London. Feb. 22.-Sam Langford de-
feated Bill Lang of Australia last night
at the Olympia before crowd of 5000
enthusiastic spectators in the sixth
round of scheduled twenty round fight
for purse of $4,000.
The victory was gained on a foul,
Lang hitting Langford while he was
down. The negro had missed swing
and slipped and fell. and before he re-
gained his feet Lang punched him. The
referee promptly awarded the victory
to the negro.
Langford, although he won on foul.
had the advantage over Lang from the
out when the foul was committed. The
Australian ), had the advantage in
weight, height and reach. but the negro
was far ahead of Lang In ring gener-
alship and science, although the latter
was hailed as the hope of the white
race"
Was Beaten All the Way.
That he is but a false hope" was
clearly demonstrated. for he never had
a chance to beat the clever and shrewd
colored man. Langford laughed
through the entire bout. and was never
even pushed. He seemed to have plenty
of reserve and was just waiting to put
on the finish the spectators would
get run for their money. He showed
he knows far more about the boxing
and fighting game than the Australian.
and although smaller man. he had
no trouble in sending blow after blow
home. 1t was the opinion of che ex :
perts at the ringside that there are
dozens of white men who could have
| made a better showing against Lang
ford than the man from Australia
The winner of last nights battle has
| been practically matched to meet Jack
| Johnson for the worlds heavyweight
! title. When the men entered the ring
| there were 5000 spectators packed in
! the Olympia. Every seat had been sold
| the prices ranging from SO admission to
| $50 for box seats.

HIGH-PRICED BIBLE.

The first beck aver printed from
movable type last night in New York
brought the highest price ever paid for
any book. The prize was the Guten-
berg Bible, the purchaser, Henry Z.
Huntington. OF Los Angeles, and the
price $4,000
The purchase Was made at the sale
Of the library Of the late Robert Hoe,
the largest public auction sale of books
ever attempted. Experts have estimated
the collection to be worth more than
81 900, 600. and wealthy amateurs and
dealers from Europe have come to vie
with the American collectors in the
bidding. 1t was evident from the pro-
gress Of the sale last night that Amer.
ican bidders were taking the cream OF
the offerings at prices averaging higher
than any ever offered at public book
auction.
The highest price previously paid at
auction for the Gutenberg Bible was
so, 600, at which Bernard Quaritcl
purchased it in England fourteen years
a:o. At aprivate sale he disposed ot
it to Mr.. Hoe at a profit of $1,000
The copy was printed some time be-
tween 1450 and 1455.

DEFENDS NUDE IN sTaTUARY.


George Gray Barnard, the sculptor,
arrived in New York yesterday from
France on the steamship George Wash.
ington. He is going to make his home
in New York permanently.
Mr.. Barnard said he had completed
his groups for the Pennsylvania State
Capitol at Harrisburg.
There has been some criticism, "
he said, because these 80 figures l
have executed are nude 1t is curious
that this criticism should come from
men. while women approve Of the work
as it is. l understand that the Penn
sylvania state authorities are going to
drape them. I shall make no protest,
bit | am sorry.
''Only in the nude could I have
given adequate expression to these
figures. Drapery would have spoiled
the effect. Women have better artis-
tic sense than ran. They are inspired
by the human form, but men are not
similarly inspired. They think the
nude suggestive.
Only through delineation Of the
nude human form can great emotions

bolic figure in an overcoat and expect
it to be anything buta marble dummy.

Males i'll the Majority.

Berlin, April Il The greater pro,
portion Of males shown Ly the last I'M
pesial census is declared by many
German scientists today TO be due to
the intense desire for boy babies on
the part Of the rast majority OF German
womeu. This desire results from the
overwhelming military attitude Of the
German mind, aided greatly by the
preachmeuts ci the kaiser.
The census shows that there arc nov
only 1.Q26 females TO every 1000
males. whereas the last preceding CEN
sus showed loss females to every

Stories Of tho Paris Courts.


Among Humorous stories OF the ear-
Be- law courts it is told how Wen
KNOWN lawyer, NJ. Alem Rousseau,
was once pleading a rather tiresone
case and, noticing that the judges were
paving no attention to him, said, AS
The president L falling asleep I sus-
pend my speech" But the judge had
inst woke Up and cried, "And I sus-
pend you from pracdcins for SIX
months Nothing dacnted, the law
yer resorted, ''Well, 7 suspend myself
soreYer and ever" and, gathering up
his brief and cap, he left the court
and never appeared again.
} a Paris barrisser, N. Clery, however,
svas more vigorous. Seeing that the
president and the assessors were all
hsIeep, he stopped, and, dealing a tre-
mendous blow on the desk in front OF
him that woke everybody up with q
Start, he cried, Yesterday at this same
hour was saying And the wnole
bench rubbed their eyes and asked each
pther if they had really slept through
sweny-four hours.
! The same counsel was pleading at
Versailles on cold day and remarked
knat the Judges were all turning more
and more around toward stove that
gave out q welcome heat 1The trlbu-
nal behind which 7 have the honor OF
speaking" brought them albright about
