ldSted eighteen ROUNDS and took a lot
of punishment before he finally went
down before the shifty Philadelphian
Since then he has had a lot of boxing
practice and is a more seasoned ath-
lete. With Billy Delaney's wise han
ding he is expected to make a much
better showing.
There was but one hitch in the sign

emembered the experience Of Jeffries
when he fought Fitzsimmons in the
city. The latter wore tape bandages
which had been placed on his hands
early in the evening OF the day he
fought and were then allowed TO set
until they were as hard as adamant
Every blow Fitzsimmons landed cut
Jeffries badly and gave him CORY ap-
pearance. 1t was to avoid repetition
of this incident that Delaney held out
for soft surgical bandages. He finally
compromised on these or kid gloves
with the fingers removed. The latter
is the protection invariably used by
O'Brien, and Delaney thought that

Dick Hyland has lost no time in set
tling down to the steady grind of
training work for his engagement with
Cyclone Thompson at Colma next Wed
nesday night. The little Californian
does his road work between Colma and
Glen Park, and he does not slight any
part of it. He alternates between run
ming and walking, which gives him
good breathing power coupled with
endurance.
Hyland is not sighting his indoor
work as he is boxing with Charley
Reilly and Rough House" Mcdonald.
The former is exceptionally clever.
while the latter is of the rushing style
of boxer. Between these two extremes
Hyland expects to get good >Sesults in
his practice with the gloves. He has
an old score to settle with Thompson
owing to the decision the latter Sc
cured over him on an alleged foul at
Los Angeles.

inside OF two hours.
The balloon Lerche, the fourth to be
sent up, was overtaken within the linn
its prescribed by the rules by Lieuten-
ant de Lacroix's automobile, north Of
Wusterhausen. The other balloons made
successful landings in the vicinity of
Wusterhausen. In the pursuit one of
the automobiles met with a serious ac-
cident. 1t ran into a tree and was
thrown into ditch. One occupant was
dangerously injured, and the chauffeur
and others were bruised. Captain Hill
debrandt, the manager of the contest,
was run over by a public automobile
and sustained slight injuries.
There are eighteen entries for the
balloon race Of Sunday next for prize
offered by Emperor William. namely,
fourteen Germans, one American, two
Belgians and one Swiss.

of his meeting with McGovern in this

NEW YORK, Dec. GA third stock
market In New York city may be the
outcome OF movement on foot among
Produce Exchange members. which the
Times today says is to come before

The project contemplates the organ

far as the plans have gone this branch
of the Produce Exchange will differ
from the Consolidated exchange in
that it will trade in stocks and will
differ from the curb market In having
an official list Of securities to which
no stocks will be admitted until after
careful investigation by the proper
authorities. There are a large num-
Der of stocks of well known industrial
corporations, chief among them the
Standard Oil Company which are not
listed on the Stock Exchange and
which are traded in only on the curb
market This market has grown to
large proportions.

order in which he says: 1.-The general
commanding is much gratified to an

Sponsor for the South-Miss jose
phine Nichols, of New Orleans, and
her mands of honor are Miss Mary
Sharp Askew, of Columbus, Miss,

showered on them by the gallant rem
nant of the armies.

Base Ball.

Ocala enjoys a. good game of ball
and If we are to have an exhibition Of
the national game this year we must
do something and help the boys out.
We should secure for them the lot
on South Third street and erect a
grand stand upon it.
Ocala has a splendid stand at the
Race course association grounds but
it is so far away that only few per-
sons would witness a game if played
there.
1t might be possible that the mem
bers of that association would consent
for it to be moved. A committee of
those interested might be appointed
to call on the members of said associa-
ton and sound them on the subject.
1t is serving no good purpose where it
