He Gets the Decision Over Tom
~ Tracy at San Francisco.
q San Francisco, Nov. 27.-George La
vigne gained the decision over Tom
Tracy at the end Of a twenty round
fight at 142 pounds or under. The
lighting was clever and interesting
throughout, but lacked the execute
5ment which usually accompanies a
contest between two such exponents Of
pugilism. Lavigne did decidedly the
main work, being aggressive in every
round, forcing Tracy about the ring
and compelling him to use all his clev-
erness and stiffness Of foot to avoid
the little champions rushes. Tracey
did not seem to be at all chagrined
over the adverse decision and took it
all good naturally. Probably 5000
people were present.

SMITH FAMILY REUNION.

Those who are laboring under the
delusion that there are no Smiths in the
world should have been at the Smith
family reunion. Two or three thousand
persons-possibly all Smiths gathered
at the pleasant grove near Peapack on
Wednesday tocelebrate the twenty sixth
annual reunion of the Smith family.
For nearly generation this picnic has
been held, and Judging from the number
of people present, the interest still seems
to be undated. This little grove where
the picnic is held is situated on the old
Smith homestead and so is doubly dear
to all loyal Smiths
People come from all parts of the
State to this picnic and one meets more
of his friends, far and near, here per-
haps, than at any other grthering in the
State, and in this lies the chief charm of
the Smith picnic. All Smiths are inter.
esting in general. These Smiths are
interesting in particular, because their
ancestors were of the few who braved a
tyrants wrath and left country and
friends to seek home in America. The
Clinton Cornet Band furnished the
music of the day. The audience was
entertained in the afternoon by adj
dresses by the Rev Mr. Kembler of
Hackensack, Nicholas Bower of Basking
Ridge and j. E. Wells of BernardsviIle.
Possibly, this may be the last time the
picnic will be held on this old homestead
farm of the Smiths, as it is situated just
at the head of an artificial lake now in
process of construction, and the grove
will probably be portioned off by some
gentleman who wishes an elegant lake
site.
