 The bell had hardly sounded when Maher rushed at Jim and with a. heavy right swing to the nose made Doherty reel around The blow had lots of steam behind it and the claret from Doherty's nose spattered around the ring. Maher lost very little time after the blow and followed his man up with another to the jaw. Do herty's legs began to wobble and he went down to the floor in a heap. Where he was counted out by the ref cree. It took several minutes after he was put out for his second to re- vive him.
 ''They do come back" yelled the crowd as Peter left the ring after the short battle.
 Peter looked aged. His hair, which was once black, was gray and a lot was gone from the front. He weigh 1 ed near the 200 mark, while Dohertv was fat and clumsy and weighed thir- Iy pounds more than Peter.

 The fire started shortly before 8 o'clock, supposedly from a lighted cigarette carelessiy thrown among a
 pile of straw in the York stable.
 Dense volumes of smoke and the ter
 rlned screams of a score of draft
 horses attracted a watchman whc
 turned In an alarm.
 Before the first fire apparatus ar rived from the city. 40 families who i've Tn the tenements, rushed into the streets. A number of thrilling rescues occurred, policemen of that district rushing recklessly into the nearest tenements which soon filled with smoke. Patrolman Johnson rescued Ihcmas Scott, his wife and four chil- dren from their smoke filled apart ments at AT Barnstable street.
 Upon the arrival of the first fire en- zines a second and third alarm were turned in. Not in years has the Bos- ton department been confronted with a lire of such intensity and stubborn ness Before the east wind embers were carried to the big lumber piles in the yards nearby.

It might be supposed there would be thousands of applicants for this sort of daily picnic in the looacco fields. but it is said to be no easy task to secure enough of them. They will come largely from the east side of Hartford, and the tobacco men have had to hunt for them. hnd1ng they got few responses | by advertising for them. The work IS not hard and is all performed un- der cover. In the topacco barns | where the freshly picked leaves are brought in boskets by the wagons from the field the young women rap idly string them up, leaf by leaf on the pieces of twine which are attach ed ed to the horizontal laths, which are then placed side by side from the top of the barn to within three feet of the ground, beginning, of course
 It is a days work for one girl to string 200 laths, but some of them can do 250 and the pay. is 66 2-3 cents per 100. As there are 4,5OO laths per acre of tobacco it will be seen that each girl will be occupied about twenty days in "stringing" an acre of -cbacco. As one girl cannot possibly string more than two acres during ne harvesting season even if begin llng work in the third week of July, t follows that the services of more han thousand women and girls will be required in the gathering of made grown tobacco in Connecticut.
