SayerS proved quite an agreeable
surprise to the fans who have been
figuring him as the owner of a snow
flake punch. His great cleverness as
boxer and ring general enabled him
to hit more clea.nly and effectively
than his opponent, and to avoid the
ferocious rushes of Cullen, and when
he cut loose in slugging bees, none oe
which he ever ran away from, he
showed to new and better advantage
He clearly outboXed Cullen all the
way, as a perusal Of the fight by
rounds will show, and when it came
to mixing 1t with Cullen he was there
like q duck. Many fans swho sat at
the ringside expected to see him gel
his block knocked off when he went
in to slug with Cullen, but were forced
to marvel at his ability as a mixer
when he came out of 1t.
Explanation of the result Is found
in the fact that Cullen, fighter, took
long chance with one of the clever
est lightweights in the business over
route that was made to order for
the boxer. Any other result than that
which obtained would be considered a
triumph of q speedy mixer over
shifty, clever ring general and those
who backed Sayer to win did so with
out much knowledge as to the ability
of Cullen as mixer, but solely rely
ing upon the well known ability of
Sayers as a fast and clever veteran
of the ring.
There was little delay between the
Fisher-Snyder scrap and the start Of
the main event, the ten-round argu.
ment between Maurice Sayers of Mil
waukee and Dick Cullen of San Fran
cisco, champion of Australia. Cullen
was first to enter the ring and was
by Willie O'Neill, Joe
Sullivan, Jim Flynn and Willie Fair
banks, his seconds. Sayers jumped
into the ring a moment later. accom-
panied by Teddy Murphy, Ad Wolgast,
Young Dougherty and George Her
berts, his seconds. After the usual
announcements and introductions, the
boys were instructed and sent on their
way. Following is the

The seventh was another hammer.
andtongs affair, with both boys doing
effective work. Webster maintained his
lead in this round by his aggressive
tactics, landing many of his wild leads
and stopping several good ones him
self, although he never failed to coun-
ter.
Danny outfought O'Neill by a mile
in the eighth and at this stage of the
battle 1t looked as If the Frisco boy
would have to score 81 knockout to
win. Danny wobbled him twice with
rights to the jaw and kept O'Neills s
head working like trip hammer with
straight lefts to the face.
The ninth almost ended it again in
favor of Webster. In this round he
administered severe beating to
O'Neill, and by putting over right
swings to the head and straight lefts
to the face, Danny took big lead
and held 1t to the gong.
As they came up for the tenth round,
O'Neill stuck out his hand to shake
with Danny, and was smashed in the
mush for his trouble. The fans did
not like this kind of business and
hooted Danny for it. O'Neill was a
tired boy at the gong, after furious
round, in which he tried to make a
round, Danny showed that he had
overlooked the handshaking stunt at
the beginning of the round by walk
ing up to O'Neill and offering his hand.
O'Neill then went to Danny's corner
and they shook hands again. The fans
cheered O'Neill and hooted Danny as
they left the ring separately.
Fisher Defeats Snyder
The semi windup attracted as much
interest from the fans as the main
event, being the second quarrel be-
tween Walter Fisher, the towheadej
San Berdoo scrapper, and Kid Snyder,
a local newsboy. These boys put up
such a rattling fight their previous
out that there was much betting at
ringside on the result. Both boys
promised before entering the ring that
there would be no question regarding
the result this time and both trained
hard to be In condition for real fight.
A few moments before the gong tapped
for the start of the fight, Announcer
Leslie informed the fans that Referee
Blake had declared off all bets because
Fisher was overweight. They were
matched to do 122 pounds at 8 O'Clock,
Snyder weighing in, while Fisher coul0
not make the weight.
The first round was tame exhibi"
tion. Snyder went on the aggressive.

away, occasionally uncovering long
enough to uppercut or hook with his
right, varying once in awhile with
left jab to the face. The round was
an even break.
Fisher warmed up bit in the Sec
ond and fought faster and more er-
fectively than in the preceding round.
He ripped In his right uppercut fre-
quentIy and kept his left working al
most constantly Snyder was after
him all the time, but could not break
through Fishers effective guard. 1t
was Fishers round.

Beauty and
Bad Breath
Cannot Go Together No Matter How a
Woman May Try to Make Them.

1t does not ma tier how beautiful i
woman may be, if she is afflicted with
bad breath she will be stunned and
pitied by men and even women will
studiously avoid her.
If any woman doubts this statement
let her make point of asking a friend
in whom she may confde a man friend
or relative. If he be honest he will tell
her that foul breath from the mouth of
a woman Will drive men from her more
rapidly than any other personal af-
Fiction.
Foul breath arouses in man disgust
and where this quality is brought into
play no amount of self-denial or rea-
soning can overcome the natural repug-
nance which comes to man when he is
in company with such a woman
What is true of bad breath in woman
is not true in so great a degree in men.
Women are look ed upon as the incar-
nation of sweetness. breeding, virtue
and refinement Foul breath will sick
en- man so that he cannot feel for
such woman companionship neces-
sary to make him desire to be in her
company.
There is absolutely no occasion for
bad breath In either men or women.
Charcoal the strongest absorbent
known, when taken into the stomach
will prevent this repugnant tendency
or affection
Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges are sold
in tremendous quantities all over Amer
lea and Canada. They cure and have
cured all forms of bad breath A single
box will convince you of this fact. One
should eat some of these lozenges after
each meal and upon retiring. You
might eat fifty of them without harm.
They are not medicine, but pure will

To use the words of the attorney general
