pie at the ferry as he stepped from the
gang plank. II was noticed that he was de-
Jected and seemed moody. The only out
ward sign that he had been i'm a fight. how
ever. was the swollen condition of his left

OF his defeat. except that IL was a chance

JOHN WESLEY AMONG THE SAINTS.
Reviled i'm One Age tn Be HOnOred
in the Next.

new 1ork advocate.
The church that once repudiated John
Wesley and cast him out continues to do
him honor. The distinctions are postum
NOUS, TO be sure. and can do the noble
subject no harm. but they prove the truth
of the saying that those whom one age
cannonades the next canonizes. The fol-
lowing paragraph, reciting the casting out
of the sculptured Wesley by his own fol-
lowers and his exaltation by the repre-
sentatives of those who had only contempt
for him while he was in the flesh. is taken
from the Methodist Times OF london:
The stone that the builders rejected has
become the head of the corner. When, in
A. ID. 1879. the Wesleyan Church at Upper
footing was erected. a well-known eccle-
s~iastical sculptor was commissioned to
carve a statue of John Wesley, to occupy
a niche over the main entrance. This was
done. but those in authority-afraid. we
suppose. that the introduction of sculpture
might possibly tempt the weaker vessels"
in their flock to idolatry-soon had the
statue removed. The original study or
model for this unlucky statue has stood in
the sculptor's studio from that day TO this.
So long ago as A. ID. 1919 James Ravens
time TO time upon the repair of Barnet
Church (Herts), and this once small sum
has now accumulated into a very rich trust
indeed. The last and latest addition paid
for out of the fund i'm question is a most
ornate pulpit and canopied s~ounding-board
In carven oak. Both were dedicated q few
days ago by the Lord Bishop of St. Adams.
AT the angles of this fine addition to this
costly church are groined inches: in which
respectively are appropriately placed well
considered and cleverly-modeled statuettes
OF England's six greatest preachers. The
list is as follows: St. Augustine of Can
terbury, the Apostle of England; st. Alden,
bishop of Lindisfarne: st. Hugh. of Lin
coin: Latimer. the martyr; John Wesley.
and Canon Liddon. Curious 10 record. the
satuette of our sainted leader is made from
the selfsame model as was the rejected
one OF Upper footing. So far as we are
aware, this is the first time John Wesley
has been placed in an Episcopal church on
a level with such goodly Company

Smith Threw Up the Sponge.

CARSON. New, March 1.-THE light be-
tween Mysterious Billy Smith and George
Green, weller weights, followed closely.
Smith had the worst of it until the end of
the eleventh round. when he gave up the
fight. saying that his arm had been broken
in the fourth round.
MALACHI Hogan, of Chicago, was referee.
and he had his hands full. The men clinched
repeatedly and were loath to break away.
Smith devoted most of his attention TO in
fighting and in the clinches would get Green
around the neck and with his right arm
free play a tattoo on the San Francisco
boys ribs. Green constantly jabbed with
his left and soon had Smiths nose and
mouth in a pulpy condition. 1t was notice
able that Smith refrained from using his
left arm. which had been broken three
months ago and could only land an oc-
casional right swing.
Round 1.-The men clinched and Smith
commenced his work on Green's ribs. On
the b~reakaway Green punched Smith in the
stomach. There was another clinch and
both got in blows on the body.
Round 2-Smith swung his right ineffec-
tually and clinched. Green jabbed him I'm
the mouth with mis- left. Another clinch
and Green jabbed again with his left, caus-
ing Smiths mouth to bleed.
Round SGreen played alternately with
his left for Smiths nose and stomach, land
ing nearly every time. In a wrestling
mdtCn Gfeen was thrown ana remained
down three seconds. AS the round closed
Green got i'm two more jabs with his left.
Round +Smith rushed at Green and the
usual embrace followed. Green got in a
left on the stomach and a right swing on
the ribs. Smith gave Green a hot one in
the ribs.
Round , was like all the rest. q succession
OF clinches and jabS by Green.
Round Smith went 10 the floor as the
result of a left-hand punch in the face.
The mysterious man seemed very tired
and hung to Green as long as he could in
the clincheS. AS the round closed he landed
on Green's jaw. but did no damage.
Round Smith rushed matters a bit, but
was Intellectual until the end of the round,
when he sent Green's head back with a
right swing on the mouth.
Round Sin a wrestle Smith was thrown,
Green then tried for a knockout with his
right. but missed.
Round 6Green played constantly for the
stomach but Smith managed TO block him
every time.
Round 10-Green had II nearly all his own
way. landing n succession of lefts on the
head and body that badly demoralized
Smith. who appealed TO the reTeree for pro-
| lection.
Round 11-Green wanted to end the affair
and rushed Smith against the ropes. Smith
got his right twice on Green's neck and
was I'm return iabbed i'm the stomach. Smith
was very tired and when the bell rang and
he had gone to his corner his seconds threw
up the sponge and the fight was given to
1 Green.

eminent give no less plausible guarantees
OF authenticity than the results OF the 'e7-
sus in France. and they furnish us with
testimony worthy of belief in regard TO
the number of centeaarians that exist I'm
certain portions of the United Kingdom. In
London. for example. there Were I'm 1891
twenty-one persons who were more than "A
century Did. BY a curious coincidence the
number of centenarianS who are still alive
are not counted in the total in which the
deaths are given. il is presumab BILE from this
comparison that the pure air of the mouii-
tains is much more favorable for human
longevity than the foggy atmosphere of the
