LONDON. Oct. 2S.-In a speech at West
Calder today. Gladstone referred to the
result of the Eccles election as a forecast
of the triumph of the Liberals in the
coming general elections. He advocated
the principle of one man, one vote and
shorter parlisments. Commenting upon
the enormous power the workingmen now
possessed. he said it would prove benef-
cial, as the judgment of great questions
by the masses was more enlightened than
by the educated classes. He would not
venture a decisive opinion on tue general
eight-hour bill until he saw a definite
measure. He was inclined to think eight
hours enough for miners.
Speaking OF the struggle between labor
aud capital, he said among the means
%workinRmen ought to select in order to
strengthen their position. lawful comhina-
ton was the most valuable. The bulk Of
what men have gained in contest with
capitalists has been through j~udicious

Providence. Oct. GA great crowd
assembled at the Gladstone club tonight
10 witness a boxing contest between the
eolored lad, George Dixon, the bantam
weight champion of the world, and young
Johnny Murphy of Boston, for a purse Of
1000 and a wage of $1,000 a side.
Dan Conkley of New York was referee.
Dixon weighed in az lis pounds and
Murphy lI44. Dixon drew blood from
Murphy's face in the first round. After
that the battle wa fast and furious for
several rounds with no particular sdyant.
age on either side.
In the tenth round 800 to $50 was off
cred on Dixon. He seemed to be playing
a waiting game and landed soms hard
blows on Murphy's face and body while
lodging returns.
In the twelfth round Dixon began to
get in his famous left hand stomach
blows, while Murphy, whose left eye was
closed, seemed to lack strength. The
same thing prevailed in the next two
rounds. Dixon punishing Murphy in the
stomach, while the white boys arms ap-
peared to be too short to iDflict damage on
the champion.
In the fourth round Dixon hut Murphy
four times, while Murphy hit him once.
Blood streamed down Murphy's neck,
and Dixon continued to pound his stom
aeh, amid cries of foul and Kissing. Lit
tie was done from this TO the twenty-sec-
Ond round, except sparring for wind.
In the twcnty-second round Murphy
landed a good blow on Dixon, but re-
ceiyed In return the most terrific blow yet
landed. From this time ON Dixon pushed
Murphy hard, smashing him right and
left and forcing him around the ring,
while Murphy was too weak to inhict
punishment. Sill he pluckily responded
to the call of time in each round. In
the thirty-nInth round Murphy, bleeding
and exhausted. was reclining against the
ropes too weak to defend himself, with
Dixon showering blows upon him, when
MurphY's second threw up the sponge
and gave up the fight. HIS friends
sprang on the stage and protested that he
had not been knocked out, but the ref
cree would not allow the contest to pro
coed further. Murphy was terribly bat
tered, while Dixon shows but little pun
ishment.

Measles ia most infectious in the
earlier stages, and it is often too late to
take precautions when the disease is
fully developed. Scarlet fever is most
dangerous in the -convalescent stage,
when the skin is peeling, and terrible
risks are often run by children being
taken out and about without sufficient
precautions being taken to insure the
safety of those with whom they may
chance to come in contact. With whoop-
ing cough there is but little danger in
the open air. unless the children are in
actual contact, but great risk in being
shut up in the same atmosphere, either
in a close room or a railway carriage

Among the many articles of interest
in the new Natural History museum at
Vienna perhaps nothing has been more
discussed than an old Mexican relic
which is preserved with great care I'M
der glass.
This relic, which is now known as
the field badge of King Montezuma,
had lain for 300 years in the Ambrose
collection, where it was at first eata-
logued as a Moorish hat of long, heavy,
glistening green and gold feathers.
One investigator held that it was an
Indian hat, another an Indian apron ;
but in 1920 it was at last known to be
a Mexican badge of high rank, and
through Ferdinand Hochstetter it was
proved to be the genuine field decora-
ton of King Montezuma, captured by
Cortez in 1920 after the battle of
Otumba.
This battle vas followed by the wild
fight of the Mexicans and the robbing
Of the land by Cortez, who sent the
standard and wardrobe of the king,
with much gold, to the Emperor Charles
V, of Spain. The latter gave the
standard to Pope Clement VII, who
sent it to Grand Duke Ferdinand, of
Tyrol, for the Ambrose collection.
1t is shaped like a fan, and is made
from tail feathers of the bird of Para
disc, which have a glitter like gold over
their red, green and blue colors. The
moths lad partly destroyed it, but of
the five hundrc original feathers only
forty on" wero luch injured, and those
have been replaced by new ones, and
the former beauty is fully restored

Merely a low price is not an evidence Of
cheapness in merchandise, and quotations
of clothing prices are of all things most
deceptive. We do not keep what is called
cheap" clothing. We always have some
garments for men and boys at low prices;
but we get them by marking down the
broken lots and slow selling lots of good
quality. These bargain garments adver-
tise themselves. If you want a serviceable
Overcoat, Suit or odd Coat, Vest or pair
of Trousers for very little money, we can
usually supply much better value than
the price asked would buy in the regular
way. Most people, however, want the
best clothes they can afford to wear, and
our rightly-made garments are intended
to supplant the custom work. Therefore
you cannot Judge OF the prices without
seeing the clothes.
