hold his own against anything in his

than it took Terry to dispose of him, and
he has been able, 80 far as the dope.

Terry. Whether he can do so in the
ring remains to be seen. But of one fact
the fistic followers may be assured. and
that is that they will see a4fight from
start to finish. Terry has a reputation
at stake and how well he has protected
his reputa tion in the past is Well enough
known to require but little mention. No
one has Yet been able to make more
than very ordinary showing with him.
He has moved down feather weights,
light weights and members Of nonde-
script classes between the two. and still
stands the undisputed champion of his
class. When Broad and he enter the
ring new proposition Will confront hin,

This question will undoubtedly pc
brought before the constitutional con-

zens of Des Moines will work for the
passage of a provision whereby cities
may acquire their own lighting and

which are given to Chicago in Illinois
At any rate a hard fight will be made

larger than was first estimated. The
quality however, is not as good as i.
would have been had it not been for

a fraction over thirty-six. He declares
