Macon's Talk of Pusilists.

IL Peter Maher was race horse In
stead of pugilist, he would be con-
sidered an sin and outer" without a
doubt. Sometimes he fights just like
a champion, and then again he battles
like perfect dub. When he feels at
all confident of his superiority to the
man he contests with, he is indeed an
Irish champion. He felt in this way
when he encountered Jim Jeffords,
when he met the heavyweight in
Philadelphia last week, and as a re-
suit he knocked him out in double
quick time without receiving a blow
himself in return. 1t was one of the
easiest victories Peter has ever had,
and 1t has restored to him perfect con-
fdence in his fistic powers, and he is
now willing to battle against most any
of the big fellows of the ring. He
won't have to go much longer without
match. Peter is a great favorite,
especially with the Milesian admirers
of pugilism, but he is unreliable. He
can't be depended upon to maintain
ais standing. like Peter very much,
but would admire him much more IL
he was more dependable, and would
live up better to his reputation.
think he will not long be without a
match. Gus Rubin is back in this
country again, fresh from his Euro
pean conquests. and / have no doubt
he will consider Peter choice apple
pie" for his game. Maher made but a
poor showing when he tackled Rubin
In his own town. He seemed over
matched, and he looked to be a star
dub, and not at all dangerous to man
of championship aspirations. His long
rest, however, may have changed his
form. trust 1t has.
In company with number of 9TH
ers, who are pretty good judges of
boxing, l was misled by Bob Fitzsim-
mons's aphorism that "the man with
the punch" will nine times out of ten
win in fistic contest. and knowing
that Kid Carter had "the punch"
was inclined to think that he would
defeat Tommy Ryan. overlooked the
fact that Tommy Ryan also had the
punch" and with it twice the fstic
skill Of Carter. He demonstrated most
decidedly that on Monday night when
he went around the Brooklyn pet like
a cooper around barrel. Carter made
a brave stand, but he was beaten clear
ly and most decidedly by the man with
superior pugilistic skill. 1t was won
derfully good fight, and Carter. though
beaten, was not disgraced. Ryan
clearly showed that he is worthy
wearer of the title The Middleweight
Champion of the World" And the
man who deprives him of it win be a
cuckoo indeed.-"Macon" in Cincin-
uati Enquirer.

on the stage, and no one knows this
better than does the shrewd Semitic

SO that Thompson's offer is not the
silly one 1t is sized up to be by Young

Hundreds of Dollars

ru=nd Cured.

to you for Peruna. Miss Kate Brown
A neglected cold is frequently the
cause of death
1t is more often, however, the cause
of some chronic disease.
There is not an organ in the body but
what is liable to become seriousl do
ranged by neglected cold. Diseases of
the kidneys, bladder and digestive or
gans are all frequently the result of o
neglected cold
Hundreds of dollars are spent on doc
tors and medicines trying to cure these
diseases, but until the true cause Of
them is discovered, there will be no
use in using medicine.
Dyspepsia medicine, diarrhna medi-
cine and constipation medicine is of no
good whatever when catarrh is the
cause The catarrh must be treated
The cause being removed, the derange-
ments will disappear.
Peruna cures catarrh Of the digestive
organs, the urinary organs or any OF
the internal organs.
