WHAT A KNOCKOUT REALLY is.
1t Does Not Always Mean Being Put
TO Sleep.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Very few followers of pugilism really
know what constitutes a knockout in a
prize fight. After many important con-
tests, especially a battle for the cham
pionship, where a referee stops an en-
counter because one man has scant
chance of winning the newspapers re-
ceive queries as to whether such and
such man has been Knocked out.
Often wagers hinge on the correct an
swering of these queries, but often the
decisions do not satisfy those who de-
sire to see the questions decided.
number of excellent fistic judges
contend that man is knocked out
when he fails to come to time in the
prescribed ten seconds after being
f1oored, no matter if he is not uncon-
scious; while others say that he is not
knocked out unless he is put to sleep"
or rendered unconscious for a brief
space of time. In the recent contest
between Eddie Hanlon and Young Cor
bett the fight was stopped by Referee
Graney in the sixteenth round. AL
though Hanlon was not Unconscious
when he was prevented from contin-
uing, the mill will go on record as a
knockout for Corbett.
Jim Wdkely, Billy Elmer and Brook
Ign" Jimmy Carroll, who are in a posi-
ton to know, say that Hanlon was
knocked out and give plausible reasons
for saying so.
"All bets made on Corbett winning on
a knockout should be paid without de-
lay" said Wakely. THAT is the only
way to look at it from a betting and
fair standpoint. Graney interfered to
prevent knockout, which would surely
have happened. Perhaps Hanlon would
have been fatally hurt, too. Hanlon
was practically out, and when a man
is in that condition he is knocked out.
OF course, some folks insist that a man
has to be sent dead to the world. before
he is knocked out. That is simply abb
surd.
zone often hears the expression that
a person is knocked out when he has
exerted himself to any extent. He
may still be able to know what he
is doing, but powerless to act in the
same way as he would when in pos
session of all his faculties. 1t would
be a crying shame for any referee to
allow any game man to be beaten
into insensibility. What's the good of
that? If a man is beaten and hasn't
any show to win he ought to be CRATE

The case of NJ. Bureau reminds one
of the saying at takes ten horse deal
ers to make one picture dealer" But
it is doubtful whether the ingenuity
of fifty horse dealers combined would
surpass the ingenuity of M. bureau,
who is being tried on the charge of
having sold pictures falsely attributed
to Harpignies, Corot. Diaz and other
well-known men. There are no fewer
than 121 of these faxed" masterpieces,
and every one of them is the work of
struggling painter, NJ. Reynold, who
was commissioned to create" them at
the rate of 20 francs apiece. Let me
hasten to add that although M. Reyn-
old appears side by side with his em-
ployer in court, his innocence in the
scandal has already been established.
All he did was to paint the pictures,
which he never saw again. They
passed. into M. Bureaus keeping. They
engrossed M. Bureaus attention for
months and months. When M. Bureau
had finished with them, 10 and behold!
they were signed by famous names,
and were easily disposed of as valu-
able and veritable works of art M.
Bureaus replies to the judge are face
tious, and the judge will doubtless re-
member this when he passes sentence
next week.

more games than have ever before
been scheduled.

Mercer insures the Georgia league,

terest than in any of the other games
The Red and Black supporters are out

Mercerites even if some of the other
games are lost in the shuttle. The
Georgia championship is what Geor-
gia wants and what all here agree
she is going to win.
The schedule as arranged by Man

Anderson and Sullivan from among

The management of the football team
is busy making UP the schedule of

certain that number of strong games
will be scheduled for the Georgia
team. The Thanksgiving Day game
will be in Atlanta, and will be played
with Auburn as in the past.

not yet been selected but that matter
will be settled within the next few
days. The management now has I'M

OF these is line coach, and the. other
is hack coach. 1t may be that a
trade will be made with these two
men and again the management may
decide upon an entirely different plan.

ROBBED 6Y A HARE.

A farmer IN France recently had the
misfortune to be robbed Of no less a
sum than 76j francs (Sl5O) by a hare.
Though this sounds somewhat like a
fairy tale It Is nevertheless fact and
occurred In the following manner. The
farmer who had been to neighboring
town and sold horse for the above
named sum, was on his way home when
In passing through a vineyard he saw
fine hare which had been caught in
trap. evidently the work of some
DoacheTs. lie at once took the hare
from the trap with the intention Of
making meal of him But though lie
had caught his hare, he was far from
cooking him. The poor animal made
fiantic efforts to get free, so the farm
er drew cut his pocket handkerchief 10
tie It up He had just succeeded In
fastening one leg when the hare made
last bold bid for liberty and managed
to slip from his captor's grasp. In a
trice he was of like the wind, bearing
the handkerchief with him, and the
farmer was left lamentIng, for in a COR
ner of that handkerchief he, after the
fashion Of country folk. had tied the
notes for 765 francs which he had re-
ceived for his horse. Before he had
recovered from his surprise the hare
was. Of course. over the hills and far
