The ''Kid'' is but % years of age and
is still growing. Three years ago his

Iday he fights at 156 pounds. Two
years from now this great middle

Mccoy is the son of a well-to-do Cit;
quite young he joined the Y. M. G. A.,
nd soon acquired taste for fighting.
The quiet lif= of the country became
dis'a5teful aad Mccoy ran away from
home and went to LGuisvil e, Ky,
where he worked hard as a cash boy
in dry goods store. He joined the
Lpui VIII branch of the y. NJ. G.. A

he decided to adopt Fl htng as a pro

There are few men who look less like

MS pale face and dead white body thai

tnce of an animated corpse. He looks as
cut from marble, that white marble !
which the blue veins are in !
terlaced like a network of arteries.
This deathly look resulted in an anus

He was to meet Jack Wilkes of ST.

PAVING NOT YET ACCEPTED.
Committee of the whole of Council
10 Consider the Matter.

The city council has reached no decision
as yet as to the acceptance or rejection Of
the asphalt pavement laid by the Warren
scharf Asphalt Company on South Broad
street, now Oglethorpe avenue.
The petition of the company for the ac-
ceptance of the pavement which was re-
ceived al the last meeting Of council, will
be considered by the committee of the
whole Wednesday, at meeting previous
to the regular meeting Of council.
The absence Of Mayor Meldrim, who has
been in attendance upon the cavalry en-
campment at Meldrim and the fact that
five of the aldermen have had all their
spare time taken up with the investga-
ton of the fire chief is accountable for the
fact that no meeting of the committee of
the whole has been he'd since the last
meeting of council, to pass upon this and
other important questions.
What action council will take upon the
petition of the asphalt company is in doubt
Commissioner of Public Works Willink
has been summoned to appear before the
committee of the whole TO give his opinion
upon the pavement. Commissioner Will
link has heretofore declined to recommend
the acceptance of the pavement because of
the numerous unevennesses and undula-
tons in the surface, holding that the com
pany was required in order to comply
with its contract, to furnish smooth and
even pavement from which water would
run freely.
A number Of changes have been made in
the pavement since it was first completed
by the company In the effort to meet the
approval of the commissioner but without
success, it seems, as the commissioner
has so far declined to accept the pave
ment. The company has, therefore, done
the only thing left to II 10 do, and appeal
ed to council The contract having been
drawn with council. the acceptance of the
pavement rests with that body and not
with the commissioner. Some of the mem
bers of council are known to hold to the
same opinion as the commissioner, that the
company must furnish a pavement with a
smooth and even surface. The contract
does not specify this in terms, but re-
quires that workmanship and material
shall be Of excellent quality" 1t is upon
this that the company bases its claim for
payment, holding that the contract has
been complied with In other respects and
that the workmanship and material are of
excellent quality.

wise have been called upon to pay their
assessments for the paving some time
since, are drawing interest on their money

city has the funds in hand with which to
meet the account whenever the council de-
cides that the company has complied with

TREASURES IN HEAVEN.
Rev. John ID. Hammond's Topic at
Trinity Church.

The services at Trinity Methodist church
last night were attended jointly by the
congregations Of that church and Wesley
Monumental.
The sermon was preached by Rev. John
D. Hammond, D. D., president of Wes-
leyan Female College. His text was from,
Matthew G: 1921; Lay not up for your
selves treasures upon earth, where moth
and rust doth corrupt and where thieves
break through and steal; but lay up for
yourselves treasures in heaven, where
neither moth nor rust doth corrupt and
where thieves do not break through nor
steal; for where your treasure is there
will your heart be also"
The topic was educational. and the text
was chosen as the divine sanction and au-
thority for the endowment of grand pur-
poses on earth that look to the establish
ment of learning and Christianity.
wesleyan College was presented as a
most worthy object for the bestoWal of
wealth, and it's being made G. beneficiary
of contributions was named as one of the
means through which treasures in heaven
might be stored
DIR. Hammond called attention to the
character of the people to whom the words
Of the text were addressed, showing that
the people of this day, as were the Phar-
isees, Jews, Gentiles Romans and
Sadducees of that, are accustom-
ed to appreciate treasures and
strive for their accumulation 1t was
on this potent Characteristic of hte hui
man race that the words of the Christ,
always practical and touching upon sub
Jects near TO man, enjoined the people to
lay up the heavenly treasures.
we are treasure-loving and treasure
seeking people" said DR.. Hammond, land
there was never a man, who did not love
and treasure up valuable things Christ
addressed this spirit of accumulation and
did not rebuke it,"
In speaking of the thieves that break
through and steal" Dr. Hammond said
that 1t is possible the poor wretches may
not be so much to blame, as 1t may be
hunger that impels them, with the strong
heel OF society grinding them down, to
commit the crime Of theft. But the under
lying pity that showed in the speakers
words for the common hunger-drven thief
was lacking when he touched upon the
thieves in high places.
But there are licensed thieves, /"
he said, whose business 1t is to steal
How many widows and orphans have been
made penniless by being inveigled into
some scheme gotten up by long headed
mann Men ruin each other from day to
day in the stock exchange, but the
world says il is fair"
At the conclusion Of the sermon prayer
was offered by Rev A M. Williams OF
Wesley Monumental church. Rev. j. Fl.
Scruggs of Trinity, before diminishing the
congregation, said that all who might wish
TO aid the cause of education and Wes-
leyan college could do so by turning in
their contributions to him after the SER
vices.
