The fight for the first four places,

the last day. Each box of flies turned in
by the four topnotchers changed the
standing. The race between Bedor and
knaeble was the hottest of all. Not I'M
til the last fly had been counted was it
known whether Knaeble or Bedor had
won.
Knaeble had held back thousands of
flies and fairly flooded the health office
with these "holdovers.' He turned in
eight boxes at II o'clock yesterday morn

narrow margin. Bedor turned in the
same number of boxes.

Brings Many Proposals.

BOSTON, September Miss Lena
Leavitt, a West End girl. has received
more than one hundred proposals of mar
riage. all due to her proclaiming her right
to choose for herself when it came time

dox Hebrews of allowing the parents,
with the aid of a schatchen or match

to be married.
From the proposals Miss Leavitt has
selected one, that of a young man from
WatertOwn, and they will he married in
