M'GOVERN WILL
QUIT THE STAGE
After Fighting Corbett Terry Will Start
After Liehtweieht Championship.

NEW YORK, Dec. 31-The old claim
that is so many times made, that the
stage is no place for a fighter particu-
larly if He has future battles in mind,
is now corroborated by such a shrewd
individual as Sam Harris, the manager
of Terry McGovern. Harris lays all
blame on the stage for Terry's defeat
at the hands of Young Corbett" over
year ago. He says it has made the
Brooklyn boy slow, and that to regain
his title Terry will not be seen before
the footlights again until after Jan. 1,
1904. In the meantime Terry will do
nothing but prepare himself for fights
and do nothing to earn his daily bread
but fight.
Harris says McGovern is fast gradu-
ating from his class as a featherweight
and that when he fights ''YoungCorbett'
it will probably be his last appearance
in that division. After that he will
seek the lightweight championship in a
fight with Joe Cans or the man who
may possibly hold the title when Terry
is ready to challenge for it.

Sweningson, of this city, has received
instructions to change the postoffice
from it's present central position to
one in the south end of Main street.
The reason given is that Uncle Sam
has been able to lease a building in
that location cheaper than in the pres
ent one. The announcement has pro-
duced hosts of protests from the mer-
chants, who are particularly affected
by the change. Assistant Superintend-
ent George F. Gould came to listen to
the objections, but gave no hope for
any change. If the present plans are
carried out, as all signs indicate that
they will, postal stations will be ar
ranged on Main street and the hours
