BIG NAVY PRIZEFIGHT
Six Hundred Sailors And 200 Civilians
See Bout AT CharIestOwn Navy
Ward

Six hundred sailors and fully two
hundred civilians gathered at the
Charleston, Mass, navy yard Satur-
day afternoon to witness a prize
fight between two of Uncle Sam s
sailor representatives., one from the
scout cruiser Salem and the other
from the scout cruiser Birmingham,
both of which are now stationed at
Charlestown.
The representative of the former
vessel was Joe Smiley, 1873 pounds,
while Young Wilson, 152 pounds, up
held the supremacy of the Birming-
ham. A five-round bout each of two
minutes duration as pulled off on the
pier adjacent to Dry Dock No. 2.
William Ryan, of South Boston, act
ed as referee. The purse was 81, 600,
contributed by the officers and men
of the two cruisers, although it is
said that fully $4,000 more changed
hands on the result through side
bets.
Smiley got the fight on a foul in
the fifth round. He had been fouled
previously in both the third and
fourth rounds by Wilson, and de-
spite the demand of the surgeon of
the Salem that the bout be stopped,
Smiley persisted in continuing. Com
mander Evans, of the Salem, witness
ed the fight from the deck of his ves-
sci, while many others of the officers
of the ships now at Charlestown were
spectators. Officers and men from
the Dolphin, Salem, Birmingham,

GROWING THE cATALPA TREE
viii Be Big Enough for Telephone
Poles or Fence Posts In About
Fifteen Years.

Going in for catalpa grove next
spring? These trees will grow into
telephone poles and fence posts in
about fifteen years. An acre of ground
will produce from 5000 to 1000 fence
posts. and such posts are now worth
about Is cents each. In fifteen years
they will probably bring twice as
much, as timber is becoming more
scarce every year. One year old trees
are the best to plant. Be sure they
are all healthy and come not too far
from home. Buy none but the va
riety known as "Speciosa." You will
have to pay about $40 per 1000 for
good trees.
The ground should be plowed and
put in as good condition as for corn.
The rows ought to be about eight feet
apart and perfectly straight. Use a
corn marker to set them just right.
After they get good start cut them
back nearly to the ground. Don't be
afraid to cut, as they will be all the
stronger for the pruning. On good
soil where trees are not too much
crowded they will grow from five to
seven feet the first year. Some Of the
railroads are going into catalpa grow
ing to get supply of good trees, but
there is not much danger of overdo-
ing the business.

INJURIOUS ELM-LEAF BEETLE
Prompt Action Necessary if This Pest
Is Eradlcated Before Trees Are
Damaged.

No one who has elm trees infested
with beetles should trust to natural
checks to eliminate them The trees
should be thoroughly sprayed as soon
in the season as the first sign of
beetle feeding is seen of the leaves,
and arsenate of lead at the rate Of 5
pounds in 100 gallons of water should
be applied.
1t Is important that this spraying
should be prompt and very thorough,
the object being to kill of the beetles
before they lay their eggs. For this
reason the strong mixture is advised,
that its action may be prompt and the
injury to the leaves minimized.
All beetles must feed before they
lay eggs, and there is usually period
of about two weeks between the time
when the first beetles are seen on
the leaves and the time when the first
egg mass Is noticed. Earlier spraying
Is not advised because the foliage In
creases in size so rapidly at this Pc
Rod that leaves sprayed when half
grown may be very imperfectly COW

HOUSE BURNED
The House Occupied By Geo. Freeman
Totally Destroyed By Fire
Early Monday Morning

About $50 o'clock Monday morn
ing the alarm OF fire was given and it
was soon located at the George Free
man home, second door west of the
hotel, and soon the structure was a
mass of flames By hard work nearly
all the household goods were saved.
The house belonged to G. K. Hallock
and was insured for $500. The con-
tents of the house were also insured
for small amount by Mr.. Freema n.
The latter with the family are resid-
ing for the present with their son,
FLOYD and wife. The origin of the fire
was caused by Mr.. Freeman setting
the lamp on the table when it top
pied over on the floor breaking it to
pieces and the oil penetrating thru
the floor prevented all attempts to
subdue it unavailing.

cred a week later when the beetles
feed, and the application will not be-
as effective.
Spraying against the adult beetle
rather than its larva is further urged
because the beetle eats the entire leaf
tissue and therefore gets the poison
whether it is on the upper or under
surface. The larva eats only the cells
Of the under side and scrapes to the
middle only. In consequence any leaf
not covered on the under side may
mature a dozen larvae unframed,
even though the upper surface may be
uniformly and effectively coated.
When we have large trees to deal with
the problem Of hitting the underside
Of every leaf becomes an almost i'm
possible one to solve, while merely
covering every leaf on one side or the
other is comparatively simple mat.
