NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-Kid Lavigne, light
weight champion pugilst of the world, came
very near losing his title tonight at the
Greater New York Athletic club in a TWEEN
ty-round bout with Frank Erne of Buffalo.
Erne proved a Tartar for the Saginaw boxer
who is not the LaVigne Of three years ago
by any menas. ETne'S wonderful improve
ment was surprise to the 1000 persons who
witnessed the fight He drew Lavigne to him
and sent back as good he got in many
of the rounds, while in some Of them he
outpQjnted the champion. 1t was generally
understood that a decision was to be giEcn
end of the bout that both men had agreed
TO call it a draw in the men were good
and strong at the end Of the twenty rounds,
was source Of keen disappointment to
host of Ernes friends, who looked fer
favorable decision. Erne deserves the great
est praise that can be bestowed upon him for
his clever work. and had the bout been de-
cided on points, ne certainly would have got
the championship hCnOrs and the greater
slice of the $1,000 purse which the club hung
up for the contest.
The men who laid odds of 3 to l en- La
vigne looked sick towards the end Of the
when Erne was getting the better of mis-
opponent, and If the men were to meet again
even money would be the ruling odds. Erne
tonight on his showing has the championship
almost at his mercy.
Erne's principal second was Kid Mccoy;
James J. COrbett, who was to have seconded
Lavigne, was unable to be present, owing
to injuries received from Kid Mccoy in their
fight today in Broadway hotel.

The Growth of Socialism.

It Is argued by deep thinkers that the
growth of socialism is due to the large stand
Ing armies OF the world, in which men are
often made to enlist against their WILL and
thus become discontinued with existing condi-

people is due to the large sale of Hostetter's
