Looking at the speaker. who is a
lawyer. the Archbishop said:
ut may be possible that all Of the
Ryans are rogues. but it is certain
that all of the rogues are not Ryans."

in great excitement. saying:

The little fellows eyes bulged out
with fright at the suddenness with
which the question was put. and then
he said mechanically:

George Dixon's Sad Finish.

New York, Jan. 6. The
greatest fighter of his time,
and the winner of several
hundred fstic encounters,
George Dixon, the negro pugi-
list, Familiarity called Little
Chocolate" died to-day in the
alcoholic ward of Bellevue
hospital, a victim of a long
fight with drink. Idolized in
his prime by thousands. as a
pugilistic hero, George Dixon
|rarsed away penniless and
without friends. Dixon was
81 years old and for many
years held the title of feather
weight champion.
Like jockeys champion
fighters reap the golden har-
vest of shekels when things
are coming their way, but
invariably die in ''extreme
poverty" George Dixon
fought longer, engaged in
more fights than any other
man Of his weight in the
world and met exactly the
same fnish-death from dissi-
patton and pennilessness.
Two years ago when Little
Chocolate" was stranded here
he said that he had engaged
in more than 500 fights, and
earned more than $500, 600 in
wagers aud purses during
the twenty years ne was at
the game. Dixon had a reaI
manager, Tom O'Rourke by
name, and it was this same
O'Rourke who profted by
Dlxon's willing hands. He
simply gave Dixon what he
wanted TO and Little Choco'

|clusion of the performance an
inexplicably mad rush was
made for the exits, and it
was there that the fearful and
crush occurred. The
weaker went to the ground
and were trampled to death
by the stronger. Lives were
crushed out and limbs we're
broken by the frantic people
as they struggled and fought
to make their way to the open.
There was no need of haste.
Order and calm and self con-
troll would have permitted
everybody to get out Of the

Against Local Option

Rose Valley Jan. l3, 1908.
In my view local option is
like trying to kill a snake aud
beginning at its tail. As long
as spirits are manufactured
those wanting it will get it,
even IL they have to swear to
lies TO do SO. Local option or
prohibition does not stop a
drunkard from drinking but
it stops the revenue from the
sale of it. 1t throws thou
sands Of people out of en-
ployment who make their
living in that line and there
are millions of bushels of
grain used up for that pur.
pose that must find some
other source of deposit and
those people who are now
consumers must become pro-
.ducers. What is TO become
of the surplus? They allow
it to be used as medicine.
Well, IL it is good for medi-
cine, why not allow a man to
take dose Of it at will? ]
can not favor local option.
