There isn't a whole lot of difference between being down and out
and being used up and all in.
Revenge is sweet-unless we have to eat our own words.
The man who doesn't believe in luck is generally the one who has
had it all his life.
Egotism is always willing to work overtime.
The fellow who always has his hand out seldom knows enough to
grasp a opportunity.
The trouble with the still, small voice of conscience is that it seems
to get suller and smaller.

PROMINENT PUG|L|STS
BOX AT STAG TONIGHT

Although going to an extra eX-
pense, Matchmaker Joseph McNulty,
of the Richmond A. c., has carded
best bouts of the year for the main
affair at the stag tonight. George
Ash, who Is reported to have beaten
Harry Ramsay, Bob Williams and
Leo Houck, and fought Al Rogers a
ten-round draw two weeks ago, will
meet Bat Weinert, who has been
making much progress in the middle
weight class. Ash halls from Phila-
delphia and Weinert is from Orange.
Both NIT artists are in tip-top con
dition just now and each expects to
add a win to his already long column.
Jim Savage, New Jerseys White
Hope, will be in Bob Weinert's cor
ner, while several notables In the
fistic world will appear in the Phila-
delphia boys corner.
The bout is the main one of the
evening and Is scheduled to go ten
rounds. Since both lads have been
fighting right along, they will no
doubt be able to last the ten rounds
so that the fans who attend the stag
are likely to see every one of the ten
rounds of fast milling in the main
go of the night.
Mike Maize, the Staten Island
lightweight champion, was originally
booked to appear in the main bout
Of the evening against the fast Willie
Howard. However, this go has been
called off. Matchmaker McNulty was
disappointed Friday afternoon to re-
ceive a telegram from Manager Jack
Finley containing the following:
''Mazie cannot box on Monday" No
explanation was given, according to
Mr.. McNulty, and the only reason
that the Richmond Clubs match
maker can give for the cancellation
of the bout by Finley is that Maize

ELEPHANT FOR
THE MAGIC CITY
CITY COMMISSIONERS OF BIR-
MINoHAM ARE IN STEW AS TO
HOW THEY ARE GOING TO CARE
FOR THEIR IMPENDING GIFT.

Some considerable admirer OF the
board of commissioners OF the city Of
Birmingham is going to present that
city with a real live elephant. The
board is not up on the care of ami
mails much as will be seen from the
following, taken from the Birming-
ham News:
The commissioners Of Birmingham
are in a state Of mind just now. de-
scribed by some as trepid and by
others as plain skittish.
The reason Is neither the citys
financial difficulty nor the possibility
of viaduct war with the railroads
Neither can any OF the three commits
sioners be described as suffering from
physical afflictions, which bring about
the uncertain sensations above men
toned. The three of them are all
there, so far as interior matters are
concerned, and none of them has eat
en- canned salmon nor anaemic oys-
tiers. so far as is known.
The trouble, according to run1or
which was percolating through the
city hall is that the commission has
learned that an elephant is about to
be wished on them and suffragettish
eIerhant at that.
The logical place for the elephant,
Of course, is the Zoo, but commission
ers who are interested in matters Of
that sort, feel very uncertain over the
prospect of caring for a female ele-
plant in these times of militant mani
festations and high cost of living.
what does an elephant, eat, any
how?" said Commissioner WeatherIy.
"An that I've ever seen one take in
is peanuts at a circus. And somehow
don't feel right about feeding an
eleP hant peanuts all the time. I think
he should have a little boiled terrapin
every now and then or some roquefort
cheese. If there's any one who knows
anything about elephantine digestion.
I wish he would drop around and hand
me an earful.''

H. d. Mercer, living in the same

five acres in cotton and has gathered
bales weighing $50 pounds each
and about 500 pounds yet to pick; he
has also gathered 200 bushels of good
corn from four acres. We are in
formed that Henry Carter, south Of
town, has gathered so to 65 bushels
of corn to the acre. While there are
many others who have made good
crops that we have no estimate on,
we think it would be to the interest
of all land investors and homeseekers
to stop at Chipley and Wausau and
look over the large tracts of good
farm land. Thousands OF acres are
for sale in this county that is as good
and productive as any now in cultiva-
ton.

hallway was placed a barrel through
which each person who gained admit
