LOST THE FIGHT ON A FOUL
Colored Man Knocked to His Knees
in the Fifth Round Surprise
to the Fans.
(By Associated Press.)

San Francisco, Cal, October 31.-
All prize fight fans were surprised
tonight to see Jimmy Britt give joe
Cans one Of the worst battles for his
life that the colored man ever had.
Although Britt lost the battle by
fouling Cans in the fifth round, every
body was unanimous In the thought
that the white boy had the best of
the fight from start to finish. Britt
lost the lightweight championship of
the world when he fouled Cans in
the fifth round. Britt had knocked
the colored man to his knees and
then Britt lost his head and gave
Cans vicious punch in the ribs.
Referee Graney at once gave the de-
cision to Cans on foul. In the
fourth round Britt knocked Cans to
the floor and gave him punch while
he was down, but Graney refused to
call it a foul. Cans entered the ring
weighing 133 pounds and was the fa-
vorite in the betting, the odds being
Z to 10. Britt showed the best form
all through the battle and convinced
his admirers that the rest he had
taken for the last year had done him
good. He seemed to be in the pink
Of condition and why he should lose
his head at critical moment can
not be explained. There seemed to
be no limit to his strength and endur-
ance. He used number Of new blows
Formerly he depended solely on his
left. but tonight he used both to a
good advantage. A large crowd wit
messed the fight

THE Y. N. REPUBLICAN CLUB
To Be Congratulated on the I'm

Monster Parade.
THE Y. N. REPUBLICAN CLUB

The biggest political gathering in
the history Of Wayne county heard
the Hon. John l.. Grilfiths speak last
evening at The Coliseum. While the
monster parade was marching east on
Main street the crowd began to
\ gather about the Coliseum and at s
o'clock North Seventh street was
blockaded by a jam Of pushing, show
ing, good natured humanity, every
man. woman and child with but one
object IN view that Of gaining adj
mittance to the bi. building. BY
S:15 every available seat was occu-
pied andsthe sislcs Ways flhe,l> The
crowd was estimated. between 5000
and 3,S00. When Jack Taggart and
his Republican glee club stepped to
the front Of the platform to sing the
first number the "Glad Hand' they
received could be heard across the
river and when the song was con-
cluded the noise had even more vol
ume. Charley Williams made a dis
tinct hit with little camapign ditty
and was encored time and again.
After the singers had started the
ball rolling Attorney Byram Robbins
president of the Young Mems Repub-
lican Club and chairman of the even
ing, introduced the speaker, Mr.. Grif-
fiths, and paid him a most glowing
tribute. Mr.. Grii1iths was greeted
with great burst of applause and
he was compelled to raise his hand
several times before quiet could be
restored. Everybody in the audience
had large chunks Of enthusiasm on
tap and every available opportunity
was seized upon to waste some of 1t.
And these opportunities were not far
apart
Mr.. Grif1iths talked little over an
hour and half and SO witty, forcible
and eloquent was his address that he
kept his listeners in breathless silence
which was broken only when the
crowd laughed at some humorous
saying or applanded some pertinent

In collars, stocks, and fancy neck
wear in general, it is truly the little
new touch that tells. 1t is oftentimes
merely the way ribbon is tied at the
neck that gives smart style to a wom-
ans dress.
A new little fashion which is already
a success is the stock which has its
ribon-ends tied in a combination four
finland knot and bow. 1t is original
and ever so pretty. The ribbon must
be a long Cne-abOut two yards are
necessary. II is brought around the
neck and tied in front in fOur-in-hand
knot. Then the two ends below the
knot are tied in a graceful bow with
quite long loops. If the ribbon is
plain. the ends may be trimmed a trifie.
They may be sprinkled with French
knots. or scattered with tiny gold but
tens. or hand-embrOidered in some
pretty little flower or some odd design;
but the newest ribbons are so lovely in
themselves this year that they require
no trimming to add to their beauty

sOmethlna Of Interst to Cooks.

A cookbook written by French per
son not knowing both countries would
be in some instances almost useless. as
the products Of France differ very
much from those of America For in
stance, a French cookbook giving
recipe for cooking a sweetbread will
give directions as to the time required
for cooking a sweetbread taken from a
French calf. But the calves being
killed in France when they are three
or four times older than when they are
killed here, the sweetbread is natural
ly much larger and viii require a long
er time for cooking. A French cook
book will direct you to cook green peas
with lettuce; and the peas being very
tender will furnish enough liquid, help
ed by the melted lettuce, to be cooked
without water. This is impossible
with peas grown here, for they are
picked too old and too large. and there
Is also something in the climate or the
soil which prevnts their being as ten
der as they are in Europe-Woman's
