BenZenah was very wild in the sixth and
fought blindly. Cans was cautious in the
seventh until he saw an opening, when he
sent his right in and Benzenah remained
on the floor for nine seconds.
BenZenah's legs seemed to give out in
the eighth, and after receiving a kidney
blow he staggered all over the ring and
went down three times before the call of
time.
Rights and lefts We're showered on Ben
Zenah in the ninth round, and the end

if both manufacturers and workmen
would sign an agreement to abide by the
findings of the committee, he would
be in favor OF the order AS it is he
did not believe in any beneficial results
from a legislative committee.
Mr.. Ross of New Bedford said the
committee on labor was ready to make
an investigation at any time. He allu-
ded to a circular which minated that
the manufacturers did not want an in
vestigation.
Mr.. Oddlin of Andover thought the
order was a bad precedent as it would
mean that the committee would be sent
to investigate every labor trouble in
the state hereafter.
Mr.. Hayes of Lowell said if there
was any desire on the part of the peo-
pie of Marlboro for an investigation,
the representatives from that town
could present a petition TO that end
and have it considered by the commit
tee on labor. He moved the order be
tabled. On the vote the speaker an
nouneed the motion to table carried.

Mr.. Chamberlin at one time owned
a very large estate at South Worcester
on the care of which he expended a
great deal Of time and money. He was
considerably interested in horticulture
and landscape gardening, and at one
time brought to this city A. J. Downing
ana Gilbert Vaux, the well-known land
scape gardeners of New York, whom
he wished to consult in regard to i'm
proVements on his estate. OF late
years Mr.. Chamberlin has resided at
20 Hammond street. Mr.. Chamberlin
mas been in past years 8 prom - mt
ngure in local politics and was a mem
per of the legislature in 1854 and of the
board of aldermen in 1872 During the
years previous to the civil war, Mr..
Chamberlin was a very strong anti
slavery man and was identified with
the free soil party in 1S4S. 1t was at
that time that Charles Allen was elect
ed a member of congress from the
Worcester district on the free soil
ticket, and Mr. Chamberlin was one of
the greatest factors in inducing John
Milton Earle then editor of The Spy,
to support Mr.. Aliens candidacy
through the columns of his pGper.
Mr.. Chamberlin was man of con-
Siuefaple literary taste ana aDlllty, anu
has written several productions of
merit concerning local history and af-
fairs. Among them are IRE p aiscences
of Worcester's Main Street III 1922" a
Memorial of George William Curtis, :"
History of Worcester Schools" and
several other essays of like character
which exhibit a very unusual degree of
historical value and literary merit. Mr..
Chamberlin was one of the best in
formed men in the city on the affairs
and lives of Worcester's prominent peo-
pie together with the history of the
place. 1t had often been requested of
him that he set down in writing FOR
the benefit of posterity, the great fun
of this kind of knowledge which he pos
sessed and he at times made prepara-
lions for so doing, but had never felt
able to give the time to the project that
it would require.

cester, few will leave vacant a place in
