number of their friends, who es'
corted them to the home Of Mr.

charming and attractive homes In
the Ohio Valley. Here they were
given such a warm and hearty well

While the guests were viewing the
beauties of the farm, supper was
being prepared on the front lawn,
and such a glorious supper as It
was, spring chicken, sandwiches OF
all kinds, radishes, olives, pickles,
berries and cream, Ice cream, cake,
Ice milk and buttermilk. This all
looked so good that Mr.. Dunlap

taken and when finished will be

ED GRANEY TO REFEREE
THE FEATHERS BATTLE
Both Corbett and McCovern Pleased With Selec-

SAN FRANCISCO. March 3O.-Eddie
Graney was last night selected to
referee the championship battle between
Young COrbett and Terry McGovern
There was no dissenting voice in the
matter, but it took a long time to reach
the point. Sam Harris attended the con-
ference for McGovern and Young Cor
bett. supported by Harry TuthiH and
Tim McGrath. looked after his own in
terests.
When the party got down to the ques-
tion at hand, the champion opened his
remarks by saying all he wanted. was a
man Of business integrity to be the third
person in the ring. ami for that rea-
son had asked for Harry Corbett. Har-
ris was also inclined in the same Girec-
tion. but Corbett again declined to serve
They both spared for an opening
each seemingly unwilling to mention a
name that would be acceptable. Finally
Corbett suggested Graney and added
that Graney was satisfactory to him in
his recent match with HanIon and that
Graney was his first choice.
"Graney suits me-" declared Harris
and the mooted point was settled with
out further argument. Afterward Harris
said Graney had been the man in his
mind all along. but that he wished to
have the other side mention his name II

tract 10 this effect, which both signed
In explanation of this innovation Levy
said he had no idea a foul was to be
committed, but he deemed Il wise to take
every precaution and felt the move 10 be
wise one.
Corbett looked in the best of health
and spirits al the meeting and said to-
night would find him far enough +-side

Of comparative rest.
Corbett. however, will have to DO more
heavy work today to get TO weight. as
he tipped the scales at 13O last night.
Those who have watched him think he
will have TO go to Hammam to make II.
McGovern did nothing yesterday ex-
Cept to take short walk He IS about
two pounds under WEIGHT and in great
shape. 1t is expected that the betting
today will be lively, now that the referee
