THE CHAMPIONS RECORD
Has INDUCED in 500 Bouts of All Sorts
Gardner tho Best FeatherweiEht.


When George Dixon, the champion
featherweight pugilist, knocked out
Young Pluto" of Australia. at the
Lenox Athletic club recently there was
hardly one of the 5000 spectators who
did not say:
THAT boy Dixon is the most wonder
full fighter in the world"
Modest and unassuming, Dixon had
just shaken hands with his foe and was
hurrying out of the ring as If anxious
to get out of public gaze. There was
no proud stalking, no grand stand busi-
ness about him, such as other cham
pion fighters like to indulge in, but he
simply followed out his old habit of
taking his victory with Indifference.
When questioned, Dixon said: II
have fought about 100 limited round
bouts since | first came into promi-
nence In 1883, and | have also taken
part in 700 four-round contests, meet
Ing all comers on the road That's
quite Il record, isn't it,"
I'm all that time how many times
have you been knocked DOWN." the re-
porter asked.
only once" replied Dixon, and that
was in a three-round exhibition bout
with the Kentucky Rosebud In Phila-
delphia several years ago. | got out
of sickbed to meet the engagement
and in the second round the Rosebud
thought he saw chance to gain some
fame. We were boxing lightly per
agreement, when suddenly he sneaked
In punch on my jaw which sent me
to the floor like Il log When got up

til the DOut was over That yynS tho

what was the hardest battle YOU
ever fought?"
with Young Griffo, at Ccney Is
land" answered Dixon. 1T was a %
round bout Griffo weighed Iii pounds
and | scaled at 122, the featherweight
limit. | found the Australian was a
wonderful boxer, more scientific, in
fact than anybody l ever me: before
or since. 1t was fast fight and one
of the best on record, to look at be-
lieve."

years ago, but that did not prevent

The Bicycle LamD.

The law compelling cyclists to carry
lights Mt night Is often violated
but only by riders not having
proper regard for their own safety and
that of others.
The bicycle. unlike other vehicles. is
called the silent steed;" it approaches
quickly, noiselessly, and being small
is practically invisible on n dark
thoroughfare, unless carrying a light
ed lamp. A bell does not always ans.
wer the purpose, as the rider nvarIa-
bly, waits until he is nearly ON top of an
obstacle before sounding his bell. A
broad well reflected light enables the
rider to avoid all obstacles and bad
places in the road. Bicycle policemen
are very careful to enforce this lamp
ordinance, but 1t is impossible for them
to detect every offender.

Freelands leading industries, the
silk mill and the overall factory, were
launched at q time when a wave Of de-
preston hoyered over the community
and the whole country. Money was
dear then and its owners were careful
OF where it was placed. Still, when the
movement was taken up in earnest, the
subscriptions flowed in steadily until
the amounts required to place both
plants in running order were realized.
With such record in times of depres-
sion, what cannot Freeland energy and
enterprise do when money is cheap and
people are anxious to invest? The sue
cess which attended the establishing
OF our first two mills has not exhausted
all OF Freeland's resources by any
means. A worthy industry which
would employ adult labor and have
back Of it some guarantee of good
management and business methods can
now obtain thousands and thousands
of dollars. Local investors are anxious
to back local industries If a leader can
be found in whom they can place their
trust. This is the time to make O bid
for more mills and factories.

Hnre HuntInC.

Hare hunting is undoubtedly a more
antique sport than the chase Of the fox
%enophOn pursued 1t with delight in
ancient Greece, and in Britain the
hare was for centuries looked upon
as far more worthy quarry than the
fox, which, until the time of Queen
Elizabeth, and even later, was regard
ed as mere vermin. Nicholas Cox,
author of the "Gentlemans Recrea-
ton" work on sport. published In
1917, writes thus enthusiastically: AS
of all classes the hare makes the
greatest pastime, so it is great de-
light and satisfaction to see the craft
of this poor little beast in her own
self-prcservation." And 1t is to be ad-
mitted that in those shifts and expedi-
ents which, afford to lovers of hounds
the true delight of hunting the timid
hare Is at least as fertile as Gny known
beast of chase In any part of the
world.

NEW MATE FOR EDDIE BALD
Downing, the San Jose Ranchman, VIII
Travel with Him Through 1900.

Eddie Bald has chosen Hardy Down
Ing the San Jose ranchman as his team
mate for the season of 1899. Bald in
speaking of the new man said:
downing first came TO my notice
upon the occasion of the recent match
race with Stevens, at San Jose, and
although he was defeated in that event
he gave Stevens such close rub that
l made up my mind that with proper
coaching Hardy could give all those
circuit cracks a hard tussle. He has
spendid burst of speed, and when his
sprint Is properly developed he will be
as fast as any of them. He has good
cool head for competition and light
ming sprint that does my heart good.
"a man has to be fighter to get
through those big punches on the Ma
tional Circuit. AS near as | can make
out. Downing possesses all of these
requisites, and with the coaching and
assistance | will be able to give him
he should be wonder before the sea-
son is over.

FREELAND, PA, JULY II, 1895
ThrottIing Our School System.

