picking Maher as McCoy's first victim
are probably on account Of the easy way
in which boxer with quick left hand
jab and quick foot movements can land
on the Irishman, and, therefore, be able
to get away from Maher's terrific swings,
which he frequently swings at his op-

landing.

WlAAei yeoUciuIy'
There is a prospect of racing in New
Jersey in the near future. The amend
ment which bound the laws so tightly
has been partially defeated, and the rae
ing element are very jubilant at the out
look. A meeting Of the shareholders of
the old Guttenburg race track was held
yesterday at Meyers Hotel, Hoboken,
for the purpose Of discussing the best
means OF dsposing of the property. II
was decided to refer the question to the
Board of Directors, which will report as
to whether it would be more advantage
Gus to sell the estate in bulk or to di-
vide it into building lots.
"There is tendency" said one of the
stockholders, "to hold off the sale just
now until the certiorari proceedings
brought by ex-State Senator William D..
Edwards to review the action of the
State Board of Canvassers in declaring
the anti-gambling amendment adopted,
are permanently decided. If the result
Of the election by which the amendment
was adopted should be set aside the
chances are 100 to against the sale OF
the track under any conditions. Should
the amendment not be defeated the track
will undoubtedly be sold."
The point to be decided is the legality
Of the action of the Board of Canvassers
in declaring the anti-gambling amend
ment adopted, although it received but
70,443 votes, while there were 69,642
votes against it and 981 ballots we're re-
jected. The claim is made that the am
endment did not receive the majority Of
votes cast.

the negro fled through the alley. Re-
membering that the rear door of the
house was open and fearing an attack
from that direction, Mrs .Hough ran to

negro caught hold of her and threw her

her assailant, and he ran out of the door.
Mrs. Hough fired II second and third time
