He is one of three scrappers turned ou, hy St Louis athletic clubs anu started toward the top of the feath erweight ladder.

 St Louis saw the development of the greatest featherWeight that ever held the title. Abe Atten. Abe was the greatest in speed skill. head. work and all.round ability 1T not in he retirement of AttelI. after he was beaten hy Kirk. and now St 'ouis tans expect to see the !evel- opment of another champion Me Govern is the boy.
 McGovern still lacks one of the requisites of a champion and il is for that reason that he is being sent against scrappers like Ieders McGovern is clever; he can hit and is great defensive boxer. but hs is not finished in the matter Of making attack
 McGoyern is gradually being taught 0 attack opponents and his boosters expect him to show lot of improve ment in this line when he meets Leders McGOvern's style is to feint his opponent and catch his man coming in He is boxer who does not waste many punches. He has fine judgment of distance and seldom starts a punch that does not hit the mark
 Tony Orbel manager of MCGovern. writes from St. Louis: We have all heard of Leder's awful kick, and We are not taking any chances. see that Leders says he will knock out McGoyern when they meet. He must feel pretty confident to tall! like that Well, you can bet that if he does he will surely know that he has been in a fight because the people over here in St Louis will pet that kilbane can't do that in 20 rounds. but will say that Gin cinnati has one good boy in Battling Wells, who fought over here last week and beat tough boy named Geieer"

If anything was needed to show that our so-called protective tariff is a momentous and bare-faced swim dle, it has been amply supplied by E. C. Fitch. president of the Walt ham Watch company. in his testi' mony at the tariff hearings before the House committee on Ways and Means. President Fitch ad- mitted that the Riverside movement, he most popular watch mechanism made by the Waltham company, was sold to Americans for $22 and to foreigners for $1O. The price is fixed by the company and the watch cannot be sold at lower price. II a dealer undersells their price he is blacklisted and cannot buy any more.
 Charles A. keene, the largest watch importer in the United States. ex plained to the committee how he frustrated by superior ingenuity the well-laid plans of the Waltham com pany and secured large consignments of it's watches in England. My buyer in London" testified Mir keene told the London house of the Walt ham company that certain purchase by us was for shipment to Egypt, that there we intended to make great play with the Waltham watch So suspicious were the Waltham people of Us that they watched the shipment clear down the stream and into the cargo bins. So we shipped the goods into Egypt and back again to New York and still were able to cut the Waltham price" Mir. Keene has been enjoined from en- gazing in this practice by the Walt ham company.
 Representative Rainey explained to the committee how the Waltham company, in order to prohibit the purchase of their watches for the American trade and thus prevent the American workingman from getting an American watch as cheap as an Egyptian could get it, the watches were shipped aboard without dials and having Swiss dials supplied at cost of from to 10 cents each. This cheap and transparent trick subjected them to the full operation of the existing tariff duty as parts improved or in part manufactured abroad"
 How any intelligent American can regard this iniquitous system as a | benefit to American workingmen or necessary to business prosperity is beyond human comprehension, says the Johnstown Democrat. The em- ployees of the Watch Trust are among the lowest paid workers in the United States. It is not many years since the employees of the Elgin company sent a petition to its officials, beseeching them to give them living wages. and their peti' tion was treated with contempt. Just think for a moment. The Watch Trust pays the lowest wages Tn the country; it sells watches to foreign CTS for $10 which it will not sell to Americans for less than $22. And to prevent the American from get

At that matinee -he au dience went wild over the song. It was the biggest hit of the show. But the verdict of the censors stood as law, and Sunday night and yes terday, at both performances. tho song was not heard.

 It was mildly suggested to him | that he had better not do so. and the suggestion was so mild and diplomat. ! ic that Wilson did not sing it last | night. But he declared he would | before the week was over. The 1 manager told him he had better no.

FOUND HIDDEN IN TUNNEL

They were found hidden in their tunnel two hours later by Warden Johnston.
 For much time during the last month or two the convicts must have been working in their burrow. The first attention was drawn to the place by the guard and then it was noticed that another convict was busy carrying dirt into the core oven. which is used to bake earth molds for foundry work.
 The guard questioned the working convict concerning what had become of the two other men who went into the small brick oven, and he pro fessed ignorance
