II is surprising to discover what a

could be transacted. Inquiries for ba-

From a colored family in Pittsburg

Must be light colored."
From as far west as Denver and as
far south as Alabama come the re-

less the child is legally adopted it is
always under the supervision of the
organization that indentured it. Rare
ly does it happen. however, that the
child is taken away, even if it is not
legally adopted. Legal adoption is an
expensive affair for parents of moder-
ate means-the class that usually OBJ
tain the children-and the formality
of drawing up the necessary papers is
often omitted. But the founding is
to the satisfaction of it's foster par.
ents regularly adopted and treated as
such.

under the colors of the Knickerbocker

Fit2simmons had a much greater
following early in the year than he
has al the present time, as his actions
in avoiding a match with Jeffries
have caused many to weaken on him.
Fitz has stated that he has q sure
thing in whipping JEFF when they
meet, and says that despite his age
he is past 40-be will give the cham
pion the hardest fight of his life 1t
Is all well enough for old Fitz to feel
encouraged, but as things now stand
1t is a very difficult matter to figure
Bob a winner over big Jim. The
champion has natural advantage in
his favor and is almost fifteen years
younger than the Cornishman. The
majority of sporting men in America
look upon Jeffries as the pugilistic
marvel of the age. In face of these
facts one can hardly imagine Fltz-
simmons, who has already fallen be-
fore the undefeated giant, coming
back years after and whipping the
man who has laid low every heavy
weight of prominence, and that, too,
without as much as getting a mark

as the most promising candidate for
championship honors in his class that

Britt went into the fighting game
out of pure love for the sport, and left
a successful business career to follow
the fortunes of the modern arena.

two fights than any other fighter Nv

angered by the visit of one of the
state charities agents, who called to
make inquiries as to the care that vas
being taken of the child resented the
investigation, and sent back the in

That the founding never quite gives
up the hope of discovering who his

pathetic incident in the Office of Mrs.
Dunphy, the superintendent on Ran
dalls island, where the records Of
New York foundlings for the past 20
years have been kept by her.

the haunting hope that he may, after
