NINETY Two TRIPS ARE
MADE TO The NORTH
Americas Lady Has Unusual
Record

Accompanied by her daughter, Mrs.
T. n. Hawkes., Mrs. NJ. T. Elan left
yesterday for New York upon her
usual semi-annual trip to the East
ern markets to purchase spring mil
llnery for her store here. Since 1855
Mrs Elan has made this same trip
north twice yearly, this one, therefore,
being her ninety-second tour to the
great metropolis. Counting the re-
turn trips of equal number she has
gone over the same course one hun
bred and eighty-four times The dis
lance, Americas to New York, is one
thousand miles, and this estimable
lady, therefore, has travelled $4,000
miles in going upon her annual mis-
sions, a distance in mileage sufficient
to belt the globe nearly six times.
Mrs. Elan is now quite eighty years
of age, but left yesterday for the
North as blythe and happy over the
trip as when she first began them
nearly half century ago. Upon her
initial trip in 1865 New York had a
of less than 100000. Today
Mrs Elan finds ten times that number
of busy people there

MORAN CONQUERED
IN RUNAWAY STYLE.
Fight Fans Say Packey
Needs Stiff Punch to Be
Greatest Lightweight.

NEW YORK, March 15.-f Packey
Mcfarland had a little sitter punch
New York sports would be ready to ac-
claim him today the greatest light
weight the game has known for years.
His ten-round victory over Owen
Moran, the cleverest OF England's little
men. at the Fairmont last night. was
so Clean-cut as to leave no doubt that
for stiffness, boxing, and fighting
sense" he hasn't an equal in his di-
vision. Mcfarland won easier than ex-
pected, due to an exhibition of far more
cleverness than he had before shown in
this city, rather than to any deteriora-
ton on Moran's part. In the last five
rounds the Chicago boy cut loose and
turned a fight that had been rather
close into a runaway. Moran, usually
sure shot, found Mcfarland entirely
too elusive, and his wild swings we're
answered by telling jabs from his op-
ponent.
The big crowd was convinced that
either Mcfarland or Moran is better
man than Champion Wolgast, and that
Mcfarland would probably prove the
superior of "Knockout'' Brown local
aspirant for the championship.

Convenience In Rush.
Because of the delay in getting out
1t now appears likely that motorists
in general will give up the idea Of
taking their cars in with them and
instead will bank them along the
curbs outside, where they may be
more easily moved after the game,
instead of waiting for others to move
through the comparatively limited
way to the Fifth street gate.

in the major leagues where automo-

ing his arm. He worked too hard the
first two days out.
John Henry's throwing arm Is the
wonder Of the camp. That boy pegs the
ball around the lot as If it were the
close of the season.

team: Neither Dolly Gray nor Bill
Otey can fool him a the bat.
