Fine Athletic Tournament.

Manager George Mueller, of the
Lexington Athletic and Social Club
of Baltimore, has arranged to bring
to the patrons of the fighting game
in Annapolis one of the best even is
of the kind ever witnessed here. On
Monday, December 81, he will bring
Kid Murphy, of New York, the un-
disputed bantom champion and Jimmy
Farren, of Baltimore, the l05-pound
champion of the South, who will bat
tie for the championship sand a good
purse for ten rounds to decision.
Also for a semi-windup he has match
ed Young Lenny against Young Britt,
which will prove very interesting
bout. These two matches alone should
insure some good sport and are well
worth the admission charged. Also
several good preliminaries. Manager
Mueller intends TO bring several well
known fighters here If his efforts
are properly patronized. So it is up
TO the patons of the agme whether or
not he does. This will undoubtedly
be the best event of the kind that has
ever been given here.

Gems of Poesy.

Gems Of Poesy, by Delhaye Publish
ing Company, 352 Dearborn street,
Chicago, is a new claimant for public
favor. 1t is a collection of poems by
amateur writers, whose work is con-
sidered meritorious. Among hundreds
Of gems there is one entitled ode
TO Spring by Thomspon King, son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson king,of King
George street, this city. The little
poem that is included in the Gems OF
Poesy' a collection of poems by non
professionals, is entitled Ode 20
Spring, and is as follows:
Awake fair earth, old winters gone
His reign Of frost and snow is done;
Thy time of life and loves begun
Cast of his chilly robe of death,
Draw from the South fragrant breath,
Where for so long the snow has been,
Let blade and bud, and bloom be seem
And don thy beauteous robe Of green.
All life is springing free and young
on every side we hear and see,
The pledges sweet Of things 10 bei
Nature has loosed varied tongue;
To hear is perfect bliss.
The bird calls sound above, below;
The small streams singing rs they go,
The grass blades whisper as they
grow,
No time compares with this;
In sheltered hooks the violet blows,
Giving Us promise Of the rose.
