During 1903 he took part in a dozen short bouts, his opponents i'm cIuding Tommy Murphy, the fighting Irishman from Harlem, who also was then at the beginning of his career.

DORE SACRED PICTURES
Soon to be Brought Here and Present.
 ed to the R. c. Church.

New York, Oct. 14-If the plans of IgnGra1 T9nt4ad Rfomine9t Pfo Catholics in the celebrated collection of sacred pie lures by Gustave Dore will soon be brought to this country and for maIly presented to the Church. The Dore gallery and is owned by a Liverpool merchant It is understood that Cardinal Gibbons has been chosen to represent the Church at the cere- mony of presentation.
 There are forty-one oil paintings. drawings and etchings in the collect ion, which is valued at $2OO, 900.
 The chief characteristics of the paintings are dignity and impressive ness. united with originality and fertility of imagination which were so distinguished a feature of the. artists power. While delighting the eye with their richness of coloring skill in the pictures appeal no less to the men, tai qualities of the spectator in the grandeur and sublimity of their con- ception- They constitute an undying Sess an enduring appeal to what lies deepest in the feelings of men.
 It is by reason of this appeal" in the pictures that Cardinal Gibbons is the logical prelate to receive the gift. He is widely known for his advocacy of religious symbols and ceremonies, in support of which he has written in his F'Discourses and Sermons:'
 'fThe Catholic church, with that wis dom which is the fruit of age and experience, as well as of guidance of the Holy Spirit has intimate knowl- edge of hmuan nature. She knows that an abstract religion is not only inadequate to our wants, but it is impossible. It must be embodied in some forms, and must have some outward expression; for, we are men, not angels She knows that we have a body as well as soul; therefore, she appeals to the whole man. She speaks not only to our in- tel1ect, but also to our ina agfnation and senses, to feelings and emo tofonal nature. She bids all the facul- ties of our soul and all the powers of our body to unite in one grand chorus of praise and adoration to our God and Saviour
 Part of the collection was exhibited in New York, Chicago and Philadel- | phia about fourteen years ago and att l tracted great interest. A strong ef- l fort was made to purchase one Of the most important pictures and keep it l here, but without success

 RACE WITH DEATH FAILS

Fatal injuries were sustained by Maurice Dunn, the year old daugh- ter of MT. and Mrs Fenton Dunn, who was yesterday afternoon precipi- tated three stories to theground below by the breaking of a hammock cord on the back porch of her home.
 The beautiful golden haired child was being joyodlsly swung to and fro by girlish companions on the third floor of the three family house and in the heighth of glee demanded that the children exert more effort and swing her higher. As the hammock swung outward over the protecting balcony there was a snapping sound, followed by horror stricken cries as her form The dull thud caused by terrific inn pact with the earth, caused neighbore to hasten to their windows, among them being the mother of the injured girl. Her agonizing cries brought inn mediate aid and the prostrate form was tenderly carried to a bed within There phone found fatal injuries had been sustained about the head. Without waiting for a stretcher he gathered the insensate body in his arms and litter of chairs and aWe-stricken spec tators haStened to the am nbu1ance be- low. In an almost forlorn hope that surgical aid might save a, life, AInb1- lance Driver Jack McGirr began a race against death such as is seldom seen upon the East Side. With steady ing wheel with his left hand, his right sounding a constant warning upon the siren horn, he drove the mighty motor to it's utmost. When admitted to Bridgeport hospital the child still lived, but though every effort was made to sustain the vital spark, her head had been so crushed that she steadily SanR and died at 7:04.
 Permission for the removal of thel body was later granted by Medical Examiner S. M. Garlick.

American music-lovers welcome with open arms the return to these shores 1 of Mrs. Wilhelm stengel: known to fame as MarcelIa Sembrich, who is scheduled to begin in Toronto today a tour that will extend to the Pacific Coast and back again, including most of the important cities of Canada and the United States, Mime.

The fifty-four years that have elapsed since the birth of the Polish singer
 in Lomberg, Austria, have touched her
 lightly, and she might easily pass for
 twenty years younger:
 The last year has been one of the
 most noteworthy in the career of the
 singer and her European successes

 1t was in Athens, the artistic center of the ancient world, that Mime. Sem brich began her career.

A vExATIoUs ALARM CLOCK.

There may be more girls in Bridge port who detest alarm clocks, but there is in particular-living in a fashionable sCourtland street lodging 11ouse,-whose little HAngora'' is par ticularly rampant on the mere mention of them. And thereby hangs a tale
 The young lady is pretty and as such her company is much sought by the opposite sex. She evidently has one preferred, Romeo as she nightly awaits anxiously in her third floor room the telephone simmons in the hall below In the second-story, front lives a bachelor whose matutinal call is daily announced by an alarm set at 6:3O a m. and possibly by design this is usually reset so it will finish at 6: 30 p. m. with length and tone of sound corresponding with that of the telephone.
 Its effect has been to frequently and falsely summon the waiting EJu1iet' to the unsounding instrument below only to receive the jibes of her fellow Iodgers Though her goat is loose she still wonders if it can be a coin cfdence, or purposely contrived by the bachelor in the second floor front.
