DECLARED 4 DRAW.
The Fight Between Griffo and Dime Was a
 Tame Affair.

Tame Affair.
 Boston, March 8.-The eight-round contest between Jimmy Dime and young Griffo, the Australian, at Music Hall tonight under the auspices of the Camden Athletic club, was not such a contest as the 1000 or more sporting men had hoped to see and although the match was declared draw Griffo clear ly had the best of it.
 In the first round both men seemed to be sizing each other up and no savage blows were exchanged,
 In the second, third, fourth and fifth rounds, although Griffo did most of the leading, Dime landed several hot blows, which had little effect on his opponent. After the fourth round Griffo's work was by far the more clever and his left frequently found a resting place on Dimes jaw, followed occasionally by his right. Griffo on the defensive, as usual, was fine and Dimes leads generally went for naught. There were no knock-downs although each man was forced to the ropes sev- eral times during the contest. Dime weighed 135 pounds and Griffo was probably five pounds heavier. Griffo forced the fighting throughout.
 At the end of the eighth both men were i'm good condition and by the terms the contest-was declared draw Griffo's seconds were Jimmy Carroll of Brooklyn, Benny Murphy and Billy Smith, and Dime had behind him Howie Hodgkins Tommy Conley, John ny Mack and Harry Oliver. Captain Daley was referee.

BIoomers In Ann Arbor.

The livelieSt piece of recent news

women students at Ann Arbor in de-
tense of one of woman's newest rights.

cycle all the time, and finding IL an in
convenience to change her raiment from
hour to hour she fell into tho habit of
wearing boomers around her boarding
house. Mrs. Enmcs, who keeps tho
boarding house, IS not IA new woman,
but one Of the older fashioned sort who
believe in skirts. She told Miss Day
that bloomers did not ''go" in her house,
SO Miss Day compromised and agreed to
wear boomers only when she rode her
bicycle. But Miss Brown Of the Medical
school cried Tyranny - when she heard
of it and put her bloomers right Oh and
sailed forth into tho street and declared
war. Some Of the professors wives who
ride bicycles sided with her and de-
clared tito be the constitutional right Of
evory woman TO wear bloomers with or
without bicycles Whenever she would.

that she would have no bloomers worn

Mrs. Cleveland and Ruth.

The fact that Mrs. Cleveland was nc
companied to the Letter Curzon wed
ding by her little daughter Ruth should
ofeotually set at rest for all future time
tho false and alicious stories that have
been so long current in regard to the
child, who is really an unusually bright
and sturdy little specimen of childhood
The effort of the president and Mrs.
Cleveland to keep their children in the
background heretofore has been entirely
due TO their desire to keep tho public
from being satiated with accounts Of
tho children, their daily doings, sayings
and happenings generally. That their
motive has been entirely misunderstood
and grossly nisrepresented to the extent
Of having accounts of the children pur-
ported defornitieS and dullness of COM
prehension scattered broadcast ovnr the
United States ID condition of affairs of
which the president aud Mrs. Cleveland
are perfectly aware
1t may or it may not have been due to
the knowledge of such reports that Mrs
Cleveland finally consented to crafty
tho desire of the bride in allowing Ruth
to DO present at the ceremony, Mt which
tho cntlre fashionable world was i'll at
tendance.
1t was certainly the knowledge of
such malicious and ridiculous reports
that quite recently prompted Mrs Cleve-
land to make witty little speech in the
presence Of some guests who had driven
out 10 tne country place ut WoouIey.
While Mrs. Cleveland was entertaining
her callers, tho door of the room in
which they sat opened softly. and
dainty little childish figure stood irreso-
lutely on the threshold. For moment
tho child, seeing that her mother had
callers, started to draw back and close
the door after her. With q little laugh
Mrs. Cleveland held out her hands to
the child, calling ont: Come in, Ruth,
dear. If you don't. people may say that
you have no legs"

There is ono woman in New York

as her physical digestion needs to be in

founded on an ideal is the most absurd
