DOUGHERTY GETS DRAW
Kenosha Fighter Met Indian Joe Gregg
In Milwaukee in Ten Round Bout
(From Tuesdays Daily.l

(From Tuesdays Daily.)
Jack Dougherty of Kenosha, and In
dian Joe Gregg, fought ten round
draw in the windup of the Green Valley
Boxing clubs show at Schlitz park in
Milwaukee, last night Dougherty
showed surprising form, and should
have been given the decision, but the
referee thought differently, and what
he said went, even though the greater
part of the spectators did not like the
verdict.
The show was the first given by the
new Milwaukee club, and in spite of
the fact that the main bout had to be
cancelled and that the weather man had
butted in and turned Schlitz park into
a swamp, the evenings entertainment
was crowned with success. The crowd
was fairly large and the battles as
rule were hard fought
Gregg and Dougherty both surprised
their followers. There was an impress
sion abroad that neither of them was
in shape for hard battle, but the way
they slashed away at each other for
ten rounds dispelled any such illusion
The first two rounds were tame.
Gregg kept within his shell and Doug
herty contented himself with standing
at a distance and trying to break
through the redskin IS guard with left
jabs and occasional right uppercuts.
There was not much execution done,
but Dougherty did nearly all the work
and established a good lead before
Gregg tore loose
The big chief let go in the third and
did some real fighting Dougherty,
however, was a little too fast for him
and used his long left and right cross
with good effect. Whenever they came
to close quarters Gregg had the better
of it, for that is the only way Joe can
fight.
The battle went along that way for
six rounds. .Dougherty pumped lefts
and rights into the Tnjun at long range
and the Injun came back hard in the
clinches. IF the bout had ended in the
sixth there would have been no question
about the decision. Dougherty had it
won by mile.
After the sixth, however, Gregg came
out of his crouch and started to force
the fighting. There was some great
walloping in the seventh. Every time
they came within striking distance
Dougherty let fly with both hands and
Gregg did likewise. AS result there
was whole lot Of execution done, and
both men showed it when the bell rang.
The eighth was Gregg's best round.
In fact it 7as the only round in which
he had clear lead. Dougherty evi-
denty believing that he had the fight
safely won, became careless and allow
ed himself to be drawn into several toe
to-toe mixups. This is a style at which
Gregg shines, and it became evident be-
fore the round was over that Dougherty
was no match for him at exchanging
wallops.
The ninth and tenth were slow, ow-
ing probably to the work the men went
through in the eighth. Neither of them
did much damage and it was about an
even break between them. Gregg IS i'm
provement in the last few rounds evi-
IDENTIFY impressed the referee more than
it did the crowd for there were few
who expected him to call the bout a
draw

A Novel Scheme In Managing
SAVINGS Banks

This is what the Wilmington Times
calls the policy of the Hyde Park Saw
ings Banks practice of investing all its
funds in Vermont. 1t says:
A novel scheme 10 banking is that of
the Lamoille County Savings Bank and
Trust Company Of Hyde Park, Vermont
in devoting its entire assets to the fos-
tering of Vermont enterprises and de-
yeloping Vermont industries. That the
scheme is safe as we'll as novel; is proved
by the fact that in the Is years since its
organization the bank has never lost
dollar on a poor note, nor has it how, so
far as is known, single piece of poor
or doubtful paper.
Commencing January 1908 this Bank
will pay 40 compounded semi-aunually
on all deposits large and small alike;
will pay taxes OH all sums up to $4,000
and will issue pass-books with 10 limits
as to times Of withdrawal or other re-
strictions or limitations save those COM
mon to all Vermont Savings Banks.
Deposits made on or before February u
will draw interest from January /, those
after February Is from April /.

a Wonderful Escape.

John Perry, switchman, had an al
most miraculous escape Monday morn
ing from being cut in two. lie was on
he station platform, which was ICY,
signaling train that was backing down
to the station. AS the train reached
the station he slipped and fell, sliding
across the track right in front OF the
approaching train, which suddenly
stopped. Had the train gone two feet
further he must have been cut in two,
"a it was the wheels of the first car
bruised his hip. He was somewhat
shaken up by the fall, but is exceedingly
thankful for his escape. lie said 1t was
horrible sight to witness those wheels
revolving 80 close to him and his agony
was so intense that he almost bit his
tongue in two, and that is giving him
great pain at present. 1t was indeed
close call.

a Celebrated Case,

Tuesd day morning the hearing before
Messrs. Plat, Taylor and Graham, Com

DYKE VS.. Grand Trunk Railway Co., to
recover damages for forest fires in 1903,
was resumed. Messrs. Stickney, Dun

plaintiff. and Young & Young and Hunt
represented the railroad The hearings
are held in the X of p. Hall, and it is
expected that they will continue for two
weeks. This case is one of considerable
magnitude, the hearings having all ready
extended about three years, and it will
not be possible to complete the taking of
evidence at the present hearing. De-
spite the dry monotoDy of the evidence
viewed as whole, there is occasionally
bit of pleasing humor. The plaintiff
as one feature of it's case, claims that
ashes from the fire made lye deposit
that was injurious to the horses hoofs
During the examination of witness, he
was asked if upon his explorations after
the fire, he saw any ashes that created q
I've, which query created a laugh.

IMPORTANT
TO HERALD SUBSCRIBERS,
New Postal Laws and Resuls-
tions are now in Force, At
feetins all Newspapers and
Subserihers.

The HERALD briefly mentioned last
week a new ruling made by the post
Office department relative 10 subscrip
tons to newspapers. In substance per-
sons owing more than one wears sub
/ ,cription cannot receive their papers
through the mail unless postage is afiix-
ed, aud the department requires the
postmaster to see that this ruling is car
ried out. Ii is therefore necessary that
| all subscribers indebted to this paper for
over one year make immediate payment
If they wish il forwarded TO their adj
dress. A non compliance imposes fine
to he paid 10y the Publisher of one cent
on each paper, or fifty-two cents year
for each subscriber. We want to EN-,
phasize the fact that this is the ruling of
the United States government, aud must
be complied with. You will see there.
fore it is impossible for us to extend in-
definite credit as heretofore. We hope
that the liberal terms We have given our
subscribers when the matter was option
al with us will now bring response and
save us additional expense and labor.
From now on subscribers will have no
reason to complain or excuse to get mad
if notified their papers will he refused by
the mails unless paid for. Generally the
failure to pay subscriptions promptly is
due rather to carelessness than inability
on the part of most subscribers, except
ing always those who do not intend TO
pay, and each paper that gives credit
has more or less of this class. We shall
send bills immediately to all subscribers
owing for the paper for over six months.
We have been willing to trust them as
loug as they asked credit, but the govern
ment now says NO, and We have no OPP
ton but to obey The date after your
name signifies to what time your paper
is paid to. Again We ask that all indeht-
ed for over one year make immediate
payment. THE HERALD.

Postmaster j. $. Sweeney desires to
call attention to the practice OF some
patrons of rural delivery of placing bose
coins in their boxes each time they de-
sire 10 dispatch letters instead of supply
ing themselves with postage in advance

undue hardship on rural carriers in re-
moving loose coins from boxes aud de-
laws them on the service OF their routes.
The postmaster, therefore, urgently re-
quests that patrons of rural delivery pro-
vide themselves aud keep on hand IA
supply OF stamps consistent with and in
advance of their needs. 1t is also very
desirable that rural patrons place in
their mail boxes small detachable curs
OF wood or tin in which to place coins,
when necessary, in purchasing supplies
of stamps.
