as If the fight had just commenced. The

Fitzgerald had the advantage of Britt
IN helght, reach and muscular develop

Fitzgerald after the fight admitted that
the decision was just one. He said that
he injured his right hand in the second

was unable to do effective work during
the remainder of the fight. He said he

Britt said that Fitzgerald was a good

The fight was remarkable because of
the clean breakaways and sthe fairness of
the contestants. According to the agree
ment they were at liberty, to fight at all
times so long as they did not hit below
the belt and were required to protect
themselves in the clinches and mix-ups

cleanly every time at the suggestion of
the referee and there was not the slight

Britt finished the fight without a mark

new THEORY OF
ATOMIC ENERGY
Prof. Babcock, of Madison,
Makes a Discovery of
Importance.

MADISON. Wis, April 2S.-Prof. Ste
phen M. Babcock, of the chair of ag-
ricuitural chemistry and the inventor
OF the Babcock milk test, announced
tonight before a meeting of the Uni
Versity Science club, as a result of
twenty years of research, a theory of
atomic energy that is revolutionary in
the scientific world. 1t is that the
weight of any substance is effected by
the molecular changes which it under
goes, or. as Prof. Babcock stated the
law, the weight of body is inversely
proportional to it's inherent energy
This, reduced to it's logical sequence,
practically overthrows the old atomic
theory and the theory of conservation
of matter. leading irresistibly to the
idea that all atoms are primarily iden-
teal and that the difference in the
weight of the different elements is due
to the difference in their energy
This theory, according to Prof Bah
cock, would offer a satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION Of the law of gravitation
Prof. Comstock, director of the Wash
lngton observatory. said: prof Bah
cocks theory will be the most notable
contribution to science Of the last fifty
years"

HOLDING OF a CIGAR.
One of the Numerous Ways of Reading
a Mans Character.

There are many ways of determining
a mans character. From the color of
his hair, it is said, much may be learn
ed in regard to his intellectual ability;
but tobacconist of this city goes even
further, and asserts he can positively
tell a mans character from the man
ner IN which he holds his cigar
"All kinds and classes of men come
in here, and it is not in the least nee
essary for me to have actual dealings
with him to riscover what sort of men
they are said he. "In purchasing a
cigar a man usually lights it before
leaving the store, and 1 have noticed
that out of the hundreds of men who
come into my place, no two men hold
their cigars exactly alike. Here's where
l catch them, and from past study and
experience upon the subject am ready
to judge mans character just by the
way in which he holds his burning
weed. For instance: An energetic,
resolute man, a man of strength, will
firmly grasp his cigar between his
thumb and forefinger, his fingers being
rather short and stumpy; while a lazy,
irresolute man holds his cigar loosely
and between the first and second fin
gers, which is particularly noticeable
in artists musicians, actors or anyone
with an artistic temperament.
The man who is not a smoker takes
a few puffs and then stares at the weed
as if to find answer there what it is all
about. But this also suggests a mean
nature, one that is unnecessarily in
quisitive about everything and is
prompted by small spirit; never was
nor could be good fellow Then the
timid man or coward will invariably
hold the lighted end in toward the palm
and this same man will outlie Ananias

something awful for the fans. In the
