In Memoriam.


1.-The Board of Managers of the
Akron Public Library have heard
with profound sorrow of the recent
death of Henry K. Sauder, but late
IL a member of the Board, and de-
string to place upon record their ap-
probation of his many sterling quail
tiles, order the following statement
to be spread upon the minutes of
their body:
Henry K. Sauder was man of
fine mind and bright perception; an
exhaustive reader and tireless student I;
a student of keen analysis and dis
criminative judgment; always quick
to discern the false and to unhesitat-
ingly denounce all that savored of
sham; companion of genial inter-
course and manly character.
His labor in behalf of the library
was given conscientiously and
earnestly, and from both sense of
duty to the charge and love for the
work.
1--WE mourn his untimely decease,
and regret the loss to the community
of his brilliant intellect; therefore
Resolved, That the expression of
our regard be spread upon the records
of our meeting. and that a duly GER
titled copy be by our secretary fur
nished to his sorrowing mother.

Secretary"

Mccoy Knocked Out.

WCtuy NHVCheu Oua'
Jack Mccormick of Philadelphia,
knocked out Kid Mccoy in about
one minute at Chicago, Friday
night. The bout was to have been
for six rounds, and it was generally
thought that Mccormick stood no
show at all. He himself said before
entering the ring that he was going
to do his best, and let it go at that.
The fight was so short and SO quick
ly over that there was almost moth
ing to it but the punch that put Nc
Coy to sleep. The fight was under
strict Queensberry rules, hitting
with one arm free permitted.
When the gong sounded McCor-
mick started in to rush things, rely
ing on his greater weight and su-
perior strength to offset McCoy's
science. He received straight left
in the mouth the first time he tried
it and a second later a savage left
hook on the side of the head halted
him a second time.He then rushed
twice more, carrying Mccoy to the
ropes both times. The first time he
hit Mccoy over the kidneys with his
right. The second time as they came
from the ropes still clinched Mccoy
freed his left and sent a hook to Nc
Cormick's cheek, dropping him to
the floor. Mccormick lay quiet,
making a pretense of claiming a foul
although none had been committed.
Mccormick rose ON the order of Ref
cree Hogan with a sheepish grin on
his face. The knockdown had not
injured him. The men squared off
once more and then came the end
like lightning from clear sky. Nc
Coy was moving in cautiously,
around Mccormick, both hands low
down, neither being as high as the
belt. Mccormick suddenly let fly
his right and it landed full on the
Jaw. Mccoy went down like dead
man, flat on his back, legs and arms
his face pointing
to the ceiling. 1t was evil
dent the instant he struck the floor
that his fighting was over for the
night at least.
Pandemonium broke loose in the |
hall and there were wild yells for |
Mccormick, shrieks of ''Get up, Kid,
get up" Hogan went down on one
knee by the side of Mccoy and |
shouted his call of the seconds In the
fighters ear, but Mccoy was past all |
hearing. At the word ''ten" he
raised his head slightly and Hogan
paused q second before he shouted
out" but Mccoy was still out of it.
Thirty seconds would not have
brought him into condition to fight
again.

Prof. c. T. Winchester of Wesleyan

 district at New Haven on Monday even- ing. His theme was "Narrow Metho- dism or Broad" He criticised in the rule in the church discipline which forbids members attending the theatre. dancing and playing of cards, and thought that the adoption and en- forcement of this rule had done more to retard the growth of the Methodist church than anything else, although il was now the largest of the Protestant churches in this country. The hearty applau.e received showed that the younger members of the church agreed with him, but the clergy did not all be-
 lieve in that doctrine, as was seen by their discussion of the views advanced
