MODLIN IS A
HARD HITTER

THEIR ENCOUNTER SATURDAY
PROMISES TO BE INTERESTING.

"Modlin has the hardest punch for

said Jack Weedy. He can hit as
hard as any welterweight. l box with
him daily and some of the punches he
lands on me tell"
In their last fight Modlin caught Nc
Fadden a swing on the jaw in the
fourth round which put the little
champion to the mat for a count of
seven. If the blow had struck on
Macs point the fight would never have
ended in draw.
McFadden is so clever that Modlin
has trouble in connecting with the
Frisco lads jaw or body. In their
last encounter Modlin was the ag
gressor throughout the fight and many
accused McFadden of making a run
ming fight. BY going back the lad
from Frisco was able to land blow af-
ter blow and in all landed two to one
on Modlin.
Many people are going to take in this
show just to see the Japanese wrestlers
Some of the very best talent among
these little fellows have been secured.
An exhibition of this character should
prove highly interesting,
McFadden and Modlin will meet to-
night to choose a referee. 1t looks as
though there would be some trouble in
finding a man agreeable to both parties
Each man thinks he should have won
the last fight and each thinks he had
the worst of the deal.

MAY YOHE WILL
SEEK A DIVORCE
TIRED OF THE BONDS THAT BIND
HER TO PUTNAM BRADLEE
STRONG, WHO Is IN LONDON.

NEW YORK, January 25.-May
Yohe, who came to New York recently
to fill a vaudeville engagement, has
announced that she is seeking a di-
yorce from Putnam Bradlee Strong.
In just what manner Strong has Of
Tended remains a secret among a linn
itel and favored few, but the impress
sion, fostered by few ill-guarded
words of Miss Yohe, appears to be
that he has not supported his wife
lin the style to which she has been
accustomed" Il
At present Strong Is in London, while
his wife reclines upon a couch at
hotel here suffering from a sprained
ankle. This injury she incurred last
Thursday during a moment of reYelry
at the Terrace Garden. 1t was on this
occasion that she made known in a
loud tone she had decided to get rid
Of certain excess baggage"
Pressed for a clearer Interpretation,
she said she had instructed her at
torneys to serve Strong with prellmi-
nary papers in a divorce action she
was bringing against him in the New
York courts. No great establishment
has been felt in theatrical circles at
the news, for It was not believed pos
sible that the marriage contracted IN
the manner adopted by Miss Yohe
and Strong would prove a lasting one.

TO GRADUATE IN FEBRUARY.
Decision Regarding Naval Academy
Class of Next Year

The Secretary of the Navy has decided
that the Naval Academy class of 1906 shall
be graduated early in February of next
year. This decision is thus promptly an
nounced for the benefit of the authorities
at Annapolis to the end that the course of
the present first class may be so planned
as to provide for this premature gradua-
ton of the midshipmen in 1903. The rea-
son familiar in the last few years is again
given for this action. There continues to
be a great demand for naval officers. The
duties of the commissioned personnel in the
service are constantly increasing, and it is
desired that the young men at Annapolis
become available for duty ensigns as
early as possible. There is chance that
the class of 1906 will be the last Of the
Naval Academy classes to be graduated be-
fore July l. That class will be the last of
the smaller classes consisting of 1873 men,
bers at present. The class of 1907 has 275
members and the succeeding class will be
even larger.

Florence where he remained until the
death of his wife, and where most of his
best work was accomplished.
The following summary of Browning
character was given by Dr. Newman In
conclusion:
Browning cared little for visiting the
homes or palaces of the wealthy. He pre-
ferred the simple homes and companion
ship of those who were doing the work OF
the world. Browning welcomed every man,
sure that there was good in him. He was
always a boy, warm-hearted and demon
strative. Tennyson walked away from men
to nature. Browning walked toward them.
