they were obliged to migrate. The head

A REMEDY sUqGEsTED..

''Of course" says the writer, sit is
needless for me to say that the Malta
question has thoroughly agitated Amer
lea. Over in Italy, however, they do not
seem to understand that the Malta has
been at work over here, and the cry is
that Italians have been murdered say
three cheers for the good Italians and
hang the bad ones-and then America
will have no reason to feel dissatisfied
with her 1talian-born citizens. OF course
this remedy seems impractical, and if
attempted would nc doubt lead to further
complications, but the principle is there
and / say it is good one.
America should not deal hastily or be
impatient with Italians. If it were not
for an Italian, America might never have
been discovered. That is big point that
we have on you, and l like TO boast about
it myself once in while, particularly
when some rabid anti-foreigner Ameri-
can gets to talking loud.
But | am getting away from my sub
ject-the Malta. The Italian Malta is a
renegade from Italy. He left there to
save his life and fled to America, and
now he has commenced his murderous
display again in America, and 1 hope he
may hang. It is not the fault of those
prisoners that they killed in New Or
leans, but it all lies on the shoulders of
this Italian Malta. These men

Dunn also declared that all bets that

the ten rounds were off. New York
sporting men look upon the decision as
inconsistent. They claim that a ten
round contest must be concluded unless
one man is knocked out or injured so
that he must stop. and that only an
event of either character can end a con-
test of a limited number of rounds. In
