LOWE BEAT SMITH

Smith of this city and Tommy Lowe of
Washington, two of the best matched 1873
pound boxers in America, met at the Broad

of the contest Lowe was surely entitled to
the decision. He was the aggressor In
four of the six rounds and was willing 10

seemed wary, of the Washington boxers
right-hand punches and failed to give as
good an exhibition as he is capable of.

land right-hand punch which would have

ond and third rounds; frequently catching
Smith with well-timed right-hand blows
for the body. Two straight left-hand
punches. which landed flush in Smiths
face, woke him up, and when the bell rang
for the fourth round he was the aggressor.
That round was an even one, In which
nearly two score. of blows were exchanges
Lowe was again the .aggressor in the
fifth round and Smith was wary. His
evasive tactics saved him. The Philadel-
phian started out in the sixth round with
a vengeance, but he was met by Lowe and
got as good as he gave. 1t was Loves
bout by good margin.

claimed. that she could not tell them
apart when a few feet distant.
The woman's remarkable claim is in
measure sustained by the fact that records
obtained through Gov. Warfields direction
show that Luery had been arrested twenty
six times in Baltimore and Philadelphia,
where he formerly lived, and that in nearly

Postmaster General Lemieux, the
governor of Canada has notified the
United States that it will not be pos
sible for the Canadian postoffice to
handle second class mail matter sent
to that country from the United
States, by either express or freight,
and mailed there. Postmaster Cen
eral Lemieux, in letter to Postmaster
Meyer, says:
"The department has come to the
conclusion that it will be absolutely
impossible to continue the re-mailing
privilege, except at the rate of post
age between the two countries; that
The Canadian second class rate is
lower than the second class rate of
this country Postmaster General
Meyer explained today that, as soon
as a specific case of refusal on the
part of the Canadian government to
handle American surplus matter was
called to his attention, he would be
forced, in the circumstances, to is
sue an order, declining to handle Can
adam publications in this country at
the second class rate.

An Editors Tin.

A wife who loves her husband will
not object to cutting his hair every
week or two instead of every two or
three months, says the editor of the
Eldorado (Kan) Republican. Any
man can learn to shave himself A
box of backing costs ten cents and
will last months. A chunk of soap,
some hot water and rag will take
the grease and dirt out of an old suit
of clothes. Most any mar can go
TO bed an hour sooner once in ten
days and have his wife or daughter
crease his pants 4 brush and a little
elbow grease will take the dust out
of ones clothes.
Flowers are thick along the streets
and it is mighty slow poke who
can't swipe a buttonhole when COM
ing down town. OF course it costs
e or IS cents week extra to have
nice clean collars and cuffs every
morning. And there you are. Af-
ter all, the difference between coming
downtown of mornings looking as if
you had slept in haymow or appear
ing as though you had just shot out
of bandbox is IS cents week, a
little soap, water and elbow grease.
Of course if your wife doesn't love
you she will kick on cutting your
hair and "ereasing your pants" but
then if she doesn't love you it is your
fault She will "tidy you up" every
morning if you are any account and
treat her right.
