ENERGY IS WHAT TELLS.

Results puts chapter of philosophy
in a pellet when it says: "If advertising
could succeed without energy there
would be too many men in it. The
benefits of advertising only come to
the men who follow it up" In other
words, the natural law applies as well
in the commercial world. 1t is the
fittest that survive. So in business.
Among multitude of advertisers it
is the energetic advertiser who gets
his share of whatever trade is going,
whether times be dull or not, and
helps by his example to dissipate the
ghost of dullness.

THE RICHEST MAN ON EARTH.

Russian Treasury, says London Truth,
the Car is the richest man on earth.

TEN ROUNDS AND A DRAW.
A Lively Set-To Between Deny Gall

n livery Set-IO hetWeeu Deny Gall
lagher and Jack O'ConnOr.
The bout between Denny Gallagher, the
champion featherweight OF the south and
Jack OConnor. a lightweight OF Brook
Ign. n. Y, which took place in the rooms
OF the Savannah Athletic Club. at the
foot of Bull street last night. was de-
eided by Referee Roberts a draw.
crowd OF about 800 paid 80 cents apiece
to see the exhibition, and everybody APP
peared to be thoroughly satisfied with
the investment. Harry Chester, who is
tramping 1t from Chicago to Jacksonville.
and return on wager, acted as official
time-keeper.
Two bouts between local colored scrap
pers served as curtain-raisers for the big
event. The first lasted three rounds.
when one of the contestants complained
OF sprained arm, caused by blow, and
gave up. The other was ended in the
fourth round, by one OF the men throw
ing up the sponge.
After a short wait the referee announced
ten rounds OF three minutes each. Marquis
OF Queensberry rules, the winner to take
the gate receipts. In the event of a draw
the purse was to be divided.
Both men appeared cautious at the start,
each sparing for an opening. Gallagher
was slightly the aggressor. For the first
three ROUNDS honOfS were easy, both men
getting In several light blows. In the
fourth round Gallagher landed twice on
OConnOr's nose and mouth, but the man
from Brooklyn got in several good blows
just before time was called. O'Connor
punched Denny on the mouth and again
on the chin in the fifth, while Gallagher
MT OConnoT one in the mouth that slight
" staggered him
Neither man did anything of conse-
quence in the sixth round, but the sew
enth and eighth rounds were marked by
some hard fighting on both sides. In the
punching by both men and had the round
lasted a little longer there might have
been a Knockout.
When the gong sounded for the ninth
round both men jumped to work. They
got in several face blows, and O'Connor
appeared slightly winded. He became the
aggressor In the tenth round, but
the round was taken up with
passes and sparing, there being but one
good blow on each side. Neither being
put out, the referee announced the fight
a draw.
1t was as clever a ten-round bout as
one could wish to see, and II was hard to
tell which had the better of H. Some
thought Gallagher had, and some favored
OConnor.
Gallagher announced after the fight
that he would like to meet OConnor again
in twenty-round bout for the gate re-
ceipts and a side bet j. Davis, OConnor' s
manager, said that his man could not
fight again inside of six weeks, but that
he would meet Gallagher on his own
