GEORGE DIXON DEFEATED


Championship from Him.
New YORK, Nov 2S.-The Broadway
Athletic clubs arena was filled last night
with "a large crowd of sporting men, many
of whom had come long distance TO wit
ness the twenty round contest betweea
George Dixon, of Boston. and Frank Erne,
of Buffalo, for the featherweight cham
pionship of the world. Dixon and Erne
met in this city last Decem Der and the re
suit was then Il draw Since that time
the admirers Of both boxers have clnimed
TINT their man had the better Of the go.
Both of these featherweights trained
faithfully for last nights contest, and
there We're many bets made that they
would go the full twenty rounds without
other gaining a decision
Both men started in with an air of con-
fidence, and the fighting throughout was
fast and furious. In the third round Erne
landed on Dixon's left eye, and in the
fourth round that optic was bleeding
badly. In the eighth round the slugging
was terrific, Dixon trying vainly to put
his opponent out. Again and again he es-
sayed to get in knockout blow, but Erne
cleverly met him at each attempt, and at
the end of the bout he seemed to be in the
best condition of the two.
There were loud calls for draw when
the fight was over, but the referee decided
in favor of the Buffalo boy. There was
plenty of cheering and very little kissing
when the referee decision was announced.
Erne rushed over and shook hands with
Dixon and he was congratulated heartily
by number of those who witnessed the
mill, which was one of the hottest ever
seen in the squared circle

The murderer who, at dead Of night,
creeps, stealthily out to bury the dead and
nangled body of his victim inspires men
with horror and dread. There is a murderer
abroad who yearly Stays one sixth Of all the
human race who go down to untimely deaths.
This dread monster is called consumption.
The approach of consumption is slow and
insidious. First there is slight disorder
of the digestion. The appetite Is poor and
the nourishing properties of the food are not
properly assimilated The blood becomes
thin and impure. The body begins to starve.
Old tissues of the body are not properly re-
placed by new. The lung tissues are not
properly nourished and are inert and half
dead. In this condition they offer a good
soil for the germs of consumption which
invade and attack them
This operation is promptly reversed by
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
invigorates the digestion and appetite and
makes assimilation perfect. 1t builds up
and purifes the blood. II makes new and
healthy tissue to replace the old, inert mat
ter which it causes to be carried off. II

JUDGE WEAR AND HIS son.

The Wear murder trial is now going
on before Judge Riley at Poplar Bluff.
This case has attracted the attention
of the legal fraternity all over the
country. 1t is a case that has become
famous because OF the many legal
turns that have taken place.
Young Wear was once acquitted
through legal t~echnicaiities of the
charge for which he was indicted. He
was again indicted by a grand jury in
Butler county for the crime of which
he was acquitted. Several courts had
something to do with the case. Judge
Wear used every means known to the
law and tricks not in the law. TO have
his sOn released without Il trial. He
has been untiring in his efforts to save
his son He seemed to dread a trial.
but with all his ability us a lawyer,
with ali his tricks as a shrewd practi-
toner and with all his power as Il Ju-
deal of the State he has failed, and
now his son is on trial for his life. If
he is innocent of the crime charged
against him he will be acquitted. If
he is guilty he should and no doubt
will be punished.

PRIMARY

There is some talk of adopting the
primary election in this county. Those
who are favoring the plan are evil
IDENTIFY not posted. The primary cleo
ton is ne more nor less than the old
troublesome way of electing officers.
If anything it is worse than the old
way. The primary election means an
election in every sense OF the word.
1t means that tickets must be printed,
the polls opened at the different voting
precincts in the townships OF the coun-
ty. 1t means, in fact, two elections
one at the primaries and one general
election. 1t means TWO campaigns for
the candidates. 1t increases the ex-
pense of every mar who runs for Of
flee. 1t gives the sharks and hood
lums 4 chance to pull the candidates
leg. At the primaries the bleeders
stand around the voting precincts with
their hands full OF tickets which they
poke at every voter that goes to the
POiAS' my arc ul-u HlICu W NUIE
for certain candidates. They are men
who are void Of principlc-mcn who
are ready to sell their votes and their
influence, ii they have any. to the
highest bidder.
The Australian system of voting at
elections did away with all these o.
jectienal features, and the people are
we'll satisfied with the change.
There is no fairer way of selecting
a county ticket than by the county
delegated convention. The voters OF
the several Townships have it in their
hands to send delegates to the county
convention who will truly and faith
fully represent them. II the people
will turn out to these township con
ventions, As is their duty to do, there
can be no excuse for saying that these
conventions are run by Il few pOliti-
clans. The voters have it in their
power to control the conventions and
if they fail to exercise shat power it is
their own fault.
