The Frawley prizefght law IS explicit

ire lease for one year on the building

difficult 10 believe that the Madison
Square Athletic Club held any lease on
Madison Square Garden which would
comply with the law. after the testimony
cr the clubs president that in his neso-
tiations he selected only certain open
dates. In q similar case the State Box
ing Commission refused 10 grant u
license to an Albany club. Manifestiy
the license was granted to the Madison
SQUARE Athletic Club irregularly and
Is in itself defective Nevertheless, this
club will conduct another fight in the
Garden on Friday night unless the com
mission interferes with its plans by re
vcking the license.
Governor Dix has let it be known that
he hopes for q fair trial" of the Fraw-
ley law. There can be no fair trial Of

provisions. Why he. license was grant

close to 100000. In five battles at Port
Arthur the total losses were 44,4OS.
We shall perhaps appreciate the mag
nitude of these figures the more perfect
ly If we compare them with those OF
great battles in our own war of fifty
years ago. The federal losses at Gettys-
burg. the greatest of them all, were only
23.001, or less than one-third those at
Moukden. Indeed, at Moukden the
Japanese killed were more than the
wounded at Gettysburg. At Antietam
the losses were only 12,41O: at Spottsyl-
vania, 1896 at Charlottesville. 17,2s7,
and in the Wilderness, 1866. But ow-
ing TO its duration and the greater num-
Ter Of large battles the losses in our
war reached Il larger total than In the
Russo-Japanese War.

The Governor wrote Mayor Gaynor under

chicken originating from the ''ragtme'
greeting, "Oh. you kid" received judicial
condemnation yesterday when Circuit
Judge Coolidge, handing down an opinion
in case involving Sunday amusements
at Pawpaw Lake, held that advertising in
which this phraie appeared was nothing
moro or less than "scurrlous." Nearby
people of Forest Glen Pavilion had asked
for an Injunction restraining Sunday even
ing amusements The court, in granting
the injunction, said:
THE allegation OF the defendant that he
always sought to appeal TO the best ele-
ment of society is stroke Of humor The
advertisement is low and degrading in It's
tone | regard these invitations as bid
TO the worst element OF society"

GUINEA Pigs As Lawn MOWERS

One lawn. formerly a mass Of weeds.

tho inner grasses. Another is still
under process Of treatment. The half
Of 1t In which the guinea pigs were
first set to work has been cut quite
even and very close. For golflng 1t Is
as fast again as it was under the ad-
ministration Of the moving machine.
and not a weed Is visible. The other
half, where the animals have Just been
turned loose, is a mass Of dandelions.
In this neighborhood 1t has been
found that the guinea pigs do not
suffer at all by being left to work In
winter as we'll as in summer. Indeed
they are healthier than under the
usual treatment Of those who keep
them a. pets. An astonishing demand
for tho animals has grown up in the
neighborhood, and If the inland golf
clubs. which have great difficulties
with plantains, take to the new method

cundity Of the animal suggests-Con-
