The bout between Jack Root and
George Gardner has placed another
unsatisfactory event on the pugilistic
record. No fight of any importance
nowadays can escape public suspicion
when it ends with the delivery of a
foul blow. Boxing continues to be an
unfortunate sport. A few years ago
nothing would have been thought of
the decision against Gardner in Roots
favor. Within the last few years,
however, the public has been bit, and
is always on the lookout for a frame
up.
According to the majority of the
fight writer's who saw the battle Root
was plainly fouled and was entitled to
the decision. Others who sat at the
ring side hold different opinion. One
San Francisco paper says the affair
was frame-up, that it was on the
books for Gardner to lose and that the
battle was decided before the men en-
tered the ring.
up to every fight follower to form his
own opinion. Certainly the hackers
of Jack Root can make no complaint.
He won his fight, and rewarded the
men who strung their money on him.
He had the better of the fight as far as
he went, and when the foul blow was
delivered he was entitled to the de-
cision. 1t was not a foul of any serious
consequences, as Root was not hurt.

Depended on tho Guns.

81 ran across a county fair out in
the southwest last fall" said the trav-
eler, and was considerably interested
in horse race in which there was a
big field. There were all sorts OF
horses, and it was owners to ride, and
had seat in the judges stand. When
the race was finally run, one particular
horse came in lengths ahead, and an
other twenty rods behind. 1t was dead
easy to make decision, but the judges
hesitated SO long that l asked what
was the matter.
Why replied one, we are waiting
to see if old Bill Harper, the one who
came in last, has his guns along
But what difference does that
make?'
"A heap, my friend. If he hasn't
got his guns along he's distanced in
this race, but if he has then he's got
to be declared the winner or some OF
us will get shot"

Art of Clara Morris.


Julia Marlowe says of all the ac-
tresses she ever watched for educa-
tional purposes there was never one
who taught her SO much as Clara Nor
her what to avoid and what
to cultivate, how much nature and how
much art could be subjugated to the
demands of portrayal and where acting
should begin and feeling quit. Gentle
Miss Marlowe has no idea what sort
of dubious compliment she pays her
sister in craft. possibly, but there is
heap of truth in it ALL and the emo
tional Clara is stickler for truth, says
Amy Leslie in the Chicago News.
Morris had the entire hysterical Or
ganization of the American body fem
mime in fearful twist for years and
she kept her erotic pulse at fever heat
to command the excitement She
blazed away at the nerve centers and
accomplished more the brief witching
time she worked her magic spell upon
America than any other player in the
world. Perhaps in these graver days
of theatricals and advance of civiliza-
ton the monstrous triumph OF Miss
Morris could not have been attained
still it was as sincere as baptism by
fire and totally without hippodrome or
vulgar pretense. The womans mysti-

walco.t,s idea Of a Fight.

Joe Walcott, when it comes to rough

pugilist cards and spades. Just before
one of the meetings between the Bar
BADGES wonder" and mysterious
Billy" Smith, Tim Hurst, who was
refereeing, called the men to the cen
ter of the ring and said: ''Is this to
be gentleman's fight in a parlor or
a rough-house affair? want to know
beforehand "Lor', Mister Hurst"
calculated Walcott Gust as if ye

SO does 1, so don't be too strict, Mister
Hurst" go ahead and use axes" was
Timothy's reply, but don't ask me to
interfere" The fight that followed
was fierce thing to look at. Elbows,
knees, butting with the head and
wrestling kept the crowd up in arms.
When the affair was over and the de-
cision was a draw. Walcott blurted
out as he left the ring: Dat was a
parlor match. 1t was lucky wese were
good-tempered!"

JAPANESE PAINTERS.
Tho Brushes They Use and the Manned
of Their Use.

Tho Brushes They Use and the Manned
of Their Use.
The japanese artist has made most
careful study of how to convey truths
in the most pleasurable way; how to
make his lines most beautiful, as
though a speaker would use but words
of most exquisite sound. To do this
he has cultivated his touch until it
is but mockery to compare it with that
of his European brother. He has
learned to handle his brush with a
directness and precision which is a
thing of wonder, and he has studied
with a patience beyond compare the
possibilities of each particular kind Of
brush. He knows, for instance, that
one kind of brush may be used to ex-
press a bamboo stem and that an
other brush will be less efticacious. He
knows how to fill each particular part
of that brush with a certain amount Of
color or water, so that a single move
ment of the hand over the paper will
paint the stem, its light and shade,
its peculiar characteristics, complete.
And to the perfecting of that single
movement of his hand over the pa
per he and his ancestors have given
years of study.
Listen to a description by a Japan
csc. He is not an artist himself, but
is explaining how artists use certain
brush:
The brush with color is passed over
piece of paper with heavy stroke
that spreads the bristles of the brush,
at the same time bending them at the
tip. The brush is then turned SO that
the bristles curve toward the artist,
and a light stroke will produce the
hair-like lines. This is one of the
ways of painting the hair or fur Of
animals"

Miss Crosman decided to stage the

When the piece was produced for the
first time in Philadelphia, many OF
Miss CroSman's friends were in the au-

Harry Harris Wants a Fight.

Harry Harris Of Chicago, who has
made himself famous on both sides
of the Atlantic, is after the feather
weight championship, and has adopt
ed an extremely businesslike method
of advancing his claims. Abe Pollock,
acting for Harris, has deposited $500
with the sporting editor of the Chi
cago American and has challenged the
featherweights of the world to battle
at 1872 pounds, ringside. Harris chal-
lenge is directed particularly at
Young Corbett" Terry McGovern and
Benny Yanger. If Young Corbett,"
who insists that he is featherweight
champion by virture OF his defeat of
McGovern, does not accept Harris will
claim the title and be prepared to de-
fend it against all corners.
