AT the March meeting Of the Arts and
Crafts on Monday famous presses was
the topic. Georgs. Northrup discussed the
work Of the Kelmscott- and Doves press;
Mrs. A. e. Helmick, the Mosher; Miss
Harriet Mcdonald, the Vale, and Mrs.
Holbrook, the Philosopher. The society
has already begun work on plans for the
biennial arts and crafts exhibition to be
held in the fall. T
Minneapolis architects and art societies
have received requests from the Ameri-
can Institute Of Architecture to lend their
influence in protesting against the pro-
posed plans Of the government to place
the new building for the department Of
agriculture where it encroaches on the
land that the plan for identifying Wash
ington had designed for a great mall.
The plan Is that Of George Washington
and the French engineer, L'enfant, which
has been approved by the architectural
societies and individual architects as
worthy Of a great capital and which they
desire to see carried out. AS a part of
the work of completing this famous orig
fDal plan, the Pennsylvania railroad has
been induced to yacate its interfering
property, and now the government pro-
poses to undo the value=ef, this conces-
sion by4permanently defeating the plan.

Claim, the Iron Man, of Chester. Both
men put up a good fight, but Devine

three occasions had McClan on his knees.
The fighting was cautious from start

paid TO body blows both fighters trying
for the jaw. Matters were pretty well
ovcnod up during the first and second
rounds, but in the third Devlne began
TO force matters. and on two different oc-
casions had McClain on his knees. He
landed some ugly blows on McClain's
jaw. McCmin was the aggressor I'm the
fourth and for time had Devine on
the run. but in the hfth and sixth De-
vine landed on his opponents jaw at FREE
quent intervals. and at the beginning of
the sixth left his trade mark over Nc
Claims eye which caused the blood to
trlcke down his face.
There were three preliminary bouts The
first was between Kid Dickson. of Phila-
delphia and Jack Dorman of Philadelphia.
This was TO have been n six-round bout.
but the fight was stopped in the third by
Referee Lew Bailey, as Dickson was beat

TO rain blows ON his jaw

Bob White. colored, of Franl1ford, and
at the end of six rounds Wright was in
a groggy condition.

list OF victories to his credit As is his
usual custom Allen prior to the opening
of the first round knelt i'm his corner and
offered up a brief prayer. This created
a mild sensation among the sports.
While Allen put up "A game fight he
soon began to show the effects of the
blows which Henry landed on his jaw.
