ChoynSki BeStS Maher.

Chicago, Feb. 16.-Joe C%hoynski got
the decision over Peter Mahe in a six
round contest before the Dearborn
Athletic club tonight. The blonde Cali
fornian evidently had not forgotten his
former defeat at the hands of the Irish
man. for throughout the fight he took
but few chances. c~ontenting himself with
jolting Maher with his left. a task which
he found comparatively easy.
In the last two rounds of the fight Ma
her. maddened by the sting of Choynskis
left glove. rushed furiously. but was al
most invariably Strengthened up, and
during the closing minute of the last
round was so badly punished that he was
staggering as the bell rang.
In the first round Choynski caught Ma
her with a left hook squarely on the
point Of the jaw a SECOND before the bell
rang. and it is probable that if the round
had lasted a moment more Choynski
would have won right there, as the blow
made Maher reel like a drunken man.
Maher made Joe go to the boards in the
second with a hard left en- the chin and
stomach and had a clear lead during
that round. Thereafter. however, Joe
had the better OF it.
Choynski left the ring with scarcely a
scratch, while Makers eye was in bad
shape. Probably 5000 people saw the
fight. which took place in the Second
Regiment armory.

his arm and the bugle fell. The boyy inn
mediately lifted it with his left hand and
repeated the call. He was brought to

PENNSYLVANIA FLOODS
Have Forced Many Industries to
Suspend Production. .>-.s
TWO L1vEs KNOWN TO BE LOST,

Near Carbondals Boy Was Carried
to Death with q Bridge and AM
other BOY Was swept Away At
Mayasia.
Philadelphia, March 1.-The unusu-
ally heavy rain Of the past two days.
c0upled with the melting ice and snow.
has caused severe foods in the central
part of Pennsylvania and In the anth-
racite coal regions. The north and
west branches Of the Susquehanna
river are out Of their banks at many
points, as are also numerous creeks.
Two lives have been lost, due indirect
ly to the foods. and many industries
have been forced to suspend work. in
Guiding large number of coal mines.
The damage wrought will amount to
many thousands of dollars.
Near Carbondals a 13-year-old boy
named Stanley Franz, while watching
the food In the Laokawanna river, fell
from bridge and was drowned and
his body carried down stream. At May
field party was searching for the
body, when another boy named Will
inAn LCWl5 lCAl IALV LILO IiVCI, Wdo Gul
ried away and drowned.
Rellefonte and Williamsport suffered
severely from the rising waters. At
the latter place Grafius Run broke
loose and flooded the entire center of
the city. The city hall is entirely sur
rounded by water One of the large
factories and several schools were
forced to close BellefOnte suffered one
Of the worst foods In it's history. Many
Of the large industries were forced to
close, and some of the workmcn had to
be taken from the establishments In
boats. The town was without drink
ing water for six hours, owing to the
food reaching the boiler house Of the
water works and rendering the pumps
useless. No trains arrived at that
place yesterday. the railroad tracks be-
ing under four feet Of water.
At Selins Grove the Susquehanna
river is rising at the rate of six inches
an hour, and at Bloomsbury the creeks
have risen to an alarming point Part
OF Bloomsbury, known as Ralston, is
inundated. and the Wilkesbarre and
Western railroad has been unable to
run trains between Orangeville and
Millvflle, the tracks being washed
away in many places.
There are no trains running between
Catawissa and West Milton on the
Philadelphia and Reading railway, the
roadbed being under water, making
it dangerous for trains to run. Bridges
on this line have been weighted down
with loaded freight cars to prevent
them from being carried away by the
rushing waters.
The anthracite coal region is suf-
fering to a considerable extent. Coal
collieries at Shamokin, Shenandoah.
Pottsville and in the Mahanoy valley
have been compelled to suspend work
because of the mines having become
flooded. At Mt. Carmel nearly a hun
dred houses in the vicinity of the Le-
high Valley railroad station have been
partly submerged. A branch of the
Northern Central railroad near Mt.
Carmel is under water for the distance
of quarter of mile.
1t is believed that the foods at the
various places have reached their
highest points.