From Philadelphia City and State.
The present thoroughly capable state
superintendent Of public instruction OF
Pennsylvania, DR.. N. c. Shaeffer, it is
understood, is not at all dissatisfied
with his position, but, on the contrary,
finds it agreeable, and would gladly go
on rendering such service therein in the
future as he has in the past. But
owing to the extreme partisan charac-
ter OF Governor Stones administration,
IL is stated, he is without evidence that
he need expect reappointment-haS
had no encouragement to that effect
and, therefore, he gladly returns to his
old place at the head of the Keystone
state normal school, at Kutztown, to
which position he was elected by the
board of trustees OF that school on Fri
day last His salary will be equivalent
to that received by him now as state
superintendent, and he will enter upon
his new duties at the opening of the fall
term.
This announcement Of this action of
the normal school authorities is re-
ceived with great favor by the students
and patrons of the institution. The
people of the state at large, particularly
those most profoundly interested in the
promotion of public education in Penn
sylvania, will deeply regret, however,
that through tho workings of the in
famous spoils system or the shameless
greed of Office seekers the state must be
deprived of the services of one who, by
his attainments and by his experience
acquired, is better fitted by far to rem
der that service in the important sphere
OF popular education than any one like
ly to be chosen to take his place.
But to politicians of the Governor
Stone type positions of high trust and
commanding influence are to be be-
slowed so as most to serve the ends of
party or faction, and only secondarily
so as to promote the interests of the
entire people.

Democratic lawyers are growing ex-
ceedingly modest, They seldom allow a
iudgeship nomination to 20 a-bcgging,
but that is what they are doing this
year in this county. Are they afraid
to try their strength against Judge
Halsey, who will receive the Republi-
can nomination, or have they really de-
cided to have a non-partisan judiciary
in Luzerne? Or is it possible that the
wonld-be judges are held in check by
the gentlemen whose terms as Judges
will expire in a year or two and who
want no unseemly racing for the Office
this year for fear of the effect it may
have in the near future? Why this
modesty, gentlemen?

quarry and inaugurating the work.
THE EVANGELIST RELEASED.
Henry Morgan Warned 10 He Careful
With His G1speI Chariot.

The case of Henry Morgan. the evan
gelist. who was arrested Sunday night by
Policeman Hibl and Purks, charged with
obstructing the street at Eleventh Street
and Pennsylvania Avenue, was heard in
the Police Court yesterday morning.
Judge Kimball after hearing the testi-
mony of the policemen and the defence Of
the evangelist, released the defendant on
his personal bonds with a warning rot TO
repeat the offence.
Evangelist Morgan INDUCED in a Teli-
gious dissertation in court during the
course of which he was frequently inter-
rupted by Judge Kmball with a warning
that the topic was entirely irrelevant to
the case on trial and could not be con-
tinued. Confining himself to the evidence
the defendant stated that his meetings
were orderly and greatly appreciated BY
the general public. He characterized the
people OF Washington as a we'll behaved
and God fearing set. The defendant said
he had visited over 200 cities in the United
States and had never before been molested.
Judge Kimball informed the evangelist
that he applauded his work, and was glad
to see the doctrine of Christianity being
promulgated but at the same time he
could not lose sight Of the fact that the
rights OF the public must be respected.
The evangelist will now have TO he more
careful in the selection OF the place for
MS open -aIr services and at the same time
must avoid a congregation such as would
blockade a thoroughfare.

Quick Relief.

Patience. time, and regular application
are necessary TO cure all catarrhal diseases.
but there are many very uisagreeable
symptoms that are relieved almost at once,
such as headache. stuffness OF nose, bad
odor, hawking and splitting. coughing
and gagging in the morning, nose bleed,
sleeping with mouth open, dry throat.
hoarseness. tickling cough, watery eyes.
hard scabs in nose, catching cold easily,
tired feeling, with drowsiness and low
spirits. As stated before. these symptoms
yield almost at once under the influence
of the Cowden-R Riegel methods. In fact,
after only ten days or two weeks treat
ment, patients usually report a change for
the better taking place in their condition.
This does not mean that they are cured,
for they are not, as it takes a longer time
to thin down the thickened. congested
membrane, heal up uIcerations. restore the
sense of smell, stop noises in ears. change
the secretions to their natural appearance
and consistency, etc. etc. Faithful atten-
ton to the treatment will eventually cure
even these symptoms, as has been proved
thousands of times -by the testimony pub
lished in the daily papers OF patients, who
in that manner express their gratitude and
hope to guide others in the same drec-
tion.
The Cowden- Riegel method is offered at
s. a month until cured provided you apply
before April 1.

AN INJUNCTION GRANTED.
The Case of james A. BrGvn against
NcIitn &. speishouse.

In the case of James a. Brown against
Mellta c. Speishouse and others, Judge
Cox rendered a decision yesterday in
favor of the complainant BY granting the
prayer for injunction pendente lite.
The case was argued last week by
Messrs. Lambert d Lambert for the COM
plainant, and Leon Tobriner and Conway
Robinson in opposition, and involved the
question of the ability of = husband, as
agent, to bind his wife's separate estate.
The complainant Contended that Gft-r hay
ing purchased house from Mr.. Spaishouzc
as agent for his wife, he paid the greater
part OF the purchase money to the former
upon his representation that he had au-
thoTity to receive the same. This author
ity the defendant owner denied, and re-
fused to credit more than part, VIII ch
she stated was all she had received. She
also ordered the trustees TO sell as for
default which action has been enioined.

MIR. ADRIAANs' CASE.
