Abe had not then lost his cleverness, and he needed all of 1t to withstand the clever and agile Britisher. The referee called the result a draw, all though many spectators believed that Owen was entitled to the shade. In the Autumn of 1908 Moran again met AtteIl in San Francisco, and another drawn battle resulted. Frankie Neil had been clam bring for another chance at the Britisher, and Moran again defeated him in a twelve-round battle in Boston. In February, 1909, Matty Baldwin fell victim to Moran s f1stic prowess, and a little later Tom
 my Murphy, the pride of Harlem, was outpointed by Moran In a third bat tie with Frankie Neil, at New Haven. Moran got a draw decision, and early in 1910 Tommy Murphy outpointed him in d twenty-round bout in San Francisco. From that time on Mo ran went back, prosperity not agree ing with him, and a year ago last July he was knocked out by Ad Vol gast in the ''hoodoo thirteenth" in San Francisco.

THE FINAL WORD THIS YEAR.

When Brown and I got started
 Discussing the campaign, From reason soon he parted
 All argu1n ent was vain, He questioned and contended
 The platform of my side, The talking soon I ended
 told him that he lied. When Jones attacked my party
 He nearly raised the roof With criticisms hearty
 merely answered "Poof.'' He foored me in debating
 My statements he decr1ed; ended it by stating
 Succinctly, that he lied. I started in converting
 Old Green to think my was~ His statements got to hurting
 No odds what he might say, l saw he was a mossback,
 And swayed by olden pride. So, rather than to sass back,
 I simply said he lied. And so by twoS and dozens

Dear Mrs. Manz:


Dear Mrs. Manz:
In this mornings Herald an article ap-
pears entitled "Bloomers Contradictory to
the Nature of Woman" quoted from Miss
Tarbelrs American Magazine article "A
Woman and Her Raiment."
1t would be most interesting to know
Miss Tarbell'S true reasons for the an
ia gonism toward the woman question
as she puts it, which she seems 10 go out
of her way TO show.
A womans raiment varies with the
country in which she lives In this day Of
hobbIe skirts which according TO the
newspapers are the indirect cause for all
sorts of crime on the part of men, II
seems amusing to find a woman writing
about the bloomer costume which was
modesty itself in comparison with present
day costumes much too common. To
assert that, because Hiss Anthony who
wore them for a short time finally dis
carded them, it showed that it was
against the nature of woman to wear
them and that it was the soul of Miss
Anthony which she did not even recog-
nize which induced her to renounce the
costume is sentiment carried too far.
There could be nothing deeper than she
ever grasped in the woman question in
Miss Anthony's nature, for it was the
recognition of the souls of women (politi-
cal recognition) for which she worked
early and late, and her remuneration Of
the bloomer costume was a concession to
the great objection raised by men anc
