I think it does but as we nave hot

among the procuring causes OF lntcii-

we did so.
THE reason why poverty may cause
intemperance Is that the saloon, the
blind tiger or other liquor selling
places are no. usually located in the
districts where the rich or Well-to-do
live. but they are often nearby or IN
the midst OF abodes of the poverty
class, and tho poor as well as the rich
often yield to the temptation Of the
saloon

She said:
Quite recently our daily papers
have had somewhat to say relative to
the reported statement of Mr.. White
law Reid. ambassador to Great Brit
ain. in which he advocates the adop-
ton in this country Of the custom of
drinking q toast to our President in
the same form that Great Britain $
people drink to the health of their
King The President Of the United
States is entitled to as much good
cheer and good health as the king or
queen of any country, but We should
condemn any custom which called for
the use Of wine or other alcoholic LID
uor, and it surely would be out Of
place to drink to the health of Pres
ident Taft in alcoholic liquor since on
public occasions he has himself so
splendidly set to the young men of
this nation the example Of total alb
stincnce. Ambas sador Reid did not
suggest the kind of drink to be

OF the outlook. the speaker said:
I'VE need not be at all discouraged
by the report that the falling off in
the consumption OF liquor in 1903 and
1908 will be nearly wiped out by the
gains in the consumption during the
year 1910. Instead of losing courage
we should be all the more deeply i'm
pressed with the fact that never in the
history Of the temperance reform as
during the last months have the liu-
uor fraternity been SO desperately
alert. We should remember that com
parativcly few Of the million immi
grants who have come to our shores
during the year bring with them tenn
perance ideas and total abstinence
habits. The temperance reform has
great obstacles to overcome but we of
the w. G. 7. U. are sure of ultimate
victory

PACKY MCFARLAND ROBBED OF
DECISION OVER FREDDY WELSH

of Chicago, and Freddie Welsh, light
weight champion of England, at the
National Sporting Club, and the re-
markable scene without parallel in the
history of English fighting clubs.
A storm of criticism for both the ref
cree and Welsh has followed the fasco.
For the general opinion of the thou
sands of spectators at the contest, nine
tenths of whom We're Welsh enthusiasts
at the outset. was that Mcfarland was
plaialy robbed of a w~ell-earned victory
when the referee declared the result a
draw, Kisses, cat-calls and a regular
roar of Robbery followed the refer
ee's announcement. Welsh was hooted
until he was glad to retreat, while
cheers for the game little American
were loud and long. The great crowd,
pra itieally as a whole, believed McFar-
lane entitled tc the decision, and Eng
lish fairness triumphed over prejudice
in favor of a native son.
Mcfarland had much the better of the
bout. He led all tho way, knocking his
opponent against the ropes repeatedly,
and forcing the fighting in every round.
Welsh was a decided favorite at the
opeiting of the contest, the odds on him
beieg I to 4, but before the fight was
half over the sympathy of the crowd
was with the American boy. and the
applause was all for him. The verdict
of the referee vas received with greater
hosi ility than that registered at any
contest in recent years. hundreds who
had bet on Welsh joining in the roar of
disapproval.

no chances, for he realized that his OPP
ponsnt was a dangerous man, but he
easily had the better of every round.
He drove Welsh all about the ring, and
his ..leverness and clean, straight fight
ing proved a revelation to the crowd,
the biggest ever seen at the National
Sporting Club. AT the end of the con-
test scores of Englishmen rushed to the
front to congratulate Mcfarland and
assure him that they gave him the
credit for the victory he a earned,
ever If he had been robbed by the OFF,
cial arbiter.
1t is now generally believed that
Welsh will be forced into IN early re-
turn engagement with Mcfarland, and
that this time there will be something
like even terms Mcfarland Is the more
popular of the two in London today.
and Welsh can never regain his old
place in the admiration of the ring de-
voices until he meets Mcfarland In a
fair and square way, and wins or loses
on his merits. 1t is believed that Nc
Farland will be urged to remain here
until this return match is decided upon,
