1.-THE way OF the transgressOr Is hard. "
Without doubt TO fake in q hstic contest
i. to transgress. Owen Zlegler has been
adjudged 10 be iaker by the keenest in
telligence of the sporting world. Now it
develops that if he can be secured by the
officers of the law before he shall have
passed safely beyond the boundary OF the
State the syllogism will be rounded out
with the statement that Ziesler's path has
proved extremely filnty.
All those who have d one business with
the National "Club'-or the duo, Gibbs
and Groom, which is the same thing
have managed heretofore to escape the re-
suit OF evil doing with little trouble. This
is shown especially in the case of Faker
Tom Sharkey, who was defeated by Fi;z-
simmons as fairly as ever fighter was, and
yet under the decision of the CLUB s"
referee was Earped out of $4,000 that
should have been his. Bat, as the saying
goes, thi promises to be horse of an
other color.
ZIegler has few creditors here that are
gong to make things warm for him ii
they can catch him before he succeeds in
getting out of the State; anu they will
emulate the early bird in rising to-day i'll
order 10 carry out their desire. Among
the M are Bud Forman. manager OF the
Columbian Woolen Mills and J. p. Gal
iagheT, prophet Tor OF the Langham Hotel.
