Fighting Dentist Again Whips
Tommy O'Keefe - This
Time Easily-in Their Ten
Round Bout at the Rink.
BY JOHN POLLOCK.

THIS has certainly been a lucky
year for Leach Cross, the night.
ing dentist. as as ne has not lost
a battle and besides II in q fair way to
add more victories to his present long
winning streak. Leach tackled another
win to his record at the st. Nicholas
A. c.. by defeating Tommy O'Keefe. the
rugged lightweight OF Philadelphia In
the main bout Of ten rounds.
This was the second time the pair
have FLASHED at the Mcmahon Broth
ers Club and while O'Keefe put up
such . great battle against "Leaohie"
In their first encounter that hundr eds
Of hGht fans thought he won. there was
no chance for such an opinion this
time. as Cross gave him such a severe
walloping from the third round to the
final that every one hailed him as Q
victor.
O'keefe started of as II he were go
Ing to annihilate Cross. He made
Leach miss repeatedly and sent In so
many punches with both hands to his
body and jaw at close quarters that
Cross seemed bewildercd. O'Keefe had
so much the better OF the first two ses-
slons that Crosss stanchest friends
and his numerous brothers began to
the third round Cross sailed into
O'Keefe and every time they would
come to close quarters he would cut
loose with short inside punches to Tom
my's stomach and an occasional right
or left hook to his jaw. taking the
steam out OF him. Had O'Keefe fought
Cross In the clinches like he did in the
first two rounds the chances are that
the result would have been different.
The bout between Jack Rowan of
Philadelphia and Jim Coffey, the dub
lin Giant" was such . burlesque that
the spectators were laughing all the
time. Rowan Is the biggest lemon that
has boxed here since the night Mike
Morrissey met Peter Maher. Rowan
was fiat on the floor more often than
he was In action and when the referee
stopped the bout In the fourth round
to save him from being knocked out
everybody was pleased.
Phil Cross. who was to have Tough,
Johnny Dohan, was In no condition to
box and Joe Motto was substituted. Do
han was too strong and too stln a
puncher for his opponent and easily had
the better OF the ten rounds fought.

3 3 Putting Up a Bluff g 3
By DOROTHY DIX.

and longed to be one of the blessed
who dwell within some domestic
Eden
We all know that a happy mar
riage is the happiest estate in the
world. but we also know that an
unhappy marriage is an earthly
purgatory. In matrimony there is
something that brings out the best
or the worst of people, and as
there is no other blessing equal to
a good husband or wife, SO there
is no other curse that compares
with bad one.
If all marriages were happy. and
if the dove of peace roasted on
every roof tree, then. indeed, old
bachelors and old maids would eX-
pire of envy, and their boasts of
contentmeut with their hollow
lots would be hollow mockcry.
Unfortunately, however, there is
nothing in the average marriage
that does anything but hold it up
as an awful warning to the unmar-
ried, and it is only the triumph
of hope over other peoples expert
ences that leads any young couple
to dare attempt the holy estate.
The old bachelor. returning from
an evening spent in the bosom of
the family of his friend Benedict.
reflects that poor old Benedict gets
a mighty poor run for his money,
and that a fretful and nagging
wife and spats and jars, and the
loss Of ones personal liberty, is
hardly an adequate return for a
man having to work like a dray
horse to support a family. There
fore, the old bachelor signs a sigh
of contentment. and says. Not for
muh," as he turns the key in his
comfortable apartment.
Nor does the old maid. when she
visits around among her married
sisters and friends, find anything
to shake her belief in the fact that
she chose the better part when she
decided to stay single. She OBJ
serves that her sister has to work
ten times as hard as she does, even
if she is a working woman and
sister is one Of the lucky ones
married to a man who supports
her And she takes note that
while she gets a pay envelope for
her work. and has money that no.
body presumes to dictate what she
shall do with. sister has never a
penny of her own. and has to so
like a beggar to her husband for
every cent. Also she has TO give
an account OF what she did with
tho quarter he save hcr week be
fore last. And likewise husband
