery by appointment, one day, to
attend to the removal of the remains of
their only child: Mutual grief for the
dead little one appears to have softened
their animosity toward each other, for
they agreed on the spot to become recon-
ciled, Mrs. Bowlan promising to drop
the lawsuit and live with her husband
again. But her heart hardened as soon
as she was out of the graveyard, and
when, on the following day, ,Bowlan
visited her to complete the reconcilia-
ton, she told him that she had changed
her mind. He thereupon murdered her.

awaited himself of the knowledge which
Judge Treat SO curiously and oppor-
timely afforded him.
