Tommy Burns Has d Snap
with Jack Palmer for
Championship

London, Feb. 10. Tommy Burns,
the American heavyweight pugilist,
tonight knocked out Jack Palmer Of
New Castle, the English champion,
in the fourth round OF what was
scheduled to be q 20-round contest
for the heavyweight championship.
Some two thousand persons saw
the fight. 1t was a one-sided AFFAIR
from the sound Of the first gong an
til the middle OF the fourth round,
when Palmer, on his knees. was
counted out.
The referee might have given the
decision In the first minute Of the
contest, as Palmer was q beaten man
from the moment he entered the
ring. a Rtfss
Burns climbed under the ropes
smiling and showing his customary
confidence, while Palmer displayed
great nervousness. without any
preliminaries Burns went after him
tEli , I ~ . 4, Z
and the first round had hardly begun
before the Englishman was on his
knees. He took the count twice and
during the rest Of the round was
busily engaged in covering himself.
This was repeated in each Of the 9TH
er rounds, Palmer being hopelessly
outclassed and apparently without
ability either to deliver telling blows
or to defend himself.
In the final round he was sent to
the floor several times and at last
was barely able to drag himself to
his knees, where he remained with
his elbows on the floor until after the
count Of ten had been tolled OF.

ECZEMA SEEMED iNcURABLE.
Body was Raw-Discharged from
Hospitals as Hopeless--Cuticura
Remedies Cured Him.

"From the age of three months until
fifteen years old, my son Owens life was
made intolerable by eczema in its worst
form. In spite of treatments the disease
gradually spread until nearly every part Of
his body was quite raw. He used to tear
himself dreadfully in his sleep and the
agony he went through is quite beyond
words. The regimental doctor pronounced
the case hopeless. We had him in hos
pitals four times and he was pronounced
one of the worst cases ever admitted.
From each he was discharged as incurable.
We kept trying remedy after remedy, but
had gotten almost past hoping for a cure.
Six months ago we purchased set of
Cuticura Remedies. The result was truly
marvellous and to-day he is perfectly cured.
