who has license TO get into the ring

No man in the world had a harder

that he has beaten the most promis-

The ketchel fight was a poor match

Diddleweight was a spectacular fight

CLEVER NOVELTY AT
 TRAVELLERS BANQUET

A clever as we'll as a novel piece of advertising was done by the Murphy Martin Dry Goods Company at the Travellers big banquet, and which has won them a great deal of praise on every hand. At each plate as the guests were seated, was what appeared to be a miniature bottle of champagne or grape juice, but which, when taken in the hand, was found to be tiny horn with a label: Everybody Blows For Us,' with the firms name and address. 1900 pf these were furnished and it can be imagined the blowing that was done when all got at it. The little nov city was of wood, painted black, and with tinfoil around the top, added greatly to the decorations of the ban quet table

ponent, but just as theN pass under the wire, one horse sticks out it's tongue and wins the race
 This only shows how a close race can be won. The great National League race settled down in two con testants-NeW York and Chicago, with odds on" New York. Betting was in favor Of New York. but at the last game Chicago put up a strenu- ons fight won the game and the flag came west. Won at the last minute. You can do the same Keep up your game fight and at the last moment try sudden burst of energy anal watch results.
 You can win or lose al the last minute. In the Southern League the fight for the pennant lay between Nashville and New Orleans. They met in battle royal The game had settled down to one pitched ball, the batter had two strikes. if Ted Briet- enstein could make one more strike on him, New Orleans would win first place, but he let the ball slip. The batter hit out q "corker' and Briet- enstein lost the pennant for New Or leans by a slip. Now. don't have a slip at the last minute or you may lose. You have put up a game race, a good fight, and if it depends on an eyelash-finish be there with the eyelash.
 Yesterday at the big rink there was a battle royal Little Rock and Helena fought hard for next years convention of the Arkansaw Travel CTS No one could' tell where the plum would fall; both sides fought hard for it, but perseverance won for Helena. Perseverance will win for you in the popularity contest So don't give up
