Since the decree against prize
fighting, people have become pow
erty stricken. There Is no need to
beg for charity. "Can't give you
anything now, since the fight Is de-
clared off. Had to cancel an order
for a big bill of goods since the
emergency clause went into effect"

charity. A lady Of our acquain-
lance, who expected to reap har-
vest by keeping boarders during
the fair and fight, declares the
fight is no worse than the fair. In

will not have so demoralizing an
effect upon our youth as some Of the
exhibitions Of perfect forms-liv-
ing pictures II you please-that
were, and doubtless will be again,
on exhibition at our fair.
