AN IMPORTANT
BUSINESS CHANGE
Mr.. Hardy Newton Purchases Interest
OF Partners and Succeeds to BUSH
ness Of Howell & Newton.

In another place in this paper ap-
pears a notice OF the dissolution OF
the firm OF Howell e. Newton, which
shows that Mr.. Hardy Newton is the
successor to the late firm. The firm
of Howell & Newton was composed
of Messrs. ]. Webb Howell, Hardy
Newton and Trent Newton, and was
dissolved by mutual consent, Mr..
Hardy Newton purchasing the inter.
est of the other two partners. The
transfer includes both the grocery
business and meat market.
The firm of Howell & Newton was
one of the best known and most pop
ular grocery firms that ever did bust
ness in Bryan. They were always
abreast of the times in stock. fixtures
and service, and left nothing undone
to give their patrons goods equal in
quality and service as prompt and up
to-date as is to be found in any OF
the larger cities.
The new proprietor will continue
the business along the same progress
sive lines that have been responsible
for its past success. He will abate
none OF his vigor and vigilance, and
assures his friends and the public
that his store will continue to be
headquarters for the very best of ev-
erything in the grocery line, and that
a service will be maintained that can
not be surpassed.
Mr.. J. Webb Howell, who has not
been active in the management of the
firm OF Howell & Newton, will OF
course not be affected by the change.
Mr.. Trent Newton, the other retiring
member OF the firm, has several prop
ositions under consideration, but Is
not yet ready to announce his plans
for the future.
The change became effective yes
terday, August 1, and the new pro-
prietor is now in charge. He has the
best wishes of The Eagle for a large
measure OF success.

Lewis Beats Waltz i'm Main
Bout of Hillside A. C.. ShOW

Battling Hurley's bout with Paddy
Sullivan in Brooklyn on Wednesday
night made 1t Impossible for him to
meet Billy Lewis in the main bout at
the opening show of the Hillside A
c., at Hillside Park, yesterday after
noon. An able substitute was secured
in Johnny Waltz, Of Jersey City. Al
though Lewis won, he roughed 1t
considerably, and his foul tactics at
times had him IN bad with the big
crowd that was on hand.
The bout itself furnished the most
exciting features Of the initial card.
Both mixed 1t considerably, and, al
though Waltz did the leadinL
throughout, he was outpolnted by the
local lad. The first round resembled
a wrestling match, both evidently
trying to throw the other, with the
result that the pair went down heav-
lily. Lewis, a moment later. pushed
Waltz through the ropes, but Johnny
was up in a jify. Waltz was the
aggressor In the second and had g
shade the better Of the mill at this
stage. Lewis came back In the third
administering body punches and
rights to the jaw. The lads slowed uI

The Rev. James J.. McKeever, pas

judges at the finish. The inclemency
Of the weather had no terrors for him.
He presented the prizes to the win

interesting talk on athletics. the re
suit of which will be that st. Rose is
destined to become n of the fore

Of Newark.

In justice to Wolgast, however, it
must be said that he had a slight
the best of the milling in his bout
fis narrow escape was his nwn fault
for trying to go against all the rules
Of nature and make his body stand
a hard, gruelling contest before it
was properly healed. He found out
his mistake and beat it to the farm
at Cadillac, Mich. for a long rest.
Johnny Coulon, bantamweight, was
also forced into the danger zone. He
only saved his crown the other week
owing to the fact that it was a no.
decision contest. kid" Williams, Of
Baltimore, clearly outpointed the
title-holder in a ten-round set-to. Will
liams continues on the train of Cou-
lon. and those who have seen the
Baltimore whirlwind in action be-
lieve he will wrest the title from
Coulon when they meet in a cham
pionship bout.
1t is believed the heavyweight
crown will not withstand the abu-
sive word bombs that are being cast
at it much longer. Publicity-worn,
the supports under Jack Johnson
are falling and probably never be-
fore in the history of fistiana has a
heavyweight champion been in such
unfortunate and unpopular circum-
stances.
In boxing circles, it is freely ex-
pressed that Jack johnson has
played his last card, and probably
never will be seen in a champion
ship contest. Johnson's condition of
affairs is more than a scare; in fact,
it has jeopardized the crown, which
is losing more of its highly valued
ornamental decorations with the
passing of each day.
Even though Johnson is successful
in clearing himself of the trouble
he is now experiencing in Chicago.
1t is doubtful If there is a fight pro-
moter in this country who would
stage a bout with Jack as one of the
principals. 1t is now up to the
white hopes" to engage in an elimi-
nation contest to decide the new
champion. Followers of boxing are
anxious to see men of champion
ship calibre step forward and will
willingly crown the man who is
victor with a new heavyweight tro-
phy-one that will replace the worth
less emblem of victory in Johnson's
possession, which Is considered so
worthless by heavyweight boxers
that there would be little or no
glory in gaining it at this time.
Taking it all in all, champions
have been at a discount this year..

Year Coming to Close Bad
One for Ring Champions

The featherweight championship
changing hands, narrow escapes for
the bantam and lightweight title
holder, and the heavyweight crown
J~eopardized will put the year 1912
down in the annals of boxing as a
most disastrous one to champions.
Abe Attell, a past-master of feath-
erweights, was the first to get into
trouble. He lost his crown to Johnny
Kilbane, after twenty rounds of mill
ing in which the Cleveland boy al
ways had a safe lea1. Attell has
since proved by three Indifferent
fights that he has gone back past all
hope of ever regaining the title, or
even ever figuring again in the cham
pionship ranks.
Attell was a wonderful pugilist in
his day, and it will be years, If ever,
before we see his equal in his class
again. The present crop of feather
weights would have been clam-chow-
der to Attell in his prime. He kept
his title tucked under his fist
proof belt longer than any worlds
championship of the squared arena
was eve held.
AID Wolgast, the Cadillac Cyclone"
is the latest title holder to lose, and
Willie Richie is his conquerer.
Joe Rivers kicked up a stir
in Wolgast's camp at Los
Angeles last Fourth of July, when
Rivers lost on a te~chnicality. This
was Wolgast's own fault, however,
as he agreed to fight one of the hard
est contenders in his division six
months after undergoing an opera
ton.
Wolgast managed to retain his title
through an unprecedented mixup at
the finish, in which the referee de-
clared him the winner. Immediately
after the bout the champion went to
his corner and collapsed, and every.
body who saw the fight knows that
if it hadn't been for the technicality
that gave him the decision he would
have been unable to go on.
Wolgast's Foresight.
Wolgast's foresight kept him
out of danger of losing his
sparkling headgear when he
fought Joe Mandot at New Or
leans. The popular verdict went
against the champion, and had a ref
eree's decision been allowed it is al
together reasonable to believe that
Mandot would have been granted IL.
However. before the bout Wolgast
had 1t understood that no decision
was to be given by the referee. which
eliminated championship color from
the contest.
