was not a second of idleness for either

In nearly every round Corbett. fight

an opportunity TO send home his
blows. had the better of the argu-
ment, and when finally in the eleventh
round he got the Brooklyn boy fairly
going, he never let up Oh him until
Terry sank 70 the floor a badly defeat
ed man. Corbett put McGovern down
in the first round for a count of seven
and repeated it in the second. There
was some question as to whether or not
McGovern was down at the count of
ten and for a few minutes it looked
as if there would be a free-for-all fight.
McGovern tried to get up, tried hard,
and was ON his feet an instant after
the time keeper counted him out.
George Harding, the club timekeeper,
who counted McGovern out. stated
after the fight that the blows
that knocked McGovern out were left
and right swings on the jaw and a
right uppercut on the chin.
Harding said McGovern was in a
dazed condition that when he had
counted nine he motioned him to get
up. but McGovern was too confused
TO notice, and wds unable to rise. At
the count of ten McGovern started to
rise, but it was too late. and the ref
cree awarded the fight to ''Young
Corbett.' Harding said that Nc Gov
ern was completely out. and that it
was a mercy to him that he was un-
able to get up. Corbett was strong and
ready, and had McGovern risen 10 his
feet he probably would have been Sc
~riouslv hurt. He ATTEMPTED to get on
his feet, but he was unable. Just af-
ter the ~timekeeper called ten Meow

feet. But he was an instant too late.
Referee Graney swung his hands in

over and that Corbett had retained the
championship.

TORN STAMPS NOT GOOD.
a Fact Not Generally Known TO Letter
Writers.

The Post Office Department has un-
der preparation a small book. TO be is-
sued to patrons of the postoiliee
throughout the country, which Will
contain "a great amount Of informa-
ton regarding the business Of tho post
Office which is not generally known.
The book will be, in a measure. a book
Of instru ction AS to how to { ransact
business with the post Office. One Of
the things TO be treated will be the
use of mutilated stamps on letters. II
is not generally known to users Of pos
tage ST amps that "A orr or defaced
stamp cannot be used. Persons who
have torn stamps in their possession
have been in the habit of pasting the
two pieces together and thus placing
il on a letter. This is prohibited in
the postal regulations, and the person
who use such a stamp runs the risk Of
not having bis or her letter delivered.
Sometimes the STAMPS are so well re-
paired that the tear escapes detection.
but should the rent in the stamp be
found by the postal officials il is of no
value. The book will also contain in
formation regarding the registry and
money order systems.
