~ spite of favorable laws that
- should cause the sport to boom
as never before there has been a re-
markabIe scarcity of high class at
fractions at the New York boxing clubs
the past winter. For some reason or
other there has been a woeful slump
in the caliber of contests offered for
the entertainment of the fight fans Of
the metropolis Evidently there is
something radically wrong with the
manner in which the game is con-
Quoted in this neck of the woods.
1t was thought when the Frawley
bill was passed that a new era had
daWned for pugilism and that re-
vival Of the sport would follow that
would rival he good old days of the
Horton law. For a while the game did
thrive, but of late there has been
regular pUgilistic famine so far as the
stars Of the ring are concerned
Some writer's contend that interest
in boxing has Waned and point TO the
fact that a number Of the smaller clubs
have surrendered their licenses with
the explanation that there is no profit
in the promotion of the sport. But It
is noticed that whenever a, promoter
arranges a card that appeals to the
sports the attendance is limited only
by the seating capacity OF the club
This indicates that 1t is the dearth uI
good attractions that is responsible for
the seeming lack Of interest in exhibit
lions of the manly art
For example take the cards offered
the fans the coming week. At least
Is clubs have arranged programs and
of the entire lot the only match that
has any real class to it is the Bonn
barber WellS-GunbOat Smith exhibit
ton scheduled for Friday night at
Madison Square Garden. And 1 viii
not be surprised if that develops into
a One-sided affair But the fact that
one of the Ontestants-W ellS-has
shown ability Of a high order is a guar
tee that the big arena will be packed,
and at high rates of admission. New
Workers are liberal patrons of the
sport, but they want the best talent in
the market and until the promoters
take steps to improve the caliber Of the
exhibitions there is no chance for a
boom in local fistic affairs.
r Spea king Of the Wells Smith match
it looks to me from what have seen
classed. Of course there is always an
outside chance for a hard hitter Of the
Smith type to put the haymaker over,
but if Wells hasn't gone back since last
summer he shOIld have little to fear
on that score Smith relies entirely
on his swatting power to win his bat
ties and like all sluggers is forced 10
set himself in order to put the desired
heft into his punches. Against the
clever Wells his style should prove Of
little avail
Wells is probably as hard a hitter as
his opponent and his speed and clever
ness should enable him to beat Smith
to the punch. It's a sure thing that f
he hits the GunbOat as hard as he
punched Al Palzer the bout will end in
side Of a round or two. Smith cannot
stand the gaff as well as O'ROurke's
giant.

criticism lately for his failure to en-
force the rule calling for. clean breaks,
and I would advise the Bombardier to
have a heart to heart talk with both

Whilei Mcfarland had the better Of

the better showing in the final round.
Neither Of the two HghtWeights,
whose long talked Of match has caused
much interest boxed up to expectations.
Packey showed that he was the clever

Packey's nose was bleeding in the
last two rounds and his left eye was
slightly marked as he left the ring.
BrittOn did not show any marks Of his
encounter, other than a small scratch
over the bridge Of his nose.
The men weighed in under the stipu-
lated 1877 pounds at 3 o'clock, but Just
before they entered the ring, they were
weighed again. BrittOn turned the
scales at 1851 and Mcfarland at 40

BONI DE CASTELLANE
. STILL FIGHTING CASE
AGAINST ANNA GOULD

ROME. March 6.-Filippo Paceh,
counsel for Count Boni DeCastellane
in his case before the sacred Roman
rota, says that year ago the tribunal
confirmed the validity of the Castel-
lane Gould marriage, but the count,
who was the plaintiff, insisted that the
case be heard again. AS he produced
fresh evidence and proved that Anna
Gould consented to the marriage on
the condition that she should remain a
Protestant and was thus free to OBJ
tain a divorce, it was held that this
made the consent incomplete and hence
invalidated the marriage. Taking this
view Of the matter the tribunal has re-
versed It's former judgment and an
nulled the marriage.
These conflicting decisions do not
solve the case, which will be heard
again and finally decided within a year.
The third decision is likely to confirm
the second, in which case the marriage
will be definitely annulled. IT, on the
other hand, the third decision confirms
the first, then Count DeCastelane will
be entitled to appeal to a higher tribu-
nal the apostolic segenature (signatura
apostolica), which is the court of last
resort.

for consul at Dresden, SaXony, under

A strong delegation of Augustans,

Dresden is considered one of the most
desirable consulates on the list.

Mr.. Bryan will be approached on the
subject. Mr.. Andrews himself. however,

Host of Hungry
Office Seekers To
Be Filled Speedily
BY JAMES 3. NEXIN.

WASHINGTON, March IF Geor-
gia and Dixie Federal office holders
generally are deluding themselves with
the idea that they are to be permitted
to serve out their terms unmolested,
save in those cases where commissions
have only a short time yet to run, they
are sadly mistaken, and may as well
prepare to be ousted gently, but firmly,
before very long.
The Democratic faithful will be put
on guard in Georgia, and that right
speedily. There need be no misappre-
hension about It,
Democrats hereabouts are recalling
the precipitate haste in which Cleve-
land appolnteeS were summarily dis
posed OF some sixteen years ago, and
the fixed belief is that the Republicans
will get dose Of that same medicine
now.
Indeed, there is an impression abroad
that one of the reasons why Mr.. Will
son shifted responsibility direct to the
cabinet heads is that he realized the
political necessity of carrying out such
policy and his inability to head it
off. if he desired to.
There is no difficulty in vacating a
Federal office once the head of a de-
partment makes up his mind that it
needs vacating The decks are being
cleared. too. for a general all-around
vacating. Six months or less from now
will see Republican Office holders in
the South few and far between, there
is not the slightest doubt.

GeOrgians Storm
Virginia Capital
To Visit Governor

RICHMOND, VA, March 1T was
Georgia day at the Virginia capital
yesterday. At least. It looked that way.
Governor Mann had hardly buckled
down to his usual days work when a
delegation Of Boy Scouts from Dublin,
Ga, 20 strong and in charge of Scout
master George b. Fout called on him.
Despite the fact that he was hard at
work on his statement bearing on the
Allen appeal case. he received them
most cordially.
The governor told them that he had
the deepest sympathies for boys, be-
cause it had not been so very long since
he was a boy himself, even if his gray
hairs did make it appear otherwise.
While the governor was speaking, it
fell to the lot of Buford Page, one of
chair in which Judge Massie was shot
to death at Hillsville. This piece OF
furniture was brought TO Richmond for
the governors inspection several weeks
ago, as an exhibit in the Allen case
Another Georgia visitor who dropped
into the executive offices about the
same time was Rev w. T. Hunnicutt,
of Gainesville. who. like the boys. was
en- route home from the Inauguration.
He was accompanied by his son, Paul
Hunnicutt, who is a student at Ran
dolph- Macon college. near Richmond.
Later the governor received at the
executive mansion the corps of cadets
from the Georgia Military academy at
College Park. Ga.
