dent of victory. Leonhardt writes as
follows:
Newark, N. J. Sept. Is, 1908
81 am finishing up my training to-
day, sc that l will be in the pink of
condition for tomorlo w night. L will
give Mr.. Hansen the hardest game he
has ever had in his life. l can 90 q
faster pace than ever before and will
show the people of Perth Amboy that
l am the wrestler of old.
Sincerely yours,
"Ohas. Leonhardt,
champion middle weight Graeco-
= Roman wrestler of the world"
Hansen has returned from New York
where he has been training for the
past few days, and declares that he
never felt better and that when the
match is over, Leonhardt will not
have such a proud signature to his
name. By downing the Newark
wrestler twice Hansen will hold the
Championship of the world" and his
Perth Amboy friends will be glad to
see him have it. The preliminaries
have already been announced. They
promise to be fast and interesting.
Hans Svarre will try to down Henry
Axen two out of three times and Jor-
gen Hanson and Marinus Stocked will
have a go. The greatest interest is
in the main bout, however, and a big
crowd is expected.

did you say that l had dropped out
or public life?" asked the man who
had met with political defeat.
Il believe that form of expression
was used" replied the interviewer.
Young man, you have made a mis-
take. l have not dropped. l have as
cended to a high plane of economic
thought which the ~plodding masses
have not yet reached, But the sep
aration is only temporary. All l need
to do is to sit here and fish awhile and
let the public catch up to me."-Wash-

tunities, But He Was Still
'- Alive.

He was an elderly man, very disrep-
utable in appearance, and showing all
the signs of having been on a spree.
His niece, whom he had not seen for
some years, had come across him on
Twenty-eighth street quite by accident
and had taken him home and given him
"a square meal" He expressed his
thanks and they sat for some time talk
ing about the people they both knew
and what had become of them. The
niece, who was married, was inclined to
resent the waywardness of this partic-
ular member of her family, and at last
gave expression to her thoughts, says
the New York Times.
"Jim," she said, severely, why don't
you turn over a new leaf and be a man.
Why, if it hadn't been for drink you'd
be worth a lot of money now. You've
had lots of opportunities, but drink has
always kept you poor. And now look
what you are"
He looked at her a minute or so in si-
lence. There was a resentful CLEAN in
his eye that was half plying.
"Umph!" he murmured. Then, after
a pause: Sue, your father was a tee
totaler, wasn't he?"
Yes"
well, he's dead. I'm not!"
