ROSELLE KNOTT.
BY PRUDENCE MANNEN.

Such a courtliness as Mr.. Grover
Cleveland has INDUCED in, in his
late article on woman's suffrage.
Every few lines he "hopes it will
not be deemed ungracious, or be-
lieves at could not be deemed dis
courteous" for him to indulge in the
view which follows.
This anxiety on the part of the
opponents of woman's suffrage, to
content the feminine gender with
Establishments, arouses the impa-
thence of women who are earnestly
occupied with the question.

Honey Melloyd of Boston, who Is

Francisco, arrived in the city yes
terday and will begin training at
the club today. He will work from
8 to p. m. Melody went on the
road this morning for a run. Yes
terday he simply walked off the
stiffness incident to riding on the
train.
Melody has not been fighting
much for the past few months.
Since he was seen here last May
he has had but one go, that with
Fitzpatrick in Chicago. 1t was a
draw in the sixth.
Melody is one of the cleverest
men who ever stepped into a ring
He, at one time, was going to try
out in the Britt and Nelson crowd
of fighters, but got heavy rapidly
and had to content himself with
the class he is now in. The first
professional fight Melody ever had
was with Martin Candle, in Colma,
Cal. Melody stated that Candle
must have hit him exactly 1899
times on the nose, but never touch
ed him hard enough to hurt. Mel
lody but Candle out in the early
part of the fight. 1t took Candle
five minutes to arrive in this world
again. Melody would not stop the
fight and told the referee to let
it go. After six or seven minutes
of rest Candle was ready to start
again and got draw out of it. Mel
lody says that fight made him.
Melody can be seen at the S. A.

Sunday, for the; next week. His

with much honor for two years, she
