chosen for the meetings. The Aldermanio

that Senator Armstrong will then be able
to say whether or not Joseph II. Choate

will be decided upon definitely. The first
meeting of the committee on Thursday
will be private and informal the object

TIMELY BOXING TALK.
Very Few Bouts Held Nowaday1 On the

The vinner-take- all clause In the articles
Of agreement Of the approaching contest
between Jimmy Britt and Battling Nelson

the fact that there are very few mills held
nowadays under these conditions. 1t Is
seldom that the winner gets everything In
sight. as far as the purse Is concerned. In
most every battle decided In the past fifteen
wears or 90 the loser got something for his
services; sometimes sufficient money to TIDE
him over for o rainy day. provided the en-
counter was of enough importance to At
tract large crowd. Often the sports hear
through the newspapers Of suggestions made
by prominent scrappers that they are ready
to talk shop and do business on the principle
that all the spoils are to 60 to the victorious
man. But when the hnal test comes the
terms dwindle to the old standby percentage
of o5 Der cent. to the winner and IS per cent.

The last pair who fought on an all or moth

cisco, back in 1885, Although the Quondam
sailor at the time was far from being near
the top Of the heap he was satisfied TO 70
against the great Cornishman with no pro-
vision for a losers end. Whether Sharkey
at the time believed that he possessed the
requisite ability to NOW down the lanky
fighter without much trouble Ia not clearly
known. but the fact remains that with the
aid OF Wyatt carp. the referee. and an al
